but as vet, no panacea has been found
for il. and every few years We have
an avalanche of good and well train
ed agricultural workers forsaking the
fields, and thronging the more remu-
nerative lines of activity. IL is, at
last, beginning 10 dawn upon the
minds of some of our best thinkers
that the only thing that will check
this drift from the farm and into
other pursuits is TO make the bus ness
of agriculture 4 remuneratlve laass-
try, and let il become one of the av-
enues through which men may graf
ify their desires by finding less re-
sistence. There is not any use to
preach from swivel chairs the Won
derful advantages of farm life when
men who are out in the fields, between
plow handles know the preaching Is
punk" and there is not any use 10
try to pursuade bankers to loan farm
ers money when the banker knows
that under present conditions the
whole agricultural fabric is liable at
any time to collapse and make the
poor fellow unable to pay, and there
is not any use to tell the intelligent
farmer that he is engaged in the fin
est business in the world when he
knows by oft repeated disaster that
he is the dumping ground for almost
every i'll.
We are not writing thusly on the
Keziah move to create the impression
that he is failure; far from such is
he, but being both farmer (and above
the averagel and contractor, he was
in much better position to Judge as TO
which line of endeavor was giving
him the greatest remuneration.

The nonpartisans are not satisfied
with the lay out in the Fifteenth leg
islative district of Barnes county and
we have it on good authority that they
are getting out stickers for George N.
Rasmussen to run as an Independent
candidate at the November election.
The entry of Mr.. Rasmussen into the
field will complicate things all right
and may endanger the election of an
Independent candidate in this district
The nonpartisans are going to make
the supreme effort of their lives to
capture the state legislature and it is
up to those who want taxation reduc-
ed and the state to return to normal
cy to unite on the regularly nomin-
ated candidate for this district. This
Rasmussen deal is only rumor to BE-
sure, but where there is so much
smoke there is sure to be some fire
and we might as we'll get busy ano
make a real fight to get the ]egisla
ture.

The political air has been greatly
cleared in the past two or three days
by the statements made that Senator
Porter j. McCumber would not become
an Independent candidate at the No.
vember election. This decision is said
to have been arrived at, from advice
from friends of the senator who have
strongly advised against his entering
the race. Had he become candidate
it would have only balled up the sena-
torial fight and would have made the
election of Frazier sure A three-cor-
nered fight would have been the finest
thing out for the nonpartisans and we
rather suspect that his withdrawing
from the race is bitter disappoint-
ment to that bunch. With the situa-
ton narrowed down to the two candi-
dates-Frazier and O'Connor, the
chances of the latter winning out have
been greatly enhanced. The indepen-
dent forces can now settle down to a
united pull to put Mr.. O'Connor over.
1t can be done.

Soviet government. Americans are
forced to earn their own living and 70
work hard for what they get and there
seems to be no logical reason why Eu-
ropean countries should not do the
same thing. Diligent search might re-
veal a number Of persons in the Unit
ed States who are facing hard Win
ter without enough clothing or food.
If anybody has money for which they
have no use why not donate to our
own people? Then again, there are
undoubtedly number of people in
! America who have been too lazy and
indolent to provide for their families
or themselves. Popular opinion has it
that a man should earn his own way,
providing he is physically able and has
the opportunity, but if we are going
to pay a premium for laZiness and in
dolence why not start at home and
donate to those persons in our midst
who don't feel like working and let
them enjoy the fruits of Incidence !?
That action would certainly be con-
'demned, and justly, but that is just
what American people are asked TO
do in the case of the Russians. Of
course it is fact that those respon-
sible for the necessity of relief are
not the ones who suffer from the ef-
fects Of their work but as long as the
people get the relief no concerted &C.
ton will be taken by them to put
those responsible out of positions of
lpower. Withholding of relief will
force the sufferers, and they are in
the great majority, to concerted ac-
ton in displacing the radicals from
governmental positions and putting
the country on sound economic ba-
sis. When they take such action nc
further relief will be needed by them
The cure may be more severe than the
disease but it is certain cure and
Russia is not likely to get back on 3
sound basis until such dras tic action
is taken.

