(Established 1873) Rad NEXT, THE AIR POLICEMAN New York City is to have a naerial police force —the first in America. In airplanes policemen will watch the harbor and keep an eye on the city for fires. They will be able to run down “automo- bile bandits” with speed and ease. Orders can be sent to them by the new and won- derful wireless telephone. The idea will, spread. Other waterfronted and coastal cities will : soon inaugurate ee aerialpolice Then inland and smaller towns will fol-} low. No doubt we will have federal and state, aerial police forces. The moonshiner and the highwayman and the train robber will find their callings made extra-hazardous. Ideas spread fa Ten years ago Alice Stebbins Wells, a little wisp of a woman, was the only policewoman in the United States. Her heaviest weapon was a powder-puff. Bluff Chief of Police| Galloway of Los Angeles wouldn’t give her pistol) or club and hardly knew how to take this thing of having a woman ‘wished on him” by the club- women of the city of the Angels. Now the policewoman is anjordinany part of the force in most cities. She was-a jewel to England during the war. So the air-policeman will presently come to be! recognized, ordinary.part of city police forces. forces. WHICH LOVES THE MORE, THE WOMAN} WHO FORGIVES OR THE MAN WHO PARDONS? ’ The other day in Baltimore a man was put on trial in the federal court charged with a violation of the white slave law. There was another man in court, the husband of the woman who was the government’s principal witness. And, too, there was another woman in court, the wife of the accused man. | The wife of the defendant stood by him stead- fastly as testimony of the most serious nature de- veloped, such testimony as has broken up thou- sands of homes. “T belieev in my husband. That was her verdict. “The love of a wife for her husband is a won- derful thing,” observed the judge. The chief witness for the state told the story of her relations with the defendant, and it was such a story as has sprinkled the land with divorce court orphans. But as she walked from the witness chair she came into the arms of her husband. He did not shrink nor scorn. “T forgive,” he said. “And, so, too, is the love of a husband for his wife a wonderful thing,” added the judge. ~ What do you say? Is the love of a wife who clings to an erring husband as great as that of the husband who reaches down and lifts up the wife who fell? The records of our courts are filled with stories of forgiving wives, whose hearts welled high with love for husbands accused and convicted of wrongs, which, most of all, wronged the wives. There are few instances of husbands whose love at the moment of the wrong’s discovery, forgives. It may be because the love of a man for his wife is not as great ‘as that of woman’ for her husband. It may be that ban’s love has not the same lasting qualities. And, it may be that wives do not con- side ra husband’s betrayal in the same serious light that the husband is prone to look.ona deceiv- ing wife. Do you think this is the answer? If that is true, then, obviously, the love of a husband who forgives is greater than that of a wife who forgives. If it is not true, then which is the greater love, or— Are they equally, great? That is our answer! I love him.” MILLIONS FOR GOOD ROADS One of the great lessons of wat to ‘América is the impetus given to the good roads movement in the United States, Good, serviceable roads saved France and Democracy in several awful crisies in such a manner as to drive home to American pub- lic opinion the value and benefits of properly laid ot, substantially constructed and Adequately main- tained highways.: Me a | re _| DON’T LET HOHENZOLLERN ESCAPE! funds are specified for aiding states in the in provement of highways. 1922. North Dakota’s apportionment of such aid is approximately $1,142,000. According to the proposed amendment instead of $75,000,000 for the five-year period ending June 30, 1922, $600,000,000 is to be provided by July 1, 1924. This money is to be apportioned among |the various states in the same manner as provided |by the present law. If the proposed bill should lcarry, there will be available to North Dakota |approximately nine million dollars of federal aid, which with an equal amount of either state or county funds will mean eighteen million dollars {worth of valuable roads. | If William Hohenzollern escapes trial by com- | mitting suicide it will be a miscarriage of justice! This man ought long ago to have been arrested jand put under guard like nay other felon. | Holland isn't watching him closely enough. | Keep him alive to'face his judges! Nobody seems to be shivering much, despite the chilly relations between Chile and Peru. The world is still full of a number of things, but Stevenson's verse about the happiness of kings is antiquated. The British army of occupation, accustomed to the eau de vie of France, must.find the eau de Cologne rather insipid. However rotten may be the German beer of which the correspondents complain, it can’t be as bad as American near-beer. So long as they confine their activities to Ger- man soil, we won’t have much to complain of, even if the Spartacides become homicides. Balfour opines that the more democratic states | there are in the world, the less is it safe for de- mocracy. South America’s experience bears him out. Bernstorff, recommending that Germany. get control of several New York newspapers, seems to have taken the Manhattan press at its own. ex- aggerated, self-assessed value as a controller of American opinion. > American business men, in convention, declare the present federal aid law whereby unprecedented Under the existing law, $75,000,000 federal aid was to be available to the states for the five year period ending June 30, UK((sa CITATION HEARING 1 APPOINTMENT OF ADMINIS- TRATOR, State of North Dakota, County of Burleigh, ss.

But, for all their past incomes, who'd like to be in their shoes today? | WITH THE EDITORS NORTH DAKOTA’S TEST The State Canvassing Board of North Dakota has ignored the plain provisions of the State Con- stitution, and by a vote of three to two has de- clared all the constitutional amendments voted on last month to be carried. The junker doctrine of “necessity” has been evoked by the Socialist regime in the neighboring state to get a much desired result, adoption of amendments removing all restrictions on the power of the state to en- gage in private business, North Dakota’s Constitution, like that of Min- nesota, requires a majority of all the votes cast at an election to carry a constitutional amend- ment. Until now there has been no hint of a dif- ferent constrdction. But, “what is the Constitution among friends?” In the campaign for. the amendments the League’s literature warned the voters frequently that there must be a majority of all votes cast to adopt the amendments. But when it proved that they were lost for lack of such a majority, the League leaders resolved to override the Con- stitution and declare them adopted anyhow. Minnesota’s prohibition amendment got a ma- jority of the votest cast on the question, but seems to be lacking several hundred votes of a majority of the total vote. Suppose Minnesota’s Canvass- ing Board, controlled by the “drys” had decided to defy the constitutional provision and declare prohibition carried. What an explosion of indig- nation would have dinned in the ears of the Can- vassing Board! It would have come from drys and wets alike. North Dakota’s Canvassing Board is attempting something just as rank as this supposed Minne- sota case. Four out of five members of the board are Nonpartisan Leaguers, but one of the four, Secretary of State Thomas Hall, has refused to stultify himself at the bidding of the league auto- crats. It remains to be seen whether the State Su- preme Court will make itself a by-word and a laughing stock all over the country by following the same dictation. Control of the Court is claimed by the Townley League, and if it upholds the high- .
