Roots in the Soil


Comparable to the desire of the
farmer to own his own place is that
of the city dweller to have four walls
which he may call his own.
This desire to establish roots in the
soil is one of the oldest the human
race knows. Wars have been fought
and empires have tottered as a re-
suit of this natural longing. In mod
ern times it has played an impor-
tant part in the complex industrial
picture.
Under the stress Of the times.
many married sons and daughters
have sought refuge in the homes of
their parents, but this condition usu-
ally proves unsatisfactory for all
concerned and the tendency is to
eliminate it as rapidly as possible.
AS result of this situation bust
ness commentators remark tend
ency toward establishment of home
life in many cases, even though
it may be on a very modest basis.
At the same time the estimated
potential demand for new houses is
put at 100000.
The American Builder, anXiously
watching the trade induces and other
business barometers, asked 1000 typi-
cal wage earners what they were GO
ing to buy when things get back to
normal. The home building urge led
all others by wide margin.
At $4,000 each, 100000 homes rep
resent a potential building business
of 10 billion dollars. Add to this
figure the amount that would be
spent for furnishings and equipment
and we can sec the wheels of indus
try humming again. Add to these
factors the enormous demand for
everything under the sun which
would accompany improved farm
conditions and the silver lining be-
gins to show through the cloue,
which has overhung the business
world for nearly three years.

eh. my children:"
Bob stilled the shout of rejoicing
with an appraised hand. "You are
right, Manuel. None could have done
it but Ell Coyote. yet even for FL
Coyote it was at price,"
The long, close fellowship be-
tween those two men made Manuel
guess the answer. His smile of ex-
ultation died and in a tremulous
whisper he asked. "You gave your.
self up for us?"
what else? l offered Ell Coyote
in exchange for his band. There was
no other way. 1t was a good trade.
Without you could have done lit
tie, for you are the best of those
who have come to me. 1t was better
SO. And yet."-his clenched hand
frightened on the saddle-horn-"we
were SO near victory"
For a time in the gloom of that
granite recess he looked at them.
Fearless. impulsivc. doglikc in their
loyalty. EACH of them he had known
the history and the hopes of each.
They had faced death together. they
had kept back the power of Morales.
Yes. it had been a good game. and
a little glow of pride and of affec-
ton for these strangely assorted men
showed now in Don Bob's troubled
eyes.
They stood silent, helpless before
the disaster that had overtaken their
leader. Uneasily they looked at one
another, like dumb animals in pain.
He had been their protector. He had
led them in revolt. He had taught
them to hope, and now he was going
away to face-none dared even guess.
Manuels voice trembled. Must
it be this, amigo7 Is it not better to
fight our way out? Come, stay with
us and together when darkness
comes we will fight our way to free
dom again. Do not let them take
you. Without you what are we but
helpless children? Do not go from
us. you who have been our father"
But Don Bob shook his head and
smiled. Then for the last time he
spoke. 1--WE have never pulled trig-
ger against the soldiers of either
your country or mine. To do that
would have meant defeat to the
cause. But my going does not mean
defeat. Behind me leave you to
carry on. You are the hope of the
bordcrland. Be men and no one can
make you slaves Stand for the lib
erty that alone makes lite bearable
and you will never need me or any.

Time to Get Busy
(Emmons County Record

With the announcement by Hazel
ton and Strasburg business men that
they will hold their corn shows next
week, We are again reminded that
Linton should be getting busy with
similar plans.
We still have about three weeks yet
before the state corn show and We
suggest that we make use of it and
arrange for corn show, harvest
festival or something on that order
with prizes and entertainment for
the host Of farmers who patronize
our business institutions the year
round.
Successful corn and poultry shows
were held here In 1928, % and 80,
the latter. one of the best ever held
IN the county. Last year we fell
down for some reason or other and
failed to have show. This year,
with similar events going on all
around us, we cannot afford to take
back seat for anyone.
Emmons is the champion corn
county in the state. And Linton, as
the leading city Of the county, should
take the lead In keeping that cham
pionship by promoting the exhibition
Of its prize product.
We owe 1t to ourselves and to the
farmers who have been loyal to us
with their patronage to put on a
corn show this year, SO let's do it.

