FUNERAL OF EDITOR P. A. BLISS

Funeral services of Mr.. Bliss, were
held Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock
from the Presbyterian church. The
relatives were very fortunate in sec
uring the services of Rev. Hayden r.
Upton, of Worthington, Mimi, a for
mer pastor of the Scotland Presbyter-
ian church, and warm friend of Mr..
Bliss. His remarks were therefore
very personal but most fitting. The
music was furnished by Prof. r. E.
Williams, Miss Laura Johnston, Mrs.
Emma Cation and Mr.. Leroy Haynes,
and Mrs. Devine as pianist. In addi-
tion to this Rev. Upton sang, Saving
Grace" as a solo. The pail bearers

We appreciate the thoughtfulness
of all the neighbors and friends who
have been SO exceptionally kind dur
ing our recent grief brought on blythe
sudden death of our husband, father
and brother. No pains have been
spared by The kind friends in taking
care of every possible detail, not only
about the home but also in relieving
us of all responsibility in the editing

Republican. It is also complimentary
to think of the kind remembrances SO
beautifully expressed by the profes-
sion of flowers sent for the funeral.
We wish to thank the members of the
Modern Woodman, Odd Fellows and

THE NORTH DAKOTA BUBBLE.

Fallen into hopeless smash is the
new heaven of North Dakota How
hopeless may be judged from the fact
that the weary masters Of the nom
partisan league are forced to surren-
der to the bankers, that abhorrent
class, inconceivable in the perfect So
cialist class; and not a downtrodden
farmer rises against these oppressors.
The perfect socialist state banked on
it's own hook and in it's own artless
way. Now the professional bankers
reactionaries who follow accepted
banking methods, have had to be call
ed in to save the amateurs, and they
have imposed their own terms. Only
thirty-two banks have had to shut
their doors. The great mother Bank
Of North Dakota is only not legally
insoivent because there is no legal
method Of making it so.-New York

MR.. HUGHES SELECTION.

That Charles E. Hughes would be
the secretary of state in the new ad-
ministration has been quite generally
accepted for some weeks. The Jour
nal already has expressed it's approval
of this selection. It has high regard
for Mr.. Hughes qualities and attain
ments. 1t believes that he has the
character and the capability to make
a great secretary Of state. Mr.. Hughes
has had eminent experience, and he
has proven himself equal to the high
est duties. He is high minded, he is
forceful, he is aggressive, he is learned
in the law. His discernment and
judgment have been ripened by train
ing and experience that come to few
men. He is mature, and yet he is in
vigorous health. Great and illustrious
men have preceded Mr.. Hughes in the
office of secretary Of state, but The
Journal is confident that his conduct
of the office will not suffer in compar-
ison with theirs.
The appointment of Mr.. Hughes is
| assurance that the office Of secretary
of state will be restored to it's former
! dignity and authority. It is crafty
ing to have from the president-elec
the statement that in his administra-
| tion the state department will speak
for itself. 1t is not an unwarranted
assumption that the authority of the
other departments will be restored in
like manner.
Mr.. Hughes opportunity as secre-
tary of state will be large. At no time
in american history have the foreign
relations of the country been Of such
Importance as they are today. 1t will
be Mr.. Hughes task to find way
out Of the situation in which we have
become involved in connection with
the restoration of peace between this
country and Germany. His work will
need to be constructive and creative
in the highest sense. He will be look.
ed to for initiative and leadership
He will have need of boldness ane
courage-to be as wise as serpents
and as harmless as dove.
The Journal is indulging in no spec
ulation as to whether Mr.. Hughes viii
get along harmoniously with the sen
ate. Let us not attempt to cross tina
bridge until we get to it.-The Siou,
lCity journal.

