GRAND FORKS AND THE TICKET,

The slaughtering of the independent candidate
tor senator in his home town has aroused a feeling
OF resentment in a good many other sections of the
state. That feeling is quite natural and easy to
understand. And, inevitably, the. facts are being
distorted through misunderstanding, aid Grand
Forks is being loosely and inaccuratefy charged with
knitting the Independent ticket. That general accu-
sation contains at least the implication that there
was a lack, OF good faith on the part Of those locally
iy charge of the work of the independent organiza-
ton.
Everyone at all familiar with the facts knows
that there is not the slightest basis for such a charge.
Grand Forks, city and county, rolled up a ~magnifc-
ent majority for Governor Nestos. The local vote
cast for the other candidates, except for senator,
compares with the local vote for governor just about
as the state vote for those candidates compares With
the state vote for governor. An inspection of the
actual fguresshows that there is a uniformity
throughout the list from which there are only slight
Elevations. Grand Forks stands unnloved from its
position right up at the front of the Independent
column.
The adverse vote OH the senatorship in Grand
Forks city was due to a combination Of factors, all
OF them local in character, chief among them being
the introduction in a deliberate and organized way,
OF issues which have no place in a political cam
|paign. For this The Herald Offers no excuse, and
suggests nothing in extenuatior. That such a move
lnent was in progress has been a matter of common
knowledge for many weeks. The Herald has pro-.
tested against it, and it ~reiterates its protest now
that the election is over.
1t is only fair to those who have been identified
with the local work of the Independent Organization
to say that they have worked energetically and in,
absolute good faith, for the success Of Mr.. O'Connor
as we'll as for that of the other independent. candi-
dates. Knowing Of the movement against O'Coiai-
nor on entirely unjustifable grounds, they concen-
trated much ofStheir work on his campaign. That
the unworthy movement was too strong for them to
overcome was no fault Of theirs, and the result is
no discredit to them. It. is to be hoped that our
friends throughout the state may be able to see the
facts with sufficient clearness not to include in their
condemnation men against whom no accusation can
rightfully be brought. t. r.

AN R TREMOR.

Man has adjusted himself to those terrestrial
phenomena which long experience has taught him
to regard as regular and normal. The movement OF
the tides, the succession Of the seasons, and the al
formation of sunshine and rain, calm and wind, have
}become commonplace TO him, and he builds his
lstructures and goes upon his journeys in the conf
Edence that he has provided adequately against dis
Iaster. Then, from some cause not understood,
there is a departure from the normal, and the pow
ers of nature are exhibited in unusual combination
land with terrifying force, and all the works of man
shrink to nothingness.
Along the western coast of South America
There has just been one of those tremendous upheav-
lals which caused the earth to shake and the waters
to move with destructive force. A, thousand lives
have been snuffed out, and many thousands are rem
ldered homeless. And yet this CONFUSION of nature,
so awe-inspiring, and so fatal to thousands, has been
merely a slight readjustment of portions of the
earth's crust, SO Insignificant as to leave only scarce
|ly perceptible traces, and affecting in no particular
the general form or movement of the planet.
When we think of the devastation wrought by
ia movement SO slight in comparison with the earth's
mass, we gain, in comparison, some slight concep-
ttion of the bewildering chaos that must have attend
led the settling of the earth into the form in which
rive know it, the upheaval of mountains the grind
ling force of continents of ice, with great glaciers
that left their burrows for us to explore the raising
lof ocean beds to become great plains or mountain
tops the submerging of forests and back of all that
the movements Of the fiery, molten mass, discharg-
ing tongues of fame into space.
4 tits not until we are reminded by some depar-
ture o~fnature from its normal course that we appre-
'ciate how delicate is the balance which makes it
possible for us to exist. In the matter of tempera-
ture alone, a variation Of a few degrees from the
narrow range to which we are accustomed would
bring death to all Of us. The force which was used
in the shaping Of our smallest hill OF, shallowest val
ley would bring all our edi6ces to ruins. A few
minutes in the volcanic gases which once enveloped
the earth would destroy every vestige of life on the
planet. Yet we live, and work, and feel secure.

