THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER. (Established 1873) > MAYBE IT TRIED MAC’S CONSCIENCE. Miss Lolita, daughter of J. Ogden Armour, has arrived at San Francisco en route to her winter home at Santa Barbara. She arrived in an ordinary, plebian, plush-furnished Pullman, the war manage- ment having refused her her private ear. Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, desiring to use a pri- vate car for a trip from Washington to Spartans- burg, S. C., to visit her husband, was told that the government was conserving fuel and motive pow- er and she couldn’t have it. Director McAdoo must have heen in a quandrary. What he did was to give some lovely object lessons in government partiality. But. business is business and there’s no sentimentin business, and so forth. ‘An Armour or Vanderbuilt would pay. for a private ear ten times what the government could possibly save in fuel and motive power, in holy terror lest gov- ernment might get to requiring them to ride in a cat- tleear. However, Mr. McAdoo probably thought he could sleep casier if he didn’t take advantage of his opportunity to skin ’em while the skinning was good. It is to be hoped that their Pullman experience left no sore spots on Miss Armour and Mrs. Vanderbilt. Indeed, they can get used to Pullmans, if they travel enough. mail outside of North Dakota, ee g or Morning by 5.0 THE WAR FINANCE CORPORATION. Bills have introduced simultaneously in the ser- ate and house for the ereation of the new War Fi- nance Corporation. ‘The corporation is to have an authorized capital of five hundred million dollars, all to be subscribed by the U. §. government and to ‘be used for the following purpoes: (1) To enable banks to re-discount at the Feder- al Reserve Bank, notes and other obligations of pub- lic utilities, industrial and mercantile corporations and firms which those banks own or have been car- rying. risa (2) To enable the government, in the interest of its Liberty~Loan financing, to regulate and con- trol the investment market and the current rate of interest on corporation securities, by having the War Finance Corporation make loans direct to pub- lie utility, industrial and commercial companies and firms, to enable them tomect and take care of matur- ing obligations and to provide funds for such ex- tensions and:additions as may be found necessary in order that the corporations so financed may ren- der additional service to the government and the public in the prosecution of the war, which the money market now makes almost impossible. (3) To assist the government in the marketing of its Liberty Bonds, by permitting the War Finance Corporation to go into the market and buy and sell bonds of the government or of any political subdiv- ision thereof. - The argument for this measure is urgent and we present it without prejudice as follows Governmental war financing has _ practically closed the investment market to all other financing It is impossible for a local corporation, in competi- tion with the Liberty Loan financing, to obtain mon- ey for any purpose except at prohibitive rates of interest andthe excessive interest rates which bor- rowers have been obliged to pay on all corporation loans, floated or offered in recent months, have, by contrast, made the interest rate on Liberty Bonds look unattractive. It. appears that over five hundred millién dollars of public utility and other corporation indebtedness will mature in the year 1918. It is obvious that the refunding of any such amount of indebtedness, at very high’ rates, would seriously interfere with the flotation this year of Liberty Bonds. Another advantage claimed from the funding of these corporations through the Kar Finance Corpor- ation, as proposed, will lie in,the protection of the public against..the payment of increased rates to public utilities and higher prices for the product or service of the other corporations and firms which |! must follow'the payment of abnormally high interest rates. For instance, the payroll and fuel bill to- gether, of the average interurban or street railway, amount to’75 per cent of its total operating expens The balance represents supplies and manufactur- ed materials, the cost of which is found, upon analy- sis, to be largely labor and fuel. The:price of fuel is fixed as a result of government regulation, and the cost of labor is a factor that lies largely beyond-the control of the railway company. Were it not. for government regulation, the cost of ‘coal today would undoubtedly be much higher than it is and: it follows that the cost of service rendered by public utilities and of the products of. manufacturing con- cerns would! necessarily. be higher, to reimburse them for.the increased cost of. fuel. -/ If the interest charges of these corporations is materially increased or if by reason of the existing financial conditions, corporations: find it impossible ‘to extend or pay their debts and are consequently forced into reeeiverships. with all the attendant tre- mendous costs and expenses, or. if the facilities of ‘these corporations are o¥er! inadequa’ id money: for their reli ming, the Yio ES ee reed ee, the financit corporations necessary credit. West and South no longer look to New York for guidance as to interest rates. The government has taken over the railroads— months after the war this vital and necessary fune- tion of life, at least as at present planned. The Farm Loan Board is taking eare of the farm- er’s financial needs. Prices have been fixed on steel, copper and coal, while sugar, flour and