ton, Wyndmcre and Hankinson-1he Tribune Troop
has put The Tribune before prospective readers on
the only basis worthy of a paper-a fiat rate of sao-
%scription, without premiums or without charges OF
any kind for the write.ups which appear in the
Tribune.
And a distinct feature of the write.ups is the fact
that, without catering to personal vanity, they aim to
set before readers the advantages of the state, the
developments, the adoption of newer methods in
farming, in caring for live stock. They e~xemplify The
Tribune's desire to boost for North Dakota as a
whole. A farm run on a large scale, an unusually
large institution, a new venture, q typical practice OF
the best methods in corn culture, in diversiication OF
crops, in the breeding of %pure.bred live stOck-a1i
these are things worthy of al upward push, and In
these writeups of the towns and cities, and in the
daily correspondence of the "Overlanders," as they
come upon these things on their trip The Tribune
endeavors to do its share in educating its readers to
the development in their own state.
The "Overlanders" have been out four months OF
a three.year campaign on horseback. Dozens of read
ers are added to the list every day, and The Tribune
depended on for live-wire news from the largest to
the the least important point in the state. Located
in the Cap.al, its opportunity to furnish %authentic
information of general state interest is greater than
ever, and it is hoped the people OF North Dakota
will appreciate the effort and the service.

HeLDin0 Our Schools

The state bonded Indebtedness at the present time
is 1887 10000. State bonded indebtedness means
bonds issued for the building of institutions, twlne
plant bonds, and funding and %refunding bonds Issued
for strictly state purposes. 49,. ~
For a state with the population, wealth and posi-
bilities that North Dakota lays claim to, this IS a
very small sum. In addition to having a very slnal
bonded Indebtedness, the people Of North Dakota may
take further pleasure from the fact that $66e,ooo OF
this total bonded Indebtedness is owned right at hoale.
This amount of bonds is held by the permanent FUNDS
of our common schools, so the interest on this IN
debtedness which the people pay by taxes goes direct
" back to the aid of the common schools, for al
earnings of the permanent fund Of the common
schools are apportioned quarterly to the schools ac'
cording to school population.
During the past four months the Board of Univer-
sity and School Lands has purchased from holders o.
North Dakota bonds, located in New York and Chl'
'cago. $4,000 worth Of these bonds, in addition to the
amount already held. When these are turned over to
the state, $747,OOO Of the total bond issue OF the state
will be held by the permanent school, fund, and the
interest will be returned to the schools to aid in their
support. The bonds have been, purchased at par anu
hear 4 per cent interest. This leaves only $l41,5Oc
If state bonds now owned outside of the state, SO
hereafter but little money for interest will be shipped
outside OF our state.
BY paying interest to ourselves we receive the
benefit in an indirect way. When we send interest
east we need expect but little return. The practice
Of the Board is a commendable one.

the supreme court Will be called upon to pass upon
will be that portion Of the law compelling state AUD
itor Jorgenson to receive the Cancelled warrants after
payment at the hands of the state treasurer.
State, Auditor Jorgenson contends that he is the
only state official, under the Constitution, who can
draw warrants, and that the drawing of warrants ny
the hail insurance commissioner is illegal, and that
being such he is not compelled to receive them after
they have been paid by the state treasurer. The only
question involved in the approaching trial of the SUI
preme court will be whether or not the law is con-
stitutional in SO, far as it allows the hail insurance
commissioner to draw warrants, but it will not touch
upon that part of the law authorizing the state to
engage in the hail insurance business.

More ObsceniM for Uncle Sam

If Uncle Sam and some of the prudes who spleen
at jim Jan Jems-and things like that-would direct
their attention to some of the disgusting medical ao'
vertisements which are being sowed broadcast on the
streets of this and other cities, there might De a
chance to save the children from some of the vllest
reading. Only a few days ago thousands. of booklets
we're strewn about the streets of this city, and dozens
of children were to be seen carrying them hone.
These advertisements deal with the most loath-
some diseases and vices, and contain fake testllnohl-
ais. which, are putrid reading and disgusting.
No honorable or reliable professional man or III
stitution will indulge in this kind of rot, and aslde
from protecting society against the crime of distnout-
ing SUCH vile matter, those who are easy enough 70
patronize such institutions Should also be protected
This matter was printed somewhere outside the
state of North Dakota, and was undoubtedly express
ed or mailed into this state, and now that Uncle SAN
is so very diligent in protecting the dear people from
obscenity, here is an excellent chance Tor him ana
his sleuths to get busy again. "...
