Letter to Mr.. E. H. Mcclure.
Hillsboro, OhOi,

Dear Sir: Clothing is just like paint.
1t fits or 1t don't it wears or 1t don't;
turns weather and water or not !; and
goes out of fashion.
What do we wear clothes for? Did
you ever think of 1t ? Different persons
have different reasons, no doubt, but
one paints Devoe for beauty, to be in
the fashion, and keep.out water.
Fashion says paint we all paint.
There is beauty In paint we paint a
good deal for that. And buildings are
costly and fashionable; put-on a
waterproof two or three coats of
paint, and your buildings last as long
as you keepIthem dry. 1t cost nothing
to paint ;lit costs your buildings not
to.
Devoe is the paint that lasts; disap-
pointing paints are the paints that
cost.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.,
New York and Chicago.
The Enterprise Planning Mills Co.
sells our paint.

Taxation Of Money.

I don't really think money is thing you
can tax or that you ought to tax; for II
10 the most improbable thing men have.
and yet everybody wants II. In itself II
yields nothing. I would not tax money
for the same reason that would tax
dogs. I think most communities like to
have money come in. They tax the dogs
to keep them out. The cash on hand
that banks hold ought not to be taxed.
I don't see any object in taxing money.
mere government money. paper repre-
ssnting the debt the government owes
you. II ought not TO be taxed.
Home Rule In Taxation.
I believe home rule In taxation 10 the
greatest subject we have. ] think more
depends on II than mere Justice to the
taxpayer. That Is the moral part Of the
taxation subject What you are really
discussing Is bigger than that At the
bottom of the taxation question IL the
one that IL going to solve the labor prob

CAN NOT WHITEWASH.

According to the reports OF the
Evening Times correspondent at Bis
marck. the late state printing graft
in which certain newspapers and
printing concerns in the state includ-
ig the Grand Forks Herald, We're
parties, was given an airing in the
house recently and no mincing of mat
tiers was made in the charges that the
state had been robbed by the combine.
That there is a desire among the
friends of the parties concerned in the
scandal to hush it up and brazenly say
to the taxpayers OF the state in the
language of the great New York cor
ruptionist Tweed, when caught, What
are you doing to do about it," can
not be doubted But the stencil
smells unto heaven and it will take
more than whitewash to smother the
demands OF the public for an investi-
SdtlOn by lue legislature ana FeStl-
tuition by the grafters of the funds
Illegally taken from the public treas
ury. The parties to the scandal can
not hide safely behind the claim that
the matter is old and is in consequence
barred by the statute of limitations.
The people do not recognize technical
tiles as defense when they 1avebeen
plundered.
1t has been charged on the floor
of the house that the printing graft
contract can and will be produced for
the enlightment of any committee or
other body created by the legislature
to investigate and report upon the
same, and in the face of this charge
and offer to prove the guilt of the
parties it will be difficult for the leg
islature to get away from the investi-
cation without convincing the public
that it is an attempt to whitewash the
perpetrators of the crime.

SENSATIONAL PRIMARIES.

The position of the Evening Times
on the matter of primary election has
been stated so often that it hardly
seems necessary that it be repeated.
Yet there are some features of the
question which will come before the
legislature at Bismarck which deserve
attention, and need to be urged strong
ly upon the consideration of those
who are formulating the law which
will control the selection of candidates
for public positions in this state dur
ing the next few years. 1t is we'll
to consider that the primary election
idea is matter of evolution and that
as the public become more familiar
with its workings it will naturally
find features to be revised but not OBJ
liberated.
The question to which the members
of the present legislature should ad-
lllCluSclNeS ulOIe SERIOUSLY IMAM
any other perhaps is the selection of
candidates for United States senate
by the people. 1t is useless to talk
of the direct election of these Off
Gals by the people until the national
constitution is changed, and that is
far in the future, largely because the
older states are SO thoroughly ground
ed in a reverence for established Gus
toms and are not SO willing to break
away from traditions as are the states
of the more aggressive and probably
more progressive west.
The only way that an approach can
be made to this principle is the Sc
lection of candidates for this Office at
the primary election and the fixing
of the conditions under which the
members of the legislature are elected
SO that no man may refuse to vote for
the choice Of the people whether of his
pOHliCdl party VI HUI, wien lQe actual
election is held in the legislature.
During the nearly century and
quarter of our existence as nation
under the constitution we have grown
away from the original idea that the
members of the upper branch of the
national congress were representa-
tives not of the people but of the SOW
ereign states. Now they more closely
represent the people than do the men,
bers of the American house of COM
mons. They are not elected SO often
and are not forced by the conditions
which have come as one of the disad-
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1907-02-11

