WILL IT BE MET AS FAIRLY?

the jamestown Alert says
nder the heading For Harmony an.
The announcement of Alexan-
der Mckenzie not, to be candi-
date for reelection by the state
committee as national republican
committeeman for North Dakota
will attract attention among the
politicians and others interested
in the coming campaign. Mr..
Mckenzie, as even his most ar
dent opponents will admit, has
done much hard work in the years
since statehood in helping to up
build the present fine system OF
state institutions. The fairs of
the state, from infancy to youth,
have been directed without loss
and with good business manage
nsent. Much of the legislation
that has aided the settlement of
the state has been from work of
republican state organization, and
through the foresight Of such
leaders during the last twenty
years, as Mckenzie. He has al
ways been a decided party man,
advocating the theory that the
best results in the building up of
a state or nation can only be
brought about by organization and
well directed, united effort. He
has been the national republic
an committeeman for eight years,
an Office without a salary and the
only state honor or Office he ever
had. He says he is now will
ing to let someone else have the
honor. AS one of its earliest set
tiers, Mr.. Mckenzie takes a great
pride in the progress of the state,
and in the success of the politi-
cal organization which has guild
ed the steps by which the state
has come to it's present scredit-
able position in the union. These
are facts whether generally rec
ognized or not.
In the changing conditions caus-
ed by new settlers and the am
billions of those who have not
had what they think full recog-
milton in party rewards, there has
grown up faction that would
seemingly disrupt the entire or
ganization in needless rush to
accomplish what they attempt.
They would first displace the old
er leaders who have been able
to do much good work, and among
these is Mckenzie the first object
of attack. This is natural pro
cess, but is not always the wisest
one for the people themselves who
have had nothing but good results
in the state management of pub
lie affairs since 1889. But how
ever that may be, Mr.. Mckenzie
steps aside voluntarily and his
action is in line with his policy
in the past, to build up and keep
in effective order, the party or
ganization under which the best
results can be had in the manage
ment OF state affairs. His action
stands for harmony and fairness
in the councils of the organiza-
ton, and is one that all his friends
can well admire him for.
Il is to be hoped that such acts
for good faith and fair play made
by the elder and stronger lead
ers OF the party in the state, will
be met in the same spirit by the
representatives Of the other fac
tons now clamoring for suprem-
acy- If not, there is no telling
what the result to the entire or
ganfzation of the party may be.

What Saves Many Men.

That is a chivalrous and delicate compliment which Emmett Dalton pays to woman in assigning as req son for his marriage to his old sweet heart his need of the help that a good and faithful wife can give to her husband. Men are what they are, very often, by the chance of circumstances. No one can tell what Emmett Dalton might have been under the influence of environ ments different from those that shaped his early career, and It IS certain that many an examplary citizen and "pillar of society" owes his standing to the absence of temp tation and contact to the forces that Dalton encountered in his youth. There is much that is not bad in 8 man who holds woman at her true worth. Emmett Dalton, bride groom, may understand much better than the average citizen how many men have been saved from becom' ing desperadoes through the sus
 taining help of good wives. So
 here's good luck to Emmett and hi'
 bride. Kansas City Star.

it not time that the constitution was amended? And as to 1t being "im- practical" it is working mighty well in Oklahoma, and fully as smart people as the Journal writer, or even the Chicago bankers who have studied banking in the Old World, do not deem it so. It is more prob able that it is selfishness that die tates the decisions expressed.
 The writer states that the change would encourage reckless bank ing" On the contrary, every bank CT would have an interest in the integrity of his neighbor's bank, and instead of protecting by silence or otherwise any unsafe or dishonest conduct, would be ready to take steps to correct or prevent such be fore he suffered loss because of it, Besides that, the government prob ably would make further provisions to do away with opportunities for such wildcat banking as that in New York which brought about the panic last fall.
 The Journal charges that Bryan: stand for insurance of bank deposits | is only a method of fishing foi votes;" that the plan is not feasible and Bryan knows it. There is nc doubt but there are plenty of smar' men that will join with the Journa and the Chicago bankers to prove this true; they claim that the experi ment in Oklahoma is no criterion a compared with the experience O these long-headed bankers, but ont thing is sure, the Oklahoma pls, thus far stands at 100 per cent il perfection as to results, and yol may be sure that the depositors O the one bank that failed in tha state, who immediately got thei money, are not among those wh think the idea ridiculous.

