In fact Ford had the, » Democratic national: machine behind him ‘spend-| Jing money and lending assistance in various ways. | * His election meant much to President Wilson and| the fate of the Mersailles, treaty. Much ‘of ‘the, storm of fury: tha irdke about Newberry’s head! = was caused by. the‘Democrats who knew what a/ 7 Ford victory meant to: their party’s future... The; a few Republicans ' including the junior senator} & from this state who joined the Democrats were . doubtless sincére in’ their conviction that New- berry should be unseated. ‘ j . An impartial survey of the Michigan situation} proves that both factions went the limit to put their men over. The expose should have a salu- , tary effect upon political practices, but there was! so much hypocrisy and cheap cant on the part; of Newberry’s persecutors that the contest onj the seat narrowed down almost to a party issue —a few recalcitrant Republicans joining the Dem-| ocrats whose chief desire was not. to purge the senate but to stir up trouble in the ranks of the! + majority. : 2M aus ee i uit If those persons who ever wore a “We Stick; Button” or subscribed to the league program in the heyday of its power are to be read. out of ac-| tive politics—there will be some familiar names| _ missing in North Dakota’s political news and com-| ;. ment. i ee “PEPPING” UP BUSINESS Retary clubs act as dynamos, stirring up. com- munities and dispelling the spirit of pessimism; 3 and despair. The: New York. Rotary club is en- gaged in a very worthy enterprise which has for] its purpose the creation of a more wholesome at- » mosphere in business. Considerable of the busi- ness depression is psychological. There is noth- ing so bad but that wrong thinking can make it! worse. , Realizing that business can ‘easily slip| into a rut, the Rotary clubs are acting as a unit = in the publicity drive to “pep” up business. President Harding opened the campaign with a : Message over his own signature that has been| placed on billboards throughout the nation. Pub-| lishing houses, advertising agencies, newspapers | ,. and business houses have donated their services| and merchandise to make the campaign effective. | : The Tribune reproduced one of the advertise- ¢ ments last week and will print, several more in.the| campaign of cheerfulness...Drawings in this ser-| les are from the pen of Cesare, famous illustrator | /j of the New York Times and who until recently , did cartoon work for the New York Sun and Post. | % The Frank Presbery Agency has written the copy| which has a very potent appeal at this time. Businessmen are urged to read these advertise- ments. Absorb their spirit and carry it into every4 day transactions, , You will be surprised how far : you can radiate a cheerful, sane optimism.

That’s at the rate of! 40,000,000 letters a year. i The cost of carrying a ton of mail by flying Fifth Ave. Bldg.’ machine average $8 a mile in 1920. It was cut {to $6 a mile in 1921. The cost soon will be down! to $2.60 a mile, due to improved airplanes now! being put in use. Y, chine. It requires no stretching of the imagination to| picture all mail -being carried by the air route.; That may come within five years. 7 Someone has made the prediction that in a few years mail will be carried by invisible postmen. Letters and parcels will be loaded into airplanes controlled by wireless. f The airplanes, with nobody aboard, will rise into the air at, say, New York, fly like an arrow ‘and land in San Francisco, operated and steered by wireless. . Important experiments along this line have just been successfully completed in France. Wireless- controlled airplanes, without crews, were kept in the air for an hour and navigated about as easily as if a pilot were aboard. ~ The wireless-controlled ‘airplane shows how man is conquering the invisible. It is millions ‘of times more wonderful than the Hindu fakir’s trick of moving small objects without touching them — as the fakir put it, power of mind over =| The wireless: is, man’s, most, uncanhy invention. It may Meo aevebe: Bie st important. Many now living:may see the day: when the sky will be dotted with swarms of crewless airplanes, controlled by wireless: and getting their motive power by wireless, carrying mail, express, passen- gers and even freight. We are on the threshold of an age which will be almost supernatural in its wonders. The whole form of civilization. including all ways of doing things, will soon be transformed by the magicians lof science. BREAD ‘ A big eastern chain store system cut the price of bread to 5 cents for a 16-ounce loaf. This probably is prophetic of further cuts in the general cost of living. ( So go wheat and bread, the staff of life, so go '.. all prices. The stomach regulates all economics. \ + Some of the state papers are starting to classify ‘all politicians who have ever trained with the league or formed alliances with them as “unde- sirables.” Even suspicion of an alliance, in one correspondent’s estimation, will be sufficient If the rule is ad- hered to, many prospective candidates will be scratched before the opening gun is fired. Let us watch the sanctified ones, who are without sin. throw the first stone. John Andrews, editor of the Courier-News, is having lots of fun these days. Few men know North Dakota politics better. He has been in the thick of most battles during the last twenty years. As editor of the Lidgerwood Broadaxe, he sup- ported the insurgent wing of the Republican par- ty. Later he was Thomas Hall's deputy and a bitter opponent of tie S¢ “Kaction. He drifted into the league’movement a few years ago. “Andrews ‘knows the curves of North Dakota politics and wields a nasty pen when he wants to.

FINANCIAL MIRACLES According to an announcement by the farmers’ national council, which is working in Washington Grain corporation and a government. guarantee to the farmer of $2.50 per bushel for his wheat, the standard 14-ounce loaf of bread can profitably be sold for 5 cents if farmers get $2.50 for their ‘wheat simply by preventing profiteering by those) ™2". who operate between the farmer and the consumer of wheat products.

D., Jan. 16—At the an- nual meeting of the stockholders of ; the First National Bank, Tuesday, ne changes wére made except in the presidency, Rasmus Jensen succeed- ing>M. S. Cuskelly. Mr. Cuskélly pos- itively refused to continue longer in that capacity due tot advancing age and a desire to rest from active re- sponsibility. ‘Mr. Cuskelly has been president of this institution since it was absorbed by the old Northwestern State ‘directorate and held the same position with the latter during its ex- istence. His’ ability, judgment and conservatism have in a great measure contributed to the upbuilding of this powerful institution. He and Mrs. Cuskelly will continue their residence The new president, Rasmus Jen- sen, is not only popular with the stockholders of the bank but with its patrons as well. He is a ptoneer in this territory and well acquainted with its. needs and resources. There is honor and responsibility of the new position with credit to himself, profit to the stockholders and / satisfaction to the many patrons of the First Na- tional Bank of Killdeer, W. L.
