(Official City, State and County Newspaper) "——~Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (ncorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON There Must Be No Abatement Seasoned politicians have learned trom experience that no argument in a campaign is too insignificant to ig- nore. Too many battles have been lost because some outrageous claim was overlooked. One can never tell when an extreme statement unsup- ported by any modicum of truth will sway the masses and furnish a real battle-cry. ‘That is why the local Capital De- fense Committee is so tireless in “meeting every contention uttered at Jamestown by those engaged in the most vicious campaign of deception in the history of North Dakota, And that is saying a whole lot for this state is not noted for anemic cam- Paigns. Citizens of Bismarck and the thou- sands of loyal supporters throughout the state must not abate their efforts or neglect to answer even the most absurd assertion. In some ways this campaign is a most difficult one. The wording of the amendment upon which the peo- Ple of the state must cast their ballot March 15 is such as to deceive the voters, as the whole drive against Bismarck is one of deceit and of fraud. “Garner votes at any cost,” is the hue and cry of the Jamestown racket- eers, Hi-jack a whole state if neces- sary to line the pockets of a few op- Portunists is their intent. “Get votes) at any cost,” is the command, for there are no ten commandments af- fecting or regulating the stealthy vari- dalism of the Jamestown wreckers. Common ethics are suspended and a false civic pride has been aroused by the buccaneers to hold in line sup-| Porters within the confines of Stuts- man county. There is much sly hu-) mor exchanged on the streets of Jamestown these days among the pro- | moters of Capital Removal, because they are figuring how many votes Jamestown will get from those who will vote “‘yes” thinking that a pos-| itive rather than a negative is the proper expression if they desire the seat of government to remain at Bis- marek. It is the job of Bismarck support- ers to relay to every corner of the state the caution: VOTE NO. From now on that must be the bur- den of our warning. The inherent in- ertia of the voters must be overcome. To be effective they must go to the Polls or, being unable to do so, get ‘an absent voter’s ballot now. There is no time to be lost. ‘The injury and damage will affect every voter of the state if the Capital is moved. It is not Bismarck’s battle alone and that fact is generally ap- Preciated by the people of the state as reflected by the voluntary offers of support from every part of the state. ‘This campaign is now in its final stage and effors must be redoubled to put Bismarck’s message across to the voters who, once understanding the issue, will be most emphatic in voic- ing at the polls their contempt for | the Jamestown promoters. | It Touches Every Home An empty crib in the Lindbergh home is a tragic symbol of what menaces every home where children No one cen tell where it will strike next. It may be the act of a degenerate and sadden the hearts of the poor as well as the rich. Money Sfeed is not always the motive in such eral cooperation be had when kidnap- ing becomes inter-state in its char- acter. Federal agents have volun- teered assistance in this case without the pressure of enactment. Some form of federal anti-kidnaping law is feed- ed, but at the same time state laws and penalties against such a crime must be made more severe. The fed- eral government can never be so ef- fective as the state in coping with such crime. The job- of dealing with kidnaping is essentially an obligation of the various states with federal en- actment to supplement and aid in the detection of such criminals, There should be no shifting entirely of re- sponsibility to federal authority. That would be a backward step. Kidnapers have existed even before pirates rode the Spanish main. Hold- ing for ransom is as old as history it- self. The United States has witnessed, in the last few years, an increase of the crime. In many instances, kid- naping has proved an easy way to col- lect great sums of money. Recent cases have involved more adults than children and most of the kidnaping has been done by members of gang- land. Many of these gangs have grown in power as a result of the liquor racket and when business in — | booze gets slow, their activities turn to other phases of crime. Kidnaping is hard to run down. In this case there is a baby in the hands of a brute or a gang of criminals. The perpetrators of this crime know their power over the bereaved parents who care only for the return of the loved one. So wisdom and care must al- ways be used in striking at such fiends. That is the great problem before the lawmakers and authorities in the Lindbergh case. One false move on the part of the police and it is doubt- ful whether the child will be recoy- ered. A whole nation is in prayerful hope that the child will be saved. If ad- ditional laws can reach such crimin- als more effectively there should be no delay in enacting them. John Philip Sousa When one thinks of bands and their contribution to the music of this and other nations, the name of John Philip Sousa comes first to mind. His marches immortalize his name. Few figures in his particular field of music approximate Sousa’s fame; none has received the popular acclaim that is s. He had composed 300 works and his band played in practically every state in the nation and most of the import- ant cities of the world. The strains of his martial music contributed much in fostering devotion to the nation. His music put in stirring notes what every patriot feels toward the flag. It is hard to estimate the real serv- ices of such a leader. . Sousa died, as it were, in the har- ness. Death came but a few hours after he had laid down the baton for the last time. What going could have been more fitting for a man whose vigor and application to the art he loved were outstanding character- istics? Great leadership of the United States Marine band focused atten- tion upon him early in his career. He displayed a genius there which pres- aged a great future. Band music ap- Pealed to him above all other forms of expression, but he was no mediocre musician. As first violinist in the famous orchestra of Offenbach, com- Poser of “The Tales of Hoffman,” he displayed great genius. Sousa reflected his ideals in the di- rection of his band and in his compo- sitions for which he was as famous, if not more so, than as a director. Few artists played a greater part than he did in popularizing good music throughout America. He lived for music and because he loved his art so much, he carried mitlions along with him in a great devotion to it, Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, Jamestown’s Tragedy (La Moure Chronicle) The final outcome of North Dako- ta’s futile battle over the situation of our capital is still to be told at the Polls March 15, but there seems to be little reason to believe that North Da- kota’s citizens will do else than give Bismarck an overwhelming victory. Every sign points in that direction— tradition, fairness, practically are all on the side of Bismarck. For why should the citizens of a state already burdened with problems, add to those problems by abandoning well over a million dollars worth of property and prepare to shoulder a greater tax bur- den by making so disastrous a change? Jamestown’s tragedy lies not so much in almost certain defeat of the wrongly-directed ambitions of some of her citizens, but in the onus of con- tempt bearing down on her city from the rest of the state and in the in- ternal friction developed within her own borders. For years and years to come, Jamestown as a city will suf- fer from the effects of her ill-advised campaign to remove the capital. ‘When men who have spent years of their lives, hours of effort and tp Jamestown are forced to quarrel with other citizens, only unhappiness can result.

