Third Party Will
l>e In National
(By The Associated Press)
New York Nov. 9, — A
third party ticket will be plac
ed in the field by eight or nine
states in 1936. John Bosch of
Minneapolis, vice-president
of the Farmer’s Holiday As
sociation, said today.
Bosch said that this farm
political revolt from both of
the old parties, is rapidly tak
ing form in Wisconsin, Min
nesota, parts of Iowa, North
and South Dakota, Colorado,
Montana, Washington and to
some extent, California.
He stated: “There definite
ly will be a third party form
ed in 1936 with a national
program. Whether to have a
national ticket is still an open
question. It’s still a question
of strategy whether the third
party will enter the presiden
tial campaign, or whether it
would concentrate on congres
sional candidates.
A national ticket, Bosch
said, would serve as the chief
purpose of registering oppo
sition to the major parties,
but whether such a ticket
could command candidates
sufficiently strong to draw a
vote, is still considered pro
blematical.

(By The Associated Press)
Lethbridge, Alberta, Nov.
9, — Harassed by herds of
antelopes in southern Alber
ta, ranchers are wondering
what is to be done to save the
pastures for their cattle and
sheep.
Under rigid protection, the
herds have increased to such
an extent they are invading
the lowlands, eating every
thing in sight.
Hunters are now allowed
to bag two after payment of
a special five dollar license,
but the season runs only from
November 1st to the 11th. In
addition the animals can be
shot only on occupied, fenced
lands, with the consent of the
land owner. Under such re
strictions there have been no
applications for licenses, hen

for the farmers, in that dir
