A Staple Medicine
for All Families

From Infancy to Old AGE a Reliable
Family Laxative Is MOST Needed
Try This One.
It is uncomfortable in this day OF gen
eraI intelligence that any family would
be without a simple remedy for the
minor ills of life, for often by glvlng
can be frustrated and a life saved
For example, If at the first sign OF q
cold a simple la~xative-tonic like pr.
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin were given the
beginning of a serious lu1g affsctlon or
of a typhoid fever might be avoided.
And also in headaches, nervousness.
etc, a small lose of this remedy would
relieve the congestion and replace ais
tress with comfort Mothers give ~ 70
tiny infants and little children and
grown people takeit with equally good
effect.
Thousands of good American homes
are never without i, am1ng them ia
Drug Co, Prue, Okla. DR.. Hull has
for a number of years recommended DR..
CaIdwell's Syrup Pepsln in his pract1ce

disorders, worms in children n a gen.
eral laxative-tonic it has no EQUAL"

family, and 1t saves doctors bills. 1t Is
a guaranteed cure for any form or
stomach, yer and bowel trouble, con-
stipation, indigestion, btliousness, gas

twins it to any member Of the family,
however young or old, for 1t contains
nothing injurious to the youngest per-
son..

A SPLENDID SHOWING.

North Dakota is ranked eighteenth
educationally among the states of the
union.
There has recently been issued by
the division of education of the Rus
sell Sage foundation, a bulletin en-
titled A Comparative Study of Public
School Systems in the Forty eight
States. The bulletin gives the edu-
cational system of North Dakota the
general rank of eighteen in ten speci-
fled educational features. This is
based upon statistics gathered in 1910.
This bulletin places North Dakota
ahead of Minnesota, Iowa, Maine,
Kansas. Nebraska, South Dakota,
Wisconsin, Missouri. and all Of the
southern states. North Dakota Is
rated ten points ahead of Wisconsin
and this low standard is being used
as a strong argument there in the
present educational campaign.
North Dakota has reason to os
proud of her educational system and
should bend every effort to make it
still better. This bulletin gives the
of North Dakota at the close of
former superintendent StockweIr's ad.
ministration of eight years, and natur-
ally he feels much gratif1ed at this
showing. North Dakota's showing is
indeed c~ommendable.

"Y" EVENING SCHOOL
The Work Continues to Grow in In
tsrest and Enthusiasm and
Glasses Well Attended.

The work in the educational depart
ment of the Y. M. c. A. continues to
grow in interest and enthusiasm. The
various classes are stronger at this
time than ever before. The ones doing
especially fine work. are the classes In
English for coming Americans, the
business curse and the craftsmanship.
The preparatory English class o is
truely a melting pot. for in 1t are men
representing the following nationali-
ties: Assyrians, Greeks, Italians, Ger
man, Russian, Polish, N~orwegians n
Swedes. 1t is the business Of the
night school to teach these men the
customs and language Of their adopted
country. This class is in charge Of
Robert McCradie, a student Of Fargo
college, who is doing a great work In
helping these men to become acquaint-
ed with our language n institutions.
Last evening the s~alesmanship class
put on two demonstration sales by
members Of the class. After each stu
dent had finished his exhibition his
work was thoroughly criticized by the
other members Of the class in accord
ance with the scientific principles
which have been worked out during
the past weeks. The work now being
covered deals with salesmanship anal
ysis and the mental law of sale. The
course is not yet half finished, but a
great deal of profit has already been
secured by the study of h text n
class discussions.

he had weakened under the weight of

TUESDAY, MARCH q, 1918.
A NEW AnMINIsT RATION.

A new administration is now in con-
troll Of the government of these United
States. For the past sixteen years
the republicans have been in power.
Today. in one OF the most sweeping
over-turns in government in the his
tory of the country the democrats
came into power In every department.
1t cannot be denied that the sixteen
years of republican rule have been
prosperous years for the country as a
whole. The country has made ire
mendous advances along every line.
Trade has increased at an astonishing
rate both at home and with foreign
lands. Great undertakings Of both a
public and private nature have been
started and carried through or are
well toward completion. The country
is seemingly at the height of prosper
ity-and yet there is on every hand
discomfort.
The reason for this discomfort is
that the great mass of the people Of
the country feel that they are not get
ting their just share Of this prosper
ity. The wealth that is being accum-
ulated Is being conferred too largely in
the hands Of a Few. This discomfort
has grown until it resulted in the up
heaval Of government that has landed
Woodrow Wilson in the presidents
chair, backed by a democratic con-
gress in both branches.
1t is now "up to them to bring
about a readjustment, that will, while
maintaining the prosperity of the
country as a whole, make for a more
equitable distribution of his prosper
ity. It is a mighty task and yet the
man who is to lead the democrats in
this work of readjustment, goes at it
firm in the belief that he is capable Of
handling the situation.
President Wilson is a very capable
man He has proved this by what he
has done as governor of New Jersey.
He has made a deep study of the eco
nomic problems Of the nation, and
has mapped out a plan of campaign.
In this issue of The Forum will be
found' his inaugural address in full
which should be read by every reader
of The Forum. 1t is remarkably
short-in which Mr.. Wilson smashes
another precedent-but it sums up in
brief terse sentences what Mr.. Wilson
expects to do. 1t is to be hoped that
he will be able to carry out his high
purposes.

ATTACK "RULE OF REASON"

The interstate commerce committee,
in a report to the United States sem
ate, which was written by Senator
Cummins, made an attack on the
rule of reason" decision of the SUI
preme court of the United States,
which has so vitality affected the Sher-
man antitrust law.
This criticism of the courts position
in this matter follows closely the
character of criticism INDUCED in by
Justice Harlan, who, in a minority
opinion, widely differed from the ma
jority, holding that the rule of rea-
son" as applied by his associates on
the bench vas judicial legislation pure
and simple.
The ahlest and at the same time the
severest critic the rule OF reason" de-
cision has yet had was the great 1ur-
list and statesman, Justice Harlan,
who was himself a member of the
court which had rendered the remark

senators, in a thoughtful and matured

erection, making emphatic demands for
amendments to the Sherman law to
remove from the courts the power to
determine what are reasonable" re-
straints of trade.
In commenting upon the decision of
the court In the Standard Oil case. in
which the rule of reason was an
piled. this report says the committee
lis unwilling to repose in that court
or n other court the vast and unde-
fined powers which 1t must exercise
in the administration Of the sta
tutes under the rule which il
has promulgated" that such a
rule Substitutes the court in the
place Of congress, for whenever the
rule is invoked the court does not ad-
minister the law, but makes the law, "
and that "if it continues in force the
federal courts will, in so far as re-
straint Of trade is concerned, make a
common law for the United States
just as the English courts have made
a common law for England"
The report says that it is incon4
ceivable, in q country that is govern
ed by a written constitution and stat
ute law, that the courts can be per
rnittsd to test each restraint of trade
by the economic standard which the
individual members OF the court may
happen to approve.
Here ig i warning, which it would
be well for the greatest court in the
land to heed:
IL we DO not speedily prescribe. in
no far as we can a legislative rule By
which TO measure the form OF contract
or combination in restraint Of trad,
with which we are familiar, or which
we can anticipate. we cease to be /
