In the proposal of Senator Cham
berlain to have the government con-
struct a marginal highway along the
seacoast of the United States is an
official substantiation of the belief
that the Saxon Motor Car Corpora
ton had in the ACCESSIBILITY of such a
highway and which led it to send a
Saxon roadster to blaze the trail for
a national boundary road. Senator
Chamberlain's bill, which calls for q
military marginal highway, as neal
as practical to the seacoast line of the
Atlantic and Pacific and along the
Mexican border with the construction
of a similar highway on the Canadian
frontier in future times, is the exact
plan if the National Boundary High
way, which the Saxon roadster is now
making. It was the intention of the
trail blazer to offer the data that is
being compiled from the boundary
trip to the government-even before
the senate military affairs committee
introduced it's marginal road bill,
Now this information will be turned
over to the authorities with the idea
Of giving them every assistance pos
sible in the selection of the route for
the governmental project. At present
the Saxon trail blazer is somewhere
beyond Seattle, probably starting east
ward. The trip to date has covered
all of the territory proposed in the
bill with the exception of that por-
ton Of the Atlantic coast between
the tip Of Maine and Chesapeake bay.

STORAGE FOR FARMS
is SUGGESTION MADE

That farmers may benefit from their
crops this season, as well as aid the
public, they are being urged to pro-
vide their own storage facilities be-
fore the coming crops are ready for
market. J. B. Baird, General Traffic
Manager of the Northern Pacific Rail-
way, has sent an appeal to farmers
along it's lines to build granaries for
the protection of grains.
"With increased demands made on
TRANSPORTATION incident to the war;"
Mr.. Baird says, ian acute car short
age may result at a period when the
CROP movement is heaviest. By hav-
ing sufficient storage capacity on their
farms to house grains, under such
conditions, farmers need have no
cause for worry.
"It would seem a matter of economy
to equip their own farms with ample
capacity so that if the elevators at
local markets are o~vercrowded pro-
ducts can be stored until such con-
gestion, in case it does occur, is re-
lieved. Likewise, it will remove the
menace of grain deterioration and
loss of millions Of bushels.
"Farmers in the Northwest grain
growing states can perform a service
both to themselves and to the nation
at large by taking steps to construct
such storage before they become en-
gagged in harvesting and threshing
crops"

YOUNG COUPLE WE'D
AT BEIDLER HOME

A very quiet wedding took place at
the home of the BRIDES uncle and
aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Beidler, on
Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock, when
Miss Marian E. Howe and julius q.
LAUDER were united in marriage by the
brides grandfather, Justice A. P:
Folsom. Ferdinand Massarek and
Mrs. Gunder O. Sander, superintend-
ent Of Dunn county schools, acted as
witnesses to the ceremony. .
Mrs. LAUDER grew up to young
womanhood in this city, having re-
sided most of the time with her
grandfather, Mr.. Folsom. She is q
daughter of W. B. Howe, formerly OF
Dickinson, but now located at Nc
Laughlin, S. D. After graduating
from the Dickinson high school she
held for three years a position in the
Office of the register of deeds OF Stark
county. For a time she resided on a
homestead near Hettinger, but OF late
had been engaged in an abstract Of
flee at Manning, She is a very efici-
ent little business woman and also
holds a high place in social circles.
MI. LAUDER has been out in this
section of the country about nine
years, having previously resided in
Switzerland, France and England. He
is a man. of experience and well-read.
He left the Manning vicinity recently
to take up a homestead near Malta,
Mont, where the young couple will re-
side, leaving Dickinson for that point
on Wednesday evening.
The newly-weds have the best
wishes Of their many friends in Dick
inson and vicinity as well as Of those
in Dunn county.

THE BUSINESS STACKER.

