When the proposition was’ made to the state board of university and school lands to purchase $100,000 worth of Liberty Bonds from the school funds, Thomas Hall, secretary of state, and Carl Ko- sitzky voted in the negative. The other two members present, Governor Frazier and N. C. Macdonald, favored the purchase. What “Cyclone Bill” Langer would have done were he pres- ent, can only be inferred. that the finance the Probably mem- pers: WA the $Monpartisan \Heague re- gine ; will defend their vote on the ground. that some ‘sinister influence ig at:work to. tie up'the ‘school funds money was needed to farmers of North Dakota. , In, Liberty, ‘Bonds, ‘so,that.the farmer will. hdve to’ go/elsewheré’ to finance hia loan.

The Trib- une is confident if the farmers had been asked they would have voted the purchase of $100,000 Liberty Bonds from the school fund joyfully. The federal government has dealt generously with North Dakota in en- dowing her with lands for the support of the common schools and the in stitutions of higher learning. (But at the first opportunity North Dakota has to show some degree of grati- tude for this rich heritage, Mr. Halt and Mr. Kositzky object. ‘ Their vote does not reffect ‘public sentiment in North’ Dakota. It’ may represent the dictates of, Townley, who has scored the Liberty’ Loan ‘bonds on the stump and in other ways demonstrated his hostility toward the administration's policies in entering the war. , It is not the intent of this editorial to question the patriotism of either Mr. Hall or Mr. Kositzky. The Trib- ‘une merely believes they ‘blindered in not permitting this state to invest a portion of her school funds in the Lib- erty Loan. There is still time to correct,,the impression that North Dakota is fol- lowing too servilely the socialistic commands of Townley, et al. The federal government gave us the lands through the sale of which the school fund accrued. Is it too much to ask now, in gratitude for a gift valued in the millions, a paltry loan of $100,060 at 3 1-2 per cent? Only a portion of the $100,000 could be loaned to farmers, anyway, and the rest must seek investments drawing not more than 4 per cent. The arguments of Hall and Kositz- ky won't hold water. Let the state do its bit before it is too late. CHUCKS AND KERNELS, Behind the cashier’s desk of a cer- tain drug store—the sort of drug store where a purchaser is given a check calling for payment to the cashier—there sits a little man with a smile. Say, he’s a busy chap. But, heaven pity him, he’s forced to do the same old thing over again a thousand times a day. Yet, even so, every time he takes in a nickel or a dollar he says: “Thank you.” Nothing unusual about that, you're thinking; every cashier says, thank you. Yes, but that’s the very point —every cashier doesn’t say it with |—for them. the same inflection the little drug | store man puts into the words. His thank you is a real one, per- sonal, intimate, hearty. you hear it you believe that the little cashier means just what he says, that he and his firm actually do thank you. | Sooner or later you stop to wonder that a man can speak the same words so often without really repeating them at all. You ask the cashier how he does it {and he says: | “Maybe I’m a nut. You see every nut has a chuck and a kernel. My job is to give of myself. And who has any use for a chuck. I guess I'm intending always to give the ker- nel.” Pausing, he says to the girl who in- terrupts to pass him 10 cents for a sundae, “Thank you.” The girl tilts her nose, but untilts it as she catches the look of the little cashier's eyes, wherein she sees not freshness, but just human kind- liness. “Thank you,” she mean, you're welcom stammers. “I JUSTICE FOR ALL. One thing the high and rising cost of living does that is good—it keeps food from being consumed. That has been advanced as an ar- gument against lower prices by some cago. They argue that there is a serious shortage of some foods and that high prices prevent all unnecessary use of those foods. They say that at high prices people use only what they must use. And that is a very good argument But this is what really happens: Under high’ prices the rich ' may have all they want. No one imagines that it makes any difference to a millionaire whether butter is 25 or 60 cents. He doesn’t have to eat any less beef when it costs 50 cents than when it costs 18. Sugar might be 20 cents a pound and he'd have his regular four lumps per. But it does make a difference to the poor—to the thousands of families ‘where from $10 to $20 is the total weekly. income. \, » RHe:poor have to stop buying when pricés ‘get too high. They have to eat poorer foods. They have to eat less. They have to do heavy. work. on insufficient nourishment.” High prices save food—from the poor! Government food supervision means something else. - If it is the right kind’ it means a square deal for the. work- ing people, on. whom America de- pends so much in this war. ‘And America’ ‘must treat working peoplé squarely now, if America ex- pectsto get ‘back from them the right reina-of return. For, however patriotic the heart may be, the stomach will conquer in the end—it will pay back for what it gets. America does not want food control by the speculator at the expense of the poor. America has said to the world that America means justice. America must make good on that at home, as well as throughout the world. ON THE RAGGED EDGE. Russia’s minister of finance de- clares that, owing to the enormous dé- mands of the workmen, his country is threatened with financial ruin; that industrial concerns working for national defense must close, within a few months; and that salvation lies wholly in an end of the war. It seems that the Russian revolu- tion has, from its inception, lacked a big leader and in genuine patriotism, prime necessaries ip revolt against the status quo. : The mighty French revolution of a century and a quarter ago was engi- neered and for a time run by a fair- sized oligarchy, but patriotic zeal ran so high that the halo of heroism was given a man who would throttle his wife for not wearing headgear of the republican colors. In Russia the most promising leaders of the revolt have already quit in disgust and every ele- ment of the populace seems to have gone in for all it can get for itself. The condition presents opportunity for counter-revolution and certainty of failure of the national war-‘busi- ness. Industrial disorder and faflure are, naturally, inevitable. Russia seems not t obe swayed, unitedly, by @ genuine sentiment of patriotism, al- though strongly set against the di- vine rights infamy. Greed might have united and swayed her, but her ad- ministration early renounced design of acquisition. War might solidify her discordant elements, but the craf- ty kaiser is pleased with present con- ditions in Russia and doesn’t start anything. Russia’s revolution is an unidenti- fied egg that has been sat on up to Pretty near the hatching point. Will it produce an owl, a game cock, or a mud. turtle? The administration made a mis- take in refusing passports to Stock- holm to Socialists ‘Hillquit, Lee and Berger.

