(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEWYORK BOSTON Bismarck Then and Now George P, Flannery, who carried Bismarck’s bid to Canton, D. T., and who is one of the few living men who knows the strategy of the campaign which brought the capital from Yankton to Bismarck, in a Bismarck interview recently emphasized the courage and enterprise of the pio- neers who in 1883 donated $100,000 so that their dream might come true. A frontier village of less than 4,000 with a few intrepid leaders saw an opportunity to rear on the banks of the Missouri river a territorial capi- tal which might in a short time be- come a state capital, and in a spirit which has characterized this city ever since, they succeeded. These pioneers, whose ranks now are thinning, are guests of Bismarck today at the historic event of the laying of a new cornerstone. To them is owing a great debt of grati- tude for their efforts in battling for this city in many causes which at first looked hopeless. It would be impossible in the space of an editorial to give credit to the many leaders and those who served faithfully in the ranks in all the campaigns in behalf of this city. Bis- marck has been a city of political strife and contention for years. What it has gained in the way of public recognition it has fought for most vigorously. There has always been a united front against those who sought to deprive this city of ad- vantages gained in many a vigorous fight. The ends have justified the means. This city has grown from a small river-front village to what it is today. There are many guests within its gates today who laid the foundations of the city and gave it a fine start toward its present growth. ‘When one turns over the pages and reads the history of Bismarck's growth the words of Kipling come to mind: “It ain't the individual, nor the army as a whole, But the everlastin’ team work of every bloomin’ soul.” Team work has done much to put Bismarck where she is today. There are many more contests to be won in the future. The construction of a new statehouse on the hill dominat- ing the great panoramic view of the Missouri river bottoms, with the great buttes banked against the hori- zon, brings new civic obligations and responsibilities. This city takes great pride in its general appearance. To greater en- hance the picture when the new cap- itol is completed efforts must be re- doubled to make Bismarck more beautiful than ever. Nature endowed the city with a fine location, excel- lent drainage and the finest water in the world. At its door are sup- plies of lignite of inexhaustible rich- ness. Supplementing this fuel is na- tural gas which will be an asset even greater than now when once the eco- nomic revival comes. In other words, Bismarck is equip- ped today with resources of all kinds which promise to promote the growth ‘which has been steady since the days of 1883. This is North Dakota's fast- est growing city, the center of agreat empire in this fertile basin of the Missouri river. The pioneers worked sturdily for the advancement of Bismarck. Oth- ers who have come since have tried to carry on in the same spirit and they, in turn, must enthuse those who are now beginning to accept re- sponsibilities of a civic nature. So here is to those pioneers whose vision of 50 years ago is largely real- ized in the Bismarck of today. Pathos and Bathos Political campaigns are merely re- flections of their times and that of major Both sides | Will seem, a hundred years hence, end of October we may see whole Platforms flooded with the dewy drops of suffering politicians. The fact that their suffering is, in the main, strictly vicarious and that they weep for different reasons is beside the point. The Democrats work themselves up over the deplorable state of the nation, and with telling effect. Their strength is that they do not cry alone and that they speak as fellow sufferers, since they have not been in positions of major responsibility and no blame attaches to them. On the Republican side President Hoover is the only one who has dared 0 take this attitude. There were many comments on the fact that his voice frequently was surcharged with emo- 50 | tion as he spoke at Des Moines, The rest of the Republicans exer- cise their lachrymose glands by exud- ing sympathy and compassion for Mr. Hoover. If all the stories based on the idea of the sturdy captain piloting the ship of state