Sinclair, who has represent- ed North Dakota in congress for the last 18 years, will be an independent candidate for re-election this fall. Beaten in the Republican primary by a combination of unfortuitous events, Sinclair was slated by his own party for retirement. Whether or not the people of the state as a whole agree with this purely party Verdict remains to be seen, for Sin- clair’s merits as a national lawmaker are sufficiently obvious ta have won the support of many persons who are not ordinarily interested in party af- fairs. ‘This is particularly true now that the results of the primary have be- gun to sink in. The proposal to trade a man of established merit for one who is untried is challenging seri- ous thought. Another cause for con- sideration is the increasing knowledge of how things are done in congress. There, where committees do the bulk of the work, Sinclair's seniority rights have made him a power. He has places on important committees to which any other North Dakotan will not be eligible for many years. ‘The record shows that Sinclair, of all our North Dakota representatives, was the most effective worker we had in congress, although Senators Nye and Frazier and Congressman Lemke all received more publicity. But it was Sinclair who brought home the bacon. It was he who ob- tained the appropriation for fight- ing grasshoppers and he who kept the federal agricultural experiment stations in operation. The others helped but Sinclair was the key man. Thus his loss now begins to appear as almost irreparable, if North Da- kota’s voice in the lower house is not to be one of mere protest. If the government is to do for us the things it could do, we must have in Wash- ington a man who.can get the gov- ernment’s ear and command its in- terest. That the man nominated in op- position to Sinclair can do so is a practical impossibility. It takes a new congressman several terms to get fully acquainted. With 435 members in the house new men frequently are less important, when it comes to getting things done, than many of the committee clerks. These are the things that inspire the demand for Sinclair to run as an independent. They are the con- siderations which have resulted in widespread promises of support for him. Good Work, Boys One of the local phenomena which has*caused some comment recently is the revival of baseball in Bismarck. For a number of years the great| national sport was in the doldrums here. The reason was obscure but the fact was apparent. Few games were played, the team usually break- ing up in mid-summer, and no great) enthusiasm was displayed. A few of the faithful, both players and fans, vetained their old love but public in- terest was dead. Last year things changed. Under the sponsorship of the American Le- gion interest was revived. The local team was rebuilt and the attendance was the greatest in Bismarck’s his- tory. The junior teams swung into action and baseball again became a dominating interest in our younger generation. This year further progress has been shown. Thanks to government help and local enterprise, Bismarck now has the finest baseball plant in the state. Its team plays a brand of base- ball which is only slightly less agile and effective than that played in the better leagues. The probability is that our club would make the North- ern League, nearest geographical rep- resentative of organized baseball, look to its laurels if it were entered in racted attention elsewhere next year other cities will pattern their activities after it. Good red-blooded Americanism, as represented by participation in and support of this fine pastime, has been stimulated. Bismarck owes a debt of gratitude to the men whose leadership has made this possible. A good way to pay it would be to attend the few remaining games which the senior team will play this year and give the .99| boys @ hand. Besides, you'll enjoy it. Cats vs. Birds A Bismarck man, reporting the de- struction of birds in his neighbor- hood by cats, asks if “something can- not be done about it.” Generally speaking, the answer is no. The law prohibits shooting in city limits and to poison any animal is a ‘are too wary to poison. To ask some people to get rid of a cat would be like asking them to get rid of a member of the family. The felines are of no earthly use, but some people like them, even acquire an apparently real affection for them. Nevertheless, something should be done about it, for the destruction of birds by cats is a source of pain to many individuals, fully as real as would be the death of a cat to the process unthinkable. Besides, cats| Pl! THE MODEEN TREATMENT OF SNAKE BITE By experiments on dogs Dr. Dudley Jackson of San Antonio and Dr. W. T. Service have shown that it is pos- sible to remove considerable venom from the tissue by suction. But they consider antivenin « valuable remedy, as it is the only known substance that will neutralize venom when once venom has been absorbed, and it is impossible to prevent some absorbtion of the venom in @ case of snakebite, no matter how promptly incisions are made or how carefully suction is ap- lied. These investigators advise the fol- lowing treatment: Release all tight tourniquets and re- place them by one just tight enough to obstruct the lymph circulation and not the free venous return. Under novocain make a large cross cut at the fang marks. Make a circle of sec- ondary cross cuts % by % inch about three inches from the original wound. In these small incisions inject sev- eral hundred c. ¢. (perhaps half a pint) of 1 per cent. salt solution and apply suction over the original wound to wash out the diluted venom. Con- cat owner, The gentleman with the peeve against cats was inspired to his com- ment by an actual happening which proves the point. 