A BIG MAN IN A BIG JOB.

The name Julius H. Barnes" means
nothing to the resident of Fargo yet.
He halls from Duluth and has been
appointed as one of the chief aides of
Herbert c. Hoover, serving without
pay and giving his special attention to
grain.
ASK 100 citizens of Duluth to name
the most valuable citizen the Zenith
city has, and ninety-nine of them will
name Mr.. Barnes. He gave the city its
traffic commission, its boat club, its
boys department of the Y. M. c. A. and
nobody knows what other valuable
gifts in money and brains.
Anything that Mr.. Barnes approves
needs no other recommendation in Du-
luth, either for the laboring man or the
millionaire. As chief adviser to Mr..
Hoover on grain problems, Mr.. Barnes
will be no figurehead, and may be big
factor in the affairs Of North Dakota
during the coming year. OF one thing
the residents of the state can be as
sured: they can go to him, state their
case without reservations, and feel
confident they will get fair treatment.
He is big man with big job.

The New Republic: Peace without
annexations or indemnities is de-
testable, pro German formula in the
eyes of Americans, Englishmen,
Frenchmen and Italians who see the
central powers already virtually beat
en-. 1t is an equally detestable. but pro-
Allies formula in the eyes of the Pam
German imperialists, who still persist
in the belief that Germany Is winning
this war From our point OF view such
q peace would be far more favorable
one than the central powers deserve.
From the point OF view of the German
imperialists, however, a peace without
annexations or indemnities would rep
resent deep disaster. BY what sorcery
could they hold their dominance over
the German people whom they had
dragged through three years or more
Of unimaginable privations and suf-
fering and sorrow, only to issue in the
status quo? All the future Of the So
cial and military oligarchy would be
compromised by a barren peace. The
men composing this class do not be-
lieve that they need to accept such a
peace. They are confident that they
can at least fight defensive war on

WHAT PATRIOTISM MAY
MEAN TO A WOMAN.
By Christine Terhune Herrick
of the Vigilantes.

Patriotism means a lot to most of us
when 1t is accompanied by a sort of
grandstand play. We can all feel
thrills and choking in our threats at
the sight of Old Glory borne UP the
street ahead of a brass band playing
patriotic airs.
The time when we get over that and
feel the hardships of a patriot are when
we go home and plan for meals or
count up the change left after doing the
days marketing, or debate upon what
we can afford to have for dinner.
Then we shed our trailing robes of
glory and begin to grumble like any
uninspired creatures who have never
cheered a flag or kept step to a mar
tial tune.
"Why were we ever drawn into this
wrecked WARP" we cry. "Look at the
price of meat and vegetables! Do you
know what / had to pay for my last
bag of flour? It's a shame that the
necessities of life should be taxed like
this! No, children! You cannot have
cream on your strawberries and I'm
not sure / can afford to get the straw
berriesi Such a nuisance having to
pinch and fuss like this. / am sick to
death Of it,"
Just then and there you show that
you don't know all patriotism can
mean to woman. stop ana think why
everything is high-priced, why you
have to skimp and strive. Here is
where you have your chance to show
your patriotism!
What are we doing as nation? Why
were we drawn into this WARP"
You may be able to answer promptly
enough that we are working to support
democracy and freedom against mill
tarism and autocracy. But have you
ever thought that the little economies
that fret and harass you are your part
OF this big business?
It's very fine to wear badge and join
q canteen contingent or a Red Cross
unit and trot about to meetings and
hurrah for the flag. But II you DO
your bit in another way you arc
serving your country Just as much, al
though in smaller measure. as II you
volunteered for some spectacular SER
vice that kept you IN the public eye.

$4,000 reserves and about $4,000 men

Each state will be apportioned it's

When this force of 100000 to $780,

men will also have to pass physical

WATCH US GROW!
My how we've grown!

