OUGHT NOT TO A

The bill offered by Senator Laid providing for
amnesty for all persons held in federal prisons for
violation Of wartime espionage laws ought not to
pass. 1t is vicious in principle and there is not the
slightest need for it in actual practice. The persons
who would be affected, said to number 113, have
been convicted Of crimes against the government in
time of war. They are. not entitled to, and should
not receive preferential treatment over others whose
crimes were committed directly against individuals
and only directly against society itself.
These prisoners are serving terms Of various
lengths because of ofenses of varying degrees Of
gravity. They have been tried and convicted in
accordance with law Their sentences have been
adjusted in the manner deemed just in the several
cases. The president has full authority to commute
proper application being made he will consider each
of such cases separately and on it's own merits, and
that under no circumstances will he consider treat
ing the cases in a group If the circumstances in a
particular case appear to warrant, l%eniency,T if the
offender is repentant, and if the punishment already
experienced is deemed adequate, appropriate action
will be taken. In offering this bill Senator Laid
attempts to go over the presidents head
and reverse a decision which he has made. There
through the house and senate, but if such a thing
should occur, the president could not consistently
do anything but veto it.
Mr.. Ladds bill, it is explained, would not opcr-
ate to liberate those convicted of spying or COM
municating with the enemy. Why the distinction?
Spying and communicating with the enemy were
acts performed for the purpose of impeding and
rendering futile the military operations of the gov
eminent. Advising people to evade or resist the
bonds, and other acts of like character were per-
formed for exactly the same purpose. and they had
exactly the same effect. Why make fish of one and
flesh of the other?

GREAT RAINS.

Every section of North Dakota has been well
soaked by the rams of the past few days. Some
sections have received more moisture than was well
come just at this time, as low lands that are unseed-
ed will not be in condition for work for some time.
An old timer remarks that I'VE always had good
crops on the high land when the low land was COW
cred with water" It was a little inconyenient for
the man who happened to have only low land, but
the condition in general was beneficial.
The soil Of this northwest territory can stand
a lot ofwater. Notwithstanding heavy local rains
during the past few seasons, our water supply has
been shorrt, 4 fact indicated by the condition Of sur
face wells which, once yielding a liberal supply. of
water, have either gone dry OF yield sparsely and
grudgingiy.
For this reason, in addition to the good start
given to seeded and growing crops. the rains are
welcome. .

coLoRs In on.

When a drop of oil falls from a passing car
upon the wet pavement there is no union of the two
substances. 1t is proverbial that oil and water do
not mix. The water prevents the oil from p%enetrat-
ing the substance beneath, and the oil spreads itself
in a thin film on the surface. There is, however, a
separation or arrangement of its particles, and
light waves of different lengths are reflected from
its varied groupings. The result is a color display
which is often brilliant and beautiful.
Itwould be interesting to know how many mil
lion people, had noted the fact that certain oils,
under such conditions, presented brilliant color ef-
fects before the first man conceived the idea of sep
arating the color element from the main body of the
oil and from each other. That idea, by whomsoever
conceived, was the basis of one of the worlds great
industries. Some curious idler, noting the color dis
play, may have wondered what could be developed
from it, without having any idea of its possible util-
ity. Some artist, charmed by the beauty of the
picture, may have sought to provide the materials
by means Of which it could be reproduced at will.
Or some very practical person may have been struck
suddenly with the commercial possibility of what he
saw. No matter how or where this peculiar prop
erty of oil is the basis of one of the most important
branches of the dye industry, and associated with
that industry are a score of others, inseparable from
it, and all playing their part in the great drama of
human life.

CHURCH PROPERTY.

