APRIL », 1914. POLITICS QUIET. Efforts to stir up enthusiasm over politics, except for two or three of the leading candidates, are falling flat throughout the state. North Dakotans "are too busy putting In their crops and watching war news to get excited "over a political campaign. Reports from Bismarck state that there will probably be no publicity ••pamphlet this year, owing to the in difference on the part of candidates. Very few wish to use it, many stating that they will not send anything for publication. The Forum is of the oplnon that this apathy, especially on the part of the people, will continue. There are no big questions to be settled, no stirring campaign issues, and the voters will go on about their business, read what the papers have to say about the dif ferent candidates and quietly make up their minds as to whom they will sup port. Now and then there is a spasmodic effort to inject some of the old time factional bitters into the campaign. Generally these efforts come from the democratic ranks, in the hope of creating differences in the republican tanks that have worked so nicely in the past—for the democrats. Such ef forts, however, only fizzle out like a lire crftcker that fails to explode, leav ing the fellow who lights the fuse looking foolish. There are no factional differences In the republican party in this state. The whole issue this year, so far as the republicans are concerned, is a choice of men. For the two big places to be filled, governor and Unit ed States senator, some of North Da kota's finest men are In the field. Every candidate for these two offices is a man who would make good on tno Job. Sothe would give greater serv ice than others, but they are all pro gressive, clean and able. Every one of them has been in the public eye for •ome time. All have served the state, jnost of them for many years and the people will select the winners because past records and performances. NO NEED OF STANDING ARMIES. There is something in American character which makes the volunteer idea, in case of war, singularly at tractive. Practically every American balks at the suggestion of compulsory military service. "Our soldiers are all volun teers," It a saying that was heard around the world when the Spanish American war was in progress. In quaint cafes in Manila, where Euro peans of many types met, the inde pendent and high-aplrited bearing of the American soldiers who entered 4Buch places was remarked immedlate jly. The Europeans believed that at 'least the men of the regular regiments fwere serving from compulsion. Yet •ven the volunteer soldiers rejected this suggestion when it was made to i them. "Our soldiers are all volun leers." they took pride in saying. Perhaps It Is because the American Ifco strongly distrusts compulsory serv llce that he so promptly volunteers fwhen there is the remotest chance of bis being needed. Within the past week the Spanish MAmerlcan veterans from many places jihave expressed their readiness to go •Into Mexico, in case of need. The jyoung men of the militia in every state 4n the union are boyishly eager to be "•n the firing lines. Recruiting offices throughout the jland are being swamped by applicants tor enlistment. Chicago reports that only about 15 per cent of the men who applied were found to be physically |(it but it must be remembered that jthe standards are very high and at any rate, it is seen how ready the average man is to go to war when bulletins begin to appear in the news "Japer offices. Trained soldiers are better than re 'erults, it is admitted but perhaps the fact remains that the recruit who is all eagerness to serve will be more •speedily transformed into a good soldier than the man who has be -grudgingly learned the lessons of the soldier, and who has never been ^caught up in the whirlwind of 'enthusiasm which characterises the American volunteer, HEALTH IN MEXICO. f: A subject of speculation is the dan ger to which American troOps would ^e subjected In Mexico by reason of the climate. The rainy season is be ginning. The coast climate is trying even to Mexicans, a large propor tion of whom by preference live well "up oft the sides of the mountains. The altitude of the City of Mexico Is 7,350 feet. General Winslow, who Is n6w I in Jaria, is quoted as making light ^©f the Mexicans as fighters, bundle i posed to regard with fear the results [of the Mexican climate. He says that [the laost Important thing to be con sidered Is the sanitary care of our !army, as the coast zone, extending .-fifty miles Into the interior, is deadly Ottf lAV&di&ir fdtt*, be declare*, must move out of this zone without delay if it is to escape a far greater danger than that of the ene my's bullets. On the other hand, it is a cause for congratulation that the aclSftee of san itation has made the problem of pre serving health in the tropics simpler than it was in any foTmer time. Maj. Buell ig. Rogers, surgeon of the Sec ond infantry, Illinois National guard, says on this subject: "The great problem for the army in Mexico will not be to tight the Mexi cans, but to fight the mosquitoes, the bedbugs, the fleas and the flies. Be fore the medical department had reached Its present efficiency these cnmiefi would have been deadly, but in the present cam ,aign I do not look for them to be so. Our campaign*) in the Philippines, 1 think, establish the coh ciuest that we have made over infec tious diseases. "Vera Cruz probably will offer us the greatest mosquito problem. Before we knew the part played by the mos quito in yellow fever and malaria, it was impossible to prevent outbreaks. Now, however, the army equipment provides netH which will protect the men, at least, at night, when the pests are at their worst. "The army will have nn advantage by its head, General "Wood, having been a surgeon. He will realize the primary Importance of sanitation more, probably than another com mander who had not had medical training. Men enlisting will be vacci nated against both typhoid and small pox. "Mexico City Itself and the moun tain uplands should give us little trou ble, for the altitude makes the temper ature moderate and the general condi tions wholedome" Of course there is a vast difference between theory and practice. During the preparations for the Spanish wt^r there were frightful conditions in some of the concentration camps, ahd many splendid young fellows who nev er- had a chance to go out of the coun try lost their lives. But there is a far better understanding of camp sanita tion than there was sixteen years ago. and the American army will have a« valuable asset in the medical reserve corps. EDITORIAL COMMENT Soft Talk vs. Hard Fact. Milwaukee Sentinel: "Our feeling for the people of Mexico is one of deep and genuine respect," says Presi dent Wilson, 3s it, indeed? Let us clcar our minds of can't. There are some Mexican people for whom we have "deep and genuine re spect." But to say that we entertain any such sentiment for the bulk of the population is preposterous. There are about 13,000,000 Mexicans whom we would not include in our boundaries at any price or in any status. Annexation Is about the last thing the Mexicans have to dread. We don't want them. We have, chronic wastrels and practical anarchists enough of our own, native and imported. it is to be hoped that our amiable and scholastic president's tender and admiring words for the "greasers" will not inspire them with^the fear that we love and value them so much that we want to kidnap them. Nothing of the sort! Can Be Stopped. Des Moines Register and Leader: A warm-blooded traveler abroad wrote a letter to Bennett's paper de fining the tip system on shipboard as blackmail. Steamship men got up in arms about it, instantly. "We want to, but we can't stop it." said they. "It is well known to all tourists that it is not compulsory upon any one to bestow a tip." This is adding insult to injury. It Is well known to all who travel that it is compulsory to tip. The tipping busi ness was not devised for the benefit of those who serve In hotels, sleeping cars and in steamships. It was devised to force the traveling public to pay the wages of the employes after pay ing the employers for the service the wages represent. And it is perfectly obvious that it can be stopped without the slightest difficulty whenever the employers want to stop it. Must Follow Marlborough. Philadelphia Record: Two more British landlords announce their intention to part with some of their real estate, but the amounts they are going to sell are too small to affect the general discontent at the tenure of land in Great Britain. A step in a better direction was taken last year by the Duke of Marlborough, who had 1,000 acres of Blenheim park plowed and sown with wheat. The yield of that area is not going to affect the price of bread, but it is something the duke sets an example which will have to be followed, or else there will be legislation seriously affecting land titles. What Irritates public feeling is not the large otvnership, with which people in cities are sufficiently familiar, but the amount of ground that ought to be producing food which is now re served as pleasure grounds and hunt ing preserves. War in Colorado. New York Tribune: It la grave news that comes from the Trinidad mining district of Colorado—so grave that not even the big events below the Rio Grande can blot It out. Meager reports are as yet available. But clearly the charge of grave crimes lies at the door of the state of Colo rado which explanations can but lit tle palliate. The fundamental quarrel between the mine owners and the strikers has been much expounded. In that quarrel sides can be taken as one's convictions run. But we can conceive of no con victions and no facts which will justify the wholesale shooting of women and children with machine guns. Unless disproof comes quickly, the belief will grow stronger and stronger that here, as in the state of West Virginia, the authorities (have far exceeded their constitutional duty to maintain order and are entering upon a campaign of war and destruction in behalf of the mine owners of the state.

President Smith of the State {Science school at Wahpeton and County Super intendent Thornton slept on benches in a school house out in Sheyonno town ship last Friday night. President Smith and Superintendent Thornton went out to Sheyenne last Friday to address a meeting in the consolidated school house in that district and about the time of the close of the meeting a terrific rain storm came up, making it impossible to make the drive back to Waloott to take the train. They therefore spent the night in the school house* and they dor/1 seem to be much the worse for the experience. Medina Citizen: Quite a number Of our farmers are going into the grow ing of alfalfa on an extensive scale this season. C. A. Bell is preparing twenty acres that he is going to seed to this great forage crop. E. M. Rear don states that he is going to put In twentv-flve acres. Karl and Jacob Hofmann, Fred Klein, Nick Johnson and many others are each going to seed quite nn acreage. With the grow ing of alfalfa and corn, the building of siloS and the addition Of more and better btoek—especially cows and hogs—prospects are certainly most flattering for the development of the Medina country into one of the most prosperous diversified farming com munities in the state. We have the start, let the good work continue. Beginning April 27 a new Schedule went into effect on the Stanton branch out of Mandan. The train leaves Mandan 7:15 a, m.

