In appreciation of the excellent work done by The Republican carriers for the southside towns, the southside manager will take the boys to River side tomorrow afternoon for a swim, and later a watermelon feast.

SEALING THE TREATY

In tn accounts of the ceremonies attending the sign
ing of the peace treaty we were told something OF the
afxing of seals to the document, and something of the
style of seals used. OF course the treaty had to be sealed.
Such a document without seals would be unthinkable.
Even contracts between individuals, involving but a few
dollars. are sealed in one way or another, and surely a
solemn compact among great nations would be incom-
plete unless it were likewise decorated
And yet the seal is merely an inheritance from a pc
riod of almost universal illiteracy. Where there was de-
sired a record to identify a party to a compact or|the
author Of a communication the individual used a seal
because he had no other means Of identifying himself.
When ability to sign ones name became more common
the use of the seal was retained. and it has in these days
become purely formal and ornamental. That it WIN
soon be discontinued is improbable because, while fuse.
less it is harmless, and around its use cluster1associa-
tons which have at least sentimental value.

THE WILL TO PEACE

General Pershing uttered a profound truth in his
Fourth of July address in Paris when he said:
. This war has brought about among the
Allies a common understanding and a realiza-
ton of community of interest that will make for
peace, without which agreements are futile.
like the scope of the one now in process Of formation
of the possibilities, such a league had been formed, it
would have been ineffective, because it would not have
had behind it that common understanding and realiza-
ton of ommunit of interest which make such agree
ments really binding and effective.
Almost everywhere there was academic acceptance
of the doctrine that peace was desirable. But there was
little realization that the problem was one of pressing
moment, and there was no abiding consciousness that war
and the threat Of war was the concern of every nation
the prevailing attitude toward wars in Europe was one
of Indifference. We have found that our indifference
was unwarranted, and most of us have come to the con-
clusion that war anywhere is the immediate concern of
each of us.
With that broadened and deepened nding,
with a clearer conception of the fact that the welfare
Of the individual is involved in the common welfare, we
have reached a mental attitude which will give effect to
agreements which could not have been made five years
ago, or which, if made, would have been meaningless
words. We have passed through a great peril with the
with new purposes. We have reached the will to peace.
and the League of Nations is the expression of a convic-
ton rather than a dogma imposed from without

his hearers of a fact which he did not wisht them ever
to forget. hence he said, Furthermore" And there was
nothing in the body Of his speech inconsistent with his
closing declaration He did not say that the existence
of Carthage was useful and necessary to Rome, there
fore-or MISUNDERSTANDING must be destroyed.
Senator Sherman, Of Illinois, went to a different
school, otherwise he would not contradict himself as he
Article x Of the league constitution land says that the
ADOPTION of this means that the existence of every exist
ing government is guaranteed, revolutions are prohibited,
and everything must remain as it is.
Article X provides as follows:
The members of the league undertake and
preserve as against external aggression the ter
ritorial integrity and existing political independ-
ence Of all members Of the league. In case Of
any such aggression or in case Of any threat
or danger of such aggression. the council shall
advise upon the means by which this obligation
shall be fulfilled.
Therefore, says Mr.. Sherman. we guarantee that
everything shalhremain as it Is. Where is that guaran-
tee found? The application Of Article X is specifically
restricted to external aggression" BY no stretch of any
Imagination less elastic than Mr.. Sherman's can there be
found even the remotest application to territorial changes
by peaceful agreement, or to political changes resulting
from the working of forces within the nation itself. The
league would guarantee to Poland, fo< instance. that Ger
many would not be permitted to resume her former
habit by carving off a strip of Polish territory. It would,
under conditions such as those which existed in 1914,
protect Serbia against the attempted imposition Of Aus
TRAN over-lordship. But it would have nothing to say
if each one of the British dominions should choose to
separate itself from the empire and set up an independent
sovereignty of its own. 1t would remain quiescent II our
southern states should again attempt to secede, but it
would not permit Mexico to retake Texas.
Mr.. Sherman cannot be shaken loose from his con-
viction that two and two make something other than
four. Yet four years ago in some quarters he was con-
sidered rather seriously as a presidential possibility, and
he now represents a great state in the United States
senate.

PITY THE POOR BANDIT

When every community in Minnesota has its armed
guard Of business men, as planned by the Minnesota
Bankers association, there should be a quick rise in the
mortality rates for bank robbers.
The plan approved by the association at it's recent
meeting, is to supply each town with sawed OF shotguns
made for use by the American army. Every busness
man in each small town or suburban center lis to have
one Of these riot guns and a buzzer connected with the
banks robbery alarm.
A few rehearsals would make the riot gun squad
proficient In putting on the Following "show" for the
visiting bandits:

mand. and with his foot gently pushes a button. on the
floor. Buzzer sounds in every business house in town.

