WALL be an event which will mark an
epoch n the history Of the world. The
United States government has spent
nearly a half million Of dollars upon
THIS project, which undoubtedly is the
most remarkable eve attempted. The

the amusement attractions for the
North Dakota State fair this year has
arranged through the cooperation of
the official model maker Of the 18TH
milan Canal commission to present to
It's patrons a reproduction of the
Panama canal, in miniature although
gigantic in its construction, and the
hundreds of thousands of school chill
dren as well as their parents, will find
much enjoyment, and add to their gen.
eral knowledge, in witnessing this re-
markable replica Of mans greatest
achievement. Linking the two oceans,
the Atlantic and the Pacific, and
traVersed as it will be, by the ships
OF the world. the Panama canal will
stand as an everlasting monument Of
which Americans will ever be proud.
1t is particularly gratifying that it has
peen found possible for the manage
ment of The World at Home to bring
10 our very doorWays an exhibition Of
this character. The models Of the
Panama ANA exhibits were prepared
from actual government working plans
and cost thousands of dollars. The
spectator Is made familiar with all
the miles Of the canals length; the
lecturer is no novice, but a man who
helped make the canal, and has been
IN the government service for the past
fifteen years. Thousands of tourists

To The Forum: Since Mr.. Burdich,
one of the candidates for nomination
for governor on the republican ticket,
has seen fit to come out for the single
tax, it may be we'll for the voter, espe-
C1ally the farmer, to realize what the
term Single Tax means. In its modern
and modified form, it means that all
the taxes Of the state are to be levied
on land, n on land alone, and that
ell industrial improvements be x
cmpt.
This exemption would include all the
rolling stock, grades n tracks OF
railroads, all the telephone and tele-
graph lines, all the franchises, build
ings and machinery and industrial cor
pcrations, in short it would include all
PERSONAL property. as well as that part
which Is now classed as real property,
bat which has been or is created by
Industrial Improvements.
II is true that the railroads, tele-
phone and telegraph lines. and the
various industrial corporations would

Cupy but the value placed On this LAND
for The purpose of taxation would be
the value less the industrial improve
ments. In other words this land would
c6 hdASu dI Tie Saint value DIS lllS du-
5acert unimproved and unoccupied
land. For example, if the vacant and
unimproved land through which a rail-
oad passed was taxed on a valua-
sion Of $40 an acre. then the land that
the railroad occupied would be tax
ed on the same valuation, namely, $50
an acre.
The expenditures of the state under
the Single Tax system would undoubt-
eGly be the same as under the present
system, and the money to meet these
expenditures would have to be raised
By an increase Of the taxes on LAND
IN the same proportion as other pro-
perty would be exempt. The result
would be that the tax on land would
be greatly increased, and that the
farmer would have to pay more taxes
than he does at present, as he is the
one who occupies most of the land in
This state.
ADose Mr.. Burdick believe that the
farmers are eager to pay more taxes,
that they are willing to have their
lands singled out to pay all the taxes
of the state? Can the farmer be fool
ed by being told that his few buildings
would also be exempt, while the rail-

escape taxation, or will he see through
this sophistry, and realize hat if
land, and land alone is to be taxed to
meet all the expenses Of running the
state, then he will have to pay more
than his share?
Mr.. Burdick has recently become
aware Of the fact that the farmers
are beginning to realize what single
tax means, and for that reason has
added an unintelligent and ambiguous
qualification to his single tax platform.
He now says that he is in favor Of
Single Tax. in other words, exemp-
ton Of taxation Of agricultural i'm
provements." This qualification means
everything and nothing. If he means
by this that farm buildings, and farm
improvements alone are to be ex-
empt, while city buildings and i'm
prOVements are to be taxed, then his
proposition is neither constitutional,
equitable nor just. Our laws require
that all taxation must be uniform. It
would not be uniform if a dwelling
house worth $40, 900 outside Of the city
limits was exempt, while one within
the city limits Was taxed.
1t would not be just or equitable if
l could own a dwelling house outside
of the city limits worth $4,000 and
escape taxation, while a poor man who
worked for SIS a week would have to
pay a tax on one worth $500 just be-
cause it happened to be within the city
limits. Such a proposition, If consti-
tutional, which it clearly Is not, as it
would not be uniform, and would be
class legislation, is not desired by the
farmer.
Let every farmer and newspaper,
that is interested in this proposition,
take Henry Georges Single Tax, or
any other authority on Single Tax, and
get a full understanding of what is
meant by Single Tax before the prim-
aries.
Is the Single Tax to the advantage
of the railroads. telegraph and tele-
phone lines, as we'll as other industrial
corporations, or is it to the advantage
Of the farmer? Whose interest does
Mr.. Burdick advocate when he advo-
Gates the Single Tax? Let him ans
wer.

BETTERING FARM CONDITIONS

Mcleod, N. D.. June 18.-To The

game into this country. Then it was
that land could be had for the asking
and good land. Our fathers and
grandfathers by sheer luck in some
cases have kept their land and it is
now worth 500 an acre where it
could formerly be had for the asking.
A farm then could be farmed far diff
ferent than it could be successfully
farmed now.
In those days nothing was thought
OF the addition of humus but the get
ling out of humus by growing cereals

time has come where We have had to

Why not have a good pump, a gaso-

are keeping the same number and

here is making all kinds of money but
he had a fortune to start in with we
say. BY the way It was only through
business foresight that Farmer Jones
sent his son to the agricultural col
lege and when that boy came home he
brought the ideas that have made the
farm.
Harry soon got rid Of the boarder

Here's something else. Did you
ever notice when on your way to town,
that Farmer Jones' chickens were all
white while those of Mr.. Smith were
about every color? How much nicer
1t looks to have chickens all one color.
Farmer Jones also gets more for his
eggs than Farmer Smith. Farmer
Jones also has an incubator.

to have a grove of apple trees and
cherries with a few plum trees. He
ought to have a wash stand and cleo

you had a dumb waiter bring you

In whose mind was that similarity Of
thought most likely to run? Did Jims mind
run on waterclosets, too? The toilet ex-
plains why Mary was found where she died,

lie friends to proper understanding Of
Popery | have stressed the point that the sys-
tenn of Roman Catholicism, as it now exists,
IS q local, ItazjaD afoir!
The attention of the patriotic American
Catholic has been called to the fact that the
Pope is an absolute foreign monarch, elected
in secret by less than Is Cardinals, most Of
whom are Italians, and all of whom are APP
pointed by the Pope
Thus a complete Italian ring is formed, and
kept in power.
italian Cardinals, and this majority Of Ital-
ian Cardinals choose an Italian Pope. Ecery
time!
They have been doing that, for 400 years.
Hence, the Roman Catholic system is a
monarchy, in which the people have no voice,
no vote no control.
The Catholic people pay, ana obey: that's
what the Catholic people do
The Pope and The Cardinals appoint one
another, and issue orders to the people, and
live luxuriously at the expense Of The people,
swapping "bIessines7 for ducats
The Catholic people give the ducats and get
the blessings: the Pope and the priests give
the blessings and get the ducars
We have good deal Of that SORT of thing
among us Protestants but we do enjoy the
privilege Of selecting our own pastors, read
ing our own Bibles, thinking our own
thoughts, and taking free fling with the
English language
Besides, we don't have to buy anybody's
soul out Of an imaginary Purgatory nor pay
for wax candles, beads, crosses, images,
masses, baptisms, burials, chIistenings, and
indulgences.
Moreover, we don't have to kiss anybody's
foot, nor believe that a priest can change a
bottle Of Madeira wine into the blood Of
God.
But as I was saying, the Roman Catholic
people are getting sore on this idea that they
are governed from Italy, by a set Of Secret
Societies, over which an Italian Arrays rules.
The Catholic laymen are writing to Catho-
lie editors for information on that subject
For example, here are q question and ans
