IN RE EXTRACTION.

The recent talk concerning the ar
rest and holding of criminals in one
state for the commission of crimes in
other states, which arose over the al
legged ruling of the states attorney of
Grand Forks county in reference to
criminals passing from one state to
another, is somewhat overdrawn. The
same conditions exist along the bound
aries of every state, and the matter
is fixed by the constitutional princi-
pies of the United States and no state
officer has an iota of authority in the
matter except to act within the con-
stitutional limitations.
state in which he had committed a
crime and his arrest in the state to
which he had fled were matters care
fully considered when the national
constitution was framed. The OBJ
liberation of this principle meant
practically the obliteration of the
states, and for the very reason that
the states were so carefully considered
in their individuality was the reason
the principle of criminal eXtradiction
between the states was so fully recog-
nized.
No state officer has any power to
regulate the process than he has to
regulate interstate commerce or the
collection of internal revenue.

NAMING FINAL PROOF.

The numerous arrests which are be-
ing made of. homesteaders in the
western states who are charged with
fraud in the making of final proofs in
reference to their claims, show that
the government is in earnest in en-
forcing reforms in this particular.
For many years while the public
land went practically begging for
settlers the government was decidedly
lenient in the matter of making proof.
1t fact it was almost regarded as a
sufficient penalty to compel man to
make even a fictitious residence upon
the land.
But when the value of the land be-
came to be known, the government
began to recognize the underlying
principle of homesteads that they were
for the purpose of giving homes and
farms to people who really needed
them. That one prime essential of
their procurement was the conversion
Of the virgin soil into crop producing
farms. Moreover, it was important
that the homesteader should be re-
quired to place sufficient improve
ments upon the land to make it to
his interest to remain and secure the
benefits of the same. This was es-
pecially necessary in order to prevent
the land from passing into the hands
of spectators who would by advanc-
ing the price and the control of the
larger portion of the wild lands.
create land monopoly and defeat the,
very purpose of the government in
giving homes to the poor and worthy
Homesteaders are realizing that they
cannot sleep one night in shack
which would disgrace the name of
home and call it a residence. Neither
can they dig hole in the borders of
a slough and call 1t a we'll. The i'm
provements must be genuine and the
residence actual before they can at
ford to take chances on offering final
proof. The policy will stop the specu-
lation in homesteads and at the same
time will work no hardship upon
those who are bona f1de homesteaders.

INCREASING RAILROAD TAXES.

The state board of equalization
which is now in session at the state
capital will in all probability lay the
foundation for securing the revenue
needed in the rapid development of the
state institutions and the increasing
expenses of the state due to its de-
velopment, by increasing the value of
the assessable property in the state
SO that it will not be far from two
hundred million.
The increase will be equitable dis
: tributed SO that it will work no hard
ship on any class or industry. The
railroads will have the assessment of
their main lines increased $500 per
mile which will add large bulk to
the taxes of the state without in any
manner affecting the farmer. There
is considerable craftsmanship in the
plan of increasing the assessed value
Vi eAC uAdlu lines Willie Tie UTduCucS
are not correspondingly increased.
This can only be made possible by
the building OF. numerous branch lines
in the state.
The keeping down of the assessed
value of the branches will encourage
the building of these lines tn the
farms in the interior and will operate
to the advantage of the men who are
compelled to go a considerable dis
lance from the present railroads to
procure land.
The present increase in valuation
amounts on all the roads in the state
to $5,431 ,499, and adds to the revenues
Of the state in round numbers $780,

THE ARID REGION.

Should the present weather condi-
lions continue for a few days longer
the wheat harvest will be we'll under
way in the entire state. What the
machines will show when the grain is
threshed is matter of some uncer-
tainty, but it is evident that there will
be what may we'll be termed a bum
per crop in many sections, while
others will not be so fortunate, though
getting in nearly every portion of the
entire state good crop.
1t is possible that the better accli-
nation of the grains and the improved
methods of farming whereby the
moisture is almost perfectly conserved
are to some extent responsible for the
prevailing good conditions of the
crops. Certain it is that much of the
value of the rainfall in the past has
been lost because of the inability of
the farmers to properly utilize it.
This has been a rather ideal season
but the weather conditions alone have
not been sufficient to produce the crops
which are found all over the state.
Good farming has had its share in the
results and has been largely instru-
mental in taking North Dakota out of
the arid belt.
The crop conditions should serve as
an object lesson to the people of the
state who have trembled every year in
the fear that drouth would ruin all
their financial prospects for year.
1t should convince them that the thing
to be most dreaded in this state is not
the scarcity of rainfall so much as
good cultivation and the proper pre-
paration of the seed bed.
The farmers should learn that I'M
der normal weather conditions a good
crop can be grown in this state, and
that the money makers as the good
crop seems to be, are not matters of
chance but to great extent are en-
tirely within the control of the farm
ers themselves.

pick and ramified condition which
exist at the present day.
While there have been many changes
indicated by the developments they
have not kept pace with the develop
ments themselves. Especially is this
true in reference to their control by
the government.
In the early history of these institu-
tons they needed little governmental
control and as they have been evolu-
tionized into our modern systems the
reluctance to interfere has not been
abated.
1t is the principle of interfering with
private rights. This doctrine has some
how been strongly developed by the
side of our broadened ideas of individ-
ual liberty, so that it is stronger to-
day than when LETTERS was the judicial
autocrat of England.
Laxity in this particular permits
such failures and robberies as that in
Chicago. The government must in
time so fix the relation of those who
receive the public patronage that such
disasters will be impossible.

PUBLIC RELATIONSHIP.

The failure of the Chicago bank with
thousands of depositors who had their
all placed in the custody of the in
stitution, financially ruined, again calls
attention to the imperative Importance
of more rigid governmental control
+, over the institutions which hold
public confidence relation to the gen.
eral public.
: There has been tendency toward
governmental ownership in this coun-
try and while this is not the accepted
reason for the spread of the doctrine,
1t is clear that the breach of confidence
on the part of those who have been
authorized by law to assume fiduciary
relations with the general public have
not been sufficiently brought under the
regulation of the government.
The trouble lies largely with our
laws. Many of these were principles
established for the regulation of prim-
tive commercial society," For instance,
the generic principles of common car
riers under which the great railroad
systems of the country are regulated
except insofar as the legislative bodies
have broken away from these princi-
pies in the enactment of statutes,
were developed for the regulation of
the earliest stage coaches. So also
have those regulating banking been
to great extent derived from the
relation of the borrower and lender.
1t would be foolish to consider for a
moment that the principles which were
sufficient for the regulation and con-
troll of conditions when they were in
the primitive form indicated would
be sufficient for the control of the COM

ducing region of the world-will con-
tinue to be the worlds bread basket.
At the same time we will be one of
the greatest if not the greatest, fine
stock growing regions in the entire
country.
Under these circumstances it is easy
to see that we will be able to give
the greatest fair in the entire coun-
try. The thing to do is to lay the
foundation at this time. SO that We
can develop as the needs demand.
