The Mandan Pioneer has this comment on II
Of John Steen:
A farmer arose on the floor OF the Minot
Republican convention and asked for the
privilege Of the floor. He made reference to
the desire to have a farmer candidate for
governor and he wanted them to consider
1.-THE Man Who Beat Casey"
Amid tremendous cheering, John Steen,
state treasurer and loyal American. was
given the endorsement Of some 900 to TOO
delegates who are Americans first and Re-
Americans only. to place in nomination
ticket that every loyal citizen Of North Da-
kota can work for and vote for.
True North Dakotans, and men who, being
true to their state, are also true to their ma
ton; men who Rlorify in citizenship in the
greatest country Gods green earth such
men who, since the day war was declared,
at the Bolsheviki state administration, can
now have the privilege Of taking off their
coats and placing in the gubernatorial chair
man for whom they need not apologize.
North Dakota must purge herself Of the
dernagogue, who is bad enough in peace
times. but who becomes government
thwarter, in short a real menace, In war
Bolshevikism before it places our state in
the plight Of the Russia Of today
With John Steen as the candidate, the
Socialist agitators and the present Nonparti-
san off1ceholders. who have been trying to
show lukewarm patriotism only since they
found that it was unhealthy to continue to
spill their frothings-the Lindberghs Of
citizenship is going to the polls on the last
Wednesday in June and THE Man Who
Beat Casey and the ticket named at Mnot
will be nominated.

The Red Cross
BY EpeAR A. GUEST.

am too old to share the fight;
Too many years have come and gone
Since first I saw the morning light,
My youth has been and travelled on,
/ am too old to join the line.
Far-fung today that truth shall live;
may not die for what is fine.
But am not too old to give.
/ am not yet so old that
Have drifted from the world apart;
still can hear the helpless cry,
And mercy still can reach my heart.
stu can share from day to day
The burden that our youth must bear,
And, thank God that can say
The Red Cross lis my symbol there.
am too old to bear a lance,
Across the shel1-torn flanders field
may not 20 whore troops advance
And deaths grim terrors are revealed
But can hear the helpless call
And i can serve them while live;
And thank God chat through it all
shall not be too old I'd give

that Italy's contribution to this army was
100000 men.
If the army includes $4,000 Italians
there is little doubt that force of at least
100000 exists some place behind the AL
lied lines, ready for emergencies Great
Britain and France would each contribute
more than Italy, and doubtless many Of
the American troops now being sent across
will be turned into this army where they
may complete their training.

LAND HUNGER AND SOCIALISM.

q Never has the desire for private property
been so strong now. new peasant
bourgeoisie is forming and will soon demand
quiet and order Lenine faces two aterna-
lives: Either he will fall. or become the
policeman of the new peasant bourgeoise."
To have piece of the earth's surface
that one can call ones own, seems to be
an inherent desire of man.
Private ownership has no place in the
ideal Socialistic state.
Security in possession does not exist
when anarchy prevails.
Russia, apparently, is rapidly growing
weary Of both Socialism and anarchy, &C.
cording to the foregoing dispatch from
James O'Donnel Bennett, an American
correspondent now at Stockholm.
Russia is finding that the adjustment
Of private ownership Of property and the
overthrow Of law and government, do not
mean happiness, but chaos, hunger, and
misery.

NEWS AND COMMENT,

mat pair OF binoculars you contributed
to become ''eyes for the navy" helped
make up collection worth about $3,000,-
600. The nationwide appeal for marine
glasses brought this generous response,
government reports.
If you have had a letter recently from
In-Salah in the Sahara desert, it is worthy
of preservation. In-Salah is midway be-
tween the Mediterranean sea and the
Niger river, and it is now connected with
Biskra by an airplane mail service. The
airplanes cover a distance Of 1876 kiIo-
meters, so Washington and New York have
nothing on In-Salah and Biskra in this re-
spect.
This little verse from the Atlantic, ''To
One Who Died In Battle" is rather worth
while:
I knew. you were glad to go; you knew no
The sting Of high adventure in your blood
The salt OF danger savoring nights and days;
And in your heart the wave OF some unknown
Deep feeling shared with comrades, that bore
The tideways that the coward never knows
Nor he who boards his life for his own ends.
You lived them through and through in those
brief days
They rushed together as the waters rush
From many sources; you had all in one.

The La Moure County Chronicle has the fol-
lowing comment on the Minot ticket:
If the Lincoln Republican league and its
they could not have evolved q better state
ticket than that which was named at Minot
last week. Chief interest and whatever
chance Of success the ticket might have
conferred in the choice of candidate for
governor and that IL just where ten-strike
was made. John Steen was not only the
logical candidate but there is no man in the
state more worthy of gubernatoriaI honors
than he Stems chiefest political distinc-
tion lies in the fact that he is 'the man that
beat Casey" besides that, he is genuine
ON soil farmer. and so is qualified to
understand and promote the interests of
our paramount industry. But his real worth
inheres in his character-in his honesty his
sincerity. his sturdy Americanism, his re-
spect for law and order, his sense of JUS
flee, his wholesome ideals. John steen is so
Independent that he leans backwards He
cannot be bu1ied or seduced into following
any course of action which does not have
the approval Of his own Judgment and con-
science. After q long and intimate ac-
Quaintance with John Steen. the writer is,
indeed glad Of an opportunity to pay this
we'll deserved tribute to the man. s

Confirmed testimony forms still

says: 81 was taken with pain in my
back, which nearly bent me double.
I had a too frequent desire to pass
the kidney secretions and they con-
tanned sediment. My back was lame
and sore and I had dull, nagging
feeling across my hips. Doan's Kid

Hope Of Shaking Morale Of American
Nation May Be Object of
Attack.

Washington, July 22.-The German
submarine raider which appeared of
the Massachusetts coast, in contrast
to the tactic adopted by the U-boats
which last raided American waters,
shelled vessels without giving the
crews chance to seek safety In
small boats.
quarters as indicating that the Ger
mans were undertaking to bring their
campaign of "frightfulness" directly
home to America in the hope of shak-
ing the morale of the nation. That
this attempt would have no more sue
cess than the raid Of last May and
June was the firm conviction of off,
cial Washington.
Officials plainly were surprised that
the submersibles should have attacked
a tug and barges, as these vessels were
without military value and the none
tary loss was small. Some accepted
this waste of ammunition as bearing
out the theory of a ''frightfulness"
campaign, for upon no other ground,
they said, could the submarine com.
mander justify such an expensive at
tack.
Temperance of submarines in
American waters at this time was not
unexpected after the finding of for
eign made mines off the Long Island
coast last week. The presence of the
sea raider was not accepted by naval
officials as proof that it was a torpedo
that sank the armored cruiser San
Diego off Fire Island, New York, last
Friday, with possible loss of g.
lives.
