Nielson every ves- tige of her authority should come as a great burst of light, rending the last shadow of their doubts. The board of administration did exactly what the framers of the act creating this commission intended it should do; what everycne who read the act with any understanding at all knew it would do, and in so doing the board has given the lie to promises received here in Bismarck less than six weeks ago from Mr. Townley’s own lips. Mr. Townley told us from the balcony of his hotel that Miss Nielson’s authority and responsibility would not be curtailed, but that, rather, she would be endowed with new and broader powers under the provisions of the administration act. Mr. Townley spoke with unction of the “need of a woman’s guiding hand in our educational affairs.” There may have been a deluded few who be- lieved Mr. Townley. To the credit of Bismarck be it said that the election returns proved that the gullible ones and the willing dupes and the accom- plices in the capital city were very few. But out over the state, among the male voters, (Mr. Town- ley had wisely seen to. it. that the women who helped pile up a majority of 8,000 for Miss Nielson last fall had no voice in this election) were found enough men to vote approval for the board of ad- ministration .act. The appointment of George A. Totten, Patrick| ” M. Casey and Robert Muir, everyone of them seared deep with the Townley brand, should have been sufficient warning: to the public,of'what was coming. Mr. Frazier may have selected this pre- cious trio against his own will and better judg- ment. Mr.:Frazier does many things so, Which is one of the several reasons why he-should not be governor of North Dakota. It is reasonable to suppose that when Mr. Fra- zier picked his men, or Mr. Townley’s men, as the case may be, that it was with positive advance knowledge of the course they would pursue. It is a logical conclusion that when the Rev. George Totten sneered at Minnie J. Nielson, a woman preferred by more than sixty thousand electors of this state as the active administrative head of their school system, that he was acting as the personal friend and bosom companion of Neil C. Macdonald knew he would act, expected him t act, if not insisted that he act. : Mr. Frazier, how thoroughly disgusted and ashamed of you and your course in this matter must be every man in North Dakota with one spark of manhood in him. . We are led to believe that even your Courier- News is not proud of this supreme bit of treachery, this last insult to a misled, maltreated and deceived constituency, else, Mr. Frazier, why should your own Courier-News, your personal mouthpiece, re- frain utterly from giving its readers, followers of yours,.Mr. Frazier, one word of what your board did to Miss Nielson on Thursday ? i CHURCH This is a free editorial advertisement for all the churches in this town. It is written to those of us not in the habit of attending church. Tomorrow let us put on our good clothes and 0 to church—some church—and even though we may not be subscribers to any sect or creed. Omitting all spiritual arguments from consid- eration Just now, let us go to church tomorrow with the idea of studying the church as an institu- tion and what it means to the individual and to the community in material benefits, The church has existed for a good many cen- turies. It would not have existed for all this time with- ‘out having some place in the scheme of nature and for benefit -to- humanity. To those of us who go to church tomorrow, and who have not been in the habit of going, we think that the general attendance will be found made up of the industrious, thrifty and more pros- perous of the community. And if this is true, why, the church has had some effect in making them so. While it is true that all prosperous people do not go to church, yet the church has in its time had its effect upon these—through their parents in giving them the right start in life or through The church has at all times stood for good morals, honesty and justice. And all of these are the devices that go to make industry, thrift, prosperity and happiness. Good morals are at all times good economics— all generally accepted moral practices were good economics at some one time or place. It is true that all of us have not lived up to the standards of morality as advocated by the church, and we may not now, but it has at least restrained us in our besgtting sins, or the sins to which we are the most liable, and has thereby 00|kept us a bit better than we otherwise would have been. All persons who go to church are not right; some use the church as a cloak for wrongdoing, but these are relatively few, are soon found out and set apart. The great material function of the church, di- rectly or indirectly, has been to restrain us in the pursuit of harmful pleasures; it has restrained our “carnal mind” as Saint Paul terms it, it has kept us at work, reduced our unprofitable expenditures | and thereby promoted industry and thrift. The way to make the church of more benefit to the community, and ourselves as a part of the community, is for all of us to become a part of the church—some church. It is possible for any one of us to be just as much of a hermit in one of these cities as if we were shack dwellers on the plains, and this by re- maining away from and not becoming a part of the institutions of the community that are for the common good. : There are churches in every community for all; there is some one church for each of us and which we can accept each according to his indi- vidual belief. WHAT THE SOLDIERS THINK OF IT One of the most interesting studies these re- construction days is that of the returning and returned soldiers. What do they think of the war? As typical a statement, and as terse, as we have seen is the message sent a chum by an avia-|. tor officer, leaving France for this side: “Dear Pal: -Deloused, demobilized, delighted.” That nearly tells it, though not quite. A returning officer was asked how he enjoyed the war. : }, “I wouldn’t take $10,000 for my experience; and I wouldn’t give a dime to do it again,” was his summary, Most of them avow it was an experience worth much more than it cost, and avow, with equal dis- tinctness, that never again for them. Those who feared that universal military ser- vice would make us a militaristic nation, with our young men eager for war, for war’s sake, were needlessly alarmed. Indeed the experience of these millions of young men seems to have become the nation’s best assurance that it need not fear, for another gen- eration at least, any general urge to combat. The prize fight has considerable more of glamor to the ringside spectator, than it has to the battered pug, striving desperately to last out the ten rounds and collect his little purse. We never knew a professional fighter who sought a scrap for the thrill of it, and the return- ing soldier will remain returned if he has his say about it. The American army today offers more induce- ments and finds fewer candidates, than it ever did- before. And this is true, to a greater degree, in all the armies of the world, If Kaiser Bill had full control of Germany he would have slight chance of stirring his people into another war of conquest. . Boss Townley finds small satisfaction in his encounters with “Wild Bill” Langer. And how about Art’s prediction that the attorney general would come crawling back into the fold on his hands and knees? ian WITH THE EDITORS 4 I have always, from my earliest youth, re- joiced in the felicity of my fellow-men; and have ever considered it as the indispensable duty of every member of society to promote, as far as in him lies, the prosperity of every individual, but more especially of the community to which he be- longs, and also as a faithful subject of the state, to use his utmost endeavors to detect, and having detected, strenuously to oppose every traitorous plot which its enemies may devise for its destruc- tion. Security to the persons and properties of the governed is so obviously the design and end of civil government that to attempt a logical proof of it would be like borrowing tapers at noonday to assist the sun in enlightening the world; and it cannot be either virtuous or honorable to attempt to support a government which manifestly tends to render the persons and properties of the gov- erned insecure. Some boast of being friends to government; I am a friend to righteous govern- ment founded upon the principfes of reason and justice, but I glory in publicly avowing my eternal Slee tates enmify to fyranny—John Hancock, te a «Mae YE Oe porte aren Mrs. Effie H, Lahr has returned to the city from Seattle, Wash., where teenth triennial assembly of the grand chapter, O, §.

Playing no small part in Seattle’s greeting to the national convention of the order, was the launching of the two big steel steamships, which will soon form units of America’s merchant marine. The first ship sent down the ways was the 9,600 ton steamship, Eldridge, and to commem- orate the Eastern Star meeting, Mrs. Emma C. Ococvock, most grand worthy matron, enacted the roll of sponsor.
