CHOOSE YOUR SLOGAN

. The national debt IS now about $ZlU Tor
every man, woman and child III America.
However, it is nearly twice as big as all
the money invested in the country's tele-
phone, telegraph; electric railway and cleo
trio power and lighting systems combined:
The national debt is more than six times
as much as all the money invested in the
iron and steel works, rolling mills and blast
furnaces. ,-~ ~
If the people were to chose slogan for

Instead of wet or dry Slogan or issue

A 1--WE ISSUE?

Although a cemetery is usually consid-
cred rather dead issue, the problem
now confronting the Cemetery Board of
this city is quite live one. a's = -.
The present cemetery is fulT UP: No IA
mily lots for sale and added ground is
needed Where the board should secure the
ground is the question:: 'They4have endeav-
ored to secure sentiment from the public
through the various city organic cations, but
are still at sea. n, o. 49,
~ Members of the Civic and Commerce
Association were asked their views in the
matter and the majority were in favor Of
securing property to open up new GEM
etery. The reason for this seems to be that
the present site is too central and that
property owners naturally object to en-
larging the present grounds.
W. N. Bowser suggested that the board
secure one hundred or more acres three
or four miles out, so that the question
would be settled for years and years to
come. If ten acres adjoining the present
grounds were purchased, in ten years the
same problem would confront the board.
The sentiment thus far voiced favors
the purchase of added grounds elsewhere
and out from the city: The board must take
action soon and is anxious to hear opln-
ions from all, before investing in addition
al property.

THE 18TH AMENDMENT

If any Of the light wine and beer ad-
vocates. voted for candidates Of Democra-
tic faith at the last election because they
were opposed to the stand taken by some
Republicans, they should be reminded
that the 18th Amendment was enacted
under Democratic administration.
Furthermore, they should be-, advised
that the only way to get back the saloon
is to repeal the 18th Amendment: The
people put that over and the people will
have to put it under. ....
These "boys" who were elected to Of
flee because of their wet stand will sure
have some time fulfilling promises, if they
made any in a trade for votes.
And while we are at it, permit us to
say that no power from legislatures or Of
flee holders will have any effect upon the
repeal of the 18th Amendment, but that
this repeal must come from the people
through the ballot.
We also might add that the so-called
widespread violation of the 18th amend
ment is desperately rotten, but how about
other violations, for which We have laws
to govern. When you compare the number
of murders, robberies and other crimes
(for which we have had laws since time
began) with the violations of the 18th
amendment, which has been in force, but
a few months, it isn't so bad after all.
They tell us that boozs and moon" is
being shipped into; the cities by the auto
loads and by airplanes nowadays. "Sure'
says the Minneapolis Journal, 1--WE can re-
member when it was shipped in by train
loads" and it wasn't long ago at that.
Every violation of the Volstead act is
being played to the galleries. The vets
want to show, that it is worse than it &C
tually is pictured, and that restoration Of
light wines and beers would put the country
back on a safe and sane basis: In fact
some pretty decent fellows, right here in
Bemidji believe this. Probably they don't
like the taste of the "swill'' that is dished
out from the stills these days. We don't
blame them very much. Certainly fine
glass of wine is not to be compared with
the samples of "high-grade moon.' At least
we would take a chance on the wine, but
not; on the moon
The point at issue is; how to remedy con-
ditions. This applies to the violation of the
18th amendment as we'll as to the violation
of murders, theft and other crimes. Why
pick on the violations of the Volstead act
and forget the others, especially when one
is new law, just mere infant, while the
others are as old as the nation.
