 Refers to Hard Times
 Goveronor Henderson begins his mes- 3Fage by referring to the hard times Brought on by the war in Europe, stat Ing that among all problems which now ace the legislature. none equals in i'm portance the widespread distress Drought on by the war.

 Abolition of Offices
 Regarding the abolition of offices soveI11or Henderson states that this is ommendable and should be carried into fleet, but that the financial benefits lerefrom would still be insufficient.

Here ho performs the dual functions of minister of war and chief of tho general staff. The general flashed into public notice with his memorable defense of the German army in the Zabern debate in the Reichstag.
 This war Is not war of aggression said General Von Falkenhayn, taking up the causes of the conflict. 'Jt Is not a war brought about by military caste or military party in Germany. but one of self-defense. As soldier, I cannot. of course, talk on the political aspects or the causes of the war but can speak from q military standpoint.

FRIDAY, APR. l6, 1915.
M. O. HOUSES GET ONE
THIRD BUSINESS

A statement was published in
a recent issue of one of the Fargo,
North Dakota, daily papers that
should make not only the retail
merchants but every other man
and woman of that state stop and
think.
This statement came from the
State Tax Commission and had
reference to the money going out
of the state of North Dakota to
the great mail order houses of
the city. One paragraph in this
statement was as follows:
1T is estimated that one-third
of the goods and merchandise
consumed in this state come from
catalogue houses. The assess
able value of that class of prop
erty is about $8,000,000. Placing
the same burden of taxation up
on this business as is borne by
the mercantile business of North
Dakota, they should pay not less
than $15O,000. 1t is probable
that a thorough investigation
would disclose that a tax of from
100000 to $50O,0OO would not
be unjust"
In the first place, the statement
that one-third of the merchandise
consumed in that state comes
from catalogue houses is aston
ishing, and no doubt, the people
of that state, who have been pat
ronizing these mail order houses
would be astonished if they knew
that they were losing the vast
sum of money that they are in
their state through their custom
of patronizing these concerns.
The legislature of the state of
r North Dakota, just like other
state legislatures, finds one of
: the great problems is to obtain
funds to supply the needs in the
state, and surely, regardless OF
the fact that North Dakota is a
great rich state, the people OF
that commonwealth could use tc
great advantage the amount of
tax mentioned in this article,
100000 to $500, 1000 annually.
But North Dakota is not the
only state that is feeling this
:; pressure. Every other state in
the Union is feeling the effect of
the same competition.
} This statement in the Fargo
: paper says further: 1.-THE tax
commissioners of many states,
including your own, are at work
upon this problem and it is hoped
that practical and constitutional
method for compelling these great
corporate interests to pay their
share of the burden of taxation
to support the communities
throughout the country where
they transact business. THE
