THE STATE'!
(Established lSi.5)
AN EMPTY VICTORY.
Official returns are coming in slowly, but enough
is known to indicate that the farmers of North
Dakota have repudiated socialism with the assist­
ance of the vote in the cities.
Townley and his St. Paul junta of red^card so­
cialists will not be able to overturn constitutional
government in this state if available returns are
indicative of final results.
In practically every county reported not enough
votes were cast on the amendments to secure a
majority of all persons voting at the election.
Many people ^turned in blank ballots which were
as potent as votes against socialism. Otheis split
their ticket picking ou' an amendment here and
there which also has hci a decided tendency to
decrease the vote on-th. vital amendments the
lifting of the debt limit and the letting down of
the bars to unlimited and unrestricted issuance of
bonds.
The election of Frazier was never seriously
questioned. Admirers of the clean cut campaign
conducted by S. J. Doyle hoped that some uj. :eaval
against the present spineless admrr. nration
might give North Dakota a real
There is cvioci ..'ywhore in the vote,

the dire consequences which would result in fol­
lowing the socialistic vagaries of Townley, Lemke,
LeSeuer and the single tax advocate, Walter T.
ills.
The defeat of nearly all the constitutional
mendments, can be credited largely to the excel
ent work of Mr. DoyM the jiwiW campaign
committee.
Mr. Doyle's personal candidacy everywhere was
subordinated to the larger and more important
economic issues upon whose defeat so much de­
pended. Mr. Doyle's clean cut analysis of the
issues turned many farmers frcjm the destructive
leadership of Townley.
Frazier's candidacy had a 'rong sentimental
appeal for the fanners of the state. He is the
first simon pure farmer governor. Many of them
felt that if he were properly shackled by a defeat
of the Townley amendments, they would ac­
cord him the usual courtesy of a second term.
Circumscribed by a debt limit and other consti­
tutional restrictions, Mr. Frazier cannot follow all
of Town ley's leads. North Dakota farmers re­
fused to all" his hand and he must rely on the
same old trumps.
The returns reflect a defeat for Townley, Le­
Seuer, Mills and Lemke. Governor Frazier can
take what pleasure he may from the personal
tribute his vote implies. If the farmers preferred
to place a bouquet in his hands rather than a two
edge sword, it is another indication that the North
Dakota farmers are still *ane on economic issues
and do not care to join Mr. Townley in his social­
istic joy ride.,
An empty victory.
A bas Townleyism.
A bas socialism.
Spa was an appropriate place for Bill finally to
taste the waters of defeat.

Well, as Will Hays would say, the world is safe

What shall be done with Wilhelm Hohenzollern,
than whom all time has never disclosed a more dis
picable murderer or .greater coward?
This former, kaiser has sought safety in Hol­
land.
Holland, seemingly, is willing to intern him to
protect him from the wrath of an outraged world,
and from the just vengeance of the liberated Ger­
man peoples.
The Dutch government believes that by thus
sheltering the fiend-exile it is obeying interna
c.Mw which provides security ^or exiles.
the Dutch government errs in placing this
arch-murderer in the category of political exiles.
The rest of the world must needs set the Dutch
government right on this matter. Wilhelm Ho­
henzollern must not escape the punishment he so
well merits, and which all honest people insist
must be given him. It doesn't matter much how
this punishment comes to him—on the guHotine,
the scaffold, or how—just so that the world is rid
forever of his presence. There isn't room for the
rest of us and Bill Hohenzollern on this globe!
However, the government pf Holland is slow to
realize this. Possibly the government of Holland
expends too much friendly concern on this most
vicious of criminals. It is, therefore, up to the
rest of the world to enlighten Holland, for it is in­
conceivable that Holland would sacrifice the
friendship of the rest of the world for William
Hohenzollern.
We Americans cannot talk directly to the Hol­
land government. We cannot tell the queen and
her governing heads that we will have to abandon
our friendship for Holland if Holland continues to
provide a haven for William Hohenzollern. But
we can tell the queen and her government that
very thing in an indirect manner..
We Americans can tell the Holland minister in
Washington.
We Americans can tell him that America must
sever the bond of friendship with Holland unless
Holland expels this Hohenzollern murderer from
its territory.' Let Holland turn him over to the
allied powers or back to the Germans, but let it not
shelter him.
It is altogether probable that the minister of
Holland in Washington would communicate with
few million Americans something like this:
"If your government continues to harbor Wil­
liam Hohenzollern, the people of this country can­
not associate with the representative of thbt gov­
ernment. If your government stands by William
Hohenzollern the people of the United States ask
half mast in North Da- you as representative of that government to re­
turn to Holland, and remain there as long as Hol­
land is the haven of the Hohenzollerns."
The Holland minister is Dr. August Phillips, and
his address is 1401 Sixteenth St., N. W., Washing­
ton, D. C.
iWhat do you say about writing him a letter on
the subject?
The title of "ranking Republican senator" is still
far from Jeanette Rankin's grasp.
Harden says the kaiser "has made himself' un-j
.ry." A mildi way of putting it.
The only after-the-war employment problem!
will be that affecting royalty and militarists.
For Pete's sake don't hold that peace conference
in Washington, The city already has 200,000
more inhabitants than there is room for.
Germany can never pay that huge restoration
bill in gold. She should be made to pay in kind—•
in raw materials, labor, ships and manufactured
products.
The Bolshevik government has offered to let the
Czecho-Slovak troops return home, if they will lay
down their arms They tried that game on the
Czecho-Slovaks once before, and then cut loose j,
on them with machine guns.
The way the boche looks at it he can never pay
in full for the damage he has already done. The
allies will make him pay the last penny he can,!
anyhow—and it won't be adequate. Hence all the
loot he hau off in olation of
pure velvet.
The peace treaty will have to be ratified by a
Republican senate. But, since the peace treaty
will be history's most complicated document, the
product of perhaps a year's hard labor, it's doubt­
ful whether a Senate of any political complexion
would refuse ratification.
With dovetail co-operation faiftiliar of old, the
Hun military pillages the French while the Hun
propaganda wireless wails for sympathy. The
Huns never let their left hand (the socialist party)
know what their riight hand (the military party)
is stealing.
Sayville, L. I.—Radio tower here has picked, up
wireless message addressed, "To American ba­
bies." It reads, "Grave shortage teething rings
and all-day-suckers. To prevent anarchy in Teu­
ton nurseries American babies are implored to in­
tercede with allies to modify armistice terms al­
lowing submarines, motor trucks and freight cars
tto carry these urgent supplies to suffering German
infants." The message is signed, "Fritz Prople

