While on the platform at the Bis
marck meeting of farmers to cOnsid-
er marketing problems copy of the
LaMoure Chronicle was handed to me
containing an article by Congress-
man Young in which he says that he
is in favor of the Manahan investi-
cation Of boards of trade and that
he will support the Lever bill pro-
viding he can get it amended SO that
1t will stand for federal inspection in
stead of federal supervision.
Contrasting the foregoing with the
attitude of Mr.. Young up to this time,
one is forced to the conclusion that
Mr.. Y0ung's support either of the Nc
Cumber or Lever bills or the Mana.
han resolution has been of such re.
cent date that he had no opportunity
to acquaint himself with either of the
bills or the resolution and is, there
fore not competent at this time to
pass upon their merits.
1t may ibe news to Mr.. Young to
learn that the farmers of the North
west sent delegation or committee
to Washington to secure legislation
for the federal grading of grain.
= l had the great honor to be select
ed chairman of that committee. On
the committee with me were the fol-
lowing men: Ira NJ. j. Chryst, Hud.
son, Wis, national president, Ameri.
can Society of Equity; Magnus John.
son, Kimball, Minn., president of the
American Society of Equity, of that
state; Ira y. McVicker, Eagle Grove,
Iowa, president of the Farmers Grain
Growers Association; VIM. Schultz,
Valley City, N. D.; H. G. Solem, Bal
tic, S. D., the father of cooperation
and director of the cooperative asso-
citation of that state. .
It may also be news to Mr.. Young
that Senator La Toilette whom Mr..
Young is quoting in support of his
candidacy on the basis OF an endorse.
ment given two years ago attended
that hearing and gave the committee
his earnest attention. There were
also present P. D. Norton, North Da.
kota, Helgeson, North Dakota and
Volstead, Minnesota and a host of
others interested In better markets
for the products of the farm.
That committee endorsed the Lever
bill after getting it amended as "a
much better bill than the McCumber
bill. The McCumber bill gave the
secretary of agriculture power over
the inspectors.
He would have to appoint those
who passed the best examinations.

Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce,
might be one or any other man
equally under the influence of the
grain combine. But the secretary

HEAVY WIND
I STRUCK CITY
Light Rain Storm and Consider
able Dust Marked Monday
Evenings Storm.

Monday evening, as the dark was
just settling over the earth, one of
the twisting, threatening wind storms
for which this state has been noted
during the past four weeks, swept
over Bismarck, blowing dust and de.
bris in every direction and finally
ending with q heavy fall of rain.
Wind Was High.
The reports from the weather bu.
reau stated that the wind attained a
velocity of 48 miles an hour. At Man.
dan it was supposed to be much high
er, and at Dickinson it blew terifcal-
ly for some time. Torrents of rain
fell in all parts of the slope country.
Mandan had nearly an inch. Dickin-
son reported over an inch. Bismarck
had quite fall and at Fargo cloud.

the damage done by the wind and
rain could not be obtained at the time
the Tribune went to press. Consider
able hail was reported and the dam
age to glazing was reported to be
considerable.

DRAKE SHOWS Up
YOUNG'S RECORD
Attorneys of Farmers COMMITTEE
Declares He Gave Them No
Assistance.

New Rockford, N. D., June S.-Ben-
jamin Drake, counsel of the farmers
committee which attended the hear
ings in Washington on the Manahan
George NJ. You1g's record in connec-
ton with the marketing movement.
He declared that Congressman
Young had not lifted his hand to as
sist in the hearing and that 1t was
sOmmon knowledge that Young was
not interested or active. He backed
up every stateman: which J. NJ. An.
derson, president of the Farmers
Equity Cooperative exchange and J.
E. Kelley made at Bismarck relative
to Congressman Young's record.
Resolutions were adopted COM
mending the Tribune for its stand on
the Equity movement. The farmers
decided not to purchase flour from
mills refusing to purchase their grain

