WOULD AMEND SEAMEN'S BILL

WOULO AM SEHmS EN- BILL
1t is broadly limited at the White
House that the President will ask
Congress at its next session to re
peal the more important provisions
of the Scamen's bill. When Congress
passed that measure, Secretary Red
field and Assistant Secretary Sweet
both Democrats, went to the White
House and begged President Wilson
to veto the bill. They warned him
of what would happen, told him nc
legislation more injurious to Ameri
can shipping and, in the end, to Amer
lean seamen, could be passed, and
presented facts and figures to sustain
their contentious. The president
waved them aside and signed the bill
Now that the Pacific Mail Steamship
vessels have been driven from the
trans-Pacitic trade and the Dollar
Line ships have sought British regis
try, and it is evident that no trans
oceanic line can live under this law,
the President will ask Congress tc
amend it. In other words, now that
the horse has been stolen, he wi
ask Congress to lock the barn door.

GROWTH.

There seemed to be indisputable
evidence that Bismarck's population
would reach at least 1000. That it
fell short a few hundred of this figure
is.no reason for complaint.
The method of taking the census
under the present law is crude. AS
SCISSORS are busy making valuations
and securing names is merely a side
isue. The enumeration in Bismarck
did as we'll as anyone could under
conditions, but there seems to- be
every indication that if more time and
help had been allowed more names
would have been added to the census
rolls.
But after all a few hundred more
or less is mot a matter of great con-
Germ. The world takes figures com
piled at a state census with a grain
of salt. Some states are abolishlng
census taking severy five, years be-
cause of the gburdensome expense.
There Is a fairly. exact formula that
can be used for gauging population
every five years without making an
actual count. Minnesota recently de-
cided not to take Il state census,
realizing that the information that
could be secured was not worth the
cost.
In North Dakota the census takers
are poorly paid, so there is no special
inducement to run down every per
SON. ~
Bismarck, however, will generally
be known as a city Of 1000 persons
There is a large transient population
which properly cannot be placed upon
the census rolls, but from which the
city derives as much benefit as from
its legal residents. "7p 70 ~,4!- &ts,
There is one thing that Bismarck
needs most, and that is population in
+ Burleigh county beyond the corporate
( limits of the city. There are thous'
ands of vacant acres capable

soon as this land is under the pillow,

Or. a..,.s... b..
All efforts of the various civic bod,
les should be directed toward devel-
oping the agricultural pursuits Of the
county and the city's development
will follow as surely as the day does
the night.
T. The industrial fair planned by a
corporation Of Bismarck's public splr-
tied citizens will assist greatly in
this respect. What Burleigh county
needs is a paid county agent work
ing twelve months in a year stimulat-
ing immigration and better farming
methods. The number of silos should
be doubled and the corn acreage ire
bled. A county agent could work up
the industrial exposition and be useful
In a thousand other ways in assisting
in building up the community.
Bismarck's future depends solely
upon the rich agricultural country at
its doors. Our efforts must be direct
ed in building that up and encourag-
ing settlers. One family on a farm
in this vicinity is. worth more to Bis.
marck than ten in the city.
The commercial clubs of this sec.
ton of the state should get together
and consider ways and means to bring
to an early test the petitions filed re
emily suspending until the fall of 1916,

State Thomas Hall in receiving the
petitions containing many names
without proper Identification struck
a blow at the welfare Of the state
