One of the most serious economical problems that
demands solution is the problem of unemployment.
There are no reliable statistics concerning the NUM-
Der OF unemployed in this country, but it has been
estimated by conservative economists that a million
workers are constantly seeking employment. Every
winter thousands OF workers flock to the cities and
an oversupply OF labor is the result. Very few labor
ers are able to save enough to carry them through a
period Of enforced idleness. Many become dependent
Oh charity and bread lines to supply their physical
needs. and others become criminals.
Germany, England, New Zealand and Australia
have, in a measure, solved the unemployed problem
by the establishment of national employment bu-
reaus. Some states have operated free employment
agencies in connection with the state department OF
OF labor. Among these are Illinois and Massachu,
sets. The Washington correspondent OF the Boston
Transcript reports that a number Of we'll known econ.
o1nists and social workers are preparing a bill TO
establish Il national employment bureau, which vii!
be introduced either late in the present session or
early in the next, and that Secretary Of Labor Wilson
and Postmaster General Burleson are interested in
the scheme.
The bill proposes to establish Il national employ
n1ent bureau, under the department Of labor. with
The postotiices throughout the country as local employ
ment agencies. If the bill passes and becomes a law
workers seeking positions will be permitted to file at
their local postofhce applications, on prescribed forms,
stating the kind of positions desired, the individual
qualifications, experience and other necessary infor-
nation. Similarly, employers in need of workers will
be allowed to file with the postmaster statements
showing the positions open. These filings will then
be posted on a bulletin board or made public in some
way, 50 tha- the postottice will become a kind of eX-
change for information for those desiring jobs and
those needing workers. If at the end of twenty-four
hours a workers application has not secured him a
position in the local labor field, his application will
be forwarded to another postotice, designated as the
Central Labor Exchange" for his district, there
posted, and sent out to all the postofices in the dis.
trict. At the end of a week, if the application has
still been unsuccessful. it will go to a still larger
office, and from there, after a specified time, to the
National Labor exchange at Washington, which under
the proposed plan will publish a weekly bulletin show
ing all applications for jobs and all positions open.
The proposition commends itself as a worthy one.
In North Dakota the problem Of Unemployment is not
one that causes much public concern. But at certain
seasons Of the year laborers are imperatively needed
to help harvest and thresh the crops. Frequently one
section of the state has more labor than 1t needs,
while in another part there Is q scarcity. The pro-
posed plan OF using the ~postofice as an agency where
concerning positions offered and jobs de.

HObSOn, the IyvpD1pSsible

The st. Louis Globe-Dispatch recently said that
Richmond Pearson Hobson, hero of the Merrinlac an
the chautauqua, has repeated upon the floor Of the
House charges he made against his colleague, Oscar
Underwood, leader of the House, during the prelim.
mary senatorial campaign in Alabama.
These are to the effect that Mr.. Underwood is a
tool Of Wall street and OF the whiskey interests.
Mr.. Underwood has replied that if the charges be true
against him they are also true of the democratic
party, thus identifying himself with the party with a
modesty worthy of Mr.. Bryan himself. Mr.. Hobson
gave one specification to sustain his charge, the con-
%tribution made by Thomas Fortune Ryan to the I'm
derwood presidential campaign before the Baltimore
convention. Mr.. Underwood explained that the dona-
tioh>was without any obligation, expressed or implied,
and was, due to the fact that Mr.. Ryan as a southern
er desired to see a southern candidate for president.
While he did not 60 further, he might have shown
that the democratic party was under still greater obi
cations to Mr.. Ryan, for it was he who made to 1t
the princeliest gift in the history OF campaigns. When
the defeat Of Judge Parker became a foregone conclu-
sion, some weeks before the end OF the 1904 campaign.
and the national chairman OF the Democratic commit
tee decided that he must call in al speakers and
abandon all campaign activities for lack OF funds, the
condition was described to Mr.. Ryan. Solely to pre-
vent such a party catastrophe and without the remot-
est hope of electing Judge Parker, whom he had never
favored for standard bearer, MI. Ryan personally
guaranteed all expenses and afterwards paid them.
The fact did not become public until the campaign
probe following the 1912 election. The "angel" Of the
Democratic party sat during Mr.. Bryan's attack on
him IN tie Baltimore convention and opened not his
mouth, nor did any defender arise to tell of his Illus
trious services to the party. -,
That Mr.. Ryan should have made a modest con-
triDution to the campaign fund OF a southerner is not
remarkable. nor does it reflect discredit upon a man
who has been as long in public life as has Mr.. I'm
derwood. His rise has been the result Of long and
faithful work in the, House. While afflicted with the
usual obsessions Of a Democrat, it would be unjust to
charge him with any but honorable and patriotic
motives. The unanimity with which the House re-
pudiated the Hobson charges even as it did the Bryan
charges in 1911 indicates Mr.. Underwood's high per-
sonal standing among those who should know him
best. But has it occurred to Mr.. Hobson that in
assailing Mr.. Underwood as a tool of Wall street and
Of the whiskey interests he is at the same time reflect
ing upon the president, whose sympathy with Mr..
Jrnderwood's senatorial aspirations was so strikingly
demonstrated by inducing Mr.. Clayton to surrender
his ambitions?

Corn at the Exposition

That North Dakota is becoming a land of hogs
ana honlny, and will soon nave spiked her reputation
us such among big agricultural states, has been clear.
~ demonstrated in feature at the Third Industrial
Exposition, which closed in this city last night.
PROBABLY there is no better indicator OF the devel-
opmelt IN corn in this state than the three exhiDi-
tons which have been made in Bismarck.
Two years ago, when the. first industrial exposition
= was held in this city, there was a small exhibit OF
corn. One year ago there was a decided increase,
and this year there is such an abundance of corn thai
it predominates. Everybody talks corn; there is Il
very large display Of it and it seems to be the leading
topic of conversation and discussion.
This is, indeed, a happy condition for North Da-
kota, for no agricultural country can succeed without
corn. Corn means hogs and cattle, and these mean
prosperity. for they are the best mortgage killers in
the world.
What is true OF corn is also true of alfalfa, and
the development of this crop in North Dakota is
nothing short of wonderful. Nearly every farmer Is
experimenting with alfalfa and those who give it
proper attention are being rewarded abundantly.
While the attendance might have been better, YET
the interest has increased until, this year, it is impos.
sible to estimate what the degree of increase is. Not
only did tn masses view the exhibits, but they have
taken time to inspect them, especially corn and
alfalfa. They examined the samples and discussed
the numerous features of interest in the raising of
these two important crops. Everybody is interested
and it is admitted that a new era in agriculture is
about at hand.
If the exposition served no othe: purpose than
that Of interesting the farmers and others OF this
state in these two crops, and advanced their cultiva-
ton in a degree, it certainly has been a success. 1t
has done this, and more. " ~

No college ball at Kansas City this winter. All
because the d~isobliying welfare board barred the
tango. The college ball dances for sweet chariry's
sake, and last year $4,000 was raised. Two other
charity balls will take place at the Hotel Baltimore,
for which the tango is still in favor. "If a rose by
any other name would smell as sweet why not
change and call the dance the bingo, for instance?
Teachers of dancing insist that the real tango is not"
in the very least Objectionable, but that it, in fact,
expresses the very poetry OF motion-and they ought
to know. "
