PAYNE, BURNS & SMITH NEW YORK - : - Fifth Ave. Bldg. (Official City, State and County Newspaper) Judge Charles M. Cooley North Dakota loses one of its outstanding men with the death of Judge Charles M. Cuoley of Grand Forks. Since 1913, Judge Cooley served the people of northeastern North. Dakota faithfully. Through his wise decisions and his continual work to better legal conditions in the state, he earned the respect of not only those who practiced in his court, but also of many laymen. In the supervision of the affairs of closed banks, Judge Cooley played an outstanding part, and no one will deny that through his wise administration thousands of dollars were saved for depositors. He was always a firm backer of any project destined to help North Dakota. Judge Cooley would have been a credit to the judiciary of any state. He labored long and faith- fully for the people of North Dakota. His work will not soon be forgotten. Indiana and Politics Indiana politics have never been of the purest type, but it would seem from the recent indictment of Governor Ed Jackson and other prominent citi- zens that conditions are even worse than they were believed to be. Governor Jackson is charged with having offered former Governor Warren McCray a bribe of $10,000 in return for certain political favors. D. C. Steph- enson, klan leader now serving a prison sentence for murder, made the charges which have resulted in the indictment of the chief executive. It may be claimed that it is merely malice, rather than actual facts, which prompted Stephenson to make: his statements to a grand jury. The indict- ment would seem to nullify this. The fact remains that, regardless of the outcome of Jackson's trial, it will have a wholesome effect on Indiana politics. There have been demands for a thorough airing of the affairs of that state for some time, but at last they appear to be taking concrete form. The result should bring Indiana a government at least partially cleansed of graft and corruption. Mexican Press Freedom The liberty of the press, it is reported, will be the chief issue in the coming Mexican election. General Arnulfo Gomez, one of the leading candi- dates to succeed President Calles, has just issued a statement denying that if he were elected he would suppress all hostile newspapers. Other candidates are also expressing themselves strongly about liberty of the press, and, to believe them, the Mexican newspaper men will soon be in as stable a position as are their American brethren. But it has been the habit of Mexican presidents to promise much and do little. President Calles, it is true, is a man of action and has not laid his hand very firmly on the newspapers, but there were those before him who had no hesitancy about sup- pressing any publication which did not favor them. Freedom of the press has been nothing more than an idle phrase in Mexico most of the time. In this connection, the more rabid among us who ee Judge Gary was among the opponents of the shorter day. But after four years, what has happened in the steel industry? Just this: production has been increased; the la- bor turnover has shown a big decrease, and steel prices, as a result of the economies effected by the shorter day, have declined substantially. The executives who fought the new schedule now admit that greater efficiency has resulted. The in- dustry as a whole is working better and both capital and labor are getting more out of it than under the old man-killing hours. | Editorial Comment | Where Our Summer Went (St. Paul Dispatch) While official and unofficial weather prophets deny and affirm that the past summer was normal, the popular faith is that it was cold and is inclined | to take sides with the unofficial predicter who as- serts that the official observers are suppressing the facts as to low temperatures reached and thus lift- ing the average, to have it appear normal and dis- credit their critics. Convinced as we may be as to the chilliness of the late season, our opinion maybe confirmed by the experience of the Honorable Mrs. Victor Bruce of London. They set out to make a trip to the Arctic circle by automobile, traveling 6,000 miles through Belgium, Holland, Germany, Denmark, Lap- land and Finland until they were well up into the Arctic circle. - They took plenty of warm clothing and coats, prepared for freezing weather. Instead this is what they found, Mrs. Bruce says: “All the time we were in the Arctic zone the temperature was never lower than 90 degrees in the shade.” That contin- ued when they reached the most northerly: point, within 40 miles of the Arttie ocean. Mosquitoes were a torture only second to the ‘Polar heat. Our summer went north for a change of climate. Perhaps the earth tipped a little—or changed its axis slightly—as it has done before. Such sultri- ness would make the Polar bears unbearable in disposition and ruin Santa Claus’ toy industry. It may be the earth will tip back into line by next year, but what really is needed is the enactment of an anti-tipping law. ' Stop the Air Tragedies (Duluth