OlsLY LEAGUE PARTY S3 N SOUTH DAKOTA

Ohioans To Vote on Levy

For 1921 School Expenses A letter has been received from C. 'r Ooblentz, superintendent of the Jefferson township centralized schools, Preble county, O., in which he writes that on Tuesday, Auk. 10. nearly 2,000 school districts in Ohio will vote on special levies for meeting the running expenses of the schools next year. lie continues: "These elections have been made necessary because of the new school revenue law which reduces from five mills to three mills the maximum local levy 'that local boards of .education may levy for school purposes. Additional funds can only be secured by submitting to the voters the proposition ot increasing the levy. The increased cost in school administration, as in all other enterprises has been so great, that it 1.3 absolutely necessary that the schools of our state have this levy increased which can not now exceed three mills.'' Over a dozen school districts in Preble county. 0., must vote on Tuesday, under the new revenue law.

(F.y Associated Press) MITCHELL, S. D., Aug. 7 South Dakota is the only state in the Union having what is called a Nonpartisan League Party, according to O. S. Evans

of this city, head of the Nonpartisan League Party, of South Dakota, as well as of the Nonpartisan League in this state. Mr. Evans is secretary and manager of the South Dakota Nonpartisan League and was elected state chairman of the Nonpartisan League Party at the March primary election. "The two organizations are distinctly separate," according to Mr. Evans. "The Nonpartisan League of South Dakota is merely the state branch of the original organization, while the

Nonpartisan League Party is the standard under which the state and

congressional ticket will be presented

to the voters at the November election.

"In other states where the Nonpar

tisan League has been organized the

Leaguers have endorsed the candidates of other parties. In North Dakota, for instance, they endorsed the Republican candidates while in Minnesota they divided the Republican and the Farmer Labor candidates. But in

South Dakota they found it to their advantage and liking to support the candidates of no other party and the formation of the Nonpartisan League Party of this state was the result. A complete state and congressional ticket "will be placed before the voters of this state under the name 'South Dakota Nonpartisan League Party' at the November election." None of the present candidates for president of the United States has been endorsed by the League Party of

this state, Mr. Evans said. It has been announced that Parley P. Christensen, standard bearer of the Farm Labor Party, will enter this state August 2.1 cn a speechmaking tour in behalf of his candidacy. His itinerary calls for a speech in each district of the state and League Party representatives will be present at each of these addresses. At the end of Mr. Christensen's tour the Nonpartisan League Party of South Dakota will decide whether it is to endorse or reject the Farmer-Labor platform which its delegation at the Farmer-Labor convention in Chicago subscribed to, and whether or not the party shall endorse and support the FarmeivLabor nominee for president. Each ot Christensen's meetings will be considered a district conference of the League Party, Mr. Evans announced.

IMTERURBANS PLEAD FOR FARE INCREASES TO 3.6 GENTS A MILE

Twenty-three Indiana electric lnter-

urban lines, Including those operating in Wayne county, Friday forwarded to

the publio service commission at In

dianapolis, a petition for rate in

creases which will give them a sched

ule of rates to correspond with the

Increases recently granted the steam railroads by the interstate commerce commission.

The petition is presented by every

electric line in the state except one. The one exception is the short line operated between West Baden and French Lick by Thomas Taggart. The electric lines request a basic rate of 3.6 cents a mile as a maximum for all passenger fares, a 20 per cent increase on excess baggage, cream and milk rates and an increase on com

mutation and special rates in the same ratio as the increase granted on regular passenger fares. Allege Increased Price. The petition stated that the increased rates are necessary because of the increased cost of fuel, labor, materials, taxes and insurance. Five interurban companies recently received an increase in passenger fares from 2 cents to 3 cents a mile and five other companies have petitions tor similar increases on file. The others which have signed the petition for the latest increase are now receiv

ing 2 cents a mile.

Hearings are also pending on applications of the roads for an Increase in freight rates to the same schedule as granted the steam roads. These applications were filed some time ago. The announcement that the electric railways would ask an increase up to the schedule granted by the interstate commerce commission came as a surprise. Attitude of Commission. E. I. Lewis, chairman of the commission, announced just after the award of the interstate commerce commission was made that the commission would not consider future railroad cases on tho basis of any previous awards made by other commissions, but only on the showings made by the individual companies.

(Continued from Page One) ues, "it has been decided immediately to organize vigorous action against the plan of brigandage directed against the Russian revolution which may again set fire to the whole of Europe. Germany Wants a Force. Dr. Geoppert, head of the German peace commission, delivered to the French foreign office yesterday a note

relative to the organization of a special German military force in East

Prussia, The Berlin government, ac cording to this morning's papers, an

nounced that armed groups would be

formed in that province out of fear of the BolsheVikl and that "in the interests of public order" the government is obliged to take a hand in the organization of this militia. This note presented by Dr. Geoppert further recalls the request recently made to the council of ambassadors for permission to send German government troops Into the plebiscite territory at Marlenwerder and Allen-

stein. Editorial opinion professes to see In this note an attempt by Germany to take advantage of the situation to violate the Versailles treaty. "Everything," cays the Petit Parislen, "shows that an imposing force will be ready at the German-Polish frontier to hold up the hands of the Bolshevik advance guards." JOHANNESBURG, East Prussia, Aug. 6 (By the A. P. Polish) Scant sympathy is given Polish refugees who

have fled across the German frontier

before the advancing Bolshevik!. They are greeted with more or less contempt by the inhabitants of East Prussia as they plod along the roads to tha interior, apparently fearing the Bolshevik! are close behind them. Most of the refugees are poor women and ragged children and while the correspondent was watching a party of them today, a German said to the correspondent: "You know they are Poles. We do not want them; nobody wants them." On the other hand, Russians reaching here apparently need no sympathy, they being usually well dressed and educated.

LONDON, Aug. 17. Premiers Lloyd

ueorge and Millerand of Great Britain and France will meet at Hythe tomorrow. It is expected. that by that time the Soviet government will have answered a telegram that M. Kameneff, one of the chiefs of the Soviet dele

gation in this city, sent to Moscow, after a long conference with Premier Lloyd George and other government officials yesterday. It seems certain that there will not be an Immediate break in the nego tiations between the allies and the Soviet government, and it is believed the French and British premiers may

hare before them propositions from Moscow which may assist them Id dealing with the serious situation confronting Poland. , CRACOW, Poland, Aug. 7. Fortynine women's civic organizations, having a membership of 100,000, were merged into a woman's national serv

ice society here, and offered their services to the American Red Cross for emergency work. CZESTOCHOWA, Poland, Aug. 7. Religious fervor has been aroused against the Bolshevikl advance into Poland. Streams of refugees have reached this city and pudpose to climb the high hill outside the city limits to worship at the ancient shrine of

Yasna Gora, Poland's patron saint, and pray for that country's deliverance.

Those in jail are Russell Shepperd, Fred Bemmer, Edward Bemmer, all of Muncie and James Martin of Winchester. They were arrested at the

fair grounds at Muncie, after bein traced to that city by Jack Knecht, proprietor, and Dale Fisher, a clerU in the store.
