Wet advocates naturally are elated by the mere fact that congressional fear + at taking a test vote has been broken down and in the future it’ will not be difficult to force other expressions on. this greatly debated ati vigorously contested issue. ‘The drys realize that opposition to their side of the argument is grow- ing in strength and greater efforts must be made to retain national pro- hibition, considered by millions now as a ghastly failure even though a “noble experiment.” It may take years of battling and bickering before laws regulating the liquor traffic are changed in any vital manner, but out of the conten- tion doubtless will come some modi- fication of the present stringent regulations which are not approved by @ majority of the people. The Literary Digest poll is hardly needed to convince students of public issues that the federal prohibition move- ment has failed. Neither can the leigslators delay too long some set- tlement of the issue. Each congres- sional election results in more wet representatives being elected. But in the meantime, false hopes should not be aroused by the wets in placing too much emphasis on the recent congressional vote in which the wets and the drys accepted the challenge to stand up and be counted. | It Won’t Be Long Now Even though the block may be rather long, spring is just around the corner. | It behooves everyone to begin now with their inside gardening—home work the pedagogues call it. Now is the time to sharpen up the _ pruning knives and other imple- ments of garden and lawn. Get out. your favorite seed catalogue and fig- ure out how you are going to crowd | in all those rows of radishes and | tomatoes. Considerable study can be given to | the color scheme of your garden and | that outdoor living room which the better garden and home journals draw in such alluring colors. All of this effort spells the city | beautiful. A sightly city starts at the | back doorstep and grows out from | that narrow circumference. Bismarck garden clubs, amateur | growers and professional culturists can get in some valuable work now while winter lingers. The Capital City has a reputation : for its well kept lawns, its attractive gardens and general interest in the city’s appearance. There should be | no abatement of such activities. Let there be a drive this summer to improve boulevards which add so much to the appearance of the city and to the impression upon visitors within our gates. » Now is the time to lay the founda- tions for a more beautiful Bismarck | than ever next summer.

Cooperative Advertising Millions of dollars in national news- Paper advertising are expended an- nually by trade associations in an or- ganized effort to extend the markets for the products of their industries. The Trade Association Department of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States points out that the amount spent annually by trade as- sociations in cooperative advertising has multiplied many times in the last ten years. Cooperative advertising, both in financial outlay and direct fesults, is now one of the important. functions of ‘many trade organiza- tions. Trade promotion plans for 1932 just announced by the National Electric Light Association call for the expend- iture of more than $300,000 in na- tional advertising, supplementing the large volume of local advertising by individual utility companies. The Association of Hawaiian Pine- apple Cannets also has announced that it will resume national advertis- ing. The association, it was stated, was obliged to discontinue its earlier advertising campaign about three years ago because it proved so suc- cessful members were unable to meet the demand which developed. The Window Shade Institute has just made public a new trade promo- tion service to its members consist- ing of newspaper advertisements, di- rect mail letters and folders. This particular promotional effort will be devoted exclusively to replacement. business. A survey recently com- pleted by the Institute showed that window shades are replaced on the average of once in seven years. Through newspaper advertising and mail promotion, the members of the Institute hope to increase their re- placement business in the current year. 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, A Victory? (Stutsman County Record) Many, many loyal, sincere citizens of Jamestown and Stutsman county were sadly disappointed in the gigan- tic landslide for Bismarck. Even those who knew that Jamestown had exceedingly slim chances have been surprised at the huge majority that Bismarck is piling up. While the majority of the removal- ists were sincere in their efforts we cannot believe that the leaders of the movement ever dreamed that the capital would really be moved to Jamestown. Even before a single bal- lot was counted Percy M. Hansen, edi- tor of the Jamestown Sun, sought to Place the blame on the 51 business- men who recently made a statement. in regard to the matter. If the “small group of political and financial leaders” (as Editor Hansen calls them) have been able to swing the state from a “large majority for Jamestown” to an 8 to 1 defeat, as Hansen claims, then Jamestown should wake up to the fact that its leading citizens can swing thousands and thousands of votes all over North. Dakota. When viewed in the face of the return, the charges that the Jamestown group swung the vote to Bignarce is so absurd as to be child- Rather these men saw the unmis- takable trend against Jamestown and saved from blemish the fair name of our city to say: nothing of the thou- sands of dollars which the business- men would have had to pour down the rat hole of the removal campaign been unopposed 5 ee 3 eRe Hea 1h E ge id ers ges. ie Hall i & 53 eee E 2 g B iy HE PE i 3 i b HHA al: ijt E : E 5 il fag TaETEE i Eee ale g ga cy hi FS A Our brothers across the river will go into battle here against a for- eign foe and we will support them with everything we have, but that does not mean we will not have our family athletic quarrels in the future. in both Mandan and Bismarck will sincerely hope not, for what would any athletic season be to either city without those traditional games between these an- No, Bismarck will beat Mandan in oo athletics whenever it honestly can.

But there has been a sudden flood of publicity which may well tempt the curious traveler, the tourist, the arty folk, the gate-crasher and the itching-hoofed Manhattanite. ! To Broadway, for instance, has| come a play titled “Night Over Taos,” in which the poetic Maxwell Ander- son has bared historic chapters of that countryside. And Mabel Dodge Luhan, one of the artist-residents who was presum- ed to be interested in keeping out “the mob,” has brought out a book concerning the adventures of the late D._H. Lawrence in this area. Back around Christmas time, a show of Indian craftsmanship was displayed for several weeks in the Grand Central galleries of New York; Indians were imported for songs and dances, and those ladies and ‘gents interested in native culture and such learned that our first Americans were turning out some elegant work in and about Santa Fe. Chambers of Commerce could do no more. eee Yet, to date, Taos has gone its own rhapsodic way. If it is “spoiled” by the invading tourists, Taos will have only itself to blame. Until this moment, few New Yorkers knew it was on the map, anymore than they had heard about Lander, Wyo. the Wind River Valley, the beauties of the Bechler River, Montana, or the breath-taking loveliness of the Sier- tas between Reno, Nev., and Sacra- mento, Cal. oa * Riverside Drive Emigrates The story of Taos’ rise to its Present status of an artists’ and wri- STICKERS ters’ colony was told me the other night by one of the “old regulars.” Mable Luhan, its present historian, was &n ex-Riverside Drive society woman. She had come *into some of the White (sewing machine) money and her home was, for many years, a rendezvous for the cognes- centi—whatever that is! It was once said that many of the episodes in Carl Van Vechten’s “Peter Whiffle” were written around her famous sa- jon affairs. At any rate, she wear- ied of the sophisticated and cosmo- politan things and trekked west- ward. She married a handsome, educated and important Indian chief and settled down., In this primal Eden, it would seem, she found even- tual peace and happiness. i TODAY aNeieeeAby Seine of eae GERMAN DRIVE BEGINS On March 21, 1918, the great Ger- man drive began, with an attack in great force against British positions on a 50-mile front from Arras to La Fere.
