(Established 1873) EES NORTH DAKOTA’S AMBASSADOR The appointment of an ex-president of the German alliance to be North Dakota’s ambassador to America is significant. It is in line with the German government’s selection of Dr. von Haim- hausen, who was a member of the von Bernstorff espionage bund in the days preceding the war, to be Germania’s minister at Washington. Aside from the fact that Jacob Rathskellar of Gladstone was president of the North Dakota Ger- man Alliance at the time when that organization’s national charter was revoked by a lenient congress because of its pernicious propaganda, there are other well-known reasons why he should not be North Dakota’s ambassador to America. But, cheer up! As a matter of fact, Herr Rathskellar is not North Dakota’s ambassador. He belongs to the Nonpartisan league, which is quite welcome to him. The state will pay his salary, because Dr. John H. Worst has named him field agent for the immigration commission, but Herr Rathskellar’s orders will continue to come from the same source. Working as Mr. Rathskellar will among the red socialists of Victor Berger’s home town, in La- Follette’s home state, and in the city on Lake Michigan recently misgoverned by Burgomaster Thompson, he should be of great service to his master. Woodrow cleaned up Wilhelm for us; let’s clean up Bismarck for Woodrow. FLU When science starts out to find the cause and cure of a disease,they exhaust every theory by experiment and until the right one is found. And some of these experiments are on the vaguest possible suggestion. Now, while we are awaiting congress to make the proper appropriation that science may deter- mine the cause and prevention of flue, let us, everyone of us, try a little experiment of our own. Let us try to help ourselves. This experiment will involve no danger, no re- search, no expense, no appropriation. It is not known, of course, that we .will have another epidemic next winter. But— Our experience with it last winter in suffering and death is enough to lead us to every precaution. While ‘many suffered, many died—far more than our losses in the later war—and all were exposed to the disease, yet it is clear that most persons, a very large majority, remained in a nor- mal state of health throughout the epidemic. If this is true then there must be a reason why these did not suffer the disease. The reason, no doubt, is in the fact that those who did not succumb were in a general state of health high enough to resist the disease germs. Let us, everyone of us, begin now to improve our general health and in order to resist the germs in the event of a reoccurrence of the flu epidemic next winter. Let us sleep with the windows open. Drink a glass of water for every waking hour. Eat less of concentrated foods and more of fruits and vegetables, and keep just a little on the hungry side of our appetites. Keep clean inside and out. While the relief for constipation is in the drug store, yet its prevention and cure is in the orchard and garden. | Let us at least walk apart way to and from, work, and keep in the open on Sundays. Practice deep breathing in the open. Do not read the symptoms of flu—leave this to the doctors. Let us not get frightened at the first of those symptoms which we may happen to know. The fear of the disease weakens the resistance to the disease—any doctor will tell us this. Let us not get angry nor entertain resentments towards anyone; for anger and hate create poison- ous toxins in the body and to the lowering of the general health. Some of these suggestions may be foolish, but as stated in the beginning, some of the experi- ments of science may be on the vaguest possible theory. Anyhow, we think that the medical profession will approve of most of these suggestions as a us create and build up good germs for a possible battle with flu germs next winter. Unfortunately Bismarck’s streets cannot be paved with good intentions. From Wilson’s address to congress we gather that high prices are due to a national epidemic of rascality. By all means stamp the manufacturer’s price on the article. Let us know how much we are con- tributing to the middleman’s income tax. In this country men need not resort to revolu- tion except to acquire something to which they are not entitled and which they should not have. Wilson day is less than a week distant. There’s lots of cleaning and brushing and scrubbing and painting to be done in the short time that’s left. Let’s GO. If those who assisted in deporting alien thugs are guilty of kidnaping, we should make kidnaping worthy of the congres- sional medal for distinguished service. The farewell of the Prince of Wales at St. Johns was “without formal utterance.” Is it pos- sible that there is an important personage who isn’t addicted to words? Hun General Kruska will be tried for brutality in prison management, and it will go hard with him if we prove that he was as brutal as our hard- boiled prison managers. Red Tomahawk is coming to Bismarck to greet Woodrow Wilson in behalf of the Teton Dakotahs. Red Tomahawk and Woodrow Wilson have much incommon. Each enjoys the honor of having put an end to the power of a tyrant. When Red Toma- hawk, almost 30 years ago, fired the shot which sent Sitting Bull to his happy hunting grounds, he freed the northwest from the influence of an un- scrupulous, crafty hater of civilization. In a broader way Woodrow Wilson did the same thing for the world when he tossed America’s hat into the ring and chased Wilhelm of