pie having to serve three tables.

happy vein. and made hit with the

Better Relations. -...

city. was invited to make a short talk
giving some reminders OF the old days
when he settled on q claim north of
Hope in 1881, and telling the new set
tiers something Of the future of North
Dakota. Altogether it was an excep-
tionally pleasant affair and seemed to
be enjoyed by all immensely. and
many spoke of it as something that
ought to be followed up. and it was
the general opinion that 1t was the
beginning Of still better relations in
this community and something that
ought to be practiced in every COM
munity.
Hanna Is Speaker.
The evening was taken up with an
old settlers gathering under the title
of a Landmarks Meeting. at which
Mr.. Hanna was the principal
speaker. the evening being taken up
with "reminiscences Of olden times. pic
lures Of old settlers, letters from
absent early settlers, and many things
that marked the thirty-six years
Of history that has been made
in this county. The program
who gave the address of welcome ana
the credit is largely due her for the
great success Of the gathering which
was under the auspices OF the Wom-
ans club. The operahouse was far too
small to hold those who wished to at
tend, and some fifty were turned away,
unable to get in.
Altogether between the two gather
ings it Was a day long to be remem-
bered in Hope and 1t is hoped marks
q new day in the making Of communi-
ty spirit in North Dakota. --@sza

This seems to be the perfect answer to

anyone guilty of treachery to America
Ordinarily this is not country that
asks much of it's people. It offers them so
much and requires SO little. It encourages
the development of their own individuality

prosper. It plans no oppression. It's states
men do not spend their nights and days
dreaming of the robbery of their neighbor
states. 1t does not devote thought to war
making.
We are in the war not because we love
war or glory in it or hope to gain by it, but
because we could not retain our self-respect,
our independece and our liberty if we re-
NAMED passive. This being SO, it is the
bounden duty Of every man, woman and

do his best to make America efficient in this

WHO GOT THE MONEY?

Now that Bernstorff is exposed in his
true colors, and the many who believed
him Better than his government" are I'M
deceived, it would be interesting to know
who got the vast sums of money which he
spent in this country to promote Germany's
insidious propaganda.
Proof of Bernstoffs guilt is not SUR
prising, as he could not occupy hiss high
diplomatic station unless imbued with Ger
man kultur, and the Hottest ideals of that
ku1tur convert into a virtue any crime COM
mitted for Germany. The more fragrant
the crime, the greater the virtue.
But the extent of his operations are as
founding. That he could have traffcked
in the destruction of lives and property,
fomented revolution in Ireland, brbed
writers and lecturers, engaged in the man
ufacture of bombs, financed propaganda
of discord and disloyalty throughout the
United States, fomented i'll will against
this country in Mexico and maintained an
elaborate spy system without detection,
seems impossible.
Dastard1y as his action was in secretly
carrying on war against this country while
enjoying immunity as the official represen-
tative of a supposedly friendly power, it
does not compare with the vile treachery
of any American-natural-bo or natural
ized-who may have been his willing tool,
for price.
Representative Hefin says he can name
fourteen congressman who have acted in a
manner to arouse suspicious that they got
part of the $50 900 which Bernstorff asked
permission to spend in influencing con-
gress There are ugly rumors regarding
certain senators as we'll. Congress should

EVERYTHING ON
WHEELS BE TAXED

Everything on wheels appear to be
in line for taxation in the ordinance
witch was introduced yesterday. and
which was advanced to second read
ing. Bicycles, tricycles, trailers,
autos, drays, trucks, etc, are all sub
jected to tax, and it is said that this
is the most drastic and far-"eaching
measure of the kind considered lately
by the commissioners.
This law is projected, it is said, to
care for license tax usually derived
from autos, but which, under a recent
state act, the city cannot now impose.
Should the law be declared unconsti-
tutional, there is a provision for re-
funding collected license taxes under
authority of this newly-proposed or
dinance
