city of Minot live in the fifth ward:
among them are Major Murphy
G. A. johnson, r. A. Nestos, A.
j Brunner, Joseph Roach, Martin
johnson, George McGee, Alfred
Blaisdell, Judge Goss and a num-
Der of others.
1t is also very strange yet very
amusing coincidence that in the
fifth ward of Minot NOT ONE
straight republican ticket was
cast. If there had been just one
straight ballot, of course, all could
have claimed it, but the absence
of straight ballots in a ward where
the leading "vote 'er straight
republicans live, is surely fine
commentary on stand-patism. And
when the fellows enumerated
above won't stand pat who in the
devil will?

rapidly. Mr.. Benson called on
the Democrat, and in talking over
the oil excitement which existed
in Ryder a year ago, he stated
that it was evident that the par
ties who leased several thousand
acres in that vicinity last year
still mean business: as they have
paid up their leases for another
year. 1t is supposed that the
Standard Oil company is behind
the oil leases in the Ryder country
as the parties who made the
origional leases are from Min
neapolis and have no connection
with local companies. Several
thousand acres are under lease
of 25 cents per acre a year.

Repea1 Old Laws

Instead of passing large num-
Der of bills-which are Unnecessary
and are introduced only because
some members want to make a
record-the next legisl ture
will gain the approval of the
people fit will repeal number
of worthless laws which now en-.
cumber The statutes says the Forum
They could simplify others which
are hardly Ineligible to the SUI
preme court.
Much of the ambiguity of the
present laws may be due to the
system of making amendments by
referring only to the section to be
amended--ma making it necessary
for one wanting to look up Ger
tain law to follow its history
through a half dozen or more ses-
sions of the Legislature. By re-
pealing the old statute and pass
ing a new one on the same subject
amendment is desired
the. law could BE- found in one
place when wanted and the size Of
the code would be reduced.

Thinks This Good Enough

Since A. T. Danielson has re-
turned from the coast, he has had
many questions asked him about
the country. He says a person
should stay right here if he wants
to make money. Out there you
are sure of making only small
income each year, while here you
will have a failure once in while
but not often if farming is done
properly and diversified farming
followed. All trades are over
crowded in the west, and Mr.. Dan
ielson advices all to stay in North
Dakota.

0pcn Winter Pre-
dicted By Trapper
Little Preparations Have Been Made
By the Fur Bearing Animals
For the Winter

Roscoe Davenport, one of the
old time trappers who has been
doing an extensive trappieg busi-
ness down in Sargent county ever.
since the season opened this fall,
predicts that this section of the
country is due for a mild and open
winter. According to Mr.. Daven-
port, muskrats, skunks, mink and
other fur bearing animals have
made little preparation for winter,
which the trapper says, is a sub
stantial proof that the winter
will not be severe. Mr.. Daven.
port has met with good success in
the trapping business and since
the season opened in November,
captured over one hundred and
twenty five skunks, and where he
had to dig them out, had only to
go down a few inches below the
surface. In case the winter was to
be severe, they say that animals
that burrow in the ground will go
down deep for protection. If these
predictions are true, and the
weather SO far has been in line
with them, the worry witch has
been existing among the farmers
who have several head of stock to
care for, and with little to feed
them, will be greatly relieved

The basket ball teams could not
practice after school last Monday
and Tuesday on account of the
hall being used as a court room.
Miss Vesta Hubbell will not be
back here after Christmas az she
will attend the new academy in
Wilton. During the present term
of school Vesta has at all times
been a model student and will be
greatly missed by her teachers and
schoolmates.
The county examinations are

and writing, and the pupils in the
sixth grade took the one in physi-
ology.

menship, spelling. bookkeeping

tions in January.

the river became too dangerous to
cross on account of floating Ice.
During the two and a half months
previous there was a train load of
cattle shipped from this station on
an average Of once week
Practically all the cattle from
Mercer and Oliver counties were
sent this way. This is considered
a good average for what is sup,
posed to be only wheat growing
country. The farmers believe in
diversified farming.

Millionaire EvadcS
His Legal Taxes
He Leaves the Burden to be Borne
by the Poorer Man While he
Moves Away

A. j. Mock, writing in the Dec
ember number of the American
Magazine about the archaic per-
sonal property tax laws, in this
country points out that while the
millionaire eau jugglehis affairs as
he pleases and can take up his
legal residence in New Jersy, and
by either method evade his legal
taxes and leave the burden to be
borne by the poorer man the law
additionally makes it possible for
the large mercantile house to
escape taxation entirely while the
small retailer has to pay up on
what stock is assessed and can
barely earn a living. This is the
story Of how things work:
You have $4,000 to start a
grocery store with. First you
rent your store re member that.
You do not buy site for you can
not afford it. Your stock costs,
say, $4,000, and you begin bust
ness. When the assessor comes
in, he finds you in about this
shane-stock. perhaps $4,000,
bank balance maybe 5000. You
carry some accounts, of course,
and also buy little on time; so,
roughly, your debts and credits
offset. You are assessed at So,
2OO and if there is any way of
escape for you, | do not know
what it is.
Starting with s5oo,ooo, how
ever, you buy your site-not rent
it. Then, with the real estate as
security, you borrow two-thirds of
it's value and let the debt stand
permanently against the business.
Then when the assessor comes,
you are always able to show a
debt in excess of your credits and
stock values; and you get off with
out a cent of taxes.
more than that, with proper
management you could make a
little something Borrowing at 4
per cent, you could invest the
money in your business at 5 per
cent at least, so you would have l
per cent clear profit. Then your
real estate would be appreciatipg
in value about 3 per cent year,
and you would have that too. The
law gives you lift both going
and coming. You escape taxation
and make money to boot"
