$. Oak. "That the visionary scheme
that Townley foisted upon the people
through the Nonpartisan League was
foredoomed to failure was foreseen by
those with vision and Judgment enough
to appreciate the evil of the thing,
but they were in the minority.
Recently North Dakota sought
vainly to borrow $6,000,0OO from a
group Of Eastern bankers, the very
interests which the Townley system
was organized to destroy. With the
Bank of North Dakota virtually il
not legally insolvent and long string
of wrecked banks throughout the
State, the people have seen the light

don the socialistic program if the
bankers will undertake to float the
bonds, but the bankers have refused
to take the chance. Now they must
find another way out, and this added
difficulty should increase their ex-
pensive education along the line of
State socialism. However, it is an i'll

the calamitous collapse of the asinine
idea in the state of it's origin will have
a salutary effect upon voters in other

The death Of John Burroughs, world
famous naturalist, which occurred on
a train near Kingsville, O., March 20,
while he was enroute to his home in
the east from California, has remov-
ed one Of the most interesting and
unique figures in history. He would
have been 81 years Of age April 3.
Burroughs had spent his entire life
close to nature and he had written
a score or more Of books, sharing his
life long intimacy with birds, bees,
flowers and the various animals. Ev-
cry school boy and girl are familiar
with this lovable character and have
gained much from the information on
nature they have gained from reading
his intensely interesting books. He
has induced countless thousands of
Americans to 60 afeld, thus adding
sunshine, health and contentment to
the lives Of millions. He lived the
simple life himself. He cared little
for money. A humble cabin in the
woods along stream was more to
him than the costliest palace. His gi-
gantic brain thru those pentrating
eyes saw things that other people
were aptto overlook The name of
plain John Burroughs will be remem-
bered by Americans long after those
of our most famous millionaires are
FORGOTTEN.

This is about the time we usually
print our cleanup" editorials and we
presume that this will do about as
much good as the others we have been
printing for the past twenty years in
Minot. While nearly everybody likes
a clean, orderly house and neat yard,
it appears that there are others who
do not feel quite at home unless their
yards are filled with ash heaps and
the remains Of last years weed patch
es, otherwise known as jjungles. Its
really fun to get out into the yard at
this time Of the year and rake up
the mess that has accumulated during
the winter.N The habit is contagious,
too, for no sooner do you get your
bonfire going then your neighbor, that
is if he's good neighbor, hunts up his
rake or borrows yours, and soon the
whole neighborhood is at it. Clean
premises cost nothing, but little "el-
bow grease" that's good for ones con-
stitution. And then it's real fun to
plan the flower beds and the garden.
Of course, you start out with the best
of intentions, and you are not expect
ed to raise enough garden SASS" to
pay for the seed, but don't let anyone
cheat you out of the fun of planting
it. You never raise half as nice
things as you see in the pictures in
the seed catalogues but you can really
make very creditable showing. Plant
an ornamental tree or two each spring
on your lawn. Try birch tree,
which thrives in this cline very we'll.
A short distance west of Minot in a
coulee are any number Of beautiful
native birch trees. Plant an apple
tree or two. What is prettier than
an apple tree in full bloom? Minot
has many beautiful lawns, but there
are number of homes that may be
improved in appearance with but very
little expense. Beautifying our city
should be done in unison. Its. not
very encouraging for one to fix up
his own lawn when the place next
door remains an eyesore. Some cities
have started a regular beautifying
campaign, with the boys and girls and
the grownups all taking part. The
Independent suggests that the presi-
dent Of the city commission declare
holiday with the schools closing, per-
mitting everyone to take part. The
Town Criers undoubtedly would be
glad to take charge Of the campaign.

