Washington, Sept. 8O.-n the Re-
publicans lose the election to the
Democrats next November it's their
own fault.
The Democratic women, who are
infinitely more active in promoting
the party's welfare than Democratic
men. are hopping mad ct the COP.
since its government officials inter-
fered with the slogan contest Of the
Democratic National Women's club.
The ladies' held . local contest

slogan for next year, realizing that
q good slogan goes . long way
whether it means anything or not.
The winning yell was Eight years

Then someone thought it would be
Z dandy idea to have . national con-
test. After al, the Main street. slo-
gan was q little cumbersome and
might not appeal to the city peo-
pie. So notice Of the big contest was
sent to Democrats over the country,
and, because someone had conceived
bright idea regarding the clubs
deficit, . 81 entry fee was stipulated.
Then the postoffice department
butted in and announced that this
looked like q lottery and that some.
one would be prosecuted II such
plans were carried through. The
postoffice wouldn't prosecute, of
course, unless the ladies refused to
listen to reason and withdraw that
about the 81 fee.
New notices were sent out and the
contest is now open to all corners.

Mexico is doing laudable thing BY prepar-
ing for the construction Of 1900 additional
rural schools to reduce illiteracy among Indians
and peasants.
1t has almost been a byword when one
thinks Of Mexico to recall the appalling t
eracy of the great majority of the people, The
actual figures seem incredible when they are
compared to the total illiteracy Of the United
States or Of the average foreign country.
In many districts where schools will be
opened the Indians speak only Indian tongues
often to the exclusion of Spanish. This makes
for clannish living and prejudice against the
customs Of the white man. In measure. it
has contributed to the misgoyernment of the
country which characterized the incunlbency of
administrations before that of President Gales
There can be little advancement, little patriot
ism where the people are so set apart by bar
riers Of race and tongue
Already, dnder President Gales, the litter
acy rate has been cut 40 per cent. The open
ing of the new schools vii. do much to bring to
Mexico unity Of purpose and strong ma
tionalistic feeling, the two things which a
country must have if it is to hold place among
the worlds important nations.

Making the World Safe For Gasoline

Day before yesterday we had our age of coal.
Today we have our age of gasoline. Our auto
mobiles, our airplanes and, in increasing de-
gree, our battleships and our mercantile ships
are being run By gasoline engines or oil burn
ers.
The only black smudge in the picture was
the fear Of expert biologists that sooner or
later the worlds supply of gasoline would be
exhausted. But clever German chemists are
reported to have come to the rescue. The great
German chemical trust claims it has perfected
method Of securing synthetic petrol by lique-
flying coal.
The petrol is said to be as good as the
natural article. Moreover it can be produced
speedily and cheaply. It is claimed that this
one concern working in Germany alone can
produce 100000 tons Of synthetic gasoline per
annum.
AS the worlds coal supply is almost unlim-
ted it looks as if the globe has at last been
made safe for gasoline.

given evidence which, he claims, proves fairly
conclusivey that Germany was to blame.
But the question is one which will never be
settled by argument. 1t is too soon to decide
whether the blame must rest on Germany
shoulders. That will be question to be de-
cidcd possibly SO or Is years from now. when
historians have had an opportunity through
their distance from the whole thing, to make
fair and just decisions.
1t is better for France and Germany to for
get the past and devote themselves to the up
building of their countries and the creation of
friendly relations between them. Arguing
about who was to blame for the war will not
help advance France or Germany. Fostering
of sensible trade relations and aggressive cam
paigns for foreign trade are the things of i'm
mediate concern

