CITY ALLUREMENTS

The young man from the farm or village
who visits the larger cities and falls for the
Establishments and temptations which he finds
there is more to be pitied than condemned
for his first offense. 1t requires experience
beyond that possessed by youth to steer
clear of the evils and dangers which lie in
wait for victims. Even those who know
them because of familiarity are not immune.
How, then, can it be expected the inexpe-
rienced shall display the wisdom of years
and familiarity when the dangers are cloth
ed in the alluring raiment of friendship?
But the victim should not be exculpated. He
should be taught his lesson for his own good
as we'll as for the good of society.
The attempts of young men to obtain
money on forged checks, or by embezzllng
employers funds, can result in othlng but
disaster to the one who does it. There are
now in the penal institution of the state
a number of intelligent, capable, handsome
Young fellows who committed these offenses.
The enjoyment of the feeting delights the
money thus procured may bring can last
but brief day. Detection is as certain as
the rising of the sun. No man has ever es-
capped the consequences of his act. Some
have lodged them longer than others. but
the end is always the same. If the young
men understood these things few would take
the chances such an act involves. But the
sight of fancy suit of clothes or the desire
to raise few dollars to spend in the mys-
ferrous ways of the underworld overbalances
the limited experience the young man has,
and he falls a victim to his impulses.
The city ought to be an education to the
young man or woman who visits it. 1t is
the other side of the dual life of the popu-
lation; its hurry and hustle, its crowds and
displays, its countless faces and few friends
are things which every young person should
know at first hand. 1t is a contrast to the
quiet and retirement of the country. 1t is
that mysterious unknown which every nor
NAL human desires to search out But for a
young man to plunge into the city without
knowing what to do or how to avoid its
dangers is as irresponsible an act as to leap
from the deck of ship in mid-ocean and
hope to survive without a life preserver.

GETTING OUT OF JOINT.

The outside world has no concern in the
primary law of South Dakota if the law suits
the people of that state. But the law is out
of Joint with the customs of the nation, and
will remain so until all the states adopt a
plan of sitting out candidates like that
which South Dakota has.
Under the provisions of the law every
presidential candidate who desires indorse-
ment at the South Dakota primary must file
a declaration of principles and engage in
one debate in the state before January l.
This debate may be in person or by repre-
sentative 1t would not be difficult to COM
plv with the letter of the law in reference
to the debate. Any individual who favors
a particular man for the presidency may
challenge an opponent. The argument may
be a bunch of inanities, but it would meet
the letter of the law.
The spirit of the law is that the candidates
for the presidency must present their issues
to the people in an intelligent manner by
such debate so that action on them may be
taken in the primary. But at the time the
debate must be held few men are willing
to begin a campaign for the nomination. No
one will unless he is an aspiring politician.
At this time the most far-seeng politi-
clan is unable to read the political hand
writing on the wall with such clarity that
he can pick dozen candidates, one of whom
is certain to be nominated by either of the
parties South Dakota is shooting at long
range.

NEWSPAPER ROMANCES.

The Boomerang, of Lamarie, Wyo., has
been sued for SANDER. This incident recalls
to newspaper men the romance of the days
when newspapers were dominated by the
personal element of those who conducted
them. Bill Nye, its founder, made the Boom
erang famous. But it was because of the
personality of the humorist, and not because
Of the qualities Of the Boomerang as a news
paper The paper was Bill Nye. It's fame
reached from ocean to ocean. 1t was read
in every state in the union and hundreds of
people subscribed for it who had no interest
in Wyoming or the policies of the paper ex-
cept the writing of it's editor Bill Nye and
the Boomerang once caused smile wherev-
err they were mentioned. Now the suit for
libel against the paper creates only languid
interest in newspaper circles.
Bob Burdette made the Burlington Hawk
eye famous. Not to know the Hawkeye in
those old time days was to be unread in the
latest humor. The history of the New York
Tribune and Horace Greedy is so closely
blended that one cannot be separated from
the other. When the Toledo Blade boosted
of its half million subscribers its readers
cared little about the news it contained. Pc
troleum V. Nasty, the humorous pen name
of the brilliant editor, held the public atten-
ton. The quality and character of newspa-
pers have changed since the halcyon days
of those newspapers. The public has become
too busy to read humor in the daily press 1t
demands news. Modern newspapers are built
on the plans of corporations. They have
continuous lives. Men identified with them
may change, but the policies of the papers
remain the same. There is little personality
in them. They are cut to measure. The in
dividuality of those who make them cannot
enter into them, else they would be medley
of change and devoid of continuity of pur-
pose.
In the old days the paper went into decay
when the personality which made it was no
longer its inspiration. Now the reader knows
nothing of the coming and going of those
who make daily paper. They miss nothing
when one man quits and another takes his
place The paper bears no mark of the
change 1t is the same Once men wrote
themselves into their papers. Now the paper
is an individuality apart from those who
make it. The old timers took precedence
over the paper. Now the paper takes prece-
dence over those who make it.

Why SO Tender.
From the MINNEAPOLIS Journal.

