WHO Is

Aside from the men who actually perpctrated
the cold b'ooded murders of non-union miners in
Williamson county, Illinois, the responsibility for
the affair seems to rest largely on the county Of
hc'als. These men charged with the enforcement
OF the law appear to have made practically no effort
to protect the unfortunate victims of the mob, and
now that the CHASTITY crime has been committed
are apparently making no efforts to apprehend the
guilty nor to prevent the repetition Of such atroc-
tiles.
Either they have been overawed by the gang of
thugs who seem to be in control Of Williamson
county or they are in sympathy with and accom-
Pi'ces of the criminals. In either case they are
highly %culpablc.
Nor do the state authorities appear to have been
tree from blame. They too have truckled to the
strikers in failing to provide protection to the men
who were engaged in the operation of the mines,
and were strictly within their rights in so doing.
Nor do they seem to be making any undue haste
in seeking to bring the murderers to Justice.
Public opinion throughout the country should
demand that the perpetrators of this atrocious
crime and those who inspired it as we'll, should
be made examples of, so that it may be made
plain to all that murder is murder and will be
punished as such whether committed by a union
member or a strike breaker.

FACTS ANSWER MR.. BAKER.

In his address here Sunday afternoon B. F.
Baker, the Nonpartisan league. candidate for COVER
nor, said in effect that the advisors of Governor Il
A.. Ncstos would do their uttermost to persuade the
governor to wreck the industrial program in its en-
tirety, and also took occasion to point out that there
were ways in which the Bank of North Dakota and
the making of farm loans to North Dakota farmers
could be effectively made non-operative without a
! change in the state laws if enemies Of the institution
happened to be in control Of the state administra-
ton.
His evident intent was to create doubt of the
good faith Of Mr.. Nestos| and his associates, al
though with the record of the present administra-
ton staring him in the face he could not point to
any overt act on their part to support his contention.
A pretty good answer to his insinuation is
found in the fact that Mr.. Nestos, and his admins
tration, acting on the advice of w. B. Default, who
was appointed by Mr.. Nestos to manage the farm
loan department of the bank, are asking the people
to approve a law which they are initiating which
raises the limit on the amount of real estate bonds
which the state may issue from 500 900 to $40
600, 900. In other words, the capacity of the Bank
of North Dakota to make loans to the farmers will
be doubled if this law is approved.
This increase in made necessary by the large
amount of farm loans made by the present admin
~istration.
Rather a queer way to go about putting the
farm loan department out of business, isn't it? Al
most as queer as the method employed to wreck"
the mill and elevator which seems to consist in
rushing it to completion so that it may be ready to
handle the crop this fall.
These facts are we'll known to Mr.. Baker, but
he doesn't mention them in Ais speeches. 1t would
hardly do for the league candidate to admit for ex-
ample that the Independent administration has in
seven months given the farmers more farm loans at
cost than the league administration did in five years,
even though facts and figures show that this is the
case, h"

many loses not merely a skilled diplomat, but the
very personifcation of a progressive and liberal
lpollcy that seemed destined to ultimately place the
country in a secure position. He was not only a
statesman of high caflber but also a thoroughly
trained economist, and his prudence earned him the
sincere respect OF the former enemies OF his country
whom he, as foreign minister, had to deal, at a
series of very important conferences.
Essentially, DR.. Ratherlau was a representative
lot New Germany of the republic; Of the sane liber-
alism which now is attempting to conquer the obso-
letc doctrines lingering from the inglorious era of
Hohenzollernis,n
Because he was equally far from the reaction
airy views of the monarchists and the extreme rad
zeal opinions Of the proletariate, he was killed by
adherents of one of these groups and scofed at.
after death, by the other.
Although at the present writing nothing def
mite is known in the United States about the assas-
SINS OF Rathenau. indications point in the Direction
OF the monarchists. On these the death of Matthias
Erzberger last August was blamed, and, again, a
little more than a fortnight ago, an accusing finger
was raised against these men, when someone tenn
.porarily blinded Phillip Scheidemann with v~itrolic
acid. a mere accident preventing fatal results.
Karl Helferich, one of the Reichstag leaders
OF the react'onary group. last year was denounced
by the German press as "the real murderer of Err
berger and now he is singled out as the one man
chiefly responsible for the agitation which reached
Its tragic climax in the death of DR.. Rathenau. :
But Helfferich is not the only one mentioned
in this connection-General Ludendorff. whose
prestige is far greater, is consistently mentioned as
the man higher up in the various assassinations
and attempted murders that have been almost reg
u]ar features of the hopeless fight of the reaction
aries against the new men in Germany.
Viewed i'll a historical light, the Rathenau trag-
edy is one of the signs Of a terrific clash between
what is old and what is new. Every period Of transit
ton bears its indelible stamp of tragedy because it
is not merely a struggle between ideas of individ-
uals but rather a battle royal between two
Spirits of the Age. but in
spite OF that. the record OF assassinations rarely
shows that the result desired by the murderers was
brought about to the contrary, the friends and adj
herents of the victims usually have been inspired
to do their utmost to Illustrate the plans Of those
who 1nstigated or sanctioned what is known as no.
litical crimes.
There can be no doubt that Dr.. Rathenau's
death tor the time being will have a marked effect
on the relations between Germany and the rest of
the world, for he was the one great connecting
link between competing international views within
this sphere. Dr.. Wirth, formally Rathenau's chief,
is not possessed of qualities that can be compared
to those of the dead statesman. and it is generally
known that he drew heavily ON Rathenau for advice
and suggestions every time it was necessary to take
a step of Importance.

