THE BOARD SHOULD BORON.

The general funds in the treasury of Grenada
county are exhausted, hence it follows that county
warrants are at a discount. This is hurtful from
several view points. 1t is not a good advertisement
Tor the credit OF the county. 1t imposes the neces-
sity OF taking lessin cash than the amount agreed
on, upon those who get county paper. Grenada
county has had a splendid record of always paying
dollar for dollar to those engaged in its service and
to those who did public work. 1t has been unlike
some OF Its sister Counties whose warrants have
been tossed about. A government, whether it be
national state or c"un y. cannot afford TO pay less
less than ii ;grees to pay. When warrants are at q
discount this is the effect of it. In the final result,
lie County lose. money because of the fact that
those who: build bridges and do other county work

dtseounting warrants when they make their prices
anu add the Iosss in discount, TO the price of the
contract. 1t looks bad for a people for a county,
warrants to be below par. 1t is not right.

Il GOOD BILL TO KILL.

The bill before the legislature exempting GER
tain factories from taxation. such as might be built
prior to January /, 1920, is a good bill. and its pas
sage would mean a great deal for Mississippi, sd
eng much to her wealth and prosperity"
The above excerpt is taken from a lengthy ed
itorial in the Clarion-Ledger of April5 under the
caption, "a Good Bill" To the caption we would
add, ITO Kill" We are unh-sitatingly opposed to
exempting organised capital from taxation. It is
wrong in principle. 1t is a protective tariff in an
other garb. 1t has done more to concentrate wealth
in the hands of a few and to foster trusts than any
other dozen agencies in the land. If factories are
unwilling to cast their lots among us without sharing
in the burdens of government, let them stay away.
The man that buys a little farm or opens up any
other small business must pay taxes and let the
factories do likewise. Why make others bear their
burdens. 1t is robbery by government agency.

AS stated last week, we believe BiIbo was laid the

him. b'lbo claimshe was promptedby good purposes.
Assured!y he acted without discretion and wisdom.

by the exposure. on the contrary an effluvia ha

However, this j. always the case when daylight

home should learn from this affair, is, None out

they cannot scent a political scheme? The bill. on
its face, appears TO be a good one and we believe
in the ultimate, will work we'll but we have 2 sus.

From what Hon. I. u. Sisson writes TO friendsin

Hill PARTY and
FARMER CLASH

Minot, N. D., June 25.-Mr. and Mrs.
Walter Hill, the former the son of J.
J. Hill, and Mr.. and Mrs. Freeman of
st. Paul, travelling in two automobiles
from St. Paul to Lake Mcdonald, near
Kalispell, where they will spend several
weeks outing at Louis w. HIS villa
had a painful experience over in Nc
Henry county while coming from Dew
lis Lake to Minot. AS a result they
were considerably delayed in reaching
this city.
DR.. Freeman and a farmer had an
encounter near Towner and the farmer
had the doctor arrested for driving
his machine over his wheat field. The
doctors machine was turned out Of
the road and had gone over a small
patch Of sowed ground when the farm
er standing nearby hailed him and de-
manded damages. Freeman tried to
reason with him, but the farmer Was
obdurate. He pulled a knife from his
pocket and punctured the tires of the
doctors chariot. The party went back
to Towner to have some repairs made
and were placed under arrest by the
farmer. They finally fixed the matter
up so that they were allowed to pro-
coed on the trip.
The incident caused considerable
amusement and the party were not in
the best of temper when they passed
through Minot They stopped at the
postoffice to inquire for mail, and after
a hurried lunch at one of the restau
rants resumed their trip. Approached
by representatives of the local news
papers they refused to be interviewed
or disclose their identity. The last
seen of the party they were going some
on the road west of the city.

j.. NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST J..
REGULARS Will
| BE SUCCESSFUL
HANsBoROUGH MAKES THAT
PREDICTION AFTER CARE
FULLY SIZING UP SIT.
uATlON.

Grand Forks, N. D., June 25.-'Tn
my judgment" said Senator Hans
brough as he was preparing to leave
for Devils Lake this afternoon, 'the
regular republican ticket will be sue
cessful next Wednesday. There has
been marked change in. the situation
during the past few weeks. A month
ago there was considerable apathy and
where there is apathy there is uncer-
tainity. But now the business men,
including the farmers and are talking
politics. This is a favorable indica-
ton always.
There is but little personal bitter
ness in the campaign and the voting
masses have maintained an open mind.
AS the date Of the primary has come
nearer they have reasoned out the is
sues to be determined All efforts on
the part of those who, for selfish rea-
sons, are seeking the offices to preju-
dice the controlling element in the
contest have failed
Congress is about to adjourn, and
the record Of the responsible majority
is a good one. AS President Taft as
serts, the party has kept its pledges. 1t
has given the country a tariff law that
has not brought distress to anyone, ex-
cept to those who sought to make
political capital by denouncing it.
A good railroad regulation law has
been enacted. A postal savings bank
bill has been passed. Provision has
been made for tariff commission with
very important powers. Two new
states have been added to the sister
hood of integral commemorative. All
this and more that is beneficial in be-
half Of progress has happened even
in the midst of an unusual storm OF
denunciation and Misrepresentation
by democrats and their allies. The
result is that the average citizen can
view the situation in calmness and
with serenity.
THE men who are at the head of
the regular ticket, including c.. A.
Johnson, the candidate for governor,
will be nominated, and this will carry
the rest Of the ticket through. The
ticket. will be elected in the fall, and
North Dakota will once more take her
place in the republican column"

BURKE MAY LOSE
At The PRIMARY
NORTH DAKOTA PARTY MUST
a POLL 5000 VOTES TO GET ON
OFFICIAL BALLOT.

Grand Forks, N. D., June 25-The
democrats are confronted with a serious
proposition in the primary election,
that of getting enough voters to the
polls to insure the nomination of their
candidates so that their names will go
on the ballot in the general fail cleo
ton. In order to get the required
vote they are everywhere doing espe-
cially hard work.
The democrats say the republican
family row" is disrupting the party
more or less in that Industrious repub-
lican candidates are appealing to their
democrat friends and asking them to
vote the republican ballot in the pri-
mary In discussing this situation, the
county committee of Grand Forks, says
in letter to democratic voters:
Governor John Burke will be de-
feated unless democrats get out and
vote the democratic ticket in the pri-
mary election on June 20. The only
way to defeat Burke is to prevent his
nomination. To this end, word Is be-
ing inductriously passed around that
democratic candidates, having no oppo-
sition for nomination. do not need
votes, and friends Of the opposing re-
publican candidates are endeavoring
to have the democrats. take part in
their family row.
"a democrat has no mora right to
vote republican ballot in the primary
election than he has to attend a re-
publican convention as a delegate"
The law requires that the candidates
on the democratic ticket, to be nomi-
mated. must have a total equal to 80
| per cent of the votes cast two years
ago for the party's candidate for secre-
tary of state, which makes about 5000
votes, necessary, 10000 having been
cast for the candidate.

is what the farmers must adopt, ac-

The train as now running has been

Also the work is handled differently,

There are no speeches made in