Why are the federal immigration officials
so respectful, not to say obsequious, to an
archists?
Why does the department of labor set free
revolutionary agitators turned over to It's
care by the army secret service?
Why is the war department so tender of
the feelings of conscientious objectors"
Why is the department Of state so timor-
Gus about approving the deportation OF
Stacker declarants. who violated their oaths
of allegiance and abjured their first papers,
rather than submit to the draft?
Why do the federal authorities permit the
revival or pro-soviet plotting to go on I'M
molested?
These are mysterious indeed. One might
charitably suppose that the reluctance of
the various government departments to
stamp out red radcalsm of alien origin is
due to the same sort of pacifistic sentiment
alism that palsed the administrators hand
before the war. But the experiences of the
war itself should have purged the govern
ment of that sort of weakness. Why fight
at all. if the fruits of the war are to be
abandoned through a supine and splneless
policy?
A lieutenant on Gen. Woods staff engag-
ed in secret service work at Gary complains
to the senate committee investigating the
steel strike in these words:
"You have to get man with lighted
bomb in his hand, catch him putting it under
the house, have him confess it and swear
to it before you send him out of the coun-
try"
Yes and it is apparently impossible to
get deported man who has been convict
ed of conspiring against the government and
duly sentenced to deportation. Alexis GeOr-
gian, for instance.

The Magic Sphere.
From the Minneauolis journal.

The apple is the most versatile of fruit.
1t takes hundred varying forms from the
red-cheeked Baldwin to the Grimes Golden.
1t can be eaten in its own delicious natural
state, or it can be fried, boiled, baked, pre-
served, canned or dried. Apples can be eaten
for breakfast, dinner or superior between
meals. They add relish to meats and zest
to salads and desserts. The apple pie is the
king of all pies. Few other fruits retain so
much of the summer sunshine and fragrance
through the winter months Nature gathers
up the sweetness of a whole hillside pasture,
of a meadow lush with clover, and stores it
away in these golden spheres. The apple is a
part of summers glory projected into the
winter At this season of the year let US
be thankful, among other things, for the
apple. 1t was the object of boyhood's steal
thy approach, and it is still the delight of
that same boy become a man.

Victor L. Berger, the Milwaukee socialist
who was recently expelled from congress
because of his well-known attitude in oppo-
sition to the government, has challenged the
American voters of his district to a direct
contest at the polls Henry E. Badenstab,
a republican state senator, has been select
ed by the fusion committee of republicans
and democrats to make the race against
Berger. Badenstab doesn't sound like good

No one a few years ago would have
thought that in 1919 thousand ice cream
manufacturers would meet in convention in
an American city, and that the total invest
ment in the making of that cold confection
would amount to more than $200,0O0,OOO.
Manufacturers of cold drinks have invest
ments of half billion dollars. Indeed, it
is said there are some breweries which
have made more money in 1919 than in
the wettest year their business had ever
known.

The Universal Prayer.

Alexander Pope is not so widely read as
e was by our parents and grandparents, but
here few of his poems which ought not
0 be forgotten "The Universal Prayer" is
me of them. 1t is printed below:
Father of all, in every age,
In every cline adored
By saint, by savage and by sage,
Jehovah, Jove or Lord.
Thou great First Cause, least understood
Who all my sense confined
To know but this, that Thou art good
And that myself am blind.
Ye gave me, in this dark estate,
To see the good from i'll,
And, binding nature fast in fate,
Left free the human will.
If l am right Thy grace impart
Still in the right to stay;
If l am wrong, oh, teach my heart
To find that better wayi
Save me alike from foolish pride
Or impious discomfort
At aught Thy wisdom has denied
Or aught Thy goodness lent
Teach me to feel another's woe,
To hide the fault l see;
That mercy to others show
That mercy show to me.
Mean though I am, not wholly so,
Since quickened by Thy breath;
o, lead me wheresoe'er l go
Through this days life or death
This day be bread and peace my lot;
All else beneath the sun
Thou know'st if best bestowed or not
And let Thy will be done.
To Thee, whose temple is all space,
Whose altar, earth, sea, skies,
One chorus let all beings raise;
All Natures incense rise!

PASSING THE BUCK.

The controversy between the mine owners
and the miners seems to be a sort of "pass-

they are given but three days work week.
The operators insist they cannot get cars to
haul the coal away from the mines with
greater rapidity. The government, which is
operating the railroads, says it is supplying
the cars as rapidly as it can. And there you

THE CURBSTONE DEBATER.

Let US not decry the democratic curb
stone publcist who, in friendly way, ac-
costs his neighbor on the sidewalk and dis
cusses the questions of the day with him
then and there. There is a tendency now
adays to disparage such men, but this ten
dency is not in the right direction. The
fathers of the revolution and of the civil
war were ever ready for such debates, not
lacking in fire and patriotic spirit, and are
we so much wiser and better that in these
trying times we can lock our ideas up and
keep them secluded unless we use them to
sharpen our selfish ak? The people should
take deep and abiding interest in our gov
eminent, and be free at all possible moments
to consider it's welfare, which is the welfare
of each one of US. The present Indifference
of tn, masses should be cause for anxiety.

The way the farmers are organizing is an
indication that they are going to have some
thing to say about the price of cotton and
hogs. They have been forced to organize
in self-defense Not that they have suffered
from low prices, but that the signs of the
times are that they will suffer unless they
get in position to have something to say
about the selling value of the staples they
produce.
