THE AMERICAN WAY.

In the name of American business
the representatives at the recent war
convention held under the auspices of
the chamber of commerce of the Unit
ed States assured Uncle Sam he could
have them, their industries, their good
will and all the rest of their posses
sions on his own terms and conditions
They went step further and de
clared themselves in favor of price
fixing by the government not only for
its own needs, but also for the pub
lie, and for government control of dis
tribution, in accordance with whatever
need may develop.
They gave pledge that there would
be no unsettlement of labor condi
lions on their part for the duration OF
the war In return, they asked for a
truce by labor, so that the necessary
war work could be speedily accomp.
lished, and for arbitration by the gov
eminent in any cases where disputes
might arise.
This is progress.

particularly to Germany that we are

obstacles in the path Of the govern

obstacles in the path Of the govern
ment
In times past 1t has often been said,
and often with justice, that business
is utterly selfish, utterly callous to the
national needs, only occupied with the
chase of the immediate dollar. But
over night business has very largely
gone democratic.
The business man realizes, as the
laboring man does, as the farmer does,
as all of us do, that unless we all
put our shoulders to the wheel and
do all we can to win this War-our
business, our labor, our farms won't
be worth very much. If we lose this
war the kaiser will have war mort
gage in every business, every pay en-
velope, every farm in the land.
This is no idle dream, no scare
story. When Germany conquered
France in 1870 the Prussians not only
took the rich territories of Alsace Lor-
raine, but they imposed staggering
war indemnity and kept soldiers on
French soil until the last penny of it
was paid over.
Our hard-headed business men are
not keen for this to happen. They
promise 10 do their part. That Is the
American way. They will be initiated
bv all other real Americans.

The United States senate is still
being bombarded with memorials de-
handing the expulsion from that body
of Senator Pobert NJ. La Toilette OF
Wisconsin.
Does any one recall that memorial,
protest or anything of the kind has
come from any quarter of the Nonpar-
tisan league? The query is pertinent
because the master spirit of the
league, after assuring the country that
no seditious talk would be permitted
at the conference in St. Paul, sat by

himself of speech that has been

ing the army Of protest and denuncia'

the league need not consider it yet too
late to speak it's mind.
AS the Fargo Courier-News, official
organ of the league, still adverts to
La Toilette as lone Of the bravest
champions of the common good" it
may be too much to expect it to smile
upon the suggestion of a formal pro-
test or memorial to the senate. How
ever, isn't 1t possible that the Courier
News is not at present rejecting the
sentiment of the rank and file of the
league? That is something the gen
eral public in the northwest would
like to have cleared up.

The real purpose Of the second con-

though not word was said about that

taken of the evidence, the change was
made by gross and manifest, decep-

Governor Bilbo of Mississippi, real

to give every Mississippian abroad, in

Bilbo is not going to let the Varda-

Every American state should adopt
similar legislation. Only the states
can do it, as congress has nothing
to do with franchise rights. At the
sametime congress has no power to
postpone elections until after the war
and the return of the soldiers, as has
been done in France and England.