HIS Btyjjj-JOB-TODAY
FRAZIER CALLS UPON PEOPLE TO
RETURN THANKS FOR BLESSINGS
In this—one of the most solemn moments in our national his­
tory when many hearts and voices are lifted in thanks to God for
the victory and peace so earnestly longed for, it is specially fitting
that a day be dedicated to prayer and thanksgiving. It seems
providential that this great climax should come just at the season
when the people throughout the nation have been wont to gather in
their homes and places of worship to give thanks to Almighty
God for the good things enjoyed during the year. But a few weeks
ago. we had little assurance that the end would come so soon, and
now that the aims and purposes of our nation have been aphieyed
we well have reason to rejoice uecause of what has been jWr.o^ftht
in the name of righteousness, justice, and democracy.
That we should win the war was a foregone conclusion, for
right must eventually prevail. Our forces on land and sea have
been inspired by the most noble and honoraole motives. The terms
upon which war was waged were the fairest ever presented. The
spirit of our President and the American public would not have
permitted war to be waged on any other terms. God has blessed
our nation with victory because of her adherence to right prin­
ciples and honest purposes. Now let us be guided by the memor­
able words of the great Emancipator: "'With malice toward none,
with charity for all. with firmness in the right as God gives us to
see the right, tet us finish the work we are in, to bind up the na­
tion's wounds, to care for hftn who shall have borne the battle, and
for his widow and his orphans, to do all which may achieve and
cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all na­
tions."
During the past several weeks our people have i)$en sorely
tried—not by war alone, but by pestilence as well. Few localities
have been spared. The fact that the disease appears to have
now spent its force is in itself auundant reason for the giving of
thanks.
1
Our state has been fairly prosperous, which, coupled with the
intense loyalty of her citizens, has enabled North Dakota to make
an enviable record in its support of the national government in the
world crisis. Every appeal for funds has been largely oversub­
scribed. More than 25,000 men have left our borders to enter mil­
itary and naval service. Thousands of others are engaged in war
construction work. Our young women have volunteered as nurses
wherever needed. The sacrifices made by those remaining at home
are also commendable, both in caring for the sick and in assuming
added burdens because of the atjsence of those accustomed to per­
form these duties. Fond hearts have suffered agonies of apprehen­
sion while the loved ones have been away and exposed to the,dan
gers that lurk in and about war. Well may we pause and stand in
reverence before the One whose power has made possible this won­
derful victory.
Believing that the thanksgiving spirit may best be fostered
and developed through appropriate observance. NOW, therefore,
I, Lynn J. Frazier, governor of North Dakota, do hereby designate
and set aside
By the Governor:
Thomas Hall.
Secretary of 'State.
THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 28, 1918 as THANKSGIVING DAY
and trust that thanks may be expressed not in-words alone but al­
so in some form of helpfulness to others—thus making our Thanks­
giving season one of cheer and joy to everyone within our com.
monwealth and to others enjoying its bounty, and hastening
glad time of "Peace on Earth, oood Will to Men."
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the state of North
Dakota at the capitol this 11th day of November, A. D. 1918.
SINGER EMPHASIZES IMPORTANCE
The importance of music was voiced
the other day in New York by Davie
Blspkam, the distinguished baritone
whose son is numbered in the rank*
of those wh(i have made the suprem«
sacrifice.
"It is the duty of all mankind." sai^
Mr. Bispham. "to see that the fighting
man's need for music slialL be care
fully considered. Music Js the one
balm that helps us all to look forward
to the hapies conditions which will
follow this conflict. With the men at
the front, music has proven itself one
of the greatest stimulants to the spir­
its of the soldiers. There is a story
tpld of an English captain who, with
the aid of a penny whistle and a toy
drum led bis men out of a dangerous
position, when they were too exhaust
ed to march without the stimulus ot
music. Such stories comg back ir
countless numbers from the front.
You have all heard something bear­
ing on the great need for music, sc.
tlult it seems scarcely necessary for
me to add my appeal to make slacker

Give your records' liberally, knowing,
in so doing that you are supplying
