HOTA 6.0 THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) GER POOR TACTICS } Republican voters have been circularized with copies of an article appearing in the Normanden, the vaporings of a very poorly informed political writer who so evidently has an axe to grind that every statement he makes is completely discount- ed. ; Now is no time to stir up dissention and division among the anti-Townley forces. Delegates will meet next week at Minot with but one object in mind to pick the ‘best possible candidate for gov- ernor who can clean house next fall. Such idle gossip as the Normanden gives cir- culation to has but one aim; a venomous desire to defeat some men it does not like. It is going to be largely a matter of drafting candidates, the best man for every job. Purely personal issues, animosities and differences must be buried forty fathoms deep if the state’is to be rid of the red menace, representative govern- ment restored and the credit of the state stabil- ized. Vicious attacks upon men who are in ‘the thick of the fight by the Normanden will not aid in re- deeming the state from present conditions. The Tribune holds no brief for any candidate, actual or tentative. It approaches the Minot meeting with an open mind and proposes to work for that ticket that meets with the approval of a-major- ity of anti-Townley republicans. 7 It ig a poor time for the “rule or ruin” element to flaunt their petty manipulation before the party. : Soft drinks don’t persuade the sentimental to tell hard-luck stories. COUNTY CONVENTION A surprising unanimity of feeling was evi- denced at the Burleigh county republican con- vention. What friction developed merely added zest to the occasion and everyone left satisfied with the results. It was wise judgment that dic- tated the action of the delegates in endorsing the ticket named at the April convention. * The first anti-Townley meeting was more rep- resentative because it contained fifty or more Burleigh county farmers who could not be pres- ent Wednesday. It would have been unfair for Bismarck to have taken advantage of this condi- tion to pack the delegation to Minot. Now there is an even balance between city and county representatives and this county promises to have an organization that will sweep Townley- ism off its feet. Chief emphasis will be placed on the contest for governor, legislative seats and places on the county board. Economic issues are sharply de- fined in the administration of these offices and men who stand as candidates must be militantly opposed to the red menace that has for its object the establishment of a soviet government. The delegation to Minot is composed of fair minded men who will go to the state anti-Town- ley convention with but one object in view, to beat. Townleyism at the June primaries with the best. available timber. The allies are taking something for what ails the Sick Man of Europe. CANCER The American Society for the Control of Can- cer has felt it necessary to issue another strong warning to the general public to guard itself against insiduous disease. * The society declares that between 75,000 and 100,000 now die in the United States, in a single year, from. cancer, that the annual increase is 214 per cent and that deaths from this disease are on the increase in every civilized country on the globe. In America it causes one death in every 10 after the age of 40. A special effort is being made by the society to make the public realize that cancer in its*early stages is a disease that can be eradicated, that a large proportion of deaths are thus preventable and that every wisq person will consult a physi- cian the first moment anything unusual is felt. : Cancer is a very curious disease whch the so- ciety’s experts say, is due to the running wild of certain parts of the body tissue; for example, a few cells in the breast or in the liver or in some other organ grow beyond the natural limit and invade the surrounding tissues; then comes the cancer. This cancer often does not give any no- tice of its presence until a long time after the trouble has begun, because the cells composing it are the same, or nearly the same, as the cells from which they started, and therefore, the body does not recognize the fact that a cancer is grow- ing until it becomes. of considerable size. The origin of cancer has been aptly compared to the situation in a family seated at a dinner table when a supposed relative arrives and_ is given a place—the newcomer eating all the food and finally the family itself. This is just what a j cancer does. It starts very quietly, is very small at first, but gradually grows and destroys the very tissues that feed it until ultimately it kills its host by the destruction of some important part of the body. But in such a case, the cells of the body itself are the parasites, there being no external parasite, so far as is known, introduced from the outside to cause the cancer. Meanwhile, thousands of medical and chemistry scientists the world over are giving their best ef- forts to solve the mysteries that still lie in this dread disease and the day will come when the ter- rors of this disease will be largely eliminated. Speed the day. ; AUDUBON On May 4 will occur the 140th anniversary of the birth of John James Audubon, America’s greatest naturalist. Product of New Orleans, son of a venturing sailor, Audubon avoided all paths but those that led to the fields and forests. With crayon and portfolio he traveled America over in his work of compiling “The Birds of North America.” He drew from the life. His task was a monster one. Year in and year out, though he might have en- joyed the gentleman’s life, Audubon plowed thru the swamps, living the life of a hermit at times, eating the roughest fare, that his naturalist’s in- stincts might have full sway. To complete his work was one thing; to sell it, quite another. He visited abroad that he might accomplish the lat- ter feat. ‘And, finally, over the greatest obsta- cles, succeeded. His diary is a record of wonder- ful perseverance and resourcefulness; his draw- ings the reproduction of lifely realism. It is too bad that Audubon, over 70, should lose his sight so that for several years before his death he could not enjoy the beauties of nature | THURSDAY, MAY 6, 1920 saa ecm a | cn ey FEELING HIS OAT which he so truthfully transferred to paper, and which all nature lovers can still enjoy and appre- ciate.

