AN HONEST DAYS WORK

It is the oft-proclaimed theory of
trade unionism that it produces more
deficient workers and better produce.
ton results.
It is the growing practice of trade
unionism to give less and less work
for the days pay.
Thus do theory and practise diverge
Railroad shop foremen report that
their recruits are turning off much
more work ina day than was the rule
with men who have quit the job. They
add that under new regime it is go.
ing to be possible to turn out the nee
|essary shop work with fewer men and
at considerably less expense.
What does this mean? It means
that railroad service can be given the.
public at lower cost, and that freight
rates can be lowered without wiping.
out reasonable profits or unduly low
ering wages. It means that the pub
lie, which supports the railroads, will
get better and more service for its,
money.
Unless trade unionism executes an
about-face and adopts the policy Of an
honest days work for a fair days
pay, it is marching toward destruc-
ton. Minneapolis Journal.

THE REAL REASON

Two reasons for their action are
given by members of the "Big -Four"
brotherhoods who have quit work.
One may be valid one; the other
isn't.
One reason given is that the rail-
road equipment has been allowed to
deteriorate until it is dangerous for
the men who operate trains. In cases
where that objection is honestly made,
it is wholly reasonable one, and de-
serves consideration. But one can
readily see how any union man would
consider any repair work done by
"scab" as unsafe.
The other reason given is the pres
ence of armed guards around railroad
property, and this objection is not so
easy to understand. No person who
is peacefully inclined has anything to
fear from member Of the state mill
tia or federal soldier. They are
sent for but one purpose-to maintain
order and anyone who is not looking
for trouble has nothing to fear from
them. Surely there has been enough
violence at Herrin and other places
during the last few weeks, to show
the necessity Of having protection for
i property and for the lives of strike
breakers.
The only persons who have any
thing to fear from either state or fed
eral troops, are those intent on slug
cling strikebreakers, or destroying
property and surely no reputable un-
ion. man is willing to admit that he is
contemplating such acts.
The real reason, Of course, is that
the brotherhoods want to see the shop
men win. There is nothing shameful
about that desire, and no reason for
concealing it. If brotherhood mem
bers do quit, they would be wise to
state their reason frankly. Unionism
so far as the railroads are concerned,
! is fighting a most important battle,
and the brotherhoods are naturally on
the side of the shopmen. They would
have better standing with the pub
lie generally if they would state that
reason frankly and not try to place
the responsibility for it on "the gun
| men" as the soldiers are called. The
presence of the soldiers is necessary,
and after the Herrin massacre it is
not going to be- easy to convince the
average citizen that protection of pro-
perty and of lives of strikebreakers is
not both necessary and desirable. -.

BALFOUR RIGS HIS SLATE

earl Balfour was not at all frank
in his address to the other allied ma
lions on the subject of cancellation of
debts'', says the Republican Publicity
Association, through it's President,
Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr. ellis sug-
gestion that debts be cancelled all
around, or, as newspaper headliners
have been pleased to express it, that
the state be wiped clean leaves the
impression that he was proposing for
the United States nothing different
from what he proposed for Great Brit
ain, France, Belgium or any other ma
ton.
"The fact is, however, that the cir
cumstances are not identical. Great
Britain is not only a creditor but
debtor. The United States is a cred
itor only. If Great Britain should
cancel So of uncollectable debt due
her and in return therefor have the
United States cancel 81 Of uncollecta-
BILE debt due from Great Britain to
this country, Great Britain would be
so much the gamer. This country, on
the other hand, has no creditor which
it could also ask to cancel an obliga-
ton. This 'wiping the slate clean
would therefore, mean that all other
nations would be relieved of their OBJ
legations while the American people
would be left to tax themselves to
raise the $11,000,000 to pay the obi
cations issued in the form of Liberty
Bonds as a means Of raising the mon
ey which we loaned to Great Britain
and the other allied nations.
"When all of the parties to trans
actions occupy the position of both
debtor and creditor, the striking of
galances is convenient and an en-
tirely just method Of settling accounts
If Jones owes Smith and Smith owes
johnson and johnson owes Jones, the
circle of Indebtedness can be liquida-
ted by each of them cancelling an eq-
r
ual amount Of debt. But if each cred
itor did not also owe an equal amount
the process of cancellation would very
clearly leave the first creditor loser.
ut is notable circumstance that
a very large number of prominent
newspapers, most of them advocates
of the league of nations and closely in
sympathy with the international
bankers, have presented to their read
ers Earl Balfour's suggestion concern
ing the mutual cancellation of debts
but have failed at the same time to
call the attention Of their readers to
the fact that the United States is not
a debtor and, therefore, not in po-
sition to share in the benefits of the
cancellation scheme. A newspaper
that will thus unfairly present case
to the disadvantage of its own coun-
try and its own readers lays itself OBJ

