Mr.. LEMKE AS A A

If William Lemke is elected governor of North
Dakota he will be in supreme control Of the state
industries. He will be one Of the three members
of the industrial commission which manages these
industries with no limitation on their actions except
the governors power Of veto which would be in Mr..
Lemke's own hands. To all intents and purposes
therefore his power would be absolute.
In connection with Mr.. Lemke's. candidacy
therefore 1T may be proper to mention that he has
already been in complete control of what the farm
ers were promised would be one of the big in
dustries Of the state. This was the Consumers
United Stores Co., in which Mr.. Lemke owned 70
per cent of the stock and was therefore in a position
of absolute authority.
The result of Mr.. Lemke's management. or
lack of management, in that enterprise was that the
farmer certificate buyers lost a million dollars or
SO, and had nothing but experience to show for the
sums they had sunk therein. This would hardly
seem to be a very high tribute to Mr.. Lemke's
ability as a manager of large enterprises.
1t must be borne in mind, however. that the
real object of the Consumers United Stores Co.
was very evidently not to save money for the farm
ers who invested in the enterprise but to get their
money to boost the political fortunes of Mr.. Lemke
and his close associates. From this point of view
the enterprise was a great success, and a cool mil
lion or SO was secured for this purpose.
So if Mr.. Lemke is elected governor there can
be little doubt that he will be highly successful in
applying the state funds in the same way. and in
fact the record of the last league administration and
the relations of the Bank of North Dakota with the
Scandinavian-American bank of Fargo show that
he has already demonstrated real ability along that
line.
The only trouble is that some of the people of
the state seem to think that money paid by the
people in taxes should be used for the purposes
for which those taxes are levied and not simply to
furnish a campaign fund for Mr.. Lemke and his
friends. And the people who take this view of the
proper uses of public funds are not likely to vote
for Mr.. Lemke.

THE LABORER AND HIS lob,

When President Roosevelt told Goethals to
build the Panama canal it was understood that the
nation wanted the work. done not only we'll, but
quickly. Several false starts had been made, and
people were getting weary of repeated postpone
ments. There were laso International reasons about
which the general public knew little and about
which the president knew agreat deal, which made
rapid action exceedingly desirable.
Goethals took the job, went at it and finished
it in less time than anyone would have believed it
possible to perform that amount of work. In per-
forming the task he had at his command the best
scientific knowledge and the best skilled labor in
the country. In addition to that. he had a vast
quantity of the kind Of labor commonly termed
unskilled.
There was a lot of dirt to be moved, and it
had to be moved by plain digging. There were
steam cranes and scoops, and all that sort of thing.
but in addition there were thousands of ordinary
shovels manipulated by the unaided hands of men.
Some of the men knew how to handle shovels be-
tore they tackled that job; some of them did not,
Before the work was completed those men had
become experts. They constituted the finest lot of
shovelers that the world has ever seen. Instead of
drudges, laboring at a distasteful task, they had be-
come artists who found actual Joy in their work.
tor they had come to recognize themselves as parts
of a great constructive enterprise, and each man
was proud of doing his own share of the work as
fast and as well as it could be done.
Manual labor is not all ~drudgery. Anyone
who thinks it is should watch a paving crew at
work. The work is hard and heavy. It does not
look inviting. But as the work is observed il be-
comes evident that there is in it as thorough team
work as is to be found on the football field. Each
man has his appointed place, and each seems to
feel that the progress of the work depends on his
keeping up his end. There is a spirit which never
Hays, and which causes every man to take pride
in 4 good days work well done. Quitting time is
welcome, but when it comes there is double salts
faction to every man on the job If he can look back
and say,S Well. that's pretty good for one day"

it may be said that certainly one-ffth and possibly
of our people are today economically

THAT the machinery and capital which is idle

be inferred from the fact that the foreign trade Of

per cent of the trade of 1913 A further confrma-
tion is to be found in the estimate of the national
income. which, in the same values, is for 1920 only
SO per cent of that of 1913. The full force of these
figures can only be appreciated if it is
that since 1913 the population has increased by
about four millions, and that the agricultural area
available to support it has shrunk by the acreage

The most impressive thing about all this is that

eating up it's substance, and that an important per-
centage of its population is subsisting lin part on
the rapidly diminis hing accumulations of former
years, and in part on the earnings of those who are
remuneratively employed. No nation can stand
such a drain very long. How long can Great
Britain stand it?