MARKING TIME AT THE HAGUE.

ing newspaper reader that very little news has
reached this country from the economic conference
now in session at The Hague for the purpose of try
ing to find a solution of the intricate Russian prob
lens. Virtually, the only facts that have been re-
ported since the meeting opened on June Is, con-
Germ the admission of newspapermen into the con-
ference halls; the somewhat modified attitude of
France toward the questions at issue, and the APP
pointment Of ~sub-commissions to which special
angles Of the problem have been assigned.
There IS, of course, a reason for this dearth of
real news. The reason is not to be sought at The
Hague, nor is it necessary to look for it at Paris or
London. 1t is Moscow, the capital of Soviet Rus
tsia, that once more is the center of attention, and a
is~itnation is developing there that necessarily must
iretard any progress which the experts gathered in
the Dutch Palace of Peace might be DESTROYS of
making.
Conflicting are the rurnors that emanate from
Russia, and the very fact that they do not agree,
seems to indicate chaotic conditions which are not
being mastered by those in control.
1t appears to be still a question who actually
holds the reins of the Russian government, but the
report that described the appointment Of a triumvi-
rate, consisting Of Rykof, Kameneff and Stain,
seems to be the most reliable one. These men have
been known as the ieutenants of Nikolais Lenine-
the Soviet master mind that now has been broken
up by disease-but they are without the prestige
of their teacher. Pitted against them are three 9TH
er men, Trotzky, Zinovief and Karl Radek, who
are far better known abroad than the three men
reported IN power
These two groups are thought to hold widely
divergent views in regard to the foreign policy of
Russia. the most vital object Of which is the re-
storation of the old status so that and
trade may revive.
Some Moscow reports are to the effect that the
two groups may form a coalition government in
which case it is considered probable that Krassin
and Tschitcherin will be invited to accept high
posts because they are the only Russians who have
been in direct and close contact with the outside

GUARDsMEN DESERVE CREDIT.

Members of the North Dakota National guard
who have just returned from a two weeks training
period at Devils Lake, are men who are serving their
country with deeds, not mere words.
AS the situation stands at present the National
guard would be the nations first line Of defense in
the event OF war. The regular army would be
able to do little more than supply the necessary
training instructors, and the special experts in
various lines which modern warfare requires. 1t
is on the National Guard that the nation must RELY
for the main body of first line troops. &,
thus the men who serve in the Guard are pre-
pairing themselves to be of the greatest service to
their country at the time when the greatest need
for this service may come. For this they ordinarily
receive small thanks from most of the citizens whom
they serve. '
Everyone who has attended a national guard
camp under modern conditions knows that it is
not a pleasure outing but a hard grind for which
practically the only recompensc which the guards
man receives is the knowledge that BY it he has
made himself more fit to answer the cali Of duty
whenever it may come.
Certainly then the least that the people Of North
Dakota can do is to accord to their national guards
men the commentator which is their due, and to
cooperate with them in their efforts to make the
N,rth Dakota guard as efficient a corps as any in
the country. Every citizen should realize that the
national guard is one Of the states greatest assets
and should do what lies within his power to en-
courage the young men Of his community who are
physically able to join this force which is so valu-
able to the state and to the nation as a whole.
