An American Citizen First.

Former President William H.
Taft is meriting the esteem of
the American people by his fair
minded criticisms and discussions
Of the issues OF the day. Unlike
Mr.. Roosevelt, whose bitter de-
nunctions of the policies of the
present administration with es-
pecial reference to the affairs in
Mexico has made him the priv
attest of private citizens Mr..
Taft discusses the complications
of the diplomatic status of this
government with calmnesS and
without bitterness. In an adj
dress delivered before the WASH
iugton Association Of the United
States that they are now facing
war crisis and that come what
may, they must stand by the
President. There is nothing
partisan or bitter in such state
ment, but it is the utterauce of a
genuinely patriotic American.
Mr. Taft has been through the
trials and responsibilities that
surround the chief executive OF
this nation and, knowing where.
of he speaks, he wants us to
stand by the President. And
when the President shall act, "
declared Mr.. Taft, I'VE must
stand by him TO the end. Inthis
determination we may be sure
that all will join, no matter what
their European origin. All will
forget their differences in self
sacrificing LOYALTY to our COM
m)n flag and our common coun-
try" 1t is quite refreshing, in
these days of intense partisan

You will often find very fussy men
when 1t comes to buying a hat. With
them the weight of headgear Is Of
prime Importance, An ounce more or
less gives them the idgets when they
have made a rule of life to wear only
such and such weights on their heads.
So | keep the scales TO convince them.
1t is well that | do, 1t has settled
many an argument with a Crouch and
sold me many a hat.
You may call them queer for want
ing the exact weight they call for, or
within and not owe that weight, but
come to think 1t over they are not
m queerer than the men who rush
in here at the beginning of summer
demanding summer hcadgear because
they rHnply can't endure their heavy
winter hat any longer.
We'll they buy a straw and r.
iway perfectly satisfied they are pre-
pared for summer heat, And the hat
they buy? Why, by actual weight on
these very scales ii often weighs two
to four ounces more than the winter
hat they have been wearing. one Of
II good customers has regularly
shifted from a II ounce winter SLOUGH
to a Is ounce summer straw and has
been happy In the change"

New Leader Needed,

Members of the American Society Of
Equity need a new advocate for their
interests in this state. The way in
which the campaign was handled for
terminal elevators illustrates we'll that
nothing can be gained by blackmail-
ing and browbeating tactics.
The gentlemen who came from St.

North Dakota legislature. They be-
gan their campaign to get favors by
abusing the members, an almost un-
~precedented proceeding.

One Tax Commissioner

North Dakota does not need three
tax commissioners any more than q
cat needs three tails. Two years and
q half under the present system has
been an expensive experiment without
apparent results. Nothing has been
accomplished which could not have
been done under one commissioner.
Senator Heskel's bill, introduced
yesterday, should not meet with seri-
GUS opposition. The tax commission
er should, in fact, be secretary Of tho
board of equalization. There should
be the closest cooperation between
the commissioner and the members of
that board.
In order to achieve this end, the
commissioners should be Q recognized
expert In taxation matters. Not since
North Dakota has had . tax commits.
