Two Special Elections

Residents Of Bismarck and many
other North Dakota cities will have
ample opportunity to exercise their
talent in marking ballots in this
"off" election year.
First on the list is the special
school bond election for September
IA, to be followed eight days later
by the special state election on re-
ferred and initiated measures.
In each case the electorate will
have opportunity to express itself
on matters Of policy without regard
to the personalities which 50 often
tumble the picture at regular cleo
tons. Unswayed by prejudices for OF

sit down, reason the issues out for

Hands Across the Prairie

Few situations offer better illustra-
ton Of the cleansing value OF honest
competition than the current rela-
tons between Bismarck and James
town.
Less than two years ago there was
bitter feeling between many resi-
dents of the two communities as a
result OF the capitol removal effort.
Some individuals in each city vowed
that never again would they do busi-
ness with a concern in the rival
town. Bismarck citizens were par
ticularly aggrieved because they felt
they were being unfairly attacked in
the enjoyment of their homes and
their livelihoods.
Some Jamestown citizens, reused
to a furore Of civic enthusiasm, also
held some resentment. Never before
in the history Of the state were two
of its major communities 50 sharply
divided, so pitted against each other
in aggressive combat.
Then came the election and a
clearing OF the skies. Bitterness
waned and most folks saw the alb
surdity of 1t all. After all, the two
communities were neighbors, bound
by . common interest for the ad-
yancement Of North Dakota. In both
cities those hectic days seem long
ago and far away.
Now they reach hands across the
prairie to each other and are friend
]y rivals. They understand and ap-
preciate each other on the common
basis OF American friendship, and
cementing 1t all Is a new argument,
that of which city has the best base
ball team. This contest seems SO
close that, whichever city wins in the
end, the loser will have little to be
sorry for and the winner no cause
for Dragging. What could be fairer
than that?
Emphasizing the change in attitude
which two years can bring are the
receptions which Bismarck recently
gave Jamestown's baseball rooters
and that for local fans at Jamestown
last Sunday.
The Capital City made honored
visitors Of its erstwhile foes and
hopes they enjoyed the entertain
ment accorded them here.
Jamestown's reception for Bis
marck last Sunday could hardly have
been surpassed. There was friendli-
ness In it, and good will and good
wishes for success in everything
except that baseball game.
It is better so, for jamestown and
Bismarck have far more reason to
pull together than to fight each
other. It Is as bad for city to har-
Dor a grudge a. for the individual to
scar his soul with morose contem-
plation. BY their present attitude
Bismarck and Jamestown are setting
an excellent example Of tolerance
and good will.

A reader sends in a bit Of enlighten.

Our family doctor objects to the
use of any salve with petroleum
base, especially on large area, as

not function thru petroleum as
thru animal fat, and when sick
with pneumonia or influenza, one
needs every possible square inch
of skin. He says remedial value
of menthol, ETC., Is more than off,
set by loss Of skin area.
This seems important. Think OF
the poor kids with terrible coughs
whose fond but misguided mamas

ing grease on their poor little
chests, putting a third of their
pores out of commission, throw

BROKERS IGNORE PACT.
Grain Traders Profess They Do Not
Understand Wheat Agreement.

CHICAGO. August Is R.-Grain
brokers on the Board of Trade paid
little attention today to the wheat
agreement reached at an international
conference in London, protesting that
they did not understand it.
The price of September wheat
opened some cents higher today at
Slightly more than the price set in the
London agreement for maintenance
four months before tariff reductions
would be considered. The price of
wheat has averaged higher than the
81 cents in deprecated American
weeks. running far above a dollar for
some time before the July break.
While buying at advanced prices at
the opening today was ascribed by
some brokers to the London agreement,
the demand apparently consisted of
orders from those who thought the
plan would be bullish lever, for trade
went stale within the first half hour
Other dealers said that the early rise
was due to strength in securities,
ascribed in turn to indications Of
further credit expansion.
Grain experts professed not to know
what benefits could be derived by
America from lowering of tariffs
Brokers felt that expectation, which
would benefit the United States, would
not be greatly helped by reduction in
European tariffs, since Liverpool prices
to be equivalent to 81 cents here would
have to reach more than a dollar a
bushel to care for the transfer charges
from this country. while for weeks the
English market has been lower than
Chicago without allowing for the ship
ping costs of 18 cents bushel
Including transportation charges,
September wheat is now selling in Liv-
erpool for about 38 cents bushel less
than in Chicago.
