Judge Hallam, Former Governor Burnquist and Congres: -man Schall split the opposition while a few other minor can- didates aided ably in breaking up any possible combination against the Preus organization which evidently stood the; test well. Preus is the logical Republican candidate. It was known} that Senator Nelson preferred him. He is also looked upon | net be lowered. Also, w ag the only man who can beat the radical element now under the banners of Magnus Johnson. Senators Frazier, Ladd, La Follette, Townley and others together with Senator Shipstead will make a determined effort to put Johnson over. It doubtless will be a hard fight efor Preus and those who believe in sound constitutional gov- ernment should rally to his support despite the animosities stirred up by the recent battle. The fact that the Farmer-Labor candidates for United States senator failed to poll their normal vote is not signifi- cant of any slump in the nonpartisan league stock. The vote over the entire state was far below par and in the ranks of the radicals there was a tacit agreement not to throw mud or to make it impossible for a harmonious union of forces in the election next month. Governor Preus defeated Magnus Johnson for governor hy slightly more than 14,000 votes last fall and his organ- ization had a rather bad fright. The election of Shipstead has given the radicals a tighter organization than they had} last fall. While the Democrats apparently stand little chance in Minnesota, they may be able to poll enough votes to place another radical in the United States senate. Preus is in far greater danger in facing Johnson for senatorial honors than he was in the state fight, for the national party of radical- ism will bring their organization to Minnesota and flood the state with their most astute campaigners. Magnus Johnson is well known to North Dakotans. For years he was the political wheelhorse of George Loftus — the forerunner of A. C. Townley. Johnson toured this state in 1910-1915 in the interests of the American Society of Equity and more especially to promote the Equity Exchange of St. Paul. He was one that tilled the soil for the victories of Townley, Wood, Brinton and the rest. He differs little from these men and the kind of campaign Preus faces is the tame that North Dakotans have been struggling against for | the past six years. | The forces of sane, orderly government in North Dakot» wish Gov. Preus success in his campaign. He is a 1) vigorous man and one who will be heard from if he is fortu-! nate to stem the tides of radicalism in Minnesota. FACT VER UTOPIANISM Chief Justice Taft in an opinion supported by a majority of the court has held that the much discussed Industrial Court statute of Kansas violates the freedom of contract | and of labor. ~ This merely reaffirms many of the points} taken in a previous opinion holding the minimum wage law} for the District of Columbia as unconstitutional. This from the pen of the Chief Justice should bring some relief to the tired business man wrestling with walking dele- gates, wage scales and agreements. “To say that a business is clothed with the public interest | is not to import that the public may take over its entire | Fifth Ave. Bldg. | {ubout a hundred des: | men are out of Luck, -. 7.20] | management and run it at the expense of the owner. The} extent to which regulation may reasonably go varies with | different kinds cf business. The regulation of rates to avoid} monopoly is one thing. The regulation of wages is another. A business may be of such a character that only the first | is‘permissible, while another may involve such a possible ; danger of monopoly on the one hand and h disaster from | stoppage on the other that both come within the public con- | cern and power of regulation.” i ~ Many attempts of the state to protect labor has been | ther bell before he could finish. “1 | galling to labor also.

The recent decision in the Charles Wolf Packing company | case is refreshing both to capital and labor. In 1921 this| company was ordered by the supreme court of Kansas to.) obey an order of the Industrial Court fixing wages, hours and | conditions of labor. The company resisted on the ground , that the order deprived them of their property without due process of law. It also held that the order diminshed the! operating expenses of the company “against its will, notwith- standing the income of the company ‘was and js sufficient to| pay the costs of raw material and operating expenses, in- | cluding wages to employes affected by such order.” | f JOB FOR THE BOY Summer work for the student often bridges for him the that stands between him and an education.

