The governor no doubt was flattered, and we say this in all seriousness. LYNN, IMPERATOR REX “Me undt Gott.” Lenin and Russia. Frazier and North Dakota. As William Hohenzollern sought to be in Ger- man, as Nikolai Lenin is becoming in Russia, so Lynn J. Frazier of Hoople has become in North Dakota, an absolute dictator. With this difference: Hohenzollern was and Lenin is a man with convictions; each possesses or possessed will power and determination and some of the qualities of leadership. Governor Frazier is but a weak reflection of the effulgence shed by his masters. And such masters! Arthur Townley, Bill Lemke and Old Doc Mills, the little gnat of democracy. THE WIDOW’S MITES And Jesus sat ‘over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treas- ury; and many that were rich cast in much. And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which made a farthing. And he called unto him his disciples and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living. An aged widow, living on a farm of a few acres at Craggy Mountain, N. C., the sole support of four orphan grandchildren, walked eleven miles to the West End Baptist church of Raleigh to contribute thirty cents to the Baptist $15,000,000 ; campaign. So you see, the world hasn’t changed so much in thelast 1900 years. And we believe today there | are countless millions of human beings who will say with us that this North Carolina widow gave more than all the others who contributed to the $15,000,000 church fund. WHERE TOWNLEY STANDS No Yank legionaire need be longer in doubt as to where Townley stands. The morning after the murder of four ex-service men by I. W. W.’s in Centralia, Wash., the Courier-News, Townley’s | mouthpiece, explained this outrage as “a sign of the times,” and covertly renewed its charge that the legion is a tool of Big Business—a charge, by the way, which was forced down Bill Lemke’s throat by one North Dakota Yank. A day or two later the Courier-News insults the American legion by casting suspicion upon the integrity of Franklin D’Olier, the new commander of the legion, referred to as “first of all an officer, next an officer in the quartermaster’s corps, and, finally, a Philadelphia wool merchant, and, as such, one of the most conscienceless profiteers in the United States.” On the same page, and printed in a most promi- nent position, and this before the bodies of their victims in Centralia had cooled, was a communica- tion from Charles J. Ross of Fargo, who glorified in the fact that he is a member of the I. W. W., and who says: “Just let the plutes try the injunc- tion racket on William D. Haywood or Eugene V. Debs! ‘They will find that these men are class conscious men and not A. F. of L. jelly fish. Iam a member of the I. W. W. and after seeing what the brotherhoods and the A. P. of L. are standing for it makes me prouder than ever to belong to them, for I know what we lack in membership we make up in nerve.” This is a very mild sample, Mr. Yank, of the sort of poison with which the columns of the Townley press were filled while you were overseas fighting to preserve the liberties which Mr. Town- ley and his fellow socialists abuse. Do you won- der, Mr. Service Man, that almost everyone of the league principals, from Mr. Townley down, was indicted at one'time or another during the war as an enemy of his country? Do you wonder that men of the support of jthat these men are openly expressing understand- ing for the murderers of your comrades and that they see in the Centralia atrocity only “a sign of the times”? ‘ Heinie is trying to hold the election in Upper Silesia too early in order that he may vote to often. Senator Sherman confesses that he has never prayed in his life. We are beginning to think some sort of explanation is in order. Two were shot in the first raid on a New York saloon under the Volstead act. The other patrons were half shot. You can’t always tell. Just as soon as Chaloner won back his status as a sane man he decided to go on the stage. Coal miners insist that they have a legal right to strike. That is a poor consolation while Palmer holds the opposite view. Might as well eliminate the labor question of the treaty. Labor and peace don’t seem to have anything in common, anyway. pone aie WITH THE EDITORS tte tt eet eee SMALLER NEWSPAPERS The tendency of newspapers everywhere in re- cent years has been to grow continually larger. It is a natural course of development, answering to the steadily increasing scope of news-gathering facilties, the increasing interest of the public in national and international affairs, the popular de- mand for features and departmental matter and the advertising demands of modern business. It may become necessary, however, to check this natural course of evolution. A size limit must be reached some time, on account of the materials required and the difficulties of distribution. \ The paper supply is very short. The newspapers of the United States are now using 10 per cent more paper than the mills are producing. The special convention of the Publishers’ asso- ciation, called in New York to consider this short- age of news-print, has voted unanimously to limit the size of the papers. It is evident that if the size of a newspaper page, or the number of pages, is to be reduced, there must be a reduction in the average size of the advertisements, and advertising rates based on quantity of space must therefore be higher. The advertiser need pay no more, but for the same money would be obliged to accommodate his ads to smaller space. Such an arrangement could hardly impose any hardship on anyone if the plan were applied uniformly. The thing that counts in advertising is not absolute size, but proportionate size. The same principle would be applied, naturally, to the reading matter. And it must be admitted by an honest editor that reading matter as well as advertising matter would probably gain in quality and effectiveness from such * “boiling down.” There is too much mere bulk through the average present-day newspaper. — Aberdeen American. AN AMAZING PROGRAM. There will be no hesitation in stamping the pro- posal of Governor Frazier, to take over and operate the North Dakota lignite coal mines as a state enterprise under martial law, as the political program of the Nonpartisan league. It is im- possible to conceive this astounding undertaking in any other light. Acting by the advice of the United States dis- trict attorney, the mine operators refused to sign an agreement to pay the 60 per cent advance of wages, the advance to go, not to the miners, but, into the strike fund of the United States Mine Workers of America. But Governor Frazier found himself in a dilemma created by his previous ac- tivities and the decision of the mining officials to obey the court mandate and recall the strike order. He had favored the strike and promised to take over the operation of the mines by the state, therefore he found it expedient to brazen it out and proceed with the program, with the saving clause that he would revoke the order “if another satisfactory solution were reached.” If the situation were such that operation of the mines became imperative in the public, not the special class, interest, then Governor Frazier was ‘prepared, no doubt, to disclaim all other motive and purpose. But a new status was created by the obedience to law of the mining officials and the North Dakota governor found himself in a quan- dary and planned a course with a possible exit. It is more than likely that the exit will be utilized and his amazing order canceled. The Nonpartisan league management might have descried in the situation an opportunity to play politics to the labor gallery. The program has, its suspicious aspects. Doubtless the league oligarchy would vastly enjoy inaugurating a policy of any kind of nationalization of industry. sIt might be to wonder what the burden-bearing farmer would think of a proposition, ostensibly to.supply him with fuel, but at an advanced cost, the proceeds of which were destined, not to give the miner a living wage or b to, the, _ Work while you sleep, At present the problem of material is serious. |} eet eer BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE ——— i sry pat apt Sen WEDNESDAY, NOV. 19, 1919 } DO IT NOW!. prepared. had before. three fish. gamble with WHAT ISN’T.

