The people put that qver ard the people will have to put it undér. Y These “boys” who were élécted to of- fice because of their wet stand will sure have some time fulfilling promises, if théy made any in a trade for votes. And while we are at it, permit us to say that no power from legislatures or of- fice holders will have any effect upon the repeal of the 18th Amendment, but that this repeal must come from thé péople through thé ballot. We alSo might add that the so-called widespread violation of the 18th amend- ment 'is desperate]y rotten, -but how about other- violations, for which w¢ have laws to govérn. When.you compare the number of mnrglers, robberies and othér crimes (for which. we have had laws since time began) thh the violations of _thé 18th amendment, which has been in force, but a few months, it isn’t so bad after all. They téll us that boozs and “moon” is bemg s dpprd into:the cities by the auto loads and by airplanes now-a-days. “Sure” says the Minneapolis Journal, “we can re- member wheén it was shipped in by train loads,” and it wasn’t long ago at that. Every violation of the Volstéad act is beitig played to the ganer:es. The wets want to show, that it is worse than it ac- tually is pictured, and that a restoration of light wihes 4nd beers would put the country back on a safe and sane basis. In fact some pretty decent fellows, right here in Bemidji believe this. Probably they don’t like the taste of the “swill” that is dished out from the stills these days. We don’t blame them very much. Certainly a finé glass of wine is not to be compared with the/samples of “high-grade moon.” At least we would take a chance on the wine, but not::on the moon. The point at issue is; how to remedy con- ditions. This applies to the violation of the 18th amendment as well as to the violation of murders, theft and other crimes. Why pick on the violations of the Volstead act and forget the others, éspecially when one is a new law, just a mere infant, while the others are as old as the nation. A TRIBUTE TO BEMIDJI The Hibbing Tribune’in writing up the account of the foothall‘game between their }ugh school and Bemidji gives not only our, team and coach a sendoffy but our citiens and students as well. In part the Tribune comments ag fol-: lows “Coach Vance and his gridiron warriors retyrned from Bemidji with the highest re- gard for the team and townspeople of that clty. The squad enjoyed the best time they by most people TENSTRIKE to not weather stop them from ever had on their trip to Bemidji—better than any the team has taken. The members of the team were treated royally by the team and the people in general According to some of the members of thé team, they have never visited ‘a plahe th&t has been 43 hospitable to them as Betidji. A o1& of the players put it: “They fought us hard in fact as hard as they were capable of, during the game, but they showed us the best time after the cortest.” _“Coach Vance Highly of the treat- i e 1ty quarterback Dr. Dietrich is said to be . behind every move to h er athlfélcs ;n "“that cxty, and in the stat in gene Dietrich i§ an authority on athletics. He is, one of the few professxona] men to take such a great interest in athletics in that city. Besides being such a great supporter of athletics, and being behind every move to promote good sportsmafiship in athletics Dr. Dietrich is an official of the highest type.” . A LIVE ISSUE? Although a cemetery is usually consid- ered a rather “dead”issue, the problem now confronting the Cemetery Board of this city is quite a live ohé. The present cemetery is fulI “up: No fa- mily lots for sale and added ground ‘is needed. Where the board.should secure the ground is the question: They-have endeav- oréd to secure sentiment from:the public through the various city organizations, but are still at, sea. Members of the Civic and _Commeérce Association were asked their v1ews in_the matter and the majority were in’ favér of securing property to open up a new cem- etery. The reason for this seems to be that: the present site is too central and that property owners haturally object to en- larging the present grounds, W. N. Bowser. suggested that thé board secure one hundred or moré acres three or four miles out, so that the question would be settled for years and years to come. If ten acres adJommg the present grounds were purchased in ten years the same problem would confrofit the board. The sentimént thus far voiced favors the purchase of added grounds elsewhere and out from the city. The board must take action soon and is anxious to hear opin- jons from all, before investing in ‘addition- al property. . § —8 . . CHOOSE YOUR SLOGAN The national debt is now aboiit SZIO for evéry man, woman and child ift America. However, it is nearly twice as big as.all the money invested in the country’s tele- phone, telegraph, electric railway and elec- -tri¢ power and hghtmg systems combined. The national debt is more than Six times as much as all the moneéy invested in the iron and steel works, rolling mills and blast furnaces. If the people were to chose a s]ogan for its men in congréss we wonder; uhdér the above conditions, what they would suzgest. Instead of a “wet or dry” slogan or issue the most essential problem to day is “BCONOMY.” The people will watch with interest the action of their répresenitatives during the coming years. JOY SEEKERS Judging from general cotiversation we hear daily, next to womén and ney, men . are largely interested’ in knowing. how: to get some of that quantity.of. sovemment whiskey that is being held fcr some pur— pose or other. Under the barrage 6f° “hght wines and beer” many of our pohtlclans will seek to dodge some of the real issues of the day. And what’s more, they will .contihue to get away with 1t,.
