The soul of the nation was exalted to the high purpose of fashioning a new world out of the wreck of the old order; of free- ing little peoples from the yoke of oppression; of making the world unsafe for.imperialistic greed. So it is not surprising that three years later many are dismayed and discouraged in the} pres- ence’of thwarted hopes, while extreme optimists have gone to the opposite extreme of pessimism. True it is, that democracy still is struggling for life in various places. True it is that imperial- istic ambition seems to rear its ugly head now and then. . Liberated: small nations are fighting among themselves over boundary lines and large nations ‘are dissatisfied with the fruits of their victory. Hunger stalks through many lands, while armies are on the march in various parts of Europe. Such, briefly, is the state of the world three years after that glorious April the sixth. It is not a pleasing picture, and yet the causes for the discouragement that many Americans feel do not lie-so much in the conditions themselves as in the loftiness of the ideals for which America went into the war. America played for idealism’s highest_stakes and it is on that account that results attained seem to fall so short. Men forget that wars them- selves cannot establish new orders, Wars are rev- olutionary in their, nature and new and perma- nent political systems and reforms are established only through evolution.; Wars serve to sweep away old political structures, to make way for the new that must be built on foundations of peace and social order. : Viewed in this light, the war, of which it is now fair to make an appraisal, accomplished all that reasonable men should expect of it. It may be that there will be pauses in the demo- cratic movement and there may be recessions— such. as the German counten revolution seems to be—but the general trend is, forward toward the ideal that America set for mankind on:the mem- orable April the sixth. MOST POWERFUL FORCE i Many years ago two boys were employed in banks located at opposite ends of London. The daily job of each was to carry to the’other bank whatever checks his bank held against the other. Well, one day the boys met midway, compared checks and found they balanced. “What's the use of my going all the way to your bank and you going all the way to ours?” asked one boy of ‘the other. , {‘Let’s exchange check4 right here.” : And. so they did, each returning to his own bank, carrying the checks from the other. From this very simple arrangement between two boys, there was conceived the clearing house, a cooperative organization flourishing now in every large city and between banks. More familiar is the\ story of the eighteenth century boy who, watching the’ lid of a boiling kettle rise and fall, applied his observation to the invention of the steam engine. In 1733 a Dr. Clayton’ of London read that in a certain coal mine.there had been discovered a strange gas that burned when fire was applied. Dr. Clayton reasoned that the gas might come from the coal itself and, acting on this theory, he burned coal in a retort, caught the escaping gas in bladders and amused himself ‘and his friends by lighting what the doctor called “the spirit of coal.” \ But Dr. Clayton didn’t think far. enough. It remained for one, William Murdock to make coal gas commercially useful. | “Once you get an idea, you work liky a hurri cane,” says the admiring publisher to the au- thoress who is the heroine in a popular play. “An idea is in itself a hurricane,”. she replies. “It is the most powerful force in nature.” The man best able to appreciate the good old U.S. A. is the Red deported because the country didn’t ‘suit’ ‘him. Be calm. There isn’t much danger from the typhus plague in a country that has the Saturday EVENING STARS The night of April the 21st is being awaited by the mass of people with mild eagerness. _Like- wise the night of July 3. the dark skies every night. visible to the naked eye then. And then speculation will commence again. Folk will wonder if the interruptions which were recorded simultaneously in Europe and, America on delicate. wireless instruments recently, came really when beings on one of the planets or both, tried to communicate: with earth folk. Probably conditions will be more favorable then for such communication, if/it is to come. But they will be this age nothing is impossible. It is not an age of “I do not believe.” It is rather, one of “I do not know.” x “MOS’ EIGHT O’CLOCK Eternity is man’s most difficult conception. In fact, to say it is a conception is taking liberties with the subject, for when man’s imagination can take in’a comprehensive definition of Infinity, which is, so to speak, the square root of eternity, his mind will be developed to the ninth degree, which is one way of saying the same thing twice. ‘The Chinese symbol for eternity is a circle, Pac is an easy way of side-stepping an intangi-|- il ity, but after giving it a symbol the whole problem reverts to its original status. For how can we imagine going ’round and ’round forever? ‘Perhaps, after all, the old negro preacher’s de- finition will serve us best. To his congregation he said: 2 “Picture to yo’selves a English sparrow. Let him take a drap of water out of the Pacific ocean and hop, one hop a day, across to the At- lantic ocean, depositn’ his load on the shore. Then he starts back, just\as fast, for another drap. When he gits all the watah from the Pacific in the Atlantic, Angel Gabe’ll say, ‘Hm-ho, mos’ eight o’clock on eternity mawnin’!’” : ; ; If a few more conservatives like Kapp flash in the pan, the Reds can take charge and fashion a second edition of Russia. it A EDITORIAL REVIEW \ | , Comments reproduced in this column may or, not express. the opinions.of The Tribune.

