The Davis candidacy collapsed weeks ago, and the LaFoll- ette candidacy has been dealt serious blows within the last veek. It is either Calvin Coolidge or no election at all —a ceadlock in the national Congress. It is to be hoped that when the ballots are counted, North Dakota will not be found with Wisconsin in the La- lo'lette column. It is to be hoped that the rest of the coun- try will not be able to point a finger at North Dakota and label her radical and out of harmony with the rest of the nation. A victory for Calvin Coolidge in the state next Tuesday would he victory for North Dakota. It would prove to the eitire nation that North Dakota is not a land of seething discontent, It would prove that North Dakota is opposed to destruction in governmental affairs. Calvin Coolidge has made a good president. He has anpointed Officials of highest calibre to office. He has pun- ished wrong-doing. He has fought for economy and sanity in the conduct of the nation’s business. He has lent his forts to a solution of the agricultural problem of the .na- ti not by quack or make-shift methods, but on a broad piane. which would insure permanent benefit to the nation. The foreign policy of the government has won the respect of all ations. The administration has made progress to- ward colléeting the debt Europe owes us through the Dawes plin and other methods. At the same time much has been done to ameliorate European conditions. It is reasonable to assume that prosperity will follow a continuation of the present government in power, with Europe's troubles being lightened each day. It is just as reasonable to assume that should a deadlocked election re- sult, the uncertainty of the future would have a depressing ies upon business, and unemployment and want would ollow. HELD IN TRUST The busine«s-monopoly trust isn’t as great an economic Menace as the trust fund by which the estates of the very rich are perpetuated. “Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations’”—the dissipation of big fortunes by heirs, back to the people. whose toil created the wealth—no longer is the rule. Crafty lawyers and bankers have shown the rich how to put their estates in trust so the income but not the principal ean be touched. No line of kings ever sat as securely on the throne as these dollars held in trust, increasingly laying more golden eggs. WOLF Canada pays a bounty of $20 a head on woolves, which destroy caribou and other game needed for food by Indians and settlers. It’s harder to get within shooting distance of a northern wolf than any other animal. Hunters can make more going after other pelts. So in nine years the $20 bounty has brought very small results. Now the government tries out a wolf-hunting expedition. The resulting pelts sold in the fur market, pay all expenses of the venture and, to boot, a net profit of over $1000 a hunter. For results, organization. TELLING RESULTS Tankers express worry because it’s estimated that 400 million dollars are hidden away behind the clock and similar places by hoarders who do not trust banks. This money should be working and earning more for its owners, inciden- tally creating jobs. 2ut for every $1 hoarded, $46 are banked as savings de- posits. Behold, here, the result of educational campaigns conducted by bank advertising in newspapers. Hoarding and fear of banks were common a generation ago. Now they are exceptional. NDIANS ON INCREASE One Indian in every five, on reservations in our country. has tuberculosis or trachoma, a medical association learns. Nevertheless, the full-blooded Indian population is in- creasing steadily. Disease doesn’t matter as much as the power of resistance—the body’s ability to fight and hold in eheck invading germs. The Indians, attacked by diseases by the white man, are more than holding their own because they live in the healthful outdoors. Confine them in cities and one generation would virtually wipe them out. Health is out in the fresh air and quiet. BUILDING RECORD _... This year will close with 600 million dollars’ worth of new lings erected in the United States, predict officials ot -S. W. Straus & Co., able authorities. The figure for 1923 was about the same. Twelve million dollars’ worth of construction in two years is a lot. The # housing shortage is not yet eliminated, but a big hole has ~gbeen made in it, Which brings the public closer to lower ren Maybe if we can hang on 50 or 75 years, rents will ,be back to normal. SILK STOCKINGS It is just about four centuries since the world’s first silk ttockings were worn at a wedding by King Henry II. of #¥yance. He was the envy of all his subjects. ‘ Today any one can afford silk stockings. Machinery and Si nodern systematized industry have made them available “at a cheap price.

They are presented here in order that our readers may have both sides of important issues which are being discussed in the press of the day. “DANGEROUS POWER OF CON- GRESS UNDER CHILD LABOR AMENDMEN1” | (New Haven Journal-Courier.) No more heartening thing has hap-! pened in| many yeurs in the state of! Connecticut than the widespread in- | terest thut is being taken in the pro- posed amendment to the federal Con- stitution forbidding the employment of “persons” in productive labor un- der 18 years of age. Men and wo- men unaccustomed to public debate | are ent i the columns of the newspapers with their laws well mur- shaled und presented, | Charles L. veteran Hart- ford edugator who is a school prin- cipal in that city member of | the state board of ion, presents arguments in opposition to the] amendment which deserves attention and we hope will provoke an even more general consid ion of the proposal, The following paragrapn | ought to make the advocates of the enterprise stop and think: “The proposed amendment, once atified by three-fourths of thej states, would give Congress the pow- er to transfer tens of thousands of persons, sixteen or seventeen years of age, from the ranks of producers into the ranks of mere consumers. Such u step would result in an eco- nomic loss to the state in its indus- trial and commercial enterprises, and would affect most s kindly thousands of — people straitened circumstances who rea need financial assistance from their | older children. Any person seven-! teen years old has the right to be al producer, in case he desires to be one. He is no longer y child, He has passed his adolescent period, and is now a man. Why deprive him of | the rights of a man—the right to as- | s parents on the farm, in the; z y, or in the store—the right to} become self-supporting at an y uge—the right to enter upon some chosen vocation even at seventeen years of age, as thousands of othe done? This amendment cur- ’s freedom of action, | seems both arbitrary and autocratic, | and, for that reason, ought not to be ratified by a free people.” The more this subject is consider- | ed, the more we are sure that the/| state of Connecticut will refuse to} it, not alone because it has a} its own fully equal to the re-| quirements of such legislation, but | because in addition it should be con-! sistent in its opposition to the grow- | ing practice of the federal govern-; ment to assume rights and powe| which cun be better and more wisely enforced and protected by the states. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON | riously and un- in When the King of Yum Yum Land got the magic, fork and the magic teapot, he tucked them under his arm and said to his subjects: “Good-bye, my good people.

My good peddler friend who gave me this magic teapot and fork is going to be king in my place. I am*going to live in my hunting lodge in the forest.” With that he strode three strides to the door and was gone, fork, tea- pot and all, No sooner had he gone than the peddler came out of his hiding place and strode three strides up to the throne and sat down. “I'm king, new,” said he. down and bumip.your heads.” So the subjects ‘MI_knelt down and bumped their heads, althut the cook, who felt very badly over the way he had been treated, and sneaked ‘out of ua side door. ~ Then he went back to his kitchen and sulked, for he felt that he should at least be Lord.High Care- “Fall | | industri THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE Tacking on a Few More Feathers WE'LL MAKE A BIRD OF TAS OL?

Off in the forest the king reached his hunting lodge.
