OLDEST - NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) GPs TOWNLEYISM NOTHING NEW “He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation; he has excited domestic insurrection amongst us, and has endeavored to bring in on the in- habitants of our frontiers the merciless Red » gavages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.” No, that was not written of A. C. Townley. The men who indited these lines have been dust for nigh unto a century, and more, and the tyrant of whom they wrote was King George III. The document in which these charges were contained | has come to be known as the Declaration of Inde- pendence, an instrument universally honored by: Americans who have not read Gustav Meyers’ “History of the Supreme Court,” which is to be found in the traveling libraries sent out by the North Dakota board of administration, or similar literature produced by Dr. Charles A. Beard, lec-' turer for the Rand school of sociology, and ‘who} picked the present head of North Dakota’s library. | Only one word has been changed. In the Declar- ation of Independence it reads “Indian” savages. | The Reds of the present day to whom our frontiers | have been, exposed are far. more deadly than the | Indians whom King George III loosed upon our: forefathers.’ They fight in a more dangerous way, ! for it is the soul.of men and women and children and not the body which they kill. * “He‘has combined with others to subject us to jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and.unacknowledged by our laws.” i} That was one of the principal grievances: which' . led our colonial ancestors to revolt 144 years ago. Will we, a people who have enjoyed for more than. acentury the liberty and independence which they “won for us, submit to vassalage now? COOLIDGE VS. FRAZIER There is a vast difference between Governor Lynn J. Frazier’s Labor day speech in Bismarck and the message which Calvin Coolidge, governor of Massachusetts, addressed td the. legislature of the Bay State-this week. The gap between these | two utterances, one a veiled advocacy of revolu- | tion, and the other a manly, clean-cut stand for ' Americanism and obedience to constitutional au- thority, is as great as that between the two men’ themselves. To Governor Frazier and his adherents we re- spectfully commend the following excerpt from Governor, Coolidge’s. message: “Phere are strident voices urging resistance to law,in the name of freedom. They are not seek- ing freedom even for themselves—they have it; they are seeking to enslave others. Their works arq evil. They know it. They must be resisted. The evil they represent must be overcome by the good others represent. These ideas which are wrong, for the most part imported, must be sup- planted by ideas which are right. This can: be - done. “The meaning of America is a power which cannot be overcome. Massachusetts must lead in teaching it, Prosecution of the criminal and edu- cation of the ignorant are the remedies. “It is fundamental that freedom is not to be se- cured by disobedience to law. of the slave depended on the supremacy of the constitution.. There is no mystery About this, ‘They who sin are the servants of sin.’ They who! break the laws are the slaves of their own crime. | It is not for, the advantage of others that the citizen is abjured to obey the laws, but for his own advantage. What he claims a right to do to others, that must he admit others have a right to! do to him. His obedience is his own protection. He is not submitting, himself to the dictates of others, but responding to the requirements of his , own nature. Laws are not manufactured, they are not imposed; they are rules of action existing from everlasting, to everlasting. He who resists them resists himself; he commits suicide. The nature of a man requires sovereignty. GOVERNMENT MUST GOVERN. To obey is life. To disobey is death. Organized government is the expression of the life of the commonwealth. ,Into your hands is entrusted the grave responsibility of its protec-' tion ‘and perpetuation.” : The difference between congress and a business institution is that the head of a business institu- \Ecclesiastes before you, go to bed tonight.

Mother couldn’t carry on ‘the scheme of life very well without the dog-eared | book that hung by a string on its peg behind the kitchen door. To the children, it was a book of mysteries. Hat none of us could fathom. Our parents, only, : knew. : It’s coming along the time of the year when the old-fashioned almanac is to be displaced by an- other one. Some folks laughed at the long-dis-| tance weather forecasts. And father rather) smiled at them. But somehow he generally “took; a slant” at what the professor had to say about it. And when dad goes to the drug store for the new almanac, depend upon it, he’ll ask for the old- fashioned kind. He wants one with that suffering man on the front page, a completely disembowelled individual, 9 WNSEND ROAD MEASURE the sub-district directors ‘ot the cen-! with the ram, the pisces, the fish, prominently dis-| played, long-distance forecasts and all. To the older generations, old-fashioned almanacs, like old-fashioned tunes, were best. THE BEST SELLER The American Bible society reports the biggest year in history for the Bible. Last year 35,000,- 000 Bibles were sold and distributed in the United States and this year’s circulation will exceed that} number. ‘ A Bible can be bought for 25 cents. We know no better bargain. In its three or four thou- sandth year it is still the most popular book. When we were a boy we lived in a house with a wonderful old attic in which were stored old toys | and old books and old letters. And though we had, explored the place time and again, we were always | isurprising ourselves by finding some forgotten , thing. So that the old attic seemed always new ‘to us. So the Bible. You think you have read it all? Go through its pages again this evening and find: isome new consolation, some néw drama, some new wisdom, some new example of matchless English. : And on the way you will meet some old forgotten ‘friends, as well. ‘Thus, the other day a friend of ours, wandering ‘through his Bible, discovered a.rich treasure of ‘wisdom in Ecclesiastes. Like the boy, searching | among the treasures of the old attic, he had over-: ‘looked it in previous explorations, Suppose you treat: yourself to a chapter of It’s MANLY BOYS Boys are bound to grow up. Peter Pan did | not. But Mr. Barrie’s charming fellow is a fanci-| ‘ful exception. And boys, naturally, growing up _want to become strong, hardy, sinewy, robust and! stalwart men. high in the medical profession tell us that the boy should develop these five qualities, which all vigorous men possess: Muscular strength, endur- ance, energy, courage and will power. Abraham Lincoln performed great deeds. He possessed these five points. So, too, do such men ‘as General Pershing, Robert E. Peary, who dis- covered the north pole, and Walter Johnson, the great baseball pitcher, possess them. Men who have done things—men who do things—are of strong will, great courage, untiring energy, un- limited endurance and highly developed strength. Boys should build up these points. They can do it. Take plenty of the right kind of exercise. Sleep and work and live and exercise as much as possible in the fresh air. Keep the window open Night air is not dangerous. A man once said that at night, night air is the only kind there is. Get plenty of sleep. Eat proper food. Be strenuous when you. play. perspiration. Breathe deep. Fresh air is better Get not less than. eight hours’ ' Sleep. Eat plenty of vegetables, butter, eggs and fruit. Limit meat. Constant attention to these five cardinal paints will develop the regular boy into a regular man. Such a chap can hold his own.
