PATTERSON The real Mr. Patterson cropped out Wednesday evening when he, as boss of the Burleigh county commission, deprived of their rights as American} citizens 750 brave Burleigh county boys who are in France resting on their arms after having won| the greatest victory for democracy in all history. | This is not Mr. Patterson the good fellow; it is! the real Mr. Patterson stripped bare to the hide, | the political trickster, the scheming ward heeler who will stop at nothing to gain his ends. The sacrifices these 750 Burleigh county boys have! made, the feelings of their families and friends | here at home, are less than nothing when weighed | in the balance with Mr. Patterson’s own ambi-| tions. i The Nonpartisan league organization in Bur- leigh county, thanks to Mr. William J. Prater, a} bird of a feather, has again elevated Mr. Patterson to the role of boss which he occupied for so many years under the old regime. The services of Ed. §. Allen as state’s attorney are essential to the success of Mr. Patterson’s plans. To secure the election of Mr. Allen, Ed. Patterson had resorted | to the filthiest of dirty politics, and when even) that seems sufficient to insure victory, he calmly flies in the face of every decent loyal American in Burleigh county and decrees that because our boys have been in France fighting for us and because they could not be here at home, where Ed. Patter- son has so well guarded his purse from nearly every demand of the war, they shall have no voice in the making of the laws nor in the selection of the officers under whom they must live when they come home to us again. ‘This is Pattersonism extended to the highest degree. This is the thing that Burleigh county by its apathy, its indifference, its anaesthetizing of moral consciousness ,and righteousness has done to the boys who have fought for us so nobly | and won for us so gloriously over there. We should be proud of the zeal with which we, have safeguarded the heritage of our boys. Editor MEET THE NEW EMERGENCY. Germany’s assault on civilization found the! world, including the United States, militarily un-! prepared to properly resist. Advocates of preparedness in the United States found little sympathy for months after the war broke over Europe. America was finally awakened to the danger to liberty and democracy. The emergency was grandly met, as all the world knows. It was quickly met, too. But while it was being met those who urged | preparedness for peace were wet-blanketed. “This war may last five or ten years,” the ob- jectors to preparation of business and industrial plans declared. “We have no time now to make! peace-time plans in the midst of a great war.” | They were just as blind as those who in peace- igrew and festered ignorance. \last year’s vintage. The politicians, in the nature {hibition of partisatigpzay dice or predilections, © All \and the verdict is now in. It is a definite repudi- sist menace. Now that the war is ended we find ourselves in need of a definite industrial and business program. It isn’t here. We didn’t make it when it should have been made. 7 We'll be compelled-to work hard and swiftly to meet the situation thus created. Of course we'll meet it grandly and well, no doubt. That’s the American way. ; But after this let’s tie a tin can to the fellow who doesn’t believe in preparedness today for to- morrow. DRIVE ON! There’s a philosophie view to take of passing world events. ‘ Originally governments all were small. Then the strong gobbled the weak ones, and despotisms Education fostered aspirations for freedom and republics began to appear. Now republics are rising on the wrecks of the last absolutisms. Freedom is being reborn, Through the tempest of war the world has sailed nearer to the federation of man. The war made it appear that the world was growing worse. 4 Peace shows that really the world was growing better. The growing pains were sharp. must be the reward.

For the substitution of a Republican majority in the House of Representatives for a Democratic majority, blame or thanks, depending upon how you look at it, are due to the President’s call to the Democratic colors. Less than two weeks ago the country was about as interested in the congres- sional elections, with.aaly two or three over-ad- vertised exceptions, as in a screech owl’s nest of of things, were giving attention, but the mass of voters were not, particularly the Republican vot- ers. These electors were leaning backward in+the attempt to support the program of “politics ad- journed.”—Toledo Blade. Mr. Wilson made a grave error when he chal- lenged the loyalty of the Republicans in the Con- gress that shall convene next March. That error will be forgiven him ‘should it not lead to a prejudiced attitude toward the Republican major- ities. In such event the Republicans would still support the President as such, and-lament his ex- Republicans are wil Ng to let history pass upon the loyalty and services of their party during the war and for the period of reconstruction to be entered upon.—Baltimore American, In his extraordinary appeal to the voters, issued just before the election, the President expressed the opinion that the return of a Republican Con- gress would be interpreted abroad “as a repudia- tion of my leadership.” He thus defined the issue ation of a leadership that was believed to be ex- erted in the direction of an dasy peace. For that was the subject on which public attention was centered in the weeks immediately preceding the election—Kansas City Star.

