SRO, ‘ THURSDAY, MARCH 8, 1917. Washington, Mrch 7,—The United States today is like a man walking on the last inch of a huge precipice and dreaming dreams that he is safe. If by any possibility Germany wins in this war, or if she comes out of it unbeaten, this country we love has never been in such imminent deadly peril as it will be in then. Not in the civil war, not at any other time. The staggering revelations of Ger- many’s plottings to embroil us with Mexico and Japan are not half the story. It isn’t Japan and Mexico alone, nor Germany, Japan and Mexico alone that we faced in that diabolical man- euvering. In the end it was Germany, Japan, Mexico—and Russia.

Negotiat- ed by a pro-German administration in Russia and plainly shaped as a pre- liminary to another compact—we overlook that. The terms of that aliance, bind jeach of the nations in the most as- tounding way to support the other in jany foreign complication—we seem to }the United States or anybody else— | we overlook that.

The pageant in- terprets the reign of “Joy” with mu- sic, painting and philosophy in classic dance with happy children, “The Spir- it of Youth” and “The Spirit of Dance,” all in joyous revel. Other features are introduced which lead up to the war. The pageant is one of the most stu- pendous events to be put on by local talent of that city. Mrs. Harris and Mrs. deLendrecie are both well quali- fied to stage the pageant. Many of the most prominent women of Fargo are patronesses.

Resubmission of the prohibition ques- tion within three rs as a result of the complete cutting off of North Da- kota’s. booze supply is a prediction freely made by local citizens who have been accustomed to the importation of liquors for their personal use. “Nation-wide prohibition will have come before that time,” declared Dep- uty Gammons when asked his opinion. In the meantime, if Governor Frazier signs House Bill 39, with the emergen- cy clause attached, it will be rather difficult for tipplers to stock up ts any extent before July 1 rolls ’round.
