REDUCING THE TRAFFIC
MENACE.

Fargo Rotarians are discussing
hsome voluntary traffic regulations
that may greatly reduce the danger
sof accidents on city streets.
The Rotarians do not plan to have
them Incorporated into a law, but
merely to place them before all mo-
torists, with a request to observe
them voluntarily.
# The regulations cover only the
injecting Of cars at street corners
where there are no traffic officers, and
they might be summed up in the
phrase pass to the right
For example, If a car were going
south on one OF the streets, and a car
were going east on an avenue, the
car on the avenue would have the
right Of way. The cars would pass
cach other TO the right.
3 af the car on the. avenue were going
west, the car on the street would have
the right Of way. passing to the right.
There is reason back of the rules.
When the drivers can first see each
otner the car going south on the
street Is farther away from the meet
Ing place and 1t therefore has more
chance to stop.
at is a very simple rule, and one that
might greatly reduce the danger OF
accidents.

THE UNFoReIVAsLE NEWS
PAPER SIN. N

The newspaper that distorts or
suppresses news commits a double
crime. ..t
1t cheats fits subscribers, and IL
plays traitor to the entire newspaper
profession. by lowering confidence Of
the reading public in newspapers as
whole.
The editorial opinions Of news
paper may be wrong, but IL 1t keeps
its news columns sacred to the truth.
and open, it need not be a sinister
force In a community.
On the other hand when a news
paper prostitutes it's news columns, 1t
commits the unforgivable sin, no
matter how worthy 1t may consider
the cause for which it is fighting.
Last evening the Forum published
two accounts Of the meeting at Daw-'
son when Farmer Ingle answered
u. w. Brinton, the manager of the
Townley stores. One was the ac-
count given by The Courier News, the
leagues daily organ, and the other
the account sent by The Forums cor
respondent. One or both Of those ac-
counts was prejudiced; was untrue;
was a gross deception on the readers.
Read the two and judge which it was
The Forum in it's news columns is
just as willing to publish anything
Mr.. Brinton has to say about Mr..
Townley's stores, as 1t is to publish
what Mr.. Ingle has to say, yet there
can be no doubt about what The
Forum thinks Of the store plan.
On the other hand The Courier
News has never mentioned the store
plan edltorially, and has never in it's
news columns given any account Of
what the plan is. In its report Of the
Dawson meeting, 1t deliberately
omitted all reference TO Mr.. Ingle's
attempts to speak; to the fact that
Mr.. Brinton had promised Mr.. Ingle a
hearing at Dawson; and that the ma
jority of the farmers stayed to hear
Mr.. Ingle after Mr.. Brinton left fol-
lowing the passage of his prepared
resolutions.
That is what is meant by kept
press" and a very real menace it is
to popular government. The most
serious feature is that, to the un-
thinking, one such kept organ" will
dscredit all decent, self-respecting
newspapers that are trying honestly
to fulfill their duty to their subscrib-
eFs.
To sum 1t up the difference is just
this: there Is nothing on either side
Of the whole Nonpartisan question
that The Forum is afraid or unwin-
ing to print, If it is news; and there
seems to be nothing unfavorable to
the league that the morning league
organ is not afraid to print.

MILD WINTER
SAVED STOCK IN
NORTH DAKOTA

Livestock losses in North Dakota
were light during the winter OF 1918
compared with 1917, owing to the
unusually favorable winter, accord
ing to the statistical report of a. y.
Surratt OF Grand Forks, field agent
for the United States department Of
agriculture, bureau of crop esti-
mates.
His spring survey OF livestock con-
ditions in the state shows that all
classes OF stock wintered well as a
rule, but owing to the more less cur
tailed supply Of feed are thinner
than usual. The condition OF stock
is less favorable in the northwest
ern part of the state than in other
sections as shortage of all feeds was
more acute there.

Hog losses were very light Dis
ease and exposure losses OF all
classes of stock with the exception
of horses have been below the aver
age. The fact that horse losses
were slightly above the average is
due chiefly to heavy mortality of old
horses especially in the northwest

cordtng to the correspondent there
Of The Daily Mail. I'VE fired straight

The correspondent quotes other re-
marks from wounded soldiers which
bear further testimony to the terrible
toll the Germans are paying for every
foot they advance.
Aye. we're never far away" a
wounded Highlander replied to the
remark of the correspondent that the
Highlanders seemed to get into all
the battles. He proceeded. to tell
how his regiment was on a canal
bank when the Germans tried to
cross:
They advanced on both fanks,
coming UP on either side in the at
tempt to get across. We were told to
hold our fire and waited until they
were well i'm view. Then. when there
were hundreds before us. we let fly.
Man. II was murderous."
A Yorkshire man. who was stand
ing nearby, broke in:
That may be, but that was no bet
ter than when we saw them along
the side OF hedge. They didn't ex-
pect us to be so near. We pumped
bullets into them with Lewis guns
until our bodies ached."
AS an illustration of the coolness
and confidence of the British troops,
The Daily Mail correspondent says
some Highlanders told him how they
found a quantity of food in trenches
which some other troops had been
forced to evacuate before heavy Ger
man attacks. The Highlanders said
the first thing they did was to sit
down and eat the food.