Cupid’s Stock Exchange Is Booming In Germany Berlin, June 20. Fewer babies are being born in Germany now than before the war and fewer peo- ple are dying, but the marriage license clerks are doing more busi- ness than during 1913. The Ger- is say there is a boom in the iage markgt “after every war.” The state of Hamburg lived up name of having the most at- ve “frauleins” in the republic. It chalked up a wedding record of about 15 to every 1,000 inhabitants. Schaumburg-Lippe ,a little to the uth of Hamburg and in romantic proximity to Steinhuder Lake, ran a close second with 14 to every 1,- to i slightly over 13, while Berlin city's was only 12. The most timid bachelors in all Germany ap- pear to live in the mountainous state of Waldeck, in the Weser ba- in, where there have been only about seven weddings to every 1,000 residents. And yet the Wal- deck boys have not such faint hearts as before, the war, when their average was only 5.4. The statistics for Wuerttemburg, Mecklenburg-Schwerin, and Meck- lenburg-Streltiz have not yet been received at offical headquarters her not including these three states, German’s marriage rate the pest year was 10.9 for every 1,000 inhabitants, compared with only 6.6 in 1913. ported at the rate of 23 for every 1,000, as against a proportion of 28.9 before the war. Most of the rths were registered in Upper Silesia and the least in Berlin. The former’g proportion was ap- proximately 32, the latter’s less than 12, Germans have been dying at the rate of 12.5 out of each 1,000 the past 12 months, while in 1913 death was taking a proportionate toll of about 15.

He went straight to his hotel and, as soon as he could sufficiently control himself to do so, he tele- phoned G Briskow, telling that he intended to leave town Then he began mechanically to pack his bag. He moved like a man in trance, for the blow had fallen so suddenly as to numb’ h his only impulse wag to escape, to hide him- self from these people who, of a sudden, had become hateful. When night came he took his bag and slunk out of the hetel, for it seemed that men must surely know what a fool he had made of himself. It would have been a relief to feel that he was leaving never to return; but even that was denied him, for, after his first panic, the truth had come home. He could! not run away. He thought of Ma Briskow, final- ly. She was human: she had a \heart, He bought a ticket to Dallas, Ma Briskow’s eyes were dim: | cevertheless, she saw the change in |Calvin Gray when, iate the foliow- ing afternoon, he came to sce her. “Land sakes!” she exclaimed, in a shocked voice. “Pa never said you {was ailin’. Why, Mr. Gray!” "m not really ill,” he told her, wearily, “just old. I've had a bad night.” Seating himself be:ide her couch, he took her hand in his and made her tell him all about herself. He had brought her an armful of flowers, as usual, and: extravagant \gifts for her adornment—giving, it seemed, wa; his unconscious habit. Whtle she admired them with ec- , static “Ohs!” and “Ahs!” he busied {himself with bowls and vases, but Ma noted his fumbling uncertainty of touch and evident cffort with which he kept up his agsumption of good cheer. She told him, finally: “Something mighty bad has hap- pened to you, Mr. Gray.” He gazed at her mutely, then nod- ded. “Is it something about the—the Princess of Wichita Falls?” “Yes, Ma.” * There was a long silence, then Ma inquired: “Would you like to tell me something about the little prin- cess? Sometimes it helps, to talk.” | “N—not yet.” “Won't you stay an’ have supper with Allie an’ me? We're awful jlonesome with Pa gone. Allie’s out som’er’s, but—it would do me good to know you was here an’ it'll do you good-'to stay. You can rest. yourself while I take my nap.” Ma Briskow did not wish to take a nap, but she:knew that Gray need- ed the solace. of his own thoughts just now, so, when he agreed. she sent him downstairs. Gray’s brain, like his body, had grown tired and feverish, To be sure, little more than a day had gone by since he had sallied forth like a knight, but it seemed a year, an age, and every hour brought a new and keener distress. He found it possible now, for the first time,| wayd aw a full breath for two| § to relax a bit ph so he clos- ed eyes and day back’ in an easy while the twilight stole in upon him.

The room. had grown agreeably — dark, was suddenly illuminated, and he lugehed to his feet to find the girl facing, him from the door. She was neither startled por surprised at Ifts presence, and when he tried to smile and to greet her in his accustomed manner, she interrupted him by ing: “I knew you were here. 0?
