OLEOMARGARINE

Some years ago, when the manufacture of substi-
tutes for butter began to assume considerable proper
lions. congress was induced, largely by means of a
propaganda originating with certain spectators in dairy
products. to enact q law imposing a tax. of 10 cents a
pound on all such substitutes as were %artifcially cosopsd

A SENSIBLE PLAN.

Representative men of Grand Forks who have been
identified with local political groups of every imaginable
kind, took action yesterday looking toward the eiimina-
ton of a contests from the election to be held in the
city this spring for the purpose of choosing a mayor for
the ensuing two years. AS has been stated in news ar
ticles on the subject, the plan of action agreed on, pro-
vides for the creation of a committee Of ten men which
shall be thoroughly representative of the local political
groups, for the collection of information by this COM
mittee in every possible way in order that the wishes of
the general public may be thoroughly understood, and,
in the light of that information, a decision by the COM
nittee as to the man most available for the position of
mayor, and a recommendation by the committee to that
effect.
That plan is an enninently sensible one. 1t is thor
oughly workable. The committee for which provision -
made is large enough to insure the consideration of the
subject from every angle, And not too large to be a prac-
teal, working body. Its decisions, Of course, can have
no binding force except in Its members and those who
in one way or another. agree to be guised by it's con-
illusions. But, while entirely informal, it's recommenda-
tons will be followed without question if, as is to be ex-
pected, they are based on the determination to secure
for the city the best that can be secured, and to obtain
it without a contest which will divide. our forces at a
time when there is special need that they be united.
1t must be borne in mind that in the selection of a
public official the desires Of every individual cannot be
met in their entirety. No man can be perfectly accept
able TO everyone. But there are plenty of men in Grand
Forks who are capable of giving the city an administra-
ton which will be clean, and honorable. and efficient.
No administration will be perfect. No administration
has ever been perfect. But the city has survived all the
mistakes which have been made. and we can look tor
ward without alarm to an administration by any one of
a dozen or a score of men who might be named. It is
for the committee to ascertain to the best of its ability
which of these men will be best able to serve, and which
of them will be most generally acceptable to the people
of the city.
There must be, in the making of the selection, a
complete forgetfulness of political ambition, of fractional
feeling, and Of personal preferences on minor points.
There must be a willingness to concede something and a
determination to permit no stubbornness and no preju-
dice to interfere with the essential thing, which is the
maintenance of the spirit Of unity among our people in
order that they may address themselves with full vigor
to the real work that lies before them.

lieved that the public would take kindly to an. uncol-
ored imitation Of butter.
Viewed as a revenue measure, which this law never
was, the law has always been a failure, for it has pro-
duced no revenue worth mentioning AS "a restrictive
measure, which is what it is and was intended to be,
the law is an inpertinence 1t prohibits the doing of
that (which is perfectly straightforward and proper, and
which people ought to be permitted to do without in
reference Oleonlargarine Is clean and wholesome.
as much so as any other article of food. 1t is manu-
featured under perfectly sanitary conditions, whether or
not one uses it is a matter of taste, and price If the
individual prefers it colored yellow, or rcd, or green,
is nobody's business hut his own, and any manufacturer
trade demands, provided the ingredients which he uses
arc such as are approved by the food authorities.
Some brands of oleo are given about the color of
ordinary butter by the admixturc Of pure milk, cream
or butter. Other brands are sold perfectly white, but Il
small quantity of coloring matter accompanies each
package. and the user can mix this in if it's use is de-
sired. This is inconvenient. The need for it should be
removed There is no more reason why there should
be a tax o noleomargarinc than there should be a tax
be a tax on oleonlargarine than there should be a tax
on beefstcak, or butter, or sausage. The product should
be, and is, sold for what it is, on it's own merits, and
whether or not he will use it.

j.. A GOOD K PLAN.

The suggestion has been made that interest received
on Liberty Bonds be invested in War Savings stamps.
The plan looks like an excellent one, and it il already
being received with favor. OF course the coupon on
ones Liberty Bond represents cash. 1t is as good as
cash, and cash can be obtained for it. But the bond it.
self represents a loan to the government, and the invest
ment Of the interest in War Savings stamps is simply a
means whereby the interest itself can be reloaned to the
government at a reasonable rate.
This is a form Of reinvestment which will be advan-
tageous to the individual and to the government alike
It is one which is likely to appeal strongly to the citizen
of small means. The rich man will not be interested.
because the amount which can be invested in War saw
ings stamps is limited. and the system is protected
against the possibility Of the scrip being bought upr 81
wealthy people. -----A----

Control Your Conduct.

The worst kind of unhappness, as
well as the greatest amount of 1t,
comes from our conduct TO each other.
If our conduct, therefore, were under
the control of kindness. it would be
nearly the opposite of what it is, and
so the state of the world would be
almost reversed. We are for the most
part unhappy because the world is an
unkind world. But the world is only
unkind for the lack of kindness in the
individuals who compose it.-Fred-
