New York. December 4th. 1918.

New York, December 4th, 1918.
Editor The Times, Pennington, Mo.
just now it is extremely important
that the health, happiness and morale
of our military forces be kept right up
to the 100 per cent mark.
IN camp here, or overseas, the men
need letters-letters with the real
home touch and above allNhe mother
touch.
Secretary of War Baker and Mr..
Raymond B. Fosdick of the War De-
partment, Commission on Training
Camp Activities, feel that such letters
will be of inestimable value. For that
reason id-December has been desig-
mated as "letters-from-home" pc
riod.
TX Great publicity and news interest
will attach to this event from coast to
coast. Important statements from
Mr.. Baker and Mr.. Fosdick, an adj
vance news story and typical moth
er's letter full of real heart-gripping
human interest, will be supplied you

EGGS BY THE POUND

For several years the plan of sell
ing eggs by the pound instead of by
the dozen has been agitated among
the Canadian grocers and in some
towns the system has already been
put in practice.
The only obstacle in the way of
unanimous Endorsement of the plan is
that the public has not been educat-
ed to buy in this way" In view Of
the wide variation in the size of eggs,
the consumer would quickly realize
that the weight system would be
fairest to- all concerned.

WITH THE EDITORS
DAVE SPILLS THE BEANS.

A few days ago, certain league papers heralded
to the world with great big scare head lines that
Geo. J. Smith of Plaza had "come OUT for the
Nonpartisan state ticket. Of course, they all
knew we'll nuf how much Plaza George amounts
to, which is about as much as two hoops on tin
can, but they played 'er up purity strong to make
the league members think that George is big
man and that his Coming OUT for Frazier was
significant. ..
Which was all we'll and good as far as it went.
George gained little free publicity, and even had
some of the papers saying few good words about
him. (Which, by the way, don't happen to George
very often) Anyway, all was lovely-and Plaza
George felt purity good about it. For awhile.
Them all at once along comes Dave Larin Of the
Parshall Post one of the strongest Townley sup
porters in seven states, and spills the beans all
over the clean tablecloth neverything Dave and
George have lived neighbors for quite spell
and this is what Dave said about George in last
weeks issue Of the Parshall Post:
"All they have to do is to feed Smithy little
advertising and he will reverse himself, blow hot
or cold, jump through hoop, lay down, roll over
or otherwise play the clown. 1t isn't much won
der Smithy is down-and- outer, an object of ridi
cule and suspicion
How is that one, George? We hope it won't
cause George to come out" for Doyle!-Well.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR OWN COUNTY
COUNTY SETTLES DEBT.
Half Century Controversy Ends by Common

Half-Century Controversy Ends by Common
Consent.
Springfield, Mo-, Sept 29-The proposal
that St. Clair county compromise it's long out
standing railroad bond Indebtedness appears
to have carried in yesterdays election by
majority Of more than 400 votes The pro- v
posal, which will end controversy of forty
eight years. standing, is that the county will
pay S585OOO on an accumulated debt Of $4.-
100000. A proposal to compromise the debt
for $3.50, 900 was rejected by the taxpayers
wear ago. The original bonds were issued by
the county in 1870 to build the Tebo & Neosho
railroad, but were repudiated when the rail-
road company failed to construct the road.
The matter has been subject Of bitter con-
troversy ever since, the bond holders suing
and receiving judgments and the county re-
sisting payment. Judges of the county courts
have several times served jail sentences for
failure to carry out orders of the federal
court toward paying the Indebtedness.
Since the judgments were outlaWed every
ten years unless renewed, the bond holders
have renewed the litigation every nine years,
the original bonded debt of $23100O, mount
ing to the present total Of $4,O 00,000.-Jour-
nal-World, Lawrence, Kan.
q e..
The above news dispatch records the closing
chapter in one county's sordid experience with a
constitution which made 'the sky the limit for
bonded indebtedness.
What of our own county?
Burlegh county's bonded indebtedness at the
beginning Of October was $269,314.26. Of that
amount 1000 has just been paid off from the
sinking fund $4,000, due January l, 1923, and
SIC, 900, due January l, 1927 represent refunding
bonds issued to take up outstanding road war
rants. and the remainder consists Of seed grain
bonds due in 1919.
Burleigh county at the present time is compare
lively free from debt. We have, however, an as
sessed valuation of $9,134,806, and under the pro
uosed mo limit" amendment to the constitution
which the league asks the voters to approve at thu
November election, we may bond up to tha
amount, for the financing of any scheme which
may appear good to our board of county commits
sioners.
Our tax rate for state county and school pur
poses has been as high as 652 mills in the count!
and II mills in the city of Bismarck within tn
last two years, and the revenue so levied has bee'
applied almost entirely to current running ex
penses. We have had no large bonded debt to re
tire; there has been no necessity for the accumu
lation of large sinking fund. For the curren
year but 81 ATS is asked for the interest and sink
ing fund, as against $4,000 in 1917. Burleig
county affairs, in spite of generous investmen
in roads and bridges, are fast approaching tn
stage where a reduction in the tax rate can b
made But we will never see lower taxes if tn
upon wholesale bonding campaign, with the SIX
the limit and under board of county commits
sioners who are pledged to uphold the socialist
program of the organization which stands sponso
for such dissipation of public funds.

county call their citizens to meet at their respective school houses on Fri day, Aug. 23rd, at o'clock p. m, and sign cards which are in the hands of the directors and to further organize the districts in order that the work may be carried on more successfully.
 The plan provides that every farmer shall be solicited to give a bushel at harvest time of the most abundant crop in his county, or its value. The farmers will haul their gift bushels to market and sell them. The funds to thus be collected will be deposited in local banks, to be for warded by them to the officials who may be designated by the national trustees. The gift bushels will be vailing, or even at a premium, and it is expected that the local dealer will handle them without cost. Storage and transportation costs being elim- mated and there being no expense of administration, the proceeds will be net, and the giver can be assured that every cent of the gift will go to the cause for which it is intended.
