A GOVERNMENT LOTTERY

Years ago the government drove the
Louisiana Lottery out of the country,
but the government itself conducts
one of the most demoralizing lotteries.
Even one of the chief benefciaries of
these land lotteries, Louis w. Hill,
way, whose road as he said, "got it's
full share' of the passenger fares,
condemns the land lottery. Pres. Hill
said the land seekers spent two or
three times what the land was worth;
for hundreds of thousands spent much
cash and time and of nothing what
ever. 1t would be just as well to
rattle off horses, or army mules, or
any thing else, as to rattle Oft land.
The Western Farmer states that E. X.
Streitz, assistant cashier of the Yak
ina Valley Bank, North Yakima, went
to Richland, Idaho, on months va
cation took up claim under the
Carey act, which requires only thirty
days residence, and by the time his
vacation was over he had acquired
little and sold his REIMBURSEMENT for
S15, 600. Secretary Ballinger says he
should never sell power sites, but
merely give permanent lease, with
frequent revaluations (that is the rent
paid by the company holding the
lease should be raised from time to
time as the community made value of
the lease increases).

THE LAND QUESTION

Almost evey nation has differ ent
manner of testing land, and the citi-
zens of each country are apt to think
theirs is the only proper way.
Germany is fast coming to treat the
growth of ground values as public
property on which the owner must pay
an annual rent
In Great Britain there has been no
valuation on land since 1892 but taxes
are still levied on the value of land as
assessed at that remote date. Cities
have been built; mining districts
opened-but the land owners pay only
on the old assessments when they
pay at ALL For in Great Britain land
that brings no annual revenue, pays
no tax at all. 10O,O 900 acres IN priv
ate deer or pheasant park pays no tax.
The campaign just closed in Great
Britain was to determine 1st) whether
the lords may veto a budget, (some-
thing they have not dared to do for
$50 years;) and (2nd) whether land
shall be so taxed as to induce the
owner to use it or sell it. AS the
chancellor of the exchequer says ave
intend that every dog-1n-t the manger
shall pay for his manger.'
In Washington we have the same
issue in the form of a movement start
ed by the Washington State Grange to
retain for the community all future
increases of community made value.
When a man adds to the value of
his land by his labor or the expendi-
ture of his money; the resulting in
crease in the value of the land natur-
ally belongs to the man who by his
industry created that increase. But
when lands (usualy city lots) have
their value doubled and trebled by
improvements paid for by the COM

THE OBJECT OF GOV EMINENT
We have been taught that govern
ments exists in order to secure each
man the enjoyment of his inalienable
right to life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness. This truth may be
restated by saying that the supreme
object Of government is to provide
for every child the best possible
chance for the best possible life.
The right to make the most of himself
is the highest right of each individual.
The denial of an opportunity to grow
is tyranny. Competition, the right
to acquire unlimited property; the
right to consolidate similar business
enterprises; party organization; the
wage system; our common school sys-
tenn; the family; everything is
justified or condemned as it aids or
binders the accomplishment of indi-
vidual perfection. If free dinners
will help children, then they must
have free dinners. This basic prin-
ciple does not settle these perplexing
problems; but it greatly helps us il
we keep it constantly before our
minds. Any proposed change must
show that, taken in it's broad and per-
manent effects, 1t will tend to create
nobler men and wonderland that is
all it will have to show. For instance,
socialism will be approved or con-
demned, not because it attacks certain
forms of private property; but because
it does or does not tend to advance
the development of perfect men and
women The probabilities seem to be
what is now called socialism will be
divided into number of separate pro-
posals, some of which will be adopt

COMPREHENSIVE
ROAD WORK NEEDED
SOME THOROUGH SYSTEM IN
STEAD OF THE PRESENT ANTI
/, ouATED working 1T QUIZ
PLAN is URGED by GEN.cREEL
WOULD BENEFIT EVERYBODY.