INVADING PRIVATE PROPERTY,

Mrs. Bess Wilson, editor of the Redwood
Gazette, very properly censures town people who
drive through country districts and raid the farmer
of his tame and wild fruit and other products.
Everything that grows on a farmers farm belongs
to that farmer is the way the Gazette put it. "To
take even wild fruit without his permission is as
much a misdeneanor as to take his corn, potatoes
or chickens" HuT
There is often criticism of what is termed the
|boorish attitude of owners of woodland in driving
from their premises strangers intent on picnicking
|or on gathering wild fruit. Possibly some of these
owners are lacking in the true spirit of hospitality,
as it is quite possible to hold a picnic without doing
injury to property, and most of the wild fruit that
grows goes to waste for lack of pickers. But it is
unfortunately true that visitors to the wooded lands
or other people are so reckless and destructive in
their actions that it is easy to understand the at
titude of the owner in b%anishing all strangers with
out warning and in condemning them all to the
neither regions without benefit of clergy.
Picnic parties litter up the landscape with dis
carded papers, packages and garbage. Fruit pick
es demolish trees without even giving thought to
the fact that they may wish to gather fruit there
another year, to say nothing of the rights of the
owner.
Former Governor Lowden of Illinois, has re-
Gently made himself unpopular with some residents
of the vicinity by closing the entrances to his es-
tate near Oregon, Illinois. Mr.. Lowden has a
splendid piece of property there, and he has been
at considerable pains and expense to beautify it.
Tie mas admitted the general pubic to the premises,
and great numbers of people have enjoyed picnics
there. But there were enough reckless and incon-
|siderate ones to spoil the whole thing. They left
camp fires burning. They scattered rubbish. They
entered the private gardens, tore up Towering
plants by the roots and %trampled others under foot.
Some of them even camped on the porch of the
residence and amused themselves by looking in
through the windows. Mr.. Lowden concluded that
he or the general public must move out. He
fixed up his fences and closed his gates, depriving
a good many people of innocent pleasure, and him
self Of the satisfaction of knowing that others were
enjoying the things that he had provided. What
else could he have done?

DIRECT RESULT OR COINCIDENCE?

More than two years ago an eastern magazine
published what was represented to be a copy Of a
letter of instructions sent by the Boil
shevist government at Moscow to it's agents abroad.
Some of the instructions were as follows:
The work of Bolshevist organizations in
foreign countries is regulated as follows:
l. In the domain of international rela-
tons.
(a) Assist all chauvinistic measures and
foster all International discords.
~ Stir up agitation that may serve to
bring on industrial conflict.
(c) Try to assassinate the representa-
tives of foreign countries.
2. In the domain of internal politics.
(a) Compromise by every possible means
the influential men of the country; attack
people in office; stir up anti-governmental
agitation.
% Instigate general and particular
strikes injure machinery and boilers in fac
tories; spread propaganda literature.
8. In the economic sphere;
(a) Induce and sustain railroad strikes;
destroy bridges and tracks; do everything pos
sible to disorganize transport.
1t would be absurd to say that all the industrial
of recent months are to be attributed to
those instructions. Strikes have occurred before,
there has never been an important strike with
out disorder. The authority of the instructions
from which the above are taken was questioned. It
is impossible either to verify the instructions or to
trace their influence, supposing the copy to be gen
uine. But the fact remains that the instructions are
consistent with what is known Of the whole
attitude Of the radical group in central Europe, that
Of the Soviet group have acted in Amer
lea as propagandists for the dissemination of doc
trines of which acts Of lawlessness are the legitimate
outcome, and that there exists in this country an 'ele-
ready to receive and act on such doctrines
and that out of the spread Of this propaganda acts
of violence come. There is more than, coincidence
in the similarity Of Bolshevik doctrine and lawless-
ness in America