Potsdam into Ameroengen. The meeting will be of peculiarly interesting historic significance. The moving pic- ture men should be here to get it. WITH THE EDITORS | THE NEW GIANT “Perhaps it is better so,” a German high offi- cial is reported as admitting. “If we had won, we should have been intolerable.” So intolerable would the Germans have been that, even if they had won immediately, they could not have re- tained their supremacy. And it was because the world sensed what their intolerability would be that the resistance against Germany stiffened, in- creased, became itself intolerant of any German power whatsoever. To win supremacy is one thing, to keep it is another. History exhibits a succession of con- querors, but few of them managed to retain for long what they had won. Assyria, Persia, Car- thage, ancient conquerors, in succession became in- tolerable and engendered their own downfall. Rome alone knew how to conciliate and reconcile succession bid for empire, only to lose because they were intolerable, raising bitter revolts, en- gendering resistances and oppositions. It has been said that it is glorious to have a giant’s strength, but that to use it like a giant is intolerable—as giant after giant has learned to his cost. And yet giants, the new ones, do not much profit by the lesson. They learn their power, they exult; they abuse their power, they are over- thrown. It happens again and again. The last generation saw capital conducting it- self intolerably. But capital has been so well “trimmed” that, if it hasn’t suffered a change of heart, certainly it has been improved as to its head. Capital on the whole is nowadays rather well behaved. It knows what will not be tolerated, and it toes the line. This generation confronts a different giant. The giant is labor, union labor. The giant has grown into strength, and almost everybody con- cedes its right to do so and even welcomes: the strength as a development of social justice, as well as incidentally a balance to capital. Labor is the giant, feels its own strength. So- ciety concedes as much and is even hopeful that the strength will be used in good purposes and help us all to an improved status.’ Yet the ques- tion for. this giant, as for the others, is, will it be- have intolerably? It can make a deal of trouble all around. Ger- many made a deal of trouble. But it is as certain as that Ludendorff came to his Waterloo that in- tolerability will not be tolerated. Society cannot endure impossibilities and eventually ends them, no matter what the cost. Indeed, society has no alternative. If it cannot put up with a thing, it puts the thing down. Our people did not tolerate the intolerability of capital. Neither will they that of labor, nor of any other class, interest, section, part. Labor is entitled to justice and to fight for its rights. Its those whom she conquered. Spain and France in| * FORMER HEAD OF GERMAN SOCIETY AGENT OF STATE Jacob Rathskellar Goes to Ber- ger-LaFollette-Thompson Land as Envoy ON IMMIGRATION STAFF Dr. John H. Worst Favors Town- Jey Organizer With First Appointment Jacob Rathskellar of Gladstone, president of the German-American alliance in 1915-1916, when this organ- ization was most active in its German propaganda in America, and for the last six months an organizer for the Nonpartisan Jeague, left Wednesday for Milwaukee, Wis., as the first field agent of the North Dakota immigra- tion commission, which is headed by Dr, Join H. Worst, president emeri- tus of the North Dakota agricultural lege. i Rathskellar will represent the immigration commission in Milwau- kee, Chicago, northern Illinois, Wis- consin and Michigan,’ Dr, Worst stated today in mnouncing the ap- pointment of his st field agent. “He will distribute literature, call meetings a s them and generally it in talking up North 1 kota advantages with prospective set- tlers.” Dr. Worst admitted that the state immigration commission, whch — has Leen in operation less than a month, has little literature immediate dis- tribution. He is using, however, he informed the 1p 2 ~pamphiets published by the Itural college, and he is now engaged in compiling booklets which soon will be ready for circulation. The act under which Dr. Worst. is operating gives him an appropriation of $200,000 per biennium, which may be expended as Dr. Worst: may direct in advertising North Dakota. Rep. Alberts, a league floor leader, admit-j) ted when the bill was under discussion ; in the house last winter that some of| this money might be spent in “correct- ing lies told in other states about the Nonpartisan league.” Rathskellar has been transferred from the league payroll to the immi- gration fund, and his field of opera- tions has been Considerably broadened. Before the days of the league he was active among old-guard German poli- ticians in North Dakota, and he had much to do with the management of Wishek'’s campaign for goy- x years ago.

A bill incorporating the American ‘Legion was passed by the house of representatives and is now before the senate. It is said the Dill will be passed by the senate this week. Congress now has under considera- tion a bill to allow holders or gov- ernment war risk insurance to decide in each instance whether they desire the insurance paid in monthly install- ments or in one sum upon their death. This has been one of the features of the insurance which has not met with favor among former service men and it is expected that this provision will be enacted by Congress. Samuel T.
