The Courier News is being kept
busy these days getting the "gum"
off Gummerson and has had no time
to tell the people how the state admin
istration board has betrayed the peo-
ple's trust. Gummerson is the fellow
whom the legislators refused to long
er let into the state house to report
proceedings because he could not tell
the truth. In other words friend
Gummerson gummed himself up.

Statements that the Times Record

corroborated daily at Bismarck,

out by the senate investigating com.

the State Bank is said to have admit
ted to newspaper men that the State
Bank did not have enough cash to meet
current indebtedness and there was
one item of 5000 which he had de-

Now that the rotten disclosures are
being made public in the Scandinavian
American Bank of Fargo, N. D., and
its connection with the Bank Of North
Dakota, what steps will the judges OF

their position now-as compared with
their action at the time Attorney Gen.

on that institution and the court took
the bank under it's wing?

We have heard it rumored occas-
ionally that congress is contemplating
some sort of bonus bill for the sol
der boys that will give those who
went over seas more than those who
did not but were in the service Just
the same. We cannot see where such
a bill would be fair at all. Those
boys who went into the service and
were unable to 60 across are just as
much entitled to the same bonus as
those who did go across-it was no
fault of those boys that they did
not get over. They wore the same
uniform as the other fellows and were
ready to do just as much for the
country as those who went over and
did not get any real war experience.
If congress is going to get out 2 bonus IS
bill at all make it uniform so Inat az
soldiers in the service during the war
shall share alike. They are entltled
to it in all fairness.

According to the disclosures being
unearthed by the Legislative investi-
eating committee it is becoming more
evident that the Bank of North Dakota
was conducted more as clearing
house for taking care of good non
partisan banks and their >adherents
throughout the state-than for the
purpose of aiding and assisting the
people in emergencies. Read the re-
port of the banks which have received
aid and comfort from the Bank of

is a violation Of their personal liberty,
and that they are therefore justified in
lawlessness. It was inquired what would
be the prohibition reply to this view
point.
There is no such thing as personal
liberty under a civilized government"
said Mr.. Wheeler. Personal liberty
ends where public wrong begins. There
is only civil liberty, which is liberty
under law"
This impromptu statement must evil
IDENTIFY be taken rs suggestive rather
than complete. It leaves one to puzzle
out for himself the nature Of a civil
liberty which is not personal, and how
public wrongs should spring from In
dividual rights. None the less, Mr..
Wheeler makes the prohibitionlst point
Of view pretty clear.
Better law enforcement. More laws,
and the man who breaks them is 4

ELKS SIXTH ANNUAL BALL
Lamar Lodge No. 1919 Puts On Big
gest Social Affair of the
Season.

AS has been customary ever since
the lodge of Elks was organized in La
mar their sixth annual New Years
ball was the biggest social event of
the season. The Victory Theatre and
dance room were engaged for the
evening by the lodges well known en-
tertainment committee consisting Of
F. H. Kelsey, C. H. Wooden and o. II.
Rhodenbaugh. They put on big show
as well as a grand dance, and did not
stop at any necessary expense to make
everybody enjoy themselves.
The committee was badly disap-
pointed in the morning by receiving u
telegram from Denver that the Orph-
cum bill they had engaged had failed
to make the train. The committee,
however, promptly engaged the EN-
poria College Glee Club of twenty
young men to take their place on the
bill. A fine picture including the La
mar pictures was given early in the
evening, and then the dancing start
ed and kept up for over an hour un-
til the glee club appeared when n con-
cert was given and then the dancing
continued until 4 late hour. Three
hundred and fifty of the Elks and
their families were entertained during
the evening and the occasion was en-
joyed to the fullest degree by all. The
refreshment stand presided over by
Messrs. Hovis and Everett was well
patronized. The music furnished for
the evening by the Elks Blue Jay Or
chestra was Of the highest class and
greatly enjoyed by both the dancers
and the spectators.
This big entertainment has demon
strated more than ever before the
great need of the local Elks for a
home of their own, one big enough to
handle their lodge meetings and en-
tertainments and arranged convenient
ly for their purposes. 1t is the hope
and ambition of every member Of the
local lodge that the next New Years
ball may be held in their own home,
and a strong pull altogether will ac-
complish the desired results.

New Year Celebrated by Lamar Eagles
and Their Families.

Over a hundred members of the F.

big dance and banquet. The lodge met
in the afternoon at the lodge room and
initiated a large class of new mem
bers. At seven thirty the members
with their ladies' repaired to the
Creamery Cafe where they sat down
to one of the finest banquets ever serv-
ed in the city. Afterwards all return
ed to the lodge rooms and spent the
balance of the evening in dancing. The
occasion was one of the most enjoy
able in the history of our city and
served to increase the enthusiasm of
this strong lodge. They have plans
well under way for one of the finest
homes in the valley to be built dur
ing the coming year.