Devils Lake Inter Ocean: During the
closing days OF the recent campaign it
was our pleasure to listen to short
address delivered by General Greet, in
which he spoke on the subject of Good
Roads. His remarks, although en-
tirely extemporaneous, were pointed,
full Of information, and worthy Of the
notice of every person interested in
the development of the community in
which we live. He showed the evils
Of the present system of road work,
its time serving method Of working
out taxes, its inevitable soldering on
the part of men doing the work, and
the utter lack of system employed in
apportioning road construction.
At present the chief aim of the
farmer working out road taxes is. to
put in as many hours as possible. The
county doesn't get value received, the
man who works the taxes doesn't give
value received, nobody expects to see
the proper kind Of work done, and the
poor public which must use the roads
continues to swear at road overseers.
The first big trouble with the present
system lies in the fact that the coun-
try doesn't get what it pays for. In
the mere matter OF yards of dirt NOV
ed the country gets woefully cheated.
The fault lies in allowing the taxes
to be worked" General Creel hit the
nail on the head when he said that
road taxes should be paid in money
and the work done under contract paid
for in cash. The result of such a step
would be to get at least a fair amount
OF road surface constructed.
The other big fault in the present
system Mr.. Creel pointed out as aris-
ing from the fact that the road work
of the county, good and bad, was all
done without any definite end in view,
without making the most Of the sep
arate work of separate overseers, and
without working toward a comprehen-
sive system Of roads for the entire
county Today one road overseer will
use hundred dollars worth of labor
dumping earth into slough, and the
grade constructed by him win wealth
er and wash away and become useless
because the adjoining overseer fails
for years to build a grade out from
his side to meet him. Such is q fair
sample Of things today
The remedy suggested is simple and
effective. 1t may be summed UP in
a few words-cash paid for road tax
es and cash paid for road work let by
contract board or county engineer
with authority to systematic and har-
monize all road work.

DAKOTA PIONEER in HONEST
WEIGHTS.

Prof. E. F. Ladd's orders compell-
ing produce handlers of the state to
change their system of selling from
the old measure to the pound weight
plan, becomes effective on Dec L. less
than two weeks of, and with the
coming in of that period one of the
most sweeping orders promulgated by
the states pure food department will
be put in operation. 1t is in line with
the policy that has been adopted by
the state in compelling that full weight
be given-a step in which North Da-
kota is pioneer.
One direct result of the order is
sued by Professor Ladd may be an in
crease in the price per bushel Of prac-
tically all kinds Of produce. Potatoes
heretofore sold in a bushel measure
must under the order weigh right UP
to the sixty-pound mark to be consid-
cred full bushel. and so it is with a
number of other vegetables. There will
be no increase in actual price of the
produce, as the buyer will receive
more per bushel than he did formerly.
AS quoted, however, a slight advance
in the price per bushel will doubtless
result
Shrinkage is another thing that will
have it's effect on the prices of pro-
duce. Potatoes put in in the fall Of
the year, weighing sixty pounds, will
be found to have decreased in weight
by the time spring arrives, by at
least FIVE pounds. This is factor
the handler Of such produce will have
to take into consideration in deter
mining upon his new scale of prices.
Apples, too, will come under the
have to be sold by the pound, as will
a great many other products. 1t will
take some little time for the mer-
chants to get accustomed to the new
order of things, but Commissioner
Ladd is firm in his belief that the con-
ditions resulting from the order will
be entirely beneficial all around
North Dakota, about a year and a
half ago, ordered that weights of the
contents of containers, such as crack
ers, etc., be stamped on the outside Of
the package. AS result of this order
several large concerns withdrew from
the state, refusing to give the true
weight Of their goods preferring tc
lose the territory entirely than so
to do.

MANDAN BRANCH
TO BE FINISHED
N. p. OFFICIAL COMMUNICATED
WELCOMED NEWS LAST
WEEK - WORK WAS
DISCONTINUED.

Mandan, N. D., Nov. 21.-Cfficial
communications from the head officials
of the N. P. states that work on the
north branch will be resumed in the
spring without exception, this glad
news having arrived in the city last
week. Work on this portion of the
railroad extension out of the city was
stopped late in the summer indefinitely,
it will be remembered, and this is the
first mention that has been made in
connection with finishing 1t UP.
Steel is already laid as far as
Sanger and the grade is practically
finished to the present terminal,
which is a few miles above Stanton.
1t will require but a short time and
a comparatively small amount of work
to complete the road and is thought
that train service will be inaugurated
early in the summer
Porter Bros. & Welsh had the ORR
ginal contract for the entire job but
it is not positively known whether
they will finish the railroad as they
have other work which they will
start in the spring. 1t this firm does
not desire to go ahead with the bal
ance of the construction, the job will
be bid upon again and let as original
ly. At any rate Mandan and the north
country are patiently awaiting the
completion of this piece of railroad,
and this assurance is welcomed.

