ton OF the rail lines on an exclusive

The funny part about this conten-

the railways themselves. They con-
tend that the government not only
supplies barge operators with free
right Of way but falls to regulate
them and that, as q result, they are
cutting the Threats Of the railroads

Constructive Suggesti0n

From the American Game Associa-
ton comes the suggestion that hunt
err plant nuts, vines and shrubs In
the woods this fall In order to provide
more natural food for the quarry
which they seek.
In those sections Of the nation
where they thrive, hickory nuts, wal
nuts, butternuts and others are avail
able. In this section wild grapes,
dogwoods, bullberries, wild plums and
other seeds which may be picked up
In the woods might easily Be planted
by Z moments work In sheltered
places.
Certainly, II game and other birds
are to multiply, they must have an
abundance Of natural food and this Is
one method Of providing 1t for them.

ENJOYING the Revival

Regardless OF whether or not the
current business improvement Is an
artificial one, the American people
are enjoying 1t to the full.
That this Is true Is evidenced by
the latest reports on gasoline con-
sumption and the use OF automobiles.
Basing its view on the data avail
able. the American Automobile AS
ISOLATION estimates that motor tours
this year have increased 20 per cent
while expenditures per capita on such
tours have gone up Is per cent.
It asserts that this year tours COW
cred longer distances and consumed
more time and that there was less
shopping around for cheap accom-
modations, with the result that the
better hotels and resorts got Z big
ger share Of the business than was
the case last year.
A peculiar sidelight on this gen.
eral situation was expressed by =
newcomer to Bismarck who. during
a leisurely trip to his new home, tried
to stop ut several tourist camps be-
tween here and Fargo. He was sur
prised to find that most of the more
attractive tourist camps between Far
60 and Bismarck were filled up and
that most Of the cars stopping 1t
them bore North Dakota licenses.
He commented that North Dakota
must be a state on wheels. The OBJ
servation may be justified, since
driving conditions In this state, gen.
orally speaking, are superior to those
anywhere else In the Union.

Strikes a New Note

Strikes q New Note
Those who were fortunate enough
to hear the keynote address OF
Thomas H. Noodle, Democratic can
didate for governor. in Fargo last
Saturday, must have been impressed
with his enthusiasm, candor and an
absence Of all vituperation and abuse.
This speech places the campaign on
a high plane, and Noodles program
of conservation, revision Of tax af-
fairs and other constructive measures
advocated, should give the electorate
much food for study.
He made one very significant
pledge to the people OF North Dakota
as follows:
Il promise you also that II I
am elected governor, shall en-
deavor to conduct myself In such
manner that it will never be
necessary for the good wife to
run for office to vindicate the Of
fetal record"
This disposes OF that situation in .
concise and vigorous manner. 1t
should be much more effective than
columns of TRADE and demagogic ut
terances.
President Roosevelt's New Deal Is
an issue In this campaign only as it
binds the candidates for United
States senate and for seats in the
congress Of the United States.
There are many honest differences
Of opinion as to the wisdom Of the
Democratic national economic policy
but there Is no advantage to be gain
ed by confusing national with state IS
sues. Mr.. Noodle has separated them
very carefully when he declares that
Langerism. Is opposed to good gov
eminent, Is an issue In North Dakota.
The Tribune would 60 so far as to
say that Langerism and the integrity
Of our courts are practically the only
issues In the state campaign which
opened so auspiciously In Fargo last
week.
Mr.. Noodle delivers campaign
speeches differing from many heard
on the hastings in this state. They
are clean-cut, calm and logical dis
cussions Of the pertinent issues. II
he continues to warm up to his SUBJ
ject with the vigor and pugnacity
displayed at Fargo, Mr.. Noodle can.
not fail to impress the electorate Of
North Dakota with his honesty and
sincerity.
