THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) E> ANOTHER BLOT One of the first, and most important acts of the new Mexican administration should be the - finding and punishing of Carranza’s slayers. Un- doubtedly Obregon will have much to say. with Mexican affairs of the immediate future. He owes it to himself to prove to the people of Mex- ico and elsewhere that there is none of Carranza’s blood upon his hands. In the eyes of fair-minded men, General Obre- sss gan gon loses by the death of Carranza, and probably a it is true, as Mexican reports indicate, that Obre- gon is really sorry that his political.enemy was thus sacrificed in ruthless murder. For murder it was. : Without a doubt Carranza had faults, personal of state’s knowledge of the affairs of state, ‘he is thoroughly American. It is incomprehensible that anyone with no more judgment than to make a remark of this kind can have the audacity to run for a position of trust. It shows a warped vision and a mind so deeply steeped in socialism as to be indifferent to the most noble traditions of our nation. Under which flag would Senator Cahill prefer to live? Is it merely a matter of indifference to him? Do the Stars and Stripes have no meaning —no appeal? His statements on the stump would indicate that radicalism has, obscured his vision to Old Glory’s significance and its inspiration. Voters when you go to the polls June 30, just , remember what Senator Cahill has said regarding the Red flag and the national emblem. Don’t forget either that he led A. C. Townley’s disgraceful fight in the state senate against Miss Minnie J. Neilson. These are sufficient indictments against him and the league senator should be snowed under a protest of votes from citizens who are 100 per cent American. ie Such men as Cahill are dangerous to the com- monwealth and never should be entrusted with a public office.

One can no longer find an appetizer, but, con- sidering the price of food, it is perhaps just as well. and political. He would have been a rare man had he none. That he was pompous, proud and vain, was admitted. That he often erred in po- litical judgment is true. But he was honest, it is believed. That he aimed to work for the welfare of the Mexican people, is claimed. without serious disputation. He thought his plan of taxing for- eign interests in Mexico was for the public good. He did not deserve the fate that overtook him. The slaying of Carranza is another black spot upon the escutcheon of a sister republic. It will take many years of right living to fade the blot from sight; it will take more years before the world entirely forgets the bullet which ended the earthly career of the aged Mexican president. \ EDITORIAL REVIEW Se ERE IEEE EES UEEIEEE Er Comments reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinions of The Tribune. rey are = ave sented here in order vhat our readers may oth sides of important issues which are being diac vy the press of the day. The New York Call, a red socialist daily paper, says: “Good for Townley and the North Dakota farmers. We do not look upon their efforts as a competitor or rival of socialism, but a movement converging on the same road and with the same object. They are socialists whatever other name they may call themselves and are working for the realization of socialism.” The Call is keen in recognizing its kind, and while it is in error as to the rank and file of the farmer members of the league, it has called the turn on the leaders of the movement. The majority of the farmer mem- bers of the league are not socialists and are not in LOO eS TEE sympathy with socialism—but the leaders are JUNE MEMORIES misleading them and the ultimate end of the road In many households of America there are cer-| will ‘bé in the. camp of‘ the socialists.

She is a very busy girl, what with the shopping she does all morning and the long sessions with the dressmaker in the after- noon. Everybody jumps at her command, for she is an autocratic queen, and yet every one craves the privilege to serve her. “Is there anything I can do?” ma asks, as if her hands were not already full, to say nothing of her heart, which is full of such solemn joy as ; she has not felt since her own wedding day. “Dear me, how time flies,’ ma sighs. “It seems only yesterday, pa, that we were married.” Dad puffs busily at his cigar to avoid being , trapped in a sentimental expression. ~ . ) “It’s 22 years ago, and that’s a long time at 1 that,” he answers at length. In his heart there is a vague, unspoken resent- ment against the young man his daughter is go- : ing to marry. Her going is to be'the first break. in the family circle, and it’s this young fellow = who is taking her away!. And ma, divining Dad’s :. thoughts, as she always does, says his brooding that way is just a sign of selfishnets on his part. (Who knows why mothers are joyously philos- : ophical when their daughters marry, and so sad when their sons do the same?) Well, daughter’s young man calls at the house, and, until she comes down, he sits in the parlor with dad. “Will you have a cigar?” says dad. “So the wedding is only a few days off, what? Well! # Well! She’s some girl! Some girl!” He has a lot more to say, but it simply won’t come out.

