It is born of tho same spirit tlt launched the great Sesquicenten- | . nial at Philddelyfifa: There is not a community in the whole length and} breadth of this fair land that does not need a re- dedication to the prin- ciples of freedom, toler- ance and forbearance so admirably expressed by the founders of the Union in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and reiterated down through the years in the or- ganic-laws of the various states of the naticn. When this naticn was torn asunder by hatred, bigotry and narrow sectionalism, it was the calm voice of Abraham Lincoln that uttered these eel orable words: { { { “With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right—let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan; to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.” Therefore in the spirit of the great cmancipator let us examine the corner stone of Anterican liberty in the varicus historic documents of the nation and the :taic. Article three of the Articles of Confed- eratien adopted November 15, 1777, contained this guaranty: “The states hereby severally enter into a firm league of friendship with each ‘other for their common defense, the security -of their liberties, and their mutual and gen- eral welfare, binding themselves to assist each other, against all force offered to, or attacks made upon them, or any‘ of them, on accotnt of religion, sovereignty, trade or any other pretense whatever.” It is significant that the first amendment to the federal Constitution reads as follows: “Congress shall make no law respecting wn establishment of religion, or prohibit- ing the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press; ct the right of the people peacefully to as- semble, and to petition the governmnet for a redress of grievances.” The Enabling Act providing for the division of Dakota into two statexhas this guaranty: “First: That the perfect toleration of religicus sentiment shall be secured and that no inhabitant shall. éver be molested in person or property on account of his or her mode of religious worship.” When our great state, which every loyal citizen loves and esteems, was admitted tu the Union, October 1, 1889, the fathers that drafted the con- stitution wrote into Section 4, that great guaranty which is the corner stone of aif our liberties, the great fountainhead of our blessings: “The free exercise and enjoyment of re- ligous profession and worship, without dis- crimination or preference shall: be forever guarantced in this state; and no person shall be rendered incompetent to be a wit- ness or juror on account of his opinion on matters of religious belief; but the liberty of conscience hereby secufed shall’ not: be so construed as to“excuse acts of A ness or justify p¥acticés ihoonsistent with the peace or safety of his state.” Mogday there pealed forth under the halids of the chief executive of, this state clear tonéi‘of the The Man of the Hi Joseph Cafllaux, a Frenchman, was convicted dur- ihg the war of dealing with the German enemy.

Tt is out of crises like these that strong men enterge to power. France long has had its eyes on Italy—and Mussolini. What man in France is pow- crful enough to emulate the iron man of Rome? It is being whispered that that man is Caillaux. He has acceptéd the post of finance ister, but has let it bé known that he would be satisfied only with a job giving him full power. It may be that France is swinging teward a dic- tatorship. il The Dawes Plan The true test of any plan is whether or not it works. Thus the true test of the Dawes Repara- Mtions plan for Eurépe was conceded to be whether | or not it would work. So far it has. There have been times whey it seemed as if it would not, like the recent period of trade depression in Germany, yet, in the end, things ‘begin. to function smoothly again. Thus, by the fest of actual trial, the Dawés plan seems to be a proven succéss. Certainly it proved to be the turning point in the rehabilitation of Burope. i Germany Has met her obligations punctually and regularly, even during trying periods of cconomic depression and thus has justified the confidence and | trust imposed in her as a signatory to the Dawes Plan. ‘ As it stafids' today the plan is a marked tribute to the organization genius of the man who read the “riot act” to the United States Senate upon being made vice-président of the United States. If the Senate were as wise as Europé was, the Senate will heed his words. ~ ; The Boy’s Future Experts tell us character is formed in early child- hood. If they are right, then most of the babies sitting around now are going to grow up and be loafers. : But you never can tell. The child who plays under the bed doesn’t always become a burglar. Just because a little fellow enjoys making mud pies, you can’t say he is going to be a great divorc: lawyer, Will the béy: who snatches his younger brother's milk and drinks it become a prohibition agent? No one can forecast the child’s future. The boy seldom turns out to be as good as his parents hope, or as bad as the neighbors expect.

[ — Bditorial Comment | Minnesota’s Royal Guests (Minneapolis Journal) Minnesota is hostess today and tomorrow to that “Most Christian Prince,” Gustaf Adolf of Sweden, and the Crown Princess Louise, his charming Eng- lish wife: / The royal travelers, since laitding in New York, have been well and cordially entertaiiied.
