No Dancing Girls or
Boys at the LEGISLATURE

Bismarck, N D., Dec 20--League legislators
who hope to follow the time-honored per cent
of distributing little patronage among the
faithful are likely to discover upon their arrival
here that there amt going to be any core"
w. J. Prater, it is understood, has been made
official employment agent for the session All
legislative employees for both houses to be
engaged by him and the legislators are to have
nothing to say about it. The scheme is said
to have the sanction Of President TQwnley who
picked Prater it Is stated for this job.
One result OF this plan will be to remove the
distribution OF patronage from the hands Of the
senators and representatives, who will have moth
ing to do upon their arrival here but to legisla-
tive and attend league oaucuses. -
The North Dakota assembly, in common with
the legislatures of other states, has always sport
ed a number of purely ornamental jobs
means of rewardng constituents who did good
work during the campaign. There have been
four more sergeants at arms and many
watchnen for both houses; there have been
postmasters for each house and messengers and
each drawing his SIS per. diem or noctum. as the
might be. .1-- q - ,
These legislative auxiliaries have added much
to the gaiety Of the session. There has been
abundance of fresh. attractive, frivolous young
ladies', and a fine crop Of good dancing men, and
they have done much toward making capital life
merry for two months by organizing Third
Houses" 'tGrid- Iron" clubs and other adjunctions
to the assembly proper. rt...
There's to be of this according to
hand picked list approved by the st. Paul Of
fices of the league for their ability to assist in
keeping stray sheep in line Clerks and stenog-
raphers already employed at the capitol will be
engaged to do clerical and stenograpbic work n2
sofar as possible; the job of postmaster and
house will have but one sergeant at arms and
there will be but one night -watchman

Plans fO1. Extending
Relief To Famished
Europe Being MatuYed

Paris. Dec. 2o.-Plans for extending relief to
famished Europe. which President Wilson re-
CARDS as the most important pressing question
needing settlement, are rapidly maturing in such
way as to SECURE full cooperation by the al
lies.
The President some time ago indicated in a
speech that something should be done promptly
Tor relieving tho liberated and neutral regions
Whicn suffered 80 severely from the war. He
now has supplemented this by making 1t known
to the allies that he regards the relief measures
as or extreme Importance both for the stricken
populations and also as a means Of holding back
the wave OF discomfort and resentment sweep
ing westward In the train of the Bolshevist
movement.
The relief plans that have matured since the
arrival OF Herbert c. Hoover, the food admins
traitor, are understood to have gone before the
supreme war council in London and to have
been referred to a committee upon which Eng
Der Of exchanges have been going on with the
committee, which Is gradually tending toward
agreement. DE-. I. q
AS a great deal of German tonnage is lying
idle in German ports the use OF this con-
templated, the passenger ships to be employed in
moving American troops homeward and the bulk
or the freighters, augmented with American and
allied freight tonnage to be devoted to relief
work
Because Of President Wilson's special interest
in the subject he has made 1t known that he
considers 1T highly desirable that cooperation
by all the allied interests be secured at the
liest possible moment and it now is believed that
the entire question would be speedily adjusted.

BUT WHY SINK THEM7

It is difficult to get the point OF view of those
who advocate destroying the German warships
rather than to risk dispute over their appor-
stionrnent among the Allies.
Even the American peace ENJOYS are reported to
have indorsed the plan, which looks like ideal
ism carried to absurdity
The ships could serve useful purpose in
bringing home American troops, If they were
of no value otherwise. II they are not wanted
as warships surely many Of them could be re-
built for other purposes, or at least their ma
chinery salvaged and used again
slf the policy of destroying all property that
might cause a dispute carried into all the
affairs Of men and nations, there wouldn't be
much of value left in the world.
Meanwhile Secretary Daniels talks Of the new
three year naval program and we have spent
SEQ 600 900 for a shipyard which has fifty vessels
in process OF construction.

