1~Year

The annual Market Day, held in
Devils Lake under auspices Of the
Commercial club, proved a greater sue
cess than many had anticipated, ow-
ing to it's occurring in the midst of
the annual harvest season. In spite
of this condition, hundreds of fam
lilies from all parts of the county were
in the city toswitness the festivities.
Indian daness, pony racing, foot rae
ing, public auction sales without cost
to the farmers, were all in the pro-
gram, which began early in the morn
ing with band: concerts by the famous
Boy Scouts Organization.
The evening was given v to dane
ing. A large floor built in the alb
sence of a completed block of street
pavement and constructed on Kelly
avenue from curb to curb between
Third and Fourth streets, drew the
attention of hundreds of couples. To
music furnished by Weimar's orches-
ira, the throngs danced until early
hours of the following morning. 1t
was all free and the dancers availed
| themselves Of the opportunity.
Crowds in the evening were far
greater than during the day; farmers
and their families, particularly the
young folks, taking advantage of
good roads and days work done ito
run into the city for the evening.

referring to a private letter received last week
from a personal friend residing in his former
home county of Benson-just across the boun-
Diary from Ramsey-in which he pays especial
tribute to The World as being of some little use
to the community in which it lives and moves
and has it's being. The letter is an inspiration.
The World editor is human and is not immune
to a little sincere praise now and then as is ellc-
tied by the letter referred to-.
From the very nature of the business, the path
of the editor is not one of roses alone. The
thorns are there-heaven's knows-and the
sun sometimes forgets to shine on I'VE lowly
editor when just a few rays would help Won
derfully to "brighten the where we
are now located.
A newspaper, in order to justify it's existence,
must render some service to the public. 1t must
conform to certain standards of living in the
fulfllment of it's tri-fold mission of instruction.,
of entertainment, and of spreading information
in which the public is interested. And, be-
cause a newspaper office is really the center of
Information of a community, it is also the CEN
ter of more or less criticism. 1t is the person.
ifation of the old saying that zone can't please
everybody all the time" If The World editor
were endowed with that faculty he would prob
ably have long since retired and devoted him.
self to the worshipful admirers who would
gather about us to view the phenomenon. Be-
ing just ordinary human, however, we will prob
ably stick around yet awhile and continue to
plug away to the best of our ability-plucking
the roses along with the thorns-and extracting
a lot Of enjoyment out of the process, despite
the scratches to which we have become accus-
toned.
In the course of almost thirty years in the
editorial harness The World editor has received
quite a few letters of similar import, as we'll
as word-to-mouth messages containing, in sub
stance, the sentiment expressed by our friend
from Benson. These are some of the flowers
along the editors pathway, and they help to
make him feel that he is doing something worth
while in his little niche in life. They help him
to forget the cost of "newsprint" and other high
cost specters that make the publishing of a
newspaper several times as expensive as it was
before the war-and they give him courage and
inspiration to make a better newspaper in the
future than ever before. It is gratifying to have
people who really know and appreciate a real
newspaper tell us that The World is the "most
readable country newspaper they have ever
seen. That is what we want it to be-giving bv
far the most news of any paper in it's territory
a superior advertising service, attractive spe-
cial features and up-to-the-minute editorial com.
ment-that is the service that makes the "most
readable newspaper"

UMBRELLA MIKE"
After trial before a jury of his fellow coun-
trymen in the court of Judge Keneshaw Moun-
tain Lands, an individual known as "Umbrel-
la Nike Boyle was convicted of extortion and
other offenses against the law sof the United
States. He was sentenced to prison but was set
free by order of President Wilson. Within a
short time thereafter, Boyle ordered a strike on
the street railway lines of Chicago, and a suf~
fcient number of essential men quit their jobs
to tie up transportation. So far as appears, the
employees had no desire of their own to quit.
They went along regularly with their work un-
til the convict, released from prison, called
them out.
Here we have an illustration of the natural
results of the Wilson idea of government. 81
am the state" is his motto. The thought that a
jury of twelve men can be trusted to admins
ter justice, is repugnant to his mind. That was
demonstrated by his persistent efforts to save
the life of murderer Hillstrom, the l. w. w.
leader in Utah, and of Thomas J. Mooney, the
anarchistic agitator who was convicted of bomb
ing a preparedness parade in San Francisco.
Judging by the results following the release of
umbrella Nike in Chicago, it is safe to as
sumo that there would have been appalling con-
sequences if President Wilson had been success
full in his endeavor to secure executive clemency
for Hillstrom and Mooney. "Umbrella Nike
is a mere piker as compared with the operators
in Utah and California.
Now re suppose that the New York Times, if
its editor reads this comment, will repeat it's in
qulry whether it is too much to hope that Presi-
dent Wilson will now be given fair treatment
by his political opponents. We presume the
New York Times editor will attribute this COM
ment solely to partisanship. Very we'll. We are
willing to submit to the candid Judgment of our
readers whether the comment is justified by the
facts and whether it accords with their own
views of the proper functions of a President.
Is it too much to hope that the President will
now give the good people of America fair treat
ment and let up in his activities in behalf of the
enemies of American government and. American

question, will Mr.. Cox tell the American people

NILLERAND SAYS
 FRANCE WILL PAY
ASKS AMERICA ONLY FOR TIME AND NOT FOR cANCELLA-
 TON OF DEBT.
TO CONTINUE FRIENDSHIP
No Fleetine Misunderstanding Must Be Allowed To Trouble Relations Sooner Misconeeption Are
 Dssipated the Better

Paris.-Premier Millerand put aside the German crisis long enough to dis cuss the relations between France and the United States and the conditions of international credit, He said to the representative of the Associated Press:
 trance and the United States must continue the close friendship which always has been maintained between the two countries. No feet ing misunderstanding must be allow ed to trouble their relations. To that end the sooner misconceptions are dis sipated the better.
 Without going into the purely po- litieal questions it appears to me an opportune time to recall now to our friend the United States that France is not asking for charity. The greater part of money France borrowed abroad was spent nthe common in- terest of all the civilized countries a fact which might form the basis of claim for special consideration, but such is not our intention
 We don't request cancellation of our debts. We only ask time to breathe and to recover our strength after four and a half years Of eX- hausting war. Our propositions are those which any debtor would feel right in making in the interest of both himself and his creditor.
 The premier referred to the ruin ous fluctuations in the rate of eX- change. which he held would be az grayated rather than palliated through measures proposed to France by those not taking sufficient account Of interior conditions.
 eff France is obliged to meet her obligations abroad at present rate of exchange she would be forced to pay two and a half times what she owes, ; he continued. Thus, after spending for the common good 30,000,0 100000 francs borrowed from her friends, she would have to pay 45,000,000,00O francs as Frances premium to these same friends. Of course, that is not what they mean to require of us.
 'We have given our blood, we have given our money. To ask us now to give more than double our debt is an anomaly that cannot fail to strike the most impartial judges.
