(Established 1873) —— HIS BITE WE CAN ENDURE, BUT DRAT HIS BARK We don’t know how it is about you, gentle reader, but as for us we loathe a mosquito above all the carnivora. Lions and leopards and wolves and negihbor- hood cornet players we can brave. The family cook does not terrify us; because we married her. We can face with fortitude beasts of jungle and American suburb, but when sister mosquito comes around we slink and shudder and shiver. Aye on the hottest July night, when shects scorch our pin-feathers, and pillows are self healed hot water bags, still we shiver at the approach of a mosquito. The lowly bug who infests public sleeping places has a bite that’s bitter, but he does his busi- ness silently, and, at the break of day, waddles his plump self to decorous hiding. But the mosquito comes whiing and buzzing and screaming about, “Zum, Zum ZEE; I’m goin’ to bite an ear off you, mister man,” he yells. And we slap at large in the night. “Zee, Zee; never touched me; just for that I’m goin’ to puncture your blessed hide in seven new places,” she screams. We toss and we slap and we gesticulate in the darkness. We get mad and hot and excited, and all the time that dratted beast buzzes and buzzes. It doesn’t light anywhere, it just soars, and dives, and volplanes, and side twists; mostly right over our ear. A devilish beast surely; a booster, a braggart, an unfair fighter; and getter of goats without peer. We find screens and netting of no avail, for the tribe of mouthly bluffers whine like dum. dym bullets just outside, and keep us awake with their threats. And you never know whether the whining devils are just inside or just outside. Like a nervous bee man with an old veil, hand- ling a nervous swarm; he will swear that ever screeching bee is inside the veil and just going to bite a hole right into his mortal inwards, ARE YOU WILLARDING, OR WORKING? Since editorial sermons are still occasionally preached concerning the bout between Cain and Abel, perhaps it is not too late to offer a sermon- editorial on the conflict between Willard and Dempsey. The burden of this sermon is such an old one that it would not be offered, were it not so patent that as prominent a citizen as Mr. Jess Willard would never took the trouble to learn it. If he, why not others; possibly you? People who saw Willard “training” with his sparring partners agree that he played instead of worked, that he was at all times confidently care- less and that he seldom or never called for real action from his hired opponents. People who saw Willard enter the ring will bear witness that he entered upon the championship contest in exactly the same way. He smiled around upon the audi- ence, as if he were the speaker at an annual church picnic, he sauntered to the center of the ring, he tapped his opponent lightly in the face a couple of times, and when he and his adversary came to- gether and were ordered to “break,” he threw both arms wide and stepped back as gracefully as if the referee had ejaculated “Dos-a-dos!” at a country dance. In a word, he carried the psychol- egy of his previous play-contests to his work con- test. Dempsey pursued diametrically the opposite course. His practice bouts were real contests. He fought all the time and once or twice he came rather near to getting the worst of it in them. He entered the ring in a willing, winning, hard- working state of mind, because he had been in the same state of mind for weeks. He landed the first hard. blow, because he had been in the habit of landing hard blows for weeks and months, and the first hard blow practically won the fight. ‘Tf. Mr. Willard will look into his Longfellow, he will find a line to the effect that “Life is real! life is earnest!” and among the copy-book lines of his school days, he may recall “Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well,” to which he might add that “Shirking is.a. harder habit than working,” and that the psychological process of weeks can- not be undone in seconds. The ex-champion has paid the price for these lessons.. What about us? Are you and I Willard- ing in our working? Add to the problems of modern life: The hig! AN AMERICAN’S PLEDGE By Vice President Thomas: R. Marshall. I believe that the American Republic as insti- | ga-e—e=e—eme—e—e—e—a—s—o—a— 20a o ane tuted by the fathers constitutes the finest system of government ever ordained among men and affords the machinery for the righting of griev- ances without resorting to violence, tumult, and disorder. I believe that every inequality which exists in the social and economic condition of the Ameri- can people is traceable to the successful demands of interested classes for class legislation, and I believe, therefore, that practical equality can be obtained under our form of government by reme- dial legislation in the interest of the American people and not in the interest of any. body thereof, large or small. I believe that there is no justification, in a government where officials are elected and laws made by the people, for a minority to threaten’ bloodshed and anarchy unless the majority shall submit to the will of the minority. - I believe that America belongs to American citizens, native and naturalized, who are willing to seek redress for their grievances in orderly and constitutional ways; and I believe that all others should be taught, peacefully if we can; and forc- ibly if we must, that our country is not an inter- national boarding house nor an anarchist cafe. I pledge myself to the support of these prin- ciples by my voice, my vote, and, if need be, by my fortune and my life, and I promise my country to train my children in this most holy faith. Wilson’s enemies are quoting his assertion that “the United States will enter into no special