Fall to Make Long

BUCHAREST. May 14.-Queen
Marie of Rumania may foregO her
coronation this fall in order to visit
the United States. Since the sign

been planning 70 90 10 the United
States but pressing affairs In her

pouring in on her SO fast that she

While the queen has not received
an official invitation from Pres't
Harding. Il is known that the Amer
lean government would welcome
and entertain her. The Rumanian
government. however, would prefer
that the queen receive a formal in
vitation from the White House in
order that there might be no mis-
take concerning her status. Marie
has not yet set any date for depart

No Personal Motive
The queen Sunday made it clear

K. NEW YORK's CALAMITY.

Your true New Yorker stubbornly maintains
that the$worst weather his great city has ever ex-
|perlenced swooped down upon it March IL, 1883,
IN the shape of a record blizzard, and whenever Sc
we're meteorological disturbances occur, references
to that memorable event are invariably made.
1T seems likely that June, II, 1922, also will be
"a day to remember by the New Workers, for the
storm which cxacted a toll of lives given as between
sixty and eighty, is unprecedented in the history of
Gotham. In fact, it seems to be nothing short of
perplexing to those who attempt to describe it, for
1t is variously characterized as a hurricane, a lorna
do, a cyclone, etc. Nv
Now it has always been claimed that New
York, by reason of its rock foundations, was cy-
clone-proof. and the worlds tallest office buildings
have been constructed with the certainty in the
make an attempt to sway them. a.
Sundays storm afforded, no definite proof Of
the assertion that the sky-scrapers are immune, for
the telegraphed descriptions indicate that the prin-
opal section of the storm area is situated far north
of the business district extending from Battery Park
to 42nd street. The tail of the twister must. how
ever, have been pretty close to the line of demarca-
ton between the business and the residence sec
tons, tor 1t appars that trees were uprooted in Cen
trail Park. the main entrance of which is less than
half a mile from the crowded business part Of the
city.
The terrific storm has taught the New Workers
a lesson they had always been inclined to believe
that catastrophes of this particular kind belonged
solely tothose remote southern and middle western
parts of the country which they have come to con-
slider as an extension Of "Main Street" They now
know that the wrath and the fury Of Nature still
DEFY even the highest human skill play with the
results of even the most intensely specialized think
ing: destroy in a few minutes what may have taken
years to build up.
And the New Workers will realize that even as
Nature respects no geographical lines, so do human
hearts ignore them-and the sympathy of all Amer
leans wherever they may dwell, goes out to those
who mourn, and are struck dumb with horror.

THE RETAIL

Retail merchants Of North Dakota are now
holding a three days session in Grand Forks, and
The Herald is glad to add its word 0 .thc welcome
extended to them by Mayor Henry Q'keefe and
others. s
The last year or two have been hard ones for
the retailers as. well as for those in all other lines Of
business and only the fttest have survived:t There
lore the men who are now gathered in Grand Forks
may perhaps be regarded as picked men, whose abil-
lty and perseverance have carried them safely
through the period. of storm and stress.
Most observers Of business meteorology agree
that the weather is now clearingtup up, and that a
brighter day for business. is now ~dawning. The
merchants who are here for this convention in gen
eral seem to agree that the. storm has passed and
that they may reasonably expect an era of fair bust
ness weather. = gs
The period of depression through which the coun-
try has passed like every other cloud has had its
silver lining. 1t has resulted in improved merchan-
dising methods on the part of those firms which
have passed through it safely. !. These lessons will
not be forgotten it is to be hoped>now that the busi-
ness sea is growing more calm.
1t is such meetings as the one now being held
here, when merchants from all parts of the state
meet together to exchange ideas and to give each
other the benefit of their experiences, that bring
about better business methods. There can be no
doubt that the present session will be productive of
much good to all of those who attend it.

CHAPTER v.

The Prime Minister and Mr.. Harley
Packe stood a little apart in the lat
ters drawingroom watching David,
who was talking to the Duchess of
Cardiff and her daughter. The Prime
Minister'S eyes stwinkled.
Il am inclined to think. Packe," he
remarked, that if either of us had
been as handsome as that young man
W e should have had a trouhlous

ulous and he would have been assas-
sinated directly he, crossed the from
tier" ~
Dinner was at that moment an
nounced. Mr.. Harley Packe gave his
arm to the Duchess OF Cardiff. David
followed with Lady Gertrude, and
the Prime Minister brought up the
rear with Lady Nevins-Carr. The
meal was served in a smaller room
opening out offthe main dining room,
and from the first was a successful
junction. David, unawares that he
was being skillfully drawn out by his
host. talked freely and without re.
serve of. his country from a non.
political point Of view, OF her in.
situations, her resources. her scenery
and her architecture. Every. one was
interested and every one appreciated
the note of real enthusiasm in the
young mans tone.
What "a hideous shame" the
Duchess whispered to her neighbor
that that young man should be ar
exile. Can't something be done abou,
it?" Z
The Prime Minister smiled.

