gent need for relief What influence are
we exercising on the policy of the allies?
We are in less immediate danger from
the spread of bolshevism than France,
Italy or even England. Yet France and
Italy are pressing their national interests
vigorously and there is now talk Of an in
definite contol of central Europe pending
the payment of awards so great as to re-
quire perhaps more than generation to
liquidate. ssS ssa
Certainly America does not wish to un-
dertake any such enterprise. Neither
can she find it profitable to risk gener-
al debacle in Europe through the spread
of bolshevism. That would have serious
consequences for us financially, CONNER
cially and socially, and meantime we can
derive no benefit from the policy of ex-
IRENE exaction which threatens such
disaster. e,1ss

BAKERS WILD WASTE

1t is comparatively safe conjecture
that when the inside story of our war ex-
penditures begins to be unfolded we she'll
hear tale of waste and graft that will
appal1 us.
Already, OF course, we have been in
formed of the millions squandered and
grated in shipyard and airplane con-
struction, but these, in our. opinion, will
form but small part of the total sums o"
which the government has been fleeced or
has fleeced itself.
We have before our eyes the example
of Fort Douglas. The trouble in that
case has been the war departments
change of mind. Apparently the govern
ment could not make up its mind just
what to do with Fort Douglas. 1t prom
Used number of things and began build
ings to fit each new idea. When the war
department shifted to another idea it or
dered more and different construction.
At one time the post was to be transform
ed into great cantonment. Barracks
and other buildings were constructed in
conformity with that notion. Then an
internment camp was decided upon and
other buildings were constructed. Mean
time the cantonment idea had gone to
seed. The barracks were being occupied
only by occasional recruits.
About this time there was some talk of
making the post big quartermaster's
depot. A little later we were promised
reconstruction hospital. And each of
these ideas resulted in new construction.
Now orders have come to discontinue
all the work, which signifies that some
$4,000 or $4,000 in hospital and other
construction stops amid chaos.
1t is practically certain that Fort Doug
las has not been Bakers only folly. The
fantastic performance probably has been
duplicated in many other cases, but nat
urally the government is not telling on
| itself. .,4s spia q M,MW
1t is about time congress instituted an
! exhaustive investigation to take in all
war Expenditures so as to form compari-
sons between the money expended and the
results accomplished. When the results
are made known, we presume to predict
the administration will cali on the League
of Nations to enforce peace and domestic
tranquility:-Goodwin's Weekly.

PEACE TERMS AND REVOLUTION

The colloquy in the house of lords on.
the blockade of central Europe raises per-
haps the most important and difficult
question now confronting the victors.
Lord Lansdowne, who already has
made clear his belief that the policy of
the allies toward the vanquished must be
considered with regard for the revolu-
tionary forces threatening Europe, now
returns to the charge and warns the gov
eminent again. The London Daily News
has just spoken to the same effect. In re-
Spouse we have the Earl of Crawford's
hint that German policy may have some
thing to do with the apparent Bolshevist
danger, while Marshal Foch, Tardieu and
the French government show no signs of
disposition to moderate their claims.

heaval British newspapers alleged that it
was plot to avoid responsibility and to

When the European war was precipi-

Of the universe. Germany's desire for

the conflict which brought so much mis-

DEBATE 1 NTHE SENATE

When Senator Smoot was speaking in
the Senate on the Victory Liberty Loan
recently, after mentioning the $3.50, 0O0,-
600 for the railroads, the following dial
ogue ensued:
Senator Wadsworth: Is this $3.50, 000,-
600 for the railroads another of those re-
volving funds?
Senator Smoot: Mr.. President, it is
supposed to be a revolving fund, but it
does not revolve many times before it is
almost gone.
Senator Smith of Michigan: / think it
is dissolving fund.
Senator Wadsworth: You mean you go
in with full satchel and come out with
it empty.
All of which reminds us Of that memoir
able paragraph in the National Demo-
cratic platform upon which Mr.. Wilson
was elected: we demand return to that
simplicity and economy which BELTS a
democratic government" etc.

ONE FELLOWS GUESS AS GOOD
AS THE OTHER

What hopeless message Borah,
Lodge and Reed convey to the AM
erican people!
If those senators are right in
their opposition to the league of ma
tons, then there is no hope for the
world. Wars will go on-greater,
more disastrous conflicts-until
the nations are reduced to despair.
So far neither one Of the bitter
haranguers have proposed a meth
cd of warding off these awful
strifes which bring death and des-
olation.
The above from the Ogden Standard is
copied by the Journal.
Right here it might be opportune for
all to admit that $50 far neither of the
bitter haranguers (if that is what they are
to be called) have proposed method of
warding off these awful strifes which
bring death and desolation," and neither
has President Wilson nor any of his fol
lowers Of the League of Nations. All
that the President has claimed is that the
League would "reduce wars" and not
abolish them" Here is what the disting-
uished U. S. Senator Gore, a good Demo-
crat of Oklahoma, says:
What appeals to the farmers is
+, that perhaps it would not be to the
interest of the United States to
have his league. You see there
have been eighty wars in the last
100 years. The President says the
league would not abolish war, but
would reduce it. Now if the num-
Der were cut to forty the gain OF
the whole world would be very
great.
From the viewpoint of the Unit
ed States, however. different sit
uation presents itself. We have
been involved in only two of these
European wars, but under the
league plan, assuming the reduc-
ton in the number of wars have
indicated, the United States would
be involved in forty. 1t would be a
calamity if we gained nothing from
the war, but should hate to see us
lose the gem at our feet in reach
ing for the stars. think the solu-
ton of the war problem will be a
gradual evolution which cannot be
attained by one leap landing us in
the middle of the millennium.
Verify one fellows guess is just as goot
as the other fellows.

would offer in place of the League Of Ma
tions, and in his recent New York speech
he replied saying that he would offer

it does not listen so bad anyway.

Fargo. N. D., Oct. 21.-An increase
in the capital stock and cash reserve

today around the closed bank and the
Nonpartisan league headquarters;
with inquiries as to the place to take
up their notes an dtheir neighbor's
notes and post-dated checks for
league memberships, subscriptions to
the Consumers Stores, and other
league enterprises. They were In
formed to wait until the committee
meeting had formulated plans.
Yesterdays rain and today's light
snow flurries interfered considerably
with automobile trips planned to the
league rally. but special and regular
trains were crowded.

Minnesota members in addition to
those from North Dakota.

Of remedies to increase production.
He deplored the numerous industrial
strikes and the small representation
given agriculture in the industrial
conferences. 8
"In our efforts to get rid of the
high cost Of living disease" Senator
Capper said, II fear we are in great
danger OF dying Of the remedy. As

reduce high prices by breaking down
entirely the cost of food. we have

1T takes four and half bushels
of wheat to make n barrel Of flour.
The wheat raiser gets about 3S.37
