THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) (Official City, State and County: Newspaper) GOVERNMENT BY PARTIES While realizing their imperfections, President Coolidge in his inaugural address came out emphatically for the continuance of the party system. He holds that it is funda- mentally sound. He holds that a party label if we are to have a responsible government must be something more than ‘“‘a mere device for securing office.” It is vital that those who are elected as republicans or democrats support the principles for which those parties stand. Primary laws, fusion arrangements and other poli- tical subterfuges have been subversive of party rule in state affairs. If lasting progress is to be made and leadership developed in this state, it must be through adherence to established parti The kind of leadership the nation has in Calvin Coolidge is strictly a development of the party system. Congress which has just adjourned ignored party regularity and was controlled by blocs whose policies were rebuked at the No- vember election. Its failure to represent the people is now history. “Common honesty and good faith with the people who support a party at the polls require that party when it enters office to assume the control of that portion of the government to which it has been elected,” is the conclusion of President Coolidge in the matter of party obligations. President Coolidge is right when he says that this ad- ministration has come into power with a clear and definite mandate from the people. The nation has voted in favor of upholding the constitutional. guarantee, the integrity of the courts and against public ownership of railroads and certain other utilities. To flout: party rule, President Coolidge firmly says “is bad faith and a violation of the party pledges.” North Dakota if it is ever to get back to solid ground politically must do so through party organization. Fusion arrangements have broken down party solidarity in this state and let down the bars for many freaks of legislation. With the great republican victory of last November to in- spire them, republicans of this state should be able to meet on common ground and in defense of the principles which won so splendidly under the leadership of President Cool- idge. Nothing can be gained through fusion or vague and veiled references to the supposed socialistic trend in state affairs. President Coolidge’s inaugural speech should form an excellent political creed for republicans of this state. Merely waving the red flag and revamping the old slogans and dusting off the same old compromising platforms w: make the division greater and the political strife more bitter. The time has come for the disappointed office holders to forget the old I. V. A. political abortion, step back into the ranks where they belong and let a majority of the re- publicans of the state decide upon new issues and new Jeaders. Itch for office and political provender have ever been the chief characteristics of the old I. V. A. fusion party. That leadership is stale and inadequate for the present emergency. The republicans want a more virile and inspir- ing leadership than is represented by the badly battered 1. V. A. remnants. NEXT WAR Germs are discounted as the weapon of our next great war by Dr. William H. Park, chief bacteriologist of New York’s Department of Health. Annihilation of millions by disease germs might sound simple to the layman but Dr. Park thinks execution of such a plan would be very difficult. For one thing, he points out, | healthy persons are continuously resisting disease attacks and many adults are immune. For another, there would be quite a problem to scatter them. If by explosive bombs, the heat of the explosion would make them sterile. If released from airplanes, much time would elapse before they reached the earth, and the air and sunlight very likely would make them inert. Then, too, an enemy would have to prepare himsel against whatever bacteria he planned to use. All his forces would have to be immunized. It might even be that an entirely new disease would have to be discovered, such is the resistance we have built up against most of the known ills. ANOTHER USE ius Heljum, the non-inflammable gas used in some dirigibles, -is to be put to another use. Department of Interior has ex- perimented with it in diving and tunneling activities. Helium when mixed with oxygen forms a breathable at- mosphere similar to normal air. Tests show, too, that the use of helio-oxygen mixtures reduces the time of decom- pression, the process by which miners and compressed air workers are restored to normal air conditions. : : Compressed air illness, sometimes called “caisson dis- ease,” is widespread among tunnel workers and divers and makes their job a particularly hazardous one. Use of helium promises to eliminate it. z AIR TRAVEL The trip of the giant dirigible, ‘Los Angeles, to Bermuda Editorial Review _ Comments reproduced in wis column may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune, hy 4re presented here In order that our readers Hes have both sides of important Issues which sre eal discussed ip the press the day. ee | REAL RELIGION | Evening Gazette) Key Nebr ig a small| town, little more than a hamlet.

During ithe winter months it turns out a \million small fish tq stock lakes and |rivers for devotees of rod and tackle. The government bureau of fish- eries sends the eggs from their fish jfarms in Virginia, Michigan, Ver- ‘mont and Yellowstone Park. They are mostly of selmon, trout, white- fish and perch and hatch out from \four days to two weeks after arrival jat the Aquarium. Time of hatching depends on temperature of the water, 50 days being required at 50 degrees, but each degree over that decreases the hatching time by five days. At 60 degrees the eggs hatch almost in- stantancously. The small fish, or fry, are kept in tanks according to size until they are ready for shipment to lakes and rivers. Size of fish eggs seems to be in inverse proportion to the size of the fish. A cod weighing 70 pounds will lay 330,000 eggs to a quart, while the eggs of a small brown trout will be so large that a quart will hold only 6000. And while we're about these statis- ties, you might be interested in knowing that a codfish lays nine mil- lion eggs at a time, but the baby codfish are no larger than those of a goldfish, Reading what I have just written a bright friend arises to remark that if fish eggs become fish fry instan- taneously at 60 degrees, fish fry would probably become fried fish at 70 degrees. He also accuses me of nature-faking. In truth, I know nothing about fish eggs except what an apparently truthful and honest attendant at the Aquarium told me.

