What Is a Truism?
Essays of Elia.)

essays OF Ella
If we must naturalize that porten-
tiOus phrase. a truism, it were we'll
that we limited the use of il. Every
commonplace or trite observation is
not a truism. For example, A good
name helps a man on in the world.
This is nothing but a simple truth,
however hackneyed. 1t has a distinct
subject and predicate. But when the
thing predicted is involved in the term
of the subject, and so necessarily in
vOlved that by no possible conception
they can be separated. then it becomes
a truism; as TO say. "A good name is
a proof Of a mans estimation of the
world" We seem to be saying some
thing when we say nothing. I was de-
riding to F. some knavish tricks
of a mutual friend OF ours. "If he did
so and So was the reply, ''he cannot
be an honest man." Here was a gen
uine truism, truth upon truth, infer
ence and proposition identical; or
rather a dictionary definition usurp-
ing the place OF an inference.
ONE Of our desires is to save up
enough money so that when we get
old we can see the game and not have
to read the bulletins.

EQUITY LEADERS
IN QUEER MOVE.

Although leaders of the North
Dakota Society of Equity recently
accepted the proposal by the South
st Paul Live Stock Exchange to
come here for fair and impartial
investigation of the methods of all
the firms constituting the Exchange,
methods or of the books of the va
chage, in the following statement,
review the case and submit to the
rank and file of the farmers making
up the membership of the Society of
Equity the question as to whether
or not their committee has played
fair with them or with the Exchange
The statement follows:
The South St.Paul Live Stock Ex-
change made an agreement with the
North Dakota Society of Equity at
meeting held at Bismarck in Febru-
airy last to send special committee
to South St. Paul for the purpose of
making a thorough investigation of
the methods employed as we'll as the
record books of the commission
firms constituting the Exchange.
This agreement stipulated that the
Live Stock Exchange was to appro-
pirate $3.50 for the expenses of the
Equity committee of seven men,
bers, who were to go to South st.
Paul without bias and make an i'm
partial investigation of all the firms
doing business there. The $3.50 ex-
pense money was forwarded to the
Equity committee through ]. M. An
derson, a member of the committee
prior to their leaving North Dakota.
Notwithstanding the absolute frank
ness of theLive Stock Exchange in
all it's efforts this committee ar
rived in St. Paul on March 10 and
| went into closed and secret session,
at the same time notifying the Live
Stock Exchange that they would not
be able to meet the Exchange until
the 15h. After five days of secret
parlying they brought forth set
of resolutions, the principal one of
which endorsed one of the commits
sion firms as being worthy the pat
ronage of the members of the So
ciety of Equity This endorsement
was given without having made an
examination of the methods en-
ployed by, or the account books of
any of the various firms constitut-

SECTION LINE ROADS.

The new commonwealth of the
west often make mistakes on mat
ters of public policy that they have
to reverse later at considerable ex-
pense.
of government impracticable or un-
wise ideas often gain credence
where experience would have shown
their folly.
Such a mistaken idea is gaining
a great deal of ground in parts of
Montana, including Phillips county,
in the administration of roads. That
idea is that the natural, heaven de-
signed location for loads is on the
section lines. There is great cry
in the northern part of the state
for new roads and the changing of
old ones to the checkerboard of the
section line plan.
There is not so much to be said
against that style of roads in some
parts of the country where the
. level plains stretch for miles in all
directions, but in Montana the sec
lion line road system has no excuse
for being.
Already some more eastern states
are cutting new highways on natur-
al lines at large expense and aban-
doning section line roads that have
been long maintained.
A road is established to make it
as easy and quick to get from one
place to another. Anything that
makes it harder to travel that dis
lance or that makes the road longer
than necessary is antagOnistic to
the very purpose of the road itself.
The section line road not only in
creases distance that must be trav-
eled and does it at the expense of
ease in travelling also.
The diagonal road following the
nat lral contour of the country so as
to make the grades as easy as posi-
BILE is the natural, common sense
road
There should be main roads con-
meeting the main points of travel in
any certain region following the
easiest trail between those points.
The system of branch roads from
these should be placed where they
would accommodate the most travel
with the least trouble.
There is no advantage that can
be given for the general adoption OF
he section line road system and
Eventually the welfare Of the peo-
pie along the roads will lead to the
changing back of many of these
section roads to the lines of least re-
sistance. No one ever saw rail
road build it's roadbed on section
ines. NO road builders of any great
reputation ever planned their routes

membership and feels that any of
the commission houses doing bust
ness that will not permit examina-
ton of it's methods and account
books is not worthy of patronage.
It is strange commentary on
the methods of the Society of Eq-
uity to know that its officers, agents
and committee have continuously
secretly dealt with firm here
whose methods have been seriously
questioned by the authorities of the
Exchange.
The rank and file of the Society
Equity is composed of honest farm
ers, but some of the leaders of
that movement are professional agi-
tators and organizers and very
many of their methods are exceed
ingly queer. 1t is believed here that
when once the searchlight of honest
investigation is turned on these Of
fcers and their efforts to secure
patronage for one firm only and
thus throttle competition, revela-
tions of a very startling character
will be made. The farmers should
look carefully after their own inter-
ests and see if they are getting
square deal. The South St. Paul
Live Stock Exchange has earnestly
endeavored to foster the live stock
interests of the Northwest by trying
to secure another packing plant

that they should be the pathways of
our travel. Rivers never follow Sec
ton lines and no one builds irriga-
ton bitches on section lines.
1t is just as important that road
traffic should flow with as little OBJ
struction or hindrance as possible as
it is that the water in ditch should
be allowed to run down hill.
The man most concerned in the
best system of routing roads is the
producer who has to haul his out
put to the market or railroad over
wagon roads. And yet he is often
the man who is responsible for the
cry to put the roads on section lines.
