FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 30, l'91S,
LONG ROAD YET
The developments of the campaign on the Vest front.
are in every way gratifying to the Allies. Everywhere
along the-line where the fighting has been most active
the Germans are retreating. They are losing every day
vast quantifies of material which they are compelled to
abandon on the field, and their losses in prisoners alone
exceed the total losses of the Allies since the Allies as
sumed the offensive on July 18. They have lost more
than two-thirds of the territory which they, captured In
their great drive of the early spring, and-there is at pres
ent no indication of where they will Be able to form new
lines which they can hold for any length of time. Yet
it will not do for us to assume that becausethis tne
war is over, or that the end is in sight. The Chances are
that we have yet a lohg and hard road ahead of us.
It is not within the bounds of reason to suppose that
the German authorities now expect a military victory.
If Germany ever had a chance to win it was last spring,
when she had massed her entire available strength on
the west front, and before troops from the United States
began to appear on the battle line in appreciable rium
bers. If at that time Germany could have fought her
way through to the channel, in the operation separating
the British from the French armies, and utterly demor
alizing the communications of both, by attacking first one
side and then the other she might have inflicted damage
on the Allies which could not have 'been repaired by
aacesAlons from this side of the ocean. She made the
attempt, and failed./ She made other attempts, and they
failed. Then came the turn of the tide, and Germany
is now on the defensive, and there is every reason to be
lieve that she is permanently on the defensive. What
she Could not do when her own power was at its highest
as against the adversaries then in the field she cannot
now,do when her own strentgh is diminishing and that
of her opponents is increasing by leaps t^nd bounds.
Assuming that the German government realizes that
military defeat is inevitable, what course may we expect
it to pursue? Two courses are open. The Germans may
admit defeat, lay down their arms, and ask for terms.
Or they may continue to fight, in the hope that their ad
versaries, themselves wearying of the war, may stop short
of complete victory and consent to a'negotiated peace.
»j If the first course is chosen the German government
will have to deal, not. alone with the embattled democ
racy of'the .world, determined tp bring the arch criminals
j. of all the ages to a stem accounting, but with their own
people. Let the German government confess to the Ger
man people that it has misled them, lied to them, fed
them on false "hopes, slaughtered their men in the field
anS imposed untold privations on those who remained at
home in order to prosecute an adventure of rapine and
pillage, and how long would that government -endure?
The very philosophy on which the German people have
been fed would make* them all the more rep.dy to turn
and rend their leaders the moment they realized that
they had*been led into *a pitfall Instead of into the pleas
ant pastures which were to be theirs as thb fruit of the
promised victory.
There appears to be no escape from the conclusion
that the only hope of the German government lies in
prolonging thq war, no matter at what cost, in the- hope
that at some time before the point of annihilation is
reached, the Allies themselves, through sheer weariness,
will be willing to mak^ te^ms. Hence, while the Allied
armies are fighting their way to and into' German ter
ritory while the Germans are holding them back,' build
lng new defenses, retiring to them, leaving those for oth
ers, and so on, taking their toll of Allied lives all the way
along, the peace propaganda of Germany will be worked
in every Allied country to the limit. Full use" will be
made of .Socialism, internationalism, and I. W. W.-ism,
spread the doctrine that the war hag gone on long
enough and should, be ended. Everywhere agents will
be at work to fan into' flames the embers of discontent^
wherever they burn. Appeals will be made to humani
tarian sentiments And out of it all, if we are not on our
I, guard, will^grow the sentiment "that the Germans will
to create, that the peace that can be attained only
through victory is too costly, and that something less
must serve in order that human lives may be saved and
*. human suffering ended.
That is the logical course for the German govern
ment to piirsne. That is the course which there is every
reason to believe it will pursue. And in order to give
full effect to its propaganda it will be necessary for it
to make the war drag on. The Allies must be ready.
They must be prepared, not only to throw themselves
into the fight with enthusiasm, but to continue in it with
unfaltering resolution, and there must be kept before us
at ail times the essential fact that if peace is made with
Germany on any other basis than that of a complete
and unquestioned Allied victory,Xall the sacrifices and the
sufferings of these past four years will have been wasted,
and the monBter who is responsible for it all will be left,
scarred and braised, it is true, but yet strong and re
sourceful, and with his bloody weapons yet in his hands.

