NEVADA MEN MAY
YET GO OVERSEAS

In order to release men in the
American Expeditionary forces who
desire to return home, the War De-
partment has called for fifty thousand
volunteers for service overseas. Ac-
cording to Colonel John H. Gardner,
United States Army, who is in charge
of the San Francisco recruiting dis
trict, which comprises the States of
California and Nevada, this is a good
plan, in that it will give men who did
not get to go overseas, and those who
may desire to see service overseas. an
opportunity to serve lover there"
Until order is restored in Europe
and stable governments are organized
it will be necessary for the Allies to
maintain troops as an international
police force for the purpose of pre-
serving order. The minority in many
of the countries of Europe is attempt
ing to force anarchistic methods on
the majority, through bolshevism. To
prevent this, the Allies may find it
necessary to maintain forces of SOL
diers for emergencies, and this sys-
TEN is the method to be employed by
the United States in doing its part.
Enlistments of men for this over
seas force are for the term of three
years and immediate service overseas.
Both men who have seen previous
service and those who have not may
be accepted.
Five thousand men for this force
have been accepted throughout the
United States-this since March 20.
A recruiting campaign launched by
the San Francisco recruiting party
during the war obtained this number
of men in two month. california
and Nevada have always been in the
front with voluntary enlistments,"
say the San Francisco recruiting Off
GERS. "and they will furnish their
quota of this fifty thousand"

HOW OLD F|RfMfN
FIXED A CANDIDATE

I'm that hall the plans were laid
for the defeat of F. A. Tritle when
he was the Republican candidate for
Governor" said an old-timer yester-
day, as he gazed at the remaining
walls of the Exempt Firemen's build
ing. says the Virginia Chronicle.
"There was a fire at Tritle's home
in B street, and a diamond ring was
missing; and the next day Tritle
came down town and said some low
down thief of a fireman had. stolen it.
One of the firemen who was on a hose
in an upper room of the residence at
the fire. saw something sparkle on TIE
floor. and stopped down and picked it
up and dropped 1t into his pocket.
He kept on trying to save the build
ing and thought nothing more of his
find until next day, when he heard of
the unkind and uncalled-for remarks
of Tritle. He went TO the fire house
and from his ruined clothes in the
dryer took the ring from one of the
pockets. The diamond was returned
to Mrs. Tritle, and then the firemen
told Tritle what they thought of him.
THE remark ranked in the breasts
of the volunteer flremen who had
risked life and limb to save Tritle's
property, and when he became a can-
didate for Governor some years later
the incident IA recalled and it was
determined to defeat him. The story
was told and repeated wherever there
was a fire company; and. while there
were many stalwart Republicans in
the old Exempts, every one stood pat
and Tritle went down to defeat, al
though every effort had beer made 10
induce the iremen to change their
course in the matter of the unkind
remarks"

Form. OF The Roosevelt Memorial

The purpose Of the Roosevelt Memorial associat1 ton
TO membership in which every person in the United STATE
y eligible, is to commemorate Theodore Roosevelt In
three distinct ways.
First, property at Oyster. Bay, near the home OF
oriai park. and this park will be laid out with regard TO,
the development in a>permahent way Of the outdoor beau
ties which Roosevelt SO dearly loved.
Second, there will be erected ip Washington. the cap
ital Of the nation. an artistic Memorial Of beauty and dig.
nifty, a fit companion to the memorials already erected
to Washin gton and Lincoln.
Third, there will be created and endowed an insutu.
ship which were so close to the heart OF the former presi.
dent.
All Of these features have their proper place. All
make their appeal In the influence which is to be e.
ercised In the Life Of the nation the last named is I'm
measurably Of the greatest importance, and this will 70.
ceive the greatest share Of the attention of the commit.
tee Of able men which has charge OF the. work.
a most gratifying feature, and, in fact, a most essen.
tial one, In the memorial movement, II the spirit Of non.
craftsmanship which charactertxes 1t. Statesmen OF ali
shades Of political opinion have Joined heartily in the
work. Men who were vigorously opposed to Roosevelt
on almost every item Of pubic policy are among the most
enthusiastic supporters Of the memorial movement. and
humble individuals who voted against him regularly and
consistently are glad to participate in the movement 10
perpetuate the memory Of the man whom they recognize
rs a. great American.
unless this spirit characterized the movement Il
would not be worth while.

MEANS MUCH 70 GRAND FORKS

Inc TACT that the Standard Oil company Is arranzing
for the building Of a large plant at Grand Forks from
which to handle its distribution for all northern North
Dakota snd considerable sections Of adjoining states has
moro than . ~transttory meaning for the city. The COM
Dany contemplates the expenditure Of . quarter Of a mil
Non dollars or more at once in the erection Of buildings
ana tho provtsion Of equipment, and one Of the imme-
dtate results viii be the addition OF 100 or more families
p the cHy's population. These thinss OF the.nselvW are
important, and voold merit attention: no matter what the
surrounding circumstances might b.
But this is but = small part Of the real Significance
OF the conapanys decision. The Standard OIL company
u. Of course, the largest concern in its line in the country.
1t Is not only the largest, but the NEST highly Organised.
It employs able men whose sole business ii is to dsvtse
meenods Tor the most effective production and distribu-
ton. for the elimination Of every possible item OF waste.
Its plants are located purely from the business staudpetnt
Political considerations and considerations Of sentiment
are given no place in the making Of its decisions. The
company has no reason for Partially toward Grand
Forks and it feels none. Beyond the ordinary courteu
when men owe to each other always and everywhere
Ehe company owes nothing to the people Of Grand Forks
The city has offered no monetary or other inducements.
and none are expected from it. Grand Forks ia chosen
by this great and successful business organization a. the
site OF one Of its important plants for the simple reason
phase Of its work have decided that Grand Forks Is the
best place from which to carry Nn their operations IN
the territory which must be served.
Tho verdict of = concern like the STANDARD OH COM
pany is enc which busneas men everywhere must and
do respect Some enterprises Of great acceptability and
unquesttoned value have been located here through the
Efforts Of our own people who know what the condiuons]
are, Who have other interests here, who have faith in their
city, and who are properly ambitious that it shall pros
PET. That Is a desirable trait to have stand out promi-
nently in our dealings with others. But such endorse
rnent comes from persons whose individual interest In
the subject II manifest The Standard Oil company has
no such local interests to serve. Its selection Of Grand
Forks as the site Of its new plant, coming. as it does. un-
conditionalH and unsolicited, is a most effective endorse
ment Of the claims which progressive Grand Fork. men
have made for years.
