The Nestos administration has stood in greater need of McCumber’s endorsement than has the senator’s campaign needed the impetus of the backers’ of the present administration : The arguments for-the return of Senator Mc- Cumber are as strong and vital as ever and should not be affected one way or another by the endorse- ment. That some of his followers who are displeased with the Jamestown program and the political maneuvers of Theodore Nelson and others wil’ be disappointed ig natural. They should not abate “their good work to keep North Dakota’s senator at the head of the finance committe, however. Political blunders of campaign managers should not be given too deep a significance. Those independents who have entered the cam- paign on 2 program to clean the slate of state socialism will doubtless continue unabated their campaign. McCumber was not responsible for their entry into the campaign and is as powerless to compel their withdrawal. Mr. Hughes evidently feared that McCumber ‘would be charged with the responsibility of these ‘eandidacies and he has impetuously forced Sen- ator McCumber into a hurried and eleventh hour disclaimer. None of McCumber’s friends is mis- -lead and his campaign will go forward as vigor- ously as ever for North Dakota cannot suffer the “loss of the prestige now gained in the position , Senator McCumber holds in the United States “senate. * How the henchmen of Gov. Nestos who. have been vigorously opposing Senator McCumber wil! “receive the statement and abate their opposition zis the next important development.

Since the signing of the Armistice about $8,- 500,000,000 of oil and gas ‘stock has been floated While these figures are for face value, and & lot of this stock has been marketed below par, it is obvious that more money is going into the ground, in the oil country, than is being taken out.

COMFORT Two of the big manufacturers of men’s collars are sued, charged with making imitations of the patented unstarched collar invented by John M. Van Heusen, of Baltimore. Isaac L, Phillips, whose company makes the collar, says that the inventor’s idea was scorned by big manufacturers over a long period, during which Van Heusen vainly sought financial back- ing. No matter how good a device or service, its suec- _cess is at least three-fourths a matter of salesman- ‘ship. Every one should study salesmanship, the short-cut to fair wage, salary or profit. Van Heu- sen became successful as soon as he learned how to sell his idea. REINCARNATION Boston is interested in a woman named Antinea, who claims she is the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian queen. : Antinea is a movie actress. While her reincar- nation claim sounds as if a clever press agent urks in the background, it is interesting that ~many millions of people believe they “lived before ‘on earth. Maybe you wonder, yourself, at times. = It is a fascinating belief, a reaction from the -Aniversal desire to escape death or extinction, The reincarnationists usually are modest enough ito admit that in previous existences they werc ‘Napoleon, Queen Elizabeth and similar person- ij vation of our lands—Jamestown Alert.

SUPER-WOMEN Senorita Graciala Mandujano asks: “Who are the 12 greatest living women?” She wants to write articles about them for newspapers in her home country, Chile. The National League of Women Voters, to which the Senorita’s question is directed, “asks averybody’s help in answering.” What 12 names do you suggest? Our 12 greatest women are the mothers of our 12 greatest men. To a man’s mother goes at least two-thirds of the credit for what he is. What he is not, usually, is his own fault. FLAPPERS “A statuette of a flapper who existed. in Egypt 5000° years ago is exhibited in Boston Art Museum. It was dug out of an ancient tomb. The statuette shows the flapper making bread. Her hair is bobbed and appears to have a “‘perma- nent.” After 5000 years the earth’s toiling millions still are bobbing hair and baking bread. Life runs in cycles,'eternal repetition.

They are presented here in order that our readers have both sides of. important issues which are being discussed in the press of the day. FUTURE LAND SALES ARE PROMISING Lands in other states that were sold to specu- lators at extreme. values may be one means of securing new citizens to North Dakota, for our lands are still low in price. Parties who bought lands during and immediately following the war, find that they cannot make the payments in states like Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and Illinois. The result of those high prices paid for acres of farm land is seen in the large number of foreclosure sales. The slump in farm prices for 1920 precipitated the great loss in farm land values in other states, and farm crop losses in North Dakota. It is’ be- lieved that adverse legislation in this state has had much to do in keeping out prospective farmers, ind the enormous increase in taxation has been one result of bad legislation. But all of this may soon be removed as an ob- jetion to this state, because our land values have never been artificially raised. A man can buy North Dakota lands at the present prices and with good farming methods, make an acre produce, in ordinary years, a profit for the labor and money invested in it. > “The trend of agricultural prices is at present very favorable compared with previous months. Prices of farm products are rapidly coming back to normal,” according to the farm economist at the state agricultural college. The prices of hogs 2ompared to corn favors the feeding of hogs, while wool, hay, cattle, hogs and corn have gained, and the price of wheat is somewhat higher, although there is little left in this state to sell. Butter re- mains about the same and the only two farm prod- ucts that have lost materially are potatoes and eggs.

UTILITY BUSINESS PUBLIC BY HENRY L. DOHERTY President, Cities Service Company Don’t play the other fellow’s game! The valuable man to any company is the man who can do a thing better than anyone else, or who can do a thing ‘that no one else can do, ‘foo many men neglect a careful study of their owa line of work because they are more’ interested in somethin else. ’ Baseball is a fine game anid I like it, but if 1 have a salesman who is an up-to-the minute authority on, bat- ting averages and. fielding records during and even after busincss hours, 1'know that he is more interested in baseball than in the sale of our se- curities, There are lots of employes who, although intetligent, studious and in some instances even brilliant, never get very far. Their troubles are vari- ous. In one instance such a man’s stumbling block was theaters, not so much seeing plays as the dzvotion of a great part of his spare time to pick- ing up the patter of the profession and its personnel, He wasn’t-in the theatrical producing business and the effort he was expending cdrtainly would not offer him any opportunity for capitalizing it. It is the man who studies the work he is doing,‘the man ahead of him and his work, and fits himself to move up when. the time comes, who wins success in the utility or any other business. 5 A great deal of time'can be wasted in discussing political campaigns, The same amount of energy used in such a discussion could well-be applied in | AT THE THEATERS | * THE ELTINGE, Jack Holt’ appears at the Eltinge Tuesday and Wednesday in “The Grim Comedian,” a. dramati¢ story » with flimpses behind the’ fascinating foot lights of a Broadway musical show.

ALL WRONG The Mistake Is Made by Many Bis- marck Citizens. Look for the cause of backache, To be cured you must know the cause. If it's weak kidneys you must set the kidneys working right. Ask your neighbor! A Bismarck resident tells you how. Mrs. Jack Kenyon, 417 Mandan Ave., says: “Several years ago I gave a public recommendation for Doan’s Kidney Pills after the benefit one of my family had received. Since then I have had.occasion to use them myself for an attack of kidney trouble. I had puffy sacs underneath my eyes and pains in my back. It was hard for me to do my housework at times. My kidneys acted irreeularly, too. Three boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills cured me and I am glad to again recom- mend Doan’s, knowing them to be a remedy of wonderful merit. The cure they made for me has lasted several years.” 1 60c. at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs, Buffalo, N, Y. mein me = ane.
