WORK DENIES KNOWLEDGE OF RAIL CONTRACT Will Investigate Charge Made By Senator Wheeler on Stump, He Says this being mandatory on petition of There were 641 signatures on petitions, the delegation spokesmen announced. Whether this was 26 percent they could not say. They asked that the beird order the mat- ter on the ballot. The delegation was told that the board would have the petitions checked. Since the order for printing ballots for the election has gone in, it is doubtful if the work could be com- pleted in time for a vote. Spokes- men for the delegation were insist- ant that for the good of the county the matter should be put to a vote, so that an agent might be obtained. PUBLIC LAND SALE WILL BE HELD IN CITY Remaining Lands on Devils Lake Reservation Of- fered For Sale Generally Accepted Now That There Will Be a General Election Called London, Oct. 7.—In anticipa- tion of a general election, the labor party appealed for a cam- paign fund of 12,000 pounds. Premier McDonald headed the list of contributors, donating 100 pounds.. Business leaders have fought the election on the grounds that confusion which would hurt commerce would re- sult. Nevertheless an election apparently is inevitable and many predict it will be held Nov. 8. London, Oct. ing with ever increasing momentum toward a general election, which all the party leaders do not tire in pro- fessing the country does not desire, but for which they are assidiously preparing. Crisis This Week It looked Jast night as if a crisis might mature as early as Wednes- ay of this week. Every political speech delivered nowadays is an el- ection manifesto, and Premier Mac- Donald himself, contrary to custom, is giving to the press interviews in which he accuses the liberal leaders of forcing an election on the country on unjustifiable grounds. Apparently convinced that the liberals are determined to force the | situation, the ministers are disposed }to meet the challenge immediately, without waiting for defeat on ¢he Russian treaty at the end of the month. Washington, Oct. 7.—Secretary Works denied knowledge today of the “secret contract” between J, P. Mor- gan’s Alaskan steamship company and the government-owned Alaskan railroad, fixing freight rates between the two concerns, on joint shipments, which last night was made the basis of a campaign speech by Senator Wheeler, independent vice-president- ial candidate. “In the first place,” Mr. Works said, “the Senator is talking about transactions which occurred in the Interior Department before I entered the office. Secondly you can be sure that I never wrote any letter asking that anything be kept secret.” The Secretary said he was conduct- ing an investigation to find if there was any such contract. He also said that if it had existed a copy would have been given Senator LaFollette when the latter asked information regarding Alaskan contracts.
