Residents of the section where the victims lived toed the mark without grumbling and carried out the sani- tary measures suggested to them. Persons in other parts of the city made voluntary chec%s of their prem- menaces. The epidemic was stopped everyone cooperated. There is a lesson in that which Bismarck might apply to things other than epidemics or grave emergencies. With @ sufficiently solid front almost anything can be achieved by the Cap- ital City. The Laugh Is on Us Jesse L, Livermore, speculator who holds the title of “the boy plunger of Wall Street,” went into bankruptcy early this summer. Now he has paid off his $2,000,000 debts and has a comfortable fortune for himself. Honest toil and careful frugality have rescued many a man from fi- nancial disaster. In this case, how- ever, it was a combination of the drouth and the Chicago wheat pit that did the trick. Mr. Livermore Played the market in wheat, and rode up with the rising prices. The Tesult was a very tidy profit indeed. The ordinary citizen is occasionally 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. The purpose of the mass meeting, as is frankly expressed in the call for it, is to unite the entire citizenry in the fight against graft, corruption and the kind of government we had for 18 months. The manner in which the people of Bismarck and Burleigh county respond will give a pretty fair Indication of the probable outcome of the election in this area. If few come and there is no interest, the Democratic campaign will be merely a beating of the atmosphere. If there 1s a large turnout it will be proof that the people are interested, and an in- terested electorate is very hard to fool. ‘The meeting, presumably, is not intended as a political rally as the word is commonly used. There will be little, if any, attempt at political evangelization. Instead, it will be assumed that all who come have a working knowledge of the facts and ‘want merely to determine what shall be done about them. This is the opportunity for which many Republicans, or erstwhile Re- publicans, have been waiting. It in- vites them to enlist in the cause of good government under the Demo- cratic banner without making a per- manent affiliation with the Demo- cratic party. It asks them to lay aside such political differences as may exist between the two estab- Ushed parties in this state and make common cause of the one thing every decent political organization should stand for, That is the principle of common honesty. In addition to considering how the | creditors. Democratic candidates for state of- fice may best be assisted, the meeting will discuss what can be done to pre- vent the supreme court from falling {nto political hands. The majority of the court has ac- quitted itself well during these recent trying months. Its members have demonstrated their courage and their fealty to the oath which they took upon entering office. They have in- terpreted the law fairly when it was @ test of their manhood to do so. There could be no better recommen- ation for any candidate. Opposed to them are candidates who might properly, and without in- ult, be called political galley slaves. Beholden to one man for their en- dorsement and nomination, they will * owe it to him if they are elected. Personal interest might properly be expected to outweigh the public in- terest wherever they might clash. North Dakota wants no rubber stamp supreme court. It wants a vourt with courage enough to inter- pret fairly and squarely the laws which the people have laid down for their own guidance and that of pub- Uc officers. Because the incumbent members of the supreme court have refused to take an active part in politics, it be- comes necessary to give them aid and support if the last bulwark of our Uberties is not to be swept away. North Dakota have for several years comes extravagant speech as well as extravagant political and legislative action.

His “gestures” on behalf of the dis- his measures, were almost invariably supported by the dramatic, Hit- leresque device of calling out the state militia, It was because these gestures ceased to have political value when the drouth-prostrated farmers were no longer interested in grain prices or debts that Governor Langer found- ed _& newspaper in his own support and, according to the evidence that convicted him, tried to exact contri- butions from CWA, PWA and other beneficiaries of federal relief to his publicity fund. It was because the tremendous popularity of these “ges- tures” lingered in the public mem- ory, however, that William Langer, sentenced to a federal prison term and removed from office by his own state supreme court, almost succeeded in having an extraordinary session of the legislature impeach the court and in fortifying himself in office through another of his resorts to martial law.

William Langer amassed his gre: political capital by exploiting the Da- kota farmer's discontent; but it is now the farmer's prostration and de- pendence on relief that has enabled Washington and the former gover- nor’s local enemies to trip him up and cripple his powerful machine.

BY fies dN a DUTCHER Correspondent) ‘Washington, Sept. 13.—(#)—The Penny peanut bar has come to be one of the more pressing problems here— and that’s only a phase of the entire Peanut situation, which is much more Puzzling and complicated than you Would suppose. . There is going to be a peanut pro- cessing tax sc as to fix yp the farmers Peanuts each year, most of which go into those penny and nickel bars for kids and other people. Congress, you know, insisted on declaring peanuts &@ basic commodity. Well, the plain facts are that the; Penny bars are threatened with ex-/ tinction, because are just as few Peanuts in them now as our children will stand for. The Ameriean peanut bar king tells the AAA that the youthful consumers can tell to a half peanut any cut~in the peanut content, whereupon they turn in disgust to all-day suckers or something and threaten the peanut bar industry with bankruptcy. If peanut prices on the farms rise above $65 a ton, he says, you simply have to put in at least one less pea- nut. Then goodby penny bar! But rays of hope shine through. ‘The farmers probably will be satisfied with $65 a ton—if they can get it. And on account of an interplay of com- Plexities which involve the peanut oil situation and which give me a bad headache when the erudite Mr. Dan Dent of AAA tries to explain them to me, the farmer probably will pay the tax, which means the price shouldn't go any higher.

Perhaps you'd also like to know that the peanut magnates agree that the number of salted goobers in a five-cent bag has been cut to a bed- rock minimum and if there were any fewer the salted peanut husiness would go blooey, too. ‘That's important, because a lot of us ‘are going to be eating more peanuts this winter when we see the prices of some other eatables.

The only cabinet member who hasn’t an official “personal flag” now is Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace and the navy, which hasn’t anything to do except plan for a war with Japan, would like to take care of the matter. These flags are hoisted on the fore- mast whenever a cabinet member boards a naval vessel, and they're nifty for parades or even for # corner 2 the office if you like that sort of thing. Jim Farley and Homer Cummings (he’s the attorney general) just got theirs after decades of delay and the Hydrographic Office issued a special supplement to the International Codes of Signals about it. The flags are blue with a white about a cent a pound year before star in each corner. The central de- sign of the Cummings flag is a mere variation of the eagle - perched - On - shield motif, but if any of you deep- sea fishermen see a flag with a big galloping brown horse on it bearing down upon you, that's Farley. The horse is mounted by a fellow in blue coat and white pants who is supposed to be carrying mail bags. Heavy going is reported in pre- liminary conferences as to a Wallace flag. No artist could crowd in all the Grains, fruits, and vegetables — and nuts — Wallace has to worry about, and @ group of a cow, a pig and a sheep would look even sillier going to sea than Farlev’e horse. It looks as if thé navy might let this matter ride until after it takes care of that war with Japan. (Copyright, 1934, NEA Service, Inc.) If I owned a circus, Gen.
