No Money Market Bugaboo.

There Is no money market bugaboo this
season. One OF our great banks fthe
Fourth NationaD summarizes that phase
of the situation in this wise: There will
be plenty of money for mercantile bor
rowers this fall. but it is reasonable to
expect a further hardening in rates for
both time loans and commercial paper.
which. under the circumstances. is per
fectly natural Throughout the year
money rates have ruled abnormally low.
and there has been a decided falling Off
in the demand from mercantile borrow
ers. Now general trade is quickening, and
money Is becoming everywhere npre
actively employed. This movement again
reflects progressive recovery in bust
ness AFFAIRS. And the same authority
adds: The disposition is to push har-
vesting operations with great vigor, in
an effort to market the crops as soon
as possible. Conditions in the south are
extremely favorable, and the banks of
that section are in a very strong position.
Present indications point to another enor-
nous cotton crop, and since that crop
makes exchange faster than any other
crop raised. Europe will have to make
heavy remittances for its purchases of
this staple"
In almost every presidential year Au-
gust and September have been huoyant
stock market months.

yelt said it or not. If it were not
true, the republican party would be
in bad way. If its future depended
upon one man. no matter what his
eminence or section, or upon small
group of men, no matter what their
eminence or local "pull," it would be
ready for it's grave clothes. For
whenever a political party in this
country confesses to have arrived at
the one.man stage, 1t will also con-
fess that it has outiived its usefulness
A candidate nominated upon any such
confession would be annihiliated at
the polls.
OF course progress is going to be
successful. Nobody of consequence
is resisting it. Not since George
Washington took the helm has the
country refrigerated, or for a day
stood still. We made progress even
while the civil war was on; and we
came out Of that terrible ordeal ad-
vanced as nation beyond any mark
We had previously set.
The question is not progress, but
the route and the speed. The driver
who flourishes his snake lash, and
sends his team along like mad,
makes progress only to the point
where his recklessness invites smash
Real progress is made by the man
on the box who knows the road, the
construction of the coach, the mettle
of his nags, and the load he is carry
ing. BY keeping his four wheels on
the ground and steadily turning, he
gets there. The trip may lack ex.
element, and be without note as to
time, but there will be no tariff for
repairs. At the end of the Journey
everything and everybody will be
found right side up and in good
shape.
The argument advanced for keep
ing Mr.. Taft on the box is based up
on the way he has so far handled the
ribons. His friends think he has
done we'll. There has been no loud
popping of the whip. no swearing at
the horses, no hair-raising speed at
sharp turns in the road. But he has
made stations in good time, kept
the company in the main In spirits,
and answered questions in pleasant
humor. Why take him down? What
If one or two Of the passengers would
like a little more ginger in the drive?
Ginger is all very we'll, but too much
in a man on the box might wreck
the enterprise. Safety is a better
policy than speed in a long run with
great values at stake.

The election of officers of the First

During the latter part Of January
there was considerable discussion in
insurance circles as to the point the
company would choose for a head Of
flee. A number Of towns in South
Dakota were working hard to have
the DIRECTORATE establish home Offices
In their respective communities. The
matter was fought out In the meet
ing of the directors and finally Pierre
was chosen and Judge L. E. Gatiy
Of that city elected to the presiden-
cy, in place of Charles L. Hyde re-
signed.

tatives present at the meeting held

After the organization of the F. N.
L. club the members of the organi-
zation were rendered q banquet at

outlined and each Of the agency force
pledged himself to produce a certain
amount of business during the year

ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE,

ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE.
One of the most important features
of the regent meeting of the execu.
tive conn htee of the Missouri Slope
Development League in the capital
city was the adoption of a plan of
organization for furthering the ex-
ploitation of the resources of the
Slope country. The desire of the Of
fcers of the league is to appoint dis
trict secretaries who will look after
the organization Of local development
leagues. in each Of the fourteen coun-
ties affiliated with the association.
This assures a more thorough adver-
Using of the resources of each coun.
Y. The local secretary would be
much more familiar with the natural
wealth Of his home territory than
would be the general secretary. who
would have a vastly broader field to
work in.
The development league plans to
bring the Slope country before the
attention of all prospective new set
tiers. It's officers are men who are
earnest and enthusiastic boosters for
their section. They have done ex-
cellent work in the past few months.
and they will do even heartier work
ir the future. Already several colo
ntzation schemes are under way to
people the prairies with industrious
and intelligent citizens: The ensu-
Ing decade will witness a marvellous
transformation Of the former feeding
grounds Of the buffalo. Smaller
farms will be titled, more people will
make their homes with us, towns will
thrive and enlarge, and new towns
will spring up.
The Slope country will .,develop.
and the development league will aid
materially in the work. The county
leagues will be active but they will
not forget that their interest lies in
the advancement Of the entire slope.
The individual counties first, but the
Slope country all the time. Concert
Cd effort on the part of all the coun.
ties will assure tho western section
OF the state = period of progress and
prosperity such as has never before
been witnessed. IN 1.-The northwest.
One for all saasa!F Tor one. The fu.
ture seems bright for the great Mis-.
souri, Slope.