WASTE

A recent news note on the Industrial conditions in a
large city where no}general strike is in progress tells Of
the return to work of several thousand people who have
been striking, agreements in their case having been eff
fected, and the information is added that there are still
80 many thousand idle in this industry and so many thou
sand more in that, until the number Of persons not at
present engaged in any work runs up to figures sufficient
to people a fairly large city without going outside the
ranks of the strikers. And this is without the existence
Of conditions which have attracted general attention.
Whatever the causes which have brought about this con-
dition of temporary idleness, it represents waste out of
which there is no salvage. A vacation is not waste. be-
cause it is an important and wholesome influence in the
normal life Of the individual. The shortening of working
balance is maintained between time and properly directed
effort But when the ordinary working time is inter
rupted by a period of idleness which does not belong in
~, the result is q total and permanent loss.
There is no class in the community which does not
bear its share of the burden of this waste. The workmen
may be compensated for the time being by such increase
In wages as will more than offset the loss Of income
during the idle period. But the waste is there nevertne-
loAs. and IN one way or other the cost of that waste is
added inevitably to the cost of goods produced. and the
price must be paid in the long run by the general public
including the strikers themselves. The only way in which
this wnste can be avoided isrby keeping the wheels Of in.
@dn6try turning while adjustments as to wages and ali
other matters are ia progress.

AN IMPOSSIBILITY

A Grand Forks soldier quotes a remark made in his
hearing by a German officer, to the effect that an army
composed of American soldiers commanded by German
officers would be invincible. This officer evidently had in
mind TWO things, the personal qualities of the American
soldier and the precision in discipline Of the German mill
tary system. His idea is to combine these two things. The
thing is impossible. We cannot eat our cake and have
our cake! "A. man cannot at the same time be an insen-
sate machine and a reasoning human being. The German
system and the American system are opposites, and are IT.
reconcilable. The one seeks to destroy what the other
seeks to develop. The German ideal is the negation of
the very qualities which make the American soldier what
he is.
Excellent raw material is represented in the soldiery
Of both countries. In the case of the German, mechanical
perfection has been the aim, and in the effort to attain
it everything indicative of real manhood has been sternly
repressed. The result is a creation which responds we'll
to every mechanical test, but which fails when tests of
another sort are applied. The American ideal is that
of manhood developed to it's highest point. The result
IS a military structure in which the elements Of indie
pendence and Initiative are utilized, controlled and dr
rected, instead Of being destroyed. The German officer
and the American private do not belong together, and
could never exist together.

VOLUME AND PERCENTAGE

During the past year the expenses of the federal grain
corporation were So, 500, 900, according to the official re-
port recently made. That seems like quite a lot of
money. 1t is more than the total assets, profits and an
nual business Of thousands of quite important and re-
spectacle business institutions. Does not such an expense
bill suggest extravaganza, graft. extertion and a number
of other denominations? Is it any wonder that the loaf
Of bread sells for fifteen cents when the handling of the
governments grain business costs such an immense sum ?
Ask the trade commission, which has a fit Of 'virtuous
Indignation whenever large figures are mentioned in con-
nection with expenses and profits.
What does an expense bill of So, 500, 900 mean? Just
surface the earth is of incalculable magnitude. Weighed
against the mass of the universe it is a negligible bit of
say that a thing is great or small. And we are provided
with a basis of comparison in the official statement that

That seems like a very moderate cost. The concern could

gate, have been greater. The gross amount has no mean

the contrary notwithstanding.

The organ had hushed its voice to
a sort Of exultant sobbing, flied with
dreams of flowers and Joys, and
hints of sorrow; and the minister in a
voice both impressive and musical
began the ceremony. Gordon stood
doggedly and wondered IL that really
was n eyebrow coming down over

Another full second passed, and he
decided that IL ne ever got out Of this
situation alive he would never, no,
never, no. never, get married himself.
During the next second that
crawled by he became supremely con
scious of the creature In white by his
side. A desire possessed him to look
at her and see it she were like Julia
Bentley. It was like a nightmare
haunting his dreams that she was
Julia Bentley somehow transported to
New York and being married to him
willy-nilly. He could not shake it off
and the other eyebrow began to fee
shaky. He was sure it was sailing
down over his eye If he only dared
press its adhesive lining a little tight
