Sometimies human beings get so submerged in envy and strife and ‘contention that they lose sight of all but the unlovely attributes of their fellows, but deep within every man in the world today there is a secret spring of hope that gushes out and blesses him whenever the master touch smites the rock of his well-nigh petrified faith, So long as the race’ can hope, so.long as men can pray, so long as stubborn, halting men will come as little children to kneel at the shrine, so long is humanity, at heart, divine. And when Christ rebuker the sceptics who de- manded a miracle and told them that miracles were all about them if only they would look with the eyes of ‘faith, Christ must have meant this eternal force of faith that'lies at the roots of our being, and that in time of trial and affliction sus- tains us as on wings of flame. It is announced that the skin of a common cat is now worth $1.24. It is probably worth more than that to the cat. CAMOUFLAGES Long ago Henry Drummond wrote that in a tropical forest fraud was the great rule of life, without which no creature could hope to survive. But the game of fraud is not confined to the trop ics. Woods and meadows and rocky wastes in all parts of the world contain far more creatures than one sees. They/are there concealed by pro- tective coloration. When a caged monkey hides his candy in a kan- garoo’s pouch or when soldiers cover roads and 3 ARE THEY NEVER GUILTY? It never fails. When a little pamphlet entitled “The Issues in the Centralia Murder Trial” reached The Forum office this week, and when it proved to be a de- fense of the I. W. W. held for the murder of four American Legion members, we instinctively looked for the name of one or more of the Nonpartisan league leaders. Sure enough. ; “Miss Jeanette Rankin, vice-chairman,” was among th eofficers of the “American Civil Liber- ities Union,” which published the pamphlet. Miss Rankin was in Fargo a few days ago to give a league political speech in the Sunday-evening se- ries being conducted here. It neglected to mention the families of the four service men who were shot down in cold blood, and had no sympathy for them, but it,had a lot of sympathy t owaste on the murderers and a lot to say about the way ir, which the “liberties” of the prisoners were being violated, and the claim that they didn’t have a “fair trial.” Every radical whoever was convicted of any crime from sedition to murder in the United States, has been a “victim of the system,” ac- cording to his noisy comrades. 3 Mr. Townley himself slandered the jurymen who found him guilty, and the judge who conducted: the trial. Kate Richards O’Hare found a defend- er in our own governor. ' Run down the list—the McNamara brothers, Haywood, Debs, Berger—all of them. They have been “victims of the sys- tem” or “persecuted by the capitalists.” The same wail always goes up. Surely there must be some honest judges and some honest juries, and some honest newspapers reporting the trials. Surely one of these prisoners is really guilty occasionally. —Fargo Forum. pare a otion for rehearing. And, as a year and a half had elapsed from the time of the trial so that conditions might have materially changed, Judgo Robinson, of his own motion, made an order permitting either party io submit. further testimony. The result was that as a part of the motion for rehearing additional evidence was submitted; and the court, decided to grant a new trial. The phhintitt then moved for a rehearing. The printed motion concluded with some very un- kind remarks of and concerning Jus- tice Robinson. It charged him with bias, malice and with acting as coun- sel for the defense. For the making of such charges. whether true or false, the distinguished tounsel laid him- self liable to be cited for contempt and ‘punished by fine. imprisonment or disbarment. But thé judges promp.- ty denied the motion for a rehearing and wasted not a moment in thinking or talking of the contempt. The facts are that the ristinguished counsel had some excuse: $11,000 is a big sum of money.: It is equal the salary of a supreme court judge for two yéars; it is equal the salary of the director general for a year and a month. When a lawyer s about to put his hand on such & nice sum of money, and then to have it vanish as in an awakening dream. why, it is enough to make hin: go and swear at the town pump. In such ‘a case a motion for rehearing with the use of some strong words, may act as a safety valve Then it is true the order for addi- tional evidence, made by Judge Rob- inson on his own motion, was without any precedent, only a similar order made by him in a horse killing case. Neer v. Live Stock Board, 168 'N. W. 610. That was an injunctional, suit to restrain the board from killing two good work horses on the false charge that the animals had a disease call ed dourine. The judges stood three to two in favor of the killing, on the ground that the court had no juris. diction to protest the animals—and so the case stood for fifteen months. Then Judge Robinson made an order directing the parties to procure and submit affidavits and photographs showing the present condition of tha horses. That was-,done,. the *horses were saved and a check was put io ‘ ANY A MAN}who ,, would not buy a tire because it was cheap will buy an inner tube’simply because Makers of the Suvextown Cord Tire it costs‘a'dollar’or two less.