vantages of free government, to at
least compromise their power as legis-
lators in order that they may be in
position to secure reelection.
But they are the servants OF the
people none the less. And while the
Evening Times has no patience with
that class of political pessimists who
claim to believe that every man who
occupies representative position in
the government of the state and nation
is corrupt and susceptible to influ-
ences which would have no effect upon
the people from whom he came and
of whom he is one, it does believe in
the basic principle of our political
life that the majority should rule. This
being true, and coupled with the other
now accepted proposition that the SEN
ators are representative of the people
of the state, nothing could be fairer
than that they should by majority
vote select the man whom they desire
to have represent them in the highest
law making body in the nation.
Just what is the best course to pur-
sue in reference to the selection OF
candidates for the United States SEN
ate by the people of the state at the
primary election is not, so far as this
article is concerned, matter OF dis
cussion. 1t would seem however that
the provisions of the White bill now
pending in the house do not meet the
conditions with sufficient energy. 1t
would seem that a provision requiring
the members of the legislature to be
bound by the majority of their party
at the polls would be advisable.
But no matter what the course,
there should be no hesitancy about
giving the electorate of the state the
right to express their preference for
candidates for the United States SEN
ate.

larger vote against 1t than any other
measure Of the day. There were IS
ayes, &c nays and 81 absent and not
voting. The bill cuts out a source of
information which Is OF value to the
tax payers and at the same time in
jures the country newspapers.

and gives the states attorney a con-
tingent fund to be used In the inves-
tigation and preparation of cases in
which crime is supposed to have been
committed. There were 81 ayes and
% nays on the roll call.
No. 1872 provided for the care of
children in institutions and the reim-
bursement of the expenses of the same
from the county. 1t passed without
opposition.
Senate Work.
The senate ways and means commit
tee today introduced bill to raise the
salaries of all state officers. 1t is
understood that majority of the SEN
ators and some influential house men,
bers have agreed to support the bill.
1t will doubtless pass the senate. The
salaries privided by the bill are gover-
nor, $4,000; attorney general, $4,000;
secretary Of state, auditor, treasurer
and commissioners of agriculture and
insurance $500 each; state bank ex-
aminer, $4,000 and $500 for each of
four deputies; superintendent of pub
lie instruction. $4,000 and $1,000 for
travelling expenses; the bill requires
that all state officers shall reside at
the seat of government.
The senate killed H. B. No. 10 and
s. B. Nos. IS, IA, 1862, and 16S were
recommended to pass. s. B. No. IS
was recommitted to the Judiciary conf
mittee. Senator Cashel introduced a
new pure seed bill to substitute sera-
tie bill No. 107 which he introduced
earlier in the session and he moved
to recall the latter bill from the coln-
mittee and it's further consideration
be indefinitely postponed. Mr. Cashel
ly objected to by seedmen both IN
this state and out of it and that the
new bill was satisfactory to them and
to Prof. Bolley of the agricultural COL
lege who was interested in the first
measure. Senator Simpson thought
that if the first bill was Objectionable
to the seedmen that might be very
good reason for passing it and moved
that both the old and new bills be
left with the committee, which motion
was adopted.
The senate concurred in a house
resolution to appoint a committee to
arrange program for the proper OBJ
servance of Lincoln's birthday.
The senate passed S. B. No. % pro-
vided for loaning permanent school
money on cultivated farm lands at 5
per cent interest in amounts not ex-
ceeding one-third the value of the land.
S. B. No. 81, new pure food bill pro-
hibiting the use of aduluterants and
