VOTE FOR

On the seventh day of next month
the people of this state will have an
opportunity to express their choice
at the polls Of the man to represent
them in the United States senate.
This is the most important position
within the gift of the voters of North
Dakota. Senator Porter j. McCumb-
er, who is the republican candidate for
reelection, has the mature experience
that comes with long service. He
knows the ms and outs Of the national
scnate-he is a man whose word goes
a long ways in that august body and
to whom they all listen with Difference
and interest. With q republican adj
ministration soon coming into power
again, it behooves every republican
voter to vote the ticket straight, es-
pecia1Iy in regard to the United
States senate. Let we'll enough alone
and r~e-elect McCumber, the man who
has proven himself at all times a true
representative of the people of his
state.

held abroad to the amount of over
$751; 100000 In the year ended
July 31st, 1916, they have taken over
$8O7,881,666 of railroad securities
alone, thereby reducing foreign hold
ings to less than 81, 800, 0O0, 900. Alb
sorption of foreign holdings still con-
tinues with the prospect that with the
end of this year Europe will have re-
turned to America over $4,000, 900 900
worth of American bonds and stocks.
Such absorption of securities not
only eliminates this country from
among debtor nations but also places
wholly within American control pub

ownership of which experience is fast

country. AS these immense financial
transactions have taken place with

1t seems but yesterday that the
the section of the state lying west Of
the Missouri was regarded as a bar
rem waste, a country of sage brush
and coyotes and buttes, in fact a veri-
table bad land. Even many who had
lived. there for decades did not COM
prehend the possibilities and thought
that the greater portion of the slope
country was good for little else than
grazing ground.
Fifteen years ago land was trans
ferred in the Slope country for 81 or
$3 or S. an acre which is today worth
$2O to $50 an acre, and would be a
bargain. at the latter price.
1t is now recognized that there is
no better farming country "lying out
doors" than the great stretches of
fine land known as the Missouri
Slope and the country has come into
it's own. Railroads have been built
into all sections of this big "Slope
country settlers have simply focked
onto the land, new cities have sprung
up like magic and the whole Slope is
teemlng with industry and throbbing
with life.
It is now claimed that the Slope
country has one-sixth of the popula-
ton OF the state, pays one-tenth of
the assessed valuation and yet, in all
this great section of the state, there
IS not a single state educational in
situation. There is, not a state school
OF any kind for higher education west
OF the Missouri river in North Da-
kota.
The Forum. does not believe that.
the people of. the eastern half of the
state mean to be unfair. If they
have been Indifferent to the demands
OF the W western section, it is
because they did not realize the JUS
tlce and fairness of these demands.

BORDER EXPERIENCE

American troops on the Mexican
border r there for a two-fold pur.
pose-First, to protect this country
from raids by Mexican marauders;
and second, to get experience that will
fit them for efficient military service.
So far they have not had much to do
with Mexican BANDITS, but have had
considerable experience in actual con-
ditions dependent upon hostilities.
The $4,000 National Guardsmen down
or the Rio Grande are today, in con-
sequence of three months acquaint-
anceship with military requirements,
better soldiers than when they went
there, and q great many of them are
better men, they having been de-
vclopcd both mentally and physically.
Border experience has been valuable
to the men and may some time be
valuable to the nation.
The Secretary Of War recently or
dered troops from several states to
return home, supplying theis places
with guardsmcn from other states not
yet sent to the border. Troop trains
are en- route north and soon will re-
turn loaded with recruits. The worl:
of the great training camp will be
continued until the guardsmen of az
states have seen service sufficient 10
qualify them for actual fighting.
When the last trains of seasoned SOL
diers shall return north, the public
will have full opportunity to count the
gain to the nation, expressed in
125, 900 seasoned men available for
the defense of the country. The mil
lions spent may in the end be mil
lions saved.

ARTHUR BRISBANE AND TE-
DIOUS LIARS. - Swinging around
the circle a few weeks ago, Woodrow
Wilson let out one honest-to-GOd
speech that had a real point to it. He
talked about tedious liars"
There are Iong-distance liars, cir
cUitOus liars, making their real aims
under a fog of exterior purposes.
They waste the time. They have the
liars habit and before they get down
to telling what they want they must
tell a mass of fabrications and
pseudo-tTuths. Tedious liars" block

feel sort of mussed up men
tally and filled with conflicting
thoughts" to borrow a phrase from
Jack Lait, when l look at some of the
gOings-On in our nation and city.
Here's Arthur Brisbane, for instance,
the Hearst editorial star, writing two
columns of advice to young men on
saving money.
It's a good thing to save money,
says Brisbane. Look out how you
spend your wages or you'll go to the
poorhOuse, says Brisbane. Cultivate
self-control by acquiring the ecOno-
my habit, says Brisbane.
Here we have a man whose salary
is over $1,000 a week, known as a
spender who sings money right and
left, has dozens of shirts in his ward
robe, lives in a big house with men
servants to tend his laundry and feel
of the water before he takes his bath.
And this guy writes tWo-columl
