LORD NoRTHcLIFFE.

Probably 20 private citizsn in modern times has
exercised a more profound influence on the affairs
OF the world than that Of Lord NortheliHe, the fam
Gus British publisher, whose death has just occurred.
For years he was the principal owner and the guild
ing spirit of the >rnost important group of news
papers ever assembled under y single directorate,
and these newspapers had as their mission that Of
formulating and directing rather than of expressing
public opinion. - :
A an illustration Of the power welded by this
which they performed in enlightening the British
public on the necessity for increasing the supply Of
high explosives for the use Of the British forces in
France. Out Of the demand which this exposure
created grew the separate munitions department the
overthrow of the Asquith administration, the eleva-
ton 'ot Lloyd George to>the premiership, and the
adoption of methods which changed what might
easily have been disastrous defeat to ultimate VIC
tory tor the Allied cause in the World war.
Like every man of strong, positive character,
Lord Harmsworth was the center of perpetual dis
turbanoe. Downright, ~forceful and aggressive,
thoroughly convinced of the correctness Of his own
opinions, he advocated the policies which .le ap-
proved with a vigor and directness which prompted
equally positive opposition. A man of his type was
necessarily predestined to a turbulent career, to
strong friendships and strong enmities; and the
force with which he backed his opinions generated
elements which tested those opinions as nothing else
could have done.
Two men have stood forth in current history as
conspicuous denials of the theory that success, ad-
vancement, or whatever it may be called. is neces-
sarlly conditioned on environment. These two men
are Lloyd George and Northcliffe. Both started in
lite without means and without-inhuentia friends.
Both were required from boyhood to depend on their
own efforts for advancement. Both entered on life's
activities in a society in which tradition and class
distinctions count for a great deal. And each man,
in his own particular field, reached a position of pre-
erninence shared by few men in the worlds history.

UP TO ILLINOIS.

Resolutions passed BY the board Of directors of
the Grand Forks Commercial club condemn the I'LL
nois officials who are permitting the men respons-
ible for the Herrin mine massacre to 60 unpunished.
While it is hardly to be expected that the views of
a single commercial club in North Dakota will have
much effect on the officials in question, yet it is
barely possible that if similar bodies all over the
country join in expressing their condemnation Of
the Illinois policy of condoning murder it may re-
suit in some action.
In the meantime the question is up to the peo-
pie of Illinois. Unless they wish their state to be
regarded throughout the nation as one in which
wholesale murder may be committed with impunity
sit is up to them to clean house and see that the
nurderers are brought to justice.

HOMES Of 10000
RUINED BY FLOODS
Forty Thousand Persons Being
Fed by Red Cross.
SAY 10000 MORE NEED AID
Illinois Branch of Institution Sends
Out an Appeal for $250,o0o to
Mitigate the Immediate Suffer
ings in That State.

New Orleans, May 9.-Approximate-
ly 100000 men, women and children
are homeless in Mississippi and Lou
isana as the result of the Mississippi
river flood, and of this number 10000
are being fed, sheltered and clothed
by the Red Cross and other OrganiZa-
tons, it was officially announced here
by various relief bodies. No prOvi-
siOns have been made to aid the 3d.
900 persons who have not reached the
refugee camps, it was added.
Ask $250,oo0 for Relief.
Chicago, May Am appeal for a
relief fund Of S25O0O0 to mitigate the
immediate sufferings Of the>yictimS of
the recent floods Of the Mississippi
and Illinois rivers has been sent out
by the American Red Cross to the
chairmen OF Red Cross chapters in
Illinois.
"a careful survey Of the devastated
area" reads the appeal, "reveals the
fact that there are in 16 counties in
the state more than 1,2O0 families
homeless and in need, 100000 acres of
crops ruined and more than $50 farm
ers without feed for their stock or the
means to procure it.
"In view of these facts, it is the
judgment of this committee that $780,
600 is necessary, either in cash or it's
equivalent in seed grain and stock
feed, to place those destitute on a
Self-suppOrting basis.
Farm Groups Lend Aid.
Gin appreciation of the acute con-
ditiOn existing in the farming districts
affected by the floods, the Illinois Ag-
ricultural association, the farm bu-
reaus, the farmers institute and the
agricultural extension service of the
University Of Illinois have enthusiast
tically offered their cooperation in
collecting both funds and grain
throughout the state
This appeal has been sent out as a
result of meeting in Springfield a
week ago of representatives of the
local chapters of the American Red
Cross to form an Illinois Red Cross
disaster relief committee, of which III.
M. Merriam of Springfield was made
chairman, Adjt Gen. Carlos E. Black
treasurer and Walter Davidson, ex-
ecutive.
All Cities Are Reached.
The appeal has been sent not alone
to local Red Cross chairmen, but also
to all the mayors, chambers of COM
merce, banks and churches throughout
1.-THE state.
This makes the Illinois Red Cross
relief committee the single channel for
the disbursement Of funds, thus pro-
.viding harmony and correlation in the
direction of expenditures, and prevent
ing duplication of giving.
