Ciatablished 1878) > ———— RETURNS SLOW An unprecedented rural vote has delayed complete returns, but enough is known to estab- lish a league victory. The farmers have backed their leaders and endorsed the Fargo platform. Indications from scattering legislative returns also insure control of both legislative bodies. North Dakota’s voters, overwhelmingly agri- cultural, have decreed that they desire to try ex- periments in state socialism and emphatically deelare for certain agrarian reforms. It is well now to face the future sanely an give a sympathetic study to the needs and prob- Jems of the farmers whose success is the success of the state as a whole. Governor Frazier’s endorsement should lead him to seek a common ground where the city and country can meet and discuss the issues pend- ing. ” In the coming, Loyalty Week, Bismarck has a. fine opportunity! to’ méet ‘the ‘farmers of the Slopé: rat make their stay here agreeable.: - > It-ig hoped that: out -of this. week’s confer- ence some of the bitterness and misunderstand- ing of the late unpleasantness will be wiped out. _* The’ Tribune is unalterably opposed:to the itinerant’ preachers of a destructive socialism, and a damnable pacifism, but it believes the time: has come in’ North Dakota for'a complete readjust- ment of sentiment toward the economic demands of: the farmers. a _ Team-work is what the state needs now. Th federal department of justice must punish and ferret out’sedition and disloyalty relentlessly, but economic issues must also be faced and discussed calmly and dispassionately. Every man, woman and child is enlisted in North Dakota to help win this war,.and continu- ing the bitter dissention between city and coun- try will.only retard, not help. If the league leaders are wise they will not attempt, while the nation is at war, to accomp- lish economic reforms of an extreme nature. _ In- surance Commissioner Olsness, in his campaign statement, urged constructive, not destructive re- forms. If the counsel of such men as Major Wat- ers and Commissioner Olsness are heeded, Gov- ernor Frazier will find a middle ground that will more completely voice the sentiments ,of his con- stituents. ’ 4 There are abuses in the system of market- ing. The federal. government, clothed with full war powers, has corrected many of them. and North Dakota, in cooperation with Woodrow Wil- son, can accomplish much more in securing a fair and equitable scheme of distribution as it affects’ the products of the soil. Lea Governor Frazier has a fine opportunity for _ BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE them than about the boches in front of them. And, too, many of these mothers ARE hiding tears while writing “smiling letters” to their sons. It would be mighty fine and of incalculable assistance in waging this war to lessen the sel- dier son’s worry and dry the soldier mother’s tears. We ought to make every boy “over there” feel sure that his mother is getting plenty of help, sympathy and sunshine of love from we who stay at home. That done, he will worry less, and fewer mother tears will dampen the letters she writes to him. That is the supreme purpose of the war moth- ers of America—and by doing that these mothers go far toward bringing final victory home to Amer- ica. But this is not all the war mothers’ organiza- tions hope to accomplish. They want to bring to bear upon all war work the great force of their united strength, in food conservation, in Liberty loan drives, boosting war time thrift and saving, and aiding all those war charities so necessary to relieve suffering and save life in our war camps among the peoples wtih whom we stand in democ- racy’s war. No person can help a war mother as much, ae nor sympathize with her so sincerely, nor drive away her war clouds as well as another war mother. - Kaiser Bill and the imbecile crown prince don’t seem to lose any weight because of the food shortage. HOW TO CELEBRATE On July 28 comes the semi-centennial of an important event in American history, the fiftieth anniversary of the fourteenth amendment to the ionstitution of the United States. Upon that day, 50 years ago, was written into the basic law of this land the principle that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to aq |the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.” This extended to American citizens, re- gardless of color, equal civil rights. Now it behooves us to celebrate that page in our national history. And there is no more fitting way than by stretching these “equal civil rights” to include ALL Americans, REGARDLESS OF SEX. We have had half a century of equal civil rights for men only. Pass on to us that suffrage amendment, yqepld-up senators, July 28;i8 near. The Japs have’a system of suicide known as hari kari, wherein: the self-slayer flings himself upon: his: own sword. We can recommend. it to the kaiser as most effective. Berlin papers please copy. LOYALTY WEEK PLAN DEVELOPS BIG. INTEREST Grows Bigget Each Day—lIn- tended Meeting of Defense ‘ Council Is an Event The old story of the acorn that grew into a mighty tree and the snow bali that rolling down a hill of snow soon grew as big .as the hill is being re- told in plans for the, big Loyalty cele- bration that starts in bismarck Mon- day morning and ends Saturday night. What was originally intended as a meeting of the North Dakota State Lefense council has grown into an event. that promises to be of state wide importance and the most extens- ive gathering of war workers ever hela in ‘North Dakota. The intended “talk- fest” met with instant approval. Soon ‘the state Red. Cross association anc| ‘Home Gaurds were included and be- fore the committee in charge realizeg the intended meeting developed into a big Loyalty celebration. State, coun- ‘ty and city officials, became interest- ed and the business interests of the icity got