JACK MINE OWNERS' SIDE OF COLORADO TROUBLE Continued From Page One. then^ satisfactorily. We showed doctor that all of the points which ac claimed to be at issue with the excep tion of unionizing the camps, ih* Colorado Fuel & Iron Co. had volun tarily granted to Its employers long before the strike was called or talked of. These points are: "First—The eight hour day. This was established by the fuel company for all of its ddal miners some time ago. "Second—Semi-monthly pay. When this question was raised by one or two miners in one of the camps of the company, the officers at once studied the question and without delay decid ed to pay not only the miners In that particular camp twice a month, but all of the miners employed by the company. "Third—Check weighmen. For sev eral years the fuel company has rais ed no objection to the employment by the miners of their own check weigh men us is done in eastern mines where union labor is employed. In order that new men mi ht understand their right in this matter, some time since the of ficers of the company gave instruc tions that circulars should be posted In all the mines, stating that tho com pany had always encouraged its min ers to employ their own check weigh men. "Fourth—Company stores. It has been charged that the employes of the fuel company are obliged to buy at the company's stores. The storekeepers afo under strict instructions to fay to all that they are at liberty to trade where they please that the company Is glad of their patronage, but that their standing will not be affected one way or the other .b' their action in the matter. As a result of a study made in one of the mining camps of the company, it was found that only 22 per cent of the wages of the men was spent in the company's stores. "Fifth—Wages. In spite of tho fact that no dividends have been paid on the common stock of the company since our connection with it—a matter of at least ten or twelve years—and only $780,000 has been paid on the prefer red stock, of which the greater portion represented payment on account of an accrued dividend which had accumu lated during many years, the company voluntarily ii^reased the' wages of its miners last year by a total amounting to $300,000 a year and of its steel em ployes by a total of $250,000 a year. The wage scal« compares favorably with that o? any similar mines, wheth er union or non-union, in any part of the country. "In addition to the above, the only matter which has been raised by the union is the unionizing of the compa ny's camp. On this question of the open shop, namely, the right of every American citizen to work on terms satisfactory to h'mself without secur ing the consent of the union, I reiter ated to Dr. Foster what I said in my examination before the committee on: mines and mining in Washington a few weeks ago—that we regarded this as a matter of principle, which could not be arbitrated. "In reply to his request for some sug gestion as to how the strike could be terminated, we said to Dr. Foster that MEAT INJURIOUS TO THE KIDHEYS TAKE A TABLESPOONFUl. ..OF 6ALT& IP BACK HURT8 OR BLADDER BOTHER8 MEAT FORMS UBIC ACID. .r' We are ft nation of meat'eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warhs us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys -do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak fx'om the overwork they get sluggish: the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained In the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead and you have sting ing pains in the back or the tirlne Is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night when you have se* vere headaches, nervous and dlaszy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kid neys will act fine. This famous salts I is made from the acid of {trapes and lemon juice combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu tralize the acids in urine So It is no longer a source 'of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders.

