PRAISES THE HOME PAPER

The "Home Town Paper" is every
where receiving the eulogies of the
great. Listen to the words of Dean
A. R. Mann, of the New York State
College of Agriculture at Cornell Uni
versity:
"The home town paper as an aid
to community consciousness and devel-
opment, deserves the support of all
who believe in the highest possibilities
of rural life. No one familiar with
the great good done by the country
press-a journalistic institution pecu-
liar to the United States-can be in
different to it's continued service to
rural affairs.
"For the past half-dozen years the
college Of agriculture has consistently
tried to help the country papers in
New York because it believes in them
and in their mission. THERE IS NO
OTHER COMMUNITY INSTITU-
TON OR ACTIVITY WHICH is NOT
IN SOME MEASURE SERVED BY,
AND IN A DEGREE DEPENDENT
UPON, THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER,
when that paper is a going concern,
as it should be. Since the college be-
lieves in whole-hearted support for
the home town paper, it is glad to
give every encouragement to the home
town paper week.
"New York's country papers are
rendering conspicuous service to the
interests of farm and home, and they
deserve the support of all those who
believe in these two great bulwarks of
the best American civilization"

be a part of the price our non-league
voters will have to pay for the privi-
lege of retaining for theselves an ad-
ministration in which they, quite as
we'll as the outside political carpet
baggers to whom we have been listen
ing for the past five years, may have
a voice.
1t is difficult yet to analyze the con-
ditions of the election in full and to
know why, with a sweeping drift to-
wards independence in the eastern
counties, there is still the reluctance
to face new light which is apparent in
the west. We of the Missouri slope
counties still greatly love to hear
"Big Business" lambasted, and wheth-
er the slow-moving regret with which
we loosen from the fellowship of the
lambasters has been because of that
fact or due to a continued hope that
something might still come from the
league leadership after all these years
of fruitlessness is a problem yet to be
solved. One thing is reasonably sure;

of u voters have at last turned their
faces away from the leaders who have
long made promises and accomplished
little good, there is no reason to sup
pose they are now in a mood to give
a competing body of political leaders
a similar length of time to accom-
plish similarly few results.
The important thing (" the present
moment is that, while any majority is
sufficient to give a new administra-
ton an opportunity to transact bust
ness, no majority is so overwhelming
ly that it cannot be promptly over
turned if the voters feel that the new
regime is failing to make good. The
Herald predicts that Messrs. Nestos,
johnson and Kitchen will make a sim
cere effort in this direction, and it
bespeaks for them the hearty support
of every earnest-minded citizen of the
state.-Williston Herald.

Youthful Appearance.

Possibly in no other country OH the
face of the globe is there such a gen.
eral effort being made to keep young
as is evident in America. So far as
the average American is concerned he
does not realize that he is making any
extra effort in the fullest sense of
that term to keep young, but the fact
that athletics forms part of the daily
life of the citizen and among the
women folks, their very attire sug-
gests youth and vigor, the appearances
do not strike forcibly nor stand out
prominently because practically every
body is keeping in the same frame of
mind.
It is no wonder then that Marshal
Foch- is so deeply impressed with the
fact as he has noted it'in his remarks
concerning his impressions received
in America and of Americans them
selves. Of the two things that impress
ed him most, he admits, the first one
he names is the youthful appearance
OF the people with whom he has come
in direct contact.
His second observation is the natur-
al result of the youthful appearances,
the tremendous proportions with which
Americans do things. Age is slow and
youth is the opposite. If America
we're an aged people accomplishments
would come with less frequency and
many of the greatest things done
would not have been realized at all.
It is not nervousness, for that con-
dition is betrayed by worried express
sions and lines in faces. Thinking
does not hurt the average American;
there are some exceptions, of course.

Americans m by reason Of his d.
rect contact with the people who have

After the Battle

North Dakota, to which has fallen
the record of being the first state IN
the Union to have used the recall
mandate against any of its state OF
f~icials, has come out from the election
with a conclusive though not an en-
Enthusiastically large majority upon the
question and has by it's vote elevated
Messrs. Nestos, johnson and Kitchen
to the high positions now held by Gov
ernor Frazier and his colleagues,
Messrs. Lemke and Hagan. Such per-
sonal disappointments as may nave
been engendered by the contest will
not, we are sure, be greater or more
enduring than those which follow any
election that is marked by strong opin-
ion and special earn~estness; and it is
the belief and desire of the indepen-
dents that the state shall, as a whole,
promptly get behind the new admisis-
tration and help it to do whatever
possible to bring about the universally
desired better conditions in North Da-
kota. Indeed, it has already been sug-
gested by so authentic a representa-
tive of the league administration as
the Fargo Courier-News that its ad-
herents do this, awaiting such favora-
BILE results, if any, as the new admis-
istration may be able to bring about.
Surely among those of the leagues
leaders who have been vociferating
their belief in majorities this will be
a proper course to follow, especially
the present majority against Govern
or Frazier will be approximately as
large as that which he was able to
obtain for himself a year ago with
all the impetus of a national election
to help him out.
Upon the Independents themselves,
the rank and file as we'll as leaders,
will depend considerable degree the
benefits they may expect to gain for
the state by the movement which is
being initiated at this time. Any very
marked restoration of confidence in
the state that may be hoped for as
a result of the present action must be
based upon a solid backing for the
present officials, without any bick-
ering of a nature which might seem to
place a question upon the reasonable
permanence Of the reformation that
is being sought to be brought about.
Patience, hopefulness and a ready
willingness to subordinate personal
preferences to the common good, will

