Steps in Reorganization Plan Now Under Way Are Dis- Campaign Drive THE CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR A large number of men and- women are interested in the their hearts they are glad it is being reorganized along the most modern lines. They are well dis- posed towards the plan proposed by the American City, Bureau. They want to hear more about it. They are asking themselves: “Why does Bismarck need any civic-commercial organization?” “What can a modern Commer- cial Club do for Bismarck?” “Who is going to run the Com- mercial Club?” “How is the Commercial Club going to be financed?” “Is the Commercial Club going to be permanent?” Through the courtesy of The Tribune, these five questions will be discussed, one each day, in these columns. In the first place, why does Bis- marck need a Commercial Club any- way? Because every city needs o lto do the things which the munici- | to help the municipal officials do the things that should be done for the town. Every city needs|an organiza- tion of this kind. That is proven the fact that 3,000 or more cities in} the country are maintaining such or- ganidations. Better still, the fact that Bismarck herself has Been trying to maintain a Commercial Club | for} some years past shows the need of one in Bismarck. If the city did noz need jt, its most earnest and sincere j workers would not have tried te]! maintain one. | The Commercial Club in modern form, and that is what Bismarck is getting ,unites the best thought of} ifte Community and translates that | ought into action. It takes in all classes and creeds, gets the opinions of individuals, cf groups ‘and the mass and having found what the city needs, opens the way- to securing them. This is called creating the spirit of enterprise. Once a city ob- tains this spirit, it will never allow it to die out. The modern Commer- cial Club, with its efficient way of doing things, so divides the work that no man needs give a lot of time to Commercial Club activities, and what time he does give, is so prolific of result that enthusiasm is cussed by Leaders in the: Commercial Club.

The women were arraigned murder charges yesterday and held without bail but the preliminary hearing was postponed ten ‘days while ;the police and coroner’s office con- tinued investigations. 1 According to the authorities there have been ten mysterious, deaths or cases of illness from poison among former husbands, relatives and friends of Mrs. Klimek, while Mrs. Koulik is held as a suspect in five alleged poisonings. Detectives turned to matrimonial agencies and: undertakers parlors when they were unable to trace the life of Mrs. Klimek during a period in which, police say, she was known as “Mrs. Meyers.” The search of rec- ords was started in an effort to lear if there was a “Mr. Meyers.” A third woman questioned in con- nection with the investigation was released, She was Mrs. Cornelia Ko- zal, a sister of Mrs. Koulik.’ Coroner's physicians have been analyzing organs of two former hus- bands and @ cousin of Mrs. Klimek and permits were issued yesterday to exhume three,;more bodies, those of two children and a grandchild of Mrs. Koulik.

Usually the: totals sre almost exactly the,same in’ an{ election, since both are at the head of the ballot, or local interest makes | the total vote on the office of gov- | ernor larger. : Revised totals today showed: 2,085 nrecincts, Frazier, 100,667; O’Connor, 92,152; Frazier’s majority, 8,515; :2,- 081 precincts, Nestos, 107,977; Lemke, | | 76.961; Nestos’ majority, 31,016, The interpretation of the vote is given differently in political circles. } There is a difference of 39,531 be-! tween the majority of Nestos and ithe minority of O’Connor, and Nes- ‘os received 15,825 votes more than O'Connor received. The vote of | Governor Nestos was 7,300 more than ; the vote received by Frazier, although the few missing precincts will in crease the Frazier total. | ~ What Is Cause? Was the vote a silent ‘protest over Lemke’s nomination, or was it silent grief over McCumber’s defeat, or did many of those who supporter Gover- uor Nestos also support Frazier for other political reasons? The differ- ence between the majority of Nestos and the minority of O’Connor appears too large to ascribe to the fact that |, many voted a straight ticket, in view | of the fact that Mr, O'Connor's vote is about 16,000 less than he Tropined for governor two years ago. It been charged by opponents that. | | i { defeat could not account for more than 5,000 votes and some. I, V. A. } leaders declared that this feeling re- geted in O'Connor's favor. While Lemke’s nomination was held unpop- ular and was in the individual col- «mn the name “Nonpartisan league’ was with his name, and there are many who declare he received more votes ‘than they thought he would re- ceive; in other words, that the dis- satisfaction over his nomination was less than they ‘anticipated it would be.

The ‘clean-up. of the few missing tural precincts on the supreme court judgeship today showed that with but | 23 precincts missing Judge Nuessle had a lead of 1,800 over Seth Rich- 2rdson, which asured the election ot Judge Nuessle by at Ieast 1,500 ma- tority.

Among the oddities of the clection) is that the voters of Grant county} jgave Governor Nestos and William Lemke each exactly the same number! of votes for governor, the number for, each being 1,233. CHARGES DISCRIMINATION. St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 14.—The po- litical uphpaval in Minnesota a week ago is due te a large extent to the alleged discriminatory attitude to- ward Minnesota co-operative live- stock shippers by Henry Wallace, secretary of agriculture, R. A. Wil- kinson, representative of Washington county, said today. Mr. Wilkinson charged that Mr. Wallace showed —digcrimination in} favoring the exchange when he put} into effect federal rulings which gov-| erned the weighing, selling commis- | sion and the general manipulation of | | the South St, Paul live stock mar-; ket. The more than 400 of the ¢o-oper- ative livestock shipper associatioons according to Representative Wilkin-| son, worked almost as a unit to de- feat the Washington administration and this resulted in the election of | Henrik Shipstead over Senator Frank} B, Kellogg. Representative Wilkinson charac- terized Mr. Wallace’s action andj} stand in the South St. Paul, matters as “bull-headed” attitude. ‘He fur-} ther stated that unless this attitude| is changed Minnesota can look for al xepetition of the ‘upheaval in the elections of 1924. , HIT BOTTOM > (By. the Associated Press) Madison, Wis., Nov. 14.—Prices | paid potato growers hit the bottom today at 15 cents a bushel in some sections of Wisconsin, the state de- partment of markets reports.