through the fog of depression could be gath- ered together they would make a book larger than an unabridged dic- tionary. But pathos sometimes changes to bathos and too often the campaign speakers make themselves ridiculous. Also, it is questionable if the public at large is going to weep in sym- pathy with the president’s troubles. It is one of the weaknesses of hu- man nature that people are inclined to be selfish. It is only natural to worry more about our own sore toe than about our neighbor's amputated leg. The toe is much more personal. In this case there are millions of them and only one leg. If the Republicans gain many votes for Mr. Hoover by this kind of cam- paign it will be a tribute both to their artistry and to the innate altru- ism and kindness of heart of the American people. ’ Honor for the Doughnut Whether you previously have been informed of it or not, this is dough- nut month. Tt has been so designated by the bakers of the nation out of whole- some respect for what certainly is a distinctly American institution. To say that a doughnut is merely an article of food or of commerce is to belittle its importance in the| Americar. scheme of things. Romance has been built upon no stronger foundation than those delectable morsels which come from the bub- bling grease pot, all golden brown and crunchy. There was a time in America, before we became diet con- scious, when no festive board was complete without a heaping plate of doughnuts. It has played its part in the na- tion's wars, as witness the activity of numerous organizations in operating doughnut kitchens behind the trenches in France—and -not so tar behind at that. Maybe that is where the phrase “doughboys” came from. Little wonder, then, that the bak- ers devote a whole month to its cul- tivation and promotion, instead of the usual week given over to com- mercial exploitation. Perhaps we should add to the growing list of things the nation needs the item of “more and better doughnuts.” Editorial Comment Fditorials printed below show the trend of Thenent by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. We Are Making History (LaMoure Chronicle) North Dakota is making history this week. On Saturday the corner- stone of our new capitol will be laid with appropriate ceremonies. It is an occasion which may be somewhat submerged in the minds of the peo- ple by the flood of campaign news and interest, but it is an important event in the career of North Dakota, nevertheless, Fifty years, a hundred years from now when we who are here now are in that distant land of which we know nothing, our children and grandchildren will be treading the corridors of the building which we dedicate this week. Perhaps among the mementoes of their ancestors they will find a yellowed invitation to the ceremony, tattered clippings of the newspaper accounts describing it, and pause to think of the day. North Dakota will be proud of her capitol as the years roll on. Today, some of us regard its modernistic lines, and sniff scornfully of the “grain elevator” which the commis- sion chose as the model! What if it does look rather like # glorified elevator? North Dakota made its early history on its vast wheat fields, won the designation of “bread bas- ket of the world,” it would be vastly appropriate if we had selected that design with such an idea in mind! But that probably was not the main consideration of the architect nor the commission which selected that design. The new capitol which will Tear its stately lines above the prat- rie is in the vanguard of architec- tural progress. North Dakota, the rural state from which the “sons of the wild jackass” have sprung, will have a statehouse which ranks far ahead of the now outmoded designs among older and prouder states. The pioneer days when men fought over the location of the capitol, fought again over who should be po- litical boss, have faded into the dim past, but to those future descendants of ours, we are living now in what another pioneer day. The events of which we think and talk now will | will be contradicted, because it is an ! 