P. Lenhart campaign com- mittee to brand certain candidates are childish. Harry Thompson has lived here forty years and served two terms on the city commission and has a perfect right to run for office. The insinuation implied in all the opposition’s ad- vertising that these candidates bear anyone’s label shows the lack of defense Lenhart’s managers have for the kind of city administration he has been responsible for. Jack Runyan has resided in Bismarck for five years. He is a popular young businessman and a good citizen and certainly has a perfect right to run for office without being assailed as the candidate of a certain clique. He has as men right to present himself for office as has his oppon- ents. a 1 Alex Rosen has been in Bismarck for seventeen years. | His reputation for honesty and square dealing are well known. He is a successful businessman and if he is willing to aid the city and put into effect business method: tem, “forts should not be met with the sneer: “Oh you are so and so’s candidate.” This silly piffle won’t answer the hard cold facts which this paper has been presenting for the last three or four months, regarding city affairs, long before a campaign was in sight or candidates were even known. ‘he Tribune has no candidates. It is not seeking to dic- . tate the votes of its readers. It-is presenting facts from the city records compiled by ‘one of its own editorial writers. It stands back of every , statement and is shifting the burden upon no one’s shoulders. That day has gone when newspapers seek to dictate the votes or politics of an electorate. If after a study of all the facts presented, the voters want a continuation of high taxes and loose business methods at the city hall that is their privilege. They will get the kind of government they want in any event and this newspaper will have no quarrel with them. For city employes under the guise of a corporation to sell the city supplies directly or indirectly is unethical and has been held by courts all over the land as against public #— policy. To keep slovenly payrolls in vest pockets and to assign to every Tom, Dick and Harry on the city payroll the duty of purchasing and disbursing officer is a serious matter as it affects city efficiency and economy. small fraction of what they should pay and shift the bur- den upon the poor or the property owner who has no friends at court is a despicable piece of business and a most unsound policy for a city administration. i Personalities and political piffle cannot gioss over these issues. If the voters want to protect their future interests they will all vote taxes downward not upward, Tuesday, April 7. Every wage earner, every property owner not in the circle of the city gang could well take one day off and see to it that the lower tax ticket wins at the polls. He will save in decreased taxes many times the few hours he loses from business. COOLIDGE MUST ASSERT HIMSELF If leadership is to survive in America, it is imperative that President Coolidge assert himself. It is unfortunate that the first clash came on a personal issue on which the obstructionists could find plausible “talk- ing points.’ The real issue will come on more impersonal matters of public leadership, like the world court. If there is to be a coherent, constructive policy, the pres- ident alone is equipped to \take the initiative in it. He has such a policy. It will take the fighting spirit to get it adopted. The Senate has become potent only for obstruction. The House is capable of disciplined action, but not of thought. Only the president can pioneer the way forward. And he can only do that when he has fought the Senate into un- willing co-operation. NOVEL The best way to eliminate grade crossing accidents, oi course, is to eliminate the grade crossings themselves by elevating or tunneling the railroad tracks. Railroads object to this, on the ground that the cost is prohibitive. But now a new device is being tried, one so * simple that you wonder it hadn’t been thought of before. An “island” is placed in the road approaching the tracks, creating a sharp curve that brings the motorist down to a slow rate of speed. Thus, when he reaches the tracks; he can stop short if need be. 3 / One of these “islands” is now in use in Cottondale, Fla. It will be watched carefully for results. It may be that this Phe pierced where crossing gates and safety campaigns have failed. SHORTAGE Housing shortage of the United States generally is said , to have been overcome, ‘but in New York the city housing famine grows steadily worse. According to a report submitted to the New York Legis: lature by Governor Smith, there is no immediate relief in sight. What construction is under way brings to the class of people most seriously affected no benefits whatever. ; Establishment of public credits has been suggested as the best solution—something that would bring interest charges down to 6 per cent.

But we could very cheerfully and enthusiastic- ally take part in a movement which was cesigned to enlist hon- est and intelligent leadership and, ; to promote sound economics and good government. Whenever the ‘people are promised more than that it would be well for them to “Stop — Lock — Listen.” Beware of ‘buncombe! ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON THE HURDY GURDY MAN ‘Where are we going now?” asked | N The March Hare considered a min- ute, “I'm not sure,” he said, “wheth- er it is more important to get the Man started, and Jocko, his monkey, or to get after the Ice-Cream-Cone Man. Spring doesn't start, really, until both of them are out.” “Oh, let’s hunt up the Hurdy Gurdy' Man first, cried Nancy. “Very well,” said the March Hare. “The Hurdy ‘Gurdy Man it is.” So the Twins got on the March Hare's willing back and away he went like the wind. They passed the jolly Rag Man driving his old horse slowly along and singing loudly through his nose, “Ra-a-ags! Old iron! Rubber—bottles —paper—and shoes! Ra-a-ags! Old iron!” 2 He waved at them as they passed. Next they passed the Scissor Grinder with his grindstone strapped to his back, “Scissors to grind!” he kept calling. But people were so busy opening their doors and rushing out to get their dull scissors and knives sharp- ened, that he never even saw the three: travelers speeding on their way. . ‘They passed the Umbrella Mender next. “It's a good thing he’s getting about his business!” remarked the hare. “It is certainly clouding up to rain.” And then they came to the Hurdy Gurdy Man's house. “Come in,” said he when they knocked. . “Howa da do!” he grinned, “You must exa-cuse, I giva Jocko da bath!” Sure enough he was scrubbing his monkey, and dear: knows, I'm sure he needed it—the monkey did. There lay his little bright red coat and cap all ready to put on. And even-a bran new tin cup was waiting to be filled with pennies. “Tomorra I go out and play da ‘Bambalina’ and ‘No Bananas,’ said the Hurdy Gurdy Man, “I maka da kids dance and sing.” The March Hare looked worried. “It deems to me, Mister Hurdy Gur- dy Man,” said he, ‘that there are newer tunes this year. A Hurdy Gurdy Man must be up to date. You'll have to learn ‘Follow _ the Swallow’ and ‘Tea for Two’ and ‘The Indian Love Call’ and a lot of oth- ors”. “You donta_ say, Hurdy Gurdy Man | “Da day afa-ter tomorra I start then.

