Goldfish and Education.

Has New England, in these days Of
silk shirts and fur coats, become too
proud and fastidious for honest and
nutritious Goldfish balls? The sacred
cod still swims aloft above the heads
Of our wise men assembled in the re-
vered General court. 1t is NJ mean
symbol. It stands for those days Of
toilsome industry and frugal living on
which New England prosperity was
founded. "The lone fishball" is a
poetic work Of creative genius illus
trating the close relation between cod
fish and education. Fish was always
reputed food for the brains. IF we
have got beyond Goldfish we deserve In
our fat folly to be the prey Of the
gougers and are entitled to no com
miseration- from any one.-Salem

It is expected ten days will be saved
by this method and the cost will be
slight, in proportion to the value of
the freight. Air shipments were de-
cided upon largely because Of Ameri-

to by the premature explosion in the
Forum Of the Is. Fault is found with
the fact that the paper made public
the circumstances surrounding the de-
livery of the audit to the house when
it told of the trip which Twitchell
made to the Twin Cities to personally
secure the documents.
Twitchell Went to st. Paul "
The revelation Of this trip alone
gives the lie to the repeated assur-
ance of the L. V. A. bosses that no
one had any advance information as to
the result of the audit and that no one
was tampering with. the so-called
Recommendation.
Added to the Forum blunders is the
information received from Ed Hughes
one of the prominent movers for a re-
call election, which is now fast max
ing the rounds in all circles. Hughes,
while returning from Minot where he
spilled the beans about the recall plans
added to his story on the trip from
Fargo to Bismarck Tuesday.
He is declared on positive informa-
ton furnished the Courier News cor
respondent, to have said that he him
self helped pick the auditing firm to
90 over the state industries and that
he contributed to the fund to guaran-
tee their bill. His remarks further
continued that the "stuff that will be
fixed will force the League to help us
pass the laws we want or we will re-
call them"
The above should be taken into con-
%sideration with the fact that the house
has put Francis J. Murphy of Minot,
who helped Attorney General Linde in
his attack on the Equity Exchange
and John Sullivan of Mahdan, a bit
ter enemy of the industrial program in
charge of their Interpretation of the
report. At the same time it has de-
MED Representative Johnson, Lacquer
the right of counsel. All this with the
free advice Of Bishop, Brissman & Co.
to the state as to how it should fl
nance it's industries and run the Bank
Of North Dakota, is being taken as
evidence that the secret caucuses of
the I. v. A.. decided to play politics to
the limit, even at the risk of running
thousands of people.
What business is it of the auditing
company, for instance, if the state
does lend money to farmers on long
time mortgages?
Why did Speaker Twitchell 60 to
St. Paul if there is mo politics" in
the report? Did the action of the
Senate in ordering Bishop, .Brissmar
& Co.. to send their auditors here tc
explain the report compel a change
in the character of the report? These
and like questions are now being asked
by hundreds of people and the I. v. A
bosses will have to say something
which explains why the mud guns
have begun to roar so loudly in Fargo

FOR A COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER
BY p. L. Aarhus

Among thesmany matters that were
taken up and discussed at meetings Of
the directors Of the farmer-oWned.
newspapers, held recently at Bismarck
and Fargo one deserves wide discus
sion.
That was the reorganization Of the
corporations to bring them into the
cooperative plan, under the laws of
the state.
Two forms Of corporations are rec
ognized, by our laws. One is the "gen-
eral" form with common and prefer
red stock which grants to each share
Of stock held, one vote; places no lin
it on the amount of dividend, and re-
quires that all profit shall be paid to
stockholders.
On that basis most of the farmer
owned newspapers corporations are
organized. There are one or two ex-
ceptions.
The other is the Cooperative form"
which grants one vote to each man,
regardless of the amount of shares he
may hold; limits the amount Of his
dividend to 8 per cent; and, if there
remain any profits, permits their dis
tribution to the stockholders and pa
irons on a patronage"basis. These are
known as patronage dividend.
1t is now urged that the several cor
porations engaged in the publication
Of farmer-owned newspapers abandon
their present form and come in under
thecooperative form.
The advantages are obvious.
In the first place, such plan wipes
out the common stock, and leaves con-
troll entirely with the holders Of the
preferred stock, who are the farmers
and local stockholders.
In the second place, no change is
made in the amount of interest divi-
dend now paid to the holders Of the
preferred stock.
In the third place, it permits the
payment of a patronage dividend to
those patrons and stockholders who
have given business to the newspaper,
either by subscription, advertising or
job printing throughout the year.
BY making it zone man, one vote"
the necessity for the common stock
plan of control, as IN insurance
against the paper being "stolen" by
the opposition, is obviated.
By offering a patronage dividend.
those business and professional men
who show their fairness to the farm
ers' newspaper stand a chance of re-
ceiving recognition in substantial form
for their support land inducement will
be. held out to others to share in the
publishing profits.
The original plan Of the farmer.
owned newspapers was, in fact, that
of cooperation. BY combining anc
working together, the farmers were
enabled to establish and operate &
newspaper that spoke in their inter
est and in their defense.
It would be fitting if the plan went
further and the cooperation was ex'
tended to include business and pro.
fessional men, who as patrons and ev.
en- as stockholders, might share in thu
building up of a great cooperative
community newspaper, as opposed tt
the older idea of one-man or private.
lyowned newspaper, which, too often
serves the interest of one man or one
set of men.
The change is being seriously dis
cussed bV''' many of the farmer stock.
holders Of the papers of the state, ane
as it is discussed it opens up much
more ~favorably. It is a plan that vii
put in practice what most farmers
and most business men preach, at thi.
time.

