REMADE MEN. Though American beneficent purposes in the war have not all been realized fully, there is no doubt that, as an incident to the war, the course of many Editor live: s have been changed for the better. In the United States 18,239 former soldiers, sail- ors and marines are in training for trades, com- -Kreago Bldg.} mercial employment and professions which, before the war, many of them probably had never dreamed of undertaking, according to the latest bulletin of this Federal Board for; Vocational Education. Many had been square pegs in round holes. Their edueation had prepared them for nothing in par-}:” ticular. They were just loose parts rattling, in the industrial machine, Left to themselves, a consid- erable portion of them would have remained in the too largé class ‘known as unskilled labor. ; Returning from the war, disabled, they found awaiting them opportunity te learn gainful trades and profeSsions at the expense of-the government. Each man was direeted to the road best suited to his inclinations and talents. : Jf a man seemed to have in him the makings of a plumber, he’ was advised to Jearn plumbing, and TWO SEVERE JOLTS GIVEN MR. FRAZIER Two very severe jolts have been handed Mr, Fraz-_ jer within the brief space of a week by the supreme court of North Dakota. First four members of that, tribunal, three of whom were elected with the en- dorsement of the Nonpartisan league, joined in de- elaring Mouse Bill 60, which would have made Mr. Frazier very much of a dictator, worth not so much as a tinker’s dam, which a woman friend advises us is not a cuss-word, as some folks. believe, but a * very insignificant type of dam which a tinker uses | in tinkering. Then on top of this the supreme court declined to substitute for Judge Crawford. in Morton county district court some other jurist who “would have been,more aceeptable to Mr. Frazier, and-as’a fesult ‘Mr. Frazicr’s distinguished counsel | decided it was not worth while to ‘try to put up a defence for Mr. Frazier’s action in removing State's Attomey Gallagher, and Sheriff Piersina of Golden Malley county. Vee To say the Jeast, this is unkinch.treatment for a man who has had things so very much his own way that he has come, no doubt, to feel that there is no other way werth considering. When Governor Frazier lost House Bill 60 he lost the immediate job of punishing Bill Langer and Carl Kositzky and Tom Hall for the embarassing moments which they have given Mr. Frazier when they persisted in air- ing the Valley City bank deal, the Scandinavian- American bank matter and other fragrant bits of Jeague financiering. THe lost an opportunity to name a state sheriff and to create a state constabulary ; he lost the immediate advantage of a smelling com- mittce which might*have made things very: unpléas- ant for Mr. Frazicr’s‘opponents; he lost the privilege of sending Bill Langer.and Carl Kositzky and other state officials to the state penitentiary for telling a version of the truth about The New Day in North Dakota which differed from the league’s version; he lost a splendid opportunity to cripple the attorney general's office and to, prevent the prosecution of'| a number of important Jaw-suits in which league leaders may or may not be interested; he lost a chance to tie the hands of State Auditor Kositzky and to prevent him’ from nosing into expenditures of various departments-which, are wholly in sym- pathy with Mr. Townley and Mr. : Frazier. That was bitter enough, bit quinine was added ‘to Mr. Frazier’s oil of aloes when the same supreme court that said ‘Naughty Naughty!’ and took from Lymn the choicest of all his toys, House Bill 60, fol< lowed up witha refusal to pick for Mr. Frazier a district court. judge who was more to his liking for various reasons than Judge Crawford of Dickin- son. Confronted with the necessity of defending his removal of Golden Valley county officers before! a court whieh he was not sure of, according to his own affidavit; Mr. Frazier was compelled to back water. The action of W. A. Andersoi-of Minneapolis, who in additién to being secretary of the North Dakota industrial commission, handles much of the league's} lesser legal work in this state, and of George K. Foster, late a member of Mr. Langer’s staff, in re- fusing to enter a defense in the Morton county dis- trict court will be generally construed, properly or otherwise, to mean that they had no valid defense to offer. The lay mind will regard this complete re- treat as a more or less tacit admission that there is some atom of truth to the charges that Mr. Fraz- icr was playing polities when he removed the Golden Valley county officers beeause of alleged Jack of diligence in prosceuting the slayers of M. K. Bowen!| the Golva rancher. It is probable that the proceedings in the district court will come before the supreme court for review, |! and there it is possible that Mr. Frazier may present soine justification for his acts, but at this moment the governor does not appear before his people in an enviable light. tinuously for the last six months on the defensive, and that is a position which adds nothing to the strength of a man in public life. It is not at all improbable that if Governor Frazier pulls another boner or two he will be compelled to sacrifice any third term aspirations which he may have.

F. Jacobson that there must be a Republican state conyentiof to nominate a state ticket ‘from Governor down will, we hope, and believe, mect with favor among Republicans thru- out the state. : ; The refusal of Republican legislatures at several sessions to listen to-the rising demand for reform of the primary election law has brought, the Repub- lican party in Minnesota to a point where it is in danger of being praetieally eliminated from partici- pation in the. adminstration of state affairs. The only way, in our judgment, to avoid that sit- uation, is pojited gout by Mr. Jacobson. We anust return to the. répresén{ative principle in party ‘or- ganization and: ditectionsjast as we rely upon it in the administration of public affairs. Peta aby The people must have a chance through their rep- resentatives to canvass the fitness of candidates, to confer as,to party policies, aid to declare a prd- gram of state administration.’ Without it the old parties have gone to pieces; opportunity has been given for new organizations of minorities, under concentrated management, to nulfy or override the wishes of the majority. be- cause the latter lack organization and political effi- cieney, Party organization, party. principles, party. rule, which is the kind of rule we have. in this eountry, it likely tobe seized by a compaet, diseiplined and manipulated minority to the detriment of the public This also makes it possible for self-seeking poli- fivians outside the party to inject themselves into the situation and so to split up party membership as to put party control in the hands of men whose purposes and principles are out of harmony witle Re- publican principles and openly hostile to long es- tablished institutions, { Mr. Jacobson is very confident that such a state nominating convention will be Held; that the Re- publieans of the state want it, and upon its holding is predicting a satisfactory solution ‘of the problem ated by the great multiplicity of candidates. The lection of a state ticket by arepresentative Repub- liean convention would inevitably dispose of the rivalries for state offices so far as the Republican nomination is coneerned. It would hardly be worth while for any Republican-candidate to persist in his candidacy after the indorsement of a convention had been conferred upon another. There has been much talk about elemination con- ferences, but this would be the right kind of an elimination conferenee—a convention of a thousand to fifteen hundred elected delegates to a representa- tive convention, The bringing about of such a con- vention would add inealewlably to the confidence and the enthasiasm and the efficiency of Repub- licans generatly aud impart enthusiasm to the cam- You can always judge a civilization by the degree of independence enjoyed by its women. paign whieh cannot otherwise be attained. ~ From the Minneapolis Tribune. yeahs os * PEOPLE'S FORUM ||: co cd NORTH DAB Beulah, OTA LIGNITE D., Jan. 13, 1920.
