STATE BUYS COUNTY BONDS
Issue of $4,000 for Foster County
Court House Purchased by the Gus
todians Of the State School Fund.-
Money Has Been Received by the
County Officials.

Darlington, Sept. 18.-The custod-
ians of the state school fund have
purchased the $4,000 Foster county
court house bond issue and a war
rant was received for that amount
by Auditor Burnham. The order was
turned owed to Treasurer Rusk and
deposited to the credit of the county.
The money was sent in one warrant
and the order looked good in more
ways than one to those who saw it.
1t is possible that now the money
has been received for the bonds liti-
cation seeking to enjoln the county
commissioners from using the money
for the purposes for which it was
voted will be dropped. The state of
North Dakota, through its legal de-
partment, has passed on the legality
of the bonds and raised no question
as to their being properly issued:
Any suits now would require that
the state be a party to the defense,
The matter was presented to the
state on behalf of the county by
States Attorney Craven. j.. They were
Immediately accepted and the time
since has been consumed in arrang-
ing the details of the issue.

treasury, was the author of a Gen.
trail bank which went into existence
under a twenty years charter in
1871. 1t was allowed to die in 1911,
but new institution based upon the
same principles was established in
1916, the democrats, who had opposed
the first one, being in favor of the
second. Jackson defeated the pro-
ject to extend the charter Of the bank
Of 1916, and it died at the expiration
of its patent in 1886. That bank,
however, had some monopolistic
features which are not in the plan
outlined by Chairman Vreeland. It's
dividends are limited to 4 per cent,
and the balance on it's earnings goes
into the treasury of the United States.
England, France, Germany, Holland
and other European countries have
institutions on somewhat similar
lines to those which appear in the
Vreeland plan. Here is a subject to
which the country will be compelled
to give some attention when Con-
gress meets.

some notes and information of gen.

lege has received numerous COM
plants from different parts of the
state particularly near Stump Lake,
and also personal inspection has
noted ravages of grasshoppers in
many places. Prof. Waldron says:
The destruction is caused by
three or four native species which
have become unusually numerous.
have as yet found no specimens. of
the Rocky Mountain locust. AS
some Of these species lay their eggs
in grassy lands and along road sides
it is pretty difficult to destroy them.
Wherever the eggs are laid In the
stubble 1t is simple matter by disc.
ing or plowing to dispose OF them.
Wherever the grasshoppers are un-
usually numerous the farmers should
notice the places where the eggs are
being laid and wherever possible de-,
stroy them. either this fall Or very
early in the spring. 4,tf:'s =" b.

the wrists taut. is to forget that Scot
lands bonnie swing cannot be grated
on to an anatomy which was nodded
by the short swing of the baseball bat.
"President Taft's real game is base
ball. Style is dignity. and dignity is
style. and President Taft never does
the things on the links that make so
many look ridiculous. One thing 1t is
quite apparent he has mastered-that
is, to keep the head still when making
a shot. President Taft stands very
straight as he makes his shots. His
club does not go back so very far. but
he goes right through the ball. and If
he cared anything about frills he could
finish in the approved style. But. hav-
ing gone through the ball. he closes
the discussion and gives no final pose.
"President Taft never gets tired. He
was round the Myopia links in less
than an hour and half. That's good
going. The president can keep his
place on any green in the world. how
ever expert the golfers. That can be
banked upon. He moves forward at al

GOATS AS TRAIL MAKERS.

Thousands Of Them Clearing Out Un-
derbrush Of . California Forest.
The brush eating instinct Of Ango.
ra goats is being successfully demon
strated on the Lassen national forest
in California, where they are cutting
trails for fire guards through the
brushy areas on the slopes of the
mountains.
The animals. which number 5000.
have been divided into two bands and
under the care of the herders are
grazed within certain we'll defined
areas. so that their work may be con-
centrated on the brush within those
limits. The result is that they have
practically killed nearly all the brush
in the course either by eating 1t up
entirely or by barking. as in the case
Of the heavy manzanita bushes. At
the beginning Of the experiment there
was some doubt as to the goats will
ingness to eat the manzanita, but it
has been found that where there is
little else they will just as readily at
tack It as any other bushes.
The grazing season was so late this
year on the Lassen forest that the
goats did not begin operations until
about the middle of June. but since
then they have made rapid progress.
and the result promises to be a sue
cess from every point Of view. The
trails will first be opened and then
kept free of sprouts by the goats, saw
ing the government considerable labor
in cutting them out by hand. as has
been done heretofore. while the brushy
forage which otherwise would have
been wasted will support 5000 goats
very comfortably.

st. Louis Democrat: The

Gus consideration. Mr. Vreeland is

Banking and Currency. He was re-
gently appointed to that post, in place
of Fowler of New Jersey, who held it
for several terms. The view which
he expresses seems to find favor with
a majority of the members of the
committee. .-...
This is a live question just now. A
monetary commission was appointed
"a year ago to study the entire quest

+ ASSOCIATED PRESS
TAFT AND THE TARIFF.

President Taft does not take the
view that the Payne tariff bill is
perfect, and at the same time he
does not believe the conditions ex-
listing at the time of the passage of
the tariff bill justified republicans in
voting against the bill, nor does he
believe they ought to be glorified for
having done so. The president as
the head of the republican party in
the country believes that while repre-
sentatives have the personal right to
act as they choose in matters of the
kind, are not entitled to be held as
more worthy of praise than the re-
publicans. who accepted the bill as
the best that could be passed, and
will work for bill that may be still
better in the future.
The president gave some pretty
plain talk in his discussion of this
matter in Minnesota, where there had
been a movement on the part Of
some republicans and democrats to
hold a public reception to indorse
the 'insurgent" members of the
house and senate who voted against
the tariff bill. 1t has been expected
that in some of his western speeches
the president would deal with the
matter of the tariff and he has done
so more vigorously and plainly than
was expected in good many quar-
tiers. The president is square talk
er, as was evidenced in his speeches
during his campaign on questions
that were before the people. He is
a republican and believes that party
government is necessary. Individual
action by all members of the congress
without regard to party, would mean
that no definite policies could be
enacted sinto law. There would be
as many separate views as there are
members of congress.
Republicans ought to work as a
party for the best good of the whole
country taking all interests and in
dustries into consideration. To say
that perfection has not been reached
is not to say that a party has failed
to do its duty. The tariff is a mat
ter affecting the whole country and
there could be no such thing as a
bill that would exactly suit all parts
of the whole country. The president
believes that the best tariff bill was
obtained that was possible under
existing circumstances, and he does
not believe in party endorsement of
those who voted against the bill, even
though they may have felt justified
in doing so.
