The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1917-05-05
GIVE NEW DULUTH JUSTICE.

l uC 4eAp-SoW OCAACSCS tAoe Avn"
Duluth soon will get an extern
sion Of the street car system and
become an actual part Of this
grand city.
While the Rip-saw fully under
stands the desirability of a uni
versal Scent fare in the city, it
more strongly believes that no
bitter, extreme fight should be
permitted to hazard the hopes
and welfare of nearly 5000 peo-
pie, now cut off from the re-
mainder of the city and penalized
heavily everytime they visit the
other sections.
The Rip-saw firmly believes
that the Duluth Street Railway
will not maliciously or cold
bloodedly deny New Duluth
street car service. But to any
one who knows that corporation
and it's very conservative man
agement, it is unlikely that
pounding and abuse will secure
a single bit of consideration.
Calm, sober, dignified attitudes
by New Duluth, the city of Du-
luth, the Duluth Street Railway
Comnany and even the Duluth
papers, promise the most for re-
suits.
In principle, all of us believe
in and desire universal fare OF
5 cents. But even the best OF us
cannot always have what we
want. Life is one compromise
after another, if ruthlessness is
not practiced by one side or the
other. If any ruthlessness occurs
in this case, far better be it by
the street car company than by
the people, speaking from the
standpoint of sane and fair-mind-
ed citizens.
The city commissioners desire
no expensive litigation. The peo-
pie of New Duluth dearly desire
street car service. The street car
company wants business and rea-
sonable profits. Let the extern
sfor be quickly made, limit set
on the time for charging double
fares and then let us resume some
of the really big tasks started
but now half-finished.
Mr.. Hartley says that the TO-
cent fare makes it impossible for
anyone outside the scent zone to
work at the steel plant. That is
true but those who work there
do not wish to live outside the D.
cent zone because they do not
wish to waste two hours daily on
the street car trips. Men, with a
few exceptions, who work at the
steel plant, must live reasonably
close. Those exceptions, as rule,
have automobiles and can use
them.
The public knew that the News
Tribune and Herald could not
pull long together in the street
car extension matter: Already,
the morning paper has turned
down the evening papers prop
osition for a Scent fare in the
central part of the city and, al.
ready, the Herald has dropped
the whole dispute. The News
Tribune demands full credit for
starting the rumpus and the Her
aid has no stomach tor seconding
any motions of its competitor.

The New Code and Education

their duty by their children, it only
remains for the State to provide them
with the means of giving their chill
dren an adequate education.
This is all that Catholics at any
rate ask of the State. They ask for a
fair share of the public money which
is devoted to education. The State
may, of course, see that it gets good
value for the money that is provided.
If it were satisfied with fulfilling these
legitimate functions, the education
question would be solved as far as
Catholics are concerned. The State
would have no reason to mistrust or
complain of it's Catholic subjects.
They have shown in the great war
that they yield in patriotism to none,
and that they are fully ready to take
their share in the common burdens.
The Catholic ideal is that parents,
Church, and State should Loyalty work
together to give such an education to
the young that when they come to
maturity they may be fitted to take
their place in the national life, lead
good, decent, and useful lives, and
save their souls in the end.

COURT AFFlRMs CONVICTION OF
ANTEcATHoLIC AGiTAToR.

1T is to be regretted that the statute
does not prescribe Imprisonment in
the penitentiary as the punishment
for this class of crime we're the
words used by Justice Armstrong, of
the Oklahoma Court of Appeals, in a
recent decision, affirming the co1yic-
ton of Roy Crane for criminal libel
Crane, who has long been known as
an antiICatholic agitator. had written
a book which contained the time.worn
calumnies usually aimed at the Cath
olic Church by criminal vilifiers of his
kind. He reprinted the horrible bogus
oath, declaring it to be the .one taken
by the fourth degree knights of Co
lumbus, and to his vile production
made affidavit brazenly declaring that
every word in this book lis given I'M
der sworn affidavit and of itself
establishes beyond a reasonable doubt
that the books contents are true and
correct" ~. at4
Crane published his scurrilous libels
with audacity, trusting for safety in
1.-THE fact that he had not mentioned
the names of any individual Catholic
or knight of Columbus. 1t was an
artifice often used to shield criminals
of his type from the clutches of the
law. But it failed, and he must pay
the penalty.

