Government revelations about DR.. Edward A

as an alleged pro-German agent. This statement
was in connection with the deportation Of S. s.
Mcclure from England, the facts Of which were
brought out at the time. The Journal said in
part:
'rAGr. Mcclure was led into his present en-
tanglement by DR.. E. A Rumely, one Of the
chief propagandist agents OF the Germans in
this country, who acted as the dummy in the
purchase of The New York Mail from Henry
L. Stoddard last year, and whose activities in
this direction were exposed several months
ago by The Journal. The real purchaser was

The editor Of The LitchviHe Bulletin makes
the following explanation Of the North Dakota
newspaper mans difficulty in making a living:
Making a living by publishing a. newspa-
per in North Dakota at the present time can
be distinctly classed a precarious occupa-
ton Up at Parshall, Editor Larn is suffer-
ing an extensive boycott by his advertisers
for supporting the league. At Fargo, The
Courier-News has experienced the same
thing and for the same reason. At Valley
City The Times Record is boycotted by it's
farmer subscribers for being against the
league. At Napoleon, Editor Bryant is in the
same boat Editor Trubshaw. We could
give a dozen other instances, but let these
four suffice. And thus peace and harmony
and brotherly love continues to rage with
undated fury over the prairies Of North Da-
kota. AS there is a federal law against boy
colt we hope to see some Of the instgators
of this unfair and un-Amercan attempt to
strangle free speech in the state placed be-
hind the prison bars Of Fort Leavenworth.
That's where they belong.
The Page Record makes the following COM
ment on the work Of the State Council Of De-
Tense:
might be done by the council Of defense Of
this state and already some good work has
been done along productive lines There Is
still much to be accomplished that would be
a credit to the administration. Putting an
unreasonable censorship on newspapers that
criticize the administration can hardly be
classed conmendable".
The editor Of The stutsrnan County Press
training, follows:
There are those who protest vigorously
against universal military training, but there
should not be a, single person to protest
against universal physical training The de-
nlands Of the nation for men has denonstrat-
ed very forciby and clearly that the men Of
the nation not so strong and vrile as they
should be, that there is too large a percent
age who are defective to q greater or less eX-
tent. The men accepted in the national
forces have to be built up and defects cor
rected before they are Of the largest physical
ability.
Based on the mortality statistics Of the
Allied armies a soldiers chances are that he
will live five years longer because Of the
physical training.
THAT he is freer from disease in the army
than in civil life and
THAT he has better physical care at the
front than at home.
Tn other wars from 10 to Is men died from
disease to one from bullets, while in this war
one man dies from disease to every 10 from
bullets-and the same statistics show that
every soldier has 20 chances Of coming home
to one chance Of being killed 40 chances Of
recovering from wounds to one chance Of dy-
ing from them.
