And the poor bean twisted and wriggled and put up a brave fight, but its struggle was in vain. It rotted because un- able to push up through the earth and it cursed the first man and died. The gardner (today doesn’t jbury his bean deep in earth. He barely covers it over. If he could trust the snui7Pinds, Wot to eat it and the rains not > to, wagh. it. away. he wouldn’t cover ott ata tiny ‘and why"'this practice of the mod- rn*'gatdner?’ Because he * knows at’ after the bean takes root a stalk appears that must lift the seed quite out of ‘the ground: Once raised in- to, the sunshine: the seed splits like ani opened ‘oyster apd from it issues the first’ leaves of the plant.” “Buried, the- seed“is unable to-do~ any~ such, thing. “ f:ther@ you have the whole of Have you . -stt ie blems as the gardner jidfed“the bean.

France that they learned nothing of the new ‘and forgot noth- _ this country in which they are suffer- ed to exist. They cannot forget any- thing of their old admiration and al- legiance to the kaiser and..his. hench- men. They have mistaken ‘our easy- going American tolerance for license. Now that the first shock of worry as to their status in this country has passed, they are resuming their un- American tactics. They do not do this by coming out with one big, bold smagh, but by the none the less ob- jectionable plan of little daily pecks and dabs. Here is the Illinois Staats- zeitung for instance saying: “Now a great cry is sounded in administration circles: ‘Destroy world autocracy—enthrone world de- Mocracy.’ That is a bigger order than ‘catch Villa’ ever was. We did not catch Villa and we will not de- throne the world autocracy. We can- not follow the administration with that slogan.” The truth fs of course that this obnoxious sheet cannot follow the ad- ministration with any American slogan. Anything aimed at Prussian militarism, at German autocracy, at the kaiser jars the Staatszeitung to the very nerve-centers. And every time it lets out a snarl it gives a per- ‘fect example of the insensate hyphen- 4sm which is bound some day soon to react to its own hurt. ——_—_ FOOD CONTROL Starting out strictly as a war mea- sure, the food control bill has Jost its original identity and emerges as prohibition legislation. That nation. al prohibition is a consummation de- Youtly to be wished for goes without saying, but why the issue should be interposed at this.time.is not. ap- Parent to fair minded men. The zealots at Washington are de- «, termined there shall be‘no control of * food prices, no relief to the wage MRT ne Areates Rower.to.exegute], war plans until the nation is bone dry. If the bill had left the expediency of prohibiting the use of food stuffs in the manufacture of liquor or beer to President Wilson’s discretion, all ends would have been served and practically the one objective would be gained—that of food conservation. ‘There are influences at work to hamper the United States in the con- duct of this war. Some of them are receiving orders directly from Wil helmstrasse. Probably the prohibi- tion forces at Washington are being used by these very agents. The Lever bill primarily is to con- trol food so that our allies may be kept supplied and at the same time illegitimate speculation in the neces- sities of life may be curtailed or prac- tically eliminated. Our first duty is to win the war. Whether the nation goes bone dry is a matter of secondary consideration just now. The various states seem to be settling the Hquor issue without federal intervention. Why then this determination to delay an urgent war measure until the issue of prohibition is settled? If Lincoln had freed the slaves be- fore he took up arms to preserve the Union, the war doubtless would have been prolonged many years. The nation is fairly well agreed that the liquor evil must be wiped out and progress prohibition has made should satisfy any but the rad- icals that the days of John Barley- corn are numbered. But the pronib- itionists are not making permanent progress by their present unyielding attitude. President Wilson should be given plenary powers over ‘the liquor traf- fic. If national prohibition is a war measure, the issue should be fought out at once on its merits in a separ- ate bill. Nothing can be gained by begging the issue until after the war by the kind of prohibition the amend- ment to the Lever bill proposes, Drink is an evil and must go and probably the only manner of regula- tion is federal enactment, but it is poor policy to endanger possibility of proper food legislation by forcing the Issue ‘at this time. + } «The, NewYork Times well ' states| thé.case: “The ‘hation must ‘bend all ite/energies to ‘the’ accomplishment of thé! purposes for which it went to t’ these’ men are obstructing those purposes, they. are confusing the issue of the war, upon which the people have declared. their will, with |: another ,jqsue .upon which Congress has recelved né mandate, an issue as to which ‘in many of the'States public opinion has yet to be declared.” No. 8's usiness on: Loans and discounts .-- $443,449.28 Overdrafts, secured and unsecured ........ 1,673.90 54,927.58 Warrants, stocks, tax tificates, claims, ete furniture cer- Banking house, furniture and fixtures ....

It is claimed that the Grand’ Forks convention was held in accord- ance. with the old causus and conven- tion system which has not been in use since the adoption of the primary elec- t tion laws, but there is no ‘proof to sustain such claim, and the presump- tion is against it. In fact, after the date of the Governor's proclamation, the time was. not sufficient for the giving of notices, the holding of cau- the holding: of county conven- should be made under Sec..501 of the| tions and the election of delegates to Code of 1899.

The remaining total would be insignificant compared -with the size of the army to be raised and officials declare many congressmen are in fa- vor of letting the big league fintsh their present campaign without break: ing up the teams. The congressmen, it is said, hold the nation needs its great pastime now more than in peace times, if only as 8 safety valve for the outlet of sup pressed emotion.
