TAFT SAYS REFORMS
HAVE FAILED OF PURPOSE
RIames Radical Spirit in Politics for
Blocked Progress.

Seattle. Wash, Sept. 9.-Former
President William H. Taft, today told
the American Bankers association in
convention here, that practically all Of
the radical reforms attempted in con-
nection with politics, railroads, and
big business" had failed of their pur-
pose, causing the nation to halt in its
progress, and that there must now
be a ''retracing to the line of modera-
ton and Justice"
In giving an economic and political
summary of the generation just clos
ing" Mr.. Taft said that the latest
outstanding feature appeared to be the
widespread growth of the spirit of the
brotherhood of pan, despite the, fact
that the war had shattered the dreams
Of universal peace.
In his opening remarks, Mr. Taft
outlined the growth of largt combina-
tions in business; their successful
adoption to politics, and how the
chase of the dollar had absorbed
all the people until they suddenly
realized they were almost in the grasp
Of a plutocracy 1t was then that
agitation for reforms swept the coun-
try, he said. and public indignation
became acute.

A NEW tissue" IN STATE POLITICS.

He who comes from another state, interested in civic and p-
htical affairs, finds much that is unique in North Dakota politics.
Probably nowhere are there so few real issues between factions
and nowhere are there more bitter personalities and such grave
charges of corruption with so little real basis.
The Democratic campaign Of last fall was upon "made-up" is
sues, almost wholly, so far as state affairs We're concerned: And
now in preparation for 1916 some strenuous efforts are being put
forth to discover and set forth issues for the state campaign.
One apparently we'll established fact is that a coerie of former
socialists, with some nondescllpt recruits are canvassing the state
getting Sc from prospective members of "te non-partisan union"
which is expected to dominate the policies of the state next year.
Then there is no doubt that the officers of the Cooperative Ex-
change are endeavo1ing to make an issue of the terminal elevator
proposition charging that the present state administration is CO.
"the farmers interests" This especial brand of interest" is ten
derby cared for by Anderson, Baker, Trovaten ct al; noble and
pure wet nurses for any infant moral movement. =.
But this is not the only ammunition prepared for the new"
political movementw which is to capture and renovate North Dakota.
Our Bismarck correspondent sent us a thrilling tale which he cor
sent it, would have laid the Courier-News liable under the libel
laws for damaging some men who heretofore have borne excellent
regulations, but which story we ran yesterday morning in expur-
is shortly to be given to a startled world, presumably through the
columns of George Plaza Smiths noted periodicals and such 9TH
this has to do with a printing combine" and the main points of
is are further elucidated in our news columns.
The Courer-News stands ready to join with any forces which
make war upon civic evils and political corruption, but these cock
and bull stories, mares nests fabricated out of rumors for political
ends, and these vitrolic attacks upon men merely because someone
wants a political job awakens no sympathy in us.
Next years campaign in North Dakota ought to be fought upon
real issues, not upon filth, rot, dirt, smut personalities and Bill
G~ngsgate of the "outs" who want to get en-. The fate of He'll
ment ought to teach some sense to others but probably will not.
Not being attacked in this new exposure" the Courrier-News
cannot be suspected of defending itself when we advise all citizens
to be slow in asserting to wild runnors of corruption and graft in
which previously reputable citizens are accused. If this new at
tack is originated by John Andrews, and we suspect it is, it may
be said that it will come with less weight than if it eminated from
one less rash in jumping at conclusions, someone slower in forming
opinions derogatory to his fellow men. 1t would be we'll also for
those of us who are quick in our suspicious to remember the well
known lines of Bobby Burns:
"Oh wad the power O gifte gle us
To see ourselves" etc-Fargo Curriel-NeWs.

ONLY TERMINAL
ELEVATOR Law
IS HELD Up

Bismarck, June 9.-Loftus and the
Equity Exchange were successful in
securing the necessary number of sig
ners to refer the terminal elevator bill.
Petitions filed at 6 o'clock to night
with the secretary of state aggregate
5000. The immigration bill received
7,645. The terminal bill will be re-
ferred to the voters at the next cleo
ton for their approval or rejection.
Attorney Sullivan of Mandan, for
mer law partner of James Hanley, ap-
pointed by Gov. Hanna to the district
bench, accompanied by "Kid" Winters,
agent for a Minneapolis brewing CON-
pany, filed petitions asking for the re-
fering of the bill making agents of
brewing companies b~ootleggers. Their
petitions were brought to the secre-
tary of states office in a grain sack.
They were found to contain 8,668 sign
ers.
The deficiency bills received varying
numbers of signers, ranging from g.
900 to 1900. AS a result, there will
be no necessity for a special session
by the legislature as none Of the ap-
preparation bills are held up. It now
appears that Hellstrom made a flat
failure. The secretary Of states place
will receive and count all petitions
mailed to the office and bearing the
postmark of June 8. This will add
some names, and the immigration bill
may also be referred. The Knauf-
Seiler-Buck and jamestown coterie
failed apparently in their efforts to
hold up the asylum buildings.
