SUSPENSE HANGS
OVER ST ate CAPITOL

Bismarck, n. D., Sept. The cor
ridors and halls seem to echo it; in the
mantle Of suspense which hangs over
the capitol one seems to feel it; the
mice in the attic (of the building OF
course) squeak out their opinions con-
corning it; even "Sakakawea' on her
pedestal in the grounds seems TO have
her mouth pursed@ for the first sylla-
Bile Of the word Impeachment. :

BUY EN- YOURSELVES, BOYS

d. L EI!V 1OCAOCAS Ed, DO . s-t
Those politicians who farm the
farmers and work the workers in
North Dakota, show much greater
eagerness to invest their winnings in
automobiles than in state bonds to
promote the new state enterprises.
Those great unselfsh (?) leaders
Of the league are as careful to avoid
buying bonds as they have been to
avoid paying taxes in the state. The
10 or IL men who were the most ac-
tive in league politics in the state at
the last election, didn't pay $50 in
taxes, all told.
Fargo is the headquarters for many
of the league enterprises. Mr.. Town
ley might lead the list of buyers for
Fargo with one or two 81 600 bonds.
Mr.. Lemke might chip in with few
thousand on behalf of his newspaper.
The league bank could set an excel
lent example with the purchase of
say $4,000 or $4,000 Of the state
bonds.
Step up to the counter, boys, and
show you are not fighting the farm
ers' movement" Buy some Of them
yourselves, boys, and set the rest Of
Fargo a good example. Don't be
afraid to bet your own game.

The United States senate is COM
posed Of men who do not readily jump
at the presidential mandate to "sign
there" like a lot Of rubber stamps
since March fourth. And we are glad
to note that there are twenty or more
sound democrats in the senate as well
as a lot. Of republicans who aim to do
their own thinking and voting.

IN his Speech dL SC. 1Aul yesterday
President Wilson said that all editors
who were opposed to the peace treaty
in its present form were "down right
ignorant" and also all those oppon.
ents to the peace treaty were rising
the head Of pro-Germanism in this
country. Mr.. Wilson is getting to be
nothing more or less than a dema.
gogue. Last election he forgat his
presidential dignity to 60 out of his
way to say that no one but demo-
crat should be elected to congress. He
was rebuked by the people by the cleo
ton of republican congress. Ever
since he started on his tour of the
country calling those who oppose his
views ignorant and pro-Germans he
has been losing ground for the peace
treaty. His own party senators are
deserving him and are coming out for
reservations and in every instance
where there has been a test vote for
the election of congressman on this
issue he has lost out If vote were
to be taken today in the United States
we do not hesitate to predict that the
peace treaty in its present form would
be defeated. The people of the United
States as whole are not an ignorant
class of citizens except the editors, of
course-and it is mighty undignifed
of the president of the United States
running around the country telling
those who cannot see his viewpoint
that they are ignorant and pro-Ger-
man. Mr.. Wilson has had his head
turned by the flattery bestowed upon
him by the European nations and
while the big men of these nations
have been patting him on the back
they have been slipping something
over for themselves in the meantime
Then he comes back and with an ex-
aggerated amount of egotism under
takes to tell people just as we'll read,
just as well educated and just as sound
in common sense as he is, that they
are down right ignorant. No man
ever held the Office Of president of the
United States or ever will hold it.
who is big enough to assert that he is
ME perfect man and that his opinion
Is supreme. There has only been one
perfect man in the world-the lowly
Nazerene-and he went about the
country trying to convince people of
their error by teaching gentleness and
patience and truth. If the Washing
ton schoolmaster would devote more Of
his time to trying by real argument
to change the minds of those who do
not see the treaty as he does instead
of standing up and using his position
as president of the United States to
abuse people, he would be a great deal
nearer to having his peace treaty rat
flied than he will by continuing his
present tactics. Up to this time his
trip, outside of making a big splurge
for himself, has done more harm than
good.

NEWSY TOPICS
FROM CAPITAL

Bismarck, Sept. 100 Citing. the fact
that since statehood the course Of
study in the common schools have
been prepared by the superintendent
of public instruction, and citing the
Senate Journal to show that Senate
Bill 1874, establishing the board of ad-
ministration was amended, re-amend-
ed and altered number of times as
the result of protests and hearings,
Assistant Attorney General Edward
B. Cox, before the supreme court
Tuesday morning, argued Minnie Mel
sons side of the lawsuit to retain in
her office the preparation of course of
study. Section z of the bill placed in
the hands of an appointive body the
preparation of course of study for
the several classes of public schools"
This deprived the state superintendent
of all power, and as result Section
8 was added by the legislature which
stated "The powers and duties shall
be subject to the control of the board
Of administration, only insofar as such
powers and duties were by law sub
ject to control of ny or all of the
boards" consolidated into the board
of administration.
An attempt on the part of the at
torney to cite the publicity pamphlet
and the statements of William Lemke
that this did not deprive the state sup
Of powers, provoked a vio-
lent outburst from Judge Robinson.
Joseph Coughlam appearing
for the board of administration re-
quested time to submit a brief. He
was granted four days.

A press dispatch in the Fargo
Forum of last night conveys the in
telligence that Walter F. Gushing has
purchased the Advance at Beach, N.
D., the paper he has so ably edited for
the people of that city for the past
five months. Mr.. Cushing is one of
the best writers in the state. In buy
ing the Advance he has secured good
newspaper property and at the same
time he shows that he has faith
enough to believe that notwithstand-
ing all the backsets the printing bus
mess has received at the hands of the
late lamented legislature, he is going
to make win of it. That's the prop
er spirit. Success to you, old man.

If President Wilson figures that
those of US who do not agree with him
on the peace pact are ignorant guys
and pro-Germans we wonder in what
class he places those distinguished
disciples of state socialism Messrs.
Lemke, Townley, ct. al. who are to be
in the front van of his reception COM
mittee. Mr.. Wilson must feel that he
is in high class company today. While
this ignorant newspaper man was
buying liberty bonds, using up col
umns upon columns of our paper
boosting for the boys over there in
every branch Of war work, some of
these reception committee fellows
were trying their durnest to hinder
the progress of the war in every way
possible. It seems to US that the
president has rather stopped over in
some of his statements.
