Unfortunately Bro. Bloom waited
until last evening to make an apology
for the article which appeared in his
issue Of last Thursday, wherein he
took us to task for questioning the re-
liability Of his press report of that
day, declaring that the war had end
ed. Naturally we resented this un-
warranted attack upon us and the
very next day we wrote the article
which appears elsewhere in this issue
in which we justify our stand in this
matter. A part Of the World is print
ed on Tuesday afternoon and it hap
pened that this article-was made up in
the first rum. However, we wish to
be fair at all times and as Editor
Bloom has realized his mistake and
has admitted it, we would be unjust
were we not to meet him half. way.
too, may have been a little indis-
crete in making some of the. state
ments in u article in light Of MI.
Blooms apology, and a do no less
ourselves than to ask our readers to
pass up this little unpleasantness, and
let us all join together in thanksgiv-
ing that the war has ended even tho
all a little premature in CIV
ing vent to feelings.

j. D. Stenson, recorder of the A. O.
U. w. Lodge No. 81, Devils Lake, N.
D., has received from the Grand Lodge
A. o. U. w. a draft for $4,000 to be
turned over to Mrs. Otto Waum-
schaffe in payment Of insurance in the
Workman Of Otto Waumschaffe, her
husband.
1t will be remembered that Otto
Waumschaffe was killed in the rail-
road yards on the night of August Z,
1918, while attending to his duties as
a switchman.
He had made application for insur-
ance in the Workman lodge on July
21st, 1918 but the letter containing his
application had never reached the Of
fee of the head lodge at Fargo, thus
the Grand Lodge had no record at the
time of Waumschaffe's death Of his
holding any insurance in the order.
However, upon receiving from the
officers and physician Of the local
lodge a statement of all the facts in
the case accompanied by proof and
claim the Grand Lodge has allowed the
claim.in full and have sent to J. d.
Stenson, recorder of the local lodge a
draft for $4,000 to be turned over to
Mrs. Waumschafe in payment Of this
insurance, thus sustaining the we'll
known reputation Of the A. o. u. w.
Lodge as being the best fraterna1 in
surance organization in the world.

Some months ago the World pub
lished an article and among other
things a reflection was cast on w. H.
Brown, who is one of our well known
Citizens. The article referred to him
as a "dead beat" and at the time the
article was published in good faith,
but after investigation we believe that
we were unjust in the statement, and
we now offer a retraction, as we do
not wish to cast an unjust reflection
on any man. We offer the apology in
the same good faith that we published
the original article.

INCAUTIOUS AND VICTORIOUS

It is impossible to tell definitely whether the United Press asso-
citation spreading the premature news that an a1rnistice had been
signed between the Allies and Germany simply yielded to a temp
tation to do something sensational and unique, or made what might
son may be, the method Of disseminating the news" avs extreme
~ incanhous and the results of one of the greatest exploded
Scoops" in newspaperdom were inexpressibly inglorious.
The fact that the circulation of the unfounded story caused the
expenditure of an untold amount of needless money may be bad
enough in itself, but the more serious aspect of the case is that
the affair called forth an outburst of popular publication and re-:
joicing which was based on purely fictitious grounds, and thus in
advance deprived the actual celebration of victory of it's fervid and
sound enthusiasm.
Another far more serious circumstance is that the circulation of
least-as official information, tends to undermine public confidence
in the press. There has never been a time when it was more nee
essary than now to be careful and painstakingly exact with regard
to the treatment of news which affects not merely a locality, but
entire nations, and the lack of caution on the part of the msed
press association is an extremely grave error of judgment. \
As far as the clients of the incautious press organization are
concerned, they are entitled to the sympathy of those who are
served by an association whose news service is as perfect and ac-
curate as it is humanity possible to make it, even though some Of
these same clients persist in repeatedly circulating unfounded news
in the face of we'll warranted doubts.
The great crowds that gathered to witness the victories of the
American chemists had the satisfaction to behold the dye manu-
featuring processes in operation; and color for color, it was de-
monstrated that the home dyes exposed to sunlight and weather,
are in every way equal to the foreign equivalent. It is an inter-
shot our enemies full Of holes in wartime has been the leader in
perfecting ON a big scale the d~ye-making industry, which is to con.
hnue to shoot disappointment into German long years after the
struggles of batteries are over. It has all along been claimed that
Cernnanys dyestuff industry was to be a thing to bargain with
TOR international commercial advantages, and it was to be an ear
nest desire that the world once more at peace must early resume
business relations with her. Further, it was a source of large in
come Of still larger prestige. The duplication of this industry in
America must prove very disquieting to the people over the Rhine.
