THE LANGUAGE BOYCOTT

There is growing throughout the country what ap-
pears to be a boycott OF the German language. This is
quite natural. The longer we are at war with German
the more likely We will be to feel and to exhibit dislike
OF Ill things German. But. while this is natural, it is
useless. and by ;'st SO far as we depart from tho course
that Is useful and sensible now, We will have to retrace
our steps and correct our error at soIie time in the
future.
1t is a little unfortunate that, som. of our men of
some eminence appear to have been carried away int
ar extreme position on the German language when it is
fInrn them that we should have expected counsel of mod
Grafton and good sense.
To the great majority of our people the study Of a
foreign language is largely a matter of taste. A lam
guage other than that Of their own country viii he a
convenience to them. but it is not likely to be a neces.
sity. And IL the individual believes that he will get sat-
~isfaction out Of the German language, the fact that We
are at war with the people who habitually speak it is
not a sound reason for his abandoning it.

ALEXANDER HAMILTON

Two things just now serve to bring to mind Alexan-
der Hamilton. the associate OF. Washington, jefferson,
and other eminent men in the work of laying the founda-
tons of the American system OF government.
One Of these is a little advertisement in a New York
newspaper in which there is offered for sale the historic
Hamilton estate on the banks of the Hudson. No infor-
nation is given in the advertisement as to the present
ownership Of the estate, but the property has evidently
been kept intact through all the changes OF more than a
century and a quarter, which, have cut into town lots
many of the country estates Of early days.
The other things that recall Hamilton at this time
Of the treasury department which, organized at the very
that, in principle, it is today almost what it was when
it was created.
The broad basis of the financial system Of the United
his genius that formulated the plans and framed the ma
chinery for carrying then, into effect. Under that sys-
tenn it was possible for the young nation, at the very out
set of its career, to assume the Revolutionary war obNga-
tions that had borne heavily on the separate states, and
the new nation at once stepped into q place in the re-
srect Of the world by taking care of its monetary oblisa-
tions and protecting it's credit. The constructive work Of
the next few generations was cared for under the same
system. and when the Civil war came the same system,
with notifications, it is true, but without any essential
change in principle, enabled the nation to weather that
storm. And now the same system, modified to meet pres
ent conditions, and vastly expanded, but retaining the
general form which Hamilton gave it. is taking care OF
more and more obligations, without the slightest shock
to the security Of our institutions or the casting OF the
slightest doubt on our national credit. The nation owes
a great deal to Alexander Hamilton.

of political power by women, as such. will go with it.
That the complete disappearance Of the woman's
party is not to BE immediate need excite no disquietude.
Its survival is admittedly temporary. The leaders of that
party think that they. still have one legitimate task to
perforn--the pushing to enactment Of the Anthony
amendment to the constitution-and to act on that be-
lief is their right. whatever one may think as to its Wis
dom BY uniting as individuals with the old parties they
will soon find full opportunity for the utilization Of their
energies and the display Of their intelligence. They
may be sure Of a welcome from the several machines
"A welcome which, whether entirely sincere or not, will
be cordial in expression. and some of them are likely to
find that they have gained influence. not lost it-New

THE FIVE GREAT LESSONS OF THE WAR

(By Gcactt Burgess Of the vigilantes.)
What have you learned from this
first year Of the war?
Have you. learned hat no peace is
possible but one founded upon the
triumph of democracy?
Germany's faithlessness to her
treat agreements in Belgium has had
Its sequel in her deceit in Russia.
Germany's f~rightfulness is the delib-
crate policy Of autocracy in its design
to enslave the world. All pretenses
OF liberal reforms have been drowned
In h rising lust for world-conquest.
Intoxicated by self love and ruth
less ambition the kaiser and his war
lords seek to bring all civilizations
under the reign of brute force, Nation
after nation has fallen their prey. II
We are to survive, that malign doc
trine of might makes right must be
destroyed forever.
Have you learned that you. too,
can fight in the battle of freedom?
Lend your money to the Liberty
loans; give it to the Red Gross. Every
dollar lent the government helps
equip a soldier; every dollar to the
Red Cross succors him in his time Of

Dollars are soldiers, too! Your dol

army. Your dollar seems small, but
il each does his share the war will

CLASS DISTINCTION

Russia will serve as a storehouse of object lessons
for a good many years. Among other things concerning
which an impressive illustration is to be found just now
in Russia is the matter of class distinctions.
In Russia we see the idea Of class distinctions pushed
to its logical conclusion. which is ruin. Propa gandists
have travelled up and down Russia preaching the doc
classes, those with property and those with none. each
utterly antagonistic to the other. In the shaking up of
hffairs the propertyless class has come into power. hSut
then comes another division. Among those without
property. or with very little are the peasants in the rural
districts and the workmcn in the cities. The element
Of class distinction necessarily asserts itself again, and
those who have been led TO base their public action on
considerations Of property and occupation have again
divided into urban and rural groups. following the idea
of antagonistic interests. Just now industry and COM
nerce all over Russia are at a standstill. Factories in
the cities are closed because workers in them who were
without managerial experience have undertaken the
production Of these factories has ceased. The former
change for the products of the farm, and food is lack
ing. The peasants cannot obtain the Implements and
supplies that they need, and the production of the farms
must dwind.e. And in the confusion everything in the
nature Of government has gone by the board.
Glass distinctions have been preached to the limit
in this country. We have not reached the conditions
in Russia simply because more of our people are in
formed, and fewer of them have fallen for the unsound
theories that have been placed before them. But tho
principle is exactly the same. Whether here or in Rus
sia the man who breaches class distinctions is preaching
ruin.
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1918-04-09
HOW TO PRONOUNCED

The name of General Ferdinand Foch. supreme
commander Of the allied armies in France, is pronounced
"tFosh' with the long co. as in home" according to A
native Of Alsace, the former home Of the Foch family.
lnasn1uch as the name is one of which We are likely to
hear a great deal during the next few months, it is just
rs we'll to know how it is properly pronounced.
1t is interesting, also, to know that the family Of
General Pershing, the American commander, is also Of
Alsatian origin. although some generations back. The
two generals, therefore, have, in addition to the fact that
they represent nations allied in a great cause, the bond
of a common local origin.
