mits the degradation and filth of the
business. He will complain that
other laws are not enforced. What
an argument! Why enforce any be-
cause some are not complied with?
Why not every man carry q gun and
protect himself as best he may?
Why not dispense with courts Of
law and peace officials? In other
words, why not make believe that
this is Mexico? What does it mean
when a champion of the booze ring
will come out Of his hole and say:
Let q manly man come in a manly
manner to see that all laws be en-
forced. and he will receive Linton's
goodwill. support and sympathy"
Isn't that a strong arrangement of
the duly elected and qualified Of
ficials who swore to enforce those
laws? Isn't it a fine state of affairs
when it Is assumed that man is
supposed to come" from some
where to enforce the laws while the
county pays hundreds OF dollars per
annum for just that thing?
The writer has never been partic-
ularIy sanity and has done little
good in the world perhaps. But as
matter of cold. hard facts he is
tired Of fighting a battle with booze
and blind-piggers to get the pay
ment of the accounts due him. We
have a fine, healthy array of names
of dsad-beats and topers who have
skinned" US while the pigger got
their money. We have seen women
who we're absolutely dependant on
some of these soaks in actual want
and chasing the town over in a
fruitless attempt to round up the
supposed "protector"of their homes.
Leaving out the many arguments of
a moral nature and getting down to
the cold facts of expediency, it is
time that this town. and its neigh
bors. was getting within the law.
The Record man has always been
willing to put his shoulder to the
wheel to help push for his town and
county. He will always do so--even
though by SO doing he plays into
the other fellows hand. And don't
forget that the best service any man
car do his town is to prevent the
corrupting Of it's people through the
wholesale peddling of beer and
whiskey. And the newspaper that
is afraid to strike the nail squareIy
on the head in such campaign is
not worthy the name by which it is
known.
So much for the theory of the
thing. Now for actual conditions:
Whether or no, this town and this
county stands to be purged Of the
illegal traffic. In the process some
will find themselves ground between
the miIl.wheels of justice. So be it.
The IonR-headed man. instead Of
fighting for the thing. is accepting
the situation philosophically and
making the best Of it. Look over
the list of ordinary blind piggers
and see Of what value they are to
any one -even themselves. What
excuse is there for palliating them
and their dirty dens? Sensible and
honest men. irregardless Of their
personal habits. are getting behind
the movement. Emmons county for
one will soon be numbered among
the counties in which the law is re-
spected. 1t will not then be 1eces-
sary for apologies to be Pat forth
when the county is held up to the
view Of the people of the state as
was the case when the Fargo Forum
recently carried legitimate news
story Of the actual facts as they ex-
ist or have existed hereabouts.

A London paper remarks that in view of our own high handed and illegal act in the Trent affair during the civil war. we Americans might consider ourselves estopped from complaining of the com paratively moderate and not illegal British exercise of the right of search and detention in this war.
 That might be sounder argument, but for the omission of an important factor.
 It will be remembered that the British mail steamer Trent was forcibly stopped on the high seas by the Ameri- can war vessel san Jacinto and board ed by an armed party, who seized two passengers, the confederate envoys, Mason and Slidell, who were carried as prisoners to the San Jacinto and thereafter imprisoned in one of the forts in Boston harbor
 Certainly a most high handed act or the part of that blunt sailor, Capt Wilkes, which has had nc parallel as yet in the exercise of the right oi search for contra band in the present war
