In the early days of the war a grouI
Of optimistic young men assembled Al,
the officers training camp ut Fort
Myer, Va. with all the necessary ap-
purtenances Of officers, from spurs to
an extra pair of field gla.ses. Later on,
as it became necessary for the authori-
ties to hand out little pink slips and
one-way tickets home, it grew into a
custom for the departing candidates to
auction off his equipment.
One Saturday morning Captain
Blank said sharply to Candidate Jones
of Company x:

Medals Not Popular.

War department officials can't un-
derstand why the veterans of the
Great war are making joke of their
Victory medal, which has been man
ufactured by carloads and which will
be awarded to all honorably discharged
soldiers provided they make formal
application for it.
An official statement dated July Fl
declares that although the department.
was prepared to issue about $4,000 of
these medals each day it received only
$4,000 applications in the first month
after the delivery began. Apparently
the soldiers don't care much for this
kind of souvenir of their experiences in
the camps or overseas.
One veteran explained that since
the getting of a medal involves the
giving up, temporarily, of mans
discharge papers, the men are salts
fed to hang onto the discharge pa
pers, (which are their most valuable
ouvenir of the SERVICE" and let ther
medals stay in the hands of the govern
ment. Anyhow, the men are all so
busy with their own jobs just now
that they are forgetting the wars
glamour.
Of the first $4,000 medals issued
there were 1904 with one battle clasp,
7,244 with two battle clasps, 6,695
with three, $3.50 with four, 1897 with
five, 149 with six, 16 with seven, 8 with
eight clasps, s with nine clasps, with
ten clasps and 1 with fourteen clasps.
Of those who did not take part in major
operations 1869 served in France, in
Italy, 33 in northern Russia, 118 in
Siberia and II, ST 0 in the United States.

Official paper of New Ulm, MINI.
A Ne2U War Threutenang9

Another world war is close to us.
A stronger cause for a general con-
f1agration of nations exists today than
existed in 1914. Two principles are
abroad in the European world which
apparently can not exist side by side.
The one being the old, established, eco
nomic order in Europe; the other be-
ing the different order established in
Russia. The incompatability of these
two principles was so clear to the
allied statesmen that they and we
began war on Russia while we were
in the midst of tile war with the CEN
trail powers, and this war has kept up
ever since. The Russians, on the other
hand, equally aware, it seems, that
these principles could not exist side
by side, girded themselves for war and
attempted to explain to the people of
other nations what was gong on IN
Russia, the latter being known as
"Bolshevik propaganda.
At the present time the Russians
have cleaned out nearly all military
opponents. They are close to the
capital of Poland and are in a po-
sition to dictate terms Of peace to that
nation. They are striking England
and France in their weakest spots,
namely, through Turkey, Persia and
India. At the Same time large groups
of working people and peasant farmers
in every European country have come
to think that a change in the social Or
der would improve their lot in life.
Whether they continue war or make
peace the benefciaries Of the present
social order in Europe are thus equally
in danger.
They are in such desperate straits,
in fact, to protect themselves, that at
any moment we should not be sur
prised to find them calling for general
war to crush Russia once for all, and
depending very largely on the United
States for both the fighting and the
finance. The one thing that appears
to stand in the way of such a general
war is the possible attitude OF the
French and the British workers. 1t
was due to these workers that the
Kolchak, Denekin and Yudenich drives
on Russia, as we'll as the Polish drive
were not major military operations by
oo,, b;,,oJ o1liod forces
Premier Lloyd George has hurried
to Boulogne, France, for conference
with the French prime minister in an
effort to prevent the impending gen.
eral war. British leaders apparently
believe immediate peace with Russia
and moderation for Germany are vital
in preventing general war. France,
which sees her Russian field of ex-
ploitation gone, her power over Ger
many slipping and her plan OF using
Poland to keep Russia and Germany
apart knocked to pieces, probably pre-
fers war to peace. Hence Lloyd
George is likely to have stormy ses-
sion at Boulogne.
England is not moved by any new
love of peace but rather by the GUS
tomary shrewd calcula tions which
have kept it's empire ahoat so long.
The war game has as much justifca-
tion now as over two years ago, when
England and France jumped on Rus
sia. But Russia has beaten back these
attempts and is now in a position to
hit England at so many vital points,
such as India, Persia, Asia Minor and
even China, that England has only
desperate hope of accumulating the
necessary military forces for the war.

DEMOS INDORSED .
IN NORTH DAKOTA
SECRET SESSION OF DEFEATED
C. o. P. MACHINE TURNS
To. o'coNNoR.
FEELING OF CoNFEREES RAN
HIGHLAND BITTER MOST OF
sic Iva ~
THE TIME.

After a secret session of more than
"a hours, held at Grand Forks, N. D.,
the so-called Committee of Twenty
one," representing interests hostile
to the Nonpartisan league farmers,
have emerged with plans for a state
ticket.
Their decision is to support the
Democratic ticket this fall. While
the session Of these leaders Of the dis
gruntled Republican element of the
Estate was as secret as a meeting of the
peace conference, there is evidenee that
the feeling ran high and bitter most of
the time.
The followers of LANCER, who was
defeated by Governor Lynn J. Frazier
for the governorship, wanted him to
run again.
This demand was more than the
demand of the LANCER followers, how
ever, because both the national parties
are angling for the electoral votes of
North Dakota for their respective
national tickets, and the Endorsement
of the otherwise negligible Democratic
ticket would add considerably more
strength to the national Democratic
ticket.
The failure of the Anti-League cor
ference to choose an independent to
run for senator is taken to mean that
H. II. Perry, Democratic nominee, will
receive it's support against Doctor
E. F. Ladd, the League candidate, who
was victorious against Senator Gronna.
5 League leaders express themselves
as we'll satisfied with the maneuvers
CT their Opponents in that the Dem
ocratic nominee has always been a
strong opponent Of the League and,
consequently, the misunderstanding
which was possible through running
men who have turned against the
League as leaders Of the anti-League
ticket in the primary campaign, will
not be possible again.
The reactionary Republicans Cf
North Dakota apparently have 70
moral scruples against leaving their
party to support the anti-Leaguers on
| the Democratic ticket.
