Devine sioner calls back into public service a man well fitted to the offices Governor Nestos has made a wise choice and one that was most generally endorsed by the business and agri- interests of the We r. Devine since he first entered the s ate has made a udy of its needs. He has delivered thousands of sses upon its resources and opportunities. But in: dition to being an educator, and a former governor, he is soa dirt farmer. For years in the vicinity of Minot he} conducted farming operatio Hie made many experiments | in dry farming and since the pioneers’ days h cen a strong advocate of diversification. A speaker of note, he will be able to carry North Dakota’s message to the crowded sections of the east where tenants are laboring for a mere pittance. Gov. De outlined | ina general way his pol which of cour aturally be curtailed because of the small funds a Ti as he plans, he can inter the various cities and counties to send exhibits to the e n other words coor- dinate the expenditur f the varicus countics in immigra tion work in one well defined and coherent plan, he will hav done well for his state. There is a spasmodic and aimless plan followed in various “booster” schemes. If Mr, Devine can organize th penditures and direct them into productive channels, success is assured. His acquaintance with the state and people in Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnescta and Mlinois should tell in the contest for new settlers. North Dakota needs more hands to bring her acres into greater production. Lignite mining is in its infancy and other resources need to be brought into active production which spells prosperity for North Dakota. e must able. BANKERS LEAVE A comforting spirit ef optimism was manifes bankers attending the state convention here. Bankers not usually optimistic less there is some foundation for such a feeling. With reports from the Missouri Slope stat- ing that the crops southwest of Bismarck in many localities are far ahead of las sar, and reports generally from the state indicating anything but a crop failure, the bankers may well feel confident of the future. The impressive address of Major Stanley Washburn, showing the potentialities of lignite to western North Dakota, ought to add to the store of confidence of those residing west of the James river. The resolutions adopted by the bankers indicated a de- sire not to issue preachments nor to disturb a patient that appears to be recovering. People generally do not approve of branch banking, but would rather see independent institu- tiens of strength and character built in North Dakota. They are not in any mood to see the flow of harvest labor inter- rupted by destructionists. That the cause of some bank closings in the state, or at least an underlying cause, is the fact that there are too many banks which cannot well be denied by ene who will give atten- tion to the situation. If three banks attempt to serve a community where one bank will suffice, and in their compe- tition accept greater risks than they should, or bid a higher rate of interest for deposits than is consistent with safety, and increase their overhead expenses to a burdensome point, it is certain that dire results will follow. Because a bank failure affects the community more than the bankers them- selves it is highly important that sound banking principles be observed in North Dakote Before leaving the visiting bankers paid a nice compli- ment to the city of Bismarck for the entertainment provided, and The Tribune is glad to add a word of appreciation to the Jocal bankers and others who so aided in maintaining the reputation of the city for generous hospitality. GoD Go to an old man for wisdom. Dr. Kaufmann Kohler, veteran rabbi and Hebrew educator, looks us over at the age of 80. He believes that, among the masses, idealism has given way to materialism and opportunism. “There has been a decrease in religious fervor. The masses have little religion. The fear of God has gone, and with it a belief in a hereafter.- We must all believe in a Divine Providence which leads the human race forward. History is not always a straightforward progress, but often goes in zigzag lines. We must have patience.” Most of our troubles right ‘now are spiritual. FATHER An interesting father is discovered in Boston. He has never earned more than $12 a week. On this small wage he and his hard working wife have raised and educated nine children. Father can sit back on his oars now, for all nine are working and their combineg incomes total $360 a week. ~ This doesn’t put them in the millionaire class, not by a long shot. But if ever a man made a real success of life, it’s this Boston father. There are millions like him—hard plug- gers denying themselves to give their children “a better chance.” ‘They are the backbone of America, though they never step down to the footlights to receive a bouquet. hone ‘ YANKEES ia Lloyd George is expected to visit the United States next -October.
