Fraternity Politics At ~
University Breaks Chance
For Winning Football Team

The miserable showing OF the Uni
versity of North Dakota footbaipteam
in Fargo last Saturday afternoon,
when one of the finest looking aggre-
cations of young men went down to
defeat before the lighter agricultural
college team, must be laid directly to
the influence of fraternities in the
state institution.
That is the 'inside dope" on the
university football situation, as set
forth by several university alumni
keenly interested in seeing the insti-
tuition put a winner on the field.
For a long time, followers of the
university's fortunes in the athletic
world have been wondering at its in
ability to produce a winner on the
gridiron. The past three or four years
have seen the production of some
good football teams, 1t is true, but the
punch has been lacking.

LincoIn's memorable debate with
Douglas, which precipitated the Civil
war by showing exactly where the

successful, stood with regard to the
absorbing questions of slavery and
states rights, is among the numerous
historical incidents wildly portrayed
in The Crisis, which the Sherman
Elliott company. will present at the
Orpheum theater for a week. start
ing Nov. IL.
The debate is set in the picturesque
backwoods of the Illinois period,
with torchlight professions, bonfires
and the fanfare OF rude trumpets
and drums.
Abraham Lincoln. an essential
character in the romance of The
Crisis, is introduced frequently
throughout the course Of the story,
and is a central figure in the plot as
well as in the historical background
It is he who reunttes the lovers aft
er years Of separation in the discords
of hate and strife that attended the
long war. The hero is a Yankee"
and the girl Rebel, and they were
originally thrown together at a slave
auction in the border city of ST.
Louis. The slave auction is vividly
screened in the photoplay produc-
ton. ~
Among the other historical scenes
which promise TO make The Crisis a
sensation are the bombardment and
fall of Ft. Sumter; the meeting In
Lincoln's cabinet TO consider meas
ures for saving the United States
intact; the rush Of North and South
to arms, and the battle Of Vicksburg,
fought In detail by both the land
and river forces.
The Crisis ID accompanied through
out by a special musical score based
on patriotic and romantic themes,
interpretative OF the scene, being
flashed on the screen, and rendered
by a full symphony orchestra. There
will be two performances daily.

TAE Se,OOo,OoO BOND ISSUE
4 x x X x * 4 y x X * X X i


OF all the measures to be voted on
at the June election this one is of
transcendcnt importance to the tax
payers of the state, and accordingly it
is resolving great interest from the in
telligent voters.
This $6,000,000 bond issue is. in truth
and in fact a S7,900000 bond issue, be-
cause it calls for the issue of 81 800 600
in bonds under H. b. No. 2l to meet
the federal appropriation for post and
forest roads provided by the Shackle-
ford bill. This second issue follows in
evitably upon the first. If | were a
thoroughgoing advocate of the policy
of bonding for building good RAIDS
wuld nevertheless ppose this particular
issue of bonds at this particular time.
There are countless cOgent reasons why
we shall act wisely and well who vote
1T down.
To outline briefly few of the most
salient and obvious reasons: We live in
strenuous times when our resources and
energies are circumseribcd and in great
demand in this quarter and in that.
for many years has common labor
been so scarce, amounting almost to a
dearth on farms and in shop. Not in
years has the cost of living been so
high, and the cost of all the elements
that go into making good roads is cor
rospondingly high. Very wisely and
justly does the negative argument on
this bond issue in the voters pamphlet
contend: At the present time labor
Is fully employed, vast public improve
ments ought to be carried on at a
time when laboring men need work.
Would it not be best to do part of our
road work, at least, with a state wned
plant, with labor from the state peni,
tcntiary? At the present time the cost
OF materials is excessive. Why should
we do this work at this time at a great
ly enhanced cost?''
Our nation is just entering a great
foreign war and must assume and in
eur vast bonded indebtedness The is
sue of this world war is as vet uncer-
tain for unforeseen complications may
yet arise. In such times it behooves
good citizens to assume no unneces-
sary bonded indebtedness. Let us build
all the good roads we can on the "pav
as you go plan. Another reason why