ar- rangements or understandings with particular na- tions.” We still believe that he knew what he was talking about. f “I will myself decide on my life or death,” says the crown prince. Well, half of that may be-true, and that’s a good batting average for a Hohen- zollern. Ohio stood for the fight, but won’t: stand for the movies of it. Virtue always triumphs over vice when there is threat of too: much publicity. Holland’s reluctance to part with the kaiser may be due to the fact that she stings him $16,000 a month for local taxes, not counting income tax. Borah calls the new treaty, with France thd; obituary of the league. Even that can be endured if it proves an obituary for the Hun. The senate continues to do its utmost to force a third term on President Wilson. Sees | WITH THE EDITORS __ | sellat sds DAYLIGHT SAVING Perhaps the chief benefit of President Wilson’s veto of the bill carrying as a “rider” the repeal of daylight saving is that it gives opportunity to re- consider the whole subject. The president states briefly the powerful arguments for the plan. There are strong objections to it on the part of the farm- ers. But now the president has opened the way for an effort to make a reasonable adjustment. of conflicting claims. If the veto is now upheld, as it should be, congress could.later see if a-new:and more satisfactory piece of legislation cannot ‘be devised. The statute might provide that the hours of departure of milk-trains should be fixed ‘so as not to make daylight saving too inconvenient for dairy farmers. The hours of labor on farms could possibly be legislated for in a spirit of reasonable compromise. The whole matter is one requiring careful study and fair decision. It ought not to be dealt with hurriedly by a “rider” on an appro- priation bill. Ample time remains for considered action, as the repeal would not, in any event, take| effect this year. By sustaining the president’s veto, congress will put itself in position to legislate on the subject with deliberation and with the in- terests of the entire country in mind—New York Post. THE MIDDLE WEST The presentation of Frank O. Lowden’s name for the presidency by an Illinois representative gives a confident answer to the question, “What’s the matter with the United States?” It needs a dose of the Middle West. For years literary men and sociologists have described the Middle West as spiritually the heart of the nation—full of common sense, enterprise, patriotism, and charac- ter. Mr. Smith discerns real political capital in the impressive tradition that between Indiana and Kansas is to be found our soundest Americanism. Lowden was born in Minnesota, educated in Iowa, and became governor of Illinois; and “because he is of the Middle West he is inspired by the un- frilled Americanism of the Mississippi Valley.” The Middle West is “entirely surrounded by the United States.” Lowden’s “ideas have been fash- ioned in an environment purely American.” While men on the Pacific coast are obsessed by Japanese and Mexican ‘prejudices, men from the East swayed by European influences, we can remember with Lowell that to make the first American na- ture turned to prairie soil. Mr. Smith shows judg- ment. “Americanism” in this connection is mean- ingless, and one section has as much as another. But the republicans see no commanding figure, and under just such a cry they may turn to just such a man as Lowden—who, for the rest, has shown administrative ability and political skill— pieliribeair cs "PL ae.

SPENT A SHALL FORTUNE, HE SAID Chappell Suffered Fifteen Years Be- *_. fore Finding Relief—Praises Tanlac. Remarkable, indeed, was the state- ment made by W. D. Chappell, a well known painter and paper hanger, liv- ing at 311 South Franklin street, St. Paul,, Minnesota, while in the St Paul Drug Company’s store, recently. Mr. Chappell.declared that three bot- tles of Tanlac have done him more real good than other treatment. and medicines that have cost him a small fortune, which he has paid out during the past fifteen years trying to get rid of a bad case of stomach troubls and kidney complaint. “For fifteen ‘years,” said Mr Chap- pell, “I have suffered from stomach trouble and painful, disordered kid- neys. My appetite was gone and the gas from what little I did eat would bloat me up terribly, causing intense pains in my left side and about my heart. My kidneys disturbed me so at night that I never averaged more than about three hours sleep and the pains in my back were so had that it was agony for me to bend over and straighten up. Iwas alsa hadly con- stipated and felt tired ont all the time. I have spent a sniall fortune trying to get rid of these troubles, but only got: worse, This spring I got in such a bad shape I was furced to quit work entirely. “A.man -I knew personally, one whose word I could not doubt; rec- ommended Tanlac to me and, while I have taken only three bottles so far, the medicine has done me more real good than everything else I have ta- ken combined, and I am still taking it and improving right along. My stom- ach feels almost liké a new one anil my kidneys’are in much better shape. I am sleeping better at night than I have in years and I get up in the mornings feeling like work. My ap- é petite is so good that I just want to ¥ f eat all the time and since the gas has stopped forming on my stomach I am not: troubled ‘any more with pains in my side or about my heart. ‘fan- lac conmmenced to build me up be- fore I had finished the first bottle and I have ‘been steadily improving ever since. I had about given up hope of ever finding a medicine that would help me, so you may know how thankful I am that Tanlac came my oH way, and I aml glad to pass the good word along.” Tanlac is.sold in Bismarck. by Jos.