HELP BY SAVINGS
THE WAR-SAvINGS PLAN IN
BRIEF.

The war-savings plan provided fol
in the bond act of September. "a, 1907
goes into operation Monday, December
3. Government certificates of indebt
edness are to be sold in two denomi
nations-thrift stamps costing 25
cents each and war-savings stamps
costing from SAP to $423, according
to date of purchase.
When 81 worth of thrift stamps
are obtained a war-savings stamp can
be secured in exchange for them by
paying the difference between 81 and
the current price of the war-savings
stamp.
War-savings stamps can be pur-
chased for $4.12 during the months
of December, 1917, and January, 1918,
but will cost l cent more for each
succeeding month in the year 1918.
They are redeemable on January /,
1928, for S., which amounts to per
cent on the amount invested com
pounded quarterly
Although these investments do not
mature until January l, 1923, on 10
days written notice after January 1,
1918, such certificates will be re-
deemed by postmasters at their cost
to the purchaser plus / cent a month
on each war-savings stamp. The
thrift stamps do not bear interest.
The stamps and certificates can be
obtained from post Offices, banks, or
trust companies, at most railroad sta
lions, stores, factories, and many other
public places.

The Itch for Concessions
Christian Pacifists.

In other words, these prominent
Catholics men and women afflicted
with the itch for concessions" exem-
p1ify in the religious sphere, all the
despicable qualities of the "pacifist'
who, to protect his miserable life and
his more miserable possessions,
sneers at the men who are willing to
give UP all they have in this our just
war against oppression. With them,

despicable peace, bought even at the
price of receiving in silence the low
est calumnies against the Church and
her institutions. IDENTIFIES structures

our own country. Hermann of Mar.
burg, writes the Dominican, may
speak of Catholicism as "a degenerate

of leading millions, into moral ruin;

society,"
No man of common-sense will deny
that there is a time for silence as
we'll as for speech; that prudence is
great virtue, and federation the fine
flower of charity.
Let us have cooperation, by al
means, and as much love, too, as may

Luther's Safe Cure

On the occasion of the 4O0th ami
versary of the Reformation, the Ger
man Evangelical League launches
from Wittenberg manifesto in
which the militant sayings of Martin
Luther are applied at random to pres
ent-day events. The manifesto rejects
pacifism and thunders against the
Pope's peace proposals as being in
vested with no religious authority
The manifesto concludes:
I'VE especially warn against the
heresy promulgated from America
that Christianity enjoins democratic
institutions and that they are an es-
sential condition for the establish
ment of the kingdom of God on earth.

INSURANCE FOR ENLISTED MEN

hundreds of thousands of our soldiers
and sailors who are making the SUI
preme sacrifice: Under this law,
every soldier and sailor and nurse,
commissioned and enlisted, and of any
age, has the right, between now and
February IL, 1918, to take out life
and total-disability insurance UP to
$4,000 at very low cost, with the
Government without medical eXamina-
ton. This right is purely optional.
The soldiers and sailors are not COM
PEELED to take insurance, but if they
desire to exercise the right, they
must do so before the 18th Of Febrll-
airy, 1918. The cost ranges from 65
cents monthly, at the age of FL, to
$1.20 monthly, at the age of 81, for
each $1,000 of insurance. This is a
small charge on a mans pay-small
Id proportion to the benefits it may
bring. The premiums will be deduct
ed from his pay, if he desires, thus
eliminating trouble on his part.
To provide adequate protection un-
til February IL, 1918, during the period
when the soldiers and sailors are
learning the details of this law, the
Government automatically insures