later in s%uppressing International
warfare and strife"
Mr.. Vickrey considers the need In
the Near East and especially in Ar
menia greater than anywhere else in
the world, because, as he says, I'm the
countries Of Central Europe there are
going governments which have merely
been temporarily impoverished. by
war. In the Near East, on the other
hand, there. Is no such thing as stable
government. The whole fabric of the
state has to be created from the Begin
ming, and the innocent and helpless
children have to be trained to the
responsibilities Of future citizenship.
Peace in the Near East and, In great
measure, throughout the world, will
depend very largely on the character
Of the citizenship of the peoples of
the Near East" ~ r
Irresistible Appeal Of Orphans.
Describing the orphanage work of
the Near East Relief in the Armenian
republic, Mr.. Vickrey said:
eve have at Alexandropol in the
Caucasus, n orphanage where there
are approximately 10000 homeless
children, fatherless or motherless,
many Of them having nc known living

never believe that they had passed

most of them have experienced since
they, or their parents, were driven
from their homes In Central Turkey
Ave years ago.
.For the accommodation Of these
orphans there are sixty splendid stone
buildings, erected as barracks for the
Russian army. THESE buildings are
now given to us BY the Armenian gov

WHERE THE BLAME LIES

A great deal has been Ssaid lately
both by the press and by the county
attorney in different sections Of this
state, regarding the derelicuon Of
duty upon the part OF trial juries
in the manner in which defendants
charged with murder. in many cases
premeditated, cold-blooded and with
out mitigating circumstances, are
either permitted to go free, unlashed
by the scourge Of the law, or let off
with a ridiculous short prison SEN
tence.
Jurors are told, and truthiully told,
by the states attorneys that in their
hands rests the weil-being and safety
OF the public. Jurors are told that
TOO lax method Of handling the law
and evidence leads to the turning loose
upon the community of ccimiuals and
debauches, and that it is their duty
to see that the guilty ones shall be
punished for their evil-doings.
Without doubt there is too much
inclination upon the part Of al jurors
who sit in the trial Of criminal casea,
especially murder cases, to shake
their heads and say in their verd'cts.
by implication, well, re.haps Jim
did kill Dick and maybe Bob helped,
but then Dick always was an 'ornery'
sort Of cayote and needed killing
anyway"
without doubt many OF the YER
diets of acquittal which have been
returned by Oklahoma juries are not
only reprehensible, but are disgraceful
rs we'll Without doubt many Of the
verdcts of acquittal which have, in
the past been returned by Oklahoma
juries, have been black spots upon
the fair name Of the state and re-
proaches upon our citizenship the
law-abiding element OF the citizen
ship which ever constitutes the up
building and developing machinery
Of state.
But at the same time. the juries
OF Oklahoma are not altogether to
blame for the manner il which t5cir
members vote not guilty" in all 'co
many murder trials.
The history Of oklahoma, especial
ly since statehood. shows that mis-
guided executive clemency rendered
convicted criminals, has been TOO
freely used in opening the barred doors
which restrained them OF their liberty.
The same was in evidence in territor-
ial days. when the pardoning power
OF the President Of the United States
turned some Of the vilest criminals
loose TO again prey upon the COM
munity.
As long as Oklahoma's governors,
through misguided yioldings TO the
prompdngs Of kind hearts. persist
in pardoning convicted criminals, just
that long will trial juries be derelIct
in the discharge of the duties which
the laws OF the state impose upon
them. and just that long wul the laws