GOULDNT LENE HOME OTS | BUT IS WELL AND STRONG AFTER TAKING TANLAC. “Of all the people who have taken Tanlac I believe I have as much cause to be thankful as anyone,” was the statement made to a Tanlac represen- tative recently by Mrs. D. D. Camp, living at 961 Jenks St, St. Paul, Minn. ‘ ; “For years, I just ‘can’t remember how many,’ continued Mrs. Camp,..

HEALTH HINTS FOR OFFICE WORK So far as food requirements are concerned, the indoor office worker naturally will not require as much as a hard working mechanic, espe- cially one working out of doors. But in addition to giving’ some at- tention to the quantity of food it is especially important, in the case of the office worker, to choose foods that will not constipate, for owing to the very limited exercises of the abdomi- nal muscles, the office worker is very liable to chronic constipation. leat once a day is sufficient.

Fully as important in. preventing chronic constipation as diet and exer- cise, are the drinking of water:and the formation of regular habits with respect to emptying the bowels. It is remarkable how completely these meagures suffice, even in stubborn cases of long standing. 3 Many persons attempt to correct the inactivity of the bowels by the drugs, mineral oils, enemas and “in- ternal baths” or by the use of patient medicines. All these are dangerous and should be voided. It is important, in the case of| the office worker that the mid-day period should include some form of exercise in the open air. This does not mean gymnastics or other forms of strenu- ous physical exertion, but sufficient bodily movement to improve the cir- culation, cause deeper breathing, and assist the bodily’ functions generally. “Bracers” are harmful. This ap- plies to the use of tea, ‘coffee and alco- holic beverages. It is undeniable that they temporarily overcome the feeling of fatigue, thus: enabling the individ- ual to ‘accomplish, at that particular time, a greater amount of work. Leaving out of the account the well-known effect of alcohol in dulling the judgment, it must be emphasized that fatigue is one’ of nature’s im- portant signals, one ‘that must. be respected, xperience has shown that the fre- quent use of stimulants of any kind to overcome fatigue very . quickly works serious injury to the ly: F ANSWERED, Q.