Our state enterprises are apparently viewed as private preserves by the gang that is running them. | Like the ways of the Heathen Chinee of Bret Harte fame, their ways are “dark and peculiar.” First the state auditor was barred from the Bank of North Dakota and the taxpayers were compelled to accept the statements of the livery stable proprietor who was handling $35,000,000 of our money at their face value. ” Then the books of the workmen’s compensation bureau were closed to the state auditor, and an- other half million or more of state funds was left in the sale control of the crew that is flying the Jolly Roger over the ship of state. And now the state auditor is refused permis- sion to check even the accounts of the state mill at Drake. About $125,000 has been paid ‘into the mill and elevator fund by the state, and so far as the taxpayers know it might have been dropped into the Red river, or into sisal trust stock, or into post-dated checks. The one officer who was elect- ed: for the purpose of checking state funds, is re- fused permission to examine the mill’s accounts. “Why is a state auditor?” is becoming a fair question to ask in North Dakota.—Fargo Forum. FOR PRESIDENT, CONVICT NO. 2253 The socialists exhausted all their stock of rea- son, apparently, when they voted to rid them- selves of the incubus of the tag “dictatorship of the proletariat.” ‘Thereupon they proceeded to nominate as their candidate for president Convict No. 2253 of the Atlanta federal penitentiary— otherwise known as Eugene V. Debs. They came within an ace of adding another convict, Kate Richards O’Hare, as their. vice-presidential candi- date. This is an act of defiance to the American gov- ernment and the American system which may delight the heart of the revolutionist, but will hardly tempt the vote of any American, no mat- ter how radical his economic views may be. But the socialist party lost all its American members by its attitude toward the war—an attitude which was most vividly illustrated by Debs himself when by his fight to defeat America at home he earned the richly deserved sentence that made. him a convict. Hi Shorn by its American members by its disloy- alty, of‘many others by the camouflage of Town- leyism, and of two-thirds of its remaining mem- bership by the development of direct action revo- lutionary movements under various labels, the so- cialist party, with a man convicted of disloyalty as its standard bearer, will march through an in- glorious campaign to its final goal of extinction. | —Duluth Herald, _ ra 29.—President wilson’s flock of sheep is doing nice- ly.

Most of the cities of the United States maintain medical supervision over the health of the school chil- dren, Very few of the schools in the rural districts have such super- vision. -The supervision of the health of children attending school in the rural districts is even more important than the supervision of children in the city, because of the limited medi- cal facilities in most rural districts and the poorly constructed and equip- ped school ‘buildings.

It occurs usually between the ages of 2 and 6 years, and comes on gradu- ally at first. There is a common. be- lief that children will outgrow cross- eyes. This is not true. When left untreated the tendency is for the con- tion to grow worse. ‘Children with cross-eyes should have medical attention a early as possible, because in the majority of cases properly fitted glasses will restore the eyes to their normal con- dition. é AT THE MOVIES | ELTINGE Critics everywhere assert that “Pol- lyanna” is one of the greatest pic- ture-plays ever filmed.

Having in view these expressed pur- poses it is desired that Community Celebrations be planned covering a three day period. The first day is to be observed as “Neighbors Day,” on which it is suggested that local talent be largely utilized, and that pageants, community singing and parades be of draft age was largely due. to ne- | 4 a theme which at the present time has unusually wide appeal. This production will be the feature at the Eltinge theatre commencing ‘Monday. Undoubtedly Mary Pickford, with characteristic far-sightedness, had this in mind when she chose this celebrated’ work’ as “her first vehicle for the United Artists’ corporation. “Pollyanna” is a story with the cheerful philosophy of gladness. It is believed that this production. com- ing at a time when the country is upset by a period of readjustment, will have an unprecedented recep- tion from the picture patrons. ’ POETS’ CORNER. | In the Spring Around us nature has awakened!

Let the slogan of this day be the old. “Hello, ‘Neighbor.” The second day is to ‘be observed as..Community Sunday. It is urged that religious ‘bodies co-operate in centering the country’s thought on the spirit of good will and neighborliness.

The third day occurs on what has for some years been observed as “Flag Day.” ‘Let it be a fitting‘climax of ‘Three Days for Democracy” by ais- playing throughout the state the stars and stripes, bearing in mind that it typifies unity, freedom and true neigh- borliness.
