THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) WE WASTE OUR COAL In every trainload of coal hauled from the mines ta our coal bins, one carload out of every five is going nowhere, according to the department of the interior. Ina train of 40 cars, the last eight are dead load that might better have been left in the bowels of the earth. Every fifth shovel full of coal that the average fireman throws into his furnace serves no more useful purpose than to decorate the atmosphere | with a long black stream of precious soot. In other words, we waste a fifth of the coal our | i} miners dig. And, we pay for it, too! fin America is lost. if The price we pay for that wasted coal would more than pay the increase in wages miners ask. Put it this way: We can have as much steam and heat by using four-fifth of the coal we now purchase if we use it efficiently. An essential factor in coal economy is the selec- tion of fuel for the particular plant. Secretary Lane suggests: “The government should sample and certify coal. We do this to wheat and meat; it is just as necessary to avoid injustice in the case of coal, and it is thoroughly practicable. The public should know the kind of coal it is buying. Because it should buy the coal it needs.” Lady Astor says that legislating requires less talk than electioneering. She doesn’t know much about our senate. MAKING BOLSHEVISTS The form of astigmatism which can overlook the 100 to 400 per cent increase which wages have} undergone during the last four years, anq which} sees only the gain in the cost of living is one of the things of which alien agitators of the Emma Gold- man type are availing themselves in the manufac- ture of Bolshevists. We have in this. state indi- viduals and organizations and newspapers which are taking advantage of this same peculiar mental slant. The cosf of living is high, and government in-| vestigations appear to have no effect upon it. But wages are also high, and the cost of production is to a large degree responsible for the prices which the consumer must pay. If it is not entirly re sponsible, then there enters in an element of profitering, and it is the govrnment’s business to ferret out the facts and to lay them before th people. If labor is profiteering at the expense of the public, labor has no more right to expect pro- tection from the government than have the mid- dlemen or the jobbers or the retailers who take from the public profits that are exorbitant. Going off at half cock is one of the best things the American public does: It hag been guilty of this repeatedly in connection with the strained industrial relations of the last year. The unthink- ing citizen who is too ready to join with the agita- tor in his cry of “kill the profiteer,” is doing little more for his country than is the agitator. There undoubtedly is “profiteering” at the expense of the salaried man, whose income has increased very little, if-at all, during the last four years; the sal- aried man has a right to demand protection from all the profiteering factors which enter into pro- duction. There will not be another eclipse until 1930, un- less you count what will happen to treaty obstruc- tionists. Happy solution of the coal crisis: Just stop using coal. There are some great brains in Wash- ington. Palmer now controls the country’s food supply, and we may expect some very encouraging promises. ——— The embargo is lifted and you can import Can- adian wheat if you are careful not to include Can- adian rye. —— Our consular representatives might organize and adopt as a slogan: “All hope abandon ye who of Santa and the profiteer of today.

What we can’t understand is why everybody knows what should be done except the elected officials whose job it is to do it. et ee ee ep | } WITH THE EDITORS I re TO THEIR BELOVED RUSSIA Strange what aversion Miss Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman have to returning to Russia. For thirty years this precious pair have been preaching anarchy in the United States. They have taught the beauties of the absence of all law. They have preached the overthrow of all govern-| |ments, and the coming of the millenium, when| mankind could rule itself without laws of any kind, and, of course, without the machinery for enforcement of laws. During the last two years they have dwelt on the glories of the Russian revolution, and have| painted, always and at so much per paint, the; beauties of the new soviet regime in Russia. But they have fought tooth and nail the efforts to deport them, and even have made use of all the law courts they have been reviling for thirty years | to prevent the deportation order being carried into | | effect. i Yesterday a New York judge dismissed the; writ of habeas corpus obtained by Berkman’s | counsel, and the last hope they had of remaining | 1 They are headed back where they belong—to their beloved Russia—New Rockford State Center. SENATOR PENDRAY’S ADDRESS = > yA i E u Mh Ly HED) / The proposed address by State Senator Thomas; Pendray advertised in connection with the eve-| ning service at the M. E. church last evening was! ‘not given, a conference between Mr. Pendray and; the pastor resulting in the address being with- drawn by mutual consent. The subject was to jhave been “The Recent Legislature and Free Love.” The reason for withdrawing the address | was that a discussion of the subject at that place} might lead to introducing politics into a religious | service. Rev. White had requested Mr. Pend-| ray to speak on the subject and to give a report of | what happened in the legislature on the state li-; brary investigation, and the results of the same. | In spite of the fact that the announcement was | given at the morning service that the address had | been cancelled, the church was packed at the eve-| ning service. Rev. White’ announced that he! (had done everything in his power to tell people) \that the lecture had been withdrawn and that any- one who was disappointed and felt that they had} been unjustly treated would be given an opportu- nity to leave. He stated that in announcing the! address of Mr. Pendray he had meant no harm |but that from the tenor of the telephone messages received Saturday evening, he thought that the ‘city would not afford sufficient police protection | ‘for such a meeting. Rev. White said that he| |had not realized that the feeling on the matter in| Jamestown was so tense, scores of people assert- ing that if Senator Pendray was allowed to speak | they would demand the right to ask questions.— \Jamestown Alert. SANTA A PROFITEER? Is Santa Claus a profiteer? Has the spirit of greed, which has swept the world of late, even invaded the heart of th chil- dren’s saint? Christmas trees a dollar a foot—and dad used 0 go out and cut one down or, at most, pay 25 or 50 cents for the hitherto indispensable center of | he holiday celebration. He could scarcely buy a twig now for that sum. The wat—that overworked and omni-present excuse—is to blame for this latest tragedy. Pine rees, and particularly spruce trees, were cut in such abundance for airplanes and other war pur- poses—according to this explanation—that there is a general disinclination now to cut young trees or Christmas use. And even holly branches will be scarce and high. Surely, you say, this can’t be blamed on the war, too. Holly wasn’t used to build airplanes or ships or barracks or anything else that pertained to war. No, it wasn’t. But there’s an excuse ready, nevertheless. Holly trees, say the dealers, grow chiefly in the south, and they have been cut in recent years to such an extent that they are very scarce, So even holly will suddenly soar in price this Christmas, and» the bright green leaves and brighter red berries which are so\closely asso- ciated with holiday cheer, will be lacking in most homes. ' ] We can’t think of Santa as a profiteer. Santa must be a victim, just as the children are. For there’s nothing in common between our memories | mutual ground between the patron saint of child- hood—the disciple of giving unto others, the advo want, who coins hunger, who brings riches out of necessity. | The memory of Santa—even with Christmas ~ NEWBOOKS ARE sanitary Gorps of a combat divisiou at took one of the les the fighting in France told in “Wade In Putnam's Sons) by Dr. R ¥ putenant colonel of the the late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, has told his story well and gives one] Gr: an intimate insight of the great work done during the war by the medical corps, hoth enlisted personnel and of- fic The book graphic the i pel jormdus organiza ce: y to keep the med r ly equipped, prepare ganized to meet the inrushing streams of wounded and inultilated men dur- ing a major offensive wh an HOLDS CONVENTION (Continued from Page One) farm and that such hours ould be Resolved, That we restat sition, as organized farme voice is for law and order, an hon- ©# est day’ e our po- 1 privilege to labor or “f uare deal for one ana Sit 3 and, uy Bismarck labor rck Commercial preciation to the board and the Bis club for the courtesies.