behind the project with a vim. Then the old axioni that “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” ap- peared and amusements for the ex- pected throngs was discussed, with the combined forces of those interest- ed in ‘making the week a signal suc- cess indications are that the celebra- tion will be a wonderful event. Home Guard organizations, men ana women are coming from many : parts Of thé slope. ‘Most of: the companies will be accompanied: by ‘a band. Rea ‘Cross workers*from every county in the state will attend. The three days tractor meeting will draw more than 20,000: farmers,, A monster” patriotic pageant has been’ arranged ‘for the }afternoon of July Fourth. In the morning there will bea patriotic meet- ing at which prominent speakers wilt ‘alk, among’ who will be Corporat Smith of Gen. Pershing's staff. It was originally’ intended that Corp Smith would, talk om July 3 only but the de- mand_ to hear him has been so insist: ent that he has arranged to forgo a yisit to his bome in Boston and talk ‘on July.°4-and_ 5 '‘also. ‘ For the amusement of visitors anc home folks the-C, A. Wortham world’s greatest exposition company ‘has been granted. contract to exhibit his attrac- tions and riding devices on‘the streets. The Wortham company. is. known as “The, most wonderful carnival in the world.” It has been awarded contracts to, exhibit: at. the ‘state fairs. of North and ‘South Dakota; lowa, Minnesota; Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas and ouis- iang.as several’ big eyents. ‘There are 22 shows and rides. with, the company and the daily press'in cities where the shows, have. exhibited ‘declared it was a revelation-of what a carnival could be made. The’shews will be open ey- éry afternoon-and evening during the CHAINING THE TONGUE German authorities have imposed a fine upon Alsatian children who- insist upon speaking the Frénch language ‘and refuse to “study the beau- tiful.German language.” We quote. the last five words from the Hun official’s sentence. The Alsatian kiddies speak French ‘because their mothers and. fathers are French and because their ancestors from time immemorial have spok- en French, because: they«loye-French.:; And they refuse to study the German language because it is in that language that the foulest blots that ever stained humanity and civilization are conceived, lauded and executed. ss We have here a sample of what Germany would do to us if we'lose this war. Our children will be compelled to study this “beautiful” lan- guage of our conquerors and they will be fined if they speak OUR language. Is there still any American school, public or private, high school'or college, in which the “beau- tiful” language is taught? If that school doesn’t watch out some fine morning will see the kaiser handing it an iron cross for its assistance in helping Hun autocrats spread the doctrine of Hun kultur. GROWING CLOSER It is surprising how much closer Americans have come to-their government than they were sterling patriotic service the’next two years as before the war. Maybe that isn’t the correct way the head of a great, if not the greatest agricul- tural state of the nation. He should urge caution so. that nothing will divert from the “win-the- war policy” so well outlined by his state council of defense. It is likely that the struggle between the two factions will be continued until fall. Many will see in Doyle’s: nomination an opportunity to try conclusions with the league again. This is an- other very urgent reason why Governor Frazier should go slowly and indicate to the voters that he is ready to listen to the more conservative ad- visers in the league. It is time for the extreme wing to hold their demands in abeyance until after the Hun is con- quered and the boys come marching home. Let us approach the final election without the bitterness that characterized the primaries. North Dakota is loyal to the core—its loy- alty can be used between now and next Novem- ber to better advantage than feeding the fires of dissention and class strife. HIS MOTHER “T_-wish,” wrote a boy “over there” to a pal still in the U. S. A., “that you’d drop around and see mother once in a while. - She writes: fine _ smiling letters, but somehow or other I have a feeling in me that she’s hiding a lot of tears. Tell’her I’m all right—and make her believe it!” * Not a few of our wonderful fighters standing there in the bomb ahd bayonet line are worrying ” more: About. the.-mothers. they have left behind of putting it. The government has come closer to the people. That's it. There was a time, and not so long ago, when a cry of alarm went up whenever it was sug- gested that our government should become more interested in such of our public affairs as rail- roads, street car lines, meat packing industries, and so on. How “paternalism” was decried! War has opened our eyes. We see things differently now. The federal government rapidly is becoming an efficient railway operator, and is just a step from taking over the telegraph companies, meat industry, and others. Boston is going to run its own elevated rail- ways, and Dayton, O., is going to take over its street car system. Cities all over the country have tried out the municipal coal pile, and like it. One Oklahoma town has its municipal ice plant. Scores of cities are in the electric lighting and power business. And now comes Buffalo, N. Y., with a municipal food drying plant. Farm and garden foods are purchased at wholesale prices, dried and sold to housewives for winter. use. Later on it is proposed to dry food on shares for city gardeners and nearby farmers. Food waste at the city market has been eliminated, all food not sold is dried.

But what we want to know is, do they stand the great- est test of all—the test'of time? Here is conclusive evidence,on. this point from a Bismarck man: J. R. Williams, 212 S.