Why The Democrat Opposes Amend
 yuent-

The Democrat is in favor of issu- ing bonds for public improvements, but since the ablest lawyers in the state have said that the amendment as it stands is very dangerous doc ument, and that it would permit abuses that would possibly involve the public finances seriously and work very great hardship on the taxpayers, we have decided against it.
 There is little doubt that the amendment as it stands would per init an excessive issue of bonds, or rather more bonds than could be properly provided for, and the re- suit might be their sale at prices so far below par that the taxpayers, who would ultimately have to pay dollar for dollar, would be inflicted with an unjust burden.
 Another objectionable feature is that those who have paid for thou sands of dollars worth of public improvements already would, under the provisions of this amendment, be required to pay the same rate of taxation as the man who had never paid taxes in any improvement dis trict.
 Those who favor Amendment No. 10 affect to believe that some kind of a satisfactory arrangement could be made to relieve those who have already paid for improvements from this injustice, but they know very we'll that they are simply evading a question that is of serious import to the man who has already carried the burden of improvements for years.
 Strip the amendment of it's im- perfections and The Democrat would gladly support it. We have always stood for public improvements and will continue to do so, but we cannot disregard the protests of those able lawyers who have studied it closely, and whose only purpose in opposing l it now is that it is dangerous to the public welfare. .-Arkans a Demo- orof

in the power of the roads the right to re-establish old rates, or even to make others more to their hiking, the way they exercise their powers wilt be watched with interest. Sup pose, for instance. the roads would make passenger rate of 2 l-2 cents per mile instead of cents, which they can do. The people would at once concede that they were making and effort to be fair, to meet the state half way, and would be more than likely to accept the change without material opposition, and sll will be well. On the other hand, if the roads take advantage of their temporary victory to raise rates to the limit, they will create an opposi- 1 ton that will make much trouble for them when the lawmakers of the state assemble.
 Let's all stand for an honest
 equitable adjustment of this matter as in all others.

 Money is not the only reward for labor. Try doing your neighbor a good turn and note the improvement in your heart action.
 Now does the willy politician culti- vate the farmer in anticipation of the oat crop next fall. Having fathered the crop he will do no more cultivatlng until next election.

Which Horn of the Dilemma ]

One of the strongest arguments against the public ownership of the railroads is that it would result in an organized body of political place holders seeking to control elections.
 This argument has merited in- tiuence upon public sentiment.
 But the railroads of Kansas-and doubtless elsewhere-are trying to effect the same sort of political or ganization among the railroad em- ployees under private, corporate ownership.
 If the people justly fear a bond of political sympathy among a laig ge group who would be working for the government, will they be more tolerant of such political union organized and directed in behalf of selfish corporate power ?-Kansas City Star.

Half century ago the use of lumber averaged apou' 250 feet per capita per year, ana III 1907 the average was 480 feet, show ing that with industrial progress ana the increased prosperity of the peo- pie the demand for wood increases with the individual as well as wlth the growth in population.

Right Kind of Amendment.

The signs of the times indicate that the next legislature will be called upon to consider the resub- mission of the bond issue amend ment.
 Two failures through an improper drafting of the amendment should not discourage those who are de- termined to see the reform carried to successful termination.
 The cities, if they would thrive, must have the right to issue bonds, but the bonds must be issued so that there will be no suspicion of graft or injustice about their administra- tion.
 It is the general opinion that Sena- tor Clarke's argument against the amendment has killed whatever chance it may have had to carry, for his objections are unanswerable.
 Here is suggestion that might be considered:
 Let the bend issue be submitted to the TAXPAYERS. who shall also have the right of voting on the con tract, and let assessments be made on the front foot of land and not on the improvements.
 Let the amendment be specific as to the extent of the issue and the time limit. and consistent in the rate of taxation and interest
 Let US have the bond issue. but let it be straight.
 We have no assurance that If would be under the amendment nov pending. Arkansas Democrat

THE JOURNAL AND BANKING.

Under the head of Wildcat Bank ing" the Kansas City Journal, true to it's custom of looking after the interests of everybody save the com mon people of the country, comes ou. in a great tirade of abuse of the guaranty of bank deposits.
 It quotes liberally from Chicago bankers, "who have made a study of the banking systems of the Old World, as well as of this country" No doubt they have, but do you suppose all this study was in behalf of the people whose money they handle, or in order to find ways and means to make more for them selves out of the deal?
 It says that the denunciations come from the Democrats as well as Republicans. :" Certainly. Who ever suspected that love for party. or country either, for that matter, would cause any of those high- financiers to study to protec. the workingnan from the loss of his savings through some crooked bank official?
 The Journal says it is ridiculous, unjust, unconstitutional and imprac- tical Let's see: If it is 'ridicu- lous" to guarantee that man who intrusts his money to the care of a national bank shall ave it when he wants it, why is 1t not ridic slous to have the government guaranty be- hind every bank note issued by thcse same banks? Is it unjust" that the institutions that profit by the use of the depositor's money should give absolute assurance of its safety? If it is "unconstitutional" to do so. is

 The w. c. T. U. held it's first meeting in September at the M. E church, South, Tuesday, September II, with good attendance. We were fortunate in having as guest of the meeting Mrs. Jackson of Atlanta, Tex.
 The meeting opened by devotion al service led by Mrs. Kelly, the president. Mrs. Jackson gave us an inspiring address on the Badge of the Order, which is a bow of white ribbon, which all members are expected to wear "as symbol of loyalty to humanity and to God. " The rest of the meeting was devoted to the business of the order. After some discussion it was decided to meet hereafter each week at o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
 During this discussion the mem bers showed their appreciation and enjoyment of the meeting and ex- pressed regret at the absence ot other members and an earnest desire for their presence at the next meet ing, September 8, at the same church. Pastors of the various churches are earnestly invited to par, ticipate in this meeting.
