RICHARD LAW THROUGH AS
 cRoCkER HOUSE MANAGER

Richard Law. for three and one half years manager of the Creekef house, at New London. and well known among the travelling public of this sec tion, severed his connection with the hotel in this capacity Saturday night. This came about rather suddenly and was of much surprise to his friends, although 1t has been known that Mir. Law has received a number of offers of other positions. He prefers to re- main in the hotel business, however, and the likelihood is that he will ac- cept a position with hotel in some other city

THOROLY CLASSIFIED.

Under the caption Remnants Con-
vening," the Crosby Review thus for
casts the "Lincoln League" gathering
at Minot the present week:
May First, Minot, are the time and
place for the assembling of such rem
nants of the Republican party as have
an abiding conviction that the farm
kers of North Dakota lack the intelli-
gence to name a set Of men capable
of governing this state in the best in
terests Of the people.
Among the remnants we will find
men who are associated with the lum-
Der, grain, meet, steel and oil inter-
ests, of other states, in the effort to
retain the hold on North Dakota
which these interests had in the good
old days of McKenzieism; we will find
reactionary politicians who believe the
farmers should let them run their
league; we will find spawned old war
horses who sniff political spoils; we
will find men whose whole philosophy
of life has been to "play both ends
against the middle;" we find men who
have failed of the league endorse
ment for office because they were re-
pudiated by their neighbors who knew
them best; we will find men who grow
red and cross every time they trysto
slam the league without having their
listeners catch them at it; we wi
find men who draw their salary from
corporations outside the state and
make their living off the people with
in the state; we will find there the
men who have betrayed the interests
of the people, and laughed at their de-
mands, in the past and who, because
| the people will no longer have any
thing to do with them, are branding
them as seditious, disloyal and trea'
sonable.
And among them you will find not
one Of that vile tribe called Socialists
Nor a single farmer, brown and sun
tanned, with the odor Of barn yart
and honest-to-God sweat about him.

Potatoes An American Product.

The reason for a potato campaign
is that the food bins are heaped with
potatoes as the answer of the farmer
to last years appeal for the bumper
war crops. The potato, grown through
patriotism, should be eaten through
patriotism. With so many other
things scarce, potatoes, which are
plentiful, should not go to waste. And
they will go to waste if they are not
eaten in the next few weeks. To eat
potatoes is the best kind Of local,
home grown patriotism.
Potatoes are a strictly made-in-
America product. They grew pn this
continent when the Mohawks and the
Cherokees ruled it with a tomahawk,
They were the gift of America to
Europe, and Europe has gone US one
better. England, France, Germany,
Belgium have made the potato a ma
turalized citizen, while Ireland, God
bless her, has almost made it a Pat
ron Saint along with st. Patrick him
self.
In spite of it's adoption in other
countries, however, the potato proved
it was a true American last year
when the crops were called to the
front for wal service. It enlisted in
the front ranks of the food forces
with the result that we have such g
potato crop as was never known in
this country. Europe does not neec
to share u potatoes. They are toe
bulky to ship at this time when ships
must be saved for troops and for the
most essential and concentrated foods
Therefore, the best form of patriot
ism is to eat our bumper crop anc
make it help save wheat. The pc.
tato has done it's "bit" by US. Shall
we do our "bit" by it? It's a gooc
soldier. Help it fight the Kaiser.

What have we in common to cause
MS to rise at the call of Q common I'M
pulse and prepare to die for q common
cause2 It would be easy to formulate
the characteristic dreams Of the Rus
sian, the Italian, the Belgian, the
Scotch, the Irish or the Portuguese. It
would be possible to catch the Sleam Of
idealism which has given to the French
the glorious title Of tho Hero Nation"
But none Of these would suffice. We
must take q cross section Of all Of
them, and a dozen more. to formulate
the ideals which course In common
through them all after they have been
united into what we call America. For
1t Is common ideals which have trans
formed the men and women Of all these
races and kindreds and tongues into
sur nation, which stands today facing
the grim fact of war, q war to which
no man dare call them in the name Of
race, or language, or previous allegi-
ance.
World Citizenship.
The President has placed our inter-
vention in this wal upon,>a plane Of
idealism to which every citizen, Of
whatever race, may rally without los
ing hold upon the best traditions of
the land from which his f~orefathers
have come. 1t is not the call of a mar
row nationalism, but the call of world
citizenship.
Our entrance into this war is no con-
cession to the accursed gospel of force
and fraud. We wish nothing for our
selves, but have resolved Ito quote the
oft quoted words Of our President)
that "the world must be made safe for
democracy-and it's .peace-planned
upon the trusted basis Of political lib
erty." We scorn the idea that might
is right" but we are willing to take
our part in policing the world against
the madmen who act upon that doc
trine.
"How High Your ldsaIs7"
History will not ask us or any other
nation, "How big was your army" but
"How high were your idealsY Not
"How vast your navy7' but "What WA
your devotion to dutyf" Not "How
quickly could you mobilizsr but
"What thought have you contributed
toward the betterment of mankind?'
To those questions Germany q an
swer, II contributed 10 the world the
idea Of representation" for, ~ kontss.
quieu tells us, the representative idea
was "born In the forests Of GERMANY
She will have to confess, however, that
she cast it out, q naked infant, In or

and today America and her niles are
marching in r~esistless columns, carry

Three Hands.

One Of u famous lecturers used to
say some people had three hands, a
right hand and aaieft hand and a little
behindhand. The fifth wheel to a cart
is frequently mentioned as an example
of ~uselessness, but the third hand is
worse than useless, it is a serious
handicap, observes a writer. All of us
need to keep our right hand busy, and
most need to teach the left hand to do
it's share, but a little behindhand
should be promptly amputated.

thousands Of bushels of potatoes,
grown in this state last fall In re.
Spouse to the urgent appeal Of the

Of the producers. At the same time
many consumers are stinting their
consumption Of potatoes because the
price is too high for them. Scots
bluf reports that growers are glad to
sell their potatoes there at 60 to 10
cents 4 bushel. The railroad charges
TO Omaha are 21A cents per hundred
pounds. This makes the cost Of the
potatoes laid down in Omaha from 70
to SO cents Z bushel. They are sold
to the consumer ut $3.50 a bushel.
1T costs 80 cents, say, to plant
these potatoes, cultivate them, dig