5 All summer robins have lived in his yard. He and members of his family have fed them. The feathered visi- tors were welcome and became quite tame. Into this sanctuary have come sev- eral cats, owned by a nearby neigh- bor. As the gentleman sat in his yard he noticed the cats hiding in the hedge. Down to earth came a robin and out from the hedge came a cat. Result, one less robin. To the man in question it was a tragedy just as real as the death of the cat pos- sibly could have been to its owner. What he said about cats would hard- ly bear repeating. To an impartial observer, if any there be, the best argument seems to be on the side of the birds. Dogs, comparatively harmless, are taxed, whereas untamed predators such as cats are allowed to run free with no taxes on them. Make no mistake about it, a cat is a hunting animal. Turn tabby or tom loose anywhere and they'll get by, even if the bird Population does suffer. Drive the roads at night and most of those eyes you see gleaming from the ditches in the dark belong to cats just out for a frolic, probably to be topped off with a dessert of prairie birdlife. Putting it bluntly, the issue here seems to be cats vs. birds, and there seems no room for argument as to the majority choice. Bismarck, in view of this man’s ex- perience, might well lead the way by putting a city tax on cats. Many a man thinks he is tolerant when he is merely afraid to invite comparison. You can’t expect much reform while people forgive a bad man if he’s a good fellow. Pilate took water and washed his hands. The modern way is to let the mob have the keys, 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. Roosevelt and La Follette (New York Times) In his Green Bay speech the presi- dent made a polite acknowledgment of the support which Senator La Fol- lette had given to many of the ad- ministration measures. This was in- terpreted by some as equivalent to an endorsement of the Wisconsin senator for reelection. It was even said that Mr. Roosevelt had, in ef- fect, urged the Wisconsin Democrats to vote for this nominal Republican. On the other hand, there were cred- ible reports that the president had yielded to the appeals of the Demo- cratic leaders of Wisconsin, who think that they will be able to elect @ senator of their own party, not to make more than @ friendly allusion to Mr. La Follette, which is certainly all that he did, so far as concerns the words actually used. ‘His caution, if such it was, is now rewarded. Senator La Follette has come out with a platform of his own to which the president could not pos- sibly give approval. It includes a de- mand for the public ownership of railroads. It advocates tal operation of public utilities. calls for a “government-owned cen- tral bank,” so as to make “central- ization of credit in private hands im- Possible.” Finally, it coolly proposes: “If private employment fails, then the government should provide every person able and willing to work with & job at decent .” The evident truth is that Senator La Follette is preparing to break with Political parties. He hopes to imitate his father in setting up and controlling a party which he will call ive. In furtherance of that E plan, and for the purpose of estab- Follette dynasty Ushing the La in ‘Wisconsin, his brother Philip, the ex- has announced int tinue this suction for an hour. Every hour for 10 to 15 hours repeat the suc- tion, using cupping over first one incision and then another. For the suction a small rubber bulb with inverted glass funnel may be used. A considerable quantity of venom can be extracted in this way every hour, and besides some fluid leaks from the wound between suctions. If the swelling progresses, make ® brace- let of % inch criss cross incisions around the highest point of swell- ing, and a new incision where this fluid has collected in large quan- tities. In most cases not enough incisions are made and the suction is not con- tinued long enough. Morphine for pain, stimulants when indicated, injection of large quantities of normal salt solution, and blood transfusion may be necessary in cases where medical treatment is late. Between treatments the limb should be kept dressed with hot wet dressings of normal salt plus sodium citrate. The citrate favors the outflow of venous serum. ‘These investigators have tested sev- eral of the popular remedies for snake FIVE SAW WAY OUT OF INDIANA LOCKUP Alleged Slayer of Indianapolis Policeman Among Those to Escape | project is completed there, according | to local men who have been working | PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE | By William Brady, M. D. Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to disease diagnosis, bite, particularly magnesium sulphate and glycerin packs, chloral hydrate, alum and gunpowder, kerosene and fi- nally permanganate of potash. All of these remedies proved useless, and the permanganate is likely to cause serious swelling and sloughing—al- most as bad as the snakebite itself. The better drugstores have anti. venin in stock in regions where rat- tlesnakes occur. By following the di- rections on the package any one can inject the antidote. As antivenin keeps indefinitely, a package may be carried in the emergency kit; or if you are going on a short trip in snake country the druggist will rent a pack- age for a fraction of the cost. If you have antivenin at hand it is better NOT to apply a tourniquet, but inject the dose at once and let it en- ter the blood stream. If no antivenin is at hand (it is ef. fective if given within an hour or two) probably the best treatment is imme- diate criss-cross cuts thru the fang marks just thru the depth of the skin (% inch deep) and perhaps % inch long, and immediate suction with the mouth. Also bind something tightly around the limb above the wound, but loosen this a few seconds every five minutes. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Superstition When my mother was expecting me we lived on a farm.

Only one inmate, a 70-year-old man, was left in the jail. He said he slept soundly and heard nothing and knew of no plans for the jail break. Sheriff Frank Hattery was away from the jail capturing corn thieves when the escape occurred. Those who escaped in addition to Mason were: Lowell Driscoll of Indianapolis, awaiting trial for vehicle taking. Frank Wallace, Hamilton county, an alleged chicken thief. John Martin, Negro, who was to have been taken to the Indiana state Prison at Michigan City tomorrow to start serving a one to 10 year sen- tence for robbery.

The pool was formed by damming the outlet from some springs, the work being done as a community en- terprise. At its deepest point the pool shows 12 feet of water and a diving tower has been installed. A life guard is kept on duty at the times of greatest necessity. The proposed FERA project is to drain the pool, brick up the springs, rip-rap the edges of the pool, gravel the bottom, build dressing rooms and toilets, and grade the land around the Pool preparatory to the possible plant- ing of trees. The expectation is that Long Lake township will pay for the supervision and the FERA will fur- nish the labor. The pool, about the size of the Bis- marek muncipal pool, has had as many as 150 swimmers in it at one time this summer. rect any false impressions his articles history of banks were wrong in every particular and we are making 21 and August 4.
