ouBLlsHED EVERY WEDNESDAY
TOW. FACTIONS.

TOWN FACTIONS.
Perhaps no other one factor
wiefds so great an influence in
renrding the growth and pros
perisy Of a town as factionalsm.
Ii spreads itself as a palt over
the community life, and under
It's malign influence all progress
wits Ike a peer tree under the
blight. No amount Of energy
aud public spiritedness is SUN
Gent TO survive its depressing
effects.
Take the average town torn
by iactionalism. A measure OF
public improvement is proposed,
Il comes from one of the two
factions. Il really has merit and
would Beneficial to the town.
Does it meet with approval
Yes from that side of the house,
From the Other side: bitter op-
position. Whya No mortal man
can tell. except that it emanated
from the other side. .
There you have the meat in the
coeanut The other side" stands
for evergthing that is undesir-
able and vicious.
And it's a sad commentary on
our boasted Christian civiliza,
ton that this. spirit of bitter
tactionalism too frequently orr
ginases where it should never be
found-in the churches. With
them, all too frequently, ':our
folks does not mean, as 1t
should, all Of Gods creatures,
but IS contracted to apply to
aoar church, 2 be it Methodist,
Baptist. Presbyterian, or what
not.
Again. in many small towns,
this factionalism centers in the
banks. Each has it's following.
Each IS striving not only to
build up its own fortunes but to
tear down the other.
But from whatever source,
the fact remains, and the faction
alism fourishes. a sad commen-
tary on the boasted progress
iVeness, of our countrymen.
And the pity of it is tnat 1t IS
all useless and fruitful OF no
good results to either side.
United effort would invariably
conplish for both what divid-
ed wrangling accomplishes for
neither.
There is a world of truth in
the old emblem of the bundle OF
sucks, bound together, which
no man could break, but which,
taken separately, a child could
destroy.
No factional fight in a COM
munity ever yet resulted in COM
plete victory for either side.
Many communities have had
ane sagacity to reorganize this
fact and, while there have al
ways been aud will always be
differences, have had the good
sense to endeavor to harmonic
and work together for the com
mon interest.
When we see community
torn by factions, we feel like
reminding it of the old fable of
the cats and the. monkey. The
cats found the cheese, but the
monkey ate it at last.

DR.. HARRIS TO PREACH
ANNIVERSARY SERMON
Has Been With Local First Pres
byterian Church for Ten
Years.

Sunday Rev. G.. W. Harris will
preach sermons appropriate to the
close Of ten years, pastorate in the
Presbyterian church Of this city.
Probably no Presbyterian church in
the state has had a pastor who has
remained quite SO long, though
Grand Forks, where the pastor, Rev.
w. H. Matthews, celebrated the ninth
anniversary this fall, and jamestown,
where Rev. G. w. Simon will com
plete ten years pastorate next
spring, are close rivals. AS rule,
however pastorates in the west are
short and DR.. Harris long pastorate
is the exception.
w. L. Miller will sing at the morn
ing service and Paul Graham will
play a violin solo in the evening.
There will also be other musical
numbers.
Plans have been laid for a recep-
ton TO be given Dr. and Mrs. Harris
on Monday evening in the church par
lors. A program has been prepared
and an informal good time is atici
pated by the friends->Gf the pastor
and his wife. All the churches are
most cordially invited

to its nature.
Foreign Office Prevails.
One Of the features of the case,
which has attracted wide attention in
ofncial and diplomatic quarters is
the apparent similarity Of the pro-
ceedings in the Ancona with those
in the Lusitana controversy. In both
cases, observers noted that the for
eign Office views finally prevailed
over those of the admiralty, which
in both cases was hostile to the
United States.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, conferred with Secre-
tary Lansing today on the Lusitania
case, and it was said that while no
communications were passed, views
were exchanged and pit was indicated
that the promised settlement is not
fjr off. The ambassador let it be
known that he considered the Aus
TRAN reply complete compliance
with the demand OF tie United States.
