There were no prearranged slates, no old-time political wire pulling, just a sincere desire to rid North Dakota of the red socialism /that has its ugly fist at the throat of the state. The convention was perfectly within its rights not to endorse anyone who is tainted with Town- leyism or who is trying to flirt or compromise with that element in Burleigit county. If Town- ley’s endorsement means more to them 4han the endorsement of the clean upstanding citizens who were present at this meeting, the county officials in question should cherish it and openly acclaim their label to the voters of the county. Burleigh county sends a representative delega- tion to the mass state anti-Townley meeting. Just what will be the outcome of that session has not, been disclosed but in any event, Burleigh county is going to organize thoroughly against the red machine in this county. | : Now people know why Sims declined a medal.’ He preferred a hammer. ' - SHIRKING DUTY Isolating America from world affairs has its moments of inconvenience. “America can no long- er sit back and scorn Europe for not. putting things right in the danger corners’ of the earth. Té was the American habit in former times to play the role of self-righteous critic when mas- sacres and other cruelties fixed the world’s atten- tion on primitive civilization.’ Those days of de- lusion about our°own lack of responsibility. have gone forever.. The world will not let the United , States forget it is shirking ‘its international duty. Lloyd George, answering an interpellation in the Housd of Commons about America, said: ‘ “Up to the present time we have only received}! ‘requests from America to protect Armenia with- out any offer to assume responsibility. There is a terrible sting in this bland state- ment. America has no answer. Americans are appealing at this moment to Great Britain to pro- tect the Armenians from the Turks. But, Amer- ica is horrified at any suggestion that it is Uncle Sam’s duty to lend a little help himself. If Great Britain ever takes a similar view of the interna- tional responsibilities of the~Anglo-Saxons, the day of the triumpt of the Teutons or. another master race will be at hand. : Inert The kaiser still has his lucky days. The crown prince has declined an ‘opportunity to live near ‘him, MORE BUILDING In the midst of a housing situation that is‘near- ly desperate, it is encouraging to-learn that the _ curve of building is going up at a not consider- able rate. It will be, perhaps, several years be- fore building catches up with demand, but the rapid swing in the upward diréction that will oc- cur in 1920 will be of.some help, at least. The February compilation of projected building operations, made by the Commercial and Finan- cial Chronicle of New York, covering 171 cities in various sections.of the country, supplements the January favorable report. The total of intended outlay for building foots up to $112,633,266 against only $34,330,508, in 1919, or an increase of 228.8 per cent; and a gain over 1918 of even more —275 per. cent. ‘ % In Greater New York the current aggregate of building is $24,557,129:against $8,125,613 in 1919, and compares with but $4,328,691 two years ago. Outside of New York the estimated expenditures provided for under contracts entered into, total $88,056,137, and contracts with only $26,204,810 in 1919, and $25,500,000 in 1918. In the 170 cities in the country at large, all but 23 exhibit increase over last: year. It is impossi- ble to tell how much of the increase is due to ex- pansion of business, such as_ factories, office buildings, theatres. 4 \ The approach of summer causes one to wonder what excuse the ice man will find for’doubling his prices. i WHAT THEY EAT Seattle is the “sweetest” city in the United States. ( Survey of what, residents of 12 large cities in the various sections of the country eat, under- taken by the U. S. department of labor, shows an average of .223 pounds of sugar per person con- 3umed daily in that city. / NewYork, Providence and San Francisco are ‘low with .152 each. San Franciscans are the biggest meat eaters, averaging .42 pounds per day, while residents of Atlanta, with a .296 average, relish meat least. ’ St.Paul and Minneapolis are the best expon- ents of vegetarianism with an average of 1.339 of: vegetables per day eaten by every person in the twin cities. With an average of .927, New Orleans shows least faith in this dietary creed. Other cities lag far behind Boston in fish con- sumption. Bostonians eat .1130 of sea food a day.

