Old Peter JTayseed Has Just Said
"a Handful of

common sense is better than bushel of schooling,
hut after all, both are good when properly mixed
together"
Playing truant with our school-days or reciting
lessons poorly and purely in a mechanical way
because of a good memory will bring no
permanent good unless we fully understand and
absorb what the teachers are teaching us.
To "go to work" calls most of our young people
all too early, especially when more earnings are
needed for increasing families, so we must not fool
away our school times for nothing.

AUT0DRIYERS

The fire department has the right of
way at all times. When you hear the
fire whistle sound, pull up to one side
of the road, to make certain that you
will not be in the way, and when you
hear the siren on the fire truck, see
to it that you keep in the clear; also
remember that it is not necessary for
you to follow the fire department to
the fire, as by so doing you prevent
frement from making quick re-
spouse, as all Of the members cannot
reach the fire hall in time to ride on
the fire truck, and so make use of au-
tomobiles to reach the scene of the
fire quickly. It is absolutely neces-
sary for the safety Of yourself and the
frement that this warning be COM
piled with. We have an ordinance in
this city covering this matter, and in
tend to enforce it. We must protect
you, and ourselves. This does not
mean the other fellow, this means you,
so take notice and govern yourself
accordingly. r..

therefore, Senator Ladd win try to
crawl under one corner Of the re-
publican tent But the moment his
republicanism conflicts with his 10y
atty to Mr.. Townley, he will be found
in the Townley tent. Everyone in
North Dakota knew that. The sur
prising feature Of it is that Dr.. Ladd
should consider it necessary to tell it
to his conferes in the senate. DR.
Ladd is first of all Laddist; secondly
a socialist; and thirdly republican.
If the republicans at Washington had
any illusions to the contrary, surely
his attack on Mr.. Taft should have
dispelled them.

a republican and never will be. He is
a political and academic demagogue
who has ridden into Office under the
republican banner. He would no more

of his party hesitated to turn against
the American flag during the war, and
conspire against his country.-Forum

INGRATITUDE AND REGRET
TABLE HASTE.

The News understands that the re-
signation of w. E. Byerly Of Fargo,
federal collector of internal revenue
for this, district, has been asked for
by the reigning powers in Washlng-
ton. This action is presumably to
make room for some worthy Office,
seeking republican who must be cared
for following the success OF the party
in the election last fall.
For the last two or three years there
have been few better "Republlcans"
for all practical purposes IN TINS
state-anywhere in North Dakota
than Mr.. Byerly and Joseph Doyle:
United States marshal for the same
district. These two well known men
have laid aside partisanship and have
devoted their efforts, in conjunction
with those of other independent citl-
zens. to the task Of removing the IN
cubus of the socialistic regime that
has cursed this commonwealth. They
have sacrificed their democracy, as
separate and exclusive uartican devo--
ton. in this work and have labored
tremendously and effectively with the
republicans and others in the lndepen-
dent voters movement which IS pro-
crossing steadily toward the solution
of the great problem.
The News would not advocate the
permanent appointment Of Messrs.
Byerly and Doyle to their respective
positions under the republican admin
istration, but the republican authori-
ties appear to be adopting a decidedly
ungrateful attitude in the matter;
Ordinarily political gratitude would
demand that the men mentioned be
at least allowed to serve out their
terms.
There appears to be an undue de-.
GREE of haste to claim and confer po-
litical regards and an unseemingly
anxiety on the part of some to get
their feet on the public warmer at
the earliest possible moment regard
less of who is showed aside and how

SENATOR LADD'S "BOLT"

Senator E. F. Ladd's attack on For
mer President William H. Taft in the
United States senate should have far
reaching results-not for Mr.. Taft:
but for Senator Ladd. =.
The spectacle of newly elected
Republican" senator assailing a man
of the record and attainments Of Mr..
Taft and attempting to read him out
of the republican party should permit
republican leaders to place Senator
Ladd exactly where he belongs.
Senator Ladd delivered his ultima
tum to the senate Monday. He pro-
poses to place congress and the re-
publican party on probation, as it
were. If they fail to live up to his
expectations he will cast one Of them
ruthlessly adrift - the republican
party, but not congress-to shift for
itself without the benefit Of his coun-
sci and doubtless without the benefit
of his Statistics"
Surely our junior senator would not
have taken such q desperate step as
this without being driven to it: The
desperate cause which. moved him to
this desperate step, we learn, was an
attack on A. C. 7ownley and William
Lemke and other nonpartisan league
leaders, delivered by Mr.. Taft in q
speech at New York university. Sem
ator Ladd leaped to the defense OF his
political mentors. # it were to come

his lot with Mr.. Townley, and with

Haywood's dear fellow workers."
OF course he would. 5lE
u Senator Ladd has = very keen intel
ligence when it comes to knowing the
side of his bread to which the butter
is applied,
. he knows very well that he has
nothing to hope for from the real re-
publicans who have contributed to the
long and creditable record<of the party
in the last half century or more. He
knows very well that any political fu-
ture he may have lies with the Town
leys' the Gilberts and the Lemkes. AS

KEEPING THE RECORD STRAIGHT

Possibly there is slight nnisunder--
standing in certain political circles Of
the purpose of the fight that has been
made in North Dakota during the last
four years against socialism and
Townleyisn.
Senator McCumber has introduced a
bill in congress calling for the APP
pointment of an assistant federal
Judge for this district, who will auto
matically be perpetuated in his job.
He will become the federal judge for
life on the retirement Of Judge Ami
don.
Just to keep the record straight and
to avoid any misunderstanding, 1t
might be pertinent to note at this time
that the purpose of the fight on the
Townley gang in North Dakota was
not to restore the Mckenzie gang to
power, nor to remove present polltl-
cal barnacles on the ship of state for
the purpose of making room for for
ner political barnacles who have been
in obscurity of recent years.
The fight was not against one gang
in favor of another.
It was a fight against all gangs
and creating new jobs for Mckenzle
henchmen through connivance with
| Mr.. Townley's vest pocket senator, Is
not the purpose of the fight being
made by the independent republican
| voters of North Dakota.-Forum.
