IGNORANCE OR DECEPTION.

While it is good policy to let the
dead past bury its dead, the New
Rockford Capital INDUCES in certain
post norton statements that really
call for comment. In a recent issue,
history is thus twisted to bolster a
dead cause:
considering the merit Of the ques-
ton, the fact that the capital was
located at Bismarck by commission
and not by a vote of the people, and
realizing that this city has made a
desperate, honest effort to secure an
expression Of the voters on the prop
OsitiOn at the coming election, and
that the failure Of previous legislat
ures to enact law putting the ref
erendum by petition into action, de-
prived us of the right to have the
question on the ballot at the coming
election, after an expense of thous-
ands Of dollars, can any member OF
the legislature, with the fear Of God
in his heart, and his oath of Office
warm upon his lips refuse to support
such concurrent resolution"
The capital of Dakota Territory
was moved from Yankton to Bis
marck by a commission.
But the Capital of North Dakota
was located at Bismarck BY A VOTE
OF THE PEOPLE, just as the Uni
versity was located at Grand Forks
and the Agricultural College at Far
go.

FOOLISH SLOGAN.

Colonel George Harvey Of the
North American Review, a lifelong
Democrat and the man who discover.
ed Woodrow Wilson, has no symDa-
thy with the Democratic slogan: "He
Kept Us Out of War;" In a recent
article he clearly shows who kept us
out of war. Here is his explanation:
1T is not the President who has
kept us out of war with Germany.
1t is the Kaiser Mr.. Wilson's notes
have been truculent enough to make
for war over and over again, but Ger,
many has averted conflict at each
psychological moment out of consid.
GRAFTON of her own welfare, not as a
!, consequence OF any of the many
things the. President has written. And
she has done ittin her own sweet way
at her own chosen time. Personally
] do not believe that we have been
in danger of war at any stage. No.
body could afford to drag us in and
nobody has done so. That is all there
is of it. If we had convinced all war
ring powers at the outset that we
really meant to maintain our rights
as a neutral, we would have obtained
them beyond the shadow of a doubt
But our shillyshallying with Mexico
had indicated all too plainly that they
could play fast and loose with us with
impunity. And they have done it.

HUMILITY!

"The years which have spent in
the United States Senate have taught
me, at least, humility These are
the Introductory words of the accept
ance speech of Vice President Tho
mas r. Marshall.
Humility seems to be the chief
characteristic of the Wilson admins
tration.
But Mr.. Marshall is franker in his
address than President Wilson in as
cribing the reasons for Democratic
success four years ago. His chief
at Shadow Lawn declared that the
failure of the Republican party tc
sense public demands brought about
its defeat. Mr.. Marshall candidly ad
mits that the political upheaval" Of
1912 resulted lin the election Of
Woodrow Wilson to the Presidency
MIR. Marshalls oratory is always bi
zarre. His acceptance speech is full
of flippancy, shallow and, at times
ridiculously trivial. Here is one O.
the gems:
"You cannot interest bridegroom
in the tariff, nor a widow in the cot
fin trust"
Fine words from the second high
est official of the Republic!
There is a sophomore optimism
in this:
'"The honest business man no long
er breads a panic, nor doubts Will
good security his credit will remain
indefinitely unimpaired.'

STOLEN AUTO IS g..
AGAIN RECOVERED

Cando, N. D., Sept. 14.-Some par
ty or parties stole Emil Plath's Ford
auto from his shed at Maza, and
made their getaway. Sheriff James
Taylor was notified as soon as the
theft was discovered, and Immediate
ly started action by sending out pos
tai tracers in every direction, but be-
fore these had reached their several
destinations the sheriff received a
wire message from Tom Hall, secre-
tary Of state, that he had been mott
fed by the city marshal of Halstad,
Mimi, that the car carrying Mr..
Plath's license number was in a gar
age at that place. and asking for in
formation as to the owner. Mr.. Tay-
lor at once got into communication
with the authorities at Halstad with
a view to experimenting and holding
the thieves. He was informed that
three men were being held under ar
rest there, and started on the noon
train, to be met at Maza by Mr.. Plath
to bring the. car back along with the
thieves.

BISMARCK

Warda Howard, whose last notable
film work was in "The Raven" with
Henry B. Walthall, takes the chief
role in "The Sort" new 5-act Essa-
nay feature play.
Miss Howard rises to the heights
of emotional acting in the new play
which is intensely dramatic through
out and calls for a concentration that
is unusual.
The supreme moment arises in one
of the final scenes where the woman,
notorious character. is called upon
to give up her daughter in order to
save her from the shame of her name.
She has just found her daughter af-
ter years of separation, and although
the girl does not know the woman is
her mother, has drawn toward her
with an instinctiveness that has won
the mothers heart.
The crisis comes and she knows
she must never see her again nor re-
veal her identity if she would save
the girl from misery. She makes the
supreme sacrifice of motherhood.
This calls for an emotionalism on
the part of the actress that few could
portray naturally. Miss Howard
brings out all the intense agony of a
mother robbed of her child in a way
that strikes straight to the herat, and
yet does it with a repression that
keeps the scene away from melo-
drama and lifts it into the plain of
art.
Miss Howard is ably supported by
Duncan McRae. Ernest Maupin and
John LorenZ. At the Bismarck today
