EEO MEMORIAL DAY The deep significance of Memorial Day is felt this year not only by millions of American people but by millions of Europeans, Canadians, Aus- tralians, and others who join us in strewing the graves of soldier dead with flowers. North Dakota as well as the other states sent the finest of her young men to serve on land and on sea. Many have returned to their former oc-! cupations, but some:found. resting places while on the shell shot fields, °'ft'is to the memory of these loved.sons that we assemble in memoriam today. The beautiful custom of placing garlands upon the graves of our honored dead had its origin with the women of the South during the tragic days of the.Civil War. It was one of those sym- bolic acts which touched the heart of the Amer- ican nationgand took root. By its founders it was regarded as ’a-lay All Soul’s Day dedicated to the consecration of the glorified dead. Today, our recent allies from all parts of the globe unite with us in wreathing the graves of their soldiers. The poppy of Flanders’ fields sig- nifies the same deep thoughts in the hearts of the Frenchmen, the Englishmen, the Belgians, and Although our tribute of recollection is deeply eroes, yet it extends far back to days of ’76, of 1, and of ’98 when the names of eternal liverty | union were as sacred to our boys as in ’L7. our memory lies the greatest monument to our iers, A COMMON MISTAKE In\esignating ‘certain candidates as Tribune es,” the’ Mandan Pibneer falls ‘into a mis- mon to.some newspapers which believe lal bondage. The ‘Tibune is not being run in the interests of | te. It proposes to place before its reafers in| tolerant manner the platforms of all caypdidates. \That is a duty a newspaper owes to it readers. ‘ There is tomuch prevalency of the idea’ that Newspapers ére\ conducted primarily to’ boost “ception of thé\contemporary across the Big, “Muddy. Probabl its political policies are boiler plated, not so wit\ the ‘Tribune. Norton, Lauder \y as many others as desired could have entered\the senatorial race without arousing the ire of The Tribune. The primary law woxks in a mysterious way, its wonders to b igns in this state who seem ining” themielves to put politics on “a high moral plane” so h\gh indeed that neutral- ity in politics will be rega&ded the same as dis- loyalty in time of war, hate courage enough to he abottion of the primary law and take an urge; : honed ‘and on state, gociall , there may be a nearel” approach to the*consis\ency the Mandan Pioneer prays for—¥in others. ., The Tribune is not’concerned\ with the political fortunes of ay’ politician or candidate. It’ would like \to see ‘emphatic in- dictment of state socialism anda triumph ‘of Re- publican principles, June 28. \But under the pri- mary law, there is nothing: syre but \death* and taxes—so why worry. The people}will get in the) final analysis just the kind of government their indifference allows or their alertness fo tha issues dictates. : ae All the newspapers of the state need orjcan do is to put the issues fairly before their readers—! they are the sole judges. The Mandan Pioneer probably would like to mark all the ballots in, their territory—but such is hardly possible under. our “representative form” of government. So let us all be content if we carry the truth to the people—that is the real function of a news: $ a newspaper cally the same device. : After years of litigation, the national Supreme Court decided in favor of Bell. Bell got to the Patent Office’a few hours ahead of Gray.. The short delay cost’ Gray what patent attorneys -call “the most valuable single patent ever. granted.” Being punctual pays. Delay usually means ab- solute failure, in the long run. STRAP-HANGERS The overhead trolley electric street car has its thirty-fourth birthday. Robert I. Todd, president of the American Electric Railway Association, orates about the industry. He finds that the number of passengers carried by trolley companies dropped off from 7,606,190,- 270 in 1920 to 7,144,332,920 in 1921. Meaning, that nearly half a billion times last year someone was hard-up enough to decide to use his legs in- stead of paying fare. Walking, however, is unexcelled for the health. Everything has its good side—even hard times. SUCCESS How long to raise to the top of the ladder? Har- vard Business College claims its graduates usual- ly reach an executive desk in six months. The average successful business man will look back and recall that it took him from 6 to 12 years to become an executive after leaving high school and striking out for himself. Young men, now graduating and ready to begin the battle of life, can make a short-cut to success by realizing that this is an age of specialization, with victory quickest to the man who trains for a definite goal. Drifters usually fail. LASTING Genghis Kahn’s followers swooped down on Bagdad, then the world’s greatest city. They beheaded 800,000 of its several: millions of in- habitants. ? : Mohammed, in the city. of Samarkand, saw the Chinese warriors approaching. He fled, saying: “The-Mongols are so many that they could fill the moat around this city with their horsewhips.” Today Genghis Khan and his successors are for- gotten, but 230,000,000 people are Mohammedans. Religion is the most powerful force among hu- mans. EDITORIAL REVIEW Commente reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune. They are presented here in order that our readers may bave both eides of important iss which are being discussed to the press of the day. a MEMORIAL DAY There will be a good deal said about our war purpose on this Memorial Day, and a good deal left unsaid. Orators will tell a thousand audiences that our dead have not died in vain, but will be careful not to. undertake proof of their statement. It is too complicated just now for most of us to figure it out in words of one syllable. Probably the orators will do as well not to un- dertake complete demonstration of just why we are confident that our sacrifice was right and by precisely what processes it is to triumph. It was many, many years after the Man of Galilee made his sacrifice on the cross before any appreciable number cf humans knew that it had not been made in vain. Today hundreds of millions jknow \and can say why. Already we know that part, of our war gift of blood has won a return in bettering mankind, and we can abide with faith in the redsonable certainty that the full reward is coming, and coming with a speed unknown to earlier ages of progress. The Nation’s complete tribute to its hero dead will be made this year with good reason to hope that even this generation shall see the entire ful- fillment of the faith in which they fell. — Stars and Stripes.
