PHFOHYVHHHOOOYO OOS SSS as a= AN EXCEPTION. The highest salaried Methodist | preacher in America has resigned his} big church in ‘New York City to go into social work at about half his for- mer salary. . ; This is worth mentioning because most people like to fling it into the faces of preachers that a bigger sal- ‘ary usually constitutes the “call” which, they beard to another field. And by the way—the salary of the average preacher in this country is $700 per year—less. than the average mechanic receives. The preacher spends about 15 years in schools and seminaries getting ready for his job, besides investing some thousands of dollars in his work rations..whereas, the mechanic presins to have an income the very ofirst day that he’s on the job!

Congress, which gave Wilson a vote of confidence when he severed rela- , tions with Germany, doubtless antici- “pated that some affirmative action to _ Protect American rights on the high sea would ‘be necessary. ‘While bringing us nearer to actual Htostilities, the assertion of our privi- Jeges on land or sea in accordance ~ ‘with international law need not mean ¢ war. : : President Wilsor im his message de- + clares that he is not asking Congress to confer upon him now blarket pow- er to declare war. He merely wants means to protect Americans on land and sea who are going about their lawful errands. If the overt act.comes, doubtless he will assemble Congress. and ask for authority to declare war and to pro- vide the necessary credit to meet that extreme exigency. The entire nation hopes and prays that such a step will not ‘be neces- wary. Under international law our citi- , zens have a right to proceed unmo- lested to any port not effectively blockaded. Germany, of course, has mever effectively blockaded any port. The old treaty with Prussia specific- ally provided that neutral ships not carrying contraband shall have free intercourse with all ports, even those > of belligerent nations, and this treaty further provided: _ “And the same freedom shall be ex- tended to persons who shall be onj board a free vessel.” Germany has virtually abrogated this treaty by her inauguration of the .

NEWSPAPERS AND WAR. The charge was recently made in Congress and repeated at a peace- at- any-price meeting in Chicago that} there is a conspiracy among the met- ropolitan new pers of the United| States to force this country into war! with Germany. It was said that J. P. Morgan &| ‘o., the financial agents of the Allies, | -» 1.25]in the United States, organized and! Supreme court financed the conspiracy in the inter-| est of the Allies and the American | munition makers. Of course, no proof was offered to! support the charge, and none will be offered, for the very simple ‘reason| that there is no proof. i We have too much respect for the} profession of journalism to argue the| question of the honesty of the Ameri- can press. But this charge makes the oppor: | tunity for calling attention to what seems to us to be a most significant fact—that nearly, if not quite all, of the daily newspapers, periodicals and} ma: ines, irrespective of their poli-| tics or the character of their clientele, are lined up behind the President in the gravest crisis which has confront- ed the nation since the Civil war. Now, it seems to us that there must of. sentiment on’the part of the news- paper editors of America, particularly | when we take into account that more} than half of them only a few short months back were doing their utmost for re-elec- tion, We are too modest to suggest that’ newspaper editors are more intelli- gent and more patriotic than any other class of people. 3ut it will probably be conceded that they are as well, if not better, nformed than the average men en- aged in other businesses and profes- The very nature of their work— gathering, distributing and interpret- ing the news of the world—puts them in a rather advantageous position, so far as being informed is concerned. They are specialists in current his-| tory, just as much as the lawyer, the doctor, and the artisan are specialists in their respective professions and trades. . That there is often wide disagree- ment among them as to the interpret- ation of the news simply proves that newspaper editors have different men: tal attitudes and different selfish in- terests, just as other folk have; that they are no more free from prejudice than are other folk. It this is a faim) statement, what shall we say when we find a practl- cally unanimous sentiment among newspaper editors of the country con- cerning a question Which involves the most vital interests of the nation and every individual in it, including them- selves? Certain members of Congress have already attempted to answer this question. They say that it means that the newspaper editors are crooks and traitors. We say that stich an interpretation is so preposterous that it answers it- self. And we suggest that the real an- swer is so obvious that it would be an insult to the intelligence of our. read- ers to state it. ‘ The American press neither de- serves nor asks credit for urging the nation to give the President undivided support in his policy of defending Am- erican rights and honor. —__——— The refusal of Bernard Baker to serve as a member of the shipping board when Secretary of the Treas-| ury McAdoo attempted to dictate the. affairs of the board, indicates that he is one man who ought to be a member of that body. » Men who are willing to act as puppets in an important pub-| lic position are unsuited for any im- portant trust. No really big man; would consent to be a mere messen- ger for McAdoo. —S | The mayor of Minneapolis thinks that the preparedness propaganda is ninety per cent commercialism and ten percent patriotism. Mathematical computations of this sort are not now pressing. There will be time to ciph- er it all out after we have fought a war or after we have found that we do not have to fight one. What the country needs is one hundred per cent of preparedness, the ratio of its com-| petent parts to be determined later. | A Republican administration fought the war with Spain at a cost of $78,- 500,000 for the operations of the land} forces. We had about 40,000 men in/ the actual theater of the war. The present Democratic administration} kept Pershing’s column of 12,000 men| in Mexico for ten months at a cost} of $14,000,000 a month.

