i BEHIND THE LINES IN FRANCE Dec. 31.-This land of recent battles is a queer land now Over the shell torn villages and blasted woods, the pitted fields and the ruin of all that once was, is a strange quiet. The winter sky is lacking in airplanes and great flocks of crows have ta- ken their place.
 A few villagers have crept back to see what remains of their homes and holdings, but they are few and prob ably the winter will have passed be- fore reclamation and reconstruction , are undertaken on a large scale. Along the roads repaired and re- bridged for the Allies advance into German territory, long camion trains move slowly and aalways southward. They travel leisurely now, for the need of hurry is gone. They bring back the salvage of the battlefields, all the things that go-to make war, abandoned or captured.
 Eat if is the troops on the way bach nat are most interesting re. turning to rest areas or to their ports of enbarkation for home. French or American their behavior is the same. Always they are laugh ing or singing, always they greet everyone cheerily.
 Strangest of all are the lights at night, in the hamlets and villages or shining friendly from the isolated farm houses, in regions further back. For so long France seemed a desert cd land to the traveller by night Hour after hour the Associated Press correspondent has travelled at night without a glimmer to be seen in the countryside, and now from every hill and vale the cheery win dows shine and the villages are abaze. The papers devote columns to the illumination of Paris, but it is here in the remote part of France where war has been, that lights at night seem most wonderful, even if they are but candle or little lamp Where once camions or staff cars loomed lightness in the roads to the imminent threat of collision, and often it's accomplishment, the bril- liant headlights stab the night.

SENATOR CAHILL SPEAKS
AT NORMAL SCHOOL

The Forestry students had the pleas
ure Of listening to q short address by
Senator Cahill at chapel Monday
morning Of this week. He stated that
the students wer taking up an impor-
tant work for the state when begin
ming their studies and that the time
element is one Of the most important
of considerations in that time lost or
wasted cannot ever really be made up,
altho students too often think back
work a be made up. He urged that
the students should not over-stress
the rapidity with which they get out
of school and begin earning that dol
lar, but that they think more about
the proficiency which they al ac-
hieve SO that when they do 20 into
active work outside, they will be- pre-
pared for q successful kind Of SER
vice. do not worry about getting
positions, said Mr.. Cahill, 'but be
concerned about the level Of success
to which you can rise when you get
into a position" He made a plea for
the right kind Of citizenship-the ac-
tive, socially-minded citizen who does
not sit down and say "Let someone
else do it." In this connection ,partic-
ularly at the present day, the edu-
cation of girls is Of very great i'm
portance.

FARMERS SHOULD GOVERN.

Carl R. Kositzky, our very efficient state aud
itor, has given a very clear reason why the
farmers of North Dakota have decided to t take
the government of the state into their own
hands. His argument is in the form of a table
of comparative property values. Read it. you
town guys:
All farm property, 65.2 per cent.
Property in cities and towns, 16 per cent.
Railway, telephone, telegraph, Pullman and
express, 1873 per cent.
Up to the time the Nonpartisan League took
charge Of the state, the property owners listed
above had about the following proportion of
"say" in political affairs:
Farmers, about Is per cent.
Business men, about Is per cent.
Railroads, etc., about 66 per cent.
Is it any wonder that the farmers should
want this unnatural condition reversed, and
having the power, go right ahead and reverse
it? They've got a fair start in North Dakota
and all the other Northwestern states, and
they're going to STICK.-The Cando Record.

TO RED CROSS WORKERS.

Red Cross workers throughout the
country r requested to devote part
of their time to collecting platinum
and tin for government uses. The
campaign is being undertaken at the
request of the War Industries board.
Despite the wide gulf that has hith-
erto separated lowly tin from aristo-
cratic platinum, these two extremes
in metals are now brought to a COM
NOR level by the necessities of war.
Each is regarded as of equal import
ance to many of the essential indus
tries Of the country and as there is a
shortage of both materials the gov
eminent has called upon the Red Cross
to help make up the deficit.
Five thousand more tons of tin
than the customary sources can be ex-
pected to yield are required to meet
the government needs, according to
an estimate Of the War Industries
board. In a statement emphasizing
the necessity for this metal the board
points out that the entire industries Of
the country are dependent upon tin
in some form or other, that it would
be impossible to operate an ocean
steamship or build a railroad car
without it. Last year the worlds out
put Of tin was. 124,423 tons and of
this amount the United States used
J71,257 tons, Of ~fifty-eight per cent
Of the entire production. This gives
an idea Of the amount Of tin needed.
The platinum shortage is not yet
serious, but the government program
makes it imperative that the reserve
supply be increased. AS the produc-
ton of platinum in Russia-the
try which during the past has fur
nished the greater part of the worlds
supply-has been abandoned because
of the chaotic conditions, the govern
ment has deemed it advisable to ap-.
peal to individuals to help build up
the platinum reserve. Platinum is
needed in the making Of contact
points for tractors, trucks, automo-
biles, telegraph and telephone sys-
TENS, wireless apparatus, and instru-
ments for hospital and laboratory
work. One ounce Of the precious met
al Will make points for magnetos to
operate $50 trucks or tractors.
Because much of the jewelry con-
tanning platinum has a sentimental
value Red Cross workers have been
instructed not to urge citizens to part
with such articles. They r simply
TO remind the people Of the country
that donations Of jewelry containing
platinum will be . great help to the
government.

