In part, Mr. Doyle said:
II purpose now, and at various
times in this campaign, to discuss
economic issues, and it is my hope
that such discussions may pc general
and thorough throughout the state.
to the end that the faIlacy OF the
program advanced by leaders Of tbs
Nonpartisan league and supported by
the state administration, may be
clearly shown to the citizens of our
state. am confident that such dis
cussion will bring about a more set
tied condition Of the public mind,
thus permitting united effort in the
support of the federal government
and resultant absence Of opport-
unity for political adventures to ex-
plot the people by the agitation Of
false issues for private gain.
THE issues of themselves are
probably the most unusual in
character and far-reaching in con-
sequence Of any which have confront
ed the people OF any state since
the Civil war. They are issues which
are of equal important to all the
people of the state, because our in
terests are so closely allied that any
legislation detrimental to one class
of people must necessarily be det-
rimental to all the people, while
legislation beneficial to any class Of
people must be correspondingly
helpful to all the people.
Socialist Doctrine and Leaders.
For many years there has been a
political party in the state known
as the Socialist party, whose tenets
of faith and ideas of government. diff
fer widely from those of either the
Republican or Democratic parties.
The writer's and speakers represent
ing. the Socialist party talk much Of
democracy and declare that they
favor what they are pleased to term
a pure democracy, but at the same
time they preach program of gov
ernment, which would, in. my judg-
ment, IL put into practical operation
bring about a condition as far re-
moved from democracy as one could
we'll imagine. democracy as the
definition, of the term was taught to
me and as I understand it, is gov
errnent deriving its powers from
those whom it governs, a govern
ment whose laws are made with the
idea of absolute justice and equality
between its citizens, a government
giving the widest possible latitude
for the individual citizens personal
initiative and development, so long
as he in no way infringes upon the
rights of his fellow man. In short, a
pretty good concrete example Of a
democracy, as I understand it, Is the

These statements of mine will be
answered. But if the past is
criterion for the future it will not be
by argument, but by TRADE of per-
sonal abuse and slander, and by the
statement of the New Gang Press
of the leaders of the Nonpartisan
league that 1.-The question before the
people is the measure Of democ-
racy', which is to be enjoyed. Any
one can use the phrase, the measure
of democracy. Lenine and TrotZky
used 1t countless times in stating
to the people of Russia that they
were to enjoy a full measure OF
democracy. This is merely a vague
platitude and means nothing.
"All available authorities on the
situation in Russia at this time
agree that probably a great many
thousands Of the poor people OF Rus

this full measure of democracy as

the measure of democracy, big bust

no place will they stand upon the
platform and discuss with you the
probable effect their economic pro-
gram will have upon the future of
this state.

ton to another popularity of these

their gang press, he is attacking the

have no doubt that The Fargo

that Doyle in his speech attacked the
farmers of North Dakota. They will
know, of course, that this is not
true. They have made this state
ment probobly a hundred tir1es re-
garding different men. and In every
instance they know the statement
was not true. But one Of the many
of this morning echo Of

some instances notattons by Lenine
or Trotzky, the Bolsheyik leaders
now shown to have been in the pay
of Germany since long before they
ovedthrew Russia's new demovrattc
government and virtually turned the
country over to the Teutons. There
are illuminating explanatory notes
by Edgar Sisson, OF the committee
on public information, who directed
the investigation which resulted in
the disclosures.
Had Fifty Million RubIes.
One of the reichsbank memoranda,
dated last January, announces TO the
commisar of foreign affairs (Lenine)
that 50,000,000 rubles of gold has
been placed to the credit at Stock
holm OF the representatives of the
commissars to cover the cost OF
Red Guards and agitators. Another
of a few days later tells Of a credit
of 100000 r1Ibles for the assistant
naval commisar in the far east, who
is entrusted with the task of carry
ing off or destroying the great Amer
fcnn and Japanest< stores OF war
material at VladiYostok-a scheme
that probably was well under way
when the landing of American and
allied forces at Vladivostok ended
the sway of the Bolshevik there.
A resolution adopted by the Ger
man commercial banks under the
auspices of the reichsbank outlines
an elaborate program for control Of
Russia by Germany and the bar
ring of America and the allies from
the Russian commercial and indus
trial field after the war. What has
happened to this scheme is not def
initely known, but it is suggested
that 1T may be the subject of one
of the secret sections of the Ger
man Bolshevik treaty.
Betraying Own Friends.
How Leni1e and Trotzky were be-
traying their Socialist friends along
with Russia is disclosed by a sharp
note TO Lenine from the Eachricllten
bureau demanding to know what
steps he would take TO make good
his personal promise that Socialistic
and agitationai literature would not
be circulated among German troops.

