The} Tribune is replying by reprinting the Herald’s query and publishing a letter to the editor of that newspaper. The editorial in question follows: * * * “Many North Dakotans will be puzzled as to why the Bismarck Tribune’s opposition to the In- dependent campaign has remained in a compara-| tively unformed and indefinite condition until with-| in the past two weeks. The Tribune asserts that it has never been in favor of the recall and has never been in favor of the program of state owned-enter- prises advocated by the Nonpartisan League man- agement, or of the Independent program which it considers almost equally bad; but it has taken the Tribune a long time to get its position into definite form and to inform the people in any systematic way concerning it. The attitude now announced by the Tribune is that of entire opposition to the; recall, denunciation of the Independent program which it holds to be as socialistic as that of the League, the reorganization of the Republican! party for the next primary campaign and the re- tirement of the state from every branch’ of ‘pub- licly owned enterprise. If that attitude had been would have been considered at least ;timely, but the-Tribune has been content to let matters drift until quite recently when it came out, with a full-; fledged program along the lines indicated. “It is interesting to note that yniil very recently the,administration forces, through League officers and other ways, have been putting forth every pos- sible effort, not to win the recall election, but to prevent such an election’s being held. Without the slightest foundation for such statements, they , have caused reports to be circulated in various; ‘sections of the state that the Independents had abandoned the recall. Incipient booms for possible third candidates for governor have. been started here and there, and as fast as one was denied:and denounced, another would spring up-. Recently it} has become so certain, that even the League lead- ers could not hope to create the opposite impres- sion, that the recall election'was to be held and that no third candidate who could by, any -possi- bility be considered anything but an administra- tion stool pigeon would appear in the field, that other methods are neéessary if the defeat of the, League machine is to be prevented. The Bismarck Tribune naturally -defies. all connection with the League or co-operation with it. But it is signfi-| cant at least that the Tribune’s appeal to the | stand-pat sentiment of the state to prevent the! defeat’ of the administration in'the recall‘election and to let things remain as they are until another year, has not taken-real form until the present time. The Tribune doubtless has, an, explanation, and that. explanation if offered will be read with | interest.” * * * The letter in reply to the Herald's query is as| follows: : , "Bismarck, Sept. 16, 1921. Editor Grand Forks Herald, - Grand Forks, N. D. Dear Sir:— 4 You conclude your editorial of recent date en-| titled: “Why Not Earlier”? as follows: i “The Tribune doubtless has an explanation, and} that explanation if offered will be read with in-| terest.” In view of this magnanimous attitude, the pub- lisher and editor of The Bismarck Tribune is writ-| . ing you in hopes that he may convince you and your readers, if you see fit to publish this letter, |i that the attitude of The Tribune is not an eleventh) hour conviction or arrived at because of the pres: | sure of political expediency. In February of this year before the recall had been considered a possibility The Tribune issued of such a political slap stick and believes that the \June primaries only a few months distant afford a battle ground to fight out the issues without recourse to the recall. * * * In examining this pamphlet you will find on page 6 the following extract from an editorial written Feb. 12: : “The Tribune has always and is now opposed to the entire industrial program. It does not be- lieve that it is a proper function of state govern- ment to engage in any business enterprise because such’a program almost without exception is a waste of public funds. “When the Independents (The I. V. A.) pro- Tribune opposed such a compromise and has never seen any good reason to change its attitude.” This was written as we have said early in Feb- ruary and completely answers your editorial. On Feb. 12, The Tribune said editorially: “Compromise on fundamentals is wrong and never got an individual or a state very far. to the people on a platform untainted by social- istic expedients — it is just as well to nurse the patient along until there are enough fearless lead- jers to fight the issues out on clean cut lines. “But further compromise never.” 2h irisemod You will find in the pamphlet many quotations along the same line showing that The Tribune took a clear definite stand before the recall issue was raised. Every county practically west of the James river meeting in county conventions previ- ous to the Devils Lake convention was either luke warm or hostile to the recall. Had the I. V. A. managers heeded--sentiment as expressed there, the recall would have been promptly shelved. Following Burleigh county’s convention of In- dependents which opposed the recall, The Tribune denounced such a political coup d’etat with all the vigor it possessed. We trust that we have completely answered your charges that The Tribune was a long time in getting its position into definite form. Probably press of.other matters has made you forgetful of these many evidences that The Tribune stand was formulated months prior to Buy. recall conven- tion. Will you do The Tribune the kindness in view of the challenge you have made to; place this let- ter before’ your readers so that they might read as you say “with interest” any explanation The Tribune may: wish to make to your editorial of raerasieed Ww entitled: “Why Not Earlier?” ‘A COMMUNITY CHORUS" * 4 If there i is any project ‘the citizens should back to the limit, it is the inculcation of a taste and a popular demand for good music. The Business and’ Professional Women’s club are sponsoring a movement for a community chorus. Its aim has been well stated by a musical authority of high; rank: “To make good music ‘Popular and to make popular music.” years. War intervened to break up organized en- deavor, ‘although real community singing came into its own under the impetus of patriotic fervor during the world war. But with the signing of the armistice and dur- ing the period of readjustment that followed these mass efforts to popularize music and to get people| to sing for the joy and.the culture it affords have been sadly neglected. The effort i wae e,,community singing by the aaganiaate mr gbllcats ior ‘is a most worthy- one. A i ar nothing more inspiring than a-great oratorio or a cantata well given. Aside froni3the personal or individual benefit) which comes ‘from the training and associations formed at the rehearsals, there is greater and more chorus can assist in, civic programs. It can do! much in cooperation'-with-the organized musical clubs of the city to promote community effort along musical lines. LIKE TURNING ELECTRIC LIGHT ON What is this “life force” that makes you con- 'scious — enables you to move your body? And what is death? Hereward Carrington, in a new book, offers the itheory that life is a force, existing outside the body, which “manifests through the body.” He believes death is not an ending of life, but a physi- cal condition in which the mysterious life current is shut off. Like an electric light. The body is the glass; bulb. Nerves and muscles are the tungsten fila- ments. Turn on the current. You have life. Turn it off. That’s desth.
