and the ever growing American
forces. There, the review says lie the
key positions of the war.
American troops now occupy
trenches at four separate points and.

cipal sector their front is tour and a
halt miles long. They have been con-
stantly engaged. the department says,
and the scope of their activities is
being constantly extended.
Nothing is found in the situation by
the department to indicate that the
Germans have abandoned their plans
for a great offensive in the west. and
it says the allies. while assuming an
alert defensive. are content to let the
enemy break himself against their i'm
~pregnable line.
Intense air activities during the
week are noted, with the statement
that PA enemy aircraft were brought
down on the western front alone,
while the allies lost only IS machines
on all fronts during the same period,

BAKER AT THE FRONT
The secretary of war is in France on a wa.

The secretary of war is in France on a war mission.
It is a visit wisely undertaken. The secretary of war is
not a military man. 1t has not been the custom of our
government to have a military man in the office of the
secretary of war. 1t is not his business to command
is a vast civil body, in it's relations with its military arm.
While not a soldier, it is highly important that the sec
:etary should be in close touch with the great agency Of
he government which, through its trained specialists,
is under his general direction, and the conferences be-
tween Secretary Baker and General Pershing, and be-
tween the secretary and the official representatives II
other governments ought to be productive of excellent
results.
MIR. Baker is abroad on a mission of war, not of
peace. 1t is his business to aid in the organization and
equipment of our armies to fight. His thorough per-
Torrance of that duty will hasten peace more than any
hing else that he or anyone can do. We may expect
better methods and more rapid work to result from the
secretarys trip abroad. "~- -
a word may be said about the manner in which Mr.
Bakers trip has been treated by the press of the country
Every daily newspaper man in the country knew thai
the secretary of war was about to undertake this voy-
age, and knew~of the approximate time when he would
start. Tie facts would have been quite interesting tc
The public. There was no statute to prevent the publ.
line on the subject. The newspapers were Informed
hat the government did not desire this information pub
ished, and that settled it. The newspapers observed the
request and complied with it with scrupulous exactness

one way in which his need can be met, namely. through
the loaning Of money.by those who have not been in the
habit Of loaning, or, what amounts to the same thing,
through the loaning by u very large number Of. people
Of sums in addition to those which they have been &C.
custon,ed to loan in the past.
In other words, the ordinary financial resources Of
the country must be used for the financing of the busl-
ness of the country, manufacturing, agricultural COM
mercial, and so forth, and the masses of the people must
be prepared to loan in addition the billions which are
necessary for the prosecution of distinctive war work
by the government. That means that in proportion to
their ability all the people must lay aside a portion Of
their income to loan to the government in the various
securities which are offered, chief among which are Lib
erty bonds. 1t means, further, that so far as possible
these bonds shall be retained by the purchasers, If not
until their maturity, at least until the period Of war need
is over.
There is not the slightest objection to any person
.disposine of his Liberty bonds if he has legitimate need
for the money, just as he would dispose OF any other Sc
curities under like condition, but the essence of the whole
matter is that, barring these exceptional cases, the in
vcstment i'll a Liberty bond shall be regarded as a per-
nlanent investment. 1t is obvious that if a given issue
of bonds were to be fully subscribed by the people at
large, and then these bonds were to be sold to a small
number of persons with large sums to invest, the pur-
pose Of the whole movement would be defeated, and the
government might as we'll offer the bonds to the large
banks and large private investors in the first place, and
have the ordinary sources of revenue for ordinary bust
ness purposes drained at the outset.
The man who holds a Liberty bond as a permanent
investment need pay no attention to it's current market
value. The prices Of securities fluctuatc, not in rela-
ton alone to their intrinsic value, but according to the
present supply of funds available for investment in that
form of security. But the holder of a Liberty bond has
the assurance that no matter through what fluctuations
Of price his security passes in the meantime, it is and
will remain intrinsically worth 100 cents on the dollar
for the entire credit of the government is pledged to its
payment at that rate. The holder of a Liberty bond is
certain Of the payment Of his interest when it is due,
and of his principle at maturity. And, if tho history
of the past is any guide, he has the further assurance
that at some time after the war pressure. has passed, he
will be able. if he wishes to do so, to rea!izs a handsome
premium on his bond in the open market.

