tourists, garage owners, hotel men
and others cooperate in systematic
manner to lay before the tourists the
advantages Of North Dakota, to add
a personal touch which will make the
tourist feel there is unusual hospi-'
tality in this state.
The idea is to send the tourist back
home booster not only for the Ma
tional Parks Highway-to tell his
neighbors of the unusual service in
hotels, garages and tourist camps
but to correct false impressions of
North Dakota and to point out the
economic possibilities Of the state.

tee he had received confirmation
from the New York office of Will
II. Hays that Hays would testify

Sinclair helped wipe out the Re-
publican national committee def
cit after the 1920 campaign. Vivian
said such story was told to lin
by Joseph O'Neill. Hays publicity

| Washington, Mar. 24.-Carmi A..
Thompson of Cleveland, manager of
President Coolidge's campaign in
Ohio, was called as the first witness
today innthe oil inquiry.
In ts~examination of the witness
the committee turned again to stories
of an "oil deal at the Chicago con-
ventlon which nominated Harding.
Meantime preparations were compile
ted to leave to the courts the refusal
of Harry f. Sinclair to testify fur
! ther.
Before the questioning of Thomp-
son began there was brief excur-
sion into the matter of Sinclair's
contribution to the Republican ma
tlonal committee to help make up
the deficit resulting from the 1920
campaign.
Senator Spencer, Republican, Mis-
souri,, remarked that he had noticed
that a subpoena was out for Fred
w. upham, the Republican national
treasurer.
i now ask that we subpoena the
chairman and secretary of the Dem
ocratic national committees" said
Spencer. II notice Mr. E. L. Doheny
testified he gave $4,000 to the Dem
ocratic national committee while it's
records show as published only S.
600 from himJ Since we are going
INTO these matters we ought to get
both sides.
Senator Walsh, Democrat, Montana,
suggested that the Republican funds
mad been investigated only so far as
they were involved in the oil leascr
and Senator Dill, Democrat. Wash
ington, said the Republican admins
tration had been elected and this
made the inquiry into Republican
funds pertinent.
Defer Decision
At the suggestion of Senator Walsh
the committee deferred a decision
and began the questioning of Thomp-
son, who was at the Chicago conyen-
tlon as Harding supporter. The
witness said he did not hear Jake
Hamon, oil operator, and Republican
national committeeman for Oklahoma
make a proposition Of any kind to
Senator Harding or his associates for
the delivery of the Oklahoma dele
CATION. He certainly made no such
proposition to ME, he added.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

We have received a communication
from that able newspaper correspon'
dent VIM. Anthony Aery, in which he
announced that Hampton Institute at
it's fifty-seventh commencement, con-
ferred degrees. We live to learn, but
we were not aware that an institute
with principal and not president
could rightfully confer degrees, even
though the course established embrac
ed subjects, the mastery Of which
would prepare a student and mako
him entitled to such a degree.
To speak plainly, we have always re-
garded the comforting Of valid degrees
to be the duty of college or univers
ity Hampton Institute and Tuskegee
Institute were founded to deal with
lower education for the average color

been held down to accomplish this Dur
pose. We take it then that DR.. James
E. Gregg is in favor of giving color,

which he seems capable and not to

A STRONG TICKET.

1t is a generally accepted fact that
the Republican National Convention
at Cleveland named a strong ticket.
Much lcriticism has been voiced rela.
tive to the radical policy pursued vita
reference to party regularity and the
dire consequences, which might follow
such action. We take it that President
Coolidge has reached point where
patience has ceased to be virtue.
Party ties and party platforms have
been tabooed and abandoned, Men get
nominated as Republicans, wear the
livery of that organization and then re
fuse to be hound by the action of the
majority of the party with which they
are affiliated.
If the principles CT party are antag
onistic to fundamental principles, in
which a member of the party believes,
the member of the party should sever
his connections with the organization
land act either as an Independent or join
some other party that believes in the
policies and the principles, which he
advocates When the La Toilette group
remained in the Republican National
| Convention until its close, that La Fol
lette group was bound by the actions
of the convention and stand pledged to
support the nominees named by that
body.
We cannot see any other honorable
way to deal with the situation. The La
Toilette members could have retired
upon the adoption Of the platform. 1t
q an evident fact that the Republican
nominees will have no walk over
this year. 1t will require hard, syste'
matte work, with none but the faithful
on guard 1t is related that during the
Civil War, at the Battle of the Crater
at Petersburg. Va. conditions became
almost unbearable and the Confeder'
ates were on the verge of surrendering
Gen. William Malone heard Of it and
sent word down the line, Boys, the
yanks are worse off than we are"
This gave the exhausted Confederates
renewed hope and they held out and
won that particular contest. Relative to
disafections inside Of the Republican
camp, the same ringing words are az
plicable. The Democrats are hopeless
ly divided and Chief Butler has but to
repeat the words of that brainy Confed
crate general, "Soys, the Democrat
are worse off than we are"

At II A. M. Dr. Hatcher, having re-

At 3:3e P. M. the flower and cream

thank the ladies from all the churches
who helped us to make this occasion a
success.

A REMARKABLE TRIBUTE.

The Richmond, Va, Newsletter
published a rather remarkable tribute
recently to the retiring Director OF
Public Works, Allen j. Saville. The
first inquiry that came into our mind
was as to whether the appraisal of tn
achievements Of this able official was
correct, and if correct, why was it
that some practical effort was not
made to retain his services for the
city? g
No one who has impartially and with
out prejudice Of any kind observed
the improvement in conditions in this
locality and the outlying district will
hesitate to answer the inquiry in the
affirmative. The trouble is that the
public is not willing to pay the price
and officials who make sacrifices -
produce the best results seldom re-
ceive the recognition to which they
are entitled.
We believe chat Director Saville will
find that in making the change, 'le
and his associates will profit finan.
cially, while the city of Richmond will
for a time at least suffer as the result
of the loss of the efficiency which
characterized mis- Department.. A new
official of transcendent ability may in
time establish the same efficiency, but
during the period of probation, this
community will be the loser.
