LET LOOSE THE BAND.

(By Edmund Vance Cooke.)
The White Flag is hoisted the kaiser's quitter
He swallows the pill which is bilious and bitter!
The last of the breed of autocracy's litter
Is whipped, and his snarl is reduced to tWitter!

The pit which he digged crumbes faster and faster
And the hell of his hopeessness deeper and vaster:
So be it forevefs when my mad master ( %~> q
Shall covet the world through another's disaster!
The boast and the bombast which burbed and BUNDLED
Is still as the tomb, for the kaiser has crumbed
The last gun is fired and the last Hunis humbled
And Potsdam the damned, the attainted and tumbed!

RETRIBUTIVE JUSTICE.

The retributive features of the Allied victory
and the peace terms imposed stand out IN bold re-
lief as the first flush of success and JOY passes
away.
Versailles, the scene of Germany's triumph in
1871, is now the scene of her humiliation. Forty
seven years ago a dark chapter was written IN
French history within those historic halls To-
day the disgrace has been wiped out and ter
rible but just retributon dealt the Hun invader.
Germany today stands in the same terrible lso-
lation as did France in the closing hours OF the
Franco-Prussan war, a conflict which sodlned
Germany under the militaristic regime OF the now
discredited Hohenzollerns. .
Versailles, the meeting, place Of the Supreme
War Council, has figured in historic events. At
this little town the treaty of peace between Great
Britain and the United States signed in 1888.
The Allies were able to overWheln Germany be-
cause of victory won by unity. 1t was the Su-
preme War Council that brought about that unity
and placed Foch in command of all forces.
A splendid example of what North Dakota may
expect under the political ownership control and
operation of public utilities is found in the recent
change on the capitol street railway, the only ut
ity in which North Dakota has had an opportunity
to lose money to date. A man who had run the
capitol street car for fifteen years and who in all
that time had not subjected the state to single
damage suit was removed, simply because he had
not voted the Nonpartisan ticket, and man who
had no other qualifications so far as we can
learn, has been given the job because he did vote
the Nonpartisan ticket. One of the initial results

Townley puts on the livery of pa
triotism when his talks bring him in
to a cluod of suspicion all his
protestations must go for nothing
now when it is discovered that the
man he has named as a hand-pick-

on the subject of war.
Possibly the correct explanation
for the choice by Mr.. Townley of Mr.
Lindbergh as. his candidate, aside
from the expressions of his position
on the war as just quoted may be
found in the following excerpts from
other pages of his book:

Citizens Haze Big Re-
sponsibility in Coming
War Savings Drive

Every citizen of this county will
have patriotic duty to perform dur
ing War Savings Pledge Week from
June 9th to 18th, by subscribing for
as many of these government sec
urities as he can stand, these to be
purchased on weekly or monthly
basis during the balance of this year.
This is the declaration made by A. F.
Strebel, Chairman of the N. w.
Stearns County War Savings Stamp
Committee today.
"This county must be among the
leaders in reaching its quota of War
Savings Stamp Sales" he said "Too
many persons have looked upon the
War Savings Campaign as mere
child's play when the reverse is only
too true. 1t is an investment that
belongs to every man, woman and
child in this county and one that is
backed by the unlimited resources of
the government.
It should be remembered that buy
ing War Stamps is not gift. They
represent demand security in the
United States that pays four per cent
interest, compounded quarterly, ar
which cannot sell below par. Although
such practice is discouraged, War
Stamps can be redeemed at local
postoffces on ten days notice, plus
the accrued interest. In other words,
they may be placed in almost the
same class as interest-paying currency
and are pust as staple.
Minnesota's quota is $4,000, 600
about two-thirds the allotment Of the
Third Liberty Loan, which, in itself,
shows the enormous task confrontins
us in order to sell out the quota the
Treasury has apportioned as our
share for aiding in financing the war.
Every person in this county, by saw
ing from non-essential expenditures,
can buy his quota Of War Savings
Stamps this year without feeling any
undue burden by doing SO. He also
will be buying the finest possible
security and thereby be adding to his
income"

