The Devils Lake world and inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1915-1920, 1920-02-04

Now that 166, 900 gross tonnage of German ships has been
turned over to Great Britain following President Wilson's order
overriding Chairman Payne of the Shipping Board, the ques-
ton has arisen, What nation will pay for the losses that have
been sustained by vrture of the idleness of the ships and the
wages of thousands of British seamen who were shipped to
New York in September for the purpose of manning the liners?
The puzzle is, not what nation will pay, but how the question
fish as a triumph for the British. 1t is quite possible that the
British had received an authoritative tip that they were going to
win on the question as to what nation would get the ships, else
they would not have undertaken the expense and risk Of send
ing their crews to man them. 1t is an American dollar to a
German mark that Mr.. Wilson'S surrender to Great Britain will
be unconditional and that the United States will pay the losses
and wages. President Wilson has consistently surrendered to
Great Britain ever since his first Inauguration, which he cee-
brated by changing his mind on the Panama Canal tolls ques-
ton and forcing the repeal of the law which gave free tolls to
American coastwise vessels. The platform upon which he was
elected that year, and which, he assured the people, was not
"moasses to catch flies" declared: "We favor the exemp-
ton from toll Of American ships engaged in coastwise trade
passing through the canal" But Great Britain did not favor
that exemption and Mr.. Wilson has been the most potent am
bassador that Great Britain ever had in the United States. If
you don't believe it, ask Lloyd George, who framed up the six
toone vote in the league of nations. From the Pendleton
(Ore) Tribune.

DIR. WALKER RENDERED "sEcRETARYsHIP OF CLUB

Since the new board ct directors of the Commercial Club have
organized they have been looking about for a real live wire tor
secretary of this organization, and about the first man whom
they picked was DR.. H. Garfield Walker, rector Of the Epls-
copal church in this city. DR.. Walker has shown that he has
the ability and push that would make our commercial club one
of the liveliest organizations in the staet, if he were to act as
secretary, and the board of directors realizing this they unan-
imously rendered him the position with a most fattering salary.
It was not the intention that Rev. Walker give up his church
duties, but it was suggested by the members OF the board that
he might devote a part of his time to this work, doing the diz
recting, and having an assistant to help him in the work: How
by the board. owing to his heavy duties as rector Of the :Epis-
copal church in this city. Since coming here he has done a
wonderful work along church lines; and as his church has
grown and broadened out, his duties have become more ard.
Gus, until he finds that it really takes all his time with his church
The people of Devils Lake would certainly welcome DR.. Walker
as the secretary of our Commercial Club, and the splendid
endorsement he received by being the unanimous choice of the
members of the board of that body only goes to show the high
esteem in which he is held by the people of our city.

France was voiced by Chief Justice
Mccoy, Of the District Supreme Court
in testimony before the House Foreign
Relations committee the other day.
Justice Mccoy was called to testify
in connection with the bill introduced
by Representative Bland, authorizing
the return Of the bodies Of the soldier
dead, upon the request Of relatives.
Justice Mccoy recently returned from
France. on a visit to the grave Of his
son.
II have no confidence in the Secre-
|tary Of War or the War department
entering into the task Of bringing the
bodies of the soldier dead to the Uni
ted States" declared Justice Mccoy.
"Why don't You think the War de-
partment is able to perform the task?'
asked Representative Huddleson.
"The War department never did
anything to amount to much in con-
nection with this war, until it was
kicked into doing it, responded JUS
tice Mccoy.
"Bue we won the war;" suggested
Representative Flood.
"Well, it was the boys who died
and the boys in the trenches who won
the val and not the War department.
replied Justice Mccoy tartly.
"In France, the War department
did not furnish the graves registra-
ton service with sufficient equipment
except in places near Paris and else
where where tourists go to look at
the graves" continued the chief JUS
tice.
II found n officer in charge of
100 square miles Of land, where there
are 103 cemeteries. He had only two
girls, volunteers, to assist him in car
ing for the graves"

