TAKING A REST.

Time and circumstances continue to
reveal President Taft as one of the
most thoroughly human persons-who
have been prominent in public life in
America for many year
While travelling through Massachu-
sets last Sunday he found the heat so
oppressive that he lost all inclination
for speechmaking. In Springfield,
where a brief stop was made. the
people demanded speech. The pres
ident lifted his hand appealingly and
declared: TITS too hot for a speech,
and. besides. it is Sunday"
Mr.. Taft may be regarded as one of
the three most ready speechmakers
before the public at present. The other
two are Colonies Bryan and Roosevelt
neither of whom is before the public
oficially.
Has anyone ever heard OF a day that
as too hot for either Colonel Bryan
n lionel Roosevelt to make speech?
RE Rst conspicuous characteristic of
these men il that they have met all
audiences eagerly and cried for more.

Grafton Record: There was one
feature of the recent meeting of the
North Dakota Press association not
down on the bills. 1t was the appear
ance at the sessions and functions of
the association of the Hon. Andrew
Miller, attorney general of North Da-
kota. The gentleman was not the
special guest of the gathering, but was
on hand with his boom for governor,
congressman or any old thing that he
can grab in the political lottery that
Will be managed by the voters of North
Dakota in June 1912. The attorney
general did not meet with very hear
ty or spontaneous greeting from the
pencil pushers of the state, who are
rapidly acquiring a knowledge of his
methods. He has posed as a republi-
can, progressive republican, during
the past four or five years, but does
not seem to measure up very well to
the real thing. Last year during the
primary campaign, when the progress
sive needed help from every man who
claimed allegiance to the cause, the
Hon. Andrew was not over jealous for
the ticket in the field. He failed to
make single speech for the commit
tee, although requested to do so FREE
quently. He failed to pay his assess
ment to carry on the campaign, and we
have 1t on good authority that he still
neglects to come across" with the
necessary funds. During the fall cam
paign Miller was traitor to the ticket
on which he ran. He refused to aid in
the election of the republican ticket
nominated at the polls by the people,
and neglected and refused to pay any
assessment to the campaign. Nay
more, in the closing hours of the cam
paign, this self-styled republican went
on the stump and advised republicans
to vote for democratic nominee. It
may be that Andrew Miller is bigger
than the republican party and bigger
than the progressive movement within
that party, but we doubt 1t very much
and we believe the people Of North
Dakota have had enough of this man
in public office. The individual who is
not willing to stand with his faction in
the primary and give 1t the benefit Of
his voice, influence and cash is not en-
titled to recognition, and the man, who
having secured nomination In state
wide primary. refuses to either stand
by the nominees on the ticket or re-
sign his nomination, has a very poor
conception of political honor. To be
candid the editor of this paper is OPP
posed to any further political recognl-
ton of Andrew Miller by the republic
can party Of North Dakota.

THE INVESTIGATORS.

The committee appointed at the last
legislative session to Investigate the
state treasury for some years-has
completed it's work. 1t was composed
of Senator Allen and Representatives
Ployhar and Robertson. The report
was not signed by Senator Allen. An
outside accountant was secured to
assist in the investigation.
The report was made public at the
psychological moment" when it would
do the waning fortunes Of former
State Treasurer Bickford the most
good-by creating a back fire, and to
some degree diverting attention from
the scandal in which he is involved.
The report reflects on former Treas
urers McMillin, Peterson and Bickford.
1t is rather voluminous and some
people may disagree with Mr.. Ployhar
in his deductions and conclusions.
The report is of such length that an
analysis Of it in one article would be
too extended. The Forum will call at
tention to some phases of the findings
in three or four articles-the first of
which will probably be printed Mon
day, If the force has time to get around
to it.

A BLOODY RECORD.

When Americans speak Of Italy's
Camorra slightingIy-and charge the
Italians with being a nation of Black
Handers-they should stop and con-
slider the comparative murder figures
OF Italy and the United States.
In the United States there are It's
murders every year for every 1000, 900
inhabitants, while in Italy the record
is only los murders for every 1000, 900
persons.
Germany has only thirteen murders
annually for every 100000 inhabit-
ants, while France has nineteen and
Great Britain twenty-seven.
Why is the percentage of murders in
the United States nearly nine times as
high as in Germany?
The answer is simple.
Germany mas law against carrying
concealed weapons which is enforced
to the letter-and it Furnishes murder
ers with a promptness and severity
'-~AA eSS LL16 DIOOululE
Only 2 per cent OF the murderers in
the United States ever receive the
death penalty.
In England one murderer in every
four is hanged.
Just as long as men and boys are
permitted to wander about in the
United States armed to the teeth. the
murder rate will be high.
The United States can lay no claim
to higher civilization-as long as it
tolerates a wanton destruction of HUI
man life which surpasses the murder
record of Italy.
Why waste any time in this country
discussing international peace and dis
armament-while citizens are killing
each other at such an alarming rate?

TROUBLE AHEAD
FOR ASSESSORS
WHEN TIME COMES FOR LISTING
THE PARTY VOTERS NEXT
YEAR TROUBLE is DUE-NEW
LAW GOES INTO EFFECT NEXT
MARCH.

There are breakers ahead for the
North Dakota assessors in 1912 when
the first effect of the law requiring
the listing of voters according to their
party aff1liation will be seen. This
law, which does not become operative
until next March, when the local as
SCISSORS take up their work, promises to
give the listers of property-and peo-
ple-all kinds of trouble, as it is hardly
to be supposed that all voters will sub
NIT tamely to pre- election declaration
of their party affiliations-especiall
when such declaration must be made
about three months before the date set
for the regular primary election.
This law has been devised to remedy
the situation that exists by reason of
the fact that the 80 per cent feature
of the present primary election law
has been declared null and void. The
purpose of that provision was to keep
the party voters inside the bulwarks
of their own party, preventing them
from hurdling over into the camp of
the opposition and assisting them in
the nomination of their candidates
only afterward to go into the general
ClCGllOA dlA sNOAS4 against SuGH cdnQ1~
dates as they may have assisted in
nominating.
Several plans were proposed for the
approval of the last legislative assem-
bly, to remedy this condition, and the
assessor list plan was finally devised
and adopted. 1t places in the hands OF
the assessors the duty of making a
personal canvass of each and every
male voter in their assessment dis
trict to determine what his politics
are; the lists thus gained to be turned
over to the election officials to be
used by them at the general primary
election to keep party voters in their
own party. The theory is that election
officials would not issue ballots to
voters as indicated by their prior dec
laration to the assessing officer.
The success of this plan will he
watched with considerable interest by
several states in which the same prob
lem is confronted as that which has
been brought up in this state.
