Dear Mother:
This is Saturday evening and L am

will try TO write you a few lines to
let you know that | am we'll and get
ting along fine in France, although
none of us have any money. We have
not been paid since we left Camp
Sheridan, but we get tobacco issued
us about every three days, so we get
along pretty well.
Quite a few Of our fellows have
been to the front already, so | ex-
pect TO get a crack at it in a few days
Believe me, there is lots of noise
around here, but we are quite used
to it now and don't mind il.
was over to a little town the other
day and got TO see Vern Mohr. He is
Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant
he sure has got soft job; all he does
is ride around in an automobile al
day long. / suppose you see by the
papers what the American troops are
doing over here; they are sure show
ing the "Dutch" up now; if they keel
it up. the war will be over before We
know il.
They have the funniest teams ovel
here: they drive a COW and a horse
together, or two cows and horse
they use more cows to do their worl
than they do horses. We went trough
some towns that look like the ruins o
Pompei. Coxie got a paper last night
it sure looked good TO see a pape

Well, ma, this is all for this time

The Saturday News believes that
Woodrow Wilson is entitled to the
benefits of a square deal. For itself
it proposes to give him a square deal
AS, through its editorial columns it
gave notice early in 1916 that, in the
event of the nomination of a republi
car for the presidency whose record
Indicated reactionary tendencies rath-
err than progressive ideas, it would
openly support Mr.. Wilson in the
campaign to follow, SO today it re-
peats the warning that any attempt
to handicap or hamper President
Wilson, in the hope of mere political
advantage, will be equivalent to in
viting the opposition of this paper,
whatever its influence may he consid-
cred worth. The word republican"
or democrat" as applied to a politi-
cal party, carries with it no terrors
for The Saturday News.
Let US here digress for a moment
to add that The Saturday News sup
ported Mr.. Hughes in the campaign
OF 1915, but that, after the republican
candidates visit to California. it be-
gan to entertain some degree of doubt
whether its confidence had not been
misplaced. The question has not been
satisfactorily settled in its own mind
even unto this day.
We realize that Mr.. Wilson's lack
of experience in business and govern
mental affairs is possibly itself a
handicap. but it is inconsequential in
comparison with the handicap of pro-
f1teers.

FOOD FOR REFLECTION.

The action of the mayor of Madison
in suppressing a meeting of farmers
ought to furnish food for reflection
for the other cities of the state.
Unquestionably this official act has
cost Madison the friendship of hun
dreds of farmers, whereas, instead of
engendering bitterness and needless
ly arousing antagonisms, there should
be unity of feeling,-at least, an alb
| sence of bitterness if cooperation is
impossible.
We have no disposition to urge the
people of the cities to join in any
political movement the farmers have
planned, Or that they may plan for
the future. This is. a matter that
rests with the individual voter. There
is only n thing in life that a mar
may be said to own.-absolutely own,
with a privilege of doing with it as
he pleases, and that is his right to
cast his vote in accordance with his
conscience. If the town man isn't
satisfied with the position of his farm
er neighbor with respect to politics,
it supplies no reason why he should
refuse to sell him goods, or to permit
him to come to town, or to attend
a meeting of farmer friends.
AS we have suggested before, we
do not have to support such of the
formers vagaries as we may choose
so to denominate, but we do need the
farmer in business, as we need to
remain in pleasant business relations
with the democrats and republicans,
the Baptists and the Methodists, and
all other people constituting our com
munity.
If the Nonpartisan League were
composed of allen enemies" or even
disloyal Americans, we, too. would
join the geneltman at Madison in,
denying them the privileges which we
accord to citizens in general, but it is
not, if WI may judge by the charac-
ter of men composing the membership
in Codington county, who, WI take it.

PRoFIrEERlNG AND PATRIOTISM.

We fear that Senator McCumber O
North Dakota. and others who have
expressed similar views, are right:
the profiteerse are using patriotism
as a shield behind which they are
robbing the government and are also
stumbling blocks in the path of prog
ress in the conduct of the war.
The time, however, has gone by
when profiteering can be successfully
carried on without arousing a storm
of protest throughout the country,
even though there is still a DISPOSE
ton to brand as "pro-German" or dis
loyal every critic Of their nefarious
practices.
Unless we are greatly mistaken
concerning the temper of the Ameri-
can people, President Wilson may de-
pend, absolutely depend, upon the 10y
al support of the country in his efforts
to eradicate ~profiteering, or, at least,
TO reduce it to the minimum, for
eradication is probably impossible in
the face of human greed.S
1t may be true, as Mr.. Swift, the
big packer, recently said in his at
tempt to offset the effect of the reye-
tations made to the Federal Trade
Commission by Francis J. Heney, of
California, that Mr.. Honey as a can
didate for the goyernorship of his state
is a seeker after fame rather than
after truth for truths sake; neverthe-
less, 1t Is fairly we'll established that
Mr.. Swift and his associates in the
packing industry have been anon
the loudest shouters for patriotism
while at the same time playing their
p%rofiteering game.
Still a o r~eprehensible form of
profteering is seen in the ship-build-
ing combination promoted by the finan-
cial elite at Hog Island, a place that
seems to have been rightly named.
Men whose knowledge of ships and
ship-building has been acquired in
passin gto and fro acros the Atlantic
in some luxurious liner suddenly be-
came utorldlfamoua as constructors
of ships. The recent disclosures JUS
tify the conclusion that through a sys-
TEN Of wheels within wheels these
patriots" have been reaping profits
instead Of building ships.
It is no wonder that General Goe-

thousand. more or less, by trusts and
monopolists-were too many and too
much for even this vigorous soul. Con-
tracts and sub-contracts have been
passed along from one set of men to
another. Meantime the demand for
ships has been growing apace. And
still the great ship-building oncerns
Of Hog Island have constructed no
ships worth while mentioning.
There has never been greater need
