y PAPER published at Hartford. Conn.
in commenting on the North Dakota
storms says that in the mountain dis
trict the snow drifts in places are seven
ty feet deep. What do you think of
that? Other eastern papers declare in
bold head lines: %"IIouses Entirely

Dakota Worst in Fifty Years. etc. The
fool reporters are a greater damage to
the state than the billiards. are. So far
this winter we have not had a genuine
blizzard like the storms of 1883. 1896.
But then there is time enough for that
yet before spring, as March is consider
ed the month of billiards., but there is
no use of worrying about what might
happen.

THERE have been bills introduced in
the legislature, and then more bills.
Two of these are I'll. b. y and 1873. The
intent OF these bills is to do away with
the publication of the annual report OF
school t%reasurers. What possible excuse
there car be for such action is hard to
see. The publication of these reports is
due the taxpayers of the district in
which the schools are located and are a
safeguard to the people, while the cost
of such publication is a very small item.
These bills should by all means be
promptly killed.

The re-aportionment bill introduced
into the state senate by Senator Steele
would reduce Cavalier county's repre-
sentation in the upper house of our
state legislature to one senator. The
object of the bill is supposed to equalize
the representation and allow for proper
senatorial representation in proportion
with the recent growth of population.
Whatever the eventual outcome of the
measure may be Cavalier county law
makers are likely to take a stand favor
ing the retaining of two representatives
in the state senate from this county.

Good squirming

If the troubles that have been
experienced in the Wall street marts
of late have been the result of the
aggressive policies of President Rooses
welt in his determined efforts to
eradicate high financial corruption
and. as he terms it successful dis
honesty" does not appear that any
serious harm will come of it. On
the contrary the purging that will
result will be of saIutary benefit
not only to the capitalists directly
involved, but to the country at
large.
In HIS Nashville speech. the Pres
ident said:
IF to arouse that type of civic
manhood in our nation it were nee
essary to suffer any temporary com
mercial depression. I should con-
slider the cost but small. All we
have done has been to unearth the
wrong doing. 1t was not the fact
that it was unearthed that did the
damage. AN l did was to turn on
the light, but am not responsible
for what the light showed. 1t is
impossible to cut out cancer with
out making the patient feel for a
few days rather sicker than he felt
before. = = -
Such movement as that In
which we are now engaged is not in
the least undertaken with anyA-vin~
dictive purpose. 1t is undertaken
to cure evils and to prevent their
recurrence"
So. if Roosevelt policies and
Roosevelt execution are making the
high financiers squirm, let them
squirm until they can't squirm any
longer, at least from that cause.

dollar or two or three an acre.
though worth hundreds OF dollars
per acre and rapidly growing more
valuable. The owners paid vfrtu-
ally no tax ON these lands, yet they
were increasing in value all tins
time and were then more valuable
than the farm lands of counties that
were paying practically all the taxes.
For instance. Harrison. Lewis, Ma
rion and other agricultural couu-
ties were assessed at twenty and
thirty dollars an acre and in many
instances higher, while in the inter
Tor counties covered with fine for
ests of timber and underlaid with
precious minerals the land was as
sessed at but a dollar or so an acre,
and in these counties few wealthy
men or corporations were the own
ers of these lands. They were es-
Gaping taxation and growing rich,
while the farmers titled the soil
from early morning until night in
order to save enough to pay their
taxes. In other words, the farmers
were supporting the state and the
hig land owners were growing rich
at their expense.
The Republican party has largely
alredy chnged these fearful in
qualities OF assessments and unjust
discrimination in taxes. The laws
that brought this about are, there
fore, Loyalty supported by those who
have been relieved of an unjust bur-
den. but. are yet the objects of the
bitterness and enimity and hatred
of many, who were made to pay
their share of the taxes. The num-
Der and character of their support
ers impress the party with the fact
that there must be no departure
from them. and the foes of these
laws also must cause the party to be
jealous in guarding these laws, lest
by chance the foes cquire suprem-
acy and then destroy them and
the good work done.
There are reasons why all men in
the party who seek state office
should be unqualifedly committed
to these measures. They must be,
if they expect to be in accord with
the Republican platform.

state Policies and Candidates


Universally accepted that i the
great reform principles of the pres
ent national administration will be
the chief policies of the party for
some years as to to the nation, the
conclusion is readily reached that
tht present state policies of the
Republican party will also obtain
for some years in the future The
principles that the state government
has advocated, legislated and ad-
ministered so successfully the last
three years and which are now up
permost in the sanction of the peo-
pie will be continued. The party
is unalterably committed to them
and the people by their votes have
delegated the party's representatives
to carry out those principles.
Predominant of those policies
and principles are the tax reform
measures, which, in the form of leg
islation, are correcting the abuses
in taxation, which, for many years.
brought hardships to the small
property owner and protected the
large land owners and the corpora
tions.
When the Republican party took
up the commendable work of equal
izing taxation and relieving the
thousands of tan. payers Of the bur
den that properly belonged to the
wealthy and the combinations OF
capital, it did so knowingly and in
spite of the fact that the corpora
tions would strive with might and
main to destroy the party. From the
very inception of this attitude on the
part OF the party the bItterest fight
known to politics began and the
warfare is not ended. Though de-
feated at every turn these combina-
tions of wealth and owners of great
boundaries of the best land in the
state are not reconciled to the jus
tice of the new tax laws and equal
taxation, nor will they lay down
their arms until the people again go
forth in all their might at the polls
to smite them in tins particular rs-

Proper Censorine.

The Morgantown Chronicle may pc
criticized for the following editorial
but reason properly exercised doubt
less leads to the conclusion that the
Chronicle is not far wrong:
Attorney General Bonaparte has
censored the paper known as an ap-
peal to Reason and has or
dered certain of it's plates mutilated.
There is not likely to be wide
spread regret. since papers of its
class are not the kind that breed
law abiding citizens in peaceable
and healthy communities.