The British were disappointed when the United

There was an assumption on their part that in the
recent election the American voters would pass

the tariff had some influence on the election. But
that influence was of a general character. That the

opportunity to be actually informed as to the issues

average American is more interested in the fate of
Lloyd George, Britain's most picturesque person
ality, than in any or all Of the issues of British poll
tics. \

THE GRAIN GRADING LAW.

The passage of the grain grading law submitted
to the voters of the state under initiative provisions
illustrates one of the dangers of that system of legis-
lation. Only a small vote was cast on the proposal,
most Of the voters ignoring it altogether. There
had been no general discussion of it, and it is safe
TO say that not ten per cent of those who voted for
1t knew anything about its provisions. The bill was
lprepared under the direction of certain of the Nom
partisan league leaders, and the machinery of the
league was used for the purpose of obtaining sigma
lures to the petition for its submission. In spite Of
instructions from league headquarters to all league
members to vote for the bill, only a few Of them
complied, and on the part of the Independents, the
matter went by default. Yet the bill passed in that
manner becomes one of the effective laws of the
state unless and until the courts determine that it is
insconflict with state or federal constitutions.
} The former state grain grading law was de-
sclared by the federal supreme court to be'in conflict
with the provisions Of avalid federallaw, and there
fore imperative. Whether or. not this bill shall
suffer the same fate remains to be seen. 1t is quite
.lcertain that in SO far as its provisions are repeti-
tions ofsthe provisions OF the former law which were
declared invalid, this one also will be declared void.
notwithstanding an impression to the contrary
which seems to prevail in some quarters, the defects
finone law are not curedby passing another law just
it.
The new law contains provisions which, even if
constitutional, are highly objectionable in that they
hpHpvide for the creation of a new official BODY,
ION the number Of employees whom it may engage or
on the amount Of money which it may spend. That
part Of the law, of course, is not subject to review
III the federal courts. If appealed to on this point
the decision of those courts would be, undoubtedly,
that if the state Of North Dakota wishes to install
alot of irresponsible officials, and tosAspend its mon
sy foolishly, that is its own business.

THE NEW MANAGER

announcement IS made of the appointment of
g.. E.EAustin as general manager of the state mill
and elevator business at Grand Forks. Mr.. Austin
has had a wide experience in the management of
both elevators and mills IN this country and in Can
ada. lie has for some time been connected with
large milling interests at Medicine Hat, Alberta. and
he will assume management of the North Dakota
business as soon as~he can close up his work in the
Canadian city.
AS the time approached when it would be neccs-
|sary to install men in the management of the great
plant here, the state industrial commission
a search for men who would measure up
TO the requirements of the situation. Three; i'm
executives were to be chosen, one to super
intend the work of the elevator, one to take personal
charge of the mill, and one to assume general charge
lot the entire combined enterprise. The managers
lot the mill and the elevator" have been chosen, and
have been on the job for some time, supervising the
installation of the machinery and the completion of
construction work, and, more recently, the actual
operation Of those units of the plant where the
handling of grain and the manufacture of -four have
begun. The men chosen are believed, after thorough
investigation, to be thoroughly capable and suited
IN every way for the work:
The selection of a general manager has consurn-
ed. more time. In this work as in that of choosing
the mill and elevator managers, the commission has
been assisted by a committee of the Grand Forks
Commercial club, and both the commission and the
local committee have agreed on the selection Of Mr..
Austin as the@best that could be made.
lhe considerations which apply to the separate
department heads apply with even greater force to
the general manager. The work which he Will have
to perform WillEdernand. the very best effort of an
earnest and competent business man. 1t will be
immensely more difficult than the management Of
Ia private business Of like size because Of the ten
|dency inherent in all publicly owned enterprises to
inject into them political factors from which the
private enterprise is free. The task of the manager
of q private business is to cenduct It honorabty and
to make It pay. The manager Of q publicly owned