VP TO THE £0VKT
The Fargo Courier News is very much annoyed be
cause'the supreme court of the state is to be asked to say
Whether or not the list of proposed constitutional amend.
ments for which the petitions have been filed with tne
secretary $f state can lawfully be submitted to the people
for their approval or rejection a\ the approaching fall
election. This appeal to the court is, we gather from the
Fargo,paper's somewhat excited comment, an attack on
democracy, and «n invasion of the right of the people to
vote when afd how they please. There is no occasion for
any excitement. The suit is being brought in ample time,
and tl^e decision will doubtleSs be rendered long 'enougH
before the election to. prevent any confusion either in
preparing tr marking pallots if the court should approve
of the proposed procedure. And, if the plan under which
it is proposed to operate is really illegal, it is much bet
ter to ascertain that fact before election than after.
In order to avoid confusion -it is well to keep certffin
facts concerning our election methods clearly in our
minds.
Subject to certain restrictions contained in the con
stitution of the United States the people of North Dakota
have the unquestioned right, in legislative1 matters, to do
pretty much as they please. In order to safeguard the
rights of all Individuals, and to insure order in the con
duct of their busitiess the people some years ago adopt
ed a constitution which they decreed should be the su
preme law of the state. That constitution, among or».er
thlngv provided for the creatltyi of a sfate legislature
and defined its duties and fixed its limitations. It provid
ed, atso, that th^ constitution Itself might be amended in
a certain prescribed manner.
Because of those ^rftvisions the current laws of the
state were to be made by the legislature. They could be
made in ho other way -until the people, acting in strict
accordance with the constitution, amended that document
In such a manner as to provide for the enactment of laws,
under certain regulations, directly by the people. The
amendment is known as the referendum' amendment, and
under It the people, acting first by petition and then by
Secret ballot/can either veto laws that have been passed
by the legislature or enact lawS on their own initiative,
provided such laws themselves do not conflict with other
provisions of the constitution.
But the people, in order'to do these things, must be
governed by certain rules. They cannot meet in m,ass
convention and by "k viva voce vote enact valid laws.
must In all particulars follow the regulations which they
themselves ha\e madfe, and which have become a part of
the fundamental law of the state.
The people also adopted another constitutional
amendment providing for the initiation of future amend
ments by popular petition. Two years ago an attempt
was made to submit to the people under the initiative
provision another amendment the effect pf which would
have been to remove the capital of the state from Bis
marck to New Rockford. Objection was made to this on
the ground that its submission was not in accordance
with the recently adopt.ed constitutional provision. The
supreme court, which was created by the people for the
express purpose of deciding such questions, heard the
arguments and decided--the case- Its decision was that the
Initiative amendment did not of itself provide for the sub.
mission of questions--to a vote of the people, but merely
conferred on the legislature authority to make such pro
visions. Therefore, the initiative amendment not being
self-executing, proceedings attempted under it were void
until the legislature had provided the necessary machin
ery.
That is where tbfe matter stands today. Two sessions
of the Jegislature have been hel^ in the meantime, but at
neither of these has the assembly -seen fit to'act. There
fore, under the ruling of the only body competent to pass
on the subject, we have no initiative law in actual opera
tion.
The fistful of amendments which it is proposed to
submit are presented under this law wheh the supreme
q^urt has declared to be, in its present form, unworkable.
The secretary Of state asked the attorney general what
he should do about it. The attorney general passed the
buok b^ck to1 the secretary of state. The secretary of
state knew the question would' go to the courts anyway,
therefore he Ignored the court's decision and proceeded
as if there had been none. The matter fs again to be
placed before the supreme court and that body will have
an opportunity to affirm or reverse the former 'decision.
If it follows the former course, the proposed amendments
will not be Voted on this fall if the latter, they will be.
THE UNB0ASTING ENGLISH
We must not let our delight in the astonishing
achievements of our boys, bearing themselves^ like vete

being done in this tremendous tournament of the nations.