Governor Burnquist

Governor Burnquist's announce
ment of his candidacy for reelection
has been received with reclamation
throughout Minnesota, and especially
by the most thoughtful citizens who
have this year placed patriotism above
all party considerations. This is con-
dition without precedent in Mime.
sofa and, with the primary goal safely
passed, Gov. Burnquist should re-
ceive one of the greatest popular
votes ever given candidate in Min
nesota. The reason is obvious. The
Governors loyal support of the adj
ministration and his untiring zeal in
making Minnesota foremost in sup
porting the war and furnishing men,
have made large appeal to the loyal
people of Minnesota. The throngs
which gather to hear the Governor
on all public occasions is evidence of
a growing popularity in Minnesota,
and the Herald welcomes this oppor
tunity of commencing the governors
attitude upon the more vital ques-
tions of the day. The Governor voices
encouragement and hope, and ex-
presses loyalty we now expect of
every citizen whether he be an office
holder or a voter. The Governor has
a good record as chief executive of
the state. 1t is significant that the
opposition we find apparently grows
out of the Governors appointment of
the safety commission which has been
active in stamping out disloyalty in
Minnesota.
In announcing his candidacy, Gov
ernor Burnquist takes the stand that
twin the war" is the only slogan for
the American people. For that reason
he will make no political speeches be-
for the primary election and his pub
lie utterances will be confined largely
to patriotic gatherings. In state
ment to the people he says:
Gin filing for a second term as gov
ernor," the statement runs, 81 wish
to say, in accordance with statements
heretofore made by me, that this is
no time to divide our people into
factions through the stirring up of
untimely issues in contests for public
offices.
Though some may feel that our
governmental house needs remodeling,
it is now on fire through the confagra-
tion of war, and the entire structure
may be destroyed if we waste our
time in dissension and argument
about the method of remodeling it,
instead of uniting to put out this
first through the elimination from Of
flee of those who are not only openly
and fearlessly for the cause of Ameri-
ca in this conflict and by the harmon
ious action of us all in doing every
thing we can to win the war.
Personally, therefore, intend to
make no political speeches during the
primary and shall accept, as far as
possible, those invitations to deliver
patriotic addresses which have, up
to this date, received, for feel that,
until the war is won, the diverting Of
the attention of our people through
local politics from the matter of great
est Importance is entirely out of
place."

CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE.

Opponents of Congressman Harold
Knutson are making their campaign
chiefly on the contention that he has
not been loyal to the government. The
Journal-Pres which has followed his
official acts very closely, has asserted
that since the declaration of war he
has been consistently and whole
hearted in his support of the president
and the government in winning the
war.
The Journal-Press today has the
authority of no less person than
Knute Nelson, United States senator
for Minnesota, and whose loyalty and
craftsmanship have been of so high
order that he was drafted for another
term in the senate, and has the en-
thusiastic support of all good citizens,
regardless of political affiliations.
His word will be accepted by the
people of this district without ques.
ton.

The Sale of War SaDing
Stamps in Stearns Coun-
ty Falls Off During April

Herewith will be found a statement
of the record of War Savings and
Thrift stamp sales made by the post
offices in Stearns county district. The
record for April is not as good as
that made for March, which was
anticipated in view of the third Lib
erty Loan drive which took place dur
ing the month. Melrose again made
record sale during the month in
spite of the Liberty Loan and won
first place in the county, Belgrade,
which has also been consistent lead
er in the sale of War Savings and
Thrift Stamps since the campaign
commenced, also held up well during
the month and made just as gooyd a
showing as it did in March. 1t is
again suggested to the postmaster
that he interest the rural carriers and
clerks in the campaign. The big War
Savings stamp sale drive will be in
augurated next month. For this
reason postmasters are especially
urged to bear in mind to make timely
requsition not only for War Savings
and Thrift Stamps but also for Thrift
cards and War Savings certificates.
