And all the secrets of the air

ONE PLAN FOR PARK.

When the city park commission gets
down TO business it will probably re-
caiva numerous suggestions. One idea
ON which most people of Fargo are
unanimous is that Oak Grove be pur-
chased and converted into a park.
That may probably be the the first OIL
fetal action of the commission. There
are other propositions more or less
feasible.
Una ouas+ion that must be consid-
cred is that of boulevard system ana
q series of little connecting parks IN
tbe down town district. Many people
insist the city should purchase the
rridiron north Of the Great Northern
tracts between Broadway and Eighth
street If found later to be unsuitable
for a park the site could be sold at
big advance.
AS the park commission law gives
the commission authority to go out
side the city limits to secure sites,
there is a proposition which sooner or
later may become feasible. That is to
use the state fair grounds for park
except when the fair is in session.
There should be no difficulty in secur-
ing the permission of the state fair
people-as the park idea would beau
tify the grounds and make the place
so much more attractive to the peo-
pie who came to see the big pump
kins. The park commission could Sc
cure this location without the expen-
dfture OF a cent for site and the only
expense would be in identifying the
grounds and maintaining them.
1t is a plan that could easily be
worked to the advantage OF both the
state fair association and of the city
of Fargo. In many other cities of the
country such an arrangement is made
and operates to the utmost satisfac-
tion of everyone.
The Forum believes is worthy of
serious consideration.

Washington thus takes her place with
Idaho. Colorado. Wyoming and Utah.
Thus she gains in one respect. If
woman crowds man out OF the office,
the store and the factory, she must not
be surprised liz on the way home she is
crowded out of the trolley car. Thus
she loses in another respect.
If woman is to have equal rights in
the home she is to have no additional
immuntIes over the husband. Former
~ the theory was that no man should
strike a woman under any circum-
stances. The jurist seems to have
altered this rule trife If the wom-
an hits the husband and in the manner
known best to a woman incites him to
insane jealousy-she must stand a rea-
sonable amount of chastisement.
Thus does the world equalize things.

THE EoUALIZED WOMAN.

a Judge in New York city re-
fused to grant a separation to a
wife-although she proved conclu-
sively that her husband had treated
her inhumanly. He had assaulted her,
she successfully maintained. The Judge
holds, and very rightly, that since the
losing his temper she cannot have
her separation. The wife went off with
a brother-in-Iaw Of the husband and
gave the husband extreme cause for
what he did. The wife also struck
the husband, rified his pockets, pulled
pictures from the wall Of the home
and also assaulted him. In accord
ance with the rule that he who would
recover for an injury inflicted by an
other must himself be free from any
responsibility for the accident-tiis
decision would seem to be good one.
Then, again. If one sue another for
fraud he himself must be free from
fraud. A wife who throws dishes at
her hubby must expect some OF them
to come back at her-and she must
not ask the court to punish only her
husband.
In this day when the suffragette il
demanding equal rights, and IL maxi
ing Roadway must not be sur
prised IL her former privileges are
found to be slipping away. No longer
under the protection OF the husband,
but upon equal standing with him. she
must not be dumbfounded If she ENDS
her former immunities fading out
The state Of Washington has just
granted equal Suffrage ia woman

PUBLICITY PREVENTS CRIME.

The New York World agrees will
Woodrow Wilson that pitiless publicity
is a remedy for governmental abuses
saying:
Not merely publicity, but pitiles,
publicity, is the remedy woodrow
| Wilson prescribes for most of the I'm,
OF government. Secrecy in govern.
ment is the great abuse against which
he, like The World, has declared war
II dishonest officials could put off
the day of reckoning to an indeter-
inmate time-giving them even scant
hope of escaping altogether exposure
and punishment-they would be bolder
and more persistent in their depreda-
ttons. The certainty of exposure is as
strong deterrent to some offenders
as the certainty of punishment IF the
mlsdeeds of an official are to be
promptly exposed by publicity many
public officials who are inclined to do
wrong will hesitate and probably be
deferred altogether
In state, county and municipal af-
fairs, as we'll as in national-there
has been and is now wrong-doing
among venal officials, which would be
lessened by plan of pitiless publicity.
For instance, if there could be inau-
gurated system of publicity reveal
ing to the public every step in official
life' abuses in office would then he
rare-for no man would want to COM
NIT wrong with the stern fact ever
confronting, like a public accuser
that his misdeeds would be published
the moment committed, or at least at
stipulated periods.
The reason national banks are gen.
orally conducted with scrupulous care
in all the minutest details is because
of ''pitiless publicity" of their finan-
cial condition required of them by the
government and the ceaseless vigilance
with which they are guarded by the
government. The reason the postal
service is so nearly perfect in its op-
Grafton is because of the imperative
rules and the watchfulness of the gov
eminent
If the affairs of a state, county or
municipality were as carefully guard
ed and restraints on officials were as
exacting as with the federal govern
ment-there would be less abuses in
office, but in the place of watchfulness
on the part of one official over the
record of another-a systematic plan
of pitiless publicity would meet all the
requirements

Travellers Tales

Lieut.. Gov. r. S. Lewis Is one of
the best campaigners that ever waged
a political battle. He loves politics
for the game and likes to see the
game played on the level
During the recent campaign he con-
Quoted to, fight for the republicans in
Cass county in a most judicious man
ner and after fashion that won him
many admirers among his rivals in the
opposite political party. All this came
about by the gentlemanly manner in
which he conducted his campaign
from the central committee headquar-
tiers.
Two weeks before election Mr..
Lewis worked among the smaller
towns over the county. While in these
little villages he often had to explain
many of the actions of the guberna-
torial candidate for reelection. Often
these discussions would wax warm
among the inhabitants, for the simple
reason that if 1t came to final word,
the genial lieutenant governor could
be referred to for a final decision.
In one of the discussions minister
drew himself up and concluded rather
pasionately with;
God will govern North Dakota"
The brief silence which followed
was brought to an abrupt end by an
indignant individual on the outskirts
of the crowl who defiiantly exclaimed
in a ringing voice audible to the en-
tire gathering:
'Tll wager $50 that he don't carry

READY FOR THANKSGIVING.

Next Thursday is day set apart for
giving thanks. President Taft wrote
his before the landslide-while he had
thankful feeling. Governor Burke
got his into shape after his third term
victory and naturally felt somewhat
in thankful mood. With a national
and q state declaration to guide them
the people of North Dakota should
have no difficulty in celebrating the
event. Politically the situation might
be worse-there might be more demo-
crats--or two or three Andy MilIers.
In a material way, North Dakota
has not been so prosperous as in some
former years-but there is no suffer-
ing and little destitution in the state.
With only temporary check the peo-
pie are prosperous and happy.
For the future there is not much
to worry over The legislative ses-
sion is coming, but the people may
pray that it won't do much harm-if
1t does no good.
Taken altogether North Dakotans
should be thankful lot. The sun still
shines and God reigns. The ministers
viii have appropriate Thanksgiving
services Thursday. Fargoans should
attend and they will be in a better
frame of mind afterwards to enjoy the
turkey the cranberry sauce and other
not forgetting the pump
kin pie.
