The above three statements of the condition of the different accounts are made with the assumption that the comptroller has secured authority rom the board of control to make certain transfers for the adjustment of the old repair account in question.
 On Trunk Line Repairs.
 There is no specific appropriation for new repairs on trunk lines. TheSs repairs are paid for wholly by the state The license fees received from motor vehicles are however, turned over to the highway department for this purpose. The total yearly amount of such fees approximates $35,O00. This sum is totally inadequate to pay the cost of repairs on trunk liens, so that draft has been made on the trunk hne account for the excess cost of repairs of such roads. Therefore the new re- pair account is largely fictitious one and the trunk line repairs are mainly a liability agOinSt the trunk line account.
 The charges for new repairs are in the form of payrol1s for labor hired, bills for stone, gravel, road oil, bitu- rninous material and other road ma terial The cost of supervision, trans portation of men, tools and equipment and operation of stone crushers are included in these charges.
 In connection with the new system of bookkeeping, have suggested two changes in the present method of carrying on the work. First, that the trunk line account be separated into new repair and construction account, and that the sum of S1, ,000, 900 of the new trunk line appropriation be trans ferred to the new repair account so that no overdraft on the trunk line account might exist. This has already been accomplished.
 Tha suggestion is also put that bills for the share of the towns in state aid construction be made out by the high way commissioner and submitted through the comptroller to the towns.
 Credit for the figures of the reports is given to the audit of the depart ments books made by c. w. Butcher of Hartford.

JUST A LITTLE ADVICE

I've been intending to come and see you ever since you got back from your wedding trip,'' began the caller, who was considerably older than the bride and whose cards were labeled Miss"
 How nice!'' murmured the bride in a slightly vague tone. She was still in the throes of horror that rack a pretty girl who has been discovered in a dusting apron and cap and who has the profound conviction that there must be smudges on her face. We got back so reCently-we hardly expected -n
 "Oh, I know!'' said the caller, sym patheticaIly. You aren't formally at home for a month yet acOrding to your cards, but I knew you wouldn't t mind me, even if you weren't settled. I'd love to help you! People think l have pretty good judgment about going to have that picture there? My dear, don't you see the greens in it jar with"

 "Oh!" cried the caller in little crescendo vail as she peered into the room in question. She shook her head gently and sadly. It's too bad" she mourned, that somebody didn't warn you before you picked out that brown paperI It went out last spring and you should have used the putty tones. It's really a crime when you want ev- erything up to date. You should phone them right away to change it.

QUIET MAN WITH 4 RECORD.

The representative from Bates
county, Hon. Lucien Baskerville, has
departed for his home. He leaves
behind him on the minutes of the
House splendid record. Mr.. Bask-
erville desired some new laws, but like
other representatives, he found early
in the session that only general laws
would be considered. Those local
measures received short shift. Mr..
Baskerville is a quiet young chap
with a desire to do good. He was an
effective force throughout the session
and his votes were always on the side
of the people he represented. He
quits the city having a clear, clean
conscience and his vote shows all the
progressive measures received sup
port. To Mt. Baskerville and his 9TH
er unassuming colleagues who played
not in the limelieht the state owes
debt of gratitude and their counties
owe each reelection. Capital
News.

fight the mother party whose policies
they knew were wrong, they gained
the admiration and respect OF even
those whose views were not in SYM
pathy with their beliefs.
But il seems that Bates County's
Bull Moosers could not stand defeat.
Their very political existence depends
apparently not upon their devotion
to cause, but upon their ability to
win; whether right or wrong, it mat
tiers not. Their action last week was
but the preliminary step backward
and the next election will probably
find them humbly bowling their heads
to the yoke of the Stsndpatter.
Progressiveism in Bates county is
another lost cause,-no not lost, but
ignebly deserted. Tee bad. We
had hoped its followers were made
of stern stuff.

enteen years the Democrats in the

ing together-not a man missing in a
great struggle. That was red-let-
ter day in the history of Democracy.
Will Act With Wilson.
"The House Democrats have been
together ever since and while neither
a prophet nor the son of prophet,
| predict that they will be in the Six
ty-third Congress act in unison, not
only with themselves but with Presi-
dent Wilson.
"After listening much and talking
little-the best way to Learnt have
yet to find a House Democrat who
does not take that view of it. If the
lesson from our own historic quarrels
is not sufficient, we would do well
to ponder the present Republican
feud and the woeful plight to which
it has reduced the party of Abraham
Lincoln"

