Wis- consin has demonstrated that, while it may be spotted, it is sound at the core and determined to show the world that Berger’s victories were merely local, a canker as it were on the body politic. , The Wisconsin idea as advanced by La Fol- Jette sowed the wind, and the Northwestern states, North Dakota included, are now reaping the whirlwind. The success of Lenroot, -once part of the La Follette machine but now his op- ‘ ponent, indicates that the laboratory state for “advanced”: ideas in government is tired of the theories and determined to renounce the dicta- tion of the La Follette group. When Governor Philipp was elected it was the first serious rebuke given the “Little Giant.” His success was due to the indignation of the voters over the increasing cost of government and the multiplication of commissions caused by the, undue influence of the professorial ring in the University of Wisconsin which Senator La Follette used as the keystone of his political or-, ganization. Senator Lenroot’s attitude during the war was one of unstinted patriotism and in direct contrast to his colleague. Wisconsin has redeemed much of her political past. It soon will be too cool for summer furs. NO SOLACE FOR DEMOCRATS ‘Results from Wisconsin, New Hampshire and Georgia afford poor comfort for the Democratic party and scant consideration for its major issue, —the League of Nations. Republicans: are tight- ening their grip upon senate control, and Presi- dent Wilson’s covenant is being decisively repu- diated. 7 Senator Lenroot favors. the Republican for- eign policy as outlined by the Chicago platform and the utterances of Senator Harding. He has been renominated by what may be a plurality of 45,000 votes. i In New Hampshire; where the women partici- pated, Senator Moses was endorsed by the Re- publicans opposed to the Wilson league of na- tions. He ran on a strictly “bitter ender” plat- form by a vote that should impress the Demo- crats with popular feeling in the east over the bungling policies of the Democrats. The repudiation: of Wilson’s fourteen points in Georgia by his fellow Democrats‘ is most sig- -nificant. Incomplete returns indicate that Tho- mas E. Watson has been nominated over the can- didate who stood for the Wilsonian foreign alli- ance. Watson, during his campaign, was out- spoken in his opposition to the league of nations and to the Wilson regime. : These results should spur the Republicans to greater effort in presenting to the nation the real menace underlying the entire Democratic scheme of foreign alliances. When telegraphing for the price of a ticket home, don’t forget’ to ask for 20 per cent more than you used to. NEEDS TIGHTENING UP : Arthur C.'Townley’s political machine is short a few bolts and seems to be hitting on but one of the twin sixes. Chauffeur Craig has a big job ahead of him to repair the chariot of the New Day. It needs a few coats of paint, several new spokes in the wheels and a general overhauling - of the engine. Defection is widespread and acute. Langer, Hall and Kositzky nearly wrecked the machine in the June primaries and the pieces were hardly reassembled when naughty “Job” and “Jim” mussed them up. Then, biting at Townley’s heels is Wehe, the ousted member of the workmen’s compensation bureau. Dupuis, member of the railroad com- AS MAINE GOES. Women will participate soon in the Maine election for the first time since ratification of the federal amendment.* The primaries will be held September 13. Interest centérs in the senatorial contest in which the league of nations is a live issue, : The students of suffrage are watching for the Maine results, believing that the woman vote of that state will be a fair indication of what will take place in other states next November. But, of course, the nation no longer puts much faith in the legend that “as Maine goes so goes the nation.” The trend of modern politics has exploded most theories and upset the careful cal- culations of seasoned politicians. Maine results, however, will be interesting, | and an analysis of the way the women vote will indicate to all parties just where they must put their best effort between now and November 2. Secretary Baker asserts that Senator Harding is a‘hundred years behind the times—almost as far behind as Baker was regarding preparedness. AN ABSENTEE GOVERNMENT | Taxpayers of the state must realize the kind of service they are getting from the present administration. Regardless of political bias or prejudice, the people of North Dakota are en- titled to something for their money. Dilatory tactics are the order of the day in many depart- ments whose-members seldom see the inside of their offices except when it comes time to sign the payroll. ae ‘The most glaring instance is in the board of railroad commissioners which under the new law is intrusted with the supervision of railroad mat- ters and control of public utilities. Recently the railroads were summoned to a hearing on rates. Their experts and those of the state put in sev- eral days going over the data. The taxpayers’ money was spent on investigation, and it was believed that the order promulgated recently and signed expressed the wish and desire of the board, all members of whom were elected to their jobs through the activity of the Townley regime. It can hardly be charged that the league’s three commissioners are the servants of Big Biz. When the order is duly issued and the roads begin preparations to put the, new tariffs into effect, Comrade William Lemke proceeds, against Townley’s, board of railroad commissioners set- ting forth that there was irregularity. He fur- ther contends that certain experts in the bureau never saw the order increasing the rates and that Commissioner Dupuis, Townley’s own commis- sioner, remember, usurped to himself extra legal powers and forced Secretary Calderhead, Town- ley’s own secretary of the commission, to sign the order. The Tribune holds no brief for any of the railroads .and is in_no position to state whether the.rates were properly revised or not. It is not discussing the merits of that issue here, but it must be plain to everyone that the horseplay which followed arouses in the minds of many a serious doubt whether: there is any administra- tion functioning at the capitol building. Lemke descends upon his own commission with an army of process servers and ties up the orders of Townley’s henchmen. Then the Courier News comes out in big type and compliments Lemke upon saving the state from the acts of the league’s own commissioner, Mr. Dupuis. They even get their pencils out and:-figure how many dollars Lemke is saving the farmers by restrain- ing league office-holders from boosting the rail- road rates. Then, to make the alibi more com- plete, they secure an affidavit from another com- missioner, stating that he was not present and that the whole affair was railroaded through by a fellow commissioner.. The third commissioner was absent, too, and as yet to our knowledge Lemke has received no affidavit from him. The whole affair is a sorry commentary upon the kind of government North Dakota has drifted into. It would be humorous, if it were not. the fact, that horseplay of this kind breaks down con- fidence in and respect for all government. -A sad picture: Comrade Lemke resorting to the courts to. protect the farmers from their own commission. z Has it gotten as bad as that, Lemke? A 1913 nickel without the buffalo’s head on it is worth $600; all the rest are worth ‘a cent and a half. The bouquets that, Candidate Cox throws at the New York police won’t make much of a hit with the Traffic Squad. 4 Theatrical people complain that some companies can’t travel now because of the increased railroad rates. That’ll be a relief. « The dancing masters have voted against jazz They’re for the and in favor: of the old waltz. mission, has been: disciplined in several ways. | Blue Danube instead of the Danube Blues.

