She will not barter and trade at the peace conference. She will not ask the central powers to “agree” to do this or refrain from doing that. The United States does not propose to “talk over” terms of peace with the imperial government of Germany because the United States doesnot be- lieve that she could place any faith in the word of that government and could place no trust in any peace treaty Prussian junkers might sign Presi- dent Wilson, in his Liberty Loan speech at New York made this clear. : é Wilson split no hairs and shaded no sentences. He left neither Germany nor our allies in doubt as to.where America stands today. America has come from out of the clouds of German peace terms. There will be no German terms., ; There will be a German defeat. Unmistak- ably, the president made America’s war goal the uncenditional, surrender of Germany. Only by achieving that upon the field of battle ean we elim- inate German terms from discussion at the peace conference, and that as set forth. by America’s spokesman, is our war policy from’, henceforth. This is necessary, the president asserts, because the.world “‘wishes the final triumph of justice and fair dealings.” 2 We can have no justice and no fair dealing from the present government of Germany unless it is beaten into submission and we'can demand justice and guarantee it ourselves. This would follow.a German unconditional surrender. It is the only thing, which will assure freedom, for all, forever. Indeed, the president lays down five principles of peace which are nothing less or more than a demand for freedom, for all, forever, and-he pro- poses to gain that freedom. for’ all, forever, by the final and decisive defeat of the German forces. The president’s peace principles would bring free- dom for~all. And then he goes on and tells how freedom for all may last FOREVER. “— to create in some virile fashion the only in- strumentality by which it can be made certain that the agreements of the peace will be honored and fulfilled,” the president said. We must not only demand certain acts of omis- sion and commission from the German govern- ment, but we must at the same time assure our- selves that Germany will obey not only for a few years but for all time. “It would be folly to leave the guarantee to the subsequent voluntary action of the governments we have seen destroy Russia and Rumania,” the president said. The word of the German ruler is worthless, and his treaties are what he says they are—mere scraps of paper. Therefore. before we may stop fighting “over there” we must have something better than the kaiser’s word or a scrap of paper signed by the German government. There is no guarantee the German imperial government can give the_rest of the world which is worth a pinch of salt. That government is an outlaw, insincere, dishonest and unbelievable. The allies must ‘erect the -peace structure upon a foundation of their own devising. That, President Wilson, points out is a league.of nations.§ | j “Without such instrumentality, by.which the peace.of the world can be guaranteed, peace will rest in part upon the word of-outlaws and only upon that word,” he said. i. “As I see it,” he continued, “the constitution cf that league-of nations and the clear definitions of its objects must be a part. is ina sense the most essential part” of the peace settlement. itself.” FREEDOM may come FOR ALL, at the peace table, but it cannot last. FOREVER. and the “tri- umph of justice and fair déalings”may come, but it not continue unless the league of. nations all dreams of world dominion by any ruler of any race or nationality now and hereafter. -* But the German imperial. government is more bitterly opposed to this peace term than to all the others set forth by the president before Congress last January 8. AS And that is why we must go on fighting hard- er than ever, with more men, more food, more munitions, more ships, more money. The German government-_will accept no real league of nations until it loses this ‘war—not a|* battle or several battles, but the war! It will not have lost the war until it surrenders unconditional- ly. ; The president sums up America’s peace, terms in his demand for freedom, for all, forever, won on the field of battle, obtained at the peace con- ference and guaranteed by the league of nations. Until that is attained, ON TO BERLIN in shop and home, field and factory, training’ camp and trench! MACDONALD VS. NIELSEN, Neil C. Macdonald must be very badly frighten- en when he will resort’ to such tactics as he is using in his campaign against ‘Minnie C. Nielsen of Val- ley City, his opponent for superintendent of public instruction. Mr. Macdonald says of his opponent, through the sycophant press which carries his campaign material: , Sat : ' “This woman candidate is not qualified to