F : PAYABLE IN ADVA rth Dak OLDES' at in the world war. : : All the other big nations once arrayed against : Germany today exchanged ratifications of the peace treaty. with their one-time enemy and for : them—Germans, too—the world war has ended. But not for the United States of America! . For weeks and months now the United States senate has mulled over tha peace treaty. It has talked. It has debated. It has played politics. It has done everything but tackle the peace treaty, in real earnest, with an honest desire to serve the i : best interests of the American people and their neighbors throughout the world. Altogether too; much time and effort has been given to this sen- atorial jockeying. FE * Other nations, Great..Britain, France, Japan, Italy, Belgium, today embark upon the path of peace. They resume diplomatic and business re- lations. with Germariy. Their peoples know where they stand, and business in those countries can go ahead without any misgivings, without any! fear that their governments will kick a hole in| their carefully Jaid plans of commercial inter- course with each other and with Germany. Our senate handicaps American business, and: when it handicaps business in this way it halts the progress of American labor, too. It slows up na- tional advance when it blocks international trade, It tells the manufacturer, the exporter, the finan- cier, the workman to, sit down and wait while it putters’ over reservations mild and reservations not so mild and more particularly while the “bitter enders” wrangle to the bitter end. In the mean- ' while British, French. and Japanese ‘business has an’open door to the storehouse of ‘international | trade. .' THE PLODDERS Pointing to a neighbor the other day, a feliow said: “I don’t See why Carter and his wife work so hard. They’ve been plodding along just as they do today for years.”” It did seém odd, for a mo- \ ment. + ne ae ki _ “Why do you work so hard, Carter? You ought to let up a bit. You are not so young as you once were. Why do you folks do it?” “For two reasons,” Carter quickly answered. “There they are,” and he pointed to a boy and a girl, probably 10 and 12 years old. : Phat’s why fathers. and ‘mothers in ordinary circumstances strive so hard and labor so long— just children. There’s something deep-seated in the nature of'a father and mother.. They want their children to “get along.” They want them to “rise in the, world.” They want to see them among the Jeaders. They want to be able to sup- _: ply the cash to put their’kids up among other peo- ple’s kids. They hope some day to move off “the street” and onto “the avenue.”» They feel that the children will have a better chance there. That’s why they work, and they scrape, and they “plod, plod to their-dying days, some of them—for ‘the children’s sakes. Do all the.children appre- ciate that sacrifice? ae . WORDS Forty-one years ago the French Academy began _Tevising the French dictionary. Its members have now reached the letter F, and at that rate of speed fore the year 2020. Coining of new words during the war will neces- sitate additions -and corrections in the work. al- ready done. ‘Probably the dictionary will be obsolete when * complete—if it ever is «completed. Certainly it , would be in the case of the English language. It is interesting for any man to think over this word system of ours and to try to call to mind words now in common use which he never heard a few years ago, and-words which he heard as a boy. and which have been*practically forgotten now. ; The late war was probably the most prolific source of new words in this nation’s history. It ; is an easy matter to think of a long list of such new words as camouflage, ace and the like. And it brought into common use’ many words which had been seldom: heard, such as salient, attrition, autonomous, plebiscite ‘and many others. This was a great help to the language. Words originating from the war have force and push. ~Stil; thretarger we build our navyr the fewer ‘ready to be submitted to the state commission for | decision to put aside bias and- political feeling, to i The United States is the only great power still it is estimated the revision will not be finished be-; issue?—Beach Advance. [ss 4 FAIRNESS TO ALL In presenting a resume today of the controversy over the water rates in Bismarck, The Tribune de- sires to impress upon its readers that only fair-! ness should govern in an investigation of this kind. | . Much extraneous matter has been | introduced, jand the issues more or less beclouded by personal | feeling and local politics. With the The Tribune! is not concerned. It is not interested in the fee-} tional strife that has too often come to the sur: {face, but it’ is vitally interested that justice he done to all parties. The Tribune has secured these figures, not from the Bismarck Water Supply Co. nor from the citi- zens’ committee, it has taken them from the rec- cords of the state railroad commission. It is just as well now that the matter is about eliminate cheap invective and personalities and permit fair consideration an inning. . BASEBALL ‘ | There are certain signs on the sporting pages) of the newspapers that portend a certain day in| April. Somebody is holding out for a mammoth | bonus. Some outfit has decided on Marlin Springs | or Hot Springs for a training camp. The “Young| Adenoids” are looking for a good pitcher not over | fifteen who does not have to work on Saturday ; afternoons. We know what these things mean. | They are the signs inevitable. Baseball is in the! offing though winter is not yet over the hill. Pro-, fessionals and amateurs are beginning to get! ready to hit their strides. } The outlook for America’s great game for 1920, is especially good. It cannot come too soon, that! raucous cry of our much-abused friend: Mr. Umps, | announcing to the “ladees and genlmun” the hat: | teries for the afternoon’s game. \ But once since 1909 has the small boy’s ideal, ! Tyrus Cobb, failed in leading his league in batting. | Will he lead it again this year? Will Ruth beat! his home run record? Will Sisler steal 45 bases?! In these things the fans are interested. But | fi is the game itself that they are “bugs”; about. They. are quite ready Tor Mr. Umps to! command “Play ball.” And that goes for big| league territory and for the sandlots, where the! natural ball players come from. | | <a | It’s just as well that Maynard quit the air serv-| ice. If he didn’t tell the truth about the use of | booze by flyers, the service is too good for him;}| and if he did, tell the truth, the service is no place for a parson. Hail hes | DEFENDING FREE LOVE- Yes, the Townleyized press of the state is try- ing to defend Ellen Key and her free love books, They claim her books do not teach free love, or: anything approaching free love. Even so, how many mothers of this state want their children to be reading trash written by such women as Ellen Key? When the Townley press tries to bolster up such a notorious character as Ellen Key, and then in order to do it abuse the bishop of the Catholic! church, or any other clergyman, it: is getting pretty rotten. .Wake up, Townley, and call your wolves off. 'They are really doing no harm except to make fools of themselves.—Devils Lake World. | t 7 | WITH THE EDITORS. DECAYED FRUIT “By their fruits ye shall know them.” And by this same’token we may judge the power behind the state administration by the ut- terances of its hirlings. ¢ i So, when you learn that Senator Cahill of Grant | county insists that a ‘“man can be as good an| American citizen following the red flag as any} other flag,” we are justified in the conviction that | Cahill echoes the sentiments of those controlling | state affairs. In two sessions of the legislature efforts have been made to enact.a law prohibiting the display | of the red flag, but the power of Townley has killed the measures, although many of those voting under orders would, if left'to their own good sénse, have made’a majority for the passage of such a law. Where does Senator George Hunt stand on this HIGHER-UPS CRACK WHIP The Traill County News—the Townley mouth- | piece of this county—is again back in line at the crack of Big Chief Townley’s lash, after indulging in several weeks of spasmodic independence, in which Totten, Stangeland and Macdonald were pla- carded in their true light. , The News got real naughty during its short spell of free thinking and independence, but, as pre- dicted by many, it was of short life. The higher- | |ups immediately set their machinery in motion | and as a consequence, Editor Tovads got his walk- ing papers, .a new man sent to take his place, and the usual bunk favorable to “free love,” socialism and red radicalism appeared in last week’s issue under the new editorship. / We understand everything is not lovely with \the directorate of the paper and that one mem: ber of the board tendered his resignation, evi- dently becoming convinced that there: was little honor or self respect in being 4 director of an in- stitution in which he has nothing to say further jthan to see that Townley’s orders were obeyed.— Hillsboro Banner, ISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE eee NOVEMBER THE ELEVENTH Did they die in vain?