Physicians now ‘know that almost every person. posseses a certain; amount of immunity ‘to various | diseases, an immunity which may bet inherited, as that! due to‘ the trans- mission of antitoxin from mother to offspring or may be acquired as that which follows an attack of commun- icable disease. It is largely to the great French scientist, Pasteur, that we owe an un- derstanding of this immunity.

Unless decidedly | warmer, weather, comes, the bulk ol the crop will be out of frost danger until the end of September in Ohic and but 67 per cent of the crop in Iowa will be safe by that date, whil one to three are still needed in Ne- braska, Corn needs warm, dry anc ‘sunshine weather in practically al! central districts. % The weather was mostly favorablk for harvesting’ in the far rorthwest and for threshing generally, cxcept for some delay on acccunt of rair over the Great, Plains.

My appetite was tery poor and the little I did manage to eat always disagreed with me. I was so nervous, thatthe clinking of type- writers, ringing of telephone. bells and other noise around the offi me distracted and it was utterly in possible for me to get a good night's sleep. I had terrible spells of headache and often became so dizzy that I would fall, I kept getting worse until [ had to give up my position and could not even do my housework, “A friend who had taken Tanlac advised me to try it. I commenced improving right from the first, and in a short while 1 was feeling like a different person. I now feel as well and strong as I ever did in my life and can do my housework with per- fect ease. I have a splendid appetite, can eat three hearty meals every day and never suffer a particle afterward. I have gained several pounds in weight, my nerves are as_steady as can be, and I can sleep like a child all night long. I never have a head- ache or become dizy any more, and in fact am a well woman once more.” Tanlac is sold in Bismarck by Jos. Breslow, in Driscoll by N. D. and J. H. Barrette, in Wing by H. P.

Con- gressman Blatant—beg pardon, [ mean Blanton—was re-elected in the recent Texas primary. Once Blanton made a_ two-hour speech on “powder” mentioned in a War Department appropriation bill, ridiculing the young officers for us- ing.a. powder puff and condemning the department heads for furnishing it to the girls in the department. He | refused to yield the floor,*but when he’finished another congressman in- formed Blanton’ that the powder in question was to kill ants. * George F. Weeks, manager of the Mexican News _ Bureau, _ recently bought a second-hand desk from J. F. Binstein, who said ‘that President Wilson formerly used it.

The box was iddressed to President Woodrow Wil- gon, was sent from Philadelphia, Sept. 23, 1913, and Anside was a small 3old cross with the name Annie C: aey engraved on it.

Hart to portray a redblooded “two-gun” role in a picture abuut the West of the olden, golden days. Such a photoplay is “The Toll Gate,” which was enjoyed by a large audi- ence at the Eltinge theatre last even- ing. z It is the first of the picture to be released by Paramount <Arteraft that were produced -by Wiliam S. Hart's own company and under his personal supervision. Unquestionably it is among his best offerings. ‘ Mr. Hart has the role of Black Deering, a slashing, hard-riding ban- dit chief. Betrayed by one of his men, Deering is captured by U. S. troopers, but he manages to escape and, with the sheriff's posse hot on his trail, finally reaches seclusion af- ter many thrilling scenes. In a little clearing he comes upon the cabin of Mary Brown and learns that she is the deserted wife of the man who gave him up to the law. In the days that follow, influenced by her noble character, Deering surrenders to the sheriff. In a subsequent encounter, he kills his betrayer and for his good conduct on that and previous occa- sions is allowed his freedom, provid- ed he keeps south of the Mexican border. Mary Brown loves him and wishes to accompany him, but Deer- ing, mindful of his dishonorable. past, feels he is unworthy and departs alone. “The Toll Gate” was written by Wil- liam S. Hart and Lambert Hillyer, and the latter directed the picture. Anna Q. Nilsson is the leading wo-, man, and a prominent member of the cast is Mr. Hart’s remarkably in- telligent Pinto pony.
