BELGlANs MIGHT COME HERE.

To satisfy the murderous lust of the
crowned heads of Europe, Belgium is
in ruins and most of her population
homeless. What a splendid thing it
would now be for those poor distress
ed people if they might come to this
state and occupy the vacant land,
waiting to be made into homes.
Perhaps no plan could be
worked out to bring these peo-
pie here but we need them and
they undoubtedly need what we have
to offer and it would be pleasant op-
portunity for this state and those peo-
pie if they might be transplanted here,
to make homes. That there will be an
increasing large number from the war
swept countries of Europe coming to
the state as soon as the war has so
far subsidized that they can get away
is freely predicted and seems reason
able and with our splendid fertile state
the best farming land in the world to
offer as an inducement, they ought to
be easily persuaded to locate here.

ELECTION APPROACHING.

AS election time approaches there
is slightly more interest in politics
and political affairs but the present
outlook is for very small vote and
for the election OF the entire state re-
publican ticket. The splendid work
Of Governor Hanna in installing the
system in handling state affairs and
the great reduction in the expense OF
carrying on state business has made
him so popular with the average vot-
er that his vote this fall will be the
largest ever received in the state by
candidate for the same position.
The day has passed when people are
misled by cleverly laid political
claims, they are now analyzing the
facts and in this instance have made
up their minds many months since
and the final counting Of the ballots
will tell story of perfect confidence
in the splendid work accomplished by
our chief executive, Governor Z. B.
Hanna.

HARD ON CARRIERS.

The announcement that Postmaster
General Burleson favors change in
the rural delivery system whereby car
riers will have to bid for the work
and obtain it by bidding lower than
anyone else, is causing great appre-
hension among rural carriers all over
the country. This is the old star-route
system revived. Under it, the bidder
would no doubt be allowed to take on
as many contracts as he could handle,
and every rural carrier would become
the employee of the contractor, in.
stead of Uncle Sam as he is now. In
time, the contractor could become a
big corporation which would fix the
compensation Of the men at $500 to
$500 a year, instead Of $1,000 to $120C
which the Government now pays them
direct, and the contractor would get
rich on the work of the carriers. The
contractor would come to own the
horses, wagons or automobiles and the
carrier would become mere driver.

would be much less likely to leave the
farm than under old conditions of
isolation and Encouragement.
Clarence Piper, who represented
terminal elevator interests on the
trip, found that an interchange of
viewpoint between business men
and farmers had already brought
practical advantages to both. He was
struck with the words of one farmer
who, in referring to the county tax for
the work done, said: owe farmers
don't expect people to do things for
nothing" Cooperation of effort was
evidently resulting in a growing sense
of mutual responsibility.
All of this only goes to show that
the work being done here in this state
is attracting attention all over the con-
tinent and those who are SO indus
triously belittleing the work might
find serious food for thought in the I'M
biased opinion of people who live out
side of the United States and who
have no interest at all.

PLEASES CANADIANS.

The Canadians who recently visited
Valley City and were the guests of the
Commercial Club have individually
and collectively expressed through the
Canadian press their appreciation of
the work being done in this state by
the Better Farming Association as
well as the Agricultural Colleges and
in many instances cited individual
farmers and farmer clubs to prove
that the farmers appreciate the work
being done in the state by these insti-
tutions. Here is what one Of the
party has to say in a Winnipeg publ
cation:
According to Henry Detchon, gen.
eral manager of the Credit Mems as
ISOLATION, and organizer of the ex-
cursion, the report Of the Winnipeg
contingent will be made in the near
future at a joint meeting of financial
commercial and farming interests.
Mr.. Detchon felt convinced that the
Better Farming movement had given
an impetus to North Dakota in other
than purely agricultural or even
business progress. Already it was re-
sulting in better and more contented
men and women-possesse of the
broadened horizon essential to good
citizenship. Mr.. Detchon believes
that III no way can financial and bust
ness men contribute more to their
own legitimate interests and to the
economic stability of the country's
progress, than by preferring practical
and actual cooperation with the
farming interests of the west and with
the provincial departments of agri
culture"
One of the most interesting and en-.
thusiastic men in the party was w. H
McWilliams and Winnipeg paper
quotes him as follows:
To w. H. McWilliams, representing
the grain exchange, one of the most
Interesting features of the better
farming movement across the line
was the bringing about of stronger
social feeling in farming communi
ties. Not least important was tle

WHAT ABOUT MEXICO?

Governor Hunt of Arizona is about
to rush the militia to the border to
protect the interests of the state. Ev-
cry effort is being made to prevent
this as it is considered by military au-
thorities to be a move that might re-
suit in bloodshed and perhaps be the
cause of war with the Mexicans. The
handling of the situation on the bore
er by President Wilson seems to have
worked out advantageously to this
country and it would be deplorable at
this time if one of the border states
were to start any movement that
might result in embroiling this coun-
try in a war with Mexico even if it
were only a play-war. America is
taking object lessons in peace and the
sentiment at this time is SO against
the country engaging in war that any
movement looking in that direction is
going to meet with general protest
from all parts of the country and Gov
ernor Hunt of Arizona can add mo-
terially to his popularity by keeping
his militia at home and allowing them
to persue their several vocations in
peace, without being called to do
border military duty.

is THE BETTER FARMING MOVE.
MENT POPULAR?

During the past few months at
tacks have been repeatedly made on
the Better Farming Association of
this state and the statement frequent
ly made that the organization and
their efforts were not popular with
the farmers. In the present political
campaign this statement is also fire.
quently used as basis of attack on
the present administration. 1T is not
true" says Rev. Alex Karr, and who
is in a better position to know than
this man? When asked on what he
based his belief he stated frankly that
he had arrived at the conclusion after
interviewing hundreds of farmers and
was only echoing what they had stat
ed to him. Going further in answer
to question he stated that no branch
of the Chautauqua work was more
popular than that work which had to
do with the farmer boys and girls, and
that it is the agricultural branch of the
work, which is really part of the
Better Farming Association, which is
paving the way for the securing of the
splendid endowment that is being do
mated to the Chautauqua. He believes
firmly in the work of the agricultural
college and the Better Farming Asso-
citation and is a great admirer of the
present governor and his activity in
everything that pertains to better
farming, cleaner business methods,
better living, better public institutions,
better schools and better boys and
girls. The singular success that has
attended the efforts of Mr.. Karr in
his work in Valley City and the state
makes the statements regarding the
position of the majority of farmers to-
ward the Better Farming Association
as we'll as the agricultural college of
considerable Importance to those who
have heard the criticisms and the
reckless statements that seem to have
originated with the fellows who have
an axe to grind"
