COLUMBUS DAY
Edited by the Young
A Page for Workers

On October r. 1892 Christopher Columbus an
Italian adventurer who set out to find new route
to the West Indies, discovered America He claimed
this country for Spain because he was financed by
that country. This accidental discovery of America
came about when Constantinope was captured by the
Mohammedans CTurks) who thus cut off trade with
the East The merchants who were interested in
this trade were forced to seek new routes. Spain
being great sea-going nation at that time was
especially interested and therefore backed Chris
topher Columbus
Since the discovery of America, the workers and
farmers of this country have suffered untold hard
ships in making it of the richest and strongest
powers in the world. But have the workers and
farmers profited by this? No, only those who live
on the sweat and toll of the workers are better off
For the workers and poor farmers there is only
misery and want For the children of the workers
there is poverty and unhappiness While for the
rich and their children there is luxury and ideness
Only In Soviet Russia, where there is a workers
and farmers government, the workers and their
children happy. For there they are their own BOSSES
The bosses who derive benefits from this country
wish this system to exist forever. They want the
workers and their children be satisfied with things
as they are. Therefore in the schools they use this
holiday to instil patriotism in the hearts and minds
of workers children We must, however fight
against all this. We must continue spreading the
truth about Soviet Russia among all workers chill
dren We must get all workers children to. Join the
Young Pioneers of America and help make our gov
eminent workers and farmers government like
the Soviet Union

LET'S FIGHT ON
By SOL GROBSMITH

Lets Fight On" our leader has said
Let's fight on till the capitalists are dead,
The capitalists will not rule US forever,
To fight and win we must endeavor.
Our binding chains will be torn apart,
AS blood sucking capitalists have torn our heart
After that, this country will be free.
Free free for you and me.

That Ware Case

The case Of Senator William s. Ware, which
caused such a hullabaloo in Pennsylvania and otheg
parts of the east a few months ago, seems to be
degenerating into q comic opera.
An investigation Of the case was started by the
United States senator some months ago, starting
out with q bang and ending with rather weak
fizzle. The committee is still in existence but re-
cent events would lead one to believe it doesn't
much care what happens to Mr.. Ware.
just the other day came an instance of this.
There has been protracted argument over whether
the state Of Pennsylvania should turn the bal
lot boxes Of the election in which Ware ran to the
committee. Loud demands made for them.
Now comes reply from the district judges in
Pennsylvania. Two Of them want the ballots i'm
pounded Two others want to know if they'll get
the boxes back and who will pay for them if they
don't. Two more say they wouldn't consider it un-
til they received formal demand from the senate.
So the thing stands now, and in all probability
SO it will stand for long time. There was un-
doubtedly corruption in the Pennsylvania election,
but now that the excitement has died down and
members of the investigating committee longer
get themselves mentioned prominently in the news
papers, they seem to be getting tired Of the PROBE
And the dilatoriousness Of the Pennsylvania judges
is only helping to drag the matter out and make it
cost still more money.

Friends Of Frank o. Lowden have already begun
to count his delegates at the next Republican ma
tional convention. All told. this early in the game
they believe the former Illinois governor and cham
pion of farm relief has Is or 16 states already as
good as won. with delegate strength of around
$40 votes
North Dakota is among those states listed as
likely to swing to Lowden. Also included in the list
are South Dakota, Minnesota. Wisconsin, Iowa. Kan.
sas Nebraska. Missouri. Montana, Utah. Washing
ton and Oregon.
Michigan and Indiana also are likely they point
out
Thus opens the season for political predictions.
1t is almost impossible. past experience has
shown, to forecast which man will swing certain
groups of states. Regardless of Lowden's personal
ability it seems little early to start predicting
where his "vest-pocket" votes will come from.
But they will all be doing it soon. North Dako'
ia will have the pleasurable feeling. along with
other states, of being claimed by most any Republ-
can or Democratic candidate who comes along. And
like other states, North Dakota will decide who it
wants in November, 1928, and not in August. 1927

George Pruitt had obtained permits
sion from his father, president 81 the
largest wholesale grocery company in
the city, to leave his work at four
o'clock two afternoons week, so that
he might have two hours Of bright
light before dinner for working on
the picture of Faith and Cherry's
baby. But so keen was his enthus-
iasm for this first work he had at
tempted since giving mp his art en-
reer in New York that he appeared on
Friday, with paints, palette. easel and

was glad to see him. The pAtient.
wistful, but undermining alteration
in his small black eyes was balm to
her grief-heavy heart. She had not
slept all night after that amazing
passage between her sister and her
husband. She had lived through that
kiss Of theirs q hundred times, and
each time It seemed that she must
scream aloud in her agony. And yet
she had not said word to Bob-not
q word Of question or reproach. She
could not lower the flag Of her pride
to ask her husband why his lips had
chung to those Of his sister in-law.
Did not every man consider it his
right to kiss his wife's sister, and no
questions asked?
She knew that no matter ! II she

The Rushmore Memorial

: President Coolidge made good suggestion last
week when he spoke at the dedication of the Mount
Rushmore memorial in South Dakota to four of our
great presidents last week.
His suggestion that the whole country join
in financing this great piece of work, so far paid
for by citizens of South Dakota. He pointed out
that the expense Of completing it will be great and
those in other states should help by giving fnan-
cial aid.
This monument will be great thing; greater
than any ever attempted before. 1t is which
will stand for centuries showing our devotion to
four men who probably did more than any others to
aid in the advancement of this country.
For that reason. it could we'll be made national
project. If the federal government would carry on
the work. it would be good thing but If this can
not be arranged there surely should be many glad
to contribute to this worthy project.

Airplane Landing Places on Tall Buildings

tic dream; and it has seen the automobile come in
to universal use 1t recalls the days when people

known as the telephone and it has seen the tele-
phone come into universal use. The same thing is
true of the electric light the movie. the radio the

the flying machine take shape and develop into the

The most recent 'news" Of this order which must
startle people somewhat is the announcement that