NORTH DAKOTA SEES A LIGHT

Of the pig was used at the big pack
ing houses except the squeal. Now
the ambition Of the laboratory expert
is to use even the squeal. But there Is
another phase OF this great research
which has wrought such marvels.
That is not merely to find a use for
something heretofore wasted. but to
find substitutes for materials that may
be exhausted. AS far as man knows
there Is a positive limit to the amount
of iron ore. And as far as he knows
there Is no limit to the amount Of cot
ton that can be grown. So If cotton
can be turned into iron. or something
just as good as iron, a real conserva.
tion Of resources occurs.
If motor cars can be made Of cotton
why not houses? What a wonderful
prospect for the cotton belt? Truly
the king will come into his own again.
If the pesky boil weevil can be con-
quered those who have cotton lands
may be the universal providers for
mankind, clothing. housing. warming,
transporting humanity. supplying all
kinds Of utensils and trif1ing articles
of domestic use.
There is one bright spot in this pros.
pect of making motor cars out of cot
ton. They will be less likely to rattle

at one of the largest motor plants in
this country are successful it will soon
be necessary to drop the nickname

close association with the principal

For an effort is now being made to

The New Preparedness.

Bankers who have no taste for
being entombed in their own vaults
must be impressed with the necessity
from within, however hard to bulge
from without. 1t has become the
favorite device of the automobile
bandits to leave the bank employees
locked in the vault while making
their escape.
The automobile has so altered the
conditions of warfare between society
and its enemy. the highwayman. that
further protective devices are re-
quired. The highwayman of old had
to depend on horses for his escape.
The modern highwayman can be half
a hundred miles from the scene OF
his operations by the time the bank
cashier emerges from his vault and
spreads the alarm. While pursuit is
equally facilitated. the advantage OF
the start is greater. and the oppor-
tunity to disappear in remote coun.
try districts or in the Businesses of
neighboring cities is improved. The
automobile has thus far increased the
offensive power of the highwayman
more than 1t has increased the defen-
sive power of society.
There is no escaping the necessity
which faces US of adopting a more
aggressive course against our criminals.
Tho present times and their lawless-
ness are. of course. somewhat alb
normal; but in all times we have too
little success in our efforts to make
crime Improbable. With some of
the burden of military preparedness
against foreigners lifted from our
shoulders. we should have strength
and energy for additional defense
against those who attack US from

Gen. Crowder and Cuba.

The State Department makes this
announcement:
Gen. Crowder. who has been acting
as special representative of the Presi-
dent in Cuba in connection with the
discussion of financial reforms in that
country. will come to washington
the State Department. Immediately
after the conference he will return to
Cuba, to remain there until the very
difficult financial problems now con-
fronting the Cuban government are
satisfactorily solved.
Gen. Crowder's services have been
satisfactory to both countries. Invited
to Cuba to advise as to election legisla-
ton. he has remained to advise about
financial reforms; and the fact that he
is to return to the island after making
a report to his home government sug-
gests that his work is not yet COM
pleted.
We are much interested in Cuba.

Spanish rule disorder had prevailed

workable shape for a new venture in
government in the island.
1t is to be said that, in the main,
the Cubans have justified our con-
fidence. Now and then they have
tripped in the management of affairs.
and more than once approached peril
ously close to failure. But they pulled
themselves together in time, and have
gone on very well.
At present Cuba, like many other
countries. Is feeling the effects Of the
great war. Her people are restless and
depressed. Some Of her industries are
out Of plumb. But, as Gen. Crowder
has made study of the conditions. his
advice about remedies will be valu-
able: and to the extent that he serves
Cuba he will also serve US. He seems
to be the man for the emergency.

Said Vice President Coolidge in a
message to the American people is
sued yesterday:
Christmas is day Of rejoicing;
New Year is a day Of hope. II there
are any who have cause to rejoice
they are the American people. There
are great burdens to be borne. but

they go forward. The expression of
their hope is not vain. it Is warranted.

This is the note that should be
sounded by everybody in authority. 1t
is the true note.
America has not failed" Neither
is she likely to fail. Her burdens are
undeniably heavy. But she can, and
will. carry on. She has carried heavy
burdens before. She was heavily

Our plight, embarrassing as it is, is
the common plight. What nation is
not heavily burdened? We are better

than we have hitherto ever gotten.

means to sustain it, what is to prevent
