There ure many rocks and ugly barriers in the way of the federal machine which astute politicians will find need their best talent in the art of fence fixing and harmony promoting. Party action has broken down in these states under the pressure of local issues more pressing than even the election of a president or a United States senator. Nebraska as well as North Dakota has furnished some startling examples cf the bizarre in political gymnastics. Through a working agreement with the nonpartisan league Charlie Bryan, .a demccrat, was elected governor while Hitchcock went down to defeat before a republican candidate for United States senator whose attitude on national issues squared with the liberal and somewhat near-socialistic ideas of Brother Charlie.’ Minnesota accepted Magnus Johnson with the Farmer- Labor label.” Republican party traditions seemed to count little with the embattled farmer who saw all their woes, all ba Hopes and aspirations typified in this hardy son of the Ww. _ Over in Iowa, Brookhart won as a republican, but with the same appeal as that made under the banner of the Farmer-Labor party in Minnesota. ==Here in North Dakota, Lynn J. Frazier won on a plat- form similiar to that sponsored by the Farmer-Labor party of Minnesota, a party that has legal entity in that state. but Frazier still retains the republican label and with Ladd receives republican recognition in federal patronage and doubtless will enter republican caucuses at Washington as does Senator Ladd. =. As in Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska, so in North Dakota there is a considerable number of republicans who have no| time for the political “isms” of Frazier or Ladd. They refuse to recognize them as republicans and we have in this state another republican organization which seeks recog- nition over the one selected through the operation of law. : Chairman Adams and the national committeemen of these states have a herculean task in North Dakota as well -in the neighboring states to force republicans to “get together” as admonished by President Coolidge. State igsues impinge too closely upon national contests. Many North Dakota republicans refused to support the nomine: oftheir party for United States senator at the last election declaring that he was not in fact a republican and they pre- igfred rather to support openly a democrat as the only honest alternative. =Harmonizing republican ranks in view of the shattered condition of party allegiance is going to be a real job. Nor is-all the trouble in republican ranks. Many democrats have cast party allegiance aside to chastize cliques whose theory of government did not square with their ideals. The non- partisan scheme of battle as propounded by Townley for his weeram has, been effectively combatted by nonpartisan action on the part of the opponents of his political vagaries. Aw the result party feeling and fealty have been so shattered that the next campaign presents a most interesting enigma. _ CANYON DIABLO At some unknown time in the past, the largest meteor that ever struck the earth fell in Coconino county, Arizona.

Out in the country the same move- ment is being expressed by efforts to | establish state parks to preserve and to mark places of historical interest. The good roads prograr: oF our states is part of the plan. In North Da- kota more than a dozen sites and parks have been preserved through the efforts of a few interested citi- zens. | Miss Bertha Pal..er of Bismarck is doing good work in this movement to bring the development in the coun- try up with the progress which is being made in the city. Her inter- est in art in North Dakota and in the move to keep for future North | Dakotans the inspiration of country parks and of romantic and historica: spots is praiseworthy sentiment. Few states can point to rich tra-' iditions and history equal to those of North Dakota. Not many outsiders e taken the trouble to find the spots of natural beauty and of his- torical intcrest in this state. As the grind old men of the st«te pass away, and as plant and. animal life of the state is crowded aside by the devel- | opment of industry and agriculture, | a program for saving these spots is | as necessary as is city planning among municipal Good roads, roadside planting, | home and schoolground planting will be a part of the state's program as farming and other interests become more stable and permanent. His- ‘torical spots, natural life, and the \traditions of the state must be pre- | served now however, before the rush | of industrial development has oblit- \erated them, and before the pioneers best acquainted with the old days in ‘North Dakota are gonc. Every county in the state has good sites which its citizens can help to preserve for the inspiration and en- joyment of future North Dakotans. The movement merits encouragement and citizens like Miss Palmer are i doing a bit o work which will be appreciated as years go by.—Fargo Daily Tribune. THE TWINS By Olive Roberts Barton MISTER GALLOP, the one moonlight night: “It’s too early for bed so let’s go over and visit my Indian friend who, lives by him- self in a tepee near Snow Mountain.” “Oh, goody!” cried Nanoy, . clap- ping her overjoyed he couldn't think of any- thing but, “Oh, gee! Won't that be grand!” He wasn’t allowed to say “gee” at all! But he forgot. ‘As they were- riding on their ponies up the narrow mountain trail, Mister Gallop said: “The Indian’s name is Umpeetah and he used to be a medicine man. If he’s in a talkative mood he may tell us a story.” Umpeetah was sitting outside his; tepee smoking a pipe and enjoying the moonlight, He was in a very good humor -and said “Nice “Squaw!” and “Nice brave,” to the Twins and also said something in sign language to Mis- ter Gallop which the Twins couldn't understand. j | “Yes, [I'll have~ay pipe, thanks,” | answered Mister Gallop. \kinnikinic, if you please. I'll smoke |my own tobacco, Indian tobacco is too strong. There now! Every- ‘body’s all hunky dory, Umpeetah. Could'we have a story? These kid- dies are. perfect story hounds. I guess it’s up to you to play Sand- man.” Unpeetah understeod and smiled and nodded slowly, ~ “M! A story! I will tell you a story ‘bout something you see on the moon, What.is on the moon? What jo you see?” “A man’s face!” said Nick. “A lady's face!” said Nancy. | “Mountains!” suggested Gallop. : “Yes, but more,” nodded Umpee- {tah wisely. “Take: this magic glass and look. Now what do you see?” \ From his belt he took a small jpiece of dark glass shaped like a |watch crystal, and handed it | Nancy. Nancy yeached for it eagerly, and put it up to her eye. “Why, I see a rabbit,” she cried excitedly, “It looks as. though it ‘were jumping into a fire: Do look, | Nick, and gee if you don't notice it too i “Yes, it is a rabbit!” he declared. “I: tell: you, about him,” nodded Umpeetah, putting the glass safely. jaway. “And I will tell you why he jumps into the fire. That's my story.” (To Be Continued) (Copyright, 1923, NEA Service, Inc.) QUILL PENS ARE . ABOLISHED BY COURT.

I did not see her letters but from what Jack said about them I know he thought had been “rather catty.” Surely you know your son well enough to realize that he always is exasperated when anyone “butts in” us he says into a family affair. Even I would not presume to advise him a3 to his conduct toward you. Of course I understand that to you Miss Bradford is perhaps a dear and valued friend, but Jack probably felt she was ylmost a stranger to him, as she is an utter stranger to me. Please do not misunderstand me, dear “Jack’s mother,” because I am only trying to unravel the tangle, one of the little tangles in that big tangle which we call life.
