North Dakota can best serve the nation in this crisis by energetic, in- 1ensitied farming. The acreage should be increased as much as Is feasible with the labor and machinery at band, If men could be sworn into the federal service and be assigned to North Dakota farms for the next six months, they could de more good in preparing the soil for a bumper crop than if they were to devote themselves to military training. Bread bullets will win the ‘North Dakota is one of the chief arse- nals for this kind of ammunition. The serious handicap is the Jabor situation. Bnlistment of large bodies of men will seriously affect the labor market. If (‘North Dakota can get wen, it will increase its yield of food- stuffs, all things else being equal and ‘auspicious. Those in control of the state bu- reau of agriculture and labor have an opportunity to help the nation by concentrating all effort upon mobiliz- ing large numbers of men when and where they are most needed, Com- mercial clubs and banks should unite to foster this movement for increas- ed acreage. war, GET BUSY, CONSUMERS! In war time, the consumer ought to do all he can to help him- self, as a producer. The movement for city back yard gardgns is fine, and the consumer can further help himself and his nation by prodding his municipal government until there is no such thing as idle arable city real estate. All vacant lots should be Pingreed, as Detroit's potato may- or would say. Potatoes, beans, cora and onions can be grown on % per cent of the vacant lots in any city. Feeding people in war times is sure- ly as legitimate a work of municipal manegement as arresting them or keeping them in terror of law, and the municipal government that won't move in such work should see some close-by fireworks touched off by con sumers. GO IN TO WIN. This nation has entered the world war, Being in we must do our share of the work and do it right, that we may come through, not merely with credit, but what is immensely more important for us and the world, with the high aims won for which we have ‘begun to fight. Here is what this newspaper would like to see done and what it believes is the safe, decent and honest course for us to steer. : it hopes to see the United States from the very start, from the word, “Go!” join the Allies, full-fledged as one of them in all respects, no hold- ing back, no “defensive war.” It hopes to see this government put the quietus on the notion that we hire other people to fight while we sidestep our part of the common duty. It hopes to see that achieved by starting at the earliest practicable time a division of ‘American regulars for the French front. It hopes to see at the same time other troops enlisted, drilled and equipped with all possible speed that additional divisions may be sent as fast as they are ready. It hopes to see Congress pass the universal military training bill, at once; and with no more wind jam- ~|mon defense on the sole basis of the one of this country in men, money and | munitions, getting them all ready,| that we may strike with all the/| strength we have, It hopes to see a liberal policy fol- Jowed about financial help to our al lies—no more shylocking, no more coining of the blood of stricken na- tions, no more loans at 6 1-2 cent! per Jt would like to see the government | clamp itself down with all the swift n skill and energy we have, to the end that it may be the sooner over and the world released from its hor-} rible shadow. It would like to see our resources controlled and organized for the com common need and not of exorbitant profits for anybody. | It would like to the fine spirit of unselfishness and service that has taint of partisan politics, sonal ambition or private advantage It believes that all these things are not only common sense, but they are absolutely necessary to the dignity, welfare truest success of this country. To us has been given the task to] end this war, to end it in the only} right way, to end it with the final vic tory for liberty and democracy and decency. | No other nations ever had such a} chance. If we stand upright like | men and do the thing that is laid up- on us, we shall open up a new era in| the history of this old world, make; it for the first time fit to live in and) shake from it the last old links that) fasten it up to darkness and feudal-| per: and ism. A world without a king andj without wars! i Then let go, with everything we) have. Throw it wide open, turn on| every ounce of steam, and crowd through to the end! | The sooner we do that the sooner we shall have peace. And if we do; that the kind of peace we shall have will be worth all that it costs, what- ever that may b ‘Experience is a hard teacher-—but fearfully efficient. Popular colors for women this sea- son will be red, white and blue; for men, kbaki. Perhaps an France would army in the Cer- American facilitate mans’ “strategic retirement.” What's tho sense in questioning the idontity of Santa Claus, or that rab- bits lay pink eggs on Waster morn, or that the moon is made of green cheese, when some folks can actually believe that German agents are stir- ring up the colored citizens to go to Mexico for the purpose of arming to invade the United States? 0 ° CITY NEWS i 0——_——_— | Birth of Son—A son was born, Wednesday, to Mr. and !Mrs. H.