Under the heading, "Keep Business
Moving" the Cherry Circle, published
at Cedar Rapids, Ia, has the follow
ing snappy comment on the business
Stacker:
The business Stacker, here at home,
is our one real enemy in these excit'
ing times. Far more of an enemy
than the Kaiser, because the Kaiser
cannot get at us.
If you cannot thrust the bayonet
you can at least drive your business
harder than you have ever driven it
before and thus help create the i'm
perative prosperity with which alone
this war can be won.
Don't be a business Stacker. Even
if America desired hard times the
world would refuse her the wish. We
have been conscripted as the worlds
kitchen-the worlds shipyard-the
worlds bank-the worlds general
business manager. America is bound
to be prosperous. That's her part in
the war. Some one must keep
wealthy enough to meet this wars
payroll. That's our job. AS a result
a great mass of men, women and chill
dren in this country can no more
avoid getting money out of this
present emergency than a lily in the
rain can avoid getting wet.
Get these facts through your head,
for they are the only true facts on
which you can base your business
plans.
America has taken what amounts to
a seven billion dollar order.
And, mind you, this is only the first
of many such orders. Seven thousand
million dollars worth of shoes-canned
goods - harness. motor trucks-au-
tomobiles- ships blankets butter
CLOTHES guns munitions, must be
manufactured and delivered. Who
gets this seven billion? If you were
a merchant every customer on your
books would get a piece of it. AS
you are a manufacturer, you yourself
will get your part of it.
There must not be any non-pro-
ductive labor or capital in this coun-
try. Everybody must produce. This
means that everybody must be on
somebody's pay roll.
For at least three years America
cannot avoid being the most pros
porous nation the world has ever
seen and the best part of this is
that Americas wealth is about to be
re-distributed and put into the hands
of our people-not in the hands OF
the boarding few.
Meanwhile, remember that the man
who allows fear to paralyze the hand
he writes the checks with is as danger
Gus to his country as the deliberate
crank who throws a bomb.
Keep business moving.

SHERIFF STILL HUNTS
FOR STOLEN CHICKS

Sheriff Hartung and Attorney Nc
Bride are both on a still hunt for the
party who relieved them of the re-
s%ponsibility and are of raising some
zoo young full blood chickens by re-
moving them from the brooder at MI.
McBride's residence, but without sue
cess. The thief evidently is some
what of a chicken fancier himself and
will care for the little ones at least
until they reach the springer" age.
Every community harbors some pretty
lowdown specimens Of humanity, and
this community is no exception to the
rule as evidenced by this latest thieve-
nv. A reward of $40 is offered for
the arrest and conviction of the thief.

WAR WILL HAVE ITS WAY.

We have a lot to learn in this war.
The control of the news which
people read is merely a start in the
program of winning the war. 1t will
become necessary to control labor, TO
apportion raw materials, to distribute
products and to prevent waste. All
these things the government will do
in the course of time.
In Great Britain all these things
have been done. Fortunately, ovec
there the will Of Parliament is su-
preme, there is no constitution to
hinder the effect of what the law
makers have the courage to pass. In
America the case is different, our
constitution will come between the
government and its successful, eff
Gent prosecution of the war. There
can be little doubt but that all the
things enumerated above will be done,
but they have to be done without the
shadow Of legality and in the shade Of
S1oioI1llS NuI leVcleu COIlSllLuIlol.
The government of America is not
framed for the fighting Of a modern
a The states have power, which
they use differently, and pass widely
divergent laws upon the same subject.
1t will become necessary before the
war is won to supplant much of the
power of the state by the authority
of the federal government in order to
secure uniformity. The point is not
whether We like it, for whether we
wish it Or net, the government must
establish its control over every phase
of industrial life in order to wage war
efficiently, and at present, efficient
war-making is the sole idea behind
our government and it's officers.
The drafting of a million men for
the army will more than disrupt the
ranks of labor. Substitutes for men
must be found. There are only two
sources from which to expect aid, ma
chinery and women. Already there is
talk of female street car conductors,
elevator "boys," street cleaners, and
agricultural workers. The thing will
come to pass. Women will learn to
work and their work will ease the
strain which will be felt when hun
dreds of thousands of working men
are taken into the line of battle.
The use of machinery will also help
replace the men who go forth. Long
er hours for the laborers will make
four men do the previous work of
five. The hard-earned victories of
the laboring classes will be Suspend
ed" for the duration of the war, al
though there is a commendable tend
ency on the part of officials to do
what they can to prevent this. The
country will have to reshape it's entire
Industrial life. The present mode is
passing away, and no one has the in
telligence to perceive what the future
will produce.
The free America which has ex-
listed up to this time is in a state of
The Dickinson press., 1917-07-21

coma. Our freedom has been chloro-
formed, as it were, in order to make
the world safe for democracy, by re-
moving from its surface, the cancer
Gus growth of militarism. Whether
the subject, suffering America, will re-
gain it's normal consciousness after
the operation has been performed, is a
question which the doctors can
answer, but one to which the rela-
tives, the people, have no clue.