In ‘| tator, NORTH DAKOTA’S F Considerable. advertising was ob: tained through a-hooth of North Da- kota products exhibited at the Mis. sissippi Valley exposition at St. ouis, Mo., March 1- to: 18.. In a report’ on the display, which was prepared by John Freyberger of LaMoure, Frank S. Stair, deputy immigration commis- sioner, said: « ++ “Being the omy ones ready we na- turally received all the attention of the visitors not only the first day but the first three days.’ Throughout we re- ceived more. comment in the | news. papers than all others and‘all this was favorable.

Mr. Nestos has served in the house of representa- tives, where he made an excellent impression, and he has also been a candidate for United States senator. Mr./Steen was state treasurer four years, in his:last term being the only anti-Town- ley candidate to be elected, in which office he made a fine record as a careful official and inde- pendent thinker. All of these gentlemen would make excellent governors if elected. But there comes the rub. In the Langer ranks, peculiarly enough, are many men who under other circumstances would prefer another candidate, but they believe that: under présent conditions no other man opposed to socialism can win,.and in this conviction are making a strenuous. fight for Langer’s nomina-: tion., They not oply believe in Mr. Langer’s avail- ability, but they believe his platform, under pres- ent conditions is sound, although’in other days opposed to about everything in it; they believe Mr. Langer will give the state an honest, conserv- ative administration, and that he/ will draw to his support many of those who followed him into the Townley camp. i On the other hand it is doubtful if any other man at this time can concentrate so many diver- gent interests behind his candidacy, for as near as can be ascertained others mentioned represent more nearly those Who are unalterably oppdged to anything and everybody who in any way was ever connected with the Nonpartisan league. If the anti-Socialists are to win this election thousands of votes must:come from\ those who have Jost faith in\the promises of Townley. Hun- ,dreds of men opposed to socialism are still in fa- vor of the terminal elevator and a state owned mill, though not on the grand plan of expenditure advocated by Townley, but, they want it tried out on a moderate scale, and to. nominate a man who is opposed to, or who-is backed by. men opposed to these measures, courts defeat. | © Mr. Langer’s friends are not opposing candi- dates for governor at'this time, but they’ do want | them to make the fight in the open and as frankly state their position and their willingness to get behind the nominee of the convention as Mr. Langer and-his friends have done: These friends resent the underhanded and secret’ manner in which a supposedly neutral anti-Socialist organi- zation is putting out- propaganda ~ against | Mr. ‘Langer, and they do not take kindly to efforts of organizers of this political body to defeat éxpres- sions of faith in Mr. Langer by voters assembled in properly constituted conventions, as was _at- tempted in this county last week.—Beach Ad- night bath habit. vance. ‘| agricultural. \ } TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 1920 —— INE BOOTH SHOWN lished it, this brought many more out to look over our display, not a few of whom were out of town people and many of them farmers.

The ‘tube’ is made thi so that part of it will act as a magni- fying glass so that you can see the tiny column: of ‘mercury. within. The best thermometers are those with the largest-bulbs and the smallest tubes. ‘The larger the surface of the bulb the quicker thé action of the in- strument and the ;smaller the bore of the tube the less expansion’ or contraction necessary ‘to cause a move- ment in the bulb to show in the tube.

The slightest difference. in‘the size of the ‘ube along its length will make a dif; ference in the reading.

BABSON, World-Famous Statisticlan, One of. the first American engineers to acquire great wealth was John Hays Hammond, a California’ boy, who went to South Africa to work in the gold mines for Cecil Rhodes, Friends of ond say. however, that his great success was due as much to his judge ‘of men as to his judge of ore. Once IT had the pleasure. of spend- ing Sunday with Mr. Hammond at his heautiful summer home at Gloucester, Mass. Among other questions, I-asked him what tests h> used in ‘selecting men? To this.question he replied : {Phe first thing I- ook for is: courtesy.