1 THE BUSINESS OF BREAKING DOWN FLESH The jolly, solid, wholesome looking | young woman who conducts a suc-j cessful beauty establishment came | staggering from a treatment room, | panting and perspiring and fell limply into a seat. From the room had come for twenty minutes sounds as though a couple of tough girls were having a lively bout with six ounce gloves. “My dear, what has happened?” in- quired an anxious aunt. “Nothing, nothing,” panted the pro- prietress, sagging wearily down upon her back. “Just a reduction treat- ment.” “But, why under the sun? don’t need to reduce, child!” “No, I know it, but I have to. These fat dames must have their massage and pounding to break down the flesh, you know.” Now that the diet fad is on the wane, @ good many of our parasitic) class are going in for reduction by, physical methods— massage, baths, electricity, pretty lights, etc., these at- tentions being guaranteed to break down the superfluous flesh or fat or to melt or soften it somehow so that it can be readily “absorbed” or caused to vanish, A lot of people in the moronic grade believe that some kind of mysterious soap or salts or other ingredient of @ bath will reduce or aid in the re- duction of superfluous fat or flesh. To the millions of morons in this country the beauty experts unblush- ingly promise either reduction or “de- velopment” of any part of the body to which the simple minded dupe will apply this or that salve or similar concoction. If this sort of humbug were per- petrated only or mainly upon the lazy parasites I'd applaud the game, for I like to see such people outsmarted by their intellectual superiors. But, alas, the racket derives its support largely from poor little factory hands, shop girls, stenographers and sales- girls. These have to work hard for their wages, and it seems a scandal that the fake reduction business is sanctioned here in Dollarland. I can state as an absolute physio- logical fact that no massage or pound- ing, manual or mechanical, no rubbing or vibrating or compression or other manipulation or passive movement will appreciably reduce or increase the size or development of any part of the human body. No fear that this You absolute fact. I can assure every interested per- son that any loss of weight produced by any bath or any method of apply- ing heat is merely the weight of the water evaporated in the sweat and! by the lungs if the treatment pro- duces panting. This loss is invariably made good within 36 hours by the intake of water in food or drink. Finally I can state without fear of competent contradiction, that the only means by which satisfactory and healthful reduction can be procured im any case is rational dieting, with daily exercise suitable to the individ- ual condition, and, in certain cases, special medication by the physician to correct glandular or internal secre- tion deficiencies, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Typhoid Carrier Can a person be @ typhoid carrier if he has never had it? If so, how does he get the germs? Is there any treatment for a carrier that will get rid of the germs? (J. E. B.) Answer—No. In some cases the original attack of typhoid fever had been wrongly diagnosed as “malaria,” “stomach fever” or “intestinal flu.” Cholecystectomy (removal of gall- bladder) has cured the carrier state in 48 out of a series of 60 cases.

I asked him what old- time joke or gag had seemed to him to get the biggest laugh. .. “Well, let's see,” reminisced Lew. “There was one in ‘The Man From Mars’ that always bowled them over. And because it’s so out of date, you may get a smile out of it. You can figure the date of the joke when I tell you that we used it just after cow- catchers had appeared on trains and street cars. Cartoonists were drawing funny pictures of people being tossed in the air and the papers had funny stories. So we put a cow-catcher gag into an act. A straight or feeder came on and asked me: ‘Say, Lew, I hear you've got a new invention. What is it? And my answer was: ‘Sure, it's a cow-catcher that first catches the cow, milks her and then throws her back into the pasture’, I wonder if anyone would even gig- gle if that wheeze were pulled today. xk THOSE COLUMNISTS Plenty interesting, it seems to me, is @ prophecy contained in Emile Gauvreau’s scorching and somewhat sensational novel “Scandal Monger,” which now has Broadway whispering behind its hands. . . Gauvreau, an important factor in the tabloid news- paper world, forecasts a hasty end for peep-hole gossip columnists. nee y are just about to pass from the picture, he says, and he sheds no tears for their passing, the while he paints a debunking picture of his chief character, who is one of the “dirt-dishers” by profession. . .

