In commenting upon the changes
that have come about in the field of
agriculture, it Is observed that with
the approved methods and nnachin-
cry now available, it is possible for
a North Dakota farmer in year to
raise enough wheat to feed LOCO
persons for year. This is interest.
ing in view of some Of the recent
efforts to prove that inventors and
manufacturers Of harvesting machin-
cry and modern improvements were
oppressors of the farmer, and should
be eliminated, along with lot OF
other undesirable influences. The
increase in the productive ability OF
the farmer In these days would moi
indicate that the men and institu-
lions that have enabled him to pro
duce greater and more profitable
crops were exactly undesirable, from
the farmers standpoint.

So far as the national banks are
concerned, the bank deposits of Okla
homa will not be insured unless the
banks desire to forfeit their right
to do business under the national
banking act. The whole matter of
the insurance of bank deposits is a
thing Of recent discussion, and Okla
homa Is the first state to adopt it in
practice. 1t is opposed by large
element of the bankers in the coun-
try on the ground that it merely in
sures the deposits of unsafe. institu-
tons at the expense of safely con-
ducted banks, and that it deprives
sound institutions of the public cred
it and approval of which they arc
entitled because of honesty, probity
and wise business methods. It is
supported on the ground that it will
prevent panics, by preventing the
withdrawal of deposits in times of
financial alarm. The government
holds, however, that the states can
not impose requirements on national
banks organized under a federal
law, and as far as these institutions
are concerned, we shall have no OPP
portunity to see how the insurance
law works, as it will be confined to
state institutions. f..

The wealth Of North Dakota is
growing rapidly, although the total
assessed valuation of the state does
not by any means represent the total
wealth, since property is assessed at
figure variousIy estimated from IS
to 10 per cent Of It's value. The
growth Of the state, however, can be
indicated by the increases in the as
sessed valuation over the total Of
ten and fifteen years ago. In the
early nineties, the total assessed val
uation was less than a hundred mill
lion. This figure has been growing
until the total figures at the close of
the present session will be some
thing like 10000, 900. And this
total Is an increase of nearly
hundred million dollars In the past
six years. Total values in the state
have nearly double within easy rec
objection. They will double again
In the next twenty years at the pres
ent gradual rate Of increase. The
present valuation, based on a pro-
portion Of the real value OF property
affords funds enough for the wan.

QUICK WORK
HORSE THIEF CAPTURED AND
SENT TO PENlTENTlARY IN
SHORT TIME. ,@.,.

Sunday night, August g.. Joseph Mil
Ter stole from the farm of Victor Moy-
nier in Gibbs township, a mare, worth
about $3.50. The owner Immediately
informed Sheriff MccGillis. Monday
afternoon postal cards containing a
description of the thief and the horse
were sent all over the state. A re-
ward of $100 was also offered by Nc
Gillis for the capture of the thief.
Thursday Sheriff J. c. Drew Of Ellen
dale spotted the man. He came into
town and purchased a supply Of bo-
logna and crackers A. III
The sheriff. got an auto and shot
gun and started after him. The auto
frightened the horse and he kept out
of range Of the gun. Three shots
were fired at the rider, but he kept on.
After an eighteen mile chase the rider
abandoned the horse and took to the
timber along a creek, bue he was sur
rounded and captured by the men in
the auto. 1t was a clever capture.
F.; Sheriff McGillis was notified, and
he left Friday and returned satur-
day night with his prisoner He plead
ed guilty of grand larceny before
Judge Winchester, and was sentenced
to the penitentiary for three years
Monday. Sheriff McGiIlis at once
took him to the penitentiary to begin
serving his sentence. So .5.5
This was an effective and quick
piece of work. The thief was captur-
ed and landed in the pen just one
week from the commission Of the
crime. If there was as prompt work
in all criminal cases as In this it
would to some degree check the num-
Der OF crimes. Punishment that is
swift and sure deters from crime more
than any other agency. The Mclean
county commissioners at their last
meeting authorized a standing re-
ward of $3.50 for the capture Of these
thieves.

saction of the states business, keeps
debt limits down far below what
they would be at real value basis,
and forces the people to be in a
slight measure economical. If the
valuation were so largely increased
that big increases in taxes and bond
issues were possible, we are not sure
but advantage would be taken of the
condition, to the questionable bene'
fit of the state and the several com.
munities. There may be some argu-
ments in favor of real value assess
ment but there are some against it
that are worthy of careful considera-
ton.

THE PASSING OF PUBLIC MEN

THE PASSING OF PUBLIC MEN.
There will be cheer in the hearts
of the "progressives" at the election
results Of the past few days, and
the other political indications of
changes in the membership of the
senate. The primary election in
Kansas brings to the senate Bristow,
who was formerly ASSISTANT post
master general, instead of Long. Mr..
Long has been recognized as one of
the senate conservatives, and the
people just at the present time are
not in favor of conservatism.
In Illinois, Hopkins will be replac-
ed by Foss, thus eliminating another
conservative The death of Allison
will probably bring Cummins to the
senate, and Cummins is radical of
the La Toilette type. In North Da-
kota Senator Hansbrough, one of
the old senators, is defeated for re-
election by a state primary, and
there are signs that the next men,
bership will find many of the old
members missing.
It is not surprising that so many
changes have been and will be made.
The observers of political tenden-
cies cannot have failed to be i'm
pressed with dissatisfaction with ex-
listing conditions and good many
existing statesmen. Fairly or unfair
ly, a sentiment has been created
against public men who have been
long in Office and who have chung to
old traditions and practices. This
sentiment is reflected in the primary
elections that have been held, and
will no doubt be reflected by the
new members of the senate from
the radical states.
How beneficial will be the states
manship of the men who have re-
placed the old members remains tt
be seen. It is the people
who will have to abide the
result, good or evil. We have fell
that the business interests of the
country were more in need of ar
era Of rest-that the need now IL
more for restoration Of confidence
in our enterprises than for more
Legislation. Indeed, Judge Taft ex
presses this belief and in that hi
has the support Of the general bust
| ness interests of the country. W.
are harvesting good crop, there art
wide fields for further development
and with sensible care on the par

WORK begun ON
CHlCAGO'S SUBWAY

Chicago, Aug. 10.-Real work upon
subway plans for Chicago has begun,
preparatory work, however, for the
subway task is huge one, involving
the charting of every water
and gas pipe, every telephone, tele-
graph, light and signal wire conduit
in the down town district. OF these
the city now has no record whatever,
and as teh network OF these pipes
and conduits makes almost solid
mesh at the street intersections. SO
that one can walk across on them
when the paving is torn up, this phase
OF the preparatory work Is intricate
and daunting. Meanwhile the subways
OF eastern and European cities are
being investigated by three experts
who will seek to point out the mis-
takes made elsewhere, as we'll as thu
admirable features. BY this research
work Chicago expects to excel New
York in subway building and avoid
the plumbers which already are troub-
ling Manhattan. It IL expected that all
the pipes and wires now in the streets
WIN be ultimately placed in the sub
way, the immediate need for which
Us for the relief OF traffic congestion.
The streets down town have become
badly oyercrowded, and at the pres
ent rate OF population growth the con-
ditions In ten years viii be intolera-
bic without an underground system
OF rapid transit.

ever be that to learn music, sculp-

measure be answered. Or rather the
necessity for the inquiry will in a
few years vanish and the appeal to

root in the American heart. Speak
