This proves that contact has been estab- | lished with the current of patriotic energy which | is pulsating through the nation today, radiating | from the central power plant at Washington. It is a positive indication that you belong; that you are one of the bunch. : And. Oh Boy! Isn’t it a Grand and Glorious Feeling? Most of us, here in these glorious United States of America, have drifted along, occupied with our own affairs; giving little attention to national mat- ters, secure in the knowledge that we had a coun- try and that it was the best and bravest on earth, but content that others should manage this coun- try for us, and feeling, down in our hearts, that we, personally, did not count much one way or an- other: i Today we discovered that we do count; that Uncle Sam has sized us up and has put us down as one of the men who go to make up his great fam- ily, and as one of those whom he may depend upon. Somehow, it makes one feel sort of different; it makes one feel more important and more re- sponsible, and it brings home more forcibly the fact that a democracy is just you and I and Jack and Bill and the dther fellow all working together in one cause; all united ‘under one constitution; all holding much the same beliefs and ideas, and all striving toward the same ideals. Will we be there at our polling place bright and dollar that we will. And will we whine or kick or quibble when we discover how much Uncle Sam figures we can help on this Fourth Liberty Loan? You.can just bet your last red cent we won't. For even though it hurts, and we don’t expect that it will; even though it may mean sacrificing some pleasure or foregoing some luxury we're not go- ing to be found wanting when Uncle Sam is count- ing on «>. We're tickled all pink to think that after all we do count; that among the hundred million people in these United States we belong, and that Uncle Sam is good enough to consider us one of the bunch. " If there’s one thing more than another that an American hates it is to be left out on a good thing; to feel that someone has said, “Oh, he doesn’t; count—we can’t depend on him—we’ll just pass him. up, but we want Smith and Brown in on this.” No, we like to be in on a good thing, and we don’t | know of a better thing than this Fourth Liberty Loan. Citizenship is going to mean a whole fot more to a great many of us after Saturday. Citizenship is something worth haying, in these United States of America, and anything worth having is worth paying for, and we’re able to pay, and ready to pay, and“by heck, we’re going to pay. We're go- ing to become stockholders in the greatest corpor- ation-on earth, stockholders whose principal is se- cured by the best collateral in the world and whose dividends are guaranteed, in a corporation whose product is Freedom, For All and Forever. Boy Howdy! Let’s go. Kaiser Bill is now about to prove ‘the second '00| Bonds that came out of that little old cash regis- inot be put out of one’s mind. GIVE YOUR BANK BOOK A SERVICE STAR! The man with lots of“curiosity stared at the little cash register in the corner drug store. His curiosity was aroused by the tiny paper service flag pasted on the front and boasting a pair of blue stars. ° Finally he addressed the druggist. “You ARF. in hard luck to have lost two of your cashiers te the army. What branch are they in?” “Two cashiers? Army? Whaddye mean?” —“Those two service stars on your cash register --don’t they stand for two clerks gone to war?” “Oh! Ha! Clerks in the army nothing! Those two service stars stand for my two $500 Liberty ter and joined Uncle Sam’s Treasury Department! Some idea; eh! Yes, and there’s going to be a lot} more stars in that flag before I quit.” Some idea, indeed! Send your surplus dollars to; war if you can’t send a son. If you HAVE sent} a son send al] the more dollars after him to be| sure he’s well fed and clothed. H If you can’t have a service flag in your window, it’s your duty as an American to put service stars op your cash register and your bank: book wher-| ever they will stick!

Memory is merciless only to those who are de- fiant of its power, but it is ever charitable to those who seek its favor in the attempt to crowd the heart and mind with loftier thoughts and ambi- tions. | WITH THE EDITORS tf ecco nn no nnn nnn nnn ens | WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? The Gazette-News of Park River, says that the Non-Partisan League is misrepresented when it is claimed that the intention of the league is to own everything including far.a lands and machinery. However the national platform of the league em- bodies such a plank and it would be no more un- fair for the state to take over farm property than it would to take other property as proposed in the socialistic platform.—The Grafton News. THEIR MASTER’S VOICE Several state papers are advocating that it is right to continue teaching German in the public schools. These papers, however are non-partisan league papers. The state council of defense won’t let us call these fellows pro-German so we will let you judge for yourselves what they are. In our opinion no language but the United States should he taught in our public schools. This is the United States not Germany, Norway, Sweden or any other} country and our language is good enough for | everybody.—Valley City Times-Record.

Frazier is a candidate on the} Republican ticket but his rights as a Republican| were forever forfeited last year when he disfran- chised the party to which he belonged, and proved himself a traitor to the party and its cause.

DOYLE DARES FRAZIER TO DEFEND HIS OFFICIAL ACTS AND THE REC- ORD OF HIS ADMINISTRATION FRAZIER LACKS COURAGE AND COURTESY TO REPLY TO INVITATION TO DISCUSS "CAMPAIGN ISSUES JOINTLY. HERE IS DOYLE’S LETTER. READ IT. “Fargo. N. D., September 7, 1918. “Hon. Lynn J.. Frazier. goo North Dakota. “Sir: f “The 1917 legislative assembly passed through the ‘lower house, and attempted to pass through the senate, a concurrent resolution known as House Bill No. 44. proposing an entirely new constitution for the state of North Dakota. A majority.of the members of the upper house, however, voted against the measure, thereby securing its defeat. Some of the provisions of H. B. 44 are before the people of this state at the present time and will be voted upon by. them jat the general election this fall. It is my understanding that you {favored the passage of H. B. 44. and that you:still favor legislation as expressed in-this measure and in the proposed constitutional amendments. The writer, on the other hand, believes that the final passage of H. B. 44 would have been a direct violation of the con- | stitution of the state of North Dakota, and that every member of | that legislative assembly, voting for this measure, did thereby vic- |late his oath of office. I also believe that many of the provisions jof, H. B. 44, now before the people of the state in the form of con- stitutional amendments, for ratification or rejection, are vicious in the extreme; that they constitute the ground work of a cunning and elaborate scheme for the introduction of a state-wide-socialism and, if put into operation, would inevitably result in injury to the state of North Dakota and consequent loss to its citizens. “The same legislative assembly passed a measure known as Senate Bill No. 84, creating a terminal elevator commission. for the purpose of locating. erecting, leasing, operating, renting or selling one or more.terminal elevators, either within or without the state of North Dakota, and making an appropriation therefor. This bill passed both the house and senate, but was vetoed by you. I charge that in vetoeing this measure you violated a promise of the plat- form upon which you were elected to office. _ “The platform upon which you were elected :to office also pledged to the people of this state an administration of efficiency and economy in the conduct of their public affairs.’ I charge here again your administration has failed to keep its pledge to the peo- ple as.there has been an exhorbitant and un-necessary increase in the conduct of nearly all the departments. of, the state government. “T believe that the voters of the state are entitled to be given every opportunity to gain a thorough understanding of the issues which they must decide'by their ballots, and that you, the governor of the state, and‘I, the opposing candidate, should jointly render all possible assistance. To this end I invite you to meet me upon the public platform in open discussion of the issues herein set forth. It is my suggestion that the number of such discussion, and the times and places where held, shall be determined by a ‘committee of six men, three to be selected by you and three by myself, and the six so chosen to select the seventh man, he to cast the\deciding vote upon all disputed questions. Such discussions would stimulate in- terest in governmental problems and result in a clearer conception by the people of the real issues involved. ° “In order that the proposed committee and gach of us may and that there may be a sufficient number of such discussions to {permit a majority of the voters of the state to profit by them, I | request that you reply to this letter not later. than the fourteenth instant. s \ ‘ “Respectfully,' “S.
