II Frank White of Wiley City. 1nde-
pendent candidate for the ERepublican
nomination for United States senator,
outlines the principles on which he
bases his candidacy in q statement
received today by The Grand Forks
Herald.
AS far as state issues are concern
ed, Col. White stands squarely on the
platform adopted by the Independent
Republican convention at Minot.
In the case of Col. White, however,
since he is candidate for national Of.
flee, national issues also become of
paramount importance. In regard to
these, he makes the following state
ment: y 4
Peace Treaty. q
I "The first step to be taken is the
ratification of the peace treaty with
such reservations as to fully protect
the sovereignty of our nation. The
terms of the Treaty OF Versailles ARE
the settlement and there will be no
other. The League OF Nations is the
fundamentally through which the
terms of the treaty will be enforced
The influence of the United States in
the League of Nations would do more
to promote its successful operation
than the presence Of any other nation
We should be a part. of this league as
q matter of duty, and also for the. pro.
lection of our own interests.
@ Taxation.
Our system of taxation is such that
the burden now falls almost entirel,
upon the consumer and has done much
to add to the high cost of all products
The system should be revised totbea1

WHEN CATHOLICS GIVE UP
CONFESSION.

When Catholics give up Confession
the beginning of the end has come
There is only one reason: they will
not give up sin. They may call their
negligence by some other names; they
may give this and that excuse; but
deep down in their hearts they know
we'll that there is something which
God or His Church demands which
they are unwilling to do. We know
we'll that there are some fallen away
Catholics who will resent the imputa
ton that they are leading sinful lives
Let us tear Off the mask. There is I'M
doubtedly something wrong. If they
have come to stage where they dc
not believe there is anything wrong
their case is sad, indeed. 1t is a sigr
that they have already made a creed
of their conduct, and that according
to their tenets of the new creed they
stand acquitted before the Tribunal
set up in their own conscience.

work which was waiting for these
young people.
They have real and very admir-
able mission, whatever their home
duties may be-and it is, to impress
the effects of their careful religious
training upon the world about them.
Of what use are all the years spent
under the refining influences of con-
vent life, if the recipients of those
advantages do not make use of them
to the betterment, in some degree, of
their associates of everyday life?

The convent girl has learned, if she

obedience to superiors, and the lowell
