THD STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER. (Established 1873) <i> ——_—— WHEREVER HUMANITY SUFFERS, THE o ’ RED CROSS SERVES “ By THE REV. JOHN CAVANAUGH President of the University of Notre Dame The American Red Cross is a beautiful work of mercy, in which all citizens of whatever faith or race may blend in charity and service.. It has no ambition that our Lord Himself might not bless. Its spirit is the spirit of Bethlehem and Cal- vary. There is no touch of nar- rowness or bigotry or foolishness to be observed anywhere ff its work. Its vision of duty is clear as the eagle’s glance; its heart “is tender and warm as love; its spirit is fresh and wholesome as the upper breezes. Wherever humanity suffers it serves; wherever humanity faints and languishes it cheers. It in- spires the strong with sympathy and the weak with hope. May we not all pray that this beau- tiful ‘society which gathers to its heart the best men and women of all the world may unite hu- manity in a union which will mean the death of misery, of cruelty, and of bigotry. DO YOU REALIZE THE TREMENDOUS JOB AHEAD OF THE PEACE CONFERENCE? The Versailles Peace Conference has an all-win- ter talking job ahead of it. Starting in January it will talk fast, if it calls “time” by June. : Agee es THERE ARE 25 MAJOR PROBLEMS TO TALK TO.A FINISH. AND NOBODY KNOWS HOW MANY MINOR ONES TO TALK TO Count ‘the big“ones, in any order: (1.) Punishment of William the Devil and his chief assistants. (2.). -Constitution of an international court for the purpose. (3.) Creation of a League of Nations: (4.) Abolition of conscription in Europe.- (5.) Limitation, of “military and naval estab- lishments. - (6.) Reparation, financial and’ territorial, by Germany. . (7.) Germany’s future trade relations Wwith-the civilized world. ; = a (8.) Recognition of Germany’s form of gov- ernment—if there is any. (9.) Disposal of the navy taken from Ger- many. (10.) Disposal of colonies taken from Ger- many. ‘Ss (11.) Limits of the new Poland. = (12.) Limits of the new Jugo-Slavia. (13.) Future of Palestine. (14.) Future of Constantinople and Turkey. (15.) Return of Alsace-Lorraine to France. (16.) Return of Italia Irredenta to Italy. (17.) Future of Albania. (18.) Future of Armenia. (19.) Status of Bulgaria and Greece. (20.). “Freedom of the seas.” ” (21.) Future of submarine and aerial warfare. (22.) Belgium’s future status and territorial claims. (23.) Denmark’s claims to North Schleswig. (24.) The Russian problem. (25.) The claims of Japan. If the conference settles one problem each week it will have to talk fast and work overtime. There you have six months’ talking material in sight and the source far from exhausted. “ Let’s be patient with the peacemakers. Think. It took Germany 40 years to prepare for, and 51 months to lose the great war. -It took the Jews 40 years of rambling in the wilderness to reach the Promised Land. The fast-growing tree rots quickly. The quick peace always has flows. This peace must be flawless if it is to last. Plenty of time must be taken to hammer out a good piece of work. 3 We can go right on making and keeping peace at home, meanwhile. We can go right on making and keeping peace at home, meanwhile.

Who, pray, is going to buy bonds offered for that purpose under the sanction of existing North Da- kota laws? Leaders of the league assert the people of North constitutional amendment under which the priv- ilege of the state to go into debt is greatly broad- ened and that in this alleged amendment is to be found full sanction to issue the necessary bonds. The state canvassing board has recorded by a ma- jority vote its indorsement of this view. Saying a thing is so does not make it so—a fact that is of peculiar interest to investors in any kind of bonds. More competent authority than the league leaders and a majority of the state canvass- ing board takes the position that the proposed amendment in question was not approved at the polls. Embraced in this authority is the North Dakota state constitution itself. This document plainly prescribes that no proposal becomes a part of the constitution unless it receives a majority of all the votes cast at the general election. Five widen the state’s power to obligate itself in debt, failed to receive such a majority. Despite this fact the league bosses and the canvassing board declare the proposals approved because they re- ceived a majority of the votes cast upon the spe- cific questions involved. ; Justice James W. Robinson, elected a member of the North Dakota supreme court two years ago by voters of the league, is one who announces in ad- vance of a prospective formal decision by that tribunal, that the five proposals were rejected un- der the terms of the constitution. He calls timely attention to the fact that-even if the present su- preme court, or that court as it will be consituted next month, should uphold the action of the can- vassing board, its decision would be subject to re- pudiation and reversal a few years hence with a change of the court’s personnel. “The result is,” he adds, “that a purchaser of state bonds or any person acting under the ques- tionable amendments will have to be wary and take his own risks, regardless of any decision.” Justice Robinson’s informal discussion is inter- esting and important, though it scarcely was needed by prospective bond buyers, unless by those Dakota approved at the recent election a propos:d| of the league’s proposals, including the one to] ~ rab: BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE THE INDIVIDUAL.

Staff Correspondent. New York, Dec. 19.—Will New York go dry—really dry? Some folks doubt it. drys are skeptical. who have a childlike faith in the infallibility of the Nonpaftisan League and the judgnient of the men who steer its destinies. We are reminded in this connection that various missions created to administer these laws. It would be a novel experience for one of these com- missions to pass upon the admissibility of bonds offered for sale by a sister state, but the thing seems possible in the case of theseproposed North Dakota bonds. Asa matter.of fact, there probably is no business. man of-gound judgment in North Dakota who believes:the bonds could be sold under “MARRIED BY THE KAISER’S ORDER Loveless, indeed, was the mariage in 1906 of Bertha Krupp, Germany’s cannon queen, to the former young Prussian diplomat, ‘Dr. van Bohlen und Halbach, that nominal director of the great death factory at Essen. . To every decent minded man and woman there is something repulsive in entering the sacred state of matrimony by order. Today Bohlen and Bertha Krupp are man and wife, tied together irrevocably, simply because their marriage was by order of the kaiser. Millions of marks were lavished to make the ceremony the most talked of function in the world at the time. Kings, emperors, statesmen, diplo- mats and notabilities of every nation showered their gifts and congratulations upon the young couple. Both thé kaiser and kaiserine which fol- nent figures in the round of festivities which fol- lowed the actual imposing ceremony. Yet me- thinks Bertha Krupp would have sacrificed much of the wealth which surrounded her td have been able to nestle in the arms of a man she loved. It was known in secret service circles that when the kaiser first mooted the idea of marriage be- tween his god-daughter and von Bohlen both in turn, separately and together, protested against the marriage. They had not a spark of affection for each other. Indeed the hearts of both dictated in other directions. : But his majesty was obdurate. He had not, he said, decided upon the step without the most careful consideration. Fredrich Alfred Krupp had left no male heir. The name of Krupp must be perpetuated. He had looked around, but could not than Bohlen with his inventive genius, his unsur- passed knowledge of explosives, his wonderful grasp of the intricacies of Krupps with which he had been so long and honorably associated.

Sure!” Police Declare. “The New York police will see that the law is strictly and impartially obeyed, let the sparks fall where they may.” Nobody smiled. So much for two official points of view.

Peo- ple will continue to take after-theatre suppers even if ‘they cannot get in- toxicants. Our 'récetttly open soda water fountain is packed until closing time.” Phil Kennedy, the Waldorf, whose cocktails are spoken of reverently both sides of the’Migsissippi, mourns: “I suppose people will take to soft drinks. But I can't imagine this bar turned into an ice cream parlor. It would hardly be the same.” A feeling of quiet resignation per- meates the other big places—the Pla- za, the Biltmore, Sherry's and Del- monico’s.