Senator Wagner, of Tabor and Bon
Homme county. is the only Democrat
in the senate, but we don't lay that up
against him, for he's right good fell
low. We trim him up once in while
when he gets too democratically eco
nomical-now get what mean-when
he tries to tell us how economical the
democrats are, with their awful rec
ord along this line to prove his con-
tenton, but outside Of that he usually
votes with us or we with him upon
most measures. He was born in his
home county, and he is so popular
there that when he announced his
candidacy the Republicans got busy
right away and endorsed him, and he
had their support instead of opposi-
tion from them, for he is a real man,
and an able one, and he is doing
splendidiy here. He was in the house
one term ten years ago ,and he made
good that time just as he making
good now. He looks rather lonesome
this week, for Mrs. Wagner and that
happy little laddie and only son of the
Wagner, two-year-old Donald, the
pride of his dads heart, are down at
Omaha visiting. Senator Wagner is a
banker, he and his brothers establish
ing their bank at Tabor twenty years
ago, and you know that when the
folks in any community send a bank
er to the esante they know he is a fair
and square man, and that he will rep
resent his constituency intelligently
and most worthily: And that is just
what Senator Wagner is doing for he
is an able man, and one who can pre-
sent in brief, terse, convincing ways,
any measure he champions. He intro
duced Senate Bill 149 the other day
which is compromise on the Sunday
sports and movies, and it is thought
that his bill will perhaps suit both
extremes on the Sunday laws which
are proposed, being neither too rad
ical nor too blue. Senator Wagner is
very likable fellow when you get to
know him, and he has some dandy
good ideas, even if he is a democrat
as I said before, and don't think he
would have any more friends in the
senate were he. a republican, for ev'
eryone that ever heard about likes
him anyway, SO there ypu ares-Robt

STEALING is STEALING.

corning the moral responsibility Of
the managers and directors Of the OF
tawa, ILL.,, National City bank forsan
embezzlement of $780, 900 Of the banks
funds by 19-year old teller was
evidently this: That they had paid
the teller but little more than $40 u
week to handle money passing over
the counter amounting to $1,000, 1000 .
month; that the underpaid teller was
the support of his mother and several
younger brothers and sisters; that a
board of bank directors "guilty Of cre-
ating" such q condition of affairs
would naturally and reasonably in
vite embezzlement."
Judge Lands acted on mis-, feeiing
that the bank had sinned against the
clerk as much perhaps as the clerk
had sinned against the bank by send
ing the clerk home, while he took,
time to think the case over and decide
what to do about the sentence. He
invited criticism by thinking out
loud" in court; being somewhat BEL
ligerent by nature, the threat Of i'm
peachment by senator from South
Carolina will probably cause his hon
or to stand pat and young Carey will
not go to prison.
The details Of the case make the
judges conduct rather more than de-
fensible. The clerk took the money
from the bank, but within twenty
four hours repented, told his mother
and promptly gave himself up to the
sheriff. The bank did not lose dol
lar. The lads record had evidently
been good prior to his fall. The judge
looked him over in court and plainly
concluded that he was not wild or
vicious, but had simply been overcome
by great temptation. And so,
"Carey, go home," was the temporary
sentence of the court.
There is less to criticise in the act
ual course of Judge Lands insending
the 19 year old teller home to his mo-
ther, on probation, as it wer than in
his other dicta on what bank should
pay its clerks and whether, particul-
arly, bank is morally as responsible
as the clerk when the clerk steals. It
is dangerous to concede that low wag-
es ever excuse theft. Stealing is
stealing. In this case the clerk should
have done one of two things-either
of which he could have done before
yielding to temptation. He should
have asked his employer for more
money on the ground that living was
high in cost and that he had several
persons at home to support; or he
should have quit his white collar job
in the bank and sought one of dozens
calling for overalls and yielding far
better returns.
The incident is like many another
that has iappenei; it mas won nation
al attention only because of the pee
uliar prominence of Judge Lands. The
Judge showed fund of human SYM
pathy, but he might properly have
pointed out, while publicly moralizing
that if the morality of theft were de-
termined by the size of ones income
there might be more thieving than
work done in the world. For few
people think they ever get enough for
their toil.-Springfeld, Mass, Repub-
ican.