replied. The Republic came into

~ Every new cablegranl from European news
centers makes it almost certain that the death Of
Nikolai Lenine, virtual dictator of the Russian
Soviet government, is. but a matter of a few hours,
or at the most a few days. 1t seems likely that
even though hes may survive the crisis that now.
threatens him. he will pass forever from the power
which a play Of circumstances swept into his hands
in November, 1917. - 81
If that happens, Russia %will still remain in a
chaotic condition, for all indications point toward
revolutionary risings. Observers on the ground
claim they have reason for believing that Leon
Trotzky, minister of war, will make an attempt to
seize power as the supreme executivesof Russia, and
that such an attempt will be preceded by an attack
on Poland to be made for the purpose of gaining
needed prestige. 1t should be added, however, that
while the rumors Of war against the Polish republic
are believed in many places on the continent, Brit
ish authorities are inclined to discount them, in view
Of the fact that Russia's signature is appended to
the non-aggression pact formulated at Genoa last
month. r
At all events, Lenine'st passing from the gov
eminent seems almost certain, and, for that matter,
his personal influence has not been strongly felt dur.
ing the last four months which he has spent in a
house in the outskirts of Moscow.
Whatever else the judgment of history may be,
it cannot be denied that he has been a political
power of quite extraordinary caliber; he was the
actual creator of the Soviet system of government,
and he has been shrewd enough to understand that
at times it&pays to yield a little ground in the face
of organized opposition, such. as was offered him by
the outside world.
During the last year or two the iron hand with
which he held sway seems to have been stayed-to
some extent. He will be judged most. severely for
the acts which he sanctioned during the first two or
three years of his regime, and it is likely that pos
terity will consider later f~exibility an ~expiation of
his earlier sins which, if reports are true, have been
truly appalling. ~
He was a man of force, not Of heart; even the
plea of expediency will not whitewash the reputa-'
ton he gained as the scourge of his OWL people, as
the Attila of the Slavic world.

AN, ATHENIAN PARALLEL.

Those who maintain that there is nothing new
under the sun may find support for their contention
by the study of the comedies of Aristophanes who
wrote in Athens some 800 years or more before the
Christian era. In THE Knights" one of his works,
we may find a picture of political conditions in Ath-
ems which might apply to modern politics in North
Dakota without any great stretch of the magma
ton.
We have the Athenian democracy portrayed
as an old and suspicious slave owner, who consist
emily mistreats his faithful slaves and is easily led
by the specious Aattery Of a skillful politician who
|cajoles and deceives him, and who was intended
by lAristophanes to represent a demagogue named
Cleon who was a sort of glorifed forerunner of "A.
C. Townley.
As one listens to the political rhetoric of cleo
tlo0 times in North Dakota, it requires no great
stretch of the imagination to imagine ones self
transported to ancient Athens, standing in the mar
ket place and listening to the swelling rhetoric of
Cleon, his denunciation of all opponents, his unlim-
TIED promises of victory and prosperity providing
only that he and his supporters are given the sup
port OF the voters, which is only too often given.

THE VALUE OF PERSECUTION.

In his commencement address to the seniors at
Wesley college Dr.. K. R. Stolz pointed out that re-
ligion is not a disconnected and detachable, interest,
but an elemental and basic component Of human
nature. In this he is entirely correct, but the fact
remains that to make the man in the street realize
this truth is the great problem of the church today.
We today pride ourselves on our religious toll
Grafton, and regard with horror the history of the
frightful prosecutions of the past. Terrible as these
were, and from our modern point of view, without
moral justification, they nevertheless made religion
a very vital thing in the life of every individual. To
the man of the fifteenth or sixteenth century for.
example his religion was as vital and practical a
factor in life as the Nonpartisan league question is
in the life of a North Dakota citizen today. We
may in this day regard the religion as a horrible
and perverted thing but a real religion it was, as
real as that Of the Christian martyrs who faced
death in the arena Of Nero or Domitian.
Now we have religious federation, and with re-
1igious federation has come religious indifference.
In fact it is an open question how much of our.
boasted federation is due to real broad mindedness,
and how much mere indifference to religious ques-
tions. 54
No one in the twentieth century can wish for a
renewal of religious strife and persecution "for
conscience sake" but it must be recognized that the
church today has SO far failed tos6nd any means SO
efficacious as were the CORY names of Nero's lions
to bring to mankind, the realization that religion is