Repressive power has been granted to the gov- ernment by the Irish parliament, but the Republicans have never be- lieved these powers would be fully exercised, and so their forecasts have been, for the most part, accurate. The free state government has 80,000 troops fully equipped and costing nearly $8,000,000 a year. Yet the attacks of the irregulars are made in confidence to escape and with the thought that even if they are caught they will suffer nothing more than detentidn in prison. ARREST MRS.

In 373 constituencies the fight ‘will be a duel between candidates of two parties. In 242 other constituen- cies, the battle is complicated by the presence of three or more. con- testants. Some newspapers publish esti- 'mates of how they believe the vari- gus parties will rank when the voters thave had their way, but none of the ‘forecasters express great confidence lin their own claims.

F. Ladd declares ed to North Dakota papers, “Viewing the election results frora a-national’ standpoint and the speci- {fic registering of public opinion, there is little out of the whole situ- ation ‘for the leaders of either tho Deniocratic or Republican parties, to obtain much satisfaction,” he de- clared., “It. was simply-a rising up the continuation of the present\eco- nomic order and condition of things. Wherever the voters had a fair op- | Portunity to clearly register their opinion there was a clear-cut disap- proval of the Harding administra- tion and an emphatic stand against Wilsonism.” Senator Ladd says that in Ohio the people had a chance to pass on both Harding and Wilson, and de- | ; feated a personal friend of President Harding for governor and defeated, Senator Pomerene, a friend of Ex- president Wilson. He declared the Lodge vote in Massachusetts was an anti-Harding vote, that the vote against Hitchcock in Nebraska was anti-Wilson, that Reed’s victory in Missouri was a clear-cut victory over Wilsonism that Poindexter, was beaten in Washington because he had been too regular under the Harding administration, and Brookhart in Towa defeated ‘the Wilson candidate | for Benator. Of Minnesota he says: “In Minne- sota the’ people also tired of being bapgied about and took a terrific |waNop at both Harding and Wilson. {They elected their own man, Ship- stead.

It is certainly encouraging to see how te- naciously the farmers fought all these years. No cause had supporters more brave, earnest and devoted than those who espoused the cause of the agriculturists of North Dakota, They have fought, from conviction an with all the zeal that conviction in- spires. Their ‘contests have been wa- ged under great embarrassments and against terrible odds, with open hos- tility from the Democratic organiza- tion national and state and the fail- ure of the Republican national or- ganization to lend moral or financial support. Fheir program has met with such signal success that their sister states of Minnesota, Iowa, Wiscon- sin, Nebraska, Michigan, Montana, Washington, California, Wyoming, have joined hands with the farmers movement. Their cause has prosper- ed most where their program has been longest discussed among the people. During the next two years it will be studied all over the nation and thousands who are now luke- warm will become militant support- ers.” e He congratulated Governor Fra- zier, declared that “Mr. Townley and Mr. Lemke will always occupy a prominent place in the future history of the country as the pioneers in this QUAK ALLIES TO HOLD CONFERENCE PRELIMINARY TO.LAUSANNE; in a review of the election, forward-+, PRICE FIVE CEN ‘NEW QUAKE AT LASERENA WORKS HAVOC Town of Carrizal Consisting Of Underground Dwellings Has Disappeared DEATH LIST MOUNTING Full Details of Disaster tq Chile Will Not be Known For Some Time (By the Associated Press) Santiago, Nov. 14.—Re- ports of banditry and dis- order in the earthquake district together with news of additional earth shocks and indications that the calamity has reached appalling propor- tions caused the Chilean government today to con- sider the advisability of sending troops. to Coqu- imbo and Atacama to re- inforce the regular garri- sons which are too small to cope with the situation and aid in releif work.

(By the Associated Press) Santiago, Chile, Nov. 14—Chile was again visited by earth shocks late last night. Severe tremors were felt at La Serena, capital of the province of Coquimbo, at 11 o'clock and half an hour earlier the seaport Consti- tucion, capital of the province of Maule, was shaken, according to ad vices received here by the Nationni Telegraph. ' The town of Carrizal, consisti: mostly of underground dwellings ar::! copper mines, is reported to have dis appeared, but no mention of the loss of lives is made. The inhabitants number about 200 and there are 350 other persons living at the port of Carrizal. Advices from Antofagasta at 9:30 last night said a strong earth shock had just. been felt at Taltal, a sea port of several thousand population only a few miles from Antofagasta. Laserena was one of the cities se- verely stricken by the earthquake of last Saturday morning, which took a toll of morg than 1,500 lives in va- rious parts of Chile, The extent of casualties and prop- erty damage wrought by the tremors and tidal waves three days ago has not yet been fully learned as com- munication lines still are out of or- der, in many regions. The mayor of Antofagasta has re- ceived a message from the Mayor of Vicuna, giving the first news of the effect of the earthquake in that vil-| lage. There was no loss of life in Vicuna, the mayor said,! but public buisdings, churches and the tele- graph office were badly damaged. The commercial quarter is in ruins and so are the schools. soho and public buildings at Paiguano are also in ruins and neign- boring villages in the province of Coquimbo have been greatly damag- ed. The Pacific ocean seems not yet to have recovered its equilibrum as the result of last week’s terrific disturo- ances, or else there have been some new movements under the occan lcd.