This Should Appeal to Every

The ladies of the Wednesday Co.
terie are planning to give an enter
tainment, consisting Of musical num-

rest room.

ladies, who have no occasion to fire.

ly given this worthy cause their time
and money for the benefit of our peo-
pie, that it is maintained for the use
OF women and children visitors from
this entire trade district, and that
these rooms are greatly appreciated
by the women Of. this county, and to
make this resting place worthy the
name and to furnish a few Of the
comforts of home, necessarily costs
some money.
Our county court cheerfuny pays
for the service of the Matron who is
constantly in charge of these apart
ments, but all of the other expenses
are taken care of by the ladies' of the
Coterie, and as their excheouer is
shy OF a balance at this time, owing
to contributions made by them to
charities of different kinds, they are
resor6ng to this means to relplenish
their treasury sufficiently to meet
some urgent demands that are con-
fronting them. This spring they are
called on to make some very essen
tai and absolutely necessary expen-
ditures, outside of the smaller re-
quirements that they are called on
regularly to meet.
Now as these rooms are maintain
ed for the comfort of our visitors, it
should be a pleasure to our generous
and loyal citizens to contribute liber- :

Following that we promised to
strengthen the antitrust law; to es-

but it is our duty to work it out. The

THAT any man fit for official sta
ton will let his personal likes or dis
likes interfere with his cooperating
with any other Democrat in unifying
the party in its herculean and multi
farious tasks to redeem our pledges
and thereby contributing, as l believe
to the increased prosperity and hap
piness of the American people, is a
thing incredible. The suggestion of
such state of affairs comes from
faint hearted Democrats who are for
ever seeing ghosts or from malignant
marplots who, though masquerading
as Democrats, are not Democrats, at
all, but wolves in sleeps clothing.
Certain of these venomous eleventh
hour Democrats are loud-mouthed
in proclaiming trouble where none
exists and in laying down a rule of
conduct for real Democrats.
Genume Democrats, who have
the good of the party and the coun-
try at heart would do well to give no
heed to these self-styled Democrats
whose chief business is to stir up
strife among Democrats by 'foully
slandering any Democrat who has

speaker was unanimously reelected

tent. | have the consent of the
Speaker as we'll as the Democratic

complete Eefutation of the intimatieHs-
which have appeared in the press re-
Gently to the effect that Mr.. Clark is

''Since the foundation of our gov
ernment," declared Mr.. Clark, mo
party ever had fairer prospect of a
long lease of power or better chance
of promoting the welfare and pros

with our opportunity? The voters
have only placed us on probation.
Can we make good? Can we vindi-
cate the vast army of voters who
gave US the power to conduct the
government? Undoubtedly we can.
How? By keeping faith with the
people. By reliqiously carrying out
the promises by reason Of which we
won. By transmitting into law our

under which we live. If we do this

INDIANS BECOMING ,
DEFECTIVE BEINGS
Reservation Missionary Recit6s
Alleged Reasons.

Indians are becoming a race of de-
fectives because OF government mis-
takes in control and the states in
which the Indians are located are fail
ing in a monster problem that will
loom up within the next generation
when these detectives must be taken
care of, said DR.. A. Meg. Beede, a
missionary on the Standing Rock res
%ervation, in a statement issued.
starvation will be the fate of many
Indians this winter, despite assertions
of government Indian officials to the
contracy," said DR.. Beede.
Official reports are called upon by
the average citizen to show that there
has been improvement during the last
five years." he said. The opposite is
true. Conditions have been growing
worse all the time, notably on the
Standing Rock Sioux reservation.
Fully one-half of the Indian chill
dren pass their childhood under con-
ditions which must give rise to a de-
fective human being. Starvation bf
mothers is the cause.
The present and past system of
'civilizing' Indians always has been a
failure. It's ruling principle has not
been honesty and sincerity.
THE sooner all the Indians are
freed the better for them and the
worse for INSCRIPTIONS men and
trusts who make money cut OF the

ROAD TO ENTER GARRISON
Change In Route Will Take Great
Northern to City.

Garrison gets the Great Northern as
a Christmas present from the officials
of the road. This is a result of the
decision of the Great Northern to
change it's route across the Berthold
reservation for the line proposed from
New Rockford to Lewiston.
Instead of running along the river,
as originally planned, the line will
cross the 500 at Garrison, then go
west through the Roseglen section and
meet the extension from Mckenzie
county at the river. This will open
a more fertile country and give the
road a chance to haul grain from both
sides of its line.

people of Garrison a direct line to Fan.