Editor Bismarck Tribune, Bismarck, N. D. When our Associated Press has so much to say of the “Separation of Church and State” as designed by the present government of ‘Mexico, it may be well to know what kind of “sep aration” the Carranza government in- tends. The new ‘Mexican constitu- tion, while declaring that “Congress shall not enact any law establishing or forbidding any reiigion whatso- ever,” has in Article 130 the follow- ing paragraphs: = 1. The Federal authorities shall have exclusive power to exercise in matters of religious worship and out- ward ecclesiastical forms such inter- vention as by law authorized. * * 2. Marriage is a civil contract. ee 8 8. The law recognizes no corporate existences of the religious associa- tions: known as churches. ‘The ministers of religious-sects shall be’ considered as persons’sexer- cising a profession and shall be di- rectly. Bubject to the laws enacted on the subject, The. state legislature shall have the extlusive power of determining the maxithum ‘number of ministers of religious sects according to the need of each locality. 6. Ministers of religious sects shall not in,any public gathering or private meeting, constituted as such, or in aets of worship or religious propagan- tda, criticize the fundamental laws of the country, the authorities in partic- ular or the government in general; they shall have not vote, either direct- ly or indirectly, nor shall they be en- titled to assemble for political pur- poses. Before consecrating new temples of worship to the public use, permission ment of the interior. * * * Paragraph 8, which we do not give in full, on account of its length, or- ders that each church must have a “public caretaker”; this person, with 10 citizens, must inform the munici- Column pa] authorities whenever ministers of a church are changed. 9. Under no gonditions shall stud- ies carried on in institutions devoted to the professional training of minis- ters of religious sects ‘be ratified or be granted any other dispensation or privilege which shall have for its pur- pose the ratification of the said stud- ies in official institutions. Any au- thority’ violating’ this provision shal? be punished criminally and all such dispensation or privilege shall be null and void, and shall invalidate wholly and entirely. the professional degree obtained through the infraction of this provision. 10. Periodical religious publica- tions shall not on their program, their +| title or merely by their general tend- encies, comment upon any political affairs of the nation, nor publish any information regarding the acts of the authorities of the country or of pri- vate individuals.who have to do with public affairs. 11, Every kind of political associa- tion whose name shall bear any word or indication relating to any religious belief is hereby strictly forbidden. 12. No minister of any religious sect may inherit on his own behalf or ‘by means of a trustee or otherwise, any real estate occupied by any asso- ciation for religious propaganda or religious or charitable purposes. Min- isters of religious sects are legally in- capable of inheriting by will from ministers of the same religious sect or from any private individual to whom they are not related by blood within the fourth degree. Article 27, clause 2, reads: The re- ligious associations known as church- es, irrespective of creed, shall in no case have legal capacity to acquire, own or administer real property, or loans made on such real property; all such real property as may at present ‘be held by the said religious associa- tions, either on their own behalf, or through third parties, shall vest in the nation, and anyone shall have the right to denounce property so_ held. Presumptive proof shall be sufficient to declare the denunciation well founded. y The same article, too long for full quotation, declares also all property BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the sub- stitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the re- sult of- Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it, Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. as episcopal residences, priest houses, convents, religigus echools, orphan asylums, seminaries, etc., or any oth- er buildings built or designed for the administration, propaganda, or teach- ing of the tenets of any religious sect, shall forthwith vest as of full right directly in the nation, to be ices of the federation of the states | within their respective jurisdiction.” Section 14 Article 130, says: No trial by jury shall ever be grapted ceding provisions.