It exceeded all of my expectations, both in point of attendance and in the sane ideas broughi forth,” said Senator H. W. Allen of Braddock, who called on The Tribune yesterday en route home from the anti-Socialist meeting at |Grand Forks. Senator Allen reports that the big Victor | city hall at the Forks was filled with earnest, enthusiastic farmers and business men from all parts of the ate intent upon learning just what Townleyism and Bowenism means to North Dakota, Everyone who attended the big meeting went home inspired with .the ogan which emblazoned the slage— “Carry the Truth to the People— That's All.” “It is to be a campaign of education and of enlightenment— of simple truth-telling,” said Senator Allen. MOLDING BREAD BULLETS, J. W. Bull of Minneapo! who owns @ large amount of. farm prop- erty in this vicinity, is here doing his share to mold bullets by offering ev- ery vacant acre he p ses for cul- tivation. Mr. Bull finds the only fac- tor militating against a stupendous North Dakota acreage to be some dif- ficulty in obtaining sufficient labor. There has been suggested a plan of mobilizing all the idle men from the cities and impressing them into “war service” on the farms.

Stenmo ‘‘Fav- orably Mentioned’’—Primary or Convention System? Among th day’s possibilities for Representative Henry T. Helgesen’s seat in congress are Senator Albert E. Stenmo of Grand Forks, elected to the Fifteenth assembly as a nonpar- tisan, but who conducted himself as an independent and voted with the regulars on most questions; former State’s Attorney O. B. Burthness of Grand Forks, E. C. Olsgaard, a well known McVille banker, and H. A. Bronson, former state senator and now first assistant attorney general. Mr. Bronson, when approacheg yes- terday, said he hadn’t given the prop osition any consideration. He did not state that he might not become a candidate, nor did he intimate that he would, “I would most seriously object to having my name used in this connec- tion in any manner,” strenuously a: serted former Chief Justice C. J. Fisk, whose legal residénce is in Grand Forks, when approached on {the subject today. He had been men- tioned as a strong probability for the Democratic nomination. “If Frazier isn’t the league candi- date, you may rest assured Bill Lemke will be,” said a man who is closer to the inner councils of the Townleyites today. “And,” he added, “I don’t know but what the league might put. Bill over.” The Democratic Idea. “If the Democrats nominate Sena- tor Drown he will be the next repre- sentative from the First district, no matter whether the league lines up behind him or not,” stated F. 0. Hel-| strom, Democratic candidate for gov- ernor four years ago. “It is a Demo- cratic year, and with Drown as their candidate, the Democrats can carry the First district regardless of any man the Republicans may put up.” AID FOR RECRUITING 10 BE OFFERED BY GENERAL DSTRIGT GOMMITTEENEN George L.

The navy department furnishes a uniform, credentials and insignia, and it asks that some young woman be selected who will be: will- ing to devote a portion of her time to the work. The name of Miss Al- dyth Ward was suggested, and she was today asked to accept this posl- tion. Similar re¢ruiting officers have been named in other cities of the state. AN OLD LANOWARK WILL PASS WITH ERECTION OF LON BLOGK ON THIRD One of the city’s oldest business landmarks will pass with the erec- tion of the new Logan building on Third, work on which probably will commence about, the middle of May. The little frame structure occupied by the Logan grocery was erected in 1878, when Bismarck was" but six years old, by the late M. P. Slat- tery. For 39 years this building has been occupied by the Logans, father and sons. Austin Logan, the first oc- cupant, was so anxious to begin busi- ness that the structure was thrown together in three days. One of the few buildings in Bismarck of more ancient vintage is the Slattery struc- ture on the corner adjoining the ‘Lo- gan place. Roy Logan, the present owner, plans to build a modern business house with fifty feet frontage ‘on Third, two store-rooms below and a number of office suites in the second story. The building will be of brick and stone, fireproof, and in keeping with the fine tone of ther structures erected in’ this neighborhood during the last two years, WORK BEGUN ON HUGHES BUILDING.-CONSTRUGTION PROSPECTS SEEM GOOD Excavating for the new Hughes building, adjoining the Haggart on Broadway, began this morning. The little frame structure occupied by the Saunders Electric Shop was load- ed on wheels yesterday and hauled to its new location. John L. Larson, who has the general contract, will rush construction and hopes to have the building ready for occupancy by mid-summer. ‘ There will be two, modern store rooms on the first floor and. five suites of office rooms on the second. The architecture. will. correspond with that of the Haggart building, the igame type of Hebron brick being used. .
