A Legal Farce Trial of Tom Mooney, America’s most noted prisoner, must be classi- fied as one of the most monstrous legal farces of -our time. The charge was that Mooney com- mitted murder by causing the Pre- paredness Day bombing of 1916. He was convicted of the crime, some say by perjured evidence, and sentenced to death. This was commuted, to life imprisonment at the request of Prest- dent Wilson and Mooney has since been a prisoner at San Quentin. Two charges originally were filed against him, but after his conviction on the first charge the second never was used. Recently it was called into play by Mooney’s supporters in an ef- fort to obtain a review of the original testimony and thus establish in the public mind the fact that Mooney is innocent and should be pardoned. In short, the whole thing was a show, in- tended to affect public sentiment. ‘This, in itself, may have been justi- fied. So much has been said and written about the Mooney case that most persons, impersonal lovers of justice, are at sea regarding it. A complete review of the case might have solidified sentiment on one side or the other and accomplished a def- inite result. But the show ended before the first, act was well begun. The jury had hardly been selected before the judge instructed it to return a verdict of aot guilty. The whole hocus pocus of this sec- ‘ond trial has resulted merely in the expression of opinion by a jurist who admittedly had pre-conceived ideas in the case. The “second trial” leaves the gen- eral public as much in a muddle as it ‘was before. Good Intentions Why a well-known place not men- The Bismarck Tribune fices which they have made. It knows that the spirit of which the poppy is emblematic stands for a better na- tion, dwelling in’ freedom and with splendid opportunity for happiness. The poppy calls to us, too, for an- other reason. The contributions made by purchasers are helping many dis- abled veterans to carry on. They are helping to care for fatherless families. It speaks to us of America’s great virtues of faith and hope and love. Bearing these things in mind, every- one should wear a poppy next Satur- day and contribute his bit to the cause, be it much or little. The Transport Problem The question of how rail and high- way transportation is to be worked out remains to be solved. Two recent supreme court decisions underline our need for a definite program. In one case, the court held, in effect, that railroads can extend their opera- tions through the use of motor trucks without getting the permission of the Interstate Commerce Commission. This ruling came down after several New York terminal companies had sued to enjoin the Pennsylvania rail- toad from using its own trucks for transferring goods in the New York area. In the other case, a Texas law put- ting trucking companies under strict supervision of the state railroad com- Hmission was upset. Texas sought to regulate the rates, hours of employ- ment and methods of operation of all carriers using state highways; but the supreme court overruled the State's refusal to grant a permit to a trucking company in a test case. These rulings only emphasize our need for a comprehensive program to deal with the whole question of rail and highway transportation. Proof of Persistence Every year at this season one or more subscribers writes in to ask the best remedy for dandelions, Both research and practice prove there is no quick and easy way but that some methods have proved ef- fective. Most experts simply say “dig ’em.” Others, searching into the field of chemistry, recommend a solution made by mixing a pound and a half of iron sulfate in a gallon of water and applying to the base of the Plants. Still others dig the weeds and put lye in the holes made by this pro- cess, All the methods are simple and more than a trifle tedious. In fact, there are few greater proofs of per- sistence than a lawn free from dan- delions. Minnesotan Named As Farm Loan Aide St. Paul, May 25.—(#)—Emory Swenson of Foley, Minn., has been in- stalled here as deputy agent of the seventh farm loan bank district for handling applications for loans direct to farmers under the newly-created Introducing the American Game of ‘Playing Ne, oy farm credit administration, J. P. Rior- ad agent in charge, announced to- jay. Riordan, whose home is in Madi- son, Wis., was named recently to take charge of the loan office in St. Paul with supervision over applica- tioned in any geography has excellent paving is illustrated by the situation now existing with regard to farm re- financing in North Dakota. When Senate Bill No. 3 was in- troduced in the last legislature it was conceived as a plece of progressive legislation and in this spirit it was given support, Now, however, it appears that this same measure may act to keep our farmers from the benefits of the farm refinancing act recently passed by congress. The federal government's Position, apparently, is that it loans to the individual as well as on the Property and the individual must ac- cept responsibility for repayment, hence the provision against deficiency judgments in this state makes the fi- nance administrator cautious, Regardless of the merits or demer- its of the state emergency legislation —and it obviously has both—the ef- fect will be bad unless the government rules that it can operate in this state. Meanwhile, every possible effort should be made to obtain a favorable ruling. Federal re-financing will mean the saving of many a rural home, the lifting of many burdens from the shoulders of hard-pressed farmers. To be denied its benefits would be tragedy indeed. Token of Love Poppies will be sold on the streets of Bismarck Saturday to remind us that there are graves in France filled with the bodies of American boys, other pain-racked bodies still alive but suffering the wounds of war, and loving hands willing to care for them. Poppy day is an annual event and one calculated to bring back memor- ies, The feverish days of the Great ‘War when contingent after conting- ent left for training camps, when Bis- marck and every other community Joined with zest in Red Cross work and when the whole resources of the nation were directed toward a com- mon end, all come back to us. The little red flowers are the after- math of that effort and of the spirit- ual strain which it imposed upon everyone. The war spirit is gone now and America longs for peace. It wants no more matchings away, no more families made sorrowful by news from the front. But it remembers, also, those who did go away and particularly those who returned handicapped by their experiences in the struggle. It recog- tions to farmers in Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin and Michigan. In a news article Wednesday it was stated that Senate Bill No. 3, which is blocking extension of federal re-fi- nancing to North Dakota farmers, is before the state supreme court. This is incorrect. The bill before the court is Senate Bill No. 2, which is some- what similar in its nature. Conservation Corps Uses Special Train Bismarck got its first view of the Citizens Conservation Corps in mo- tion Thursday when a special train carrying 278 men and five army offic- ers passed through here on the North- ern Pacific railroad, en route from Chicago to Fort Stevens, Wash.