These sentences are from the official reports from
American army headquarters in France of Sunday,
March 10. We submit that there has been either too
much or too little deletion. We are willing to concede
the wisdom Of the authorities in suppressing the names
\ means of withholding information from the enemy, in
suppressing even the names of the localities from which
the soldiers in a given command hail. But, assuming
the propriety Of deleting the names of the states or cit
les which figure in the above sentences as they were
originally written. we are curious to know on what
theory it was considered proper or useful to send the re-
naming words of the sentences. Those sentences as
they now appear are as devoid Of information to friend
or enemy as would be an equal number of letters from
the Greek alphabet. and we submit that in this time of
conservation it would have been an act of mercy to
hard working and long suffering newspapers to save
them the payment Of the cost required to get those
meaningless sentences over three thousand miles of At

were not to be told where, the entire sentences might

other worthy purposes.

NO STORM I'M THE DAKOTAS"

There appears to be a belief, amounting to a sort
Of superstition, that whenever there is a storm anywhere
in any of the northwestern states it must of necessity in
ciudc "the Dakotas." During the past three or four days
snow and sleet storms have played havoc in several sec
lions Of the Upper Mississippi Valley. and. according to
custom. comment. in various quarters has included both
North and South Dakota in the scope of these storms. AS.
a matter of fact, North Dakota has been experiencing
typical early spring weather, quite mild, a little raw. but
with clear skies and only gentle winds. No snow has
fallen, so far as we have seen. reported, anywhere in the
state. and the weather has been just what would ordin-
arly be expected Of early March when>al the elements
are moving toward an early spring.
It is no disgrace to Minneapolis and st. Paul that
they have had a heavy fall of snow, accompanied by
blustry winds, nor would it be discreditable for North Da-,
kota to experience the same sort of weather. But the
fact is that no such weather has visited us, and there II
no reason why the Twin City people should seek to slough
off their storms on us.
On Monday. telegraphic communication with the east
was interrupted by a sieet storm which wrecked hundreds
of miles of wire between the Twin Cities and Chicago.
The only way In which this affected North. Dakosa was
that II was impossible to get messages through the gap,
and all wire service had to be carried for hundreds OF
miles around the storm area. Yet we will read during
the NEXT few days OF the great storm in "the Dakotss.'
when this section Of the state had no storm whstsvsF.

SCANDINAVIA AND THE WAR

With the United States at war with a great foreign
power whose every act has been injurious or menac;ne
to this nation and destructive Of the principles upon which
this nation is founded, there is no room in the mind OF
any loyal American citizen, no matter what his origin, for
any sentiment other than that of thorough sympathy
with the United States in the war. and Of determination
that the war shall continue until the menace to human
ity is renewed. This applies to all the native born equal
~ with all those who have come to the United States from
abroad.
But among those Of our citizens of foreign origin,
those of Scandinavian extraction, of all who came to us
from neutral countries. have the most powerful reason in
addition to their loyalty to the United States to hope. and
labor and. pray for the complete success of the United
States and the European allies. 1t has been apparent
from the beginning that the Scandinavian countries were
the most menaced by German success. Indeed, the Scan
dinavian countries have actually suffered from German
activity almost as much as if they had been actually en-
gaged in the war. They and Holland have had their ship
ping destroyed and their people killed without compunc-
ton by the ruthless submarine warfare of Germany, and
it mattered not to the German pirates whether the vessel
attacked carried the flag of one of the belligerent nations
or of those northwestern European nations which have
sought to remain at peace-death to those on board and
destruction to the ship that carried them have been met
ed out without mercy.
The fate of Belgium gives an inkling Of what might
be expected to be the fate of any little nation that stood
in the way of German rule. The footing of Denmark
stands as an object lesson in German methods. And there
has never been the slightest reason to believe that if the
Germans won in this war they would not, at their pleas
ure. extend both over Holland and the Scandinavian
countries the full sway Of their power.
! Recent developments will serve as an indication of
how this pressure is to be exerted. Finland, in so far as
German power can accomplish it, has already become a
German province, and Sweden and Norway now stand in
the direct line Of the German advance. Americans OF
Scandinavian descent now have before them the assur-
ance that German success means, as we'll as the tragic
wreck Of all that the country of their adoption stands for
the RELOCATION of their old home lands, in whose history
and achievements they take natural and proper pride
into the position Of doormats for German ambition.

CANADA'S TASK.

Some of the Canadian cities are
having trouble over the maturing Of
their municipal debts. 1t is estimated
that these maturing obligations this
year will amount to $4,000. 900. An
Ottawa dispatch says that plans for
taking care Of maturing city debts are
under consideration. The banks are
doing something. but they are not
eager for this sort Of financing al
present.