would have to appoint such If they
stood highest. He would have nc
discretionary power to reject anc
when once appointed such men would
be there for life.
Under the McCumber bill neither
the secretary nor anybody else had
any power of removal. Quite differ
ent is the Lever bill. Under its pro
visions, the secretary of agriculture
may appoint any person deemed com
petent. He may remove any inspec'
tor any time he deemed it necessary
for, ,favOritism, incompetency or for
any other cause that in his judgment
warranted such removal.
If those inspectors are half as bad
as they are charged with being (and
We have sworn testimony of a mem
ber of the Duluth Board of Trade that
in. ten years 26,OOO,0OO bushels of
wheat were stolen from the farmers
or the sellers under their manipula-
tiOn and we have the evidence that
nearly 100000 bushels more wheat
of No. and No. 9 grade 60 out OF
the Minneapolis markets each year
than is taken in) any bill that will
place such men in a position of this
kind for life is not in the interest OF
the farmers.
But of course, Mr.. Young being a
lawyer he is undoubtedly opposed to
the recall. We know what the ac'
tions of federal judges are as be-
tween the people, and robbing cor
porations, and we believe that If the
recall could be applied to them the
people would come near getting a
square deal than they do now.
Mr. Manahan, however, is the only
lawyer we know of who is In favor
of the recall of judges and the recall
generally as applied to other public
servants He also is in favor of the
Lever bill and it was he that wrote
the amendments into the Lever bill,
the amendments agreed to by the far
mers' committee.
1t therefore appears that Congress.
man Young is to say the least pre-
sumptious in attempting to tell the
farmers that the Lever bill needs to
be amended in order to give federal
inspection under its provisions.
Does Mr.. Young claim that he is
now more interested in the farmer
than Mr.. Manahan? Or is he work
ing in the interests Of the "grain
combine"
"Doings in Grain one Of the
mouthpieces of the combine informs
us that every exchange in the North
west and also in the East has sent
representatives to the hearings be-
fore the House Committee on Agri-
culture, in order to have the Lever
bill amended, to make 1t stand for

OF STATE
TAX LEVY UNDER ADMINS
TRATION LOWEST IN HIS. !,
TRY OF NORTH OAK.
FOR Lower INTEREST la1f.
Willing to Abide Decision of Peo-
pie Upon Record of His
Office.

Fargo, N. D., June 8.-GOvern0r
Hanna left this evening for New York
where he sails soon for Norway to
be gone about six weeks. Before
leaving he issued the following state
ment to the voters of this state.
THE business Of the state has
been brought down to date; every
board meeting held and all bills
against the state have been audited.
Cuts Debt Down.
"A year ago last January when I
came into Office, there were practical
ly $500, 100000 in unpaid bills and uh.
paid appropriations outstanding.
During the last year and half these
claims rave Deen paid. Also, at that
time, there were outstanding $937.-
10000 in bonds against the state,
making total Indebtedness Of ST.
237, 10000. The current debt owed
at that time, as stated, has been paid
and in addition $30O,000.OO Of the
bonded debt has been paid from the
sinking fund, leaving a debt today
Of $60O,0OO.OO less than year and
half ago, and leaving the bonded debt
of the state at $637, 10000 and all cur
rent Indebtedness against the state
taken care of.
Against Treasury. Raids.
During the session Of the legisla-
ture year ago vetoed practically
$500, 100000 of bills, but no institution
in the state has been closed and the
efficiency of no institution in the
state has been lessened by reason of
those vetoes. 1t has required a little
more economy on the part Of the
various departments of the state and
in the practicing this economy
have had the hearty cooperation of
the various boards and the men at
the various state institutions. By
reason OF vetoing those appropria-
tions, it has been possible to place
the state in the financial condition
it now is and should I be nominated
and reelected as Governor, / believe
it will be possible by the close OF my
next term as Governor to have the
state entirely out of debt, both float
ing and bonded.
Lowest Tax Levy in History Of
State. ". "
The state levy for the general fund
as made last summer by the State
Board of Equalization was the lowest
for the general fund ever made in the
history of the state. Had the $780,.
10000 vetoed among the appropria-
tions been approved, in order to raise
that amount of money by the state
levy, it would have been necessary
to have increased the assessed valua-
ton of the property of the state by
one hundred and ten million, thereby
raising the assessed valuation of the
state from about three hundred and
four millions to about four hundred
and fifteen millions. This would
have increased the county officers
salaries in almost every county in
the state and the people of the state
would not only have had to pay the
appropriation of $500, 100000, but
would have had to pay many th0us-
ands in excess of that in the way Of
increased salaries.
To Visit Several Nations.
On my present trip to Europe my
party and myself go first to Norway