Sigh for Funny Gents New York, March 8.—In these days when columns seem to tumble over each other in the New York press, many oldsters find themselves sighing for the funny gents who day-in-day- out turned out humorous depart- ments for the dailies. Several have been swallowed up by Hollywood; some write books and some do pieces for the weekly and monthly magazines; some have gone radio and some have just naturally disappeared. * * * Miss Archie the Cockroach None has ever come along to take the place, for instance, of Don Mar- quis with his poetic slapstick, as in “Sonnets to a Red-Haired Lady,” or his Archie the Cockroach. Such mel- lowed daily verse and prose appears to have belonged to another day. Nunnally Johnson, wag of the Post, turned his hand to fiction and most successfully. With the old Morning World went Frank Sullivan, maddest, of the daily clowns, now finding his: roof in the New Yorker and other publications.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXII Deal had never thought of Larry in connection with any- thing so prosaic as work, To her he went with the gayety, the light- ness and laughter in the world, She knew he was an artist but when he had teased him for details of his work he only told her lightly that he was not an over-zealous art- ist. So she was considerably surprised 2 few days later when he came to Dreamland to ask if she would pose for him. A special show— the Shane Show he explained—was to be held in six months. If he could get one of the’ prizes for portraits ~his reputation would be made. El- len’s first impulse was to refuse him. She was too busy. Surely he could get someone better for a po! trait, a society woman perhaps or an actress, someone well known, But he persisted. It would take only such @ little time he pleaded. It she couldn't or wouldn't pose, then he simply would not enter the competition, Ellen hesitated, torn between prudence and desire. At last, againet her better judgment, she agreed to do as he wished, “Ab, you're a darling to say you will,” he exclaimed in relief apd satisfaction. “I won't take m of your time.

