little English, he will be found read ing American newspapers. The news paper printed in a foreign language IS an immediate necessity, a tempo rary means Of contact With edu- cation, with increased facilities for learning English, the alien will no longer need his own newspapers.
 The foreign language press in this country is coming to realize that in order to exist it must become An1eri- can; print American news and views, interest readers not in what Europe IS dolng or has done. but is what America is doing and thinking. In the past that press was on the whole content to foster a narrow sort of European nationalsn1, to the seclu- sion of American interests The foreigner was only too often left to his own devices, and he not unnatu rally fell back upon his own resources. Nowadays he feels he is becoming 2 part of the country to which he has come, that the old Europe is behind him.
 He must not, he cannot be coerced by Prussian methods to forget his home country--or rather his native country-hut he is more willing than ever before to enter the spirit of this adopted country. There is at present little opposition to the new current Of American ideas among the foreign- language newspapers; they realize to the fullest extent that they must re-. fleet the aspirations of their readers The most enlightened editors of foreig, language newspapers desire to make their paper American organs, printed merely as a matter of immediate necessity in foreign languages.
 1t is a critical time. It is q moment for sober judgment and balanced reasoning. The foreign language press IS an instrument of incalcuIabIe power. It is ready to bend every effort toward the accom- plishm ent of an Entente that is virtually important In this country, the Entente beWeen the alien immigrant and the American native. The Melting Pot theory has worked out only to a limited extent;

E DIT O RIAL
EXPERIMENT HAS FAILED"

We are using the caption employed by the Aberdeen News with
reference to the federal operation of the railroads. Our Aberdeen
contemporary quotes the st. Paul Pioneer Press to sustain its claim
that the government has made a semi-aiure OF the operation Of the
roads.
It is but fair to suggest to the Aberdeen paper that in all
resulted from the government operation. Everything was at a
standstll when the government took over the roads Freight traffic
was blockaded everywhere. Sidings We're filed with wheat cars, coal
cars, empty ears and about every other kind Of a car that anybody
had ever heard OF. In short, private operation of the railroads was
at the breaking point-indeed, had already broken. The govern
Smemt stepped i'll and saved the sitCation-at all events, saved it
sufficiently to meet the actual needs, if not filing all expectations.
The government has had no chance to demonstrate the feast
blity of the public operation of the means of transportation. There
is a widespread belief that the roads have been operated by the gov
eminent by men who have hoped fro mthe beginning that the gov
ernnent would fail in the undertaking. There is a widespread be-
lief that it was intended by the men actually directing the traffic
lesare not referring to Nh. McAdoo, for he exercised but a super
SYisory control, having nothing or but little to do with the details
that the government should not show up to advantage in the trans
action. The private owners of the railroads have themselves been
largely the directing forces under federal operation. 1t would be
expecting too much to hope that men imbued with the idea that pub
ssic ownership is inimical to the interests of the country, and par
tticularly Of themselves, should really and truly set about it to make
governmental operation a success in every detail
If those who believe that the government is bound to make
railroads in the hands Of the government for five years they would
sbe in position to argue from their standpoint with telling effect at the
end Of this period, providing their views respecting governmental
operation are well founded. There would be no further demand for
The public ownership OF the railroads il after five years trial the
government should demonstrate its incapacity.
There seems to be an obvious fear among lhe champions of tie
the principle Of private ownership that possibly the government
might make a success of the enterprise il given FIVE years III which
10 experiment.
OF course. the government has not met with success in every
particular IN its operation Of the roads. 1t would have been super
human had it done SO.

Doyon, N. D., March 1S.-Another
story indicating the character of the
enemy with which our men commended
in the world war comes home with
Fred Hall, a local boy, who was several
times wounded while fighting in some
of the hardest battles in which the Ann
orleans took part,
He tells of a wounded boche who lay
on No-Man's land gasping and calling
for water. Water at the front is price
less" said Hall. But one of our men
hearing the cry could not resist. He
gave the wounded enemy the last bit
from his canteen and as he turned
away, the boche reached UP and stabbed
him. s