They should have got ‘pass- ports to Stockholm, with orders te stay thera THE SIZE OF IT. After a speaking tour of middle and western cities, Secretary McAdoo sums up the popular sentiment of these regions thus: “This war was forced on Uncle Sam. Now, that he is in it, we'don’t intend that he shall be licked.” This is“correct and it probably would fit all sections of the country. The Middle West, West and Far West were not for war. The people of these regions would rather farm than fight, any time. They expressed their views in November last. They were honestly, not weakly or cow- ardly pacific. They were pacific as the result of serious thinking and, when war became a national neces- sity, they went into the war ‘business with the same, seriousness. When British, French and: Italian commissions come to this country and get magnificent reception at the na- tional capital and the metropolis, they are delighted with the friendli- ness and heartiness of their treatment and they get a pretty fair view of the nation’s material strength, but the great power of the nation. lies far be- hind the battleships in the Potomac or inthe ‘North -river;;and:the roar of harbor fortification cannon ‘is ‘not the rel ‘voice of the nation. “It is ‘the deadly seriousness of the. American millions who do not greet and enter- tain that is most important to thé Allies, most to be dreaded by the Ger- mans. And those millions, in fields, stores, factories and homes, are en- gaged, seriously, earnestly, calmly, in the work of’ making Uncle Sam a winner. H Up to last fall, they thought that‘ the country west of the Alleghenies was dead or merely going as the East goes. They counted the votes of New York and a few other eastern baili- wicks and declared a president. Then they woke up. The West had done its own thinking. It is doing its own thinking today, without any roaring. It does not intend that Uncle Sam shall be licked. It will harvest and prove that it has turned back world famine. It will offer its young men with no noise louder than the fare- well kiss. It will take its share of the Liberty bonds. It will be willing and thorough in any sacrifice it may be called upon to make. If there are still pacifists left, they are only a few who are afflicted with the hyphen, or who would run before they'd fight, whatever the cause. : Mr. McAdoo has had a glance at the real war strength of the country. It would be a mighty good thing should others in high authority back, east similarly inform themselves. Big of- ficials, big forts, big guns, big ships, big money, big hurrahs back Fast. But'the real bigness is the determina- tion in the hearts and labors of the people who, as Mr. McAdoo puts it, don’t intend that Uncle Sam should be licked. ‘ Fight, farm, or finance the war by buying a Liberty Bond! Choice of three ‘ways to.be a patriot ought to be enough for anyone, save a coward. | CITATION HEARING PETITION TO ESTABLISH RIGHT OF HEIRSHIP TO REAL ‘PROPERTY.

H. Smith, ‘tales manager of Diamond tires at Chicago, said: ‘“Now-a-days, when we gee so many variations, imitations and likenesses of the pneumatic tire on the market, we sometimes stop and think: ‘Is the pneumatic tire right in principle? ‘Will we always continue to ride, along on skillfully built cush- ions of air, or will science evolve some heretofore unheard of combina- tion which will do away with the un- certainties of the pneumatic tire?’ “ft can only say in answer to this that almost every innovation in the tire world has been tried out in the laboratories of the Diamond Rubber company, and has been discarded in favor of the pneumatic tire. While often. tempted to introduce an innovation in the ‘basic principle of tires, this company has steadfastly stuck to the pneumatic tire principle. It firmly believes that if improve- ments in tires are to come, they wilt be improvements in the pneumatic tire, and not in tires built on any other principle. When you consider that with ordinary careful driving Dia- mond tires are now far exceeding their 3,500-mile adjustment basis, and when you hear of Diamond users who, year after year, ride along with no tire trouble whatever, we are more convinced than ever that the pneu- matic tire principle cannot be im- proved upon. “The Diamond tire of today is as different from the Diamond tire of a decade ago as any two tires could well be. Then we used to get from $60.00 to $100.00 for tires that are now selling for from $20.00 to $40.00. “And the tire of today will travel a far greater distance than the tire that used to cost so much money. The product has been wonderfully im- proved, and the end of improvement is not yet in sight. While the Dia- mond is good today, it is only reason- able to suppose that from the biggest rubber experimental laboratory in the world, in the Diamond factory, new ideas, new processes, will ‘be evolved which will make the Diamond better and better every year. “We do not claim to make Dia- monds perfect, but we aim to make them so.” se 4 : af ; Be ot a r ; F PL » 4 ‘ Be il : ‘ t) a ‘ns t | | | . ¥ ay } ty 40 a” a et, a 5 é Drawer