we have naturally dwelt chiefly upon the unexpected and
'gloriously bizarre—the slaying of the Gollaths by the dar

THE FIB
COf2PCl3AL
CHAPTER V.t
Over the-Hardies. .v
Our barracks were located in a Vil
lage near the Etwiss border. It was a
hilly, wooded country, and the air
was as bracing as new wine!
There was not the slightest delay
In starting our training. The morn
ing after bur arrival we drew French
horses--and French guns and caissons
ana hiked to a park -where some
French 'artillery instructors were
awaiting us.
Our first wdrk was to break the
horses ta harness. It was the hard
est job I .ever tackled for the nags
didn't understand-a word of English.
So we had to start right in .and teach
thbse animals how to takfe orders in
the language of the United States.'
Some of the fellows had brought
French grammars over with them,
and they tried out some of,the French
words on the horses. But their pro
nunciation Wae so punk that the nagri
didn't -savVy at all. As driver of the
lead piece, I had my troubles, as you
well imagine.
Thf horse may be the most intelli
gent of the beasts, as the naturalist
tells us, but he is no linguist, and
can't carry more than one language
in his noodle at the same time. Be-
fore
you cari graft a new lingo -into
nle hrnln vm.
his brain you have to kill off the old
one, and that is the method I fol
lowed with my nags. I gave orders
that nothing but United States be
talked to the horses,-and every time
I caught a French parlevooing" to
them I blew up and asked him' what
in thunder he meant by butting in
on my educational system. I guess
the first United States words the nags'
learned were "damn" and "hen," for
I confess, I useu both pretty freely at
the start of the Instruction.
1 had to laugh when I looked at
the French 75-millimeter guns, they
seemed so small and infer.ior when
compared with our American field
pieces.
"If~ we have' to use these Vys," I
thought, "the Huns won't do a thing
to -us when we get into action."
The French "75's." ....
But I underwent a radical change'
of opinion after several days of tar
get practice with the little fire-eaters.
I fou'hd that we could do faster arid
more (accurate* work with them than
with the more warlike looking Ameri
can pieces. It is certain that the Ger
mans know to their cost what the
little 75's ace capable of doing.
With my 'buddy, the sergeant, to
help me, I put in some hard work on
the guns, practicing with the sights
and getting familiar with the ra.rts.
It was my ambition to be able to send
accucate shell messages into boche
land. My buddy was enthusU&tic,
and said he had never seen- anybody
get along so fast.
"I can't get it out of. my head,
Reddy," he said, "that you are going
to make your mark over here."
"You make me blush, old top," I
replied. But his words gave me a
lot of encouragement', although I
knew that-he was just trying to make
me feel good.
The hard work soon won its reward,
for on September 1. 1917, I was made
„a cannoneer.
N
I was the proudest
buddy in the whole American irmy
when I got that boost
On the day of my promotion I was
turned over to a little French ser
geant, who had the reputation of
being one of the best artillerymen in
France. His English was insignifi
cant, but Oils gestures-were eloquent,
and I picked up fast under him. He
knew the French 75 like a jeweler
knows a watch. Among the things I
learned from him was how to clean
and how to disable the gun In case
it was threatened with capture by' the
Huns. I learned to love that little 75
as a man loves his horse or his dog.
Corporal l)e Varlla.
A few days later I was made a cor
poral, and then my joy was com
plete. I wouldn't have changed jobs
with the chief marshal of the French
army. In a battery the corporal sets
the deflection, sees that the cross hair
is on the target and fires the gun.
Already I had visions of ^mashing, in
boche front-line trenches and mak
ing direct hits on German munition
dumps. I" wanted to move my littfe
75 right up-to the front line-at once
and begin the devilment.
The way we Yanks progressed with
the guns amazed our 'French instruct
ors. it may sound like boasting, but
it is a fact that in a few weeks we
learned all they knew, and in target
practice we dumfounded them by the
number of our direct hits. It is true
that the American gunners We the
best in Jhe world. They have a truer
eye, a steadier hand and work' more'
quickly and* accurately than the artil
lerymen of any other nation. We
demonstrated that after ^we had been
on the front line but a few days/and
when American batteries get going
good over there, Germany is going to
realize that the Yanks are on the job.
American gunners are going to deliv
er the knockout to Von Hindenburg'e
forces.
Idfe in Camp.
Now I will give you a little idea of
our everyday life in that little French
village on the Swiss border. Reville
sounded at 4 a. m., and we bounded
out of our bunks, and had cold
showers. We engaged in setting-up
exercises until 6 a. m., when mess
was served. Gun drill started at 7
o'clock and lasted until 11:30 a. m.
Then we knocked off for mess again,
and«went back to the guns at 1
o'clock., drilling until 6 p. m., when
we had the evening meal. After that
we were free until 6. o'clock the next
mqrning.
The villagers used us very generous
ly until some of the artillerymen
learned to speak French fairly well
and put them wise to the pay we were
getting. Then they thought every
American soldier was a millionaire
and began to soak us in the matter
of prices. I heard a story which illus
trates the price-gouging of Americans
pretty well.
A French soldier went into, a shop
in the village and asked the price of
a souvenir handkerchief.
"Five, francs," said the' shopkeeper.
"Too high," granted the Frenchman
and hexwalked out.
A Canadian soldier went in and
priced the same handkerchief he was
told he could ha,ve it for twenty-live
francB. He left without buying.-
An- American soldier was the next
to call.
How much?" asked the Yankee,'
picking up the handkerchief- which
had been turned down by the French
man and the Canadian.
"Fifty francs,", replied the shop
keeper. without a flicker of an eyelid
"Give me five of them." said the
rank, reaching for his Mullet ..
"Wie village where we were billeted
had short, crooked, narrow streets.
Most of the houses wefe plain,, bare
stru ctu res made of «tone, covered with
plasty-. The roofs were all of tile. In
the center of the* village wag a chlurch,
with a figure of the Virgin Wet In the
front of the building, and a. statue of
Jeanne d'Arc in a little plot lit the
back. There, were always wreaths of
flowers ait the feet of both these iwt
ues.