With the Democratic party in Texas split into three factions
there is every indication that the Republicans will win a great
victory in the Lone Star State this year according to those who
are giving the situation their earnest and thoughtful attentions.
The fact that the Republican movement is headed by men who
formerly were prominent in Democratic ranks in Texas lands
strength to the assertion that the end of Democratic rule is near
and brutal majorties piled up by u%nthinking men will soon
be a thing of the past.
The Republicans will put out a full ticket next year and in
every instance will endeavor to persuade men to run for Office
whose names are linked with substantial achievements in the
community in which they live.
The Mexican situation will be one Of the big issues in the
campaign and a strong Mexican plank will likely be written
in the State platform when the convention meets in May. The
Tariff will also be dealt with to the best advantage of Texas
industries which have suffered from Democratic policies to an
almost unbearable extent.
There is an excellent chance to send Republican representa-
tives to Congress from a number of Texas districts and especial
ly in the border counties where the Mexican problem is the
paramount issue,
Taken all in all, the outlook for Republican victory in Texas
could not be brighhr-(From the Fort Worth (Texas) Re-

Bridged over by our broken dreams,
Behind the misty caps of years,
Beyond the great salt fount Of tears
The garden lies. Strive as.you may,
You cannot miss it on your way
All paths that have'been or shall be,
Pass somewhere through Gethse-

All those who journey, soon or late,
Must pass within the garden gate,

And battle with some fierce despair.
God pity those who cannot say,

"Let this cup pass" and cannot see
The purpose of Gethsenlane.

FARMER BUYS YEARS ADVERTISING

A South Dakota farmer recently walked into the office Of the
Headlight: at Big Stone, S. D.. and contracted for a certain
amount of advertising space for a year. He always had some,
thing to sell or trade, he said, or else wanted something, and
he believed that regular advertising space would be just the
thing to get results. There's no good reason why scores of
farmers in this community should not buy yearly space in che
World Just the same as did this South Dakota farmer. The
farmer is a business man and should advertise to promote his
business.

pean Authorities.

London.-Women are advised to
buy their silk stockings now, for q
famine in silk goods is predicted in
Europe next year. No more business
is being accepted by continental silk
manufacturers. Prices have risen 20
to 400 per cent more than before the
war, and some Japanese varieties are
six times more costly.
The scarcity is partially attributed
to the short skirt vogue, which has
meant an enormous demand for silk
stockings. Co%ncurrently there has
been a marked decline in production
largely due to the adoption Of the
eight hour day in continental mills.

Your Excellency:
1t has come to our notice thru the
public press that an effort is being
made for the release of Kate Richards
O'Hara from Federal prison where she
is serving a five year term for sedition
AS mothers of boys who served in
the army during the critical period of
the late war, some Of whom returned
broken in hea III, and SONIC If whom
will never return, we protest against
he release Of This woman. /
We indorse all that was said in the
resolutions adopted on thi; subject by
Wom:n's Auxiliary Of Lloyd Spctz
Fcst No. :: An Ic"1 Legion, at Bis
malck, N. D., and, in addition, desire
to call your excellencys attention to
the remarks made by Judge Martin
Wade in sentencing Mrs. O'Hara. y *
Kate Richards OsHare is the same
Kate Richards O'Hare whom Judge
Wade sentenced. No one who has in
terested himself in obtaining her re-
lease claims that her incarceration has
reformed her. She is still a menace
to good social order. If released she
would again begin a campaign of
sowing discomfort, hate and rebellion.
Her pardon would be an affront to the
womanhood Of the state OF North Da-
kota. Any person who interests him
self in the release the consequences
of his own act, or he is SO stepped
in red radicalism that Leon Trotsky
and Abraham Lincoln look alike to
him, and he looks forward with more
zest to the installation, in this coun-
try, of the hellish mis-rule and chaos
of Nicolai Lenine than to the preser-
walton of our own government and.
free institutions.
In the name of the womanhood of
our state,--in the name of patriotism
and good citizenship, We protest ag-
ainst the release of Kate Richards
O'Hare.