be a state superintendent. ‘She has not even a.com- plete high school education. You will not want to employ her to teach even your own older children.” Again, he says: “School supply men who are anxious for-fat contracts are intriguing to secure her election.” _ : : ‘ He uses in opposing the candidacy of Miss Niel- sen, the terms: “Political jackpot” and “financial graft.” These are quotations from one Townley paper supporting Mr. Macdonald. .The same language may be found in political advertisements inserted and paid for by Mr. Macdonald. They have his approval and his endorsement. He is backing them up with his money. In another \Townley paper we find this typical insinuation and cheap attack by innuendo: “No great amount of inquiry by any candid person will be needed to establish:the fact that Miss Nielsen is not, fit for the ‘position _she seeks. There is no‘personality about. this statement and no reflection upon Miss Nielsen herself in any ‘other capacity than as an ‘as- pirant for the position of state superintendent The women of the’state owe it to themselves to find. out the actual facts regarding. Miss Nielsen’s. accomplishments: and ability as an - educator.” e oe : : The facts are that. after completing the grade and high schools of Valley City, which President George A. MacFarland ‘of the Valley City normal,| recently deposed by Townley: because he would not truckle to the teachings of Kate Richards:O’Hare and Walter Thomas Mills, has made the intellecual center of North Dakota, Miss Niélsen . took ad- vanced work in the universities of North Dakota. Michigan and Chicago; she taught’ for two years in the rural schools of Barnes county, and she has always been thoroughly in accord with the rural schools. For thirteen years she taught in the grades and high school of Valley City, which have been adopted by the state educational department as a standard for its model school work in the training of teachets, and she has:been for the past 12 years county superintendent of schools in| Barnes county, a position to which she ‘has been elected six times by a preponderant vote of the people who in all North Dakota are best qualified to judge of her qualifications. ‘She has traveled extensively, and she has held many positions of responsibility where. ability in leadership and or- anization were.demanded | AND SHE HAS MADE GOOD. She is now and has been for many years a member of the executive committee of the North Dakota Federation of Women’s Clubs for four years and chairman of the department of edu- cation of that organization for six years. She has been a member of the state board of education ‘nd chairman of the Woman’s Library Loan com- mittee for North Dakota during the second and third drives ; she is also state chairman of the War Victory commission. Miss Nielsen has no husband to-place in the posi- tion of deputy superintendent of education, should she be elected to succeed Mr. Macdonald. She may be depended upon not to practice the nepotism of which Mr. Macdonald stands convicted. Whether she wins or loses she-will enjoy the reputation of having conducted a clean MANLY campaign; and The Tribune believes, that because of the very nature of the fight with Neil C. Macdonald. has made against her that she WILL WIN, and that it will be for, the best interests of the public school system of North Dakota. Serbs, are going back—back to Serbia.

TRUTH ABOUT | TOWNLEY FUND Encouraging Feature of Doyle Meetings is Attendance of Nonpartisans lay inte cg LEMKE CLAIMS RIDICULOUS Democracy Not at Stake—Only Issue Question of Giving Socialism Reins | Mandan, N,D., Oct, 1—S. J. Doyle, Democratic candidate for governor of North Dakota, ‘today concluded the second’ week of his state-wide speak- ing campaign. He arrived here in the best of spirits,.pleased. with the recep- tion accorded ,him throughout the en- tire territory he has covered and con- fident that.the voters of North Da- kota are deeply interested m hearing the discussion of the issues involved in this campaigh. , :From, the time that Mr. Doyle open- ed_ his ‘campaign a: Carrington two weeks ago he has confined himself closely to the text. He has laid be- fore audience after audience the state. ment of his own attitude toward the varioug pending issues and has. found his audiences:“everywhere responsive and seemingly interested in getting at the facts. ae 5 “One-of the most satisfactory signs T have observed in :ny tour has been the interest displayed by members of thé ‘Nonpartisan ‘league in the doc: trines enunciated in House Bill 44. In that measure the men who are ‘leadihg and directing-what they are pleased to term the ‘league program)’ have put into being “exactly the things they would do with ‘North Dakota's. laws. Time after time I-have been approach. ed ‘by league “members