The houses and stabjea were built
around a courtyard, and the courtyard

but from a standpoint of Sanitation
it cannot be praised.
The convenience Pf this grouping of
buildings about a courtyard Was dem*
onstrated to me one day while calling
on a mademoiselle. ..She and I were
endeavoring to dstabijsh a line of
communication with tfie aid of a
French gramtnar. when her mother
totepped into thcPpirlor &nd announc
ed thftt It was time to milk the cow.
The girl took a bucket from a hook,
opened a door, and there we were
looking right Into the stable where .the
cow stood placidly chewing its cud.
When she had finished milking We re\
turned to the. parlor and resumed our
efforts .to understand* each other. In
consequence of this courtyard ar
rangement the housfes in the village
were constantly filled with whiffs
from .'the cow barn, horse stable, the
piggery and the hen yard.
In that village horses, cows, pigs,
hens and geese were privileged indi
viduals, for they roamed the streets
and alleys at will.
Amusements.
The shopkeepers evidently didn't
believe in advertising, for they had
no.qigns over their places of business.
When I first hit the village I had a
hard time deciding which was a store
and which( was a dwelling.
We were never at a loss for ways
to amuse ourselves. In good weather
we plfiyed baseball or duck-on-a-rock
In a field back of the barracks, and
When it rained we'd get under shelter
and shoot craps or play cards.
After supper we could do as we
pleased sometimes we would call on
a mademoiselle, or if things lagged
we would drift into the Y. M. C. A.
hut, where, they had games of all
sorts, a talkin
materials. Tho£e Y. M. C. A. huts are
certainly a'godsend to the boys over
across. They are doing wonders in the
way of boosting the morale of the
army.
Sometimes tm Sundays we would
procure passes and go to a nearby
city. At first we had some amusing
experiences on these trips because of
our ignorance pt the language.
On one occasion I became lost be-

Soon after we were billeted in the
village we received three months' pay
all in a lump, and maybe we didn't
make things hum for a while. Wine
