There are two newspapers in the
state that the Times-Record editor
takes great deal of pleasure in read
ing from the simple matter that the
editorials contained in both are or
iginal and forceful. One is the La
Moure Chronicle edited by our old
time friend Walt. Taylor, and the
other, the Wahpeton Times, edited
by John Andrews. Both editors write
along different lines, but both WELD
trenchant pen, and have something
to say-even if you don't agree with
them all the time. What we like about
these editors is the concrete, forceful
tone of their writings that gives the
reader something to think about and
this is what makes paper worth
while-an editorial standard so that
you know where you are when you
read these papers.

Minnie Nelson, for superintendent of
public instruction and C. J. Fisk, for
judge of the supreme court. The bal
ance of the ticket was left to COM
mittee to handle and fill as they saw
fit. The great fight this fall of course
is to be made on the governorship
and Mr.. Doyle will undoubtedly have
the support Of great majority of
the republicans who were opposed to
Frazier and in addition will be sup
ported strongly by the democratic
party. Mr.. Doyle will make a
safe governor if he should be elected
that is one thing certain, and there
would be an end to wild cat legisla-
ton. Business men both in and out of
the state do not know where they are
at at this time and capital is being
withdrawn from the state because
those who have money to loan are
afraid to loan it on chattel security
because Of the recent order of the
council of defense in regard to the
foreclosure of chattel mortgages.

Speaking about sensationalism the
people of Minot go the limit. We are
Informed that Minot paper came out
with an edition containing big head
lines to the effect that the German
Crown Prince and 100000 prisoners
had been taken. This very naturally
was great news and stirred up the
people there to fever heat, causing
big crowds to parade the town in
divers way, some noisy, some mod
erately so, and some overwhelmingly
SO, to show their appreciation of the
great feat accomplished. If these
things really happened we would not
blame people for getting thor oughly
enthusiastic about tive would feel
like kicking hole in the sky ourself-
but there was no truth to it, there
fore such reports should not be put
out. The Times-Record could do the
same thing were it inclined to that
kind of sensationalisn, but we are not
built that way. We get the latest
war news it is possible to get up to
the time we 60 to press at o'clock
in the afternoon, and if anything hap
pened after that we get wire from
St. Paul informing us so that we could
get out a special if it was of such
Importance as to warrant it., and that
we certainly would do, so that neither
Minot, Fargo, or the Twin Cities can
get anything later than the Times
Record can up to the time of going to
press and if you do not get it in your
local paper we do not think it will be
very reliable. It is easy to print great
big black headlines that such thing
has happened, then in the real article
itself say that it is reported" The
Times Record will try and give you
reliable information . 1t is true that
all the dispatches we get are not alb
solutely true, but they are published
as received by wire without change
and are sent out by the United Press.
During battles that are in progress
the military leaders have no time to
send cablegrams but are watching
earnestly every move of the armies
just like two people play game of
chess, therefore the war correspon-
dents get as nearly the correct infor-
nation as it is possible to get and flash
it overseas to New York and on to all
the papers in the country. No tele-
graphic news, unless officially con-
frmed by the government, is correct,
but it is reasonably so in most cases.
The Times Record will try and not
color any news as we want the people
to rely on what they see in these col
unnnS.

Germany is trying to make another
peace pact through Spain according
to dispatches received by the Times
Record yesterday. . Germany has
made several of these proposed peace
moves the last few months but every
time the kaiser does this he always
has lot Of things he wants that
makes it impossible for the allies to
grant. There will be no German made
peace under any circumstances. When
peace is declared it will be under the

Sam will have considerable to say at
the peace conference then Uncle
Sam will make no unjust claims when
it comes time to settle with the Ger

We heard some fellows discussing
the big advances made by the French

the depot platform and most of the
crowd standing around were feeling

to 60 yet" Quick as flash came the
response from Conductor Melchoir,
who has boy over there, "but my
friend, we have the long distance men
over there" Say, that hit the nail
square on the head that time. No mat

The government will cut down the
sugar rations commencing August l,
after which date only two pounds of
sugar per capita will be allowed to
, meet the worlds shortage and to care
for the immediate demands of the al
lies and American military forces.
The government warns that unless the
consumption of sugar is reduced both
by householders and the public gen.
orally, the food administration says
that supplies for Belgium, the Red
Cross, Y. N. c. A., Knights of Column
bus, Salvation Army and other organ
izations working for the welfare of
the American military forces in Eu-
rope cannot be maintained. The sug-
ar situation confronting the United
States is described by the food ad-
ministration is as follows:
"The sugar supplies throughout the
country are at low ebb; the production
from the American beet and Louisiana
cane crops have been disappointing;
the yield in Porto Rico has been small
er than anticipated; and the inability
of the United States and the allies to
secure sugar from Java and other dis
tant sources because of the imperative
call for ships for the movement of
troops and their supplies has mater
tally reduced the supply from such
quarters.
"The quantity needed by the army
and navy greatly exceeds earlier esti-
mates; we must send large amount
to France and Italy to take the place
of the great volume lost through the
German invasion, during which much
beet land was overrun and many fac
tories destroyed; we have to supply
certain quantities to neutral nations
under agreements; and finally more
than so million pounds were list re-
Gently through sinkings off our At
lantic coast"
The statement says that while su-
gar is often used |, as a luxury in
America it has bec6me an essential
for the success of the war among the
nations Of Europe.
To assure equitable distribution of
the sugar the American public is to
be allowed, the food administration
has worked out scheme of ALLEGATION
to the states based on population and
the needs of sugar using industries
in the state. Each state food admin
istrator will have charge of the dis
tribution in his state.

they should have a map so that they
