Editorial Comment
A Military Trail?
(Thc Dickinson Press)

Designation Of the National Parks highway 4
pected in the future according to information
coming from state highway engineers who claim to
be in close touch with the situation.
If this is made effective it will mean that steps
will be taken Immediately to improve this trans
continental route. Within the next few years it
will be paved in its entirety.
That the above report is than idle talk seems
to be borne out by the fact that state highway engi
neers along the route working with federal cngi-
neers to- shorten the road wherever possible with
view to making the final survey permanent
AS if to further strengthen the report it is said
ing new route through the Badlands from Belfeld
to- Medora which would north of the Northern
Pacific tracks for the entire distance, straghtaway
and at angles instead of improving the winding trail
to the south Of the tracks from Belfield on.
If the National Parks highway is to be designated
as military trail it will mean much to the towns
and cities along the route and especially here in
western North Dakota.
There are mighty few miles Of good road between
Mandan and Beach and instead of improving it the
counties traversed are permitting the highway to
become every year. Heavy traffic has made
almost every foot of it choppy and attempt is
made to keep it in shape. We trust that for the
sake of the people who live along the National Parks
highway and support it that the road will be desig
mated as military trail, for that is the only way
that it will be decenty maintained.

prevalent everywhere. Too many fail to realize
that such service is duty to society and capable
jures are as necessary to law enforcement as COM
petent judges and prosecutors
Such a situation cannot be corrected until every
community is aroused to its responsibility in the
matter of jury duty. Prevalence of crime will
continue long citizens shirk such important
obligation Mr.. Pecora finds that the average jury
fails to grasp clearly that he owes society a
conscientious discharge Of his duty. This lodging
Of duty to the state, he finds results in jurcs of
small calbrc and the fate of the criminal too often
is in the hands Of men not qualified to weigh the
evidence properly. They permit sympathy and
sentimentality to determine the verdict.
Jury service is probably the highest duty Of a
citizen except that Of military service. When it is
regarded in such light there will not be so many
miscarriages of justice.

Work Is Important. But 1t Isn't All

William NJ. Wood says a writer, in the New York
Evening World killed himself because he could not
stand it to be idle.
According to this writer the wealthy founder of
the American WOODEN Company could have borne
the grief and disappointment which accompanied
his declining years if he had been able to plunge
into work as he used to do. Deprived Of this SOL
ace, the writer thinks, Wood found life too great
burden to be carried any longer and sent bullet
through his brain.
Wood was active throughout his life--trcmen-
dously So He was the very aptthcosis of the Amer
lean tradition of busting, hurrying business ex-
ccutive Born poor boy, he developed tremendous
company, piled up a huge fortune-and then found
at the very last that it was hardly worth it,
how.
Whether the writer who discussed his suicide in
the New York paper gagged his motives correctly
it is impossible to say Of course. But whether he
was right or wrong the whole story serves to point
out once more the tragedy that is bound to come,
some Tine if we make our daily work an end rather
than a means to an end.
1t is good to be able to find work in which one can
lose oneself giving all the energy and force has
without stopping to think where it is leading But
it has it's dangers.
Sooner later. unless one dies in middle age,
comes the day when the human machine cannot
stand up under the strain. Then the old job, NJ
matter how much enjoyed it, has to be given
up. And if one has not some inner resources
something to make life sweet wholly apart from,
wOrk-thcrc is tragedy.
Work hard and earnestly, yes. But never forget
that there is a little bit more to life than eating
and sleeping and toiliny There arc so many things
enjoy, to make life happy and full; don't fail to
find out about them while there is time.
What are they? Little things-but big things,
nevertheless. The treasures Of literature and art
the fine joys Of human friendships and relation
ships, the feeling Of harmony with world that
despite it's woes is still good, kindly world these
! things can make up for dleness when one has quit
/ the harness.
| If your life has no interest fer you outside OF
your work-lcok out. You are heading toward q
very unhappy old age.

Senatorial Candidates
(Grand Forks Herald)

Announcement made Wednesday by J.. b. Hanna
that he will permit his name TO be presented to the
Republican state convention candidate for en-
dorsement for the United States senate will occa
sion surprise, it has been taken for granted
for many months past that Mr.. Hanna was can
didate for the toga. With Mr. Nestos' announce
ment Of his own candidacy, made several days ago,
the contest for the Republican convention endorse
ment is fairly joined between these two.
It must be borne in mind, however that the an.
nouncement of these gentlemens candidacy does
not bar the Republican convention from the consd-
Grafton Of other possible candidates fer the SEN
atorship. On the CONTRARY it is essential that the
situstion be carefully canyassed and all possibili-
ties be given careful consideration before the con-
vention's endorsement is conferred.
The fact that both Mr.. Hanna and Mr.. Nestos
have announced their willingness to give full and
loyal support to the choice of the convention III
