POLICE PRAISED
FOR PREVENTING.
ACCIDENTS HERE.
Home Guards Come in for Com
mendati0n for Manner They
Handled Crowds

The admirable way in which the po-
lice department assisted by the Home
Guards protected the city yesterday
and handled the large crowds that
thronged the streets from early morn
ing to late at night, as we'll as the
huge volume of automobile traffic
was highly complimented this morn
ing by city officials and citizens Of
the city. "s-
Not a complaint was filed with the
police department., not home robbed,
a baby lost, pocket picked, store en-
tered or auto accident in spite of the
fact that the evil-inclined usually
flock to cities when celebrations such
as that given here on Wilson day are
held.
1t is taken as indicative of the able
manner in which Chief of Police Chris
Martineson has directed the work of
the police department in recent years
that Bismarck has been notably free
of criminal depredations of /any kind,
with the exception of an occasional
slight crime.
City Grateful to Guard
Chris Bertsch city commissioner,
who has supervision over the police
department, said this morning "On
behalf of the city | want to thank
the members of the Home Guard who
so willingly volunteered to aid the
police department in handling the
crowds during the parade, protected
the strangers within the city, directed
traffic so, creditably and yet never
lost their tempers, or appeared rough
or ungentlemanly Their task was
exceedingly difficult and the visitors
have expressed themselves as we'll
pleased with the courteous treatment
they received from the members of the
regular force and the Home Guard"
Mayor A. w. Lucas also praised the
local police department for the pro-
lection it afforded the city and COM
plimented the splendid manner in
which the Home Guards cooperated
with the police. 1T could not have
been better" said Mayor Lucas this
morning, "and the whole city feels
proud that such fine body of men
are willing to volunteer their SER
vices and perform their difficult work
so WE'LL

DENEY LODGE ASSERTION
The minority denied the claim put
forward in Chairman Lodges report
that the peace conference still was in
session and has power "tos bring Ger
man representatives to Paris" saying
such power of compulsion had been ex-
hausted and that Germany" had closed
the chapter by signing and by ratify-
ing"
IF an amended treaty is not signed
by Germany" the report added, 'then
l. Is in none of it's parts binding on
her"
The report mentioned twelve con-
cessiOns the United States would lose
by failure to ratify the treaty these
including industrial and economic ad-
vantages and agreements.
TO DESTROY LEAGUE "
Reservations proposed by the major
iry the report said were "for the pur-
pose of destroying the league which
has stood "the test of world wide crit
icism and unlimited attack" -.
The minority urged that the work of
the peace conference be confirmed
and the peace of the world advanced
by ratification Of the treaty. described
as the best hope of the world "even if
like all instrumentalities it be not
divinely perfect in every detail"
INDUSTRIAL WORLD FERMENT
The report contended that the in
dustrial world was "in ferment," the
financial world in doubt and commerce
haulted while delay on the treaty had
been caused "by the majority Of a COM
mittee known to be out Of harmony
with the majority of the senate and
the majority of the people," This was
declared to be government by obstruc-
ton as we'll as by minority.

AIR TOURISTS TO
DROP IN ON OUR.
FAIR CITY SOON
1O2 Officers and Men Coming
With Government Caravan
of Birdmen Soon

It has been definitely announced that
Fargo, Jamestown and Bismarck will
lie included in the itinerary of the All
American Pathfinders, whose first an
nual coast-to-coast tour is now under
way.
AS the tourists have no regular
schedule, the exact date of arrival in
Fargo is not known. G.. N.Keniston,
secretary of the Bismarck Commercial
club, has arranged for landing field
at Fort Lincoln.
This aerial caravan, which includes
nine biplanes, six balloons and train
Of motor trucks, is the beginning Of a
nationwide campaign of education to
acquaint the American public with the
actual workings of the air service,
which played such an important part
In the recent war.
When it was announced that his tour
was to be undertaken, Senator Nc Cum
ber arranged to have stop made in
Fargo, and Congressman George NJ.
Young had stops included at James
town and Bismarck. Mr.. Young had
been negotiating for another squadron
of flyers previous to this later tour, and
when plans for the earlier exhibitions
We're abandoned, the war department
agreed to include Jamestown and Bis
marck in the greater tour of the Path
finders. Therefore, the squadron will
make the jump directly from st. Paul
to Fargo, and following the other steps
within the state will proceed on to
Miles City, Mont.
SPEED IS NECESSARY --
There was tremendous competi-
ton among the cities along the pro-
posed route for consideration by the
authorities in charge of the flight, but
since it was recognized that the tour
to the coast must be terminated before
the coming Of cold weather, it was
necessary to limit the stopping places
to very few cities in each state.
The work of conducting the cam
paign is being carried on by the war
department, and on Wednesday, Aug.
IL, complete earial squadron left
Hazelcourt field, Mineola, L. T., to pro-
ceed upon the most extensive, specta-
cular and instructive pathfinding ever
undertaken in this country.
The unit will comprise % coMmis-
stoned officers and so enlisted men, all
experts especially fitted for their re-
spective duties.
The unit is in the field fully pre-
pared to function and maintain itself
in every way.