My how we've grown!
Any doubt that may have remained
about Fargo's long lead in popula-
ton over the other cities of the state,
was dispelled by the registration re-
turns published in The Forum last
evening.
2 1t is estimated that the registration
would affect between per cent and
10 per cent of the population. On
that basis the population of Fargo is
between 22.56O and $4,000. Moorhead
with an enrolment of sos shows a
population of from 5000 to $500.
Fargo enrolled as many men as any
two other cities in the state put to-
gether. The 1910 census gave Fargo
but 1881 people, and Grand Forks
12.47s. Figure that Grand Forks
hasn't grown any. which is absurd,
and Fargo would be twice as large, or
24,95s, judging from the registration
figures. There is little doubt then but
that the population of the city has
nearly doubled since 1910. Few cities
in the United States can show a
growth of 100 per cent from census
to census, but Fargo should do that
and more.
The $4,000 mark for Fargo Moor
head is just around the bend of the
road

"MR. WILSON'S WAR"

This is Wilson's War;" the Germans
say.
q Is it?
( German efficiency covers only the
concrete The spirit of a nation is a
closed book to the Teutonic mind.
( Germany made that mistake about
England and England's contemplate
little army"
< 1t is a far greater mistake to make
about America. Germany sees the froth
and ignores the substance beneath it.
1t sees 125 plotters and is blind to
100000, 900 loyal citizens.
8 But that insult should be like a
Zeppelin bomb to America. 1t took the
zeppelins to awaken England. That
has been their only military value so
far. Unfortunately, perhaps, we are
not likely to have any zeppelins over
America. They would probably do lit
tie damage, and if they cost ten lives
they might save a million by Fastening
the awakening of this country.

HARD TO RECRUIT EVEN
DOLLARS.

To speak frankly the rank and file
Of Fargo citizens have not done their
duty by the Liberty Loan.
The mistake was made in announc-
ing that the banks had taken Fargo's
quota of the loan. They did take it.
but only to retail it. The retailing
process is going slowly-too slowly.
< Tuesday 2,256 young men registered
for CONSUMPTION. About $50 citizens
have volunteered to buy Liberty
| bonds. That's the difference between
CONSUMPTION and recruiting. The gov
eminent has tried to recruit dollars
through the banks.
X If every city did as Fargo has done,
the word would go out to Germany
that the government could conscript
10 per cent of its men, but that only
about per cent OF them would vol
unfairly support the war financially,
even to the extent of loaning money
to the government at 8h per cent in
terest.
The names of those who have sub
scribed to the bonds are going to be
published in The Forum within a day or
two. No amounts will be given, and no
attempt made to shame by publicity
those who have not bought-The
Forum will not permit that-but that
hist is roll of honor that should in
cIude every citizen Of Fargo over 16
years of age. On June is the names
Of subscribers must be sent to Wash

Do you KNOW
on Timely Topics
Compiled by The Forum.

Do you know that the bicycle is
coming back?
Nearly as many bicycles will be
made this year as during the high tide
of the business.
Fargo, with it's level streets, is
ideally adapted to the bicycle, and
anyone who doubts its general use
needs only watch the procession of men
on their way to work in the morning.
An output of 100000 bicycles is
predicted for this year by the manu-
facturers, who put on the market
more than 100000 last year, double the
production Of the year before. In the
high tide years of the bicycle indus
try-1895, 1896 and 1S97-there was an
annual addition of 100000 to the
number of machines. The present pro-
nounced revival of interest in riding
has been stimulated by various causes,
and the use Of bicycles promises to
rival its old time popularity.

The Fargo Advocate takes a long
chance and turns prophet, hazarding the
following:
1--WE predicted August 4, 1914, that
the kaiser and the car would have to
walk the plank, during, or soon after
the war. Let us make another predic-
tion-there will be no German empire
after the peace wind-up. Germany,
Austria, Hungary, and Poland will be
separate republics. What will they do
with the kaiser? Well, as far as we
can lift the arras Of the future, all we
can interpret is, that he will be farm
ed out to the most enterprising moving
picture corporation, and the two million
dollars thus obtained, help Germany re-
habilitate Belgium"
The Donnybrook Courier scores a
single with this:
If Russia wants to keep in the first
division, she will have to sign up a new
shortstop, a utility outf1elder and cou-
pie Of left-handed pitchers.

an excuse for standing behind the gov
eminent, If one is needed, with this:
Still, it is better to be dictated to by
our own government for few months
than by Germany permanently"
