"No matter how big Nebraska's quota Is the experience of the Htato committee indicates that It will bo taken. Tho very real so rlous problem In the Intorest of the commorce, of the coulitry, Is to lmvo the subscription well distributed among tho people." E. F. Folda, secretary of tho stato committee, "said: "It Ih absolutely es sential that tho bonds bo gonerally distributed. The banks have proven that tboy aro behind tho government to the limit, but banking assets must bo held liquid so that tho banker In overy community can take caro of the business of bis depositors and bor rowers, because It will bo necessary to create a credit that you can loan to your government.

Townloy, national president of tho Non-PartlBan League by officers of tho United States gov ernment, charged with conspiracy to Influence American citizens to not on iist In tho war against Gorniany. It Is not probable that tho government would risk an arrest without sufficient ovldonco to sustain Its charges. Tho Non-Partlsan League was or ganized a few years ago In North Dakota by this man Townloy and a fow associates, and last year cleaned up ovorythlng politically worth whilo In that Btato. Townloy appears to have boon something of an adventurer, and has rccontly gono through tho bankruptcy court with liabilities of about one-third of a million as against assets amounting to only llvo hundred dollars. It Is not believed that In tho be ginning tho Non-Partlsan League was intondod to bo an non-patriotic or ganization, but there is a lurking and growing suspicion that it has boon seized upon by German propagandists with tho intention of using it to crcato a Borloii3 diversion in tho farming stato of tho middle west, and that its purposo furthorhas boon to draw Into its organization pro-German farmers. A careful scrunlty of the member ship In Nebraska, so far as tho same is known, shows tho presonco of many v.'oll lntenlloned farmers whoso pa triotism and loyalty aro not question ed, but appears to be Just as true that it bus drawn almost to a man upon those who aro In sympathy with Gorniany, and not in sympathy with America in this war. This may bo moroly circumstantial, but It Is nover-tlio-loss significant. Tho speech that brought Sonator LaFollotto Into disrepute was mado at St. Paul upon tho Invitation of tho Non-Partlsan League Tho result was that LaFollotto was everywhere and at once branded 'traitor," and tho or ganization that sponsored him ha been undor suspicion, with occasional Investigations by tho national and stato councils of defense of parties charged with disloyal or unpatriotic Bontlinonts. Thoso oxprosslons bavo howovor as a rulo been carefully guurded and 'members have generally boon very reticent rogardlng tho Leaguo's affairs. It Is known that tho I. W.
