WELL DONE, TED

Major Theodore Roosevelt, Jr, has been officially
commended. together with the men under his command.
for exceptionally gallant service on the field Of battle.
The American people will be glad Of this. for the young
mans sake, and for his fathers sake.
Theodore Roosevelt, ST., has had his ups and downs
In popular favor. There was a time when 1t would prob
ably not have been incorrect to describe him as the most
popular man in the United States. There have been
other times when his popularity waned, and what people
who had been lavish with their praise were equally law
ish with their denunciations. But these expressions were
things Of the moment, and beneath them all wa. a
strong underlying feeling Of respect, admiration and af-
lection for the man for his forcefulness, his enthusiasm,
his intense Amercanism and the universally of his
human nature.
Because of the existence Of this very strong, and
very real sentiment toward the father, something of 1t
has been transmitted to the sons. The four boys are
In the war. and all are doing fine work, work Of which
we may be proud. and work which must gladden. the
heart Of the father. Therefore, when the news~came
that one of them has distinguished himself in a special
manner, and that his achievement has been oncially
recognized. the American people will share in the pride
that must be felt by the father in the knowledge that
his son is deserving well Of his country.

today o John eteen. and With him the clean and capa-
BILE men who have been placed on the Independent ticket
for Republican nominations. This paper has devoted
time and labor to the promotion OF the campaign Of these
men. because It has been convinced that the public IN
terest demanded their nomination.
By tomorrow morning the voting will DO over, and
most Of the votes will have besn counted. The Herald
OF Thursday morning. and the issues for the days follow.
ing until the full count is made known. will be devoted
not to the advocate Of any particular SGT Of candidates.
and not to an attempt to create the belief that this or
that candidate has been nominated. but to statements as
to how many votes each candidate received. according
to the best information available.
Before an election The Herald advocates such candi-
dates As appeals to its sense Of what the public interest
demands. After the election this paper never claims"
nor "concedes' anything. It's sole effort ia to ascertain
the facts and to present them to its readeraL
Tho Herald has. this year as in the past, completed
elaborate arrangements for the collection Of election re-
turns, and these returns will be published In tho various
issues of the paper for which they become available.
The figures will be presented, as they have always been.
without bias or color.
In no case is it ever possible to present full returns
on the morning after election. In some precincts the
count is slow. and those in charge Of the returns are
tardy in reporting them. Unless atmospheric disturb
ances interfere with the working Of the wires it will be
possible to give a fair proportion of the vote from near
ly every county. That. will show what candidates are
leading. and by about what proportion Of the vote, On
that basis it is possible for any intelligent person TO- es-
innate with reasonable closeness the final result. If the
election is close 1t is always in doubt until all the votes
are reported. If any candidate has a large plurality that
fact is indicated in the early and partial returns.
The Herald's reports after election will consist Of
the presentation of the figures <eceivea from official
sources throughout the state up to the hour of going to
press; and Of estimates Of the probabilities made on tho
basis Of those figures. The actual returns as published
may be relied on as accurate. as far as they go. The
making of estimates is a matter Of judgment. and II the
reader does not approve Of the estimates made by the
paper he is at liberty to take the figures as reported and
make estimates Of his own.

''Kitchen Police"
Job No Punishment
For Negro Soldiers

Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky, June Is.
Company officers in charge of negro
recruits who have been received here
recently are wondering what sort of
a punishment they should evolve. for
petty officers to take the place of the
time honored Kitchen police"
Kitchen police is an assignment
as assistant to the company cook. 1t
ear peeling potatoes. securing of
pots and swinging heavy mops. The
average white soldier thoroughly
hates the Job.
Much to their surprise, officers have
found that Kitchen police" is no
punishment to most Of the negro re-
cruits. Indeed. most Of them con-
slider it a treat to be able to keep
close to the source of food supply.
One captain has quit giving sentences
to Kitchen police" as punishment
since n of his men came to him and
asked to be allowed to keep the, as
sigrment.

A GREAT LOYALTY MEETING

y Is not stretching the facts to say that the meeting
held in the auditorium on Tuesday evening was not sur
passed in excellence. If. in deed. it was ever equalled,
by any political meeting held in the city Of Grand Forks.
From the opening Of the meeting. until its close. the
program was replete with good things, and there were
mono that were not good. The music by the band. the
erect soldierly appearance of the East. Grand Forks
Home Guards. the size Of the crowd, the evidences Of in
terest shown by the people Of East Grand Fork, ana
other Minnesota points, and the spirit Of the meeting
were all worthy Of the occasion, and the addresses.
which. Of course. were the main features, were all that
could have been desired. The presiding ofncer: Mr..
Burtness, was happy and forceful in his Introductory re-
marks; MI. Bangs, in his brief presentation Of the war
Savings Stamp appeal, was at his very best; Mr. wick
stated his. position on the important issues clearly and
manfu1ly: and the chief speaker, Governor Burnout.t,
delivered an address which was an inspiration In patrio-
@tisn and good citizenship.
+ is to be regretted either that the Minnesota pr,-

GOVERNMENT BY

We have heard a good deal about government By
Injunction, and some very emphatic protests have been
made against that method Of regulating public affairs
We have in this country some evidences Of what may
be called government by rider, which is fully as repre-.
hsnsible as government by injunction is sometimes said
to be.
We have in our legislative bodies the practice of at
taching to a bill an amendment which is known as a
rider. An amendment Of this character introduces mat
ter which is, not germane to the subject matter of the
bill itself, and the %expedient is used for the purpose OF
securing the passage of legislation which could not be
passed on its own merits. The rider being attached to
q bill. bill and rider are frequently passed together.
members voting for the combination who would not
vote for the rider alone.
Just now the effort is being made to enact prohibi.
ton legislation by attaching a prohibition rider to the
agricultural appropriation bill. The plan is supported
on the ground that material of food value is used up
in the manufacture Of intoxcants. and that in the in
terest OF food conservation this should be stopped.
An excellent argument can be made in favor of
cants. at least during the war. But that subject should
be presented on its own merits, and disposed of as a
separate matter. II, after all the facts are presented,
1t is considered wise to undertake complete national
prohibition. we'll and good. But let the subject be pre-
scented frankly for what it is, an effort to enact prohibi-
appropriate in this case to suggest that every key should
stand on its own bottom, but at any rate, every cause
should stand on its own feet.

When that happy day arrives we will

response was magnificent. They sent
me money, and boxes and barrels con-
tanning all kinds of substantials for the
Christmas celebration. | hope that this
year the contributions will be even
more numerous, and, If possible, more
substantial. | hope that everyone who
sent a contribution last year will send
one this year and that many who were
deprived of that pleasure last year viii
| avail themselves of this opportunity.
The men like good smokes, and they
like fruits, and candies. n cakes, and
| preserves, and nuts, and turkeys, and,
in fact, ee%yrything that goes into the
| making Of a successful Christmas.
/ am sending this appeal to the good
people of my state, with full conf
! dence that the response will be mag
nificent.
Please start the boxes about the
18TH, so as to have them reach us in
abundance Of time.
