WTLL Non "GET sET,, AGAIN.

Germany is not going to "get set'' again
on the western front.
II the latest attack launched by the

means anything, it means just that.
General Foch has regained the initiative,
and offensive fighter as he is, he is not
going to relinquish it. Never again will
Germany be permitted to spend weeks and
months preparing her blows and deciding
where to strike. The German army has
been jolted out, Of its tracks, and it will
not be given the opportunity to make a
stand and prepare for another great Of

The Allies now hold the balance in man

London, Aug. "Details OF the

After sunset one day a call for

Newspaper" For
N. D. Editors

Lisbon, N. D., Aug. AT the re-
cent session Of the North Dakota
Press association held at Grand
Forks, July IL and IS, it was de-
cided to publish a quarterly bulletin
during the current year, the first
number appearing about October 1.
This will enable the members. of
! the association to keep in touch with
each other on business and state
affairs, and to coordinate their eff
forts in rendering the best service to
the craft in this state. .... .,-s.
The government regulations, for
war purposes have eliminated free
exchanges and free papers-so the
bulletin will undoubtedly become
a necessity as a general means Of
inter- communication and oo-opera-
| ton.
1t is planned to make each judicial
| district unit with a chairman,
whose duty will be, to keep in touch
with every newspaper in each dis
trict, and present the news in con-
densed form to the bulletin as we'll
as to register the needs Of the news
papers therein. "
The bulletin will be made a.
| medium Of exchange not only for
ideas, but of printing outfits and
materials as we'll.
Party politics will have no place
in the bulletin, it's sole object being
| to promote business efficiency and
cooperation in the newspaper field
and among its workers.
Each newspaper is requested by
Secretary c. E. Boyden to send COM
munications or news items for the
bulletin to President M. 1. Forkner,
Langdon, or c. E. Boyden, secretary,
Lisbon, and also to confer with the
chairman, in his judicial district,
whose name will appear shortly, in
circular letter. az 49,

Passports Long In Use
Earliest One on Record Was Granted by Julius
Caesar.

Earliest One on Record Was Granted by Julius
Caesar.
From Answers, London.
Passports, without which one cannot at pres
ent quit the country except as a soldier or a SAL
lor are of very ancient origin. The earliest Of
which there is record is one granted by Julius
Caesar to a philosopher, and is worded as fol.
lows:
IF there be anyone land hardy
enough to modest Potamon, let him consider
whether he be strong enough to wage war with
Caesar"
In normal times passport is not difficult
thing to obtain in England. The application mt st
be accompanied by a declaration made either by
the applicants banker, or any mayor, magistrate,
minister Of religion, barrister-at-law, physician,
solicitor or notary. 1t is linguistically highly
ornate document, with the Royal Arms at it's
head an imposing array Of titles set forth in
grandiloquent Language and printed in the best
copperplate.
At the base is the coat Of arms Of the foreign
secretary followed by his signature Autographed.
The bearers signature completes the document,
and the whole thing may be copsidered cheap at
two shilliEgs
If a person wishes to travel in any OF those
countries where passport isa necessity he must
obtain the acknowledgment Of registration-thi
is the visa-of the embassy or consulate Of that
country. This costs a further sum of from two
to nine shillings.

Chamberlain has been brilliant, and in many
respects UNIQUE. It would seem that he is gifted
in accomplishing not only big things but things
that seem impossible.
Once upon a time he had a Republican IeEis-
lature when he was governor of Oregon and OF
course the legislature did not care a whole lot
about the governor. But that difference did not
interfere with the governors influence and his
ability to get the results ia legislation that he
wanted from the enemy who experienced a.
change Of heart
When ne decided to come to the United States
senate there happened to be another Republican
legislature in force 1t lis not usual for a Re-
publican legislature to send a. Democrat to the
United states senate, but when the former gov
ernor of Oregon announced his intentions about
the senatorship the unusual came to pass.

voted to the military policy OF the nation. has
serene and kindly outlook upon life. He Is one

Rainbow division, who spent seven months under
shell fire and wears badges Of honor. THE Sal
vationists do not theorze but they Just get right
down to brass tacks and serve. With a smile
and CHEEKY word they greet all alike and hop
right into the tough situation.
They cook and mend and sew and serve hot
cocoa and coffee, and simply do everything in
their power to make the soldiers lot easier They
are not after profit, either. They give away what
they can, and when they charge at all 1t is bare
cost, and we know it For instance, we can buy a
certain popular biscuit from the salvationsts
there at wholesale prices and even cheaper than
we get 1t at retail in New York, and many times
cheaper than any other organization will let us
have iii for over there.
Sympathetic, never arrogant or bossy, right
down on their marrow bones with the rest of us.

Great Britain are correct, they should not
be accepted literally.
Russia" no longer exists.
What Trotzky and Lenine call "Russia"
is country of very indefinite boundaries.
The new Republic of the North has been
proclaimed on the Thurman coast and it is
actively friendly to the Allies. Finland is
an independent country. Then come the
Baltic states of Courland, Esthonia and
Lithuania, which have been stripped from
Russia and adjacent Of them are Poland
and the Ukraine, also enjoying" the Ger
man type Of freedom"
In Siberia new republic has been pro-
claimed, and throughout the great empire
the Czecho-Slovaks, aided by many fac
tions of the Russian people are actively
disputing the rule of the Bolshevik gov
eminent.
The announcement that the Bolshevik
government has openly declared war on
the Allies and has aligned itself with Ger
many, will be greeted on many sides by
the comment, "the mask is off at last"
That view of the Bolsheviki, however
much we may dislike them, probably is
not an accurate one. Lenine and Trotzky
probably received German money to start
their revolution, and undoubtedly had Ger
man aid But it was not for love Of Ger
many. They sought to use Germany as
Germany used them. What they sought
was universal government by the prole-
tariat, and they thought that when they
had established themselves in Russia the
movement would spread to other countries,
including Germany, and thrones and gov
ernments would totter in every country in
the world.
But the Lenine and Trotzky plan proved
to be just a dream. German military
strength proved a very real thing after all,
and German soldiers refused to throw
down their arms. Famine, disease and
unspeakable chaos resulting from the total
lack of executive ability shown by the
Bolsheviki, forced Lenine and Trotzky to
sign the Brest-Litovsk peace. That def
nitely estranged them from the Allies The
Allies could not recognize a government
which signed such a peace without, in
measure, recognizing the peace.
Cut off from Allied aid, and threat
ened daily with a counter revolution, the
BoIsheviki sought help from the only
source available and turned to Germany.
1t is a most amazing revelation Of Ger
man duplicity to read that Germany has
agreed to stop further invasions of Russia
in order that the Bolsheviki may send
troops against the Czecho-Slovaks The
fact that the Brest-Litovsk treaty was
supposed to have ended the invasion of
Russia is quite openly and frankly ignored.
It is not even thought worthy of mention
that the invasion continued and is con-
tinuing despite this "scrap of paper
If the Bolsheviki have declared war
against the Allies, it will serve to clarity
the situation in Russia. It will mean a
new government for the Russian people,
supported by the American-Japanese ex-
petition now being organized and pledged
to the Reputation of the Brest- Litovsk
treaty, to the resumption of war against
Germany and the restoration of the occu-
pied states to the Russian republic.
The Russian front is In fair way to
be re-established.