The Courier-News, in an extended
editorial in Sundays issue, upholds
Townley's war attitude and states
that, given a choice between Nestos,
OConnor and Townley, the honest
man would say, "Give me the jailbird,
Townley." Of course we understand
that the article is written to uphold
Townley's war attitude, in which he
did everything possible to block the
governments conscri ption work, and
also to hold Townley up to the people
of North Dakota as a martyr but we
fail to get the connection between
Townley's war attitude and Nestos'
war attitude. We belive, the same as
other North Dakota citizens, that
Townley was governor when Frazier
carried the title but we didn't sup
pose that the league official newspa-
per would be suggesting that Townley
was running against Nestos in this
election-at least not so early in the
campaign. Lemke has been assuming
that he was the big man in the party
for some time. He and Townley have
evidently kissed and made up but we
do not believe that he will be greatly
flattered by the suggestion that Nes-
tos is opposed by Townley in this cleo
ton. Undoubtedly the election of
Lemke will mean the return of Town
ley to dictatorship in North Dakota
affairs but the suggestion, this early
in the fight, seems little premature.
However, if it is Townley VS.. Nestos
instead Of Lemke VS.. Nestos we will
be forced to pay more attention to the
doings of Townley in the campaign,
even though his chances of getting
very far are rather slim.
Probably Great Britain never back
ed down so abjectly as it has done in
the Turkish question which has been
agitating Europe of late. After tell
ing Turkey what it would do to it if
it persisted in its move toward Con-
stantinople England has listened to
the advice of France and Italy and
lowered it's colors to the brutal Turk.

England says that it does not like
our new tariff bill, Italy says the
same thing, Germany comes back with
a wall that it is bad for chat country,
and so it goes with all countries who
have formed the habit Of dumping
manufactured goods made up from
cheap labor in direct competition to
the well paid American laborer. The
democrats, of course, always being
against the government on general
principles, are much opposed to the
tariff bill, and are now making chat
one of their main campaign issues.
That has been the attitude of the dem
ocratic party since time was and that
party came into being. Under these
circumstances the new tariff bill must
be a pretty good thing for America
after all. When all the nations of the
world kick on it it must be worth
much to this country.

Efforts to Divide Sixth

JoHNsToWN, Pa, March 20
With the election Of a district
governor late, this afternoon, the
1922 convention Of the nterna-
tional Rotary Clubs Of the sixth
district will come to5a5 close. At
the business session this morning,
the following nominations for this
office were presented: Joseph R.
Naylor, Wheeling; John f. Nor
maud, Huntington; Roy Yoke,
Weston; Charles E. Hodges, Nor
gantown, and Anthony w. Smith,
Jr., Pittsburgh.
From the rounds Of applause
that, greeted the announcements
of the candidates, 1t was apparent
that the Wheeling Rotarian and
the Pennsylvania man were the
favorite candidates. The candi-
dates were presented to the as
sembled delegates at the noon
luncheon session. Seven Fairmont
delegatespwere registered at the
convention today. At this morn
!ng's business session, after two
hours heated debate, a recommen-
dation Of. a. special committee that
the present sixth Rotary district
be divided into two districts with
the Pennsylyania-West Virginia
boundary as the dividing line was
rejected by. the conference. This
was then made unanimous.
The dividing Of the district was
bitterly opposed by the West yir-
glnian delegations. The big So
cial event Of the convention was q
dinner and reception last night
attended, by more than a thousand
Rotarians and thei5 wives. This
was the most successful event in
the annals o fthe district:

The fact that the time limit

as reason for not accepting that
Invitation, and at meeting two

they postponed the question, de-
claring that unsettled questions In
the industry at that time made It
unwise then to settle on wages.
At a meeting Monday, the direc-
tors appointed a committee which
spent! two days in preparing a
scale. This was presented to the
directors today and on II they;
made their recommendations to
the members OF the association.
