The Tribune would suggest to this earnest young man that North Dakota is suffering not from the lies which have been told about it, but from the truth. People outside the state are loath to believe even the simple, unvarnished truth about this much-abused state of ours. Nothing would be gained by exaggerating the conditions which A. C. Townley and his fellow VOTING BY CLASSES The farmers . will vote against Hoover. women ‘will vote for him. McAdoo will get the railroad union vote. The soldiers will elect Wood.

Irish-Ameri- cans, German-Americans, Italian-Americans are apt does not. He votes as a free, untrammelled Amer- ican. The caste system is not coming into vogue in the United States just when Great Britain is getting away from it. \ CAKELESS DAY The cakeless- day has returned to Paris. Because of a flour shortage, cake has been re- moved from the French menu on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. And Paris will complain more about its cakeless days than it did about the meatless, wheatless, heatless and lightless years of the war. “C’est la guerre.” The phrase which embodied French’ sacrifice during war times explains the reaction which has set in. It is easier for France to complain because her attention is not riveted to the task at hand above all else. Other countries are having the same experience. America is investigating, discussing, postponing a real effort at production. It is so much time wasted and economic problems are piling, up. Work, the remedy for discontent, also is the basic cure for the causes ‘of unrest. Work would end cakeless days. GOOD-BYE, JOJO? When the National Association of | Outdoor Showmen convened:in Chicago the other day, it decided to eliminate the “fake” sideshow attrac- tions that on gaudily painted banners have flanked the ticket sellers’ cage for many years. Maybe it will succeed in doing so. If it,does, though, some hundreds of thousands of patrons are’ going to be disappointed. As 1 matter of fact, one rather likes to read the allur- ing lettering of the canvas bills, pay his money, socialists have brought into being in North Da- kota. God knows, the truth is bad enough! Not lies about Mr. Townley and his program but. the bare facts have kept capital, industry and enterprise out of North Dakota and will continue to so long as the name of this man is associated with our state. Can anyone, knowing the condi- tions, blame outsiders. who have money, or man- ufacturing plants or other things of material value, for not wishing to entrust this property to Mr. Townley’s untender mercies? People here in North Dakota who know Mr. Townley best are not taking a risk with their ‘own money, and not even Mr. Wild can expect more from those who are fortunate enough to be on the outside looking in, Drive Townleyism out of North Dakota, and the situation here will automatically right itself. Permit Townleyism to continue to levy upon the resources, the credit and the good name of our state, and conditions will grow steadily worse to the point where North Dakota will face financial and moral bankruptcy. .

He is doing his work well. The trouble is that he has an impossible ease to defend. The average man never feels so rich as when he selects something he can’t afford and tells the clerk to wrap ’er up. MAN AND DOG Somebody. asks why a man likes dogs better than other animals. / What others could he choose to chum with? One cannot fly with birds, or swim with fishes, or graze and chew the cud with sheep and cattie. Nor can he root with pigs, or roost with fowl, or leap from bough to bough with squirrdls. The larger beasts of prey are dangerous. Mice and rats are too prolific and too destructive to be en: couraged to live at large near human habitations, and their subterranean mode of life can not be shared by man. Polecats and porcupines are out of the question. Monkeys, with their tree- dwelling instincts, can not be taught cleanly hab- ‘its. And so it goes. But the dog! He is of a size to share man’s in- terests, and neither large enough to trample him down nor small enough ‘to live in inaccessible nooks and crannies. Like the cat and cave-dwell- ing creatures, he is cleanly, as monkeys and grass- eating creatures are not. He eats the same food. He goes about by day but is alert at night. Like man, he loves to play and roam and hunt, and he makes a brave and reliable fighter. t Best of all, he is himself companionable, affec- tionate and devoted. No lamb evgr-loved Mary as a good dog loves a half-decent master. For, like his cousin, the wolf, he comes of a social stock, though ages ago, before the beginning of human him a friend and helper for himself.

BULLDOZING DON’T WORK A few months agg the various branches of la- bor unions were courting the farmer. They want- ed him‘to join them, then the affairs of the coun- try could be sewed up’in a union sack. Every farm. organization approached lost no time in put- ting an end to this courtship, thus proving to the world that our farm organizations, although they are a bit too numerous for concerted action and striking a heavy blow, represent the mind of the rank and file of the farming class. Finding it -mpoSsible to win the farmer to their idea, some of the locals of the labor unions are now/trying to bulldoze and‘boycott the farmer. ~. : It is easier to bulldoze almost_anyone else'than a farmer. Here is where the free air, the pure sunshine and the independent privilege of farm life assert themselves. The farmer ig too used to being his own boss to be bulldozed, and anyone or any organization trying it will find this to be afact. The farmer can be won by fair reasoning and fair dealing, but if you are unable to put up a fair case to the farmer and lose out because you cannot, don’t make the fearful mistake of trying to bulldoze him into accepting it. Such tactics may win where the sensibilities of men have been dulled by a generation of teaching that places the shirk on the same earning pland as the energetic, but it won’t do on men who have lived a free and independent life as God intended men should live. John Bull found that out when he tried it on our ment in favor of/the theory that men lived to- gether, once and then became dispersed—taking their dogs with them, even to far-off Australia. the year you collect it.
