HowLER CALLED DOWN.
The Spokane Chronicle has the fol-
lowing editorial:

The Spokane Chronicle has the fol-
lowing editorial:
Dishonesty is q national character
istic," declared President Penrose of
Whitman college, addressing the Pro-
gressive, Business Mems club at Port
land Wednesday night. "Our ma
tlonal life is characterized by graft
and corruption. We have the worst
managed citieskin the world. We are
made the laughing stock and the shame
Of nations with our padded ac-
counts"
Softly. DOCTOR softly. Read Il over
again and see If 1t is what you really
meant to say--or were you misunder-
stood?
America has its rascals. So have
England and Germany. America has
its frauds. So have France. Sweden,
the Netherlands. America has It's
srafters. So have Russia ana Aus
tria and Italy. America has its
thieves. So have China, Africa or In
Ola America has its liars. so had
Rome and Egypt and the Garden Of
Eden itself.
Is q nation which chooses for its
leaders men of fearless honesty like
Roosevelt and Taft characterized by
graft and corruption?" Is a country
where the spotlight OF pitiless publicity
is ever seeking the smallest evidence
Of official dishonesty likely to be the
prey Of rascals? Is the fact that ev-
cry newspaper in the land features the
disgrace and demands the punishment
OF all the bribetakers and boodlers who
can be discovered--is that an EVIL
depce that this land Is careless as to
It's integrity
When learned Europe and hoarv
Asia crouched before weak kings ana
petty princes Americans taught the
world the truths Of liberty. They de-
dared "all men are created EQUAL
Iighty~flve years later their grandsons
were forced to risk the nations exist

They paid the price Of loyalty to truth

DAY or SPECIALISTS.

I
This is the day OF the specialist.
He is found in every walk OF life--in
every kind of business. 1t is not nee
essary to call names. all that the read
er needs to do is to think of any par
ticular branch of Industry and he will
find that the heads of the different de-
partments are specialists--but all
working together to the end of making
a whole organization and producing
satisfactory results.
The modern city has come to be
product Of the specialists. 1t is not
that the several departments OF city
government are separated and each IN
the hands OF special men. Nowadays
the actual business of government is
one Of the less important affairs of
city.
The modern city maintains well
organized body for promoting the
growth Of It's business interests--its
educational affairs-and its moral in
fiuences This organization is called a
chamber Of commerce. commercial
club, or some other name. This body
looks after the city's interests gener-
ally. 1t is also divided into special
departments, each under competent
head-and all working together to pro-
duce one harmonious and upbuilding
result.
The secret OF success in city build
ing Is specialized cooperation. The
city must first specialize, then co-op-
erate-the result, a modern city.

WHAT MAKES cRIMINALsf

Is the unwillingness Of the young
men of today to do manual labor re-
sponsible for the prevalence Of crime
among youth?
judge Thomas G. o'sullivan of the
court Of general sessions in New York
city thinks this Is the case.
He has made a special investigation
Of the large number of youthful pris-
oners arraigned before him. He found
that the greater proportion of them
were the sons Of respectable and in
dustrious parents who had sent their
sons to school until they were 16 or II
years old. But the boys had learned
no trade--had never had any regular
employment of any sort--and showed
distinct dislike for manual labor.
Judge O'Sullivan summed up the
causes for the increase of crime among
young men in New York city as fol-
lows:
A lack Of religious or moral in
struction in the schools.
Reduced wages which have deprived
parents and their children OF former
comforts or Injuries.
A Discrimination on the part of young
men to work, partly because of their
having been spoiled at home, and part
ly because OF their own realization OF
the inadequacy Of the wages they will
get in the trades.
Bad associations on the streets at
night.
What is true Of New York city is
probably equally true of other cities
and towns. Schools which would
teach boys useful trades would doubt
less save many Of them from crime.
But homes in which children are
taught to live within the family in
come and to shun evil associates are
even more necessary than manual
training schools. Teachers cannot make
good the lack Of proper home train
ing.

VOLUME xxxIv. NO. sf2.
FORUMS BIRTHDAY.

with tonight's issue TheForum COM
pletes Vol. Xxx A score Of years ago
the publication was started. Its BIRTH
place was at 10 Broadway-in a little
frame shack just south Of Harring-
toms hardware store. Maj. A. w. Ed
wards and III. c. Plumley were re-
sponsible.
The major had desk to the right
of the entrance-where he gave every
body the glad hand. Just in front OF
the door was huge stove and behind
II were the makeup stoves. Along the
wall to the right was an old double
desk at which the reporters sat. Along
the left side of the room were the cases
OF type. Back-behind all the type
and other junk-"Plum" had little
cubby hole fenced in for the business
once" Still further back was the
press room.
II was not a palatial once. But
what was lacking in equipment and
fixtures was more than made up for In
the enthusiasm Of the owners and the
attaches-and their determination to
make The Forum win.
The first issues were only four pages
mot very large ones at that. But II
was a saucy little sheet-with plenty
Of life and spice TO 1t.
Since those days The Forum has
grown. It had its troubles. There
were many dark Moments great deal
Of hard work-many bitter disappoint-
nnents-but there were also bright
spots. They are vividly remembered
and the dark ones are almost for
gotten.
The people Of Fargo and North Da-
kota have stood by The Forum most
loyalty. Whatever success The Forum
has been--is due, in a great degree TO
the splendid cooperation of it's friends.
The Forum takes modest pride in
its growth and development. 1t has
always sought to work in the inter-
ests Of the city and Of the state-to be
a builder rather than to tear down. It
has made Mistakes great many Of
them. 1t has been right-quite right
on some occasions.
II is glad to have successfully COM
pleted its first score Of years of serv-
ice-and starts in to be 81 with re-
newed confidence in the future-a
strengthened belief in the city Of Far
60 and the state Of North Dakota
and especially in the good people of
this blessed section Of the great north
west.
OF the original "force" three have
been continuously connected with the
paper. H. C. Plumley is still manager.
Chas. Brewer, who was reporter
from the first issue, Is managing edi-
tor, and J. p. Edwards, one OF the
original carriers, Is now business man
ager.