Herald) The world has watched the spectacular ocean flights of recent weeks, at first with wonder and ad- miration, then with doubt and pain as tragedy after tragedy marred the thrilling and heroic story of the conquest of the air, and finally with growing irritation at the utterly needless sacrifice of valu- able human life that is going on. These stunt flights across the ocean have demon- strated that it CAN be done—at least the eastward flight over the Atlantic and the westward flight to Honolulu can be done. But they_ have also demonstrated the fact that in neither direction can it be done without great risk, and that the odds are so much against the success of any particular flight that it will be bet- ter if the flyers stop—or are stopped—until the air- planes can be developed to a point where they will be more surely fitted for long flights. Two other facts have been proved, too, by recent tragic history. One is that regular air routes across the ocean, which the sanguine believed were at hand when Lindbergh made his flight, are still a long way in the future. Another is that those who, like Mr. Brisbane, have been worrying lest any day a fleet of hostile airships will show up to blow New York off the map, have been nursing foolish terrors. The flights that are now going on, ostensibly to! advance the cause of aviation, are not advancing it at all. They are, rather, impeding it. Aviation has gone far, but the ambitions of aviators have gone still farther. These ambitions ought to be held in check until the airplanes catch up with them.

This may not be the greatest and most glorious country in the world, but from the newspaper man’s standpoint, it is nearer para- dise than any other. Politics in South Dakota South Dakota politics are becoming more intri- cate than ever, It wasn’t so long ago that Senator Peter Nor- beck*had things pretty well under control. Every- thing was running smoothly. There was no talk about who would be South Dakota’s Republican presidential choice in the state primary. But now things are tangled again. Former Gov- ernor Carl Gunderson, projected rather abruptly from® the political limelight, has come back again with the beating of drums and cymbals. He ad- dressed an open letter to Senator Norbeck the other day. In it he suggested that the two of them get together with the view of carrying the state jointly for former Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illindis. To this Senator Norbeck has answered nothing, but it can be surmised that the political pot Has begun to boil full blast again. North Dakota is often pointed out as a solitary example of a state where politics eclipse every- thing else in interest. It would seem that our southern twin is not free from this, either. And the presidential primaries in South Dakota are like- ly to cause more politicians heartburn and sorrow thap-those in North Dakota. ‘+ ‘The Shorter W Day A shortened working day might not work for every industry, for industries are different, and must be suited to meet the needs. But in one ‘great industry, America’s leader, stec!, hour day has proved a benefit. the available evidence supports the conclusion that the president had a good time, enjoyed his visit thoroughly, and would like to come back to the northwest some time. For Presdient Coolidge stayed in South Dakota till the last minute. And he did not have to stay unless he really wanted to do so. After he an- nounced that he did not choose to run again, there were no political exigencies that required his pres- ence out where the west begins. He could have found dozens of plausible excuses for cutting shor‘ his visit and hurrying back to the capital. It should also be noted that the president con- tinued his fishing, continued to shelter his brow un- | der the ten-gallon hat, continued to be a cordial | neighbor in a breezily western community, for! weeks after he let it be known that he was out of the running for the next Republican presidential nomination. ! Which disposes rather effectually of the sneer | of the know-it-alls that the whole South Dakota interlude in a busy man’s life was a transparent bit of showmanship, distasteful to the man in the prin- cipal role, but carried through in a grim effort to win, or hold, the political support of the prairies. The truth is—as any really observant individual must have seen right along—that Calvin Coolidge has probably enjoyed this present summer as no other vacation in many years. New scenes, new at- mosphere, new activities—these are the things that make a vacation a success. And Calvin Coolidge had them all in the Black Hills. charged, but for trout; and because he had learned a year earlier, possibly to his surprise, that a grown man can have as much fun catching trowt as a boy can have. He wore the ten-gallon hat because he liked to; because he doubtless has cherished all his life a secret desire to wear a cowboy hat, just as every other normal male American has done, No, Calvin Coolidge enjoyed the northwest and the northwest enjoyed Calvin Coolidge.