REPUBLICANS FAVOR SUFFRAGE.

The platform on which Governor Frazier is
standing for reelection contains a clear cut and
unequivocal endorsement of woman suffrage.
The democratic platform, adopted by Doyle and
Jerry Bacon faction, is silent upon this import
ant measure.
Now that President Wilson had advocated
woman suffrage, Candidate Doyle may also re-
l%uctantly fall in line. But why didn't he see that
a suffrage endorsement was incorporated into
the platform on which he is running?
The truth of the matter is that MI. Doyle is
wholly out of harmony with all the progressive
measures favored by the national administra-
ton. If he dared he probably would say that
government control of railroads, telegraph and
telephone lines, ship building yards, price fixing
and other similar measures are "socialistic."
The Frazier administration endorsed all
these measures when the war had barely start
ed and has taken an advanced and frank stand
upon every issue before the people. Mr.. Doyle,
on the contrary, lodges from first to last, al
though it is very apparent he is opposed to all
progress and that his chief concern is to protect
the Big Business profiteers and exploiters who
are paying for his campaign.

VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENTS.

Every citizen who believes in real democracy
and who thinks that government should be re-
s~ponsive to the will of the people, ought to vote
Eyes" on each Of the ten Constitutional Amend
ments.
Every one of these proposed amendments
have proved their practically somewhere in the
world. Sixteen states in the Union already have
adopted the Initiative and Referendum and
state-owned flour mills, packing plants and ter
nina elevators are successfully operated in
Denmark, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and
elsewhere.
Some of the Southern states have state owned
warehouses and terminal facilities. In every
case the people have been so pleased with the
result Of these experiments that they would not
think of returning to the old order. For elimin-
alton of private control of public utilities always
results in both higher prices for the producer
and lower cost of living for the consumer. The
people simply absorb the profits which now 90
to make millionaires OF great monopolistic mid
dlemen.
The ten Constitutional Amendments are the
foundation which will make North Dakota the
most progressive and prosperous state in the
Union. They should all carry by an over-whelm-
ing majority. Every citizen should vote on
these measures, for to pass they must have a
majority of all votes cast and the man who does
not note at all is helping defeat them as much
as the reactionary who votes against these
splendid measures.

DELIBERATE DECEPTION.

Candidate Doyle is neglecting his duties as
United States marshal and going about the state
telling the people that the Constitutional
Amendment which provides for the exemption
of farm improvements is really designed to con-
fscate all land so that title will revert to the
state.
Mr.. Doyle, if he really understands the
speech which has been written for him, must
know that this is deliberate deception of the
most despicable sort. The exemption of farm
improvements is not an experimental has
been put in practice in several places-and ev-
erywherei it has operated to put a premium upon
thrift and industry. It's principal effect is to
check land speculation and to force the owners
of idle acres to throw their lands upon the mar
ket at a reasonable price, thus increasing the
community's production.
This is exactly the reason why Mr.. Doyle OPP
poses such legislation. His campaign is being
financed by the great corporation monopolists
and Mr.. Doyle is parroting forth every argu-
ment that is suggested to him in the vain at
tempt to prevent any interference with the pro-
ifs of his Big Business hackers.
Mr.. Doyle stands for all things as they are.
Will he explain what is causing the rapid in
crease of farm mortgages and tenantry? Is
not this truly a confiscation of the farmers
property? Do not the operation Of the great
reduce hundreds of North Dakota farmers to a
condition of penury?
Mr.. Doyle thinks this is perfectly all right,
for his Big Business hackers are doing the con-
f%iscating, but he becomes almost hysterical
whenever it is suggested to exempt farm i'm
provements from taxation.
His objections are not a credit to either his
head or his heart. By his own words he is
proved to be as stupid as he is reactionary.