On Oct. Is. 1918, Americans ad-

French took Laon without a fight
and also took LaFere and occupied

British troops advanced into the

No Halt, Yet

While European and some Ameri-
can statesmen continue to talk of
arms reduction and effective action
by the League of Nations, Japan
goes blithely ahead with its plans to
establish domination of the entire
continent of Asia.
The next step, it is practically adj
mitted, is the seizure of Jehol,
province contiguous to Manchuria
and having an area larger than the
states of North and South Dakota
combined. 1t, like Manchuria, is a
rich agricultural country and has
vast mineral resources. From Jehol
the path of japanese glory leads
southwark and still further eastward
to the gates of Pekin.
The ostensible reason for this plot,
which no effort is made to conceal,
lies in the sentimental desire of Pu
vi, one-time boy emperor Of China
and now ruler with Japanese adj
visors) of Manchuria, to restore the
domain of his fathers. Japan, of
course, cannot resist the appeal of
such ambition and SO it will help.
The League of Nations report on
the Manchurian situation would be
effective against most powers but in
this instance it will be valucless.
1t means that the moral forces of the
world will be aligned against Japan
but this does not mean that the gov
crnments of all nations will oppose
further japanese inroads in Asia.
The world of diplomacy has rarely
based it's actions on right and wrong
and this case probably will prove no
exception.
And even if the opinion of the
world is united it will make no diff
ference. The Japanese are immune
TO moral suasion. Short Of aiding
the Chinese In actual physical re-
sistance there is nothing the other
nations can do about it.
BY going too far in Asia, however.
Japan may step on the toes of the
Russian Bear, although the Soviets
have shown no disposition to be
quarrelsome and there is rumor of a
secret agreement which will enable
Russia to enjoy part of the spoils
of aggression.
This is discounted by the fact that
the only thing of real Importance
Japan could offer Russia would be
warm water port on the Pacific
and that was important enough
more than 20 years ago to bring on
war between the two nations.
There seems no doubt now that
Japan dreams of world domination.
With resources of coal and iron
available and millions of people to
place under arms, it is possible that
the dream might come true and our
Wanted white civilization would give
way to domination by yellow men.
There is more than a little irony
in the fact that the first buffer be-
tween such a movement and the
white world would be Soviet Russia,
white, mongol and what have you
as to race, and present pariah among
the nations.

WHAT A LOT OF INCURABLES
CURE THEMSELVES

Old Doctor Nightly sported hand
some Vandyke necktie eliminator.
His picture was published more fire.
ouently than any other doctor except
DR.. Munyon, at least till came on,
and Nightlys pictures always bore
the sobriquet "the specialist not
the we'll known or famous specialist.
Just "thc specialist" What his spe-
cialty was no one knew, but the doc
tor made the circuit of the jay towns
at bi-monthly intervals. His coming
was duly heralded in the Village
Squawkcr. complete with lists Of real
and imaginary ailments in which the
specialist considered himself good,
and the hours at which the multitude
might interview the doctor at his
parlors in the hotel near the livery
stable.
1t was natural that DR.. Nightlys
pitch should overlook the livery
stable, for his hobby was horse rae
ing; indeed he owned a string of
race horses and the racing circuit
kept him much on the road, so that
the specialist racket made a nice
sideline to fill in the time between
track meets.
At the race track DR.. Nightly's spiel
was simple: I'm entering such and
such bosses in this or that race.
Beat 'em! Back in the hotel parlors
it was more subtle: Pronounced by
his medical brethren an incurable
conSumptive.
There ought to be movement to
persuade more ordinary dub doctors
to pronounce more patients incur
able. 1t seems to be just the stimulus
needed to make the incurables quit
fooling, roll up their sleeves, study
the matter for themselves and likely
as not discover the cure in few
short evenings. suppose there is
no disease on the incurable list but
that some victim has lost patience
with the ordinary doctors and sought
out for himself the cure he needed.
In spite of everything I have taken
an optimistic view of the situation
and fixed upon the year 1910 as the
time Of the dawn of enlightenment
