Given all that heart can wish, and left to revel dnhinderéd in the indulgence of that plenty, the national fibre must in- .evitably deteriorate. Any -crisis that jars men out of their ease cannot fail to work good to that people. With no disposition to minimize the_evils of the present conflict, yet we are bound to realize that the world is waking up to a view of lite that it had well-nigh lost. Life is a struggle, and .,when strug- gling ceases decay sets in, S When the smoke of the present conflict has cleared away and the ‘world takes stock of results, we will be found to have learned many yalu- ‘able lessons. One gregt loss is inevitable—that of heroie lives that must ‘,ot necessity be sacrifited, . This is deplorable. ‘et these lives: will };ave_ ‘been given in thqdwndsc ‘glorfoirs .of caudes—the renewing and vitalizing of ‘the life of the natioms. : 4 Raee § . From the dawn of history ;to-the present day, sybarites and sensual- 1sts have -professed to deride and scoff at-the seriptural virtues of renun- clation and self-sacrifice. Yet the decree remains as unalterable today as when enunciated by the Man of Gallilee, that “whosoever loseth his life shall find it.” = “We of America have not yet touched the edge of real renunciation. - We have given only of a superabundance. It is when the giving assumes the nature of sacrifice that the real good to the people will be realized. Shall we, then, pray that it come not tc us? We repeat, the sacrifice of life is deplorable, and we would it could be averted. There is but one greater calamity that could befall us, that is that we should fail to' measure up to the opportunity now knocking at our door. IT WOULD BE A FINE THING TO DO (Duluth Herald) Word comes of & movement having as its purpose the unanimous re- election next year of Chief Justice Calvin L. Brown of the state supreme court, . 3 ki It would be a splendid thing to do—a just tribute to high ability and distinguished public service, a handsome rounding out of a fine career. Justice Brown is the head of the Minnesota supreme court at a time when the court is held in perhaps the highest Tespect in its history. In recent 'years many improvements in judicial practice, having the effect of expediting justice and reducing the number of frivolous appeals and ap- peals made to tire out and discourage poor litigants, have been made un- der his leadership, and much of the credit is due to him personally. It is perhaps needless to say that as a man and as a judge, Chief Brown stands very high in the esteem of judges, lawyers and people. 5 He has been thirty years on the bench—ten years as a district judge and twenty years as a justice and later; chief justice, of the supreme court —yet he is still in the prime of his powers. < If his re-election could be without opposition-and by acclamation, it would be a fitting tribute to able, distinguished service, and a pretty ‘evi- dence that Minnesota cherishes and safeguards and rewards her judiciary according to its merits. I v i = MORALITY VS. IMMORALITY 7 ‘When the Minnesota Public Safety Commission issued its recent man- date that the saloons in Beltrami county be closed, and that liquor ship- ments into the county be stopped instanter, it is, perhaps, not generally known that the Safety Commission took the action at the suggestion of Dr. G. M. Palmer, president of the Beltrami County Public Safety com- mission. g The action was in the interests of law and order. Conditions in Bel- trami county had reached a stage with its illegal traffic im. liquor as to cause large industries to make complaint to the effect that the flow of il- llsgl liquor was interfering with the conduct of business. Conditions in the vicinity of Kelliher and elsewhere had reached the stage where booze was dominant and thrift and industry was suffering. 4 The matter was taken up with Dr. Palmer and by him with the state safety commission. As conditions had already been investigated by the state and found to be all claimed, action on the part of the Safety Com- mission was not slow. 3 The fight against the illegal selling of booze in Beltrami county is a ‘tase of MORALITY vs. IMMORALITY. That’s all there is to it. ‘ L, SR e A DOUBLE-HEADER (Baudette Region) Last week the Spooner News wrote up a court case and arrested the wrollg man. The Reégion never believes in allowing another paper to get the best of it, so we wrote up a wedding and married off the brides- maid instead of the bride. The unfortunate part of it is that both editors are too fat to either fight or run, but by keeping under cover they have naged -to-live long-enough to apalogize in this week’s issue. It is-such little incidents that make. the.job. of .running a newspaper “about as pleasant and healthful as propdgingthree terrifis cheers. for the kaiser at a loyalty meeting.