Washington, D. c., June S-Huerta's 8
order suspending the decree blockad-
ing Tampico against the delivery Of
ammunition by the steamer Antilla
to the constit,ttionalists served to dis
pei apprehension over the new crisis
between the United States and Huer-
ia government which threatened
mediation of Mexican affairs Though
Washington officials expressed salts
faction over Huerta's action it was
persistently suggested by outside Of
ficials that the blockade was suspend
ed only conditionally. As the result
of a conference between the south
American mediators, Mexican and
American. delegates to Niagara Falls
it was decided that the Antilla's car
60 of arms might not be delivered at
Tampico at present. 1t may be d.
verted in her course, though an
agreement of the officials of the Ward
liner and her owner, an American
corporation. From no omcial source
was confirmation procurable of the
reports that Huerta had an under
standing with meditators or the Unit

cargo will not be delievered.

supreme court today. The court az
firmed the decree of the Missouri s,l.
preme court ousting the International

is constitutional, although it applies
to restraints of combinations dealing
in commodities, and not to combina-
tions of labor. Penalties imposed by
various Kentucky counties upon the
International Harvester company as
being a member of the crust were
set aside by the supreme court. Mel

Fall Flowing Best

1t is the opinion of those who have
observed what fall plowing will do
for the farmer that the Try farmers
will have bumper crop next sea-
son especially if they had their
ground plowed before tho snow Of
the early part of December. It is
stalrd that the moistu~e will 20 down
to 4 depth of five an-i SIN ct and
be pr" sent in the so.' ,lnring the en-
ire OF -cxt spring ami sun,n.r
The ground that had not been
plowed will hold considerable mois-
ture. but that which was turned will
prove that the fall blowing is the
most beneficial.
Owners of reservoirs and many of
those tilling unirrigatcd lands say
that 1914 will be the banner year in
Colorado. They anticipate that every
ditch, every reservoir and canal will
be given severe test as to capacity,
but that it means great deal more
water for irrigation purposes than
will be needed. There are about 600
projects in the state and there is
total capacity of reservoirs of 2,0O0,-
900 cubic feet.
Some of the irrigation company Of
fieie's say that that the crop out
look for next year is the best in the
history of Colorado. All the big
streams will have all the water they
can handle and the ground win be
kept moistened by the SHOWS.

A Student Of Crops

There is a farmer in Fremont
county who is a great student of agri-
culture and goes down to the bot
tom of things like the farmers of
Crowley county have proven by their
successes that they have done. He
tells the following story of his first
corn crop back in Illinois, and the
principal in the main is applicable to
other crops other than corn:
In, the spring of 1859 in Ogle coun-
ty, Illinois, had all the crop to put
in. my father and brothers being sick.

three horses. Being believer in

sleep" l plowed nine inches deep.

Canned Beet Juice is Most Recent
Method Advocated for the Farmers

Canned beet juice is the latest idea
to aid the beet growers to realize a
still greater profit off that industry.
A representative of the Great West
ern Sugar company, at Greeley claims
that it is timesaving method and
may revolutionize the sugar industry
of Colorado. He proposes to have
the farmers top, clean and reduce
their beets to Juice without the
trouble and expense OF transporting
the product to the refinery. Discuss
ing the matter this official says:
"The first great expense to the
farmer, after the beets are topped
and ready for the factory, is trans
portation. The next, if the full bene-
fit to the growersis to be realized, is
hauling back of the pulp to the farm
for stock fattening or other pur-
poses.
II would keep the tops and the
pulp on the farm where they natur-
ally belong, and with that end in view
would have slicing done on the
farms themselves, or have such sta
tions at twq-mile intervals all over
the beet-growing territory, or even
less. This would eliminate long hauls
over heavy roads; eliminate waiting
for cars and SLIDING of beets, which
would mean an enormous saving in
time and money to the grower.
"The farmer would dig the beets
clean them with wire brushes on end
less chains, using whatever power
available. Then. if the farmer had a
