fact that with a cut Of the non.pre-

about 38 percent, the debts of the
state will be paid by December 81,

next session makes additional appro.

Joseph Hare, after a lingering illness
OF several months.
Mrs. Hare vas a daughter of John
Reynolds. Was born at Cresco, Iowa.
April %, 1866, came with her par:
ents to Bismarck in an early day, and
was married to Joseph Hare in Jam
uary, 1884, since which time they
have been continuous residents of
this city. She left surviving her. q
husband, Joseph Hare, and her chill
dren, Joseph. Jr., John r., Paul. Irv.
ing, and Grace Hare. The other two.
children born of such marriage, Fran.
ces r. and Ruth, died some years
ago. Besides her W immediate

In Mrs. Hare's death, the Catholic
church loses a devout and consistent
member. The husband, q beloved

Within "A few months from the
party's birth a new atmosphere" he
says, began to pervade its councils
The fight against privilege was aban
doned. Anyone who now talked about
| privilege Or the distribution Of wealth
was called a visionary or a doctrin'
aire. In the disputes between the
consumer and the trusts, between ia
Dor and the trusts and between CAPT
tai and labor, the Progressive party
headquarters either kept silent or else
took the side OF capital"
When Pinchot, representing the
radicals of the group, protested to
Colonel Roosevelt at this mischievous,
reactiOnary Influence Of Treasurer
Perkins, Pinchot says that Roosevelt
replied:
II believe that the spirit, however
honest, which prompted the assault on
Perkins, is the spirit which, if it be
comes dominant in the party, means
that from that moment it is an utter
| waste of time to expect any good from
the party whatsoever, and that the
party will at once sink, and deserved
ly sink, into an unimportant adjulct
of the Debs government
So Perkins was continued as treas
|urer and the party literature varied
between eulogies of Perkins and the
steel and harvester trusts to attacks
on the principle of public ownership,
Pinchot concludes as follows:
THE Progressive program had
something of everything in it, from
the care Of babies TO the building OF
a. birchbarkr canoe. Yet it contained
little which dealt with the actual
problems Of the United States in any
but the most superficial manner.
1--WE may affirm, in the most earn
est way, that wages should be higher
and working conditions better; or that
honesty is the best policy; or that

and the dog the best friend Of man
But we cannot build a e party on
such. The public desires speciica

has been estimated would exist De
cember 81, 1915. This means that
December 81, 1915, unless the legisla-
ture shall make new appropriations,
that the state would have all debts
against it paid. Remember that all
of these liabilities estimated in the
first part of this article are based
on standing continuing ~approprla-
lions as made by previous legislatures
and none of the state officers have
power to change them. az
Revision Needed. w.
The levy;ng o. so-called mill tax
levies should cease and the present
ones on the statutes be revised. There
should be a budget made up for the
legislature to act on in the way OF
appropriations and this budget should
include every institution and every
branch of the state government.
There should be a small number OF
men to get up this budget, three or
five, and none Of them should be
members of any state board Or con.
nected in any way with any institu-
ton. They could do very valuable
work, could 60 to every department.,
see its needs, suggest retrenchments
that might be made and economies
practiced, and make recommends
tons that would be very valuable.
Now when the legislature meets it
is simply a grab by each institution
to get as much rs possible for fear
someone else will get more.) A board
of this kind would know very close
as to the probable revenues AID, Of
course, would not make recommends
tons in excess of the income of the
state. I".nJ
No one of the state officers have
anything to conceal and non of them
have done anything that they wish
to cover up. II all their actions
they have done that which they be-
lieve to be for the best interests OF
the people Of the state, and they
have been actuated only By the high
est and purest of motives. The state
is not bankrupt or anywhere near IT.
but standing and continuing approT
priatio1s have been made in years
gone by in exces OF the revenues
that can be raised IN a 4-mill levy on
our present assessed valuation. We
must cut down our out-gO to keep
within our income.
Sooner or later we must have faced
this problem and l believe that the
time to do it is now.
{ This article is all too long, but
ask the tax payers OF the state to
read it with an unbiased mind II
then to pass Judgment, not from the
standpoint of some special interest
that may he affected, but from the
broad standpoint as to the whole
state.
Sincerely,

fees and will thereby deprive the
state by December 81, 1914, of over
$50, 900. So, in the item of $4,000
given to the Educational institutions.
as stated ABOVE, and the 100000 item
of oil fees, the general fund is short
in 1914 by $4,000 that the state ad-
ministratiOn had every reason to ,eN-
pect would be paid into it. Should
the supreme court hold against TIL,
state when it shall come TO pass OF:
the oil inspection law, then for the
next two-year period the state gen
eral fund will be short about $240.'
900 that should come to it from the
oil inspection fees.
AS shown, the general fund for the
year ending December 81, 1915, will
be short $312,431.43 with a levy OF
3 mills on the dollar Of assessed val
%uation, but there would have been
but little shortage had it not been
for the $3S 5000, as stated given the
Educational institutions in 1913, aid
the large shortage caused by the re-
fusal of the oil companies to pay the
oil inspection fees.
