pet Animals Sold tor Charity.

In these days, when nearly every body in Britain is giving up something to the cause of the war, pet animals have played a prominent part as a en their dogs and cats to charitable institutions to be auctioned off to raise money for wounded soldiers. So many ~nsalable pets have been offered as to make them a burden to the animal protection societies. At recent sale many of the cats and dogs were so old, dccrepit and dirty that no bids could be oL ,ained for them. that they were handed over to the societies to Dc cut to death by gas.

THAT BILLION BUsHEL CROP.

More bad news for Germany.
The wheat harvest is now in progress
as far north as Kansas. It began in south
ern Kansas on June IL, with ideal weather,
and good supply Of labor.
Cutting is now in full swing in all the
southern half Of the state.
It is quite generally predicted that the
yield will double that of last year; that
it will greatly exceed the last government
estimate; and that it will be virtually free
from rust and bights Of all kinds.
But for the presence of a few weak
spots, where the yield is virtually nothing,
the crop might be bumper one. Where the
wheat grew at all, it is bounteous yield,
going around twenty-five bushels to the
acre. But the average is cut down by
these few bad spots, where the plant did
not come through the fall and winter.
IF fortune smiles on the West for an
other six weeks or two months, that billion
bushel crop the government asked for will
be delivered with something to spare.

and reaching the ears Of person Of draft
age. e IT,. ..
But the act Of June Is has been amend
ed, and the court calls attention to that
fact in a very suggestive way. The court
quotes the amended section, which pro-
vides severe punishment for anyone who
utters at any time or place abusive Ian
guage regarding the form Of government
Of the United States, its military or naval
forces, the flag, the uniform, or the con-
stitution; or who brings any Of them into
contempt by written articles. In brief, the
new law-this is not the courts expressed
view, however, but our own-seems broad
enough to catch anyone who even thinks
disloyal thoughts.
Those who might be inclined to take any
comfort from Judge Amidons ruling on
the original act, if there are any such left
in Dakota, would do well to observe the
warning hidden in the last half Of the de-
cision, and keep close watch on their
words and acts.

A DECISION AND A WARNING.

Judge Amidon's decision handed down
yesterday in case brought under the es-
pi0nage act, shows the limited scope Of
the original act, but it also gives very
timely warning of the broad, and far
reaching nature of the amended act.
The case under consideration was
brought under the act Of June Is, 1917,
and the court held that any seditious Ian
guage in order to be punishable under that
act, must have been uttered in the hearing
of one or more persons belonging to the
military or naval forces or possible mem
bers Of such forces Otherwise, he holds,
it could not be construed as obstructing en-
Istnent. Under that construction, an adj
dress to Women's club, or to men over
the age Of enlistment might reek with
treason but be unpunishable. The court
was not called upon to consider the point
of the speech being quoted In repetition

MOVE OVER. JOHN.

If these Italian brothers Of ours keep on
pulling off these sensational naval raids,
we II have to make old John Bull move over
little on his naval throne and make room
for companion.
The British navy has wonderful and
glorious history, from the days of Sir Rich
ard Grenville and the Revenge" down
through Nelson's time to the Zeebrugge
enterprise. Heroes have made its tradi-
tions. But the Italians are proving that
the sunny skies Of Italy make the same kind
Of heroes as the fogs of old England.
Twice within few weeks, daring little
Italian torpedo boats have gone right into
Austrian naval bases after their prey. They
haven t waited for the "rats to come out"
but have gone in after them. Few details
have been told as yet of the raid of Mon
day morning, when an Italian torpedo boat
sank an Austrian dreadnaught and badly
damaged another, escaping unchanged
itself, and giving very nasty argument
to some destroyers which pursued it. That
story, when it is told, will rank with the
tale Of the British raids on Ostend and
Zeebrugge. It ought to make every italian
hold his head little higher and step out
little more proudly.
Speed the day when we have some
American troops on the Italian front
perhaps under the command of General
Wood-to prove to Italy that we look up
on her as a full fedged ally.

cations Of John o. Hanchett candidate for the
nomination for congress- as follows:
John o. Hanchett, OF Harvey, candidate
for congress in this district, Forded his way
into La Moure Tuesday, and lost no time in
putting himself into social circulation" Mr..
Hanchett is a lawyer-and a mighty good
one. He is not large in stature, but Pope,
the great English poet, was right when in
defense Of his dirpinutive physical frame he
declared-"I must be measured by my soul;

sense Mr.. Hanchett indeed towers above

Of his many excellent qua1ities-his broad
grasp of public issues. his sound character,
his mental attainments ana his sturdy Am
ericantsm-that the Lincoln Republican
league at the recent Minot convention en-
dorsed Mr. Hanchett as the Republican can
didate for congress in the Second district.
Mr.. Hanchett says that this honor came to
him wholly unsolicited, that he is not out
with q scalping knife, but merely desires to
take a trip through the district, inset his old
friends and acquire as many new ones as
possible.
