We are being told every day in the
Courier-News of notables outside Of
the state buying North Dakota bonds:
but we have never yet seen mention.
ed in that same paper the name OF
any notable North Dakota nonpartlsan
leader buying any of the bonds-most
of them are too busy drawing salaries
in some capacity or other.
The supreme court of Minnesota
has lust decided that the conviction
of A. C. Townley and Mr.. Gilbert for
disloyalty some time ago is all right
and upholds the decision Of the dis
trict court. This means that these
gentlemen will have to do time the
same as any other convicted persons
unless a higher court overrules the
supreme court. It is intimated they
will take the case to the United States
supreme court.
Samuel Gompers who was recently
welded and was out spending his hon
eymoon with his new wife, stopped at
a non-union hotel, was waited upon
by non-union walters, slept in a bed
made up by non-union chamber MAIDS.
He is now to be investigated by his
union labor friends for going against
the very rules that he is prescribing
for other people. In other words ne
makes it his business as president OF
the American Federation Of Labor
to advise people to trade with no one
who has merchandise not carrying the
union labor. The old mans love, fancy
seems to have made him forgetful.
Hon. J. A. Kitchen, Of Sentinel
Butte, N. D., is recommended by the
ex-service men of Golden Valley coun-
ty to the committee of forty-two as
candidate for the position of Commits
sioner of Agriculture and Labor at the
coming recall election. He was vol
unteer in the world war and also serv-
ed in Cuba during the Spanish. Amer.
lean war. He was the president OF
the Farmers Elevator and Farmers
Cooperative Milling Company, at Sen.
tinel Butte. He was superintendent OF
schools in Golden Valley county eight
years. At the time we was elected to
the state legislature he was chairman
of the Golden Valley Farm Bureau.
We are going to look forward to the
next issue of the LaMoure Chronicle
with considerable interest and expect
it will be a rather hot number. The
editor of the Cooperstown Sentinel
Courier accuses Walt Taylor of
stealing a couple Of columns OF the
Cooperstown editors editorial mat
ter which gave him a headache to get
out, without crediting the same to the
S. C. This is a very grave charge to
make, and we hardly believe that 1T
is a fact. Mr.. Taylor is oolgood an
editorial writer to need to steal any
body else's dope, and we look for
verv vigorous denial or else an abject
apology. AS friend to the LaMoure
editor we are willing to hold the
sponge for him or to act as his second
in case of duel.
Warning against a possible future
decentralization in the news. print
market, Thomas L. Williams, presl-
dent of the American Newspaper Pub
fishers association told the 34th con-
vention of that body that publishers
newspaper rates should not be allow
ed to descend. He urged upon the
newspaper publishers the need OF CO.
operating with government forces. IN
restoring world peace and bringing
world conditions back to normal and
especially repeating unnecessary war
time Legislation. and obnoxious fea-
lures Of federal taxation laws. he
pointed out that the newspapers must
meet the problems in both materials
and labor since the average contract
price of newsprint for the first SIX
months of this year is higher than the
average contract price for all last
year and labor is at the highest point
known.
The Times Record has just received
the April number of the North Dakota
Good Roads Magazine which has been
gotten up under the direction of Sec
rotary Will H. Holbein, who, being, a
practical printer, knew Just what ne
wanted and what good Job is. It is
a very neat pamphlet and contains
much good matter and Illustrations.
We notice couple Of pages Of illus
trations of our city park and some
good dope about the beauty spots
around here from the pen Of |. j. Moe;
president Of the association. In addi-
ton to being neat job Of printing
the pamphlet contains much useful in
formation in regard to road work
around the state as well as giving
many pictures Of tourist camps that
have been fixed up in various cities
Of the state. Valley City will be sec
ond to none along these lines when we
get our tourist camping grounds fixed
up.