It was such a big. deep one that fee had had to go to the doctor's to have it taken oat. "Weil, how does the hand feel this evening?" asked daddy,, "Much better, thank you, daddy," answered Jack. "You know, I think you need a Jackknife," said daddy, "ttfeeti you could JlUt cut out any splinter yourself." "How dreadful, daddy!'' said Evelyn. "Why, he might httft tiimstff!" "Am I really to have a jackknife, though?" asked Jack. "Yes," said daddy "I have been thinking for some time that you needed ene—one with plenty of blades In it I will bring it back with me tomorrow evening." "Oh, that's splendid I" said Jack. "It is just like you, daddy* 4e 0 the very thing I would want moat and to give it to me" "This evening," said daddy, "I am going to tell you about the little boy who was given a jackknife as a birthday present He did so many things With his knife that I think it might give you some ideas and suggestions of things you might make with the help of the knife, although I don't really suppose any boy needs to be told much about a jackknife, for, I fancy, aa •eon as you have it you'll be able to use it" Jack smiled and said: "Yes I will be able to use it, I think, tlttt do tell us the stOfy jtigt the same, for I would love to bear of the things the other little boy ntede with his knife." "This little boy," continued daddy, "was very fond of making all kinds of things. He set up a little carpentry shop In his room with a workstand. "He would make little bird houses, little squirrel houses, chairs, stands, boats, an express cart and, oh, countless other things! In fact, he jtist made all the things that boys like. "Before he bad his jackknife he was not at all intOTfegted in carpentry. But his knife helped so much. It was far more useful to him than his other tools." "I Can hardly wait now for my knife," said Jack. "Telling me about all those things the other little boy made has made me want to get right to work. But I will get my room all ready tomorrow for the shop." "And I have a little chair which will just be the right sise fofr you to Me working," said Evelyn. "Yes," said Jack, "and I can make lots of nice things for Evelyn's dolls." Evelyn looked happy at that speech, for she was pleased that Jack always wanted to share everything in some way or other with her. The Usefulness Of a Little Boy's New Jackknife. if the president would make a public statement that the federal troops were being sent to Colorado for the purpose of enforcing obedience to the law and securing to every citizen the right guaranteed to him by the constitution :o be protected in his life and liberty, wh's'.her he chooses to work as a mem ber of a union or not, it would go far to terminate the deplorable oonditions v hich now exist. The only point at issue, so far as the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co. is concern ed, is that of unionizing, and unioniz ing at the behest, not of employes, less than 10 per cent of whom were union men, but at tho demand of an outside body. This, as I have said, is a mat ter of principle which we could not •Jvcede or arbitrate. "In order to correct an impression which seems to have gained currency I desire to restate what was fully stated in the congressional examina tion, namely, our position with refer ence to organized labor. We do not question the right of any workmen to freely associate themselves in unions for the furtherance of their common and legitimate interests, but we do as sert the equal right of an individual to work ir dependency of a union if he so elects. We are contending against the right of unions io impose themselves upon an industry by force by assault and murder, and not against the right of men "to organize for their mutual benefit. "The impression has been created that if we would agree to submit to the unionizing of the camps of the Colo rado Fuel & Iron Co., this entire trou ble would be ended. The public gener ally does not seem to consider wheth er or not this is a right or a fair de mand. and In the interest of the em ployes of the company as a whole. What would become of the great ma jority of its workers were such sur rendei to be made? All of its loyal non-union employes, numbering sever al thousands, more than 90 per cent of the total number employed in the mines, who have been faithful to its intere&'s, -would be thrown out of em ployment unless willing to submit as individuals to union dictation. Is it the spirit of American fair play which is asking such ruthless disregard of the interests of honest men, or ift it the spirl- of partisanship and self seeking? "But the issue Is not one of merely local importance. It affects every workingman throughout tha land. The fact that labor unions represent but a very small minority of the workers of the entire country, seems to be lost sight of by those who urge the termi nation of this local difficulty at the price of surrender to union domination. Surely, no thinking man can aisk, much less expect, that we will abandon our own employes and the cause of the workers of the entire country because violence and wholesale slaughter are brought about by an element whicn has come to regard itself as above and be yond the reach of the law. "Are the labor unions, representing a small minority or the workers of the country, to be sustained In their dis regard of the Inalienable right of every American citizen to work without in terference whether he be a union or a non-union man? Surely the vast maj ority of American citizens will, with out fear or favor, stand for even hand ed justice under the constitution and equal rights for every citizen. "But there is a final aspect of this grave matter which deserves more than all else tho attention of tho American public in this crisis whether the Colo rado Fuel & Iron Co., and other opera tors have been wholly free from blame or not in the present controversy, the Issue now to be decided is whether tho state, or failing the state, the natton, shall make good tho constitutional guarantee of law and order. "At the present moment in Colorado funds are being openly raised and citi zens are being armed with the avowed purpose of resisting tTie authorities of the state. Since that issue of resist ance to constituted authority is raised, it Is unthinkable that the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co., or any of the compan ies operating in the state should be asked to yield their position on a preli minary and now extraneous matter of dispute, as the price of securing the withdrawal of forces armed to combat their own government." Upton Sinclair, socialist, author and lecturer, accompanied by Mrs. Sinclair and Mrs. aura G. Gannon, wife of Joseph Gannon, organizer of the West* ern Federation of Miners, late yester day visited the offices of John ft. Rockefeller, jr., to protest against con ditions iri the Colorado mines. Mr. Rockefeller declined to see any of the party, sending back word that he was too busy. WANTED. A FOREIGN POLICY.
