Sorlie form- ally launched his campaign for re- election in an address here last night. In his speech, which he character- » tized as his “report as.chairman of the board of directors of the public serv- ice corporation, the state of North Dakota,” Sorlie averréed that the in- dustrial progrtm has totaled $27,- 069,510.77 despite a loss by the state mill and elevator of $825,311.62 up to January 1, 1926, These figures, he sald, do not in- clude alleged losses charged to the Bank of North Dakota. Of these he said: “The losses which have been charged to the Bank of North Dakota are indefinite losses, estimated on ac- count of redeposits in closed banks and lands acquired through fore- .closure of loans made by the rural credit department of the bank. In 1925 the bank succeeded in selling 6,744 acres of these lands end realized a profit on these sales after all cipal, interest and taxes were pai Detailed Profits The profit credited to state indus-! tries, the executive said, foots up as follows: Prison twine $800,000 bonding department $185,000: hail insurance department, §26,000,- 000; fire and tornado- insurance de- partment $688,000; workmen's com- , pensation bureau $211,822.29, a ‘total ‘profit from these five enterprises of $27,894,88: , From this figure he deducted the : 2 charged as losses to the state mill and elevater and arrived at net profit figures of $27,069,510.77. Some of the profits were represented as actual cash on hand by the vari- ous state departments. Most of the leged profits, however, were listed savings to the people because of reduced cost of various services, par- ticularly hail insurance.

ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE HAS NEVER PAID A CONGRESSMAN FOR INTRODUCING OR CHAMPIONING A BILL, WHEELER STATES League’s General Counsel Makes Statement in Defend-| ing Propriety of Paying’ Members of Congress For Speeches in Favor of Pro-| hibition Washington, June 1—()—Défend- ing the proprfety of paying mem- bers of congress for speeches favor- ing prohibition, Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel. of: the Anti-s league, in a statement published to- day, said his organization never had | paid a senator or representative for introducing 6r championing ‘a bill. His statement was issued in reply to one made.publie by R Tinkham, Republican, Massachusetts: neing that he intended to in- juce a resolution today providi an investigation by a speci: committee to ascertain wheth ntative Cramton, in, or other membe ceived money or fees from the ‘Antic saloon league or any other erganiza- tion interested in legislation pend- ing before congress.” for ous Paid for Speeches Holding that a member of congress ho has ability enough so that the people want. to hear him should not be stopped from this service simply because he is a public official, Wheeler asserted that “when a con- gressman makes a speech for prohi- bition; his expenses and sometimes an honorarium is paid by the organ- ization-that arranged for Representative Tinkham’s charge that the head of the league's “pro- fessional’ lobby has admitted that $2,500,000 was spent in one year and $100,000 in a_ single congressional election,” brought from Wheeler the statement that “Tinkham’s hallucina- tions about the league spending two and a half million dollars in politics in a year is nonsense.” That was the total spent “for all purposes in the height of the campaign for ratifi- cation,” ve went on, “and most of it ‘was spent for educational work.” The -he countered, Win Pennsyl- alone, raised over one million dollars a year to control and corrupt hh itics of the state in the saloon ge.

Byrne acted on the advice of the attorney general's office which held that the law with regard to the fil- ing of nominating petitions had not been complied with: As a result doubt- existed today as to whether or not the names of any Democratic candidates will ap- pear on the primary ballot June 30 and a court fight was in prospect. A package containing the Demo- cratic petitions was delivered at the secretary's office this morning. In- vestigation showed it had been de- livered at the capitol building by an |, express company Saturday but that capitol employes had failed to de- liver it to Byrne's office. To Hold Conference In an informad opinion given at\a conference, members of the attorney general's staff advised Byrne that it would be illegal for him to file the petition Byrne immediately got in touch with Judge Samuel Nuchols, Bismarck, prospective Democratic candidate for attorney general, and a conference will be held this after- "ender the law, the attorney gen- eral’s office told Byrne, petitions must be filed with the secretary of e in his office at the ‘speeified time.

The package containing the peti. tions was sent from Watford City, McKenzie county, by F. F. Burchard, Grand Forks, Democratic convention endorsee for senator. Burchard had general charge of the work of cir- culating and filing the petitions of other candidates endorsed by the Democrats at the Valley City conven- tion on April 10. An insufficient number of names were sent in on the petitions cir- culated for Halvor Halvorson, Minot, Burchard’s prospective opponent for the Democratic senatorial nomina- tion.

The claims, for genuine optimism in North Dakota, put forth by the association, are based on a survey of. the state and a study of precipitation figures compiled for jociation by Orris W.

Bartlett, Blue Lake township constable, to life im- prisonment for the murder of August Krubaech, his daughter Janet and her fiance, Wilinm Franke, killed by a bomb Thursday. Judge Vander- werp expressed regret that the state law does not provide for capital pun- ishment, “You should be sentenced to death,” Judge Vanderwerp said, “but it i useless for me to talk to you. May be in later ears, you will “realize something of the dustardly crime you have sommltina, The sentence is that you be confined in the state house of correction at Marquette for the rest of your life.” Wore Army Utiform Bartlett was jSecretly arraigned shortly after 8 o'clock’ thi: morning and then was taken into circuit court. The prisoner wore his old army uni- form, being a world war veteran. Judge Vanderwerp talked with him in private a few minutes and then imposed sentence.

He “was im- mediately started on hig trip to Mar- quette. f The arraignment and _ sentence came so eurly that the crowds that it had been feared might make trou- ble, because of tha strong feeling peainat Bartlett, had hardly begun to form.
