State Auditor Carl Kositzky has
ormally' announced himself as can
didate for reelection to the Office of
tate auditor and will acceptSa nomi-
alton on the ticket to be endorsed at
Minot. If there is any one man in
he state who should receive the en-
lorsement at the polls and commenda-
lion of the people of this state it is
The present state auditor. He it is who
las steadfastly stood for the truth
.bout the waste Of the public funds
" the present administration and he
has taken more abuse than any other
nan in the state in so doing. Mr..
<oitzky has been a faithful servant
Of the people of the state and we hope
10 see him renominated and elected.
It takes courage and conviction to
buck a great big political machine like
we now have in charge of affairs in
North Dakota and the only reason
Carl did not get the axe was because
thew could not remove him. All other |
good men who have been at the head
of state institutions who do not crlnge !
and crook the knee to the present out /
fit have to walk the plank: Joseph M.
Devine, superintendent of sthe reform
school at Mandan, the most competent
as well AS most humane man in this
state, must go to satisfy the craving
and ambitions Of the socialist leaders
Of the state. How long will these con-
ditions exist? Isn't it about time the
people put stop to such foolish do
ings? Next June register your disap-
prevail of this by your votes.
Nothing greater or more worthy
of ones support has ever happened in
the age of Christianity than the great
Inter Church World movement which
will start the last week Of this month.
Think of the exemplifying of Christ's
life here on earth if only the various
denominations can be united as one
mighty army of the church of God
with the same beliefs, and all striving
to lead the world in the paths of
righteousness and teaching the same
good old time religion as Christ and
his disciples taught while on earth.
How much more Christlike this would
be than that of the present time with
so many different denominations and
beliefs, all working independent of
Cac;? other as we see in our every day
life. Thirty denominations have unit
ed their forces into one unit and Will
carry on an extensive campaign, at
tempting to bring the churches to-
getI1er into one unit with the same
beliefs, creeds, ETC., regardless OF de-
The movement is also
to help Christ's chosen disciple here
on earth-the minister. Statistics
show that the minister is one of the
lowest paid workers in the nation and
vet think of the many kindnesses
which are meted out by them day aft
er day. People of today are getting
broader vision of church work than
they used to and each denomination is
seeing lots Of good in the other. We
are glad to see this coming together
of all the churches and trust that in
the final roundup the movement will
result in great good to all mankind.
What will be known as the nation
al ship by truck week will be observed
from May II to %, inclusive, through
out the country, according to word
sent out by headquarters Of the Ship
by Trucks bureau at Washington. The
plans include truck tours lasting
the week and covering vir
tually every section of the country.
every rural community
will be traversed by caravans of mo-
tor trucks, demonstrating the bene-
fits to be gained from truck trans
portation and preaching the doctrine
of better highways. This movement
has the endorsement of government
senators, congressman and
many other public spirited and far
seeinug citizens. One point which the
Of labor brings out very
strongly as solution for the high
cost of living problem which now cen
fronts the country is to get the pro
ducts Of the farm to city with the least
possible congestion, and points out
the advantages which may be obtain
ed from using a truck for the carrying
of farm produce, such as POTATOES,
eggs. butter and other products. 1t
is indeed very interesting to look back
a few years and see the strides which
the country has taken. In the early
part of the nineteenth century goods
we're transported mostly by pack car
riers, and as rough trails began to
open up goods were transported by
pack horse and some carried on stage
coache. A few years later railroads
began to creep over the country and
thus transportation was carried on to
a great extent in this way. Now comes
another mode which promises to be-
come as popular, if not more so than
any Of the foregoing neans-the
truck, and this will no doubt be soon
replaced by airplanes. The story, is
told Of young man who was working
in a patent office nearly twenty-five
years ago. who asked to be released
from the particular line in which he
was working as he anticipated that in
ventions would soon be thing of the
past. The young man resigned but
we notice that the old world is still
revolving, for men may come and men
may 90 but inventions will go on for
ever.