THE PEOPLES GOVERNOR

The people of North Dakota may
well feel thankful that they have a
man like r. A. Nestos in the COVER
nor's chair.
No man ever took the high position
of governor under more handicaps
and disadvantages than did Governor
Nestos. But he was not dismayed.
With undaunted courage and splendid
judgment he went to work and ap-
piled himself to the huge task before
him.
One Of the first moves made by
Governor Nestos was that of urging

Once more foolhardy truck driver
has not only lost his own life but
caused the death of several others
while score or more were seriously
injured early Saturday morning thru
the foolhardiness of a truck driver.
Fred Ramer, of Maple Lake, Mimi,
was driving big oil truck and tried
to cross the track at Annandale,
Mimi, ahead of passenger train 107
of the 500 line. He is dead as a re-
suit and several others with him. G.
H. Rain, brakeman, said that when
he saw Ramer continuing on his way
across the tracks he called to him and
pointed to the approaching train. Ra-
mer waved his hand and smiled as
much as to say he had plenty of time
to cross the tracks and he kept on.
This is only another story like you
read about from day to day in the
daily newspapers, and you can see
many close calls right here in our own
city of Valley City. We have seen
personally time after time people
shoot across the N. P. tracks here af-
ter the gates are half way down and
a train coming into the depot. That
they have not been struck by a train
is just streak of pure luck so far as
they are concerned. The railroad COM
pany cannot be blamed under such
conditions. Those tracks belong to
the railroad and they have a right to
run their trains over those tracks,
while on the other hand it is up to
those driving automobiles to look and
listen before attempting to cross the
tracks. Trying to beat an onrushing
train is taking a short cut to death
as in this case at Annandale. The
public should guard against such do
ings and car drivers especially should
sober down and not try to see how
close to death they can get while
carrying others along with them. The
same foolishness rules on the roads
of the state. Many auto drivers con-
slider that the highways are built es-
pecially for their own personal con-
venience and race down these roads
at top speed, keeping the center CT the

J is heavy one. 1t points oat that
not only is agriculture conducted by
the most primitive methods but that
crop prospects for this year are ex-
ceedingly poor, the export of cereals

fallen from $1,000 metric tons in jan

January of this year. Jugo-Slav in

agriculture has also resulted in the
quadrupling Of exports of liyeSock ant

ces are in an equally unSaticfa tory
position. Despite claims that the Gov
ernment's budget for the year balan-
ces, the Institute declares that his re-
suit has been obtained by over estina-

concludes. "This was evidence by the

People are wondering if the gov
eminent of Illinois is going to do any,
thing with the mob murderers who
murdered some thirty odd citizens
some time ago as a result of these
strikes. The authorities have claimed
that they have secured evidence on at
least 500 of the lawless ones who par
ticipated in this foul wholesale muir
der that has put blot not only on
the state of Illinois but on the United
States for allowing things to drift
along without bringing these murder
ers to the bar Of justice. Are the au-
thorities of Illinois going to close their
eyes and allow this bloody massacre
of citizens go by-are they not going
to bring these murderers to the bar
of justice? And are the authorities
of Illinois going to say that other cit:
liens who want to go to work in a
peaceful and law abiding manner, can
not be guaranteed the protection that
is due them under the American flag
as citizens of this country. If the Ill
inois government cannot do this then
it is up to the attorney general of the
United States to proceed to see to it
that the people of this country are
guaranteed life and liberty as prom
ised under the constitution of the
United States and a right to exist and
work without being shot down by a
lot of cowardly strikers who are at
tempting to hold up the nation in the
mine and rail strikes and who, not
willing to work themselves, refuse to
let others work. The time has come
when the people Of this land of ours
must be better protected by the state
and national government if we are to
keep up our traditions for giving ev-
cry man and woman in the country
a right to live in the pursuit Of hap
piness and liberty. We boast about

who seemed to be taking great
deal of interest in the presiding
Judge.

was bound to explode. So he
walked proudly up directly in front

A burst of laughter went over
the room, because everyone thought
the child was referring to the man
on the bench. However, upon
further investigation it was dis
covered that the Judge was not the
one to whom the boy had reference.
but that he had made a discovery.