ELECTRO-SURGERY A BLESSING FOR GRANDFATHERS Candidly, I don’t know whether this gentleman is eligible for fellow- ship in the Grand Fathers Guild or not. He is as coy about his age as @ spinster of the nineties, and so far as his letterhead and his signature indicate he might be a spinster, T swan. It reads in this fashion: I. M. Nott—you have two guesses whethec! it, means Ike or Inez, But maybe it’s/ all right. Times are hard all over— our friends wanted to save a bit in the printing and the cost of ink. ~ “Knowing you are interested in the advancement of surgery, I take the liberty of stating my case to you, for thru you it may pre- vent others from enduring the misery I went thru. “My case was prostatic obstruc- tion. I was operated on (the old way) in December, 1931. In hos- Pital seven weeks suffering great pain, also one month in bed at home. For a year afterward the abdominal’ wound drained. “Thru your column I learned of the new method and I consult- ed Dr. whom you recom- mended as skilled in transurethral electro-surgery. He operated on me Dec. 12, 1932, I spent only three days in hospital, and had no pain or trouble whatsoever. The normal passage was restored in a few days, and now I am happy. “Have been benefited by your Todin Ration and Belly Breathing, too. May your good work go on.” Even if we attempted to offer de- tailed explanation of the subject few laymen could understand it. Suffice to say that a gradual development of obstruction of the bladder in elderly men is usually due to hypertrophy or enlargement of the prostate, and if the condition is permitted to drift along for months or years physical health is steadily impaired and then mental vigor declines—the man who has perhaps been the ruler of his domain and made all decisions be- comes capricious and irresolute. He is a tough customer to convince. So he drifts along. This new departure, whereby the skilled urological surgeon can deal successfully with a considerable num- ber, tho not all cases of prostatic obstruction, is a special dispensation for grandfathers, as I see it, because it is so much less formidable an ordeal to face that it should and does encourage many victims to submit to operation before general health has ternative in cases where the ordinary operation is too great a risk. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Infectious or Contagious Please explain the difference be- tween an infectious disease and a con- tagious disease. (Mrs. W. B.) Answer—Any disease caused by in- vasion of the body by germs (infec- tio is an infectious disease. diseases acquired by actual contact are called contagious—such as the itch (scabies), ringworm, erysipelas, scarlet fever, smallpox. Some contag- ious diseases may be contracted also thru indirect means, for instance fever thru contaminated milk or thru mouth spray infection (conversation- al spray). Fraudulent Marriage 4 I have an adopted daughter who is engaged to marry. She does not know it, but her grandmother, an uncle and a cousin on her mother’s side all were insane. She herself is apparently normal, tho it was hard for her to learn in school. The man she is to marry has a brother who is mentally deficient. (Mrs. M. J. G.) Answer—I believe it would be a fraudulent marriage if the prospective husband is not informed about the in- sanity in the family. Offspring of such a union would be quite likely to be defective. For the best interest of all concerned you should apprise the man of the facts, and have the advice of a physician or physicians who know both families. (Copyright 1933, John F. Dille Co.)

JUDGE 1S ACQUITTED HELD NURSES NEE IN TRIAL BY SENATE Father Feehan Addr Alexius Graduating Class At Commencement cited as important character requisites dress given by Rev. Father Robert thedral, before members of the 1933 class of St. Alexius hospital Nurse’s Training School Wednesday evening at the city auditorium. In addition, faith in God and stead- fastness to Christian ideals were listed as necessities for nurses who wish to reach the highest peaks in their chosen Profession, Pointing out that nurs- ling is one of the most useful and \serious vocations in the world today, Father Feehan showed that only the young woman of high character is willing to make the sacrifices and undergo the privations occassionally demanded by her calling. The speaker commented on the fleeting pleasures of fame or wealth in contrast to the enduring satisfac- tion of honest service efficiently rend- ered. He asked members of the class not to be discouraged at small failures and disappointments and su that they equip themselves for the vicissitudes of daily life. “If you wish to have a pleasant and successful journey,” he declaxed, “you must have a destination and hn ideal. yourselves, and for those less fortun- ate than yourselves.” filled the auditorium for the service, and flowers banked across the front of the stage where: the members of the graduating class were seated, and friends. the class colors, red and white, were in evidence. ‘The musical part of the program included selections by the Engelhardt .

Louderback was accused of “ty= Tranny,” “favoritism,” “unlawful con- duct as a judge,” “misbehavior in of- fice,” and with being a “hindrance to litigants” in various cases, The verdicts varied from 63 not guilty and 11 guilty in the Gilbert count to 45 guilty and 34 not guilty on the final, all-inclusive charge.