AN IMPROVEMENT ON THE PLAN.

s What looks like decided improvement on The
Forums plan for a soldiers monument to be
paid for by popular subscription and erected in
Island Park, has been suggested by &. L. Meller
superintendent of the city parks.
+. Mr.. Meer would have the memorial take the
form of an outdoor swimming tank, similar to
the one in Grand Forks, but on little larger
scale. On the building to be erected or close to
lit he would have a bronze tablet bearing the
names of all the men from Fargo or Cass county
who have given their lives in the Great War
81 He advances many excellent arguments in
Favor Of his amendment. Such memorial. he
points out would be Of real benefit to the SOL
diers who return and to all the residents OF
Fargo; it would serve to keep the names of the
men whose memory is to be honored constantly
before the young people OF the city, whereas
monument would be forgotten after a few years
Probably not third of the residents OF the
city can describe, off hand. the monuments now
in the park and tell why they were erected.
The Forum has repeatedly advocated a swim
rning pool for Island Park-a pool that could be
used in the winter as q skating rink and pro-
vide outdoor amusement for the greater part OF
the year. Perhaps the memorial plan will pro-
vide the needed spur to initiative. Mr.. Mellers
rlan certainly deserves careful consideration. 1t
might be laid aside until after the holiday sea-
son but 1t should not be forgotten and at the
psychological time Fargo should take it up and
fyft IL through.

WHY THEY INTERVIEWED.


Lord Miner the British war secretary, has
given very frank and adequate explanation OF
why the Allies intervened in Russia.
apparently the British cabinet has been heckled
about Russian Intervention by the so-called In
telectuals" much. as our government has been
In reply he very frankly stated that the inter-
yention in Russia was military necessity in or
der to save vast stores of supplies from falling
into the hands of the Germans; to rescue the
szacho-Slovaks from annihilation; and to save
millions Of friendly Russians from being terror
lied robbed and murdered by the Bolshev1n
This may not suffice for our Boshevtst SYM
spathizers in America, but it sounds like set OF
sverv excellent reasons to any practical Amerl-
can.
The same reasons that brought about inter
yention prevent withdrawal now. Withdrawal
spould mean leaving the Czecho- -Slovaks to their
fate and they would be murdered to the last
man by the Red Guard. All who have dared
srear arms against the Boshevik would meet
tie same fate, either at the hands of a firing
squad or by starvation.
But to leave the situation as 1t Is at present
8ss to reap all the trouble there is to be reaped
with none of the benefits either to the Allies
or the Russians. The Allies have a force that is
safficient only to all the hatred and op-
position Of the BolshevilSi and to stir their SYM
ipathizers here and in Western Europe, while 1t is
not sufficient to bring any semblance OF order In
Russia or save the millions who will die of star
gation before spring if aid is not forthcoming.

"A SOCIAL DISEASE"

Professor Landfeld, formerly Of the Univer-
Isity of California has given an apt definition Of
a3oshevism as being not political system but
ia social disease"
The term "Bolshevism" is too frequently used
IN very loose to indicate any radical
movement. But Bolshevists have very definite
program which is a universal proletarianism, or
in other words government by class, the
w0rkers And by workers they include only those
Engaged in manual labor.
Real democracy is as distasteful to the Boil
shevist as autocracy. ~
In practice Bolshevism has resulted in little less
4flan wholesale murder and anarchy. The Boil
sheviki have found that any class government
whether it be by the rich or by the proletariat
requires terrorism If it is to be perpetuated in
mower They have practised terrorism ruthless
IT.. and tolerance is a word unknown in their
lexicon. All who differed with them were
xrornptly executed. No newspapers are allowed
except those which express the ideas of the Boil
ahevists. Freedom of speech is abrogated
Fear is the greatest instigator of crime. The
Bolsheviki fear they win be overthrown and their
cruelty knows no bound Nor does 1t stop with their
onponents They fear each other, and extend
their reign Of terror to their enemies within their
own party.
The definition Of ''a social disease" therefore,
avpears most apt. It is disease caused. pri-

bFession That is why it will not find the fertile