Sometimes if you're not too tired we could drop in there after you're through here.” Again the girl hesitated. ay ont want to sound like a ude,” she said frankly, “but I'm Atrald I couldn't do that Seeing he was puzzled, she went on, her clear, candid eyes on “My mother wouldn’t hear of ai & thing—and not because she doesn't iim either, It's be 5 hed, I gues and I'm old-fashioned,’ ton f Pie’ 5 go ie, your étudio at night @ chaperon, feel right about it, nae “It would be all Tight of Mon- days and times like that though.

He xGrmed the subject with a kind reluctant and unwilling admiration: “You're a queer little Puritan, Ellen, but I’m not sure I don’t ad- mire you for it, Girls nowadays are too free and easy—the kind I seem to know, anyhow. They've tossed away a lot trying to grab off the sort of freedom that doesn’t seem to make them happy when they get it. It seems a silly thing to say, but I'm going to say it, You're a wise little girl, Hilen.” Ho caught his breath and laughed @ confused, uncertain. laugh. It ‘wasn’t much. But Ellen treas- ured those words. eee i . OFTEN during the next two weeks she went to sleep dreaming dreams of Larry. She was seeing a different side of him these days, ‘was learning that he could work as well as play at high tension. She loved this different side of him, loved the inexhaustible enthusiasm he exhibited for color, for paint, for canvas, for real labor. ‘Things at home, financially speak- ing, were going much better since she had received the increased sal- ary at the store but the additional money from Dreamland was still n¥cessary, Not for much longer Ellen hoped. Molly, fretful and distressed over the continuous companionship with Larry and not to be consoled by the fact that Ellen was seeing @ great deal of Steven at the store, had grown strangely apathetic. She seemed temporarily to have lost her ability to spend money before it was earned. Nevertheless Ellon had often the feeling of a tight-wire walker, She knew, did Ellen, how easily a budget can be upset, There were other things that Save her the feeling of s tight-wire walker. For one thing, even though she gre him countless opportun!. tles, éven though ghe could feel that he and she were coming closer and closer to some inevitable climaz, Larsy failed to say one word about his engagement.

The studio was bare and plain, so obviously ghe room of @ workman that it seemed incredible Larry could have chosen At luncheon with him her thoughts would stray to Larry. She would wonder what he was doing, where he was, what he was saying in those hours he spent away from her, Then she would start with a sudden realization that she had heard not one word of what Steven had been saying. Larry, even if he had been more honest with her, she knew would still remain one of those suitors who can never be depended on. He blew hot and blew cold; laughing a gale one minute and quarreling fiercely over nothing the next, After those spirited quarrels he generally stalked away without a word. Ellen would cry herself to sleep, con- vinced she would never see him again. ‘Tho next night he would turn up at Dreamland, unabashed and unrepentent, the cause of the quarrel and the quarrel itself for- gotten. Ob, it was maddening never to know where one stood, thought little Ellen. as thousands of other girls have thought. yee had some times the strange feeling that in this double, or, rather, triple life she was leading she was losing Molly, losing Myra id little Mike, losing touch with her home as she was certainly los- ing touch with her duties at the store.

She knew all these things and yet could not feel regretful, Larry’s very contradictions were & delight; the burning, feverish Jove she felt for him was an answer to her wild, young prayers of the year before. Nothing’ mattered when she was with him except that she should please him, Nothing mattered except that here was an- other evening, an evening when she might learn where she stood with him. She was always straining to- ward that issue. Always he was eluding it. ‘Then came an August night when Bert and Myra accompanied her to the atudio, one of the free Mondays that came all too seldom.