Head held high, she left him, but her hands were still clenched, and once in her own room she threw herself on the bed and gave way to a storm of tears, They were more of anger than of fear, those tears, yet to her came the thought that everything Morales threatened he had the right and power to do. They were, as he had said, in Mexico, It lay wholly within his power as guardian to send her wherever he chose. Slowly the sobs died, She lay on her bed, chin in hand, and looked resentfully out at the bright morning, Once, in a frenzy of grief and anger, her little fist beat upon the pillow and hot tears started to her eyes, From beyond the window she heard the passing of a horseman, humming a Spanish song of love and fate. Suddenly the thought of sepa- tation from Ted, of living exiled from him, even for a time, became intolerable, For the next half-hour she lay outstretched on the bed, brooding, planning, and at last she tiptoed to the door. Just outside she heard someone breathing and knew, that already her uncle had set a guard over her, She was a prisoner! Again her eyes flashed in rebellion, Kicking off her shoes she tiptoed with @ little baby telk when me.” 4 GILL each rise she glanced behind her, half expecting to see her uncle’s car in pursuit, but the run to Verdi was safely made, and an hour later the fugitive drew up before the major’s on quarters, ¥ quiet sympathy Aunt Clara listened to the girl’s story and when the end came, as it did inevi- tably in a flood of tears, the older woman put her arm about the girl and led her into the quiet coolness of the house. “Let's worry no more, dear, about trips to Mexico City. Instead we'll - talk about that big lover of yours. How did you two children decide you were in love?” Through her tears the girl smiled up. “That's what's called calming the patient, isn’t it?” “Don't you care what it's called. T'm giving you a wonderful chance to talk about your Ted.” She leaned back, looking at the girl with pity and something of envy. “And you do love him, don't you, dear?” “Love him? It’s as if I had waiting for just this to happen 3 always. As if all my life before was just a kind of preparation for now. Does love always come like that, Aunt Clara? Does it come to everye one like that? It almost seems that to me alone this thing should be. Is it always like that, and can one keep it like that—like a clear flame?” ‘The older woman made no answer. She may have been wondering how to reply, wondering if anyone ever ‘could reply to that eternal question. “Dear,” she said at last, “that 36 Handled, cutting, 38 To be furious. 5 Small green plement. 37 To perish.

No, chiquita, what I am really saying is that you will never, never so long as I live, marry Ted Rad. cliffe.” For a moment the girl looked steadily into his fixed eyes. Then her own eyes flashed. She stood before him, with little clenched hands. “You tell me that™ And I tell you, tio mio, that if there is one thing 1 am sure of in life, it is that * I will marry him. I will be his if 1 must give up everything I have ever known—if it makes me an out- cast, poorer than your driven peons, So you waste your time and mine in useless quarrels that hurt us both, and do nothing more. It is not fair that I, who am a woman, should be told that I shall not marry, for I say to you now and for always, [ will.” For a time the old Mexican sat brooding before the girl. He seemed to be considering something faintly amusing. At last he said: “Who shall say? And yet I rather doubt that you will marry this American, I since it is my wish that you leave for Mexico City tomorrow morn- ing.” She was past pleading now. For answer she laughed. “Unele, I have no least intention of going to Mexico City, either tomorrow or next month.” , 40 Except. 41 Seeker. 43X, 44To become pure, 46 Lecturer. 48 Tree fluid. 49 Inlet. vegetable. 6 Outdoor fight of stairs with a platform. 7 Behind in place, 8 One in cards. 9 Confirmed, 39 Half an em. 41 Sound of a flying bullet. 42 Low vulgar, fellow. 45 Obese. 47 Stream ‘obstruction. 30 Within, ster still stood by the gate, and now she suddenly smiled. Quickly she threw off the light silk dress and slipped into a traveling costume. Again she listened at the door and heard the soft breathing of her unele’s servant outside. She walked to the window and leaned out. The patio and yard beyond lay empty in the glittering sunlight. Thickly on both sides of the window the old wisteria clung to the stucco walls, Softly she raised herself to the low window sill, Hand over hand, very: gently, she lowered herself, then teached down with one slender leg until she found a resting place in the gnarled vine. In less than a minute her foot had touched the soft grass beneath, and in another in- stant she was running down the long Path toward the tall black gates. She looked back. A peon lounged beneath the eucalyptus. Toward the corrals a dog lay, lazily scratching! in the shadow of the wall. She was through the gate now and, vaulting into the seat, touched the starter. The hum of the motor broke the desert silence and a mo- ment later she was speeding for the open road, The revolt against Morales had begun, Once she gained the broad Verdi mile posts flashed by. ‘At half-forgotten years. You will have,... to ask a wiser woman how long love lasts or when it goes, or why.

Today he is the most talked-of human being in all the border country, and Verdi is for him, to a man, Bob told me—this is a dead secret—he's going to make your young man a partner, But how did you decide to love him?” “I couldn’t help it.” She laughed. “Of course not.
