Mr.. and Mrs. James Gimblett, of
Detroit, Mimi, spent last evening in
the city and this morning left for
Cooperstown, n. D., where they will
visit friends and relatives for few
days. Mr.. Gimblett represents one of
the best lines of calendars manufac-
tured and sells most of our business
men calendars every year.

There in one thing sure about this
Townley person. Whether one likes
him or believes in his policies or not,
one must admire his nerve. Not long
ago one of his followers, Congress-
man John NJ. Baer, came out with
the statement that President Wilson's
famed Fourteen Points" were moth
ing but a rehash of Mr.. Townley's
principles. A little later big New
York publication suggested that there
was something "Lincolnesque" about
Townley, and this comparison was
greedily snapped up and used by all
the Townley-controlled press, who
naively limited that their master had
all the best of the comparison. And
now the Nonpartisan Leader, the
magazine of which Mr.. Townley is the
self admitted head, comes out with
an editorial in which they compare
the trial of Jesus Christ before PLATE
with the trial of Townley befpre
Judge Dean at Jackson; Christ and
Townley being neatly classed togeth-
er with Inference only slightly
obscured that the latter gentleman
is fully as wonderful a parsonage
as the Man from Galillee. There is
only one step further in self praise
that Mr.. Townley can take. - Wah-

The non-partisan press association
in session at Fargo yesterday passed
resolutions endorsing Lynn j. Frazier
for president, unqualiiedly endorsed
the new day in North Dakota with it's
added tax burdens and went on record
vociferously as favorable to the new
printing graft law as passed by the
last legislature and endorsed by the
people June Is. When this part of
the resolutions were read there was q
mighty quickening of interest in the
gathering and there was a loud ac-
CLAIM, from the collar ridden press rep
resentatives in testimony of their APP
prevail of the big boss printing mon
opoly. Every member of the gang
who are beneticiaries of this graft
law were of couse favorable to having
it continue in force so long as they
themselves reaped the reward

Great Britain is getting in bad with

Great Britain is getting in bad with
Mexico and her minister or Some other
dignitary has been requested to leave
that country by President Carranza,
head of the Mexican government. 1t
looks like John Bull and your Uncle
Carranza are going to get into bad
mix-up over something in that coun-
try and Great Britain is already look
ing to your Uncle Sam to look after
her interests while the unpleasantness
is on. If Great Britain gets into war
with Mexico and the U. S. signs up
the with bunch as league of nations,
we suppose we will have to jump in
andl help our ally whether it is right
or wrong.

If?

If cities will buy Towneyized bonds
they can have mills. If banks will
buy Townleyized bonds they can have
public money on deposit. If newspa-
pers will advocate Townleyism they
can live, if not they can die. If re-
turned soldiers will shout for Town
leyism they can have a job. If teach
ers will teach Townleyism they can
have certificates. If Miss Nelson
will tolerate Townleyism in public
schools she can be superintendent of
public instruction. If old men will
vote for Townleyism they can ride to
the polls, if not they can walk. If
courts will favor Townleyism they are
alright, if not they should be i'm
peached. If juries will acquit Town
leyites they should be given medals,
if not they should be Stunned by the
neighbors. Where will we be in ten
years if this creed is encouraged and
practiced all that time ?-Independent.

At the Commercial Club meeting
held last night Secretary Moe stated
that he had chance to book William
Howard Taft for a speech at Valley
City in April next. He also stated
that President Allen would let the city
have the auditorium for this speech
should the club decide to sign up for
Mr. Taft. After short discussion on
the matter the club voted to sign a
contract for Mr.. Taft to deliver an
address some time in April and Mr..
Moe was instructed to sign up for him
the club standing back of the deal.
William Howard Taft is one of the
foremost men of the United States, an
ex-presdent, and today one of the
men in the country who seems to be
coming back along all lines. 1t is
barely possible that he may be a
prominent candidate for the presi-
dency next year. However, that has
nothing to do with his speech as it
will be non-political. We feel certain
that Mr.. Taft will be greeted by a
very large audience if he lives to fill
that engagement and what he has to
say will be worth listening to.

---DVi ". g. ),

Gov. Frazier has been given a
mighty boost for the presidency.
Forty-nine league kept editors have
resoluted that Lynn J. should be pres
ident. There are something like one
hundred and five million people in the
U. S. who have not, so we guess that
the governor is long way from get
ting to the White House despite this
heavy endorsement at Fargo.
The house of representatives at
Washington made short work of Pres
ident Wilson's veto of the repeal of
the daylight saving bill yesterday
when the house passed the bill over
the veto by a big vote. Mr.. Wilson is
stubborn sort of chap all right, but
those representatives in the house are
going to show him that after they
pass a bill a couple of times they are
going to make it stick and can be just
as stubborn as he can. He is the same
way over this peace treaty. He tells
the senate they must ratify his treaty
as a whole or none at all, not giving
some of those statesmen credit for
knowing just as much as the presi-
Dental schoolmaster when it comes
to making and passing treaties for
this good old United States. We re-
spect the president all right, but he
must remember that if he were not
president his opinion would not
amount to any more than many think
ing statesmen we have in the country.
The senate is willing to give him the
long end of it but they want some
minor changes in that peace treaty.