It automatically re- tains ten cents from a deposit Of a quarter or a fifty-cent piece, returning the correct change and, at the same time, releasing the catch on the turn- stile to permit entrance to the trains. Dimes—the regular fare—also are ac- cepted, but the machine will not handle paper money, pennies or nickels, It is believed that the device will be of aid in rush hours as pas- engere with the exact fare, or coins vhich the contrivance will change, can ass through quickly. aes Wheelbarrow Bench for Lawn Is Easily Moved Benches for the lawn or garden are useful and ornamental but cannot be moved easily from place to place as needed. This limitation has been overcome in a seat which an English- ith Handles at One End ‘Wheel at the Other, T jecorative Bench for Lawn or Ga.den Is Easily Moved About woman has invented. It combines the features of 9 bench and a wheelbarrow and may be trundled about as easily as the latter article by means of two long extension handles and a wheel at the other end which forms part of the support. ee @{A non-magnetic cast iron is being produced by a concern in England. there isn’t half a chance for another.

But thats the way of the world and it's good for our brains. “There's one tune I hope he woa't play this year,” added the hare. “What?? asked the Twins togeth- ister Gallagher,” sighed the March Hare wearily.

Acid-Proof Table Top For chemical laboratories, battery- service stations, and other places «here acids are handled, an acid-proof coating on the table tops is almost a necessity. The following two solu- tions are used for this purpose. The first. consists of iron sulphate, 4 parts; copper sulphate, 4 parts; potassium permanganate, 8 parts, and water 100 parts. The second solution consists of anilin, 12 parts; hydrochloric acid, 18 parts; water, 100 parts. Two coats of the first solution are applied hot with a bmsh and allowed to dry; any dried coating that has not, soaked in is then rubbed off. The sur- face is then given two coats of the second solution and later a thin coat of raw linseed oil is rubbed on with a cloth. If the table top is painted or varnished, it should be scraped down so that the solutions will penetrate the wood. In cases where this method was used on some old laboratory tables the result was highly satisfac- tory. The surface turns ebony-black a few hours after the coating has been The Tangle : LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT, CONTINUED Probably as you read this, John, you are wondering why I, your fe, at a crucial moment in our ives like this, should go into this long dissertation on the modern marriage. It is because I want to let you in upon the ways and means by which I am trying to reason this thing out. It is because after this I want to make certain that there shall be no misunderstandings. It is because I am trying like you to be honest with both you and myself. In my case, however, there is no question of the “meal ticket.” 1 know that I worry about money for myself or my children if I should put you out of my life, but as usual in affairs of this kind there are always other people to be taken into con- sideration. / know, as you intimated, that your leaving the management of the steel mill at this time would make my mother very unhappy. She would feel it her duty to come home if she were told about this sorry mix-up, and besides, I shall have to confess, John, I myself am most sensitive to the speech of people. I would not care to go out among my friends if I knew that after I left the room they were wondering just what f was going to do. I can not bear, John, to let the world know that my matrimonial shif has gone on the rocks. We have, it is true, steered away from many of them—some of them which I thought would surely be our de- struction, but now it scems to be would never have to! Electric Lighter for Water eater Many houses have a gas water heater in the basement for summer use. To light it it is necessary to go downstairs and this is rather unhandy, With the apparatus shown in the il- lustration, it is possible to turn on the gas and ignite it with an clectric sy The valve in the gas line is provided with a coil spring, which shuts off the gas automatically. It is opened by means of a length of furnace chain, wound on a spool that is attached to the valve as indicated. The chain is run over pulleys, through the wall into the room above, the end being fiteed with a ring; a plate on the wall holds the chain up in the same manner as a furnace-damper control. These fixtures can be purchased at any hard- ware store. Two dry cells are con- nected in series to a Ford ignition coil, which can be obtained at a garage.

She insists ‘that marriage itself, with or without love, with or without trust, is nothing but a series of compromises. She quoted to me that old stanza of Cowper.

Rowell The violent ups and downs of wheat are a reminder that money used to do the same thing. If money does so no more, it is by reason of precautions which ought to be possible in the case of wheat also. For wheat is almost as current a standard of world values as gold. Money got “loose” and “tight” by turns, and credit begot credit, until booms exploded and periodic panics fol- lowed. Then the federal reserve system in America and cen- \tralized banking systems elsewhere were provided as reser- voirs against real fluctuations and information against im- aginary one. We still have financial ups and downs, but, so far, they step short of the breaking point. * Some steps, at least, on the information side, ought to ibe possible to keep the fluctuations of wheat within the facts. Now, if the real conditions justify a change of 20 per cent, we are likely to have changes of 100 ‘per cent, first one [way and then the other. It is not really civilized business. Ludendorff threatens to run for president of Germany. Fortunately, this is the one office for which his candidacy can do no harm. He can get the nomination of his party, of course, or, failing that, start another and nominate him- self. But, for president, one is either elected or beaten.