Johnson to be the choice} of the people for that office. Yours very truly, i THOMAS HALL, Secretary of State:” These pledges are exclusive of the written pledges of stmilar intent giv- en the Johnson campaign committee before the primary, This. disposes all of all where _ the (Signed) once and for arguments as to delegates. from this state are going to stand at Chi- cago. This pledge has been constru- ed by leading attorneys so ‘binding that'in}1912 the Roosevelt delegates electéd under instructions for La Fol- lette voted for and supported the Wis- consin candidate all through the con- vention, altho the Wisconsin man was never a leading candidate, and it was apparent from the first that he had no show of election. There is some disposition on the part of a few that because the dele- gates elected had not .declared for any candidate, that, therefore, they must be held to be uninstructed. A comparison which should be interest- ing to these fallacious reasoners should be New Jersey. In North Dakota Johnson had no authorized delegates but the Johnson Campaign organization threw its sup- Port to the delegates selected at the regular Republican convention. In New Jersey General Wood had a full Slate of delegates at large but two of the anti-Wood delegates were leaders in the balloting. Using the same reasoning, therefore, General Wood lost New Jersey and the dele- gates are uninstructed, because more people voted for the anti-Wood dele- gates than for any other. In reality, however, the case is much stronger because as stated be- EVERETT TRUE _ - By Condo MEN.

JOHNSON CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE By Richard S. Wilcox,-Chairman. HEALTH ADVICE BY UNCLE SAM, M. D. & —*% Health Questions Will Be An- swered if Sent to Information Bureau, U. S. Public Health Service, Washington, D. C. % The United States public health ser- vice has taken over the health ad- ministration of Perryville, Md., quite a little town not far from Baltimore that was built up during the war to house workers on certain govera- ment projects. The place is ideal in almost every respect for some higa- ly interesting studies in health ad- ~— ' ministration that are now going on. The houses were built on modern lines, with special attention to sani- tation. The population represents a fair section of the American public. and may be taken as an average. There the health service is putting into effect modern ideas in prevent- ive medicine and hygiene, and is closely observing results, The first consideration was. of course, to make the little town as sanitary as pos- sible by supervision of the sewerage and garbage disposal systems, proper drainage, water supply, etc. Next in importance was putting in- to effect standard medical laws and regulations governing the control of communicable — «{iseases, especially the reporting of such cases to the health officer to enable him to guard against the danger points for “catch- ing diseases.” A great deal of work is being done in the; schools... The. health service is"making a special effort to- protect the’ school against diphtheria. First what is known as the Schick test is made to determine ‘whether the child is susceptible to diphteria. If the test is positive the child is immun- ized. This method is generally re- garded asa wonderful improvemen: over anti-toxin treatment administer- ed after the disease has developed. Work in the model village has not, progressed sufficiently far to go into details, or to make many ‘promises, but the public health service ex- pects to derive from it many valu- able lessons for: application through- out the United States, * Q..
