It devolves then upon some party official in power to eall Republicans together in an effort to com- pose their’ @ifferences and to secure a ticket that will be victorious. If that cannot be done, then there will be as ‘many tickets in the field as there are factions and it takes little imagination under the primary system to know what will happen. Senator McCumber on the strength of his record is entitled to another term backed by the solid sup- port of Republicans. ‘There is every evidence, how- ever, of a drive against Senator McCumber by the men wno control the I. V. A. organization. The most radical of these are saying openly: “We will defeat him with a Republican if pos- sible, but failing at the primaries, we will wheel. in line behind a Democrat in November and see if that plan of attack will work.’’ Anything to defeat McCumber is the ery of some of the Mugwump leaders. Those interested, in harmonizing factions in the Republican party. should give such party feudists short shrift. Many of them are clamoring for the I. V.

The sub- jects of the films are educational all the way from building silos to getting rid of ticks. In developing the movie .as an educational de- vice, the farm will lead the city. That is natural, for the farmer works first, plays jafterward. Most city people are less productive. They work chiefly to attain the one end, pleasure. The Lineoln Highway Association reports 327 miles of new construction added to the highway in 1921. brs This is’ good news, for good ‘paved roads and rail- ways now are the arteries of distribution. Their. cost, though, is terrific. That would be the great advantage of shifting traffie to airplanes—no roads to pave, no pave- ments to repair, no steel rails to lay and replace, no ballasting of rail beds. REFORESTATION In New York state the forestry conservation com- lmission has 130,000 fast-growing baby trees. It of- fers these at very low prices, as part of the reforesta- McCumber’s friends regard naturally with consid-|tion program. erable distrust. - Former Senator Gronna wants the nomination ‘yom the I. V. A. organization and at this writing seems the most powerful contender for that distine- tion. He is working as hard for the I. V. A. endorse- ment as he did for the Nonpartisan endorsement when he was persona grata with Townley and Lemke. : But as Republicans these factional differences should be composed in the interest of party sue There is only one man who can call.a conference in the present exigency and that is Gunder Olson of Fargo, Republican national committeeman. It is not possible to get action through the Re- publican state central committee chairman as he is a nonpartisan leaguer. If it were not for that fact, -he would be the logical man to call a conference of “Republicans to talk over party matters. o On the other hand is Burleigh Spalding, and the Tribune has no quarrel with him, but he is as un- acceptable to a large body of Republicans as the ‘Republican chairman selected under. the election laws who happens to be an out and’ out leaguer, as Spalding is an out and out I.

If the Republican ranks are to be divided in the primaries, it is not very: hard to foretell the results. : Let the national committeeman call a meeting of | Republicans and let the test of a Republican be one who will sign the national platform adopted at Chicago upon which the Republican party fought its national campaign. That platform surely is ae-/ * F y ‘of architects and contractors, of laxity and per-! functory performance, if not outright neglect of , ceptable to all republicans for purposes of seating delegates in the convention. The convention itself could decide what to do in the formulation of a state program. Contention may be so bitter ‘in the Republican ranks that no convention truly representative of the party can be-held. If such a situation develops, the state will be left to the tender mercies of the primary. No faction need delude itself into think- ing that jt will have a.clear track. If the I. V.

DESERVES ANOTHER TERM * Senator McCumber deserves much credit and consideration for the fight he has put up in Con- |gress to secure seed for North Dakota. He has ikept posted on the conditions and the needs of his ‘home state and has been working incessantly to iget an appropriation that would bring relief. The \fact that he is a senior senator and occupies the ‘chairmanship of the most important senate com- ‘mittee assisted him in getting an appropriation ithrough. ae A junior senator would not get very far with an ‘appropriation these times. Senator McCumber jhas reached a position in the senate of prominence ‘and influence\and it would be folly for North Da- ‘kota to think of replacing him with a new man, ‘who would have no prestige in the senate. Mc- \Cumber is in a position where he can do some- |thing for North Dakota. It is a good plan to let well enough alone and give him another term.— ‘The Carson Press.. !

This'is “Enchant- ment,” a Cosmopolitan-Paramount pic- ture starring ‘Marion Davies. It is a story of a modern girl “flapper” who believes in having a gcod time and has it. Her parents cannet understand her, ‘but she understands them jn one word—old-fashioned. They are not quite st Slow as she imagines, for when the father decides to take her in hand he does so thoroughly. How the girl, Ethel, reacts tae regimen and what happens to the father’s carefully laid plans, compose the 2igh spots of the story. It is the best picture in which Miss Davies has been seen for a long time and it has an absoluttly interesting story. The picture was directed by Robert G. Vignola, and it’s based on Frank R. Adams’ story “Man-handling Ethel.” The support was excellent. Oa ovo (ut eee (2 ES cS . There are children’ in New York whe think birds and flowers grow on ats.
