WINDSOR CASTLES HISTORY.

Indianopiis News: Windsor castle
is near the town Of Windsor, in Berk-
shire, England, % miles from London
windsor is one OF the most ancient
towns in England, dating from the
early middle ages. The castle was
erected By William, the Conqueror.
1t was originally the site of Roman
settlement and has figured in Eng
lish history in many important, pic
turesque and tragic ways. Many of
the kings of England are buried be-
meath the royal chapel at Windsor,
Including King Edward VII, who was
buried there in May, 1910. The cas-
tie, surrounded by spacious and mag
nifcent grounds, has been the chief
residence Of English sovereigns for
many years.

In The Open Forum
A Column Devoted 10 the Task Of
Keeping Up With North Da-
kota Edttors.

The Golden Valley American vir
dicates its right to the use of III
name with the following timely ed
torial:
America must stop whining
about the war. We have I'M
dertaken a mans Job: let us
tighten our belts and 60 to 1t
like men.
America is not going to starve,
nor go broke, nor lose all its
young men. It's cities are not
going to be sacked. nor blown up
by U-boats, nor destroyed by
air ships.
We have been driven into the
war. 1t was unavoidable, m
evitable; just part of the ever
lasting struggle between kings
on one hand, and liberty loving
people on the other. Let us
muzzle the spike-heads, the
croakers and the prophets Of
evil: trample upon the specula-
tor: Jail the traitor.
What we most need is divine
courage and the faith which will
remove mountains. Send our
fighting men forth with stout
hearts as well as strong arms.
Germans have shown what
solidarity and courage can do in
a sinister cause. Let us show
how much more these weapons
can do for us in cause that is
holy.
America is again face to face
with stern sacrifice, that barbar-
ism may not triumph and that
popular government may not
perish from this earth. Let US
do it boldly with an indomitable
spirit like that of '76.
The LitchviIle Bulletin contri
outes it's bit toward expressing
North Dakota sentiment on whea
prices, with the following:
We cannot believe that the
members of the wheat price fix
ing board are big enough chumps
to attempt to fix a price OF S1.65
for the 1917 wheat crop. In
normal times, this would be a
fair price, but with So seed, 10
cent Irvine. 81 labor, with 20 cent
hogs and $1.75 corn, and every
thing else proportionately high,
sucr a price would be suicidal.
Eve y wheat farmer In the coun-
try would consider himself rob-
bed by his own government.
Three-fourths of the wheat crop
would be held in the farmers
granaries, unless commander
ed by an army Of United States
marshals. It would cut our
wheat production in half for next
year At present prices the
North Dakota farmer Is making
more money from his barley and
fax than from his wheat.
The Dickinson Press combats tn,
dea that this is a rich manAs war
With the following editorial:
Anti-conscription agitators tell
the people that this Is a rich
mans war and a poor mans
fight" No statement was ever
farther from the truth, because
no interests are more involved in
the results Of this war than the
interests of the poor man. The
salvation of the poor man lies in
democracy.
The statement is contrary to
facts. More rich men will fight
than poor men because Of the
larger exemption Of the latter,
due to employment in industries
whose products are essential to
war, and TO greater degree Of
dependency of families. In. cash
contribution to the expense OF
the war, the rich man will pay
more than the poor man. There
are other differences in favor Of
the poor man. but these two en-
phasize the further fact that the
rich man lights and pays for
that which the poor man most
needs-demoeratic opportunities
and privileges.

What are the constitutional

An Anxious Subscriber.
offhand we would say funeral
rites"
This question. however. has wor-
ried many a good citizen during the
last few weeks, and on another part
of this page will be found q more
serious attempt to answer 1t.
1t all depends on the construction
Of the expression giving aid and
comfort" to the enemy. Who is going
to construe that term when the
speakers Of the Peoples Council
come to North Dakota?
The Forum holds that any attempt
to create distrust in the conduct of
the present war. or to agitate against
1t while we are in the midst of it, is
giving aid and comfort to the
enemy" Under that construction.
these wandering pacifists would have
no rights but those of immediate
arrest and trial.

Hocut.PetteWaY Wedding

A wedding of much interest to Tam
pa people took place last Wednesday,
August 8, at Graham, n. c., when
Miss Naomi Hocut, charming young
woman of that place, was married to
Mr.. Walter Raleigh Petteway, a we'll
known attorney of this city.

of pink Killarney roses. The groom
and his best man, his nephew, Mr
H. c. Petteway, of Lakeland, Fla. en-
tered next, followed by the little four
year-old nephew of the bride, Master
Portland Goodman, who carefully
guarded an exquisite brides rose, in
the heart of which lay the all-impOr
tant ring. The last, to enter was the
bride, on the arm of her brother-in-
law, Mr.. R. L. Holmes, who gave her
in marriage at the altar.
The bride looked very lovely in her
travelling suit, a chic model of dark
gray chiffon broad cloth with shoes
and gloves in the same gray tone.
Her hat was legborn with trimmings
of purple, and she carried bouquet
of brides roses with a shower of val
ley lilies.
Immediately after the ceremony
Mr.. and Mrs. Petteway left by auto
mobile for Greensboro. where they
caught a train for Asheville From
there they went to Waynesyille, n. c.,
where they are spending some time
before returning to their home in
this city
His many friends here are eager to
welcome Mr.. Petteway and his bride
and to wish them every happiness
that can possibly be given to two NOR