I scolded him; begged him to behave, and I prayed for him. Nothing seemed to do any good. He went from bad to worse. I’ shot him for I feared it was only a qquestion of time be- fore the boy would get into a scrape that’d send him to the death chair.” ; The son, according to court records, slipped into near-crime life when he was 14. Two years later he had become a gangster’and repeatedly was ar- rested. A year ago the father carried the boy bodily to the police and had him confined in s boy’s home. Two months later the mother ob- tained his release. The night the lad was shot he was with “his gang” when his father came along. } “I was determined to make a final effort to re- claim my boy,” the father said. “Then there was nothing else to do.” é That father began too late. You can’t let a boy in the city run the streets without: his getting into contact with evil per- sons, young and old. You cannot count on much success if you begin reclaiming a boy after he be- comes a member of “the gang.” The time to start is before he gets acqquainted with the gangsters. Let him make his home a meeting place ‘for his -boy friends. Let him entertain them in the best room, And, father, don’t be so busy with any- thing else that you can’t be your boy’s pal. If you.are, and you're the right kind éf a man, your 3on will never need reclaiming. He’ll never need a bullet to keep him out of the death chair. Remember this: If you don’t ‘pal with your son, the corner gang will. And this: If they can’t meet in his home, they will elsewhere. oe \ , The reason Bolivia’s feet are not cold is because her back is Chile. : Statesmen talk of a flat income tax. The pres- ant one leaves the average fellow flat enough. The price of clothing will come down if some- body will find a way to make patches fashionable. A’ Dayton physician says the. old-fashioned nightcap is the best way to prevent flu—the wool cap; not the rye one. Self-determination is a compound word that will confound imperialists as long as one people wears the yoke of another. There is a story that’ an ill-starred ' diamond saused the kaiser’s ruin. As a matter of fact it was a club held by Uncle Sam.’ t EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reproduced in this column may or m not express the opinions of The Tribune. They are re sented here’ in order vhat our readers may have both sides of important issues which are being discussed in the press of the day. GUBERNATORIAL GOSSIP Two men, Mr. Langer and Mr. Nestos, have announced formally their candidacy for the :nom- ination for governor on a platform’ of absolute opposition to socialism and for the restoration of our governmental methods to the normal and or- derly. Mr. Steen has declared himself in favor of a similar policy, and, while not formally an- nounced, he will doubtless be available if his can- didacy is regarded as advisable. Mention is made of other men in this connection, among them be- ing L. F. Crawford of Sentinel Butte, Harrison Garnett of Pembina county, and J. B. Power; the well known stock raiser of Amenia. These men are not known to be active candidates. They are known to be good citizens, capable men,/and thor- oughly committed to the principles of good gov- \ernment. j The Herald is. convinced that it will be’ useful for the citizens generally to consider c&refully the qualifications of all the men whom they know who may appear to them to be available for this position, not that one candidacy is to be played off against another, but that when the time comes for a representative gathering to make a concrete recommendation that recommendation may be made after intelligent consideration of all the elements which should: be given weight.—Grand gist show you “Diamond Dye” Color | Card.

SN — —S—= SSS AMONG THE POLI- | TICIANS _| ee “Orr is out—Bannon. is-in!”—Thus reads a front page announcement of “The Mott Pioneer Press” one of the Brinton league of Townleyized press. It seems.a Mr. Orr tried to rescue the publication from the league con- trol and is still engaged in litigation to accomplish this end. A restrain- ing order from‘the district court has placed the league on the editorial tripod temporarily and Mr. Bannon celebrates his arrival as receiver in this glowing galaxy of words: “We are ‘seeing the dawn of a new day, The rays of sunshine of trad Democracy are ‘beginning to peep above the horizon, imprinting in glow- ing letters of, fire upon the sky: tho phrase: ‘Equal, rights’ to all and special privifeges to none.’ Hence- torth this paper, will be a publication by. the people and for ‘the people and not for a privileged few.

We regret that the bank ever wag conducted so as to bring on the difficulties of a few months past, and all our efforts will be, directed to again putting the bank on its former solid foundation.’ “The story of the bank has been used with telling effect.on the stump in North Dakota by Attorney Gen- eral William Langer. While the bank was running under the old manage- ment,, much was said' about it’ by Townley speakers and newspapers in Minnesota, who told how ‘big ‘biz’ had attempted to wreck a farmers’ in- stitution. The new president’s state: ment clearly points to the identity of! the real “wreckers,” Of ‘course, the old bank officials are legally respon- sible and are being made the sdape- goats, but the 4eal weighs. heavily against the outsiders who isuged their control of the institution and plunged on other, people's money.” Want to Go Higher.— There are rumblings of a ‘political coup d’etat in league circles—a real surprise whispers Dame Rumor. that;Governor Frazier unless he’ can go to the United States senate pre- fers to retire to the silent solitudes of-his Hoople farm.