I'll look | wonderful at Mrs. Bunny’s birthday party tonight. That reminds. me, I must write my greetings on a birthday card to put in with my bot- tle of perfume. I'd better do it now before I forget.” She unlocked the door and went in again and sat down and wrote this on a card with forget-me-nots at the top: “Years help to make us wise and gift from me to you.” she said. “That’s nest.” Then she went out. But scarcely had she left her flat than it began to blow—the wind did, not the flat, and oh dear, what—j what—do you suppose happened! The lovely. blue shawl with the red roses on it blew off the porch and straight down to Mrs. Bunny’s door- step where it lay in a little heap right against her front door. But the wind blew something else, too! It blew the forget-me-not card out of the window, and the card set- tled down right on top of the shaw) and stayed there. There lay the shawl and there lay the card saying, “Accept this itt from me to you. Mrs. Samantha Cracknuts.” Mrs. Bunny. went out for the mail as Mister Stridealong, the postman, knocked, and it was the first thing she saw. “My dear!” she gasped. “My dear! To think that that lovely Mrs. Cracknuts heard me say I wanted a blue shawl with red roses on it. Just to think! When I spoke so loudly the other day I meant it for Ben. But I must have said the words more loudly than I thought for my neigh- bor surely heard everything.” Imagine Mrs. Cracknuts’ surprise when Mrs. Bunny came over and thanked her for the shawl and card. What could she say? Not a word! All she could say was, “You're wel- come. I’m very glad you like it.” She was pretty smart, Mrs. Crack- nuts was, and she suspected that the wind had done it. Besides it was a good joke on her. But you always get back what you give. Mrs. Buriny said, “I know where there is a great stack of nuts, Mrs. Cracknuts. If your husband goes with Ben tomorrow, he'll show him.” And do you know, the squirrel family had enough nuts to last them fot a year and a half. Which shows that it is always far more blessed to give than to receive. Even if you don’t mean it.

Rowell In spite of the decision of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission that the surcharge on Pullman fares is reasonable, the Senate votes to forbid them. The difference is, of course, that the commission consid- ers the whole question and the Senate only part of it. The commission realizes that if the railroads are cut out jof revenue from one source they must get it from another, or else give less service. : Or, when the time comes that they can do with less revenue, the question must be considered which rates can | most usefully be cut. ; ‘The commission thinks the first relief ought not to be {to the most prosperous and luxurious travelers. The Senate merely knows that this rate is unpopular, and, taken by itself, unfair. So it abolishes it, without considering the related ques-* tions at all. Which illustrates, chiefly, that the less politics the more sense. j a “American drama is a failure,” says a European critic. a “America is so far ahead of Europe, with respect to the theater, that it is futile even to strike a balance,” says an American producer, just returned from Europe. The European deprecates the inartistic unseriousness of American plays and the superficiality of American audi- ences. The American criticizes the over-seriousness of Eurepean audiences, the scenery, and the frequent foisting of under- studies in the acting. ‘ Of course, both are right. American theaters are below standard in the things Europe demands, and European thea- ters in the things America demands. For that matter, rent a high-class European house. It will have ancestral pictures, rare old furniture and a fine dignity, but bad plumbing and worse heating. The same class of American house will have seven “mod- ern” bathrooms, central heating, perfect lighting, crude, new furniture, and pictures bought over night. The new nation values the new, and the old takes pride in the old. Why should either look down on the other? and. éxpressions are “right” and others “wrong”, and that it is the business of dictionaries and, gram- © mars to lay down the law for them.

UNSCIENTIFIC STANDARD The French Academy has just ad- mitted two new words to the diction- ary, and rejected several others. It is a strange, unscientific stand- ard, of which French Academicians and American schop] marms have the monopoly, ‘j That is the notion that some words “Of course T love you, dear Jack, I am afraid to tell you how much.

They record the good, the bad and the indifferent,, merely stating the facts as to actual usage. Scientific grammars do the same. But not school grammers. They are still lawgivers of “right” in a matter where there is no right or wrong, but only usage.
