TAKE TARIFF OUT OF
POLITICS" URGES BROWN
OF TARIFF COMMISSION

Lewis K. Brown, field secretary of
the tariff commission league, is in Bis
marck today for a conference with
the legislation committee of the COM
mercial club, in regard to the popular
movement to take the tariff out of
politics by mean of a permanent,
n%on-partisan commission.
Howard H. Gross of Chicago is
president of the organization. He is
the same Gross who was president of
the National Soil Fertility league that
persuaded congress to pass the Smith
Lever bill for the extension of agri.
culture.
James J. Hill is chairman Of the adj
visory committee, and other members
r Thomas A. Edison, E. P. Ripley,
f. D. Coburn, John MITCHELL, John V.
FarWell and others of national prom
inence.
"This is my first visit to the great
northwest" said Mr.. Brown last night,
land I greatly regret that engage
ments in the east will not permit my
making a longer stay in Bismarck.
From what l have been able to
learn during my short visit, I believe
that the business men of North Da-
kota are at one with practically every
man l have talked with in the west.
MANY of the fruit growers. lumber
men and manufacturers of the north
west are pessimistic about getting any
relief from conditions that they state
are we'll nigh intolerable, but they
hail with enthusiasm a. plan whereby
tariff enactments shall be made in
the open.
Everyone" continued Mr.. Brown,
lis tired Of allowing the politicians
to use the tariff as a means Of getting
into power. A gentleman said to me
yesterday: with one or two excep-
tons, the passage of a tariff bill un-
der Jul old system has meant the loss
of congress to the party Tin power.
This keeps the country stirred up all
the time and we are ready to demand,
a rest
'This man was right. 1t seems
most extraordinary that the country
has taken so long to wake up, but
the siren voice of the campaign ora
tor has lulled the people to rest when
ever votes were needed. ?
ITO quote the exact language" said
Mr.. Brown, the stated purpose of the
tariff commission league is to create
and crystalline a public sentiment that
will demand of congress the establish
ment and permanent maintenance o.
a n%on-partisan tariff commission OF
the highest personnel, with long ten
r of Office and adequate salaries;
the commission to have broad powers
covering Investigation, gathering OF
tariff data, making reports and recon-

PAYNE HEIRS RETAIN
LAND WORTH $45,000

Grand Frks, N. d., Nov. 15.-A claim
for $45 900 worth of Nelson county
lands, prosecuted by S. H. Cranmer of
Minneapolis as a trustee Of the de-
funct Union Banking company of Alb
erdeen, IS. D., was denied by Judge G.
IN. Cooley of the Grand Forks and
Nelson district courts, against the
claimants and in favor of the admins
traitor of the estate of John A. Payne
Of TarrytoWn, N. Y.
The suit brings to light an unusual
chain of events covering the trans
actions of the Union Banking com
pany of Aberdeen from a period be-
ginning in 1891 and extending over a
period OF years up to the dissolution
Of the bank in 1908, at the conclusion
of it's corporate existence, by the ter
mination of its charter, and continu-
ing till the present time by the action
of bank trustees in seeking to revive
their claim against the Payne estate.
Back in 1891 and 1898 John A.
Payne, a T%arrytown minister of the
gospel, made heavy deposits in the
Union Banking company's institution.
He was delivered certificates of depos-
it, which certificates were further
guaranteed by tax receipts, purchased
by the bank in several counties in
North Dakota. The purpose of deliv-
ering these tax receipts was to guar
antee to Payne the collection by him
self of interest and principal on the
certificates of deposit, the certificates
| r~1rnninr for fiVo Voara .. -
When tie certificates fell due the
bank failed to pay them and Payne
began the collection of his money
through continuing alive his tax
claims, paying taxes from year to
year, until he finally vas given tax
deeds to extensive lands in North Da-
kota.

other depredations. But, when ques-
toned, she always denied writing the
letters or denied any acts charged to
her.
IA short time ago she was arrested
on a larceny charge, but the case was
dismissed on condition that she be
taken to Rockford, Ill, to visit an
aunt, to see il a change Of locality
would not help.
It was not long, however, before she
was back. She was taken to a local
hospital and Wednesday night escap-
ed. Thursday she was placed in the
county Jail again.

best facilities can be secured the en-
tire distance.

best facilities a be secured the en-
tire distance.
The climate during the entire mo
toring season cannot be surpassed
anywhere, as during the summer the
days are long and balmy, without the
intense heat Of the routes further
south, while the nights are cool.
There is constantly a breeze, usually
from the south, making dust a thing
practically unknown and, above all,
there is no desert to cross.
Many Points Of Interest.
There is probably no other route
that has so many points of interest
and of so varied a character as this
route. 1t not only takes in the many
historic points Of the eastern states,
bu also follows tle shores of Lake
Erie and Lake Michigan, and after
leaving Chicago passes through the
Dell region Of Wisconsin and travers-
es the beautiful wood and lake regions
Of Minnesota, the great small grain
plains of eastern North Dakota,
through the magical Bad Lands of
western North Dakota-the gnome-
land of the continent-the fruit val
leys of Montana and Idaho and the
gorgeous and titanic Rocky noun
tains.
And it is the Little Missouri River
bridge at Medora that opens up this
wide variation of American scenic
beauty to the motorist. Heretofore
this stream has been a barrier that
compelled the tourist to have his car
taken across the railroad bridge by
loading it on a fiat cara provoking
interruption. This is now all eliminaI.
edit is gasoline power the entire
trip.
To the tourist the Medora bridge
will be especially interesting, as it
will be. indicative Of the rapid prog
ress that has been made in the last
frontier of the United States. In
crossing the bridge he can look ct
either shore and think that only rs
years ago the country was practically
unknown to white men aud that ]ndi.
ans and game roamed it in practically
their primitive state.

500 and Northern Pacific and to en-
able outside dealers to ship coal to
the capital city. The matter was
held under advisement by the board.
