Railway Commission
Will Oppose Certain
Rate And Rail Bills

Bismarck. N. D.. July 1.-THE
North Dakota railway commission
has Joined other state goards In q pro
test against the Pomerene bill and
the Cummings bill, now before Cong
ress. and each of which would greatly
abridge the pre-war powers Of states
to regulate rates and rail service. The
Pomerene bill would deprive state
railway commissions of all powers
over rates, the regulation OF service,
the esta hlishment Of stations. cross
ings. functions, etc.. and would place
this authority in the hands OF the
interstate commerce commission. The
bill would perpetuate to q
large extent the powers which the
United states supreme court has
ruled were conferred upon the
federal railway administration by ths
acts Of congress and the proclamation
OF president Wilson placing the car
riers under federal control for the
period OF the war.

THE HANSON BOOM.

The gubernatoria boom for Mayor Hanson Of
Seattle which grows out Of his recently made
record as an executive willing to act fearlessly
against the mob is based seemingly upon the fact
that at pinch Mr. Hanson stood pat for the bal
lot as the only means of revolution, proving that,
however radical he was at least consistently an
advocate of government by the people.
Mr. Hanson demonstrated adherence to prn-
ciple in a situation in which weaker man might
have contented himself with obedience to an ele-
ment which he had relied upon in politics and
which had relied upon him.
The radical who says he believes in the SOW
ereignty of the people, and not in the rule of the
people by class, is seen and heard everywhere in
politics, but often he proves, under the acid test
OF circumstance, nothing more than the advocate
of class If that class is laWlesS he indorses its
laWlesSneSS and has ready an argument in its de
Tense. Doubtless many of the Anarchists in Sc
attic relied upon Mayor Hanson. Their dsap-
pointment was proof Of his sincerity
BolsheviSm in the ascendant in Russia is not
popular The BolshevistS are not the masses, but
of class which, as a writer upon Russian affairs
has said, got into power by promises and remain
in power by the use Of machine guns They are
not rs per cent or SO per cent of the Russian
masses. They are not the people.
In opposing BolShevism in Seattle. Mayor
Hanson opposed class, advocating the people
of Seattle-hardly less directly the people of the
United States-and their government, a govern
mnet of the people by the people, not by a class.
The office-holder who does not bow to class
because he had its support in politics, and who
will not parley with that class when it promises
the disestablishnent of law and order by out
laws led by professional opponents Of disorder
and destructiveness, may not be in all respects
qualified to govern a state, but he possesses two
qualifications without which no man can be an
ideal governor. They are honesty and backbone.

WAIT AND SEE.

1t will be great relief to the world when the
decisions Of the Peace Conference are made gen
orally and fully public. The public has really
waited with considerable patience for this pub
lcity and has realized that the tremendous is
sues at stake made delay inevitable.
There seems to be creeping into public opin-
ion both here and abroad the feeling that there
is tendency in certain quarters to make the
peace terms unduly easy for Germany. It is
more than limited that America is not interested
in maintaining as strict policy as is desired by
both the French and the British public.
With the publishing of the peace terms it
will doubtless appear that this nervousness was
premature. The people of the United States
have not forgotten in so short time either the
sufferings of France and her allies the insults,
trickery and conspiracy which have been aimed
lat their own security.
Any people which in any sense compromises
with Germany, which fails to put her in her
proper place as defeated and despicable trail
tor TO mankind, would be resented by the entire
American public as failing to express either their
true sentiments with regard to their own safely
OF their honorable intentions with regard to
their allies. Nor is it possible that they have
been represented as having any other feeling.
Fairness and common sense forbid either un-
certain conjecture or uniformed criticism
Even tie doubters owe it 70 themselves to wait
and see.

AN ARTISTIC REVOLT.

One of the reasons for the Pickford-Nart-
Chaplin Fairbanks revolt against the motion
picture distributors seems to be that the latter
automatically require happy ending to every
film, while the quartet of actors declare that
pictures should be true to life and great end
ing for picture isn't always the happy one"
From the artistic standpoint, the actors are
absolutely right. Imagine Dore's great labors,
with hugging match the finale. Imagine
.s,i II >lL.alOn. With Hamlet anC Onhel;
facially gummed together and no floor laid out
with characters full of rat poison or pig-tick-
ersi
Besides, the public which pays actors and
film distributors surely is sick Of the everlasting
kss-kiss windup Of film tragedy, comedy and
romance. Indeed, we've often heard folks is
suing from the movie theatre use expressions
such
THAT was fine piece I cried every min
ute"
After all, people are best pleased with that
which touches them, inside, and the things true
to life are what touch Exhibitors, theatrical
and otherwise frequently make the mistake Of
exclusively trying for the uncommon climaXes

"OPEN DIPLOMACY"

The promise of open covenants is now mace
good.
The plan of the League of Nations was not so
Openly arrived at" as President Wilson had leo
Americans to expect Possibly the preliminary
work could not have been done in the full glare
of publicitv-there were too many conflicting IN
terestS to reconcile, too many sensitive statesmen
and nations to soothe and harmonic. However
that may be- here we have the Constitution OF the
League representing the best thought of the in
ternatonal convention of diplomats at Paris,
frankly submitted to the people of the world for
their approval.
The Peace Conference is not yet committed
to it. The constitution is still open to amend
ment. No final action is going to be taken at
Paris until all the nations concerned have had
emple opportunity to study the plan and register
their opinion.
Never before did any peace conference go 50
far as this. 1t has always been the practice of
peace delegates to agree among themselves, more
Secretly than the Paris conference has done, and
then submit their conclusions to their own gov
ernments for approval. That approval has oft
en- been given in secret, the nations most inter-
ested KNOWN gonly in the vaguest way what they
were committed to. This is a referendum to
the people Every nation joining the league will
be able to do SO with its eyes open, and will have
an opportunity to suggest revision before COM
hitting itself irrevocably.
This gives the American people double OPP
portunity for discussion and criticism, because
of the fact that even after the constitution of
the League has been formally adopted at Paris it
will have to come back to the United States Sen
ate for final approval. Thus no American citi-
zen can fail to know precisely what the United
States is committed to-
1t may now be taken for granted that other
important undertakings of the Peace Confer
ence, particularly the terms to be imposed on
Germany will be handled in a similarly open
way giving the Allied public a chance to criti
else before they are definitely adopted.