BAINVILLE BUSINESS DISTRICT
Quilted BY MORNING FIRE

The most disastrous fire, Of un-
known origin, in the history of Balm
vile, occurred early Wednesday morn
ing when seven business houses in the
heart of the town were destroyed,
leaving the main business block en-
tirely bare with the exceptions of the
buildings on the two corners, and en-
failing a loss estimated at about $780,
100000, part of which is covered by in
surance The buildings consumed and
the firms that are now seeking new
home are as follows: ]. j. Casey, pool
hall and room;ng house, building
owned by parties in Minneapolis. The
stock in the pool hall, owned by Mr..
Casey was practically all destroyed as
was also a great deal of the house
hold furniture. The Walton Cash
Store owned by F. L. Walton, had just
been opened, stock consisted Of canned
goods and confectionery. Swanson
restaurant was also contained in this
building. Small amount of stock
saved. E. J. Biladeau, clothing store
and groceries, building owned by Mr..
Biladeau. Building owned by G.. l..
Zimmerson and occupied by Bert
barbershop and Norton's dray office.
Bainville Pharmacy building and stock
owned by Arthur c. Coultson. The
Valley Tribune plant and building
owned by A. S. HER.
The fire was discovered about 2:30
and when first seen was but a small
blaze in the rear end Of the Biladeau
building. The alarm was spread but
before a crowd could gather the adj
joining building was also discovered
to be in flames and from then on the
blaze was beyond control. There was
no wind at the time and the flames
to the buildings on both sides
and it was but a short time before the
entire row was ablaze. The Farmers
State Bank, the only brick building in
the block, was threatened several
times but by hard work on the part of
the bucket brigade, which was quickly
formed, it was saved with but a slight
damage. A small building in the rear
of the bank also suffered a slight
damage.
All losses are partly covered by in
surance, some better than others, and
some re heavy losers. The Tribune is
perhaps the heaviest loser in the
bunch, with a loss of better than
$4,000 and insurance to the amount Of
$1,000. A. G. Coultson is also a heavy
loser as are likewise Walton and
Casey. Biladeau was we'll covered
with insurance and Kirch saved a
great deal of his goods.
The loss is a severe one to the town
and it is doubtful if the burned out
section will be rebuilt. A. G. Coultson
is the only one that contemplates
building this fall. He is already max
ing arrangements to that end and if
he does not change his mind will put
up a brick building. Others are await
ing the arrival of the insurance adj
j~usters before making a statement as
to what their intentions for the fu-
ture are.-Bainville Tribune.

North Dakota Warns Demaeoeues

the public once he is given the oppor-
tunity.
And that sort of demagogy has
even ceased to be popular, indeed it
is becoming odious, The people are
tasting the bitter fruits of such dema-
gogy at this time in political and eco
monte chaos. The politician who thinks
the old game of batting business en-
terprise and bowling against property
is going to win, is lacking not merely
In honesty, but in the ability to be a
successful opportunist.
If ever there was a time when it
would be not only honest but profit
able for men in public life to consider
public questions on their merits, rath-
er than by the usual standards of po-
litical demagogy, that time is now.
Demagogical agarianism has been
whipped in its own citadel in North
Dakota. The farmers of a state where
there have been plenty of good reas-
ons for unrest, have booted the Town
ley socialists out of the state house.
The next few years are going to be
bad ones for the demagogue in Amer
lean politics. Courage, honesty and
common sense are going to be popular
qualities in politicians for at time, at
least.
And for this let US, as Americans
concerned for the future of this re-
public, be duly thankful. The most
dangerous menace to popular govern
ment is the politician whose position
on public questions represents an
abandonment of conviction, of gen.
uine devotion to the public good, and
is based only upon a cunning purpose
to befool and mislead and then to ex.
plot the people.

From the National Republican

North Dakota has demonstrated
anew the truth Of the claim that the
sure cure for ~demagogy in politics is
the demagogue in power.
The demagogue in politics is fruit
ful in promise and barren in perform
ance. The party that promised the
American people in 1912 and 1916 to
reduce the cost of government and
high cost of living, turn on a new free
dom, pulverize the plutocrats and keep
us out of war, wouldn't have garnered
an electoral vote in 1920 except for
the we'll known fact that there are a
few states of the Union in which the
devil himself could carry an election
if his name happened to be on the
Democratic ticket.
North Dakota listened to the voice
Of taemagogues, made the mistake of
putting them in power, and found that
while the camouflaged socialists of
tho Farmers Non-Partisan party were
unable to remedy the wrongs and
abuses against which they inveighed
without creating greater wrongs and
abuses, these politicians were experts,
as all political demagogues are, in
fattening the public payrolls and
boosting taxes.
The mar in politics and public life
who seeks to array class against class,
who appeals to envy and battered of
wealth and promises the people that
he is going to strip the rich man to
clothe the poor, is manifestly dishonest
in his professions of special interest
in the common people" and can be
depended upon to swindle and exploit

The name Of the new party will be

party it ought to be able to draw up
a platform that will please everybody,

that firemen are among the first to