TALKS ON SOCIALISM
Magic City Man Delivers Stirring Ad-
dress on Social and Municipal
Problems.

Arthur LeSueur of Minot delivered
a stirring address last. evening at the
Grand theatre as a number OF the
Grand Free Lecture association course.
The subject of his talk was Ethics of
Business VS.. Ethics of Socialism.
The speaker of the evening made a
plea for woman's suffrage and highly
commended the state wherein the
women enjoyed the powers OF voting
and holding office. He asked the men
of the audience what right had they
to deny their mothers, sisters and
daughters the same privilege that they
enjoyed so much-that of voting and
holding office.
Mr.. LeSueur is firm believer in
the commission form of city govern
ment. He is a member OF the city
commission Of Minot and says that
this policy is working out most sue
cessfully at the magic city.

to be paid to make needed repairs and
the interest was defaulted. The bond
holders ordered the road abandoned
Then the state of Kansas took charge
on the ground that the road had GER
tain obligations to fulfill. If the bond
holders would not operate the line the
state would. The attorney general
took charge and c. 2. Morris was APP
pointed receiver.
Morris took the money on hand and
made needed repairs. Then he traded
the two engines off for one that was
better than either the other two. He
fired" some useless employees, like
conductors. station agents. porters and
trackmen, and under orders from the
state put into effect freight and pas
senger tariffs which were nothing less
than exorbitant
Would Stop Train Any Place.
The one employee, engineer, station
agent, repairman, and everything else,
would stop his train anywhere to pick
up business. If housewife had two
dozen eggs she wanted taken to Blaine
or Westmoreland and traded for calico,
or the farmer wanted a pillow sharp
ened, they tagged the train at the
crossroads, explained what they want
ed done, and the engineer handled the
business and brought the goods back
on the return trip. The road charged
a small fee for the work.
The road was mighty nice and ac-
commodating to every one. II a pas
senger saw a flock of ducks in a pond
beside the right of way and he had a
gun the train would be stopped while
he made few shots. But even with
these accommodations the road did not
pay. One day the receiver called up
the court and explained that the en-
CINE was on a tear and 1t would cost
$50 for repairs and the receiver did
not have the price. The judge told
Norris that the court and all his reti-
nue. was coming over the next week
and hold court and if the engine was
not on hand to make the trip the re-
ceiver would be fined for contempt.
The engine was fixed, but the court
made the trip in a motor car. But
the engine has got into such a bad way
now that it cannot be repaired except
with new one, and the road does not
have the money to make the purchase,
so the receiver will resign and the
road will be closed.

DOMESTIC TROUBLES
A Comedy From the Life Of Our Old
Friend "Davy Jones"
at 5ijou.

The picture programme at The BIZ
jou this week excells anything ever
seen in Fargo. Two big, rafting good
pictures. one acomedy that viii make
the most solemn shed tears Of laughter,
the other a powerful dramatic picture
of the French revolution.
Davy Jones' Domestic Troubles is
the title of the comedy. Davy Is mar
ried to comedy young woman but un
fortunately she is virago and keeps
him in all sorts of hot water. Captain
Bragg appears on the scene and is
much smitten with Annie. Davy con-
cludes TO take French leave and after
an absence Of ten years, being sup
posed dead, the Captain and Annie are
spliced. when the troubles of the Cap
tain begin and he wishes that he could
join Davy who is supposed to be with
the mermaids at the bottom of the
ocean.
Davy, healthy and hearty all this
time runs afoul of the captain and
after swapping experiences they con-
clude to "duck" together, getting on
board ship where they drink their own
health and deliverance.
The Oath and The Man, story OF
the French revolution that is power
full, wonderfully dramatic picture with
a tinge of tragedy will interest all who
see 1t. 1t teaches the fact that man
has no right to execute vengence. but
that the Master of the Universe metes
out terrible justice to those who
assume mis- prerogatives. A pretty
singing act makes the vaudeville feat
ure most attractive one for Thanks
giving week.
