The Happy Man.
abraham Cowley.)


Upon the whole matter, ac-
count a person who has a mod
crate mind and fortune, and lives
in the conversation of two or
three agreeable friends, with little
commerce in the world besides,
who is esteemed we'll enough by
his few neighbors that know him,
and is truly irreproachable by
anybody; and so, rather health
full, quiet life, before the great in
conveniences of old age, goes
more silently out of it than he
came in (for | would not have
him so much as cry in the exit;
this innocent deceiver of the
world, as Horace calls him, this
"muta persona" l take to have
been more happy in his part than
the greatest actors that fill the
stage with show and noise, nay,
even than Augustus himself, who
asked with his last breath
whether he had not played his
farce very we'll.

OCCASION FOR REJOICING,

Every patriotic citizen must rejoice
over the easing of the situation be-
tween this nation and Germany. Out
of the negotiations now pending
should develop better spirit and a
re.establishment of the humane prin-
ciples OF international law.
United States wants the good will
Of Germany and in the present con-
flict..-.the ~imperia1. oyernnent needs
our friend ship.
Just how far Germany is going to
abandon her submarine warfare. is
notyknOwn. If the policy jpf secrecy
bad been adopted earlier in Our ne
gOtiations, results would have been
more easily Obtainable. The frequen-
cy Of notes and their attendant pub
licity were not conducive to results.
One crisis has been passed safely
and a nation breaties easier. The
solution serves to emphasize the fact
that Germany entertains only the
kindliest feelings toward the United
States. Her promise to protect nell-
trails on unarmed ships indicates how
highly the Teutons regard our friend
ship. There should be no deviation
from a policy of strict neutrality.
Now that Germany has modified her
submarine Warfare, English interfer-
ence with American commerce should
be stopped.
The Wilson administration should
insist as firmly upon1 this issue as it
has upon the other. ~

than to cover the actual cost of serv'
ice. This ruling abolishes the rev.
enue feature of the oil inspection law
and depriyes the state of $4,000
annually.
Several unpaid bills of the Burke
administration are legacies of the
present regime that must be met by
taxation. Then, in addition, there is
always a slight increase each year in
legislative appropriations, which, O.!
course must be provided for.
North Dakota's state tax, however
is not burdensOme. NO state in the
Union which has equal wealth and
resources has a smaller levy. The
constitution fixes the state rate fol
general expenses at four mills, which
compared with other states, is exceed
ingly low, especially SO when the
small valuation of property for taxa
ton purposes is taken into consid
Grafton.
TO the individual tax payer the in
creases will not be noticeable. The
board has equalized and CAREFUL,
spread assessments so as to place the
tax burden where it justly belongs.
1t is rank misrepresentation to as
cribe the natural increases to extray
agance in the actual running ex
penses Of the state government. A.
has been said before, the necessit!
for more income is caused solely by
the loss of revenue through reduced
oil inspection fees and increased ap
preparations. ''
The cost of city and county govern
ments causes the chief taxation bur.
den in this state This, too, is readil,
explained when the rapid progress
made in local improvements through
out the entire length and breadth OF
the state is taken into consideration
No one can successfully maintain
that the four mills exacted by the
state government upon present valua
tions is unreasonable

Editor Tribune:

Editor Tribune:
Dear sir: Allow me to reply to "A
Little Come Back" in yours of the 4th
instant. l have been correspondent
of the Tribune for thirty years and
for the Forum and Twin City papers
for many years. am not one who
deals in dope" or sensation. Before;
sending in news ! make it my busi-i
ness to ascertain the truth.
Let us see what the conditions real,
ly3 are regarding the girls who are
working on the Slope county books I
The original contract was let to Slope
county people, who sublet to a man
from Montana named Mohr, who came
here about June with some young men
and women from his home town.
These were afterwards joined by
girls from St. Paul and Minneapolis,
some of whom were young, just out of
school and not we'll acquainted with
the Wiles of the world. tits common
news that all the help was paid to the
first of July. 1t is also understood
that Mr.. Mohr guaranteed the helps
board at the hotel. When July
pay became due the sub.contractor
left town and has remained absent
Sometime about the middle of August
two Of the Minneapolis girls came to
see Mrs. Foley and me saying that
they were getting uneasy about their
pay and that many strange rumors
were around town. We advised the
girls not to pay attention to what had
been told them, but to allow the mat.
ter to rest for reasonable time and
If they were not paid to come back
and we would try and aid them. About
the 26th Of August the girls came to
US again and said they scarcely knew
what to do; that their boarding house
keeper told them that she did not feel
ike keeping them longer; that they
did not like 10 writerto their parents
asking for money. ] advised them not
to worry REGARDING their board bills,
that I, personally, would guarantee
the board, which I did at once AS
they wanted further assurance I told
them / would consult Attorney Swi-~
hart.
They said they had no money to
pay attorneys fees, they We're told
that Mr.. Swihart would make no
charge, but advised that the books be
attached. This was also the ad";ce
OF others who knew something about
conditions. Papers for attachment
were prepared but the service of them
was put over from GGy to day with
promises from Mr.. Mohr that he would
be here to make settlement. Finally,
when all hope was gone, the books
were attached. 7 will tell MY dope
friend what the result is going to be.

usual attacks upon The state BOARD of

OF the loss in oil inspection fees, a