Whatever may be the result OF the efforts now
being put forth to obtain guarantees from the Nus,
sian soviet government that private property seized
by the soviet authorities shall be restored or paid
for, little progress is likely to be made IN the eHort
TO have similar guarantees made with reference to
church property. If this policy is to be adopted,
other nations may as we'll start in on the same pro-
gram, for it has been a common thing Tor govern.
ments to take possession of church property and
dispose of it in ways quite unsatisfactory to its tor
mer owners. Great Britain and France, particular
Nv. have followed this course ON occasion, and there
are doubtless other governments represented at
Genoa of which the same thing could pc salo:
The property of individuals and that of church
organizations has been treated differently for the
excellent reason that the two are different. A
church is a quasi public body, loosely organized,
existing for other than commercial purposes, and
permitted to acquire and control property incl
dcntally to the performance of its principal tunc-
tons. Church organizations in practically all coun-
tries have enjoyed special privileges, such as ex-
emotion from taxation, government subsidies, and
often direct maintenance by the government. In
most countries at some time church and state have
been one, and in very many the church has been
that one.
The property accumulated by a church organi-
cation can in no sense be considered private proper
IT,. 1t has been acquired under the protection, and
usually through the direct aid of the government,
and it is held in trust for a particular purpose.
Obviously the authority of the government over it
is different from the authority which it has over
property acquired by the individual through his
own industry and as the result of his independent
activities.
undoubtedly the inroads made by governments
on the estates Of religious bodies has often worked
unmerited hardship. Nevertheless, the exercise OF
authority in this manner has on the whole been
beneficial. Without it the development of a church
aristocracy would have reached intolerable lengths.
Societies founded for the teaching of religious
truth would have become commercialized, and
through the possession of great and increasing
wealth would have become centers of dangerous
power and mischievous political activity.
All of these things have actually taken place at
different times and in different countries. From
time to time governments have found it necessary
to take vigorous measures to curb the growing
power of church organizations and to deprive them
Of wealth whose possession in their hands consti-
tuted a public menace. Nations which have passed
through this experience, some of them many times,
are scarcely likely to insist that Russian commun-
ism shall go to the length of relinquishing an au-
thority over this particular class of property which
every other government expressly or implicitly
claims.

A VICIOUS HABIT.

In the course of a partisan cross fire in the
House of Representatives the other day Congress
man Fordney took occasion to refer in contemptu-
Gus terms to former President Wilson. The attack
point In making it Mr.. .Fordney fell into a habit
which is much more common that it should be, and
which is neither useful nor creditable.
Besides being an office of great responsibility
the office of president OF the United States is one Of
honor and dignity. The man who holds it has been
elected to It through the free exercise of the fran
ch'se by voters representing a population of more
inan one hundred millions. The people have con-
ferred on him. authority greater than that welded bv
any hereditary monarch. No position within the
reach OF any human being is more exalted.
The man who is chosen to this position is taken
from the general, population, without reference to
any other position which he may have occupied. He
has his share Of the imperfections of mankind. He
is the servant OF the people, and his official acts are
properly subject to scrutiny and criticism.
But because of the peculiar nature Of his office
the president Of the United States. does not stand
on a plane Of exact equality with the rest Of the
citizens. II is impossible entirely to separate the
individual from his Office, and the atmosphere az
dignity which surrounds the office includes within
its scope the official himself, and places him for the
remainder Of his life IN a position somewhat apart
from his fellow citizens.
No nnericanssca an treat with disrespect the mar,
IS or who has been president s.of his country
without developing within himself. a spirit of CON
tempt for his country and its government and
thereby 1oosening and weakening the fibre Of his
own citizenship, and It IS deploEable that men like
Mr.. Fordney, CONSPICUOUS in public life, and bound
every considerationE Of fitness and patriotism "a
treat with scrupulous respect, not only the govern
lner't Sitself, but those Who have been chosen to fIl
has done, and assotf1ers offend too often.

ARE WE SANE?

Suppose somebody would suggest
that American railroad property, rep
resenting some $4,000. 100000 be ex-
empted from taxation in order that the
public might receive slightly reduced
rates as result?
A man making such a proposal would
probably be examined as to his sanity.
And yet we are today permitting
the constant issuance OF tax-empt
public bonds when there are already
outstanding some ss0,oo0,OOo,ooO of
this class OF securities, the income
from which pays no taxation to main
tain government.
The theory is that tax exemption for
these securities win enable the govern
ment to borrow at slightly less interest
rates.
The absolute security OF a govern
ment or state bond would always en-
able It 60 get money vt lower rates
than private enterprises AMI this ar
rument does not Justify the continued
issuance OF this class OF securities ana
the doubling up OF taxes on the rest
~ the people la order that ihc heliers
81 such issues may derive an income
which b absolutely exempt from tax
