"TIS SAD, “TIS TRUE ernor Frazier must feel as he sees, in the rapid progress which Uncle Sam is making with the deportation of the Reds, the revolution which he so cheerfully predicted as a possible expedient in his Labor day speech going glimmering! WHY NOT ADVERTISE IT! Why are we all so much more anxious to adver- tise bad news than good? Why, when it chances for a night or an hour to drop to 40 below, do we make haste to tell our friends back cast, whereas during weeks such as we have been enjoying of late, when North Dakota is balmier than Texas, we do not think to joyfully inform folks in other states of the good news. Why not, for instance, when next you write “back home,” or wherever those friends may be, casually note the fact that “they were playing golf at the Country club on Sunday, January 4.” It would probably surprise them more and gratify them fully as much as, though you were to tell them that the mereury went down to 106. below zero in the sun on January 4, and it would do North Dakota much more good. f ‘LANGER WAS BORN LUCKY Bill Langer was born lucky. Always something has turned up in his political In Morton county it was the bootleggers and blind-piggers whom no one else seemed to have the nerve to round up. ( Then came the famous Minot raid as attorney general, a good publicity stunt whatever else it may have been. And lately we find the Townley gang in the legis- lature making a first class twentieth century model martyr of Fighting Bill. And only last week, Theodore (Two-Bit) Nel- son comes out in the Courier-News and disowns him as a gubcrnatorial candidate. You can’t down a man when the fates continue to pull for him like that. A POLITICAL ARENA North -Dakota, sorely neglected in the days when it was regular, now that it has become so irregular ‘that no“one can trace its political in- | tricacies promise sto become the ‘most important national political arena in America. Hiram Johnson is coming; Leonard Wood is on the way. Both the republican and democratic national committees are giving North Dakota: the come hither glance. Our meagre vote in the electoral college may not count for so much, but the moral effect of a real victory for republicanism in North Dakota would be far-reaching. And it is that effect that the republican national committee is seeking. As for the democrats, it is more difficult to/say. Their only hope of winning in this state would be through an allegiance with Townley. Can the national democratic committee afford! to make that sacrifice, or would the state organi- zation permit it if attempted? ESS A telat GUN TOTING “Whipping out a gun one of the gang shot and Killed her.” * * * “He carried a bag in which the police found a revolver.” * * * “He pulled a revolver out of his overcoat pocket and fired at the policeman.” * * * “The other man shot him through the breast.” * * * Just a few of a single day’s crop of gun stories written on-police station blotters. It comes again and again and again. Over and over it is set down’ —“He carried a gun.” Gun toters! s How long is a civilized society going to permit the toting of guns?

There are| 4 doubtless scores of others. The concern that has filed suit against the gov- ernment for the value of 35,000,000 gallons of| booze it didn’t sell, might be sued by the govern-| ment for the damage done by the 35,000,000 it | did sell. : | i WITH THE EDITORS { | NEW ANGLE OF PROHIBITION An effort is being made to bring about the im- mediate ‘passage by the New York legislature of and beer and their sale, under certain restrictions. | When one of the supporters of this movement was asked how such a measure would harmonize with the federal legislation on the subject under the constitutional prohibition amendment, ‘he’ replied‘ ‘that the amendment gives the states and the fed- ' matter, and he believed that a state legislature was ‘as competent as congress is to say what is intoxi-! cating and what is not. If this: arrangement should be attempted, and: the plan should be sustained, we would have to be-| gin all over again, for if the,states may operate | under less restrictive: measures than are pre- ‘scribed by congress we should’ merely return to the former status of complete state authority over, the liquor question. It is quite safe to predict that 'the courts will not entertain any such interpreta- tion of the prohibition amendment. That provision for concurrent jurisdiction, by the way, is one which is likely to need a good deal of untangling. We have yet to see a satisfactory statement of what was intended to be accom- plished by it- Obviously it was not intended that the restrictions under which a state operates should be any less rigid than those provided by congress. If the state wishes more rigid regu- lations than the federal government provides, it need not go to the federal constitution for author- lity. It has now, as it has always had, ample au- ;thority to make itself as bone dry as‘it wishes to be, except in relation to importation from other states, and under the legislation of the past few years its authority on this point has been made absolute without any constitutional amendment whatever—Grand Forks Herald. 1 i t THE ELEVATION OF POLITICS If it is true, as the “Sun” hears from Washing- ton, that the contest over the democratic leader- \ship in the senate is getting more and more com- plicated with the contest over the treaty, it is gratifying to observe that in the present mixture of politics and policies the effect has been not to pull national policy down but to pull politics up. At least there is recognition at Washington that an enlightened stand on the problem of peace is also the best kind of personal politics. We have no intention of interpreting Senator Hitchcock’s call for a meeting of democratic members of the ‘foreign relations committee as a tactical move in his contest with Senator Underwood for the demo- cratic leadership. But it is for the best that both men should now be aligned for a policy of ratifica- tion through compromise. That growing sense of responsibility in republican ranks of which we spoke yesterday i$ not confined to the republicans. It is a national sentiment which must take on new force as a new year dawns bringing peace between Germany and the-European allies, but: not peace with this country, to whom Europe looked erst- while to play the leader in peace. For us the ques-, tion is whether we shall go into peace with the fair measure of graciousness that is still possible, or whether, we are to be dragged into peace by the accomplished fact in Europe—The New York Evening Post. - ‘| a bill legalizing the manufacture of light wines |” ‘eral government concurrent jurisdiction . in this |“ | Trinka in ber introduction, BISMARCK ‘DAILY TRIBUNE aE anEERAaEEEnEanmnteteReexcminenatenan feeen tte mn nee tte entation rn oe AG, D MOTHS AND THE FLAME nt ie ethene aes naman nhc encmanmenntinetinnnnetty | MONDAY, JANUARY 5, 1920 7 b Nir = =. oe ENATURED ALCOROL.