He says: About 18,000 revolutionists rule and terrify Mexico, a nation of more than 16,060,000; they do it be- cause they are armed, while the other people are without arms; just as a few thousand English soldjers can keep the millions of Irish people un- der control. And these banditti have received their arms from the United States. How long will greedy muni- tion; makers and the United States government continue to keep the mil- lions of Mexican people in the worst of servitude by helping the revolu- tionists? How long will the majority of the American press keep their read- ers in ignorance regarding the real conditions in Mexico? VINCENT WEHRLE, Bishop of Bismarck. LIVE IN BROTHERLY LOVE Medora, N. D., Feb. 27, 1917. The thought often comes to me that race prejudice and religious bias are two of the greatest curses of the world. Christianity has been for nineteen hundred years teaching brotherly love. How small the gain! Supposing we try and practice it for a time. Religious bias has tried, or made men try, for hundreds of years to make others believe as they be- lieved; yet to believe so was against the judgment of the ones whose minds and belief they desired to change. What difference does it make to us what others believe? I am thank- ful I live today, in place of having lived three hundred years ago, for then with the belief I have today, I would have been cast into the dun- geon, burned at the stake or broken on the rack. Why? Just stop and think for a moment why? I am sat- isfied there are plenty who would burn me today, if they dared. Today, when our country is stand- ing, I may say, on the brink of a vol- cano, why can we not cast aside all our race prejudices, and live in broth- erly love and harmony? Suppose we all try. Don't let us abuse. any class of our people who are our country- men and should be our friends. Don’t, I beg of all persons, make enemies of those whose friendship we may soon need. To make eenmies of our countrymen does not appear to me to be right. When a poor orphan. child I was living in a family, who, when eggs were scarce in the nests, always ac- cused me of sucking them. Now the truth was I had at the time never sucked an egg, but, as I was accused so often, I thought I would try and suck eggs. I did, and all I could. Now had I never been accused I ney- er would have done s0. 1 I know too well that my education is sadly deficient, but I always thought that all men, who worked and purchased the necessaries of life, were taxpayers. Perhaps I am in error, in this, as I am in many things. If our German friends have made money on the west side of the Mis- souri river, they deserve honor and not reproach. I know a little about the desolate west-side which was set- tled for the first time some 35 years ago; how the settlers picked buffalo bones and hauled them to the railroad to sell that they might purchase food for their dear ones. I once talked with a little German maid of 13 years of age, who told me that the previous winter her family lived almost on flour; that they seldom had coffee or sugar, and never meat, excepting they could catch a jack rabbit, and then they might not have salt. Such were the Germans who made the desalate land on the west side bloom like the rose; and such are the people who make great nations. ‘ James W. Foley. ‘THE PRIGE OF SILENGE” Guffaws of hearty laughter rent the tense silence which attended the showing of “The Price of Silence,” the new William Fox film production, to the city officials of Los Angeles, Cal.,-when the senate chamber scene was flashed on the screen. A. Carlos, general western repre- sentative of the Fox Film Corporation, who had arranged the presentation, was shocked. He looked hard at the film, hoping to catch the “break” that. caused the uproarious outbreak. Fail- ing in this he waited until the end of the show. Then he asked several of the guardians of the city’s fate: “Why?” ‘By picking up a few words here and there from the new outburst of “haw-haws,” Mr. Carlos was finally able to get the cause of the laughter.
