ago purchased store at Cathay, ".
D., sends The World a copy of full
page ad which he recently had ran in
one of his home papers, and says
that the ad paid him better than any
investment that he ever made. 1t
brought him an unusually large a.
mount of business, and his store was
crowdede during the entire ten days
that the sale lasted. He assures us
that everything in connection with
himself, him family, and his busi.

better than it has been since he iocat:

BLOOM is MAN
OF TWO PARTIES

Records at the office of the secre-
tary Of state disclose the fact that J.
H. Bloom, formerly Of this city, but
who is now manager of the Fargo
Courier News, signep petitions for
both democratic and republican cam
didates, and for a time it looked very
much as though he was member of
both parties until a letter was received
from him instructing the secretary of
state to take his name off all republi-
can petitions, and let it stand only on
petitions of democratic candidates.

The roads throughout the Lake Re-
gion are in about as good condition
right now as they ever get, and pco-
Pile are driving to Devils Lake to do
their trading from longer distances
than what was possible since the
snow went off the ground. Each
Saturday during the past few weeks
there was hardly parking room on the
main streets of the city, and all the
stores were unusually busy places.
Most of the merchants are offering
special bargains for Saturday, and
people in both the city and rural dis
tricts are taking advantage of them.

used up its entire appropriation made
for road building, and would be un-
able to do anything for this highway
this year. A resolution was passed
appointing committee Of which A
B. Jackson is chairman to invite Con.
gresham Burtness to visit the clut
at one Of its regular luncheons il
order to talk over the matter further
with view Of getting federal aid fol
the putting of this road which is usee
as much as any in the Lake Region

Not 4 Politician.

Major II. Nelson jackson will not bt
a candidate for the United States
Senate and it is not likelyl he will be
a candidate for any political Offices
this year. This win probablyl leave the
field clear for Congressman Frank l.
Greene to be advanced to the upper
house of Congress.
The state press has generally com
mended Major jackson for this action
and the opinion has been expressed
that he would not have won had he
entered the contest.
Major Jackson is not politician and
he has often said so. The rules of the
game are distasteful to him which
would put him at disadvantage in a
political campaign. He dislikes the
seekers in general. His temperament
is individual with tendency to make
enemies by his frank and independent
action.
While there may be regret among
the majors friends that he will not 60
to the Senate yet many will be pleased
that he is not to enter the race which
would have developed into sharp and
bitter contest.
Major jackson viii be able TO
render greater service for humanity
with his connections with the American
Legion. He is one of the foremost and
most influential members Of that body
and his work has already called for
much sacrifice. His greatest strength
is in doing something for Others rather
than for self. and his glory will be in
the hearts of those who have received
aid through his efforts.--Burlington

Harding and Roosevelt.

The anthracite operators have not
been opposed to arbitration at any
time since the cessation of hard coal
mining in the spring, although they
desire the conditions of arbitration To
satisfy their interests. The anthracite
miners have thus far consistently re-
fused to arbitrate, although they too
would probably consent to settle the
dispute by that method if they could
dictate in advance just what questions
should be taken up and just how the
awards should be made. Such being
the present state of affairs, the an
thracite strike does not seen to be in
process of immediate settlement even
with the operators accepting the presi-
dents arbitration plan.
1t ia to be said, however, for Mr..
Harding in this connection that he has
interviewed in the hard coal strike much
sooner than President Roosevelt did
20 years ago. Mr.. Roosevelt waited
until October before acting and, while
he succeeded by October Is in ending
the actual strike, the settlement came
so late in the year that New England
was without hard coal for its stoves
and furnaces all the next winter. Many
people in this section easily remem-
Der the futile attempts they made to
burn soft coal on CRATES made for hard
coal and the curious devices they were
driven to in the effort to make little
anthracite 90 a long way. Trees were
cut down in this vicinity that winter
in order to supply the local demand
for green wood TO burn for household
purposes; and it was wood that would
drip in the furnace while becoming
ignited.
These facts are mentioned to en-
phazise once more. the necessity for an
early--not late-settlement. of the
strike IL we are to escape a repetition
Of the inconvenience and embarass-
ments Of the winter Of 1902 1908.

censoring the News.

Commenting on the tendency of cen
sorship laws. The Herald early called
attention to the fact that If the state
could censor motion pictures it could
sensor books, magazines and news
papers. and thata thereby the right Of
free speech could be logically at
tackled.
The attack has come in a direction
that was not expected at that time
but here it is:
One Of the inspired fatheads that
usually manage to get on boards OF
censorship ruled out part of picture
news reel, representing some girls at
the beach in one piece bathing suits.
The spectacle itself, in the living fish,
can be seen at almost any bathing
beach daily, but the censor ruled out
the celluloid reproduction.
Similarly censors have ruled out
books made from magazine stories, al
though the magazines passed unchal-
lenged through the mail, and maya
zines have been excluded that COM
mented at length on stories which had
appeared in the daily press. The next
step Is perfectly simple and obvious:
II section of news pictures in a
cinema theater can be censored by a
board Of politicians, then OF course the
whole service can be excluded; and if
news pictures can be forbidden the
public, by the next logical step the
themselves can be ruled
out. The whole thing gets into an un.
situation and the thin
edge of newspaper censorship is per-
fectly apparent.
The sooner the public realizes what
the final outcome must be of these
attempts to regulate the public prints
or celluloid--the sooner
we will stop In our steady march to-
ward political regulation OF the press.