Toward the end Mueller’s influence with the kaiser increased. People of Berlin say that one hour every morn- ing and another hour before dinner each evening these two men spent to- gether.

What is itthat causes teeth to decay? Dentists say—acid mouth—that the acid formed by the fermentation of small particles of food lodged in the teeth is powerful enough to eat right through the hard enamel. An acid-mouth pre- sents a similar condition, Excess acid retards digestion. Food in the stomach sours and ferments, causing pain. Gasses effect the heart action.

This condition still prevails. ‘At this writing we have back orders for eighteen theusand (18,000) gross and our orders each day are double hour daily output. The epidemic, how- ever, is descreasing:in most séctions, the demand is slacbening and we are working night and day to catch up. In. the meantime, we ask the trade to be patient with us. ms ‘ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS HAVE WIPED OUT EXCESS STOCK On October 1st we had on hand ‘at the factory and in twenty warehouses over the country a tremendous stock of VapoRub accumilated during the sum- mer months. ° This is now gone—we actually shipped during the month of October over three million jars of VapoRub. We ure speeding up our factory as much as possible and the problem now is to distribute the fac- tory’s output as quickly as possible. We have , therefore, for,the time being, abandoned freight shipments and are shipping either by Parcel Post or ex- press—trying to give each-jobber at least 2 little stock. IMMEDIATE SHIPMENTS TO DRUG- GISTS IN INFLUENZA DISTRICTS Preference is being given to those sections stricken by influenza. In or- der to reach these sections as quickly as can be, we are, during this emer- gency, making shipments by Parcel Post, direct, to the retail trade, of not more than three: (3) dozen 30c size in any one shipment. We prefer that the jobbers order these shipments for their trade, but to save time we will, if the need is urgent, ship direct on re- ceipt of check or money order. Natur- ally, no-new accounts can be opened during this rush.

HOW, TO USE VAPORUB IN TREAT- ING’ SPANISH INFLUENZA In every. case calla physician-- VapoRub should only be used in con- nection with the physician's internal treatment. * Apply hot, wet cloths over the throat chest, atid back between the shoulder blades to open the pores.“Dry lightly and {rub VapoRub well in ‘until the skin is red—spread on thickly and cover with hot flannel cloths.. Leave the bed covering loose. around the neck, asthe body heat reledses the ingredients in the. form of vapors. ‘These vapors, inhaled with each breath stimulate thé lining of the air pas- sages ‘to. teow, off the influenza ‘germ. In case of head or chest cold, the vapors tend to keep the air pass- ages open; loosen the phlegm~ and make; the’ breathing easier. In addi- tion, VapoRub is absorbed. through and stimulates the skin, attracting the. blood to the surface, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO USE ‘VICK’S VAPORUB' AS : A. PREVENTIVE, It is questidhable if there is any- thing which will prevent Spanish In- fluenza, except avoiding those persons who are spreading ‘the = disease by coughing, sneezing and.’spitting, and iby. keeping up. the .bodily’ resistance by>plenty of good food and exercise in the open air, The Public Health Ser- vice recommends that.the nasal pass- ages be coated with a weak solution of Menthol in liquid. petroleum as a protective. “For this purpose Vapo- Rub is excetient. Just put a small portion up-each nostril from time to time during the day and snuff well back into the head. KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY IN- HALING -VAPORUB ‘Colds irritate the lining of the. air passages and thus render them a much better breeding place for the germs. At the first signs of a cold use Vapo- Rub at once. Melt a little in a spoon and inhale the vapors arising, or VapoRub can be used in a regular benzoin steam kettle, such as: most druggists carry in stock. If this is not available, a very good substitute to use is an ordinary tea-kettle. Fill half-full fo. boiling water—put in half a teaspoon of VapoRub from time to time—keep the kettle just slowly, buil- ing and inhale the ‘steam arising. ’ GREENSBORO, N.
