national politics." On an average of
once a week the United States is made
the third party in some alliance which,
it is alleged, can maintain the peace of
the world. Even Japan has been men
toned as one of the powers with which
this country would act in world poll
tics.
ALL of this speculation is interesting
in a way. Undoubtedly we are worthy
of consideration in all matters affecting
the peace and progress Of the world.
We control an empire of vast proper
lions and of many strategic advan-
tages. Our resources, both as a peace
power and a war power, are enormous.
We are a bidder for trade and a pro-
ducer on a large scale of many of the
necessities Of life. But such talk as
comes from Paris in the car and kai-
ser story is baseless. Germany and
Russia have no plans this country
would abet to the exclusion of other
nations. We have troubles of our own,
but we stand for international peace
always and will do our share in pre-
serving it. At the same time we shall
be careful not to mix in some other fell
lows game.

REAL MEANING OF THANKSGIVING.

Thanksgiving is of little value If our
expressions of gratitude have no effect
upon our conduct. By acts, rather than
words, we show u appreciation Of
blessings. If our citizenship is regarded
as a princely inheritance, we should
resolve to transmit it, not only undis.
figured but improved, to the nexi
generation; if our educational system
has proven a boon, it should be extend.

sources are not squandered, and that
the bounties which the Creator intended
for all shall not be monopolized by the
cunning and the avarice of a few; if our
government gives to life, liberty and
prosperity greater protection than does
any other government, we have nc

Not Made In America.

Commenting upon the proposed world
theater trust, controlled by Americans,
and following methods that have run
the stage in New York, Chicago and
other great c%enters, much to the scan
dial Of the drama, the New York World
won't go down in foreign art capitals.
First it rings in the old Barnumism
that the American people like to be
humbugged, whereas the play going
public in continental cities is of a diff
ferent order and takes the drama seri-
ously. Furthermore, the Parisians,
Viennese and Berliners know what
acting is and what a play should be-"
If the theater trust should be pow
erful enough to force the ideas Of
Broadway upon the foreigners it is
hard to see where there is ground for
complaint. The whole tone of the show
business on the stage in this country
has been imported from foreign marts.
and it is no p%alliation to say that only
the purlieus of Paris, Vienna and Ber-
lin have been raked. American agents
lie in wait in Europe to seize upon the
latest stage novelty for the American
boards, and the standards of taste here
in SO far as they fall below traditions
which date from Moliere" do not rep
resent American culture. The patron
age of the latest novelties from Paris
in Broadway halls m chiefly from
those who have seen the originals or
something of the same sort abroad.
Were it not for a foreign educated
taste there would be no support here
for foreign plays of the type which has
driven the classic drama from the
boards. The theatrical syndicate will
have invented something new if it
gives Europe anything different from
what it borrowed there originally.

The next congressional candidate who
may be looked for to his
candidacy as a representative of North
Dakota at Washington is Hon. H. T.
Helgesen of Milton, who was given place
on the slate made up on Tuesday of this
week at a gathering of insurgent re-
publicans from over the state. Mr..
Helgesen has not been heard from
personally, but no doubt will accept the
nomination--if he can get it. The
meeting of the reform element of the
republican party at Grand Forks this
week resulted in the resurrection of a
lot of politicians who we're supposed to
be almighty glad that they we're dead
since the close of the last scrimmage in
the political arena.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
The Suilipan Incident

The Sufiiuon Incident
1t is said that the Sullivan Company
of Goldfeld, whose failure was reported
last week, are able to meet their ooiiga-
lions and will resume business. The
embarrassment they were in came about
through the merciless exposure OF their
business methods in the Ridgway mag
azine.
The charge was made that the per-
sonnet Of the firm was anything but
good, and their fismboyant advertising
in the Eastern papers was what led
the magazine sending its representative.
Mr.. Dennison, to Nevada.
The people of the State should con.
graduate the magazine for taking such
an interest in our affairs. for the ex-
posure has worked a great deal OF good
in opening the eyes of investors to the
crooked methods Of securing money re-
sorted to by INSCRIPTIONS men en-.
gagged in what they are pleased 10 call
mining promotion" Under this term
mines are put on the market which are
nothing more than capitalized sand
banks, and the money of investors il
secured by downright misrepresenta-
ton.
The Sullivan Company is charged
with reporting ore shipments when no
a pound of rock was ever taken out OF
of some of the mines they are putting
on the market, and also making wash
sales and giving cross orders to outside
brokers to give the stock a fictitious
value for the purpose of fraud and de-
ception.
If this charge can be s~ubstantiated
there is work for the Esmeralda County
Grand Jury, and the soone they get
at it the better.
There has been a lot of this rascally
work done in Nevada and it has given
the State a bad reputation. 1t would
rehabilitate the State in the eyes OF thu
| world to make an example OF men VIII
practice this sort of ~rascality and sci
them cracking real rock at the peniten'
tiary.
The tremendous volume of business
handled by the Sullivan firm must hav'
been in a large measure bogus or they
would not have peer even temporarily
embarrassed. In giving their cross or
ders they were obliged to deal with
two brokers and pay commissions t.
both, which gradually shaved down
their funds and the inevitable results
followed. 1t was a clear cast OF
monkey finding a razor and trying tt
shave himself, with disasterous results
The next Legislature may possibly
take the advice given it by the Appea
two years ago and enact some Wholesome
legislation on this subject. Legislation
that will punish swindlers and protect
the investors.
When it is generally known that tbs
State protects its investors, the invest
ors will come in this direction in &
steady stream.
Such legislation means much to the
future of this State and its mining in
terests. Carson Appeal.

Gators Oh lut cuD-
iect of Economy in Education" said:
we have today o great many more
elective courses of study than we need,
a.d we have multiplied them without
any definite principle or clear under
standing Of the purpose for which the
elective system exists. Its true object
is to find out what lines Of work a boy
is good for. To do this 1t is not neces-
a to have as many different studies
as there are different kinds of human
interest. 1t Is not true that each pupil
can be appealed to by some one sub
ject and that one only. There are three
well defined types of mind-the scien-
tifc. the literary and the practical. If
you have arranged your courses so that
you can find out to which of these
types a pupil belongs and teach him
certain subjects by a method that suits
him. you have done all that is needed.
The work of the school will be more
efficiently and economically accom-
plished If this adaptation is made with
a few subjects instead of a great
many"