The assurance Of a colonization
company that it will bring hundreds
of thrifty Hungarian tillers Of the
soil to make homes for themselves on
the Missouri slope is most encourag-
ing. European farmers as a rule are
accustomed to smaller tracts. Their
methods are frugal and painstaking.
Under conditions in their former
home economy Is rigidly demanded
in fact is absolutely necessary
The methods and training which they
have received can be prof1tably en-
ployed on western prairies.

AS TO !, BISMARCK SCHOOLS.

E. J. Taylor, Superintendent Of
Public Instruction, gives out the fol.
lowing: -,
II have read the purported inter-
view of N. C. Macdonald in the Valley
City Times Record regarding the pub.
lie schools of Bismarck. Mr.. Mac
donald has either been misQuoted or
misinformed as to the condition of
the Bismarck schools.
ut is true that the school Is not
CLASSIFIED as first class, but this was
caused by the action of the high
school board two years ago making 1t
mandatory to give courses in manual
training and domestic science. 1t
has been a physical im3osibility to
offer these courses on account OF
there being no available space in the
buildings to give them. In every 9TH
er respect the Bismarck schools are
first class and the equal of those that
are classified as first class.
I'm regard to the recognition which
the high school diplomas receive. l
can only say that Mr.. Macdonald's
statement is not substantiateo by the
facts, as the University of North Da-.
kota accepted the 1911 diplomas from
the Bismarck high school in lieu of
all examinations for admission to the
freshman class the school not being
classified as first class.
"Mr. Macdonald is reported to have
said that 1.-THE Capital city schools
have lost their rank as being an &C.
credited high school in the associa-:
ton of such schools at Chicago.
This is not so, as the school has new
er been on the list he refers to and
consequently could not be dropped.
from a list on which it never has
been.
"Mr. Macdonald is also reported TO-
have stated that the Bismarck schools
have lately deterioated. In this again
he is mistaken. as the Bismarck
schools are better today than they
have ever been before.
II am informed that Mr.. Macdonald
has never visited the Bismarck
schools"

ASHES CAUSE TROUBLE.
Clifford Building Scene Of confIaors
ton This Afternoon.

Friday afternoon about two o'clock
an alarm of fire was turned in from
the Clifford residence on Avenue F.
Some hot ashes had been thrown out
of doors and had been blown against
the side of the building which caught
fire. The blaze worked It's way
through the side of the house and up
through the walls to the second
story. It was a hard one to fight on
account Of the force necessary to
throw q stream Of water on It. How
ever the department responded In
quick time and finally got the flames
under control.

STANDARD POLICIES.

North Dakota was one of a dozen
states whose legislatures last year
enacted legislation relative to health
and accident insurance. About two
years ago the National Convention Of
Insurance Commissioners proposed a
bill looking to a uniform law relative
to the. provisions and conditions to
be contained in health and accident
insurance policies. There had been
much confusion on this subject. and
soma. policies contained not ONLY
tricky clffSesasblt also provisions of
relatively littlh2 value save as talking
points fof insurance statesmen. The
proposedsibill prohibited these CON-
panies from inserting In their poll
cies clauses which experience nad
sho* tc abe bad, and required them
to use certain specified policy pro.
visions Of conceded propriety and
value. The bill is now. a law in the
states Of New York, Massachusetts,
Connecticut, Idaho, North Carolina;
North Dak6ta; Oregon. Pennsylvania
South Carolina, IlWashington and Wis:
iconsin. Insurance Commissioner
Taylor states that the proposed uni
form bill was slightly amended by
the legislature Of this state. but that
the changes were in favor Of the pol.
icy holders.
In putting this uniform bill into
effect, however. the various insur-
ance departments found themselves
somewhat in. disagreement as to the
meaning of the same. Accordingly
at a recent adjourned meeting Of the
convention held in New York, 1t was
decided, to prepare a code of rulings
which would. in effect, be binding
upon III of the states where the law
now is in force. as we'll as upon all
Of whe companies. The companies
writing health and accident insurance
in North Dakota are now being re-
quired to revise their policies SO as
to bring them into harmony with the
law and the rulings thereupon.
!. r.: FOR NEW BUILDINGS.
The following statements give the
amounts the legislature Of last ses.
sion appropriated for buildings Of the
several state institutions-and last
year was not considered q very good
year from a financial standpoint at
that. It should be remembered that
these appropriations shown for the
institutions were only for new build
ings and improvements. This state
ment does not contain any mention
or consideration Of appropriations
for the maintenance of the institu-
lions which are entirely separate
from the amounts given herewith.