ans of Sioux county to greet President
Wilson. $.
Because grain crops have not been

Kitch, to blooded livestock, in whose
breeding the Indians have made re-
markable strides during the last few
years. Red Tomahawk is president
of the fair association and Basil Two
Bears, son of old Chief Two Bears,
one Of the most famous Indian leaders
the reservation has known, is secre-
tary. Tomahawk and Two Bears were
in charge of the wonderfully success

reservation who were here to greet
their Great White Father on Wednes
day were Red Tomahawk. Gold Hand,
Basil Two Bears and Asa Little Grow,
who succeeded A. G. Wells as govern
ment farmer on Standing Rock.
President Wilson showed a lively
interest in the progress which his
redskin wards are making on Standing
Rock. He was informed that the res
ervaton had 134 enlstments for SER
vice in the worlds war and that the
physical standard of these men was
very high, their loss during the flu
epidemic being only one percent,
which was much lower than that from
any other reservation.
The president was informed that
Major James S. Mclaughlin of Wash
ington, D. c., and Major James B..
Kitch, agent at Standing Rock, sitting
as a competency board, have just be-
slowed full citizenship rights on 200
more Indians, who receive their fees
patent, and that of an Indian popula-
ton of S,400, 700 adult males, or more
than 60 percent of the whole num-
ber of male adults, are now full
fledged citizens, Independent and max
ing a substantial livlihood for them
selves as farmers and stockmen.
The stork is working on the Stand
ing Rock. Of the total population of
3,400. 91S are children of school age,
Major Kitch doesn't do great deal
of boasting, but he is mighty proud
of his people and of the fact that OF
the Sioux under fifty years of age
fully ninety percent speak English.

To Consult Peoplo

20 consult People
Mr.. Wilson said he had come west
to consult" with the people in the
light of circumstances which affect
ed the whole world. Everywhere, he
declared, the human heart beats the
same, and on both sides of the ocean
there was sincere desire that there
should be no more wars.
1t was a mistake therefore, the
president continued, to debate the
peace treaty as if it were an ordinary
treaty. 1t was not merely a. treaty
with Germany, he said, but a treaty
effecting a settlement of the affairs
of the world.
And it is treaty or no treaty."
he added. 1T is this treaty because
there can be no other.
This settlement is the first in
ternational settlement that is based on
the happiness Of the average people
throughout the world. 1t is a peoples
treaty and l venture the prediction
that it is not for parliaments or
congresses to attempt to alter it.
1T is a severe treaty. the president
went on, "but justly so. ONE Of the
men who had called it unduly harsh,"
he added, were criticising the admin
istration a year ago because they
thought the United States would be
too easy with Germany.
"They were pitiless then," he said,
they are pitiful now
The Basic Principle
The basic principle of the treaty,
said Mr.. Wilson, was that the terri.
tory everywhere belong to the peo-
pie who live upon it. 1t was the labor
iOus work of many minds, he added,
and has very few compromises in it,
following in general American specifi-
cations. Should it fail, he declared, it
would be impossible to get together
again the elements necessary to make
new settlement. The United States
either must take the treaty or play
a lone hand in world affairs.
eff you are going to play lone
hand" he said, "the hand that you
play must have a weapon in it. And
the weapon must be all the young
men of the country, and the business
of the country must pay the piper
The league might not prevent all
wars, he said, but 10 percent insurance
was better than none.
The president said he was "just as
sure of what the verdict of this ma
tion will be as if it had already been
rendered" His contact with the plain
people had convinced him, he said,
that the United atSets wanted the
league of nations.