The Turk, under the principal OF

The collapse of Russia has removed
for the Turk the fear that Cosctantino-
pie will fall into the hands of the

International control is looked upon
skeptically by European nations and
has been proven weak in application.
Hence the Turk believes he may be left

COPENHAGEN
WORLD MART

Copenhagen, Denmark, Dec. ga
new world center in the business mart
of the world has been established dur
ing the last four years of war. Co
penhagen, the Queen of the North"
with a population now close to a mil
lion souls, has slowly diverted the
trade of Hamburg, the once famous
shipping center, to her own docks.
The Copenhagen of 1914, the city
of little business, is far from the
same city in 1918, the city of big"
business. Millianaires, who deal with
the Morgans and Lloyds, abound in
the city. They are swinging Denmark
in the forefront as a medium between
western and eastern Europe.
The directors of the banks, II you
get chance to speak to them, all tell
you the same story. Deposits, mort
cages, loans have all doubled, trebled,
and, in many cases, quadrupled. The
insurance companies are faced with
premium incomes running into mill
lions.
Copenhagen may soon be marked
out as a free harbor among the ship
pers of the world, and, in the near
future, a line of giant steamers may
be running between this city and New
York.

When our boys get off of the train,
or along the road they are met by a
Red Cross Canteen worker who gives
them a cup of coffee, sandwich and
a cheerful smile.
When they are over there on cold.
rainy nights, when they are lonely,
sad and homesick, there is the Red
Cross with pianos, victrolas, songs and
refreshments.
When your boys and my boys are
in the trenches among the mud and
rats, fighting the foe of every thing
that is mercifu1, pure and right, there
is also the Red Cross with hot re-
freshing drinks, and some place where
they can write home to us.
When they are lying wounded on
the battle field a Red Cross stretch
bearer comes and tenderly lifts them
up on a stretcher and takes them
to hospital where they are taken
good care of until they are well.
Then when the yare sent to con-
valescent camp also there are the Red
Cross workers to comfort and amuse
them.
When they have leave, they are not
like the French and the English, for
they can go home, but how about our
own dear boys they can't come home;
the only home they have over there
are the rest camps of the Red Cross.
Don't you want to make these homes
just as pleasant and comfortable as
you can?
Some of the these boys have never
been away from home before. Some
have never left their home town be-
fore. How will these boys feel at be-
ing thrust into a strange land where
there are strange people who speak
a strange language. Here is also
where the great mother comes in on
her mission Of mercy to comfort and
cheer these boys.
Then when they are sent home how
much the Red Cross did for them
canteen places along the road and so
many things for their comfort.
But how can all of this be accom-
plished without money?
What would our boys do without
this wonderful mother.
This is one of the many reasons why

TABLE LINENS AND SCARFS
Blocked Effect Done in Colors or
White According to Character
of the Embroidery.

A curious development in table lin
ems and scarfs for the bedroom is the
blocked effect done either in colors
or white according to the character of
the accompanying embroidery and in
various ways. The reason for this is
rather obvious. Now that fine linens
have become so scarce the pleasure of
looking at pure unbrOken surface of
soft white linen is not for the house
wife of today. Her l"linens" will very
likely be cOttOns for some time, and
anything which will break the cotton
eXpanse and make the finish less no
ticeable is welcome.
Hemstitching by machine or hand
is one way of making these checkered
cloths Outline or COUGHING is effec-
tive too. The blocks vary according
to the size of the piece. but six inches
Is good working size for most of
them. Small motifs may then appear

being somewhat handicapped in their

by the increased cost of the merchan,
disc. In this industry, as in many
others, the question of deliveries Is
paramount. Labor Is none too plenti-
ful now, and The possibility of fur,