Editorial Comment
Small Nations in the League
New York WORLDLY

The election of Canada, Cuba and Finland
to temperament membership in the council of
the league of nations for three-year term
will be received in the United States with ap-
prevail By this choice the North American
continent is for the first time represented.
Latin American representation is continued
unchanged, Cuba replacing Salvador. The
small nations generally, the new succession
states specifically, have undminished represen-
tation on the council. The failure to continue
Belgium as one Of the nonpermanent council
members was due to the feeling that Belgium,
though a small patton, sat as practically a
proxy for France.
That this result follows and confirms some.
thing like the revolt of smallnations bloc in
satisfaction. In spite of chauvinism in few
cases, the small nations generally look to the
league as their protection against aggression
and processes of peace. No dreams of terri
aspirations of Denmark, of Finland, of Swe.
as a policy, can have no more sincere sup.
porters than the small nations
Meeting in an atmosphere of disusionment
and depression, this session of the league as
sembly testifies once more to the invincible
power of an ideal. Stresemann gave the meet
ing its keynote in pledging Germany to arbi-
traton. BRAND continued the good work by
the eloquence of his reply and comment. The
small nations have given the meeting serious
value. The very constitution of the council
with Germany member is better fitted for
its work than it was in the beginning.

There are numerous disturbances

type occur in Jewish people and in

In these cases there is no hardening

The patients concerned are usual

with Burgers disease are usually

Comfort Dividends of Good Roads
(Minneapolis Tribul

The editor Of the Sleepy Eye (Minn.) Her
ald-Dispatch passes along snappy idea when
he says:
"Many man has paid an extra hundred for
an easier riding car who would crab for six
months if the legislature made him pay SIS
more per year in gas tax that would enable the
highway department to give him such easy rid
ing roads that 1916 model would travel it
without jar or CULVER"
If Jack should read these words and say to
Bill: isn't that the truth?" we have no
trouble imagining Bill answering: ''Tll tell
the world it's the truth" And it is the truth
as to many a man.
Owners of automobiles are generous. to them
selves in seeing that there are snubbers, or
stabilizers, or baancers, or spacious springs, or
all four, on their cars as servitors to their ease
and comfort as they ride along the roads. All
these things enter into the original cost or sub
sequent equipment cost of motor cars, as they
should. The price paid for any one Of them
is more than the difference in yearly cost of
operating the average car would be if the tax
on gasoline were raised from cents to cents /;
and it is more than the additional amount the
average citizen would pay in taxes if there were
a bond issue of $40, 100000 for road improve
ment, and if the issue were taken care of
through general taxation. It wouldn't be TAX
en- care of that way. The financing would be
done out OF the state trunk highway fund OBJ
tanned from the gasoline levy and from license
charges.
The up-to-date contrivances used on automo-
biles to make more comfortable riding are good
and fine, but they have their marked limita-
tons when it comes to ease the going on rough
roads. A first rate paved road is snubbey,
stabillzer, balancer, and spacious spring all in
one, and this all-in-one does the work II
months Of the year, which is all that anybody
can ask. A first rate paved road is worth
however. lot more than what it yields in COM
Portable riding. The additional worth is meas
urable in the lessening of venicular wear and
tear, and in savings of time, gasoline and tire
mileage.
10 revert to the original theme about COM
fort, we can get more OF It for less money
through the medium Of paved roads than IN
any other way, and get it more consistently
1t Is more or less natural for men to "crab."
but grabbing is not to be excused unless It has
some basis Of common sense, and some virtue

Blacksmiths? Certainly

Has the blacksmith gone with the hoop skirt,
he hair rat and other decadent symbols of a
past day? He has not. There are 10000 black
smiths in the United States today
There are thousands Of horses on the farms
and thousands more in cities and towns where
the nature of certain jobs calls for horses

Children for generations have stood at the

Number of Prisoners
in N. ID. Penitentiary
Increases From 1923

The number of admissions to the
North Dakota state prison has in
creased more rapidly than the gener-
81 population, according to figures
given out today by the United States
department Of commerce.
While in 1923, there were 1873
prisoners for every 100000 people
in the state, in 1927, there are 1872
prisoners for every 100000. The
prison enrolment, however, shows
only a slight increase for January l,
1927, over January l, 1926. There
were 304 prisoners January l, 1926,
and 300 on January l, 1927. In 1923,
there were "A prisoners.
It is pointed out by the depart
ment Of commerce that where state
shows an increase in the number of
commitments, such increase may
represent an increase in the severity
Of the penalties imposed by the local
courts or in the percentage of Of
tenders who are arrested and inn
prisoned, rather than an increase in
crime.
