THE TAX COMMISSION VETO.

There has been considerable dis
cussion among the newspapers OF the
state, both for and against, in regard
TO Gov. Hanna's veto of the tax com
mission appropriation bill
While we have never had much
faith in Mr. Hanna's proposed bust
ness p administration, we hardly
thought he would allow his personal!
and political soreness toward certain
office holders to go so far as to injure
the interests of the people who elected
him to office.
Hanna's excuse for the veto might
look all right to those who are SO
ignorant and so party bound that they
do not want to learn. but when it is
considered that the members Of the
present tax commission were appoint
ed by former Governor Burke, and not
by Mr.. Hanna, and that they are moi
now, and never have been supporters
of Hanna, and that among them is
Packard, formerly editor of the Bis
/. marck Times, which paper has Away:
been a more or less thorn in Hanna
and his friends sides. sufficient plaus
f ible reasons can be found.

new Law
GREAT NORTHERN RAILROAD
WILL NOT ABIDE BY RULING
OF r. r. COMMISSION.

BISMARCK, n. D., April 4.-The
Great Northern railroad will not abide
by the decision of the State Railroad
Commission that physical connections
must be established and maintained
between that road and the 500 line at
Bisbee, Lansford and Omemee, which
order was recently made upon the ap-
plication of the National Briquetting
company of Kenmare.
The Great Northern will urge a mo-
ton on April that proceedings under
the commissions order be suspended,
pending. the decision of the district
court on the action to annul the entire
order. This motion will be argued at
Minot.
The Hill road is levelling an attack
also upon that feature of the commits
sion's decision which provided for the
establishing of a joint tariff between
points on the two lines, such tariff
to be based on the shortest direct haul
possible with the connections describ-
| ed being maintained
This is the first time that the State
Railroad commission has assumed
such extensive authority.

MEMBERSHIP IS MORE THAN
TREBLED DURING PAST TWO
YEARS AND HALF.

That the average newspaper man
is quick to, take advantage of any
movement that, will be of use to him.
is indicated by the growth of the
North Dakota Press Association. In
1910 there were only rs members; in
1911 there were 181 members; during
1911 there was a gain of rs members,
making the enrolment January 90,
1912, 257. On January S1st, 1913, the
Secretary's records show that there
were 311 members of the Association,
thus showing steady, healthy growth
during the past three years: Secretary
Will E. Holbein of Lansford reports
that practically all the newspaper men
will be members by the time of the
summer meeting in Grand Forks June
Goth and 21st.
Organized effort is as fruitful in
the newspaper field as in other lines;
and the newspaper men are rapidly
perfecting an excellent organization
that will benefit both the trade and
the state at large. &;

During the recent session cot Il

During the recent session of the
legislature, and upon the motion of
representative Fox, a reactionary, a
committee was appointed to investi-
gate the Offices of large number OF
the state officials, among them being
the members of the state tax commits
sion. The report of this committee
stated that they found the duties Of
the members Of this board being car
red out according to law, and the
only complaint they could rakefup was
that Packard, a member Of the board,
was writing a few editorials for the
Bismarck Times, and this committee
recommended that he cease opera
tons as said editorial writer. And
now Mr.. Hanna even refuses to sign
the appropriation bill which would
enable these men to conduct theiI
various offices according to law with
out financing the business themselves
(! We trust the majority of the people
CT North Dakota are not so weak-mind
ed that they will forget these little
matters at the next state election.

the city's bank balance gets back on

without the whole-hearted support of
each and every man, woman and child
in Devils Lake. There is not one of

welfare of the city at heart and are
willing to give, their time for prac'
tically no compensation to aid in get
ting the city in better financial condi
ticn, and to help reduce the burden

The fact that they are willing to sac

MILD WEATHER Is ATTRIBUTED
TO GREAT GAINS OVER 1912
-AvERAGE WAS sale.

The mild weather that prevailed
throughout the United States during
January and the good condition of
business in general caused the returns
of the railways to show large increas-
es over January of 1912, month that
was characterized by severe weather
impeding railway operation. Operat-
ing income for each mile of line aver
aged s7.66 for each day in January,
1913. This average for January, 1912,
was $500.
The corresponding average per mile
per day for the last fiscal year was
1919, for the previous fiscal year 1882,
for the seven months of the current
fiscal year $11.45. Comparison with
these longer periods averages the ef-
feet of fluctuations Of the weather and
shows that last January as usual was
relatively a poor month for railway
traffic.
The fact that this operating income
per mile of line per day averaged s12.-
IS in November, s10.16 in December,
and s7.66 in January shows that as
usual this was a month during which
traffic diminished. ------------.------.

Just what position the major leagues
will take in the matter is not made
plain The club owners already have
fair idea Of what the players will
ask in the way of changes in the rules,
and there seems to be a disposition
to make but few concessions. ON the

will Insist on getting what 1t asks,
and If 1t is not forthcoming it viii or

ORGANIZED MEN
HAVE NO FEARS

NEW YORK, Oct fa.-While or
ganized baseball men say they take
no stock in the Federal leagues threat
TO declare war upon them. they are
ready for a battle For ten years
the major league clubs have been turn
ing over 10 per cent OF their receipts
10 the league treasurers until. it is
said. there Is more than 81, 500. 600 on
hand for meeting outlaw organizations.
The national commission has managed
nine worlds series, of which 10 per
cent of the gross receipts has netted
about $4,000. OF this sum nearly
100000 has been set aside for just
such an emergency as the Federal
league threatens to bring bout.
While the bail players fraternity. as
a body, has stated that there will be
no affiliation with the Federals, the
National and American league men
are prepared to go the limit In keep
ing headstrong players away from the
so-called outlaws.
If the National league decides to
elect r. w. Brown. of Louisville. to
fill the place OF President Thomas j.
Lynch. will Garry Hermann be re-
chosen to serve as chairman of the
commission? Hermann must be
elected by the votes of the two major
league presidents. Ever since the
commission was organized the Ma
tional sieague has controlled 1t with
two votes. although the American
leagues representative, Ran Johnson
has been treated with absolute fair
ness. The American league men pre-
fer Lynch to Brown. Therefore, will
johnson consent to- Herrmann's re-
election II Lynch is deposed7
Lack of sportsmanship Is reason
for the determined opposition to
Lynch. Certain National league club
owners have kicked harder over YER
diets handed down by Lynch than
bali players have objected to the rul-
ings Of umpires. Lynch has been
called upon to decide various protests
and he has played no favorites.