oil are licensed and under government control. In fixing these prices, the government has been eminently fair and yet has set its face against profiteering and exploitation. If congress authorizes the War Finance Corpora- tion we shall then‘ also have government agency which can extend financial aid to sound and es- sential private industry, and keep the interest rate on the money so lent within reason. GO TO IT, MR. DIRECTOR! Ten fast trains, loaded with food for Europe, are speeding across the country, a United Press item of Thursday last. ‘ The movement of this delayed food has been made 00| possible largely through curtailment of passenger X trains. We're going to advise Railroad Director McAdoo 0 |to cut off all passenger trains, save troop trains, for one solid week, in the territory east of the Missis- sippi. The public will suffer comparatively little, if sufficient advance noticcis given of tke cut. There must be no let-up in supplying the boys in Europe, though every traveler in’ Ameriea has to be tied to his bedpost for a week. Business, Mr. McAdoo! Real war \ WHAT THEY-GET, IF— \ Russian army commissioners, in their order stop- ping demobilization, wired the soldiers, sailors*and workingmen at Petrograd. “Do your duty. Defend the revolution It shows that the Bolsheviki have got at least one idea straight. When Germany gets Russia, there’s going to be an end to revolution of soldiers, sailors and workingmen; there’s going to be the dead, low- down calm autocraey, with the common folk backed up against walls and shot, if they don’t knuckle under. That’s going to be the status, too, if Italy, France England and the United States, when Germany takes them—-but not till then. business, We may see Bill Taft in tighis, yet. He has got as far as refereeing boxing matches. Ha! already the Germans are demanding of Russia guarantee of her debts. Stepforward with $4,000,- 0€0,000, Mr. Trotzky, please! Hoover plainly charges the crisis in food trans- portation up to Railroad Director McAdoo. Say, boys, don’t go to bolsheviking! Like Joshua, the British are now sitting down be- fore Jericho. But, we guess that they won’t use Joshua’s cute little plan to break into Jericho, Those indefatigable Socialists, Herbert Bigelow and Morris Hilquitt, have reformed and are fighters now. Gradually, the Socialists are coming to real- ize that. if German autocracy wins, there aren’t go- ing to be any Socialists—live cnes. | | __WITH THE EDITORS. _| GEORGE BAILEY QUIT. Bix in Lincoln (Neb.) Journal. George Bailey of the Houston Post was conscien- tiously opposed to thé war tax on tobacco. From boyhood the weed had been his solace and comfort in lonely house, and a very present help immedi- ately after eating. Why should the government place a burdensome tax on something the poor de- pended on to console them in their poverty? Bailey was perfectly willing to help win the war, but pro- posed to do it in his own way. To avoid an unjust exaction he abandoned the use of tobacco, and found it a mighty benefit in more ways than one. Since ridding his system of the poison his brain has been clearer, his step more elastic, life’s perspective less cloudy and ominous. Aside from the physical and. mental benefit, he finds himself setting aside consid- erable money, formerly fooled away for that which did him an injury, for the purchase of liberty bonds, by which the government is’ benefited and he is made richer in a considerable sun. Bully for Bailey! LINCOLN’S TALL SOLDIER DEAD. New York Sun. So much ‘has been said of late in connection with the Barnard statue concerning the personal appear- ance and characteristics of Abraham Lincoln that the following article, published in the Reading, Pa., Eagle on Dee. 27, announcing the death of Mahlon Shaaber, ‘‘Lincoln’s Tall Soldier Boy,’’ may be of some interest: During his experience as a soldier Mr. Shaaber attracted much attention owing to his youth and unusual heighth. He met President: Lincoln, who was a tall man himself, in Washington. The presi- dent wanted the young soldier to dine with him, but he proved to bashful to remain. Lincoln gave him a special pass which was afterwards lost, and in saying goodby embraced him in parting and said: ‘If you visit Washington in the future eall again.” _ Mr. Shaaber was very fond of describing this incident. This was at the outbreak of the Civil war. “We were passing in review along Pennsylvania ”’ said Mr. Shaaber on one occasion, ‘‘and avenue, among the thousands who lined the pavement I saw a small group of men standing apart. All were tall but I noticed especially one man, very tall and gaunt, wearing a frock coat which clung somewhat, indifferently to him. He had a thoughtful and’ serious look. his face was pale and his shoulders stooped. : “As I passed this group the tall man called out Hello, Bwb,’ and beckoned. I did not know he was calling me until my captain told me.to obey him. I did not realize whd the man was. I went over to him and he grasped my hand. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, “but it was. jealousy that made me call you out of ranks. I wanted to size you'up. How tall are you and what is your age?’, “T told him I was 6 feet 6 1-2 inches in heighth and 17 years old. He'then drew from his pocket a black covered memorandum book and a stub of a pencil and wrote-in it my name, my regiment and the measurements. Then he introduced. himself in his characteristic , ‘simple way. ‘I am ‘‘Old Abe,”’’ he said. 1 was startled at first and then my back ‘stiffened “with pride as I realized I .was talking!

