Tltc first month of the New Year is 'about over. What have w - done that we should not have done and what have we left undone that we should have done? We have eleven months yet in which to finish the job which we all began enthusiastically four weeks ago which is perhaps plenty of time if we work hard enough at the job. If the police and city antlrorities wiil order the tramps to move .dong out of town and make the orders stick by arresting a few of the loiterers we will soon be rid of these parasites who though able to work, prefer to live off of others and not content w th that ransack houses and destroy property. They congregate where they arc tolerated and they dodge those towns ami cities where they are eut to work. Tell them to vamoose, officers, and if they don’t go, show them the way or shoo them over to the penal farm. New (angled political parties, the non-partisan league, independent organizations and others of that description have about wiped out the old line newspapers in North I’akotn. that great state of the northwest, ac cording to reports tor the 1925 news-" paper directories. One nolic- able fact is that Ute list includes only one stra’gbt out Jeffersonian, democratic paper, the News ami Times at Crafton. We notice with much pleasure, however, that Harry It. Darling, a r"al democrat, a newspaper man of ability, an editor who is fearlem. ami I nows bow to put the "kick” in what he writes, is manager and editor of that paper which is published by Mr. Rudolph P. Luchau. .Mr. Darling for nuirty years did IhcVditor'al work on the Laporte, IndiaiiaXArgits and has written many spei-ial aVliiles f-„, dailies of the middle west. No bet tor man could have been selected to fight the battle of democracy in lh< northwest and we arc sure he will do a service (or his party through Hu I'ohimns of the News and Times Ifiai v ill bi: more than worth while IIhe: a powerful opportunity aud v. il Use it to convince Hie people of lh.it section that their future hope lies it the democratic parly which for more titan a hundred years lias fought the battle of the people.

is Hie multiplb ity ot laws, enacted by congress ami the legislature, each of which seems designed to t ike away some right which made America a great country. We are threatened first by boards and commissions am ' then by a movement to unite thesi . all In to one and combine the power in the hands of the governor. We have so many laws that even the lawyers can't keep track of them and we often violate the law in trying tO| obey some part ot the statute. The , , citjt Star recently sak’ edi- ( torially: — This country was colonized, 'pioneered, organized and made into a mighty state through an individualism that has come to be recognized I as distinctively American. That indivhjualism is threatened by the growth of restrictive and directive legislation. Society, of course cannot survive without collective understanding and obedience to the common welfare: but neither the individual citizen nor the nation can develop and ' prosper Io the fullest without con- ■ sistent freedom of action and With- • out exemption from unnecessary tax ■ burdens. Rational individualism is something to be cherished, especially . in America, where it has reached its i highest and most fruitful developi meat. 1 o —— . twenty years ago today ♦ From the Dally Democrat fllaa ♦ r tit, year* ago thia day ♦ January 29, 1905 was Sunday. — « \ IBig Features Os RADIO Programs Today ( THUnSDAY’S~BEST x RADIO n — •o' WEAR, New York, 4'JZ-M; WCAE. 1(1 Pittsburgh. 4611-M; WGR.
