Secret diplomacy has not been entirely abol- ished in international relations, even if we did win the war. But secret diplomacy MUST and SHALL be abolished in domestic relations—the relations be- tween capital and labor, between a man and his employer, between the whole people and the spe- cial interests that serve them. When the Round Table conference between capital and labor and the public convenes at the White House Oct. 5 let this be understood— There must be FULL AND COMPLETE PUB- LICITY. The public, through the newspapers and na- tional organizations, must be admitted to all ses- sions of the conference. Nothing must be settled behind closed doors. All debates must be public property. There must be no executive session. This newspaper had much to do with bringing about the conference. The plan was first pre- sented through our columns. For months we urged it as a prelude to the peaceful solution of our industrial difficulties. This solution must not be impeded and SHALL NOT BE impeded by official censorship over the deliberations of the conferees. NO SECRET DIPLOMACY! WASTING WEALTH The United States National Museum has pre- pared a series of exhibits to aid in the conserva- tion of natural wealth—coal, fertilizers, petro- leum, water power and gas. Gas, for example, which pours from the earth in vast quantities in, the oil regions, is being ex-) hausted by wastefulness. Every year an increas- ing number of towns are compelled to augment their natural gas supply with artificial gas, which eats into the precious reserves of coal. The exhibit demonstrates how fortunes are dis- sipated through the misuse of gas. Wells drilled for oil are abandoned while enough gas pours out to light cities and run.great manufacturies, Un- less the gas can be immedaitely utilized commer- cially, no one cares what becomes of it. Wastefulness depletes our forests; gréat sources of power in our rivers await the exploita- tion of private capital; profit, not public need, dic- tates the operation of our mines. What the government is attempting through the National Museum is commendable, but instead of PLEADING for conservation, the government should be ENFORCING conservation. Control of what nature has bestowed should; rest with the people of the United States, not with selfish interests whose sole concern is the piling up of dividends. THE POWER OF MIND OVER MARKET Wall Street knows well enough the effect of thoughts and emotions on the. market. It is fact that the consumer’s;STATE OF MIND has a great deal to do with the high cost of everything. Panic breeds panic, and reckless buying makes reckless prices. Men in a position to know assert that the price-peak has been reached—if the American people will recover their common sense. Richard Spillane, the foremost American writer on busi- ness and finance, holds the public largely respon- sible for extravagant profits and says that there is no good reason for further advances in living | expenses. The owner of a system of lumber yards in the middle west said: “Lumber prices are entirely too high. But what can we do? The people have the idea that prices will be higher next year and are trying to get ahead of the rise. Our customers are bidding against each other. You know the result.” Agitation should serve to bring prices down, not. elevate them by alarming consumers. The days of the profiteer are numbered; the best in- tellects in the country are bent on economic re- form. Conditions in America are better than in any other country in the world— AND THEY WILL GET BETTER SWIFTLY! . WHISKERS AND ILL TEMPER Our barber tells us that if we want a smooth shave we must compose our mind. \ “The man who gets into my\chair all mad and uncomfortable is the man I can’t shave. _Bad temper seems to stiffen the beard and each hair sort of stands up and fights the razor.” So says - the barber. If the human hair and the human hide are so seriously affected by, a grouch what must happen to the delicate and hidden seats of our being? Probably some day it will be discovered that ill temper, worry, envy, malice, hatred give definite physical reactions. We do know that the hopeful, cheerful invalid does more for himself than the doctors can. We do know that persistent belief in the sick- ness of any part of the body will produce sickness there, without other cause. If a whisker gets mad, and if there is real truth in the ‘idea of the hair bristling through fear or rage, certainly we should know about it. Certainly it would help a lot in the present sus- picious era if all of us could feel that our ill temper definitely injures our health, shortens our life, and heaps misfortune upon us. If, for our own personal, selfish benefit, we kicked out spleen and all grouchiness and really loved one another it would be a much more pleas- ant world. Most of the present fight and costly fussing between capital and labor appears to be based on a persistent grouch, on mutual envy and suspicion. If labor believed that capital was not entirely selfish, and if capital felt that labor was only try- ing to get what it believed it was earning, all the rest of the argument would be soon settled. While half of us hate the other half any peace pacts will be mere bits of papers. RATIFY! There is a close parallel between ratification of the covenant establishing the league of nations and ratification of our federal constitution. Some may not agree with Mr. Gladstone that “the American constitution is the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man.” No one, though, will doubt it marked a great advance in human industry. Only the perils and mutual dependence created by the revolution held the states together under the Ar- ticles of Confederation. If our federal constitution had not been adopt- ed, we might have had, instead of our national union, another Europe, cut up into many nations quarreling, and often warring, with each other. It must be remembered the thirteen states were then more widely sepaarted from each other, in-respect to communication, than are any of the charter members of the league of nations. The federal convention which adopted the con- stitution and submitted it to the states for ratifica- tion embraced, the most distinguished and trusted men in our republic. There were Washington, Franklin, Hamilton, Madison and 51 others. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were. in Europe, Patrick Henry, Richard Henry Lee and Samuel Adams disapproved of the convention. When the constitution was submitted to the states it was assailed with great bitterness. If ratified, it was said, it would rob the people of their liberties. Especially in the great states of Virginia, New York and Massachusetts there were long and bitter contests. The result was in doubt almost to the end, and there was only a narrow margin in favor of ratification. At the most critical period Washington, who had been chairman of the convention, threw him- self into the breach with the infallible judgment of his which always saw the way to victory. He said: “The constitution or disunion are before us to choose from. If the constitution is our choice, a constitutional door is open for amendments, and they may be adopted in a peaceable manner, with- out tumult or disorder.” The constitution was finally ratified. Twelve amendments were submitted by the first congress, ten of which were adopted. Those who wish to pursue the subject further will find a most interesting narrative-in Fiske’s “The Critical Period of American History.” President Wilson says the covenant is the best that can be obtained at this time. This league of nations or international anarchy are before us to choose from. If the covenant is ratified, amend- ments may be proposed. If we cannot get them adopted, we can withdraw from the league within two years. Neither the treaty nor the covenant are all we could desire., But they are infinitely better than no league of nations. They are a long step.in ad- vance of international anarchy, For that reason, if none other, they should be ratified. Truthful epitaph for the average man: “He was born; ate, slept, worked and died.” This much talked about “American standard of living” is in reality no more than an American standard of spending. It’s Unique Train That Carries; 174 Accused of Bisbee Depor- tations to Douglas Daily for: Trial. BY ROBERT P DORMAN N. E. A. Staff Writer and Photo- grapher Dougas, <Ariz., Sept. 17. tion Special No. 2—On time. Despite railroad strikes, tourist travel, and all other troubles to which} railroad schedules are heir. this sign] has been hung up every afternoon in the local depot. For the train, better known through- out Southern ‘Arizona as the “Kid- nappers’ Special,” has daily arrived on time to the minute. The “Kidnappers Special” is pro- bably the most unique train of its kind in the history of the southwest. Daily it brings to Douglas 174 pas- sengers charged with kidnapping as a result of their alleged part in the de- Portations to Columbus, N. M., that followed the I. W. W. efforts to induce the copper miners of the Warren dis- trict to strike in’ June, 1917. When the cases now being heard, known as the ‘blanket warrant cases,” were set for trial, it was found, upon examination of the lists of the defend- ants, that practically every city and county official, police officer, banker, lawyer, merchant and mining men of the Warren district, waich comprises; the towns of Eisbee, Warren and Lowell, was named thereon. \ The defendants lived more than 35 miles from Douglas, the seat of the hearings. To attend the daily sessions of the court it would have been necessary for the men to remain in Douglas, which meant that all business. activi- ties in the Warren district would have ““Deporta- been suspended. EVERETT TRUE’ Pay THAT Bue 7 Sat NOT. t SHOULD IT’S OUTLAWED ——_—— ———— BISMARCK DAILY ‘TRIBUNE GET THIS FELLOW FIRST | “THE KIDNAPERS’ SPECIAL” Bisbee would have been without its mayor and all city, officials. Its police department would have! ceased to exist. The mines would have been without shift bosses, foremen, managers or superintendents. Stores and banks would have been compelled to close, as practically all employes would have been in Doug- Has. And so conferences were held be- tween attcrneys for the state and for the defense. i It was decided that only afternoon sessions of the court would be held. Thi8 would give the defendants a chance to attend to their daily affairs in the morning. And in order to keep the lost time to a minimum, a daily special train was chartered. Thus the ‘“Kidnappers’ came into existence. It consists of two coaches and an express car which has been turned into a temporary kitchen. Each man-on boarding the train, finds in his seat a lunch of sandwiches and fruit. From the express car kitchen comes the negro waiters with hot coffee and cold milk. And while the train winds its Special” way j through the copper hills toward Doug- las, the men finish their noonday meal. (Millionaire mine owner and salaried mine mucker sit side by side, joking and laughing together, any class dis- tinction which may have existed in the past, forgotten in the fact that they are now in the same boat.

What I’ ate would sour on my stomach, and cause gas to form so bad that I would be in perfect misery for hours at atime. Sometimes this gas was so bad that it would almost cut my breath off. In addition to this, I had rheum- otism in my arms and legs, and some- times the pains were so severe that I just thought I couldn’t stand it an- other minute. I was badly constipated al) the time, too, and had to take a laxative every day. Of course, I was under treatment, and was taking medi- cines all the time, but instead of get- ting better, I just gradually grew worse. “One day my daughter brought in a bottle of Tanlac, and told me that she had read and heard so much about it that she just felt like it would help me, I had no idea that Tanlac would do me any good, in» fact, I was so discouraged over my condition that I didn’t believe there was a medicine on earth that would ever overcome my troubles. Any Way, I commenced tak- ing Tanlac, and to my great -surprice, I commenced to feel better in a very short time. Why, before I had fin- ished that first bottle, I would actual- ly be hungry when I woke up in the morning, and would eat a_ hearty breakfast, I just kept on taking Tan- lac, and now my troubles are all gone, und I haven’t felt.so well for, many years. My appetite is fine, and, I eat three big meals every day” and, never suffer 2 particle afterwards. The rheumatism is: gone, too,.and I: never have an ache or pain of any kind now. My entire system has been greatly built up, and I am so happy over my wonderful improvement that I tell everybody I meet that Tanlac is re- sponsible for it.” Tanlac is sold in Bismarck by Jos. Breslow, in Driscoll by N. D. and J. H. Barrette and in Wing by H. P. Homey: vt. ses, ae wil] practise medicine. Dr. Dunlap was formerly associated with Quain and Ramsted of this city and left to center the army. He served in the medical corps for many months.
