HIGH COST OF
LIVING SHOWN
GOVERNMENT
Expenses of the Administration
Have Mounted Almost Half
Million in Two Years

Mounting living costs are reflected
IN a comparative statement OF adj
ministrative expenses for the last two
years, showing that it cost $4U9, o.. IL
more to govern the state of North La.
kOta for the eleven months ending
June l, 1918, than for the same per
iod ending June l, 1916. The Total
cost OF state government from July l.,
1915, to June 1, 1916, was $l,936,S66.2l.
For the same period, ending June /,
1916, the cost was S2,3UU,S31 IL. Tne
increase in Administrative expenses
purely was $36S, 1890, and there is
added to this $45,732.26, making u
grand total advance of $4U9, 7V3lb.
Among the many factors which
have contributed to the higher cost of
governing the state during the last
year are the increased cost of main
tanning the states charitable and pen
al institutions, due to advances in the
cost Of food stuffs and other sup
plies. The state auditors office cost
sr5, 1913 for the last eleven months,
as compared with $40, 409.9S two years
ago; The STATE treasurers office SHOWS
a slight decrease, $12,O09.y0, as com
pared with slO,5l5.44. The commits
sioner of agriculture and labor dur
ing the last eleven months has spent
$16776.53, as compared with $S,S39.3l
two years ago. The dairy commission
er's expenses were $l0,594.47, as com.
pared with, $S,609.16; the attorney
generals office, $32,969.17, as com
pared with $13,6S2,73; the superin-
tendent of public instruction, $780,
OO5.16, as compared with $24,025.13
Included in the advanced admins
trative costs are $54,32754, expended
in salaries and other expenses by the
state highway commission during the
last year, and $20,520.29 used by the
state grain inspection department.
Both Of. these are items of expense
which could not have been incurred
by the former administration, these
departments having been created by
legislative acts of 1917.

Mrs. Harriet Chalmers Adams, one
of Americas best known explorers

and forth over both continents, her
journeys of more than 100000 miles
having carried her into many Outland:

Mrs. Adams spent more than year
on the French front, returning the

duty lay in preaching war to America.
II knew that we must 60 in" said
Mrs. Adams today. But was afraid.
Returning from that land Of heroism
and self-sacrifice, America seemed to

Divided into little units of nationali-
ties, money-mad and Indifferent, it
seemed on the surface And what a
wonderful revelation it has BEEN
this year of war! Terrible as the war
is and will be, to America it will
be a great blessing, for in this war
America has found itself, and it will
emerge from the war a nation united
as it never was before. We will have
an era of Americanization which will
not countenance the building up Of
foreign communities within our boun.
daries. . We will become nation one

for the inevitable. There are so

Of these things, and SO few who will

ed our work, to once more cross Al

there, after the war. Much OF the
good work the French have done has
benn undone; chaos has been restored
out of order. and, anyway, we feel
that our work lies here And ! am
quite confident that It will be work
fully as interesting and as gratifying
as we could find in any other part Of

Has Visited Every State.
When Mrs. Adams completes her
tour of North Dakota and South Dako.
ia, she will have visited at least once
every state in the nation, since her
return from the French front. She
comes here from northwestern Min
nesota, where she visited the smaller
towns and the Indian reservations. AT
one point she talked to a large as
semblage of Chippewas through an
interpreter She has reason to rear
that even here German propaganda is
at work. and wherever possible she
speaks direct to the aborigines. While
here she will visit Berthold and Stand.
ing Rock reservations to find mater.
ial for future articles.
Mrs. Adams is young woman who
radiates intellect, and who is at the
same time a wholesome, human little
body, whose appeal to the tens of\
thousands who have heard her can
easily be understood. She has been
in who's Who" for a great many
years. Born in Stockton, Calf, and
privately, in 1899 she married
Franklin