MONDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1920.” PRICE FIVE CENTS UNEMPLOYED IN LONDON STRIVE TQ SEE PREMIER Several Hurt in Disorders Which Occurred in Connection with Coal Strike | GOVERNMENT TO PARLEY Announces It is Ready -to Nego- tiate—General Strike is Feared by Some London, Oct. 18.—Disorders occurr- ed in Whitehall this afternoon in connection with the coal miners’ strike during a demonstration by un- employed men, who had sent a delega- tion to Premier Lloyd George in Downing street. Several persons were injured in attempts to break through a police cordon and others were hurt when some stoneworks fell from + window on the treasury building. The country ‘awaited anxiously a report from a meeting of the council of transport: workers, which includes more than 20 unions covering the dockers, the bus. and tram workers, the commercial road transport men and the coal trimmers at the ports. The council, however after a private meeting adjourned until tomorrow. without announcing its policy. Ready to Negotiate Meanwhile J. H. Thomas, John R. Clynes and other prominent labor leaders ar@ urging moderation and compromise while the goyernment let it be known it was ready to negotiate. Two other meetings, which might have a vital effect on the situation, were to be held today. One was a conference between the transport workers’ execfitives and the national union of railway men’s executives. » General Strike Sugested While the national leaders as 1 whole are saying little there are some who have declared in favor of a sym- pathetic strike, notably in Scotland and in Wales. The new! of the fact that while the strike is completely effective fhere are consid- erable séctions of the miners who entered it half-heartedly and only. be; cause they were ordered to do so. ad With the shipping, steel and iron in- dustries already hard hit many thou- sands of men are out of work today in various sections and it seems cer- tain by the end of the week that the total will be. many, scores of thou- sands unemployed. All available sup- plies-of coal have been placed under government cgntrol. LEAGUE FIGHT ON O'CONNOR STRIKES BACK If He Was Wrong Seth Rich- ardson, League Supreme Court | Candidate Also Wrong The most frequent assault made on J. F. T. O'Connor, fusion candidate tor Governor, by the Townley news- | papers is that he represented in cer-j tain litigation in the federal courts aj{ farmers’ elevator, company, which chal- lenged certain provisions of the state| grain grading act. O’Connor, in the! course of business, brought this ac-} tion on behalf of his client, not in an the federal act or the state act was in force. | If O'Connor should be defeated for; Governor for appearing as attorney; ascertain whether or not at that time! | | for a farmers’ elevator under these} circumstances, what should bd done to Seth Richardson, Townley candidate for the supreme bench, who appeared | on behalf of the insurance compa- nies in Womberg vs. National Union Fire Insurance company? tion was presented to the supreme court of the state within thirty days. | and Richardson appeared on behalf of the insurance companies in an at-j tempt to prevent a large number of farmers in the state from collecting insurance for which they had paid. In 1913 a “reactionary” legislature enacted a statute, Section 4902 of the laws of 1913, which provided that 24 hours after an application was re- ceived, an insurance company was compelled to make good all losses. The intention of this act was to pro- tect the farmers, and the only persons who could possibly suffer were the in- surance companies. Yet, Richardson, league candidate fof judge, attempted in this action to prevent a farmer from collecting $1,254 loss, which occurred five days after his application had been exe- cuted. Richardson set up the contention that the law was so drastic and un- reasonable as to be unconstitutional, in that it interfered with the freedom of contract, and the due process clauses of the state and federal con- stitution. He further contended that since the company had its principal office in another state, to bind’ them 24 hours after the application was exe- cuted was unreasonable. From this same argument, an insurance com- pany in London might wait until all danger of hail was over and then elect to reject all-the policies where there had been losses, it was contended by opposing attorneys. If O’Connor should be defeated be- cause he tested a state statute for a farmers’ elevator, what should be done with Richardson, who attempted to have declared unconstitutional a law intended to protect all classes of peo- ple who have insurance? apers are making much | This litiga-| Wife Says They Did, But Insur- 000 Claim, Pending Investiga- tion of Their Fate—Some Say; They Still are in Hiding. | | (N. E. A. Stait Special) Eau Claire, Wis., Oc. 18—Do the charred bones of Edward J. Sail- stad, wealthy Eau Claire manufac- and confidante, Dorothy Anderson, 22, lie scattered in the gray ashes of hi Nebagamon Lake summer cottage? Or, are the two alive and in hiding? Dissatisfied with the evidences of Sailstad’s death, insurance companies refuse to pay Mrs. Sailstad $60,000. Authorities are combing the nation for trace of the pair and searching every graveyard in Douglas county on the theory that perhaps the hum relics found in the ruins of Sailstad’s cottage were rifled from some grave. At first there was no doubt that Saiistad and’ the girl had perished in the fire. Z They left Duluth, Minn., for Ne- bagamon Lake on the night of Au- gust 26. Before the dawn of the next ,morning the cottage at the lake was found in flames. ‘lhe fire spread and burned to the ground three other cot- tages. Find Seraps of Bone In the ashes were found scraps of bone and Sailstad’s watch with the hands welded by the, heat to the dial and marking 11 o’clock. , Little by little bits of evidence which seemed to suggest a contrary theory came to light., John Ellison, who had a cottage next door to Sailstad’s, showed quite conclusively that the fire smouldered in the upper story of the house for DID WEALTHY MANUFACTURER AND ance Company Holds up $60,-! ‘turer, and of his pretty stenographer | hours before it broke forth.

He identified their pictures. Seen Near Cemetery Witnesses have said that they saw Sailstad leaving the cemetery near the lake with a box under his arm District Attorney A. McKay is taking steps to examine the grave of the husband of Mrs. Alice McPhee; who died 14 months ago. Authorities in: timate they have reason to believe the grave was tampered with. Sailstad was well known in this portion of the state, and his strange disappearance has aroused great in- terest and brought to common know- ledge a shore of facts toncerning his intimacy with Miss Anderson which might otherwise have remained secret. Sailstad’s wife, Mrs. Leona Sail- stad, without hiding her knowledge of Sailstad’s close acquaintanceship with Miss Anderson, holds fast, she says, to the belief that he is dead and is making effort to compel the insurance companies to satisfy her $60,000 claim. U.§, HELP FOR FARMERS ASKED OF BOARD FAILS Manager of Agricultural Organ- ization Sets Forth His Plan Washington, Oct. 18. — Declaring that “someone must finance this year’s crop,” George P. Hampton, managing director of the Farmers Na- ‘tional council, today wrote the fed- eral reserve board suggesting that in event the board definitely decides against making an effort to gef its members to discount farm paper and | warehouse receipts, the government borrow money and deposit it in na- tional banks to be loaned to farmers at not more, than 1 per cent in ex- cess of the rate the government paid. Farmers thus would be able, Mr. | Hampton said, to hold at least a part {of their crop until they can get cost | of production plus @ reasonable profit or until there is an effective con- sumption demand. Either the primary . producer or those who are seeking to get controi jof farm products and who are able to get credits from some source must {finance the crop, the letter said. ! “The men seeking to corner agri- cultural products will not reduce the price at which they sell crops any sooner than they have to,” Mr. Hamp- ton declared. “The law of supply and demand will be unavailing in case these horders n obtain an embargo on important importations on farm products in crude conditions as it is intimated they intend ‘to do.” STRIKE AFFECTS MARKET Chicago, Oct. 18.—Opinions that the British coal miners’ strike meant delay and curtailment of export busi- nes had a depressing effect on the wheat market. Fall in British ex- change rates were counted so as 4 bearish factor. In general commis sion houses took to the selling side. Opening prices, which ranged from 1 to 3 1-4 cents ower, -were follow- ed by a material further setback, an] then something of a rally.

A QUESTION Justice Robinson Doesn’t See Why Voters Should Become ® Confused with Ballot / Charges that concerted efforts are| being made to defraud the Nonparti- | | sau league in the pre tion of bal- jlots were made by William Lemke, acting as attorney for the league, be- fore the supreme court today. Lemke was before the court asking an injunction agaist the printing of a four-column’ballét. His opening re- marks constituted matter not contain- ed in his complaint, being charges of ; Various acts not mentionedy Lemke was well launched‘on a poli- tical speech. when he was interrupted by Justice Robinson, who asked that] sample ballots be shown the court ag/ the best evidence of whether or any there was any evident plan to mislead league voters. i Justice Robinson, after looking at the ballots, said he didn’t see why any voter should get mixed up as, he pointed out, the word “Nonpartisan league” i$ after the name of each in- dependent league candidate. i Leaguers Marked Lemke’s objection was that ballots printed for some county auditors con-} tain but three columns-—one for the Republicans, in which are most of the league candidates, another for the Democrats and a third headed Indi- vidual Nominations in which, ar ated by heavy lines, are bracketed five i presidential elector candi- ates and the: Nonpartisan League in- dependent candidates for state offices. Some county auditors or®red} fa four-column ballot in which the relative position of the candidates is not changed. Lemke said this was all right. A stant Attorney-General E. B. Cox, who appeared for the county au- |ditors and secretary of state, in an- swer to the question of Justice Bron- ‘son, said, that in his opinion the four- column ballot. was. illegal, which the league wants, but that he would not object ‘because the matter was not at sue. Lemke pointed to the little group Jof Debs. electors at the top of the column, krust at Deb: “Debs is in the penitentiary, and there are thousands of voters who would’ see those electors and wouldn’t vote for anyone in the column,” con- tended Lemke. But he added: “I’m not criticing Debs or anyone for him.” Justice Robinson suggested that! under the law each independent can- didate may designate his principles in five words, and that the league inde- jpendent candidates had chosen the words, “Nonpartisan league.” These appear in heavy black type, under each name. Many anti-Townley and Townley jleaders who have seen both ballots cannot see‘Lemke’s objection. It is just. as easy, perhaps easier, they think, for a league voter fo pick his icandidates on the independent ticket jon the three-column ballot as on the four column ballot. In Burleigh {county the four-column ballot, which Lemke wants, is used. Lemke also said that since the ques- tion was raised he understood that one printing firm, at the direction of a county auditor, was printing four- column ballots. ) Totten Affidavit Lemke read an affidavit by G. A. Totten, Jr., of the publicity depart- ment of the league, in which he charged that in Golden Valley county; the name of the league independent candidates for the ‘legislature were left off the ballot, that one man was left off in the counties of Stark, M Lean and Adams. He charged this was done fraudulently. Mr: Cox referring to this, said that he uld not say anything about it nce it was not material to the sub- ject before the court and that he had never heard of it before presentation | to court but that: “since I realize and know the man who made the affidavit il put vi little stock in it.” | Mr. Cox pointed out that the law provided that any political party which did not get five per cent. of the votes cast was not entitled to a party column on the ballot. The socialist party disappeared after the Nonpar- tisan came in power, and reappeared this fall only as to presidential elec tors. | Justice Grace suggested that some, electors might have a hard time pick- ing out the league candidates. Cox answered that he thought it} was an insult to the intelligence of the voters of North Dakota to say that. they were not able to run down the, columns and pick out the candidates | ithey wished to vote for. | Justice Robinson inquired as to the; cost of printing the ballots over. It is; probable that it would cost thousands of dollars to do this & —% | WEATHER REPORT | os For twenty-four hours ending at noon , ~ October 18 Temperature at 7 a. m. - 41 , Highest yesterday eek i i Lowest yester 42 | Lowest last nv 36 Precipitation .. - None Highest wind velocity 18-E Forecast | For North Dakota: Probably rain | tonight and Tuesday; cooler Tues-| day and in the extreme west por- tion tonight.

The court was asked to hear the complaint of the Nonpartisan league that the three-column bal- lot being printed for use in some counties js illegal, and that a four-column ballot should be us- ed. At the outset Justice Chris- tianson raised the question of his right to sit in the case. “Tam a candida this elec- tion,” said the chief justice. “TI do not wish to shirk any respons- ibility—my business is to serve on this bench, but the question may be raised in your minds as to whether T am entitled to sit inthis case.” 4 Mi.