who have thanked me for the statements I have made concerning-these proposals, To huhdreds whom J have addressed the | House Bill 44 doctrine is entirely new. They did not know nor appreciate the significance of the very éxtraordin- ary provisions of that remarkable and unlawful, bill. because I have said all along-that the. member of the North Dakota legisiature of 1917 who cast -| his ballot in’fayor of that-bill violated | hi'soath of office: he violated the véry constitution ‘that he raised his right hand and swore ‘to support: : * “Mr. Temke, the astute politician who leads.the opposition ‘forces, has term: ed ‘this: a.campaign’ invglving the is- sues of ‘democracy versus’ autocracy. It isso ridiculous on the. face. af. it that it hardly needs to be challenged,|- | The only issue involved in this cam- paign is whether or ‘not the people of the state are ready and - willing. to again turn over the reins of govern- ment ‘to men who would give their sup- ‘port and lend their voice.in approval of such a‘measure as House Bill 44. , “I have now for.two ‘weeks called upon the leaders of that opposition to explain to the people of North Dakota why in attempting. to-revise the con- stitution they déliberdtely -dropped the command that patriotism.and mor- alily shoal@ be ‘organizzed as a°funda- mental ‘of our’ school ‘irsfruction. I have héard no. ariswer and the people of, North Dakota “Gre entitled to an explanation. is there*‘a:man or ‘is there a woman in North Dakota who can*object to instruction in: morality and instruction in patriotism? I.think not,.and-yet the chairman of the oppo- sition says the issue is between de- mecracy and autocracy, and fails to explain to the people just why his candidate for governor. went upon the rostrum/before the ‘past legislative as- sembly of this state. and advocated the passige of House ‘Bill 4# eliminat- ing‘ the command that patriotism and |moralify should be the foundation of school instruction. “Out here in the western part of the state where the farmerg are just establishing their ‘homes, where their improvements are few and in the main unpretentious, the question of the sin- gle tax becomes of. utmost importance. Just why the framers, of House Bill 44 should: want to take taxation off farm improveménts_ and place the whole burden of taxation on land is in- deed a conundrum. Surely the ‘farm- ers’ of this wertern district. can not be benefitted by such a measure, a measure that would take from tax rolls hundreds of thousands of dol-] lars worth of property. in/ the more thickly settled sections ofthe state and transfer the burden of tax. from that. property to land. * The ‘farmers out. here. have nothing, buti.land: and {thus they would be compelled to carry a much greater portion they now do.” ye 4 Mr. Doyle-has made an average of from three to. five talka every day since he opened his ‘campaign. He is trayeling each aay. from 5) to 130 miles, and has been especially well re=| ceived in commpnities where the oppo- sition» strength has, been believed strongest. On a single day, for. in- stance. in a series of five meetings, Mr. Doyle talked to over a thousand yoters, and he is’speaking, to from 500 to 1,000 voters every day that he is ‘out, a great many ofthese being farmers who, have been attracted to his meetings because of ‘Mr. Doyle's splendid analysis and thorough going exposition of the real issue now. be- fore the people of North Dakota. | NO REASON FOR IT When Bismarck Gitizens Show a Way.

PLOT IN SHOT: ; =~ OUTOF NIGHT Rifle. Bullet Sent Scooting Through Secretary of State’s Window MYSTERY CAR IS INVOLVED Some mysterious gunman drove up to’ the capitol building in a high-pow- ered car shortly after dusk Saturday evening and fired a 38-calibre rifle bullet through the window in the priv- ate-otfice of Secretary of State Thom- as Hall. The bullet’s course was such that had the secretary of state been seated in his accustomed place at his desk, he would have unquestionably been hit. Mr. Hall.was- not in. the bullet's path, however,‘and the missle harmlessly expended its force on the prick partition wall. - Caretaker Hansen was'so far as can be learned the only man in the build- {ire at the time.

Capitol officials had received warn- ing earlier in the day from_St. Paul of the discovery of an alleged bomu plot, there and of the apparent con- nestion of Bismarck with the intrigue. Authorities were on the watch for possible depredations, and several guardsmen were on duty on various floors of the building. a Why Secretary of State Hall should ‘vave been singled out cannot be ex- plained, unless it be that upon sev- eral occasions he has displayed an in- dependence which has made him.un- popular in certain circles. . There are some inclined to dismiss .the whole matter as an accident. BUY Ww. S.