His train reached Bismarck at 1:30, and he immediately proceeded to the Mc- Kenzie, where, after a hasty luncheon, he talked for a half hour. Then he was spirited away to the high school, where he delivered another whirlwind address, and last night, after carry- ing a big audience at the Grand off its feet, he hurried ove to the auditor- jum and did the same thing over again.

M’LEAN COUNTY HAS‘ 64 REPRESENTATIVES If any one questions the loyalty of Mclean, there is an answer in 64 splendid representatives of that shire who are here from Max, Coleharbor, Garrison, Underwood, Washburn and Wilton for the war conference. Every town in the county ‘has an excellent delegation. They are live wires as well as patriots. T, L. Stanley, Garrison, Capt. Stan- ley, and it please you, is among those present. Capt. Stanley has just re-' ceived his commission from the war department and will report for service April 1. He and Mrs. Stanley have sold The Garrison Advance, one of the militant loyalist papers of McLean county, to two graduates of the Gar- rison high school with the class of 1917, Claude Miners and Paul Gates, bright, energetic young fellows for whoin “Stan” predicts a successful career. “I'd like very much. to have stayed and fought the Hun to a finish‘on our own soil,” said Stan today, “but I be- lieve I can be of more service over there, and things have. been started so well that we can rely upon Garri- son to see them to a finish.” The ladies, God Bless 'em, the most willing war workers ‘North Dakota boasts, are here in force. The hotel lobbies and comynittee rooms are filled with them, earneyt, sincere, intelligent energetic, splendid examples of the 20th century type of the female of the species who in this great struggle with barbarism is proving at least as deadly as the male. Mrs. Kate Blewett, grand secretary of the North Dakota Degree of Honor, is here from Jamestown representing that organization at the war council. ‘No woman’s fraternal society in North Dakota has done, and is doing, and ex- pects to continue to do. Miss Mary McGuinnis of Jamestown superintendent of Stutsman county schools, is here representing the coun- ty educational interests.. Miss Mc- Guinnis is a militant patriot who be- lieves that patriotism has a place in American sckools and who follows up. her conviction with deeds and good works. The Stutsman county schools are making a splendid record for war work.

Judge Bruce pre- sided and introduced the speakers at the luncheon. The first speaker was Judge A. M. Christianson of the su- preme court. He said in part: “The subject up for our thought and discussion is one upon which we can- not possibly differ, It is a subject upon which every American citizen should stand, and stand firmly. Duty of Every American. “It is the duty of every American to follow the commands of the com- manding. chief and make these com- mands effective. “I cannot understand how any man of ‘foreign ‘birth, who has come to this country, and has lived under this form of government, who has been schooled in the principles of our gov- ernment—that all men are created equal and are entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness—how any such person can be anything but loyal. “he people of this country of Ger- man birth have’ no occasion to feel ashamed of that blood—but they have occasion, to feel ashamed of what has been done over there. “I want to say that after the bitter- ness of this war has ceased—as long as time endures, no self respecting decent man .can vindicate or justiiy the invasion of Belgium. ‘Our Boys Over There, “Our boys over there are fighting for the rights of man, fighting for the principles set forth in our Declara- tion of Independence that they may be made universal, not only to the in dividual, but to all the world. “] want to leave with you the words of that great war president, Abraham Lincoln, who said: ‘We accepted this war for a worthy obpect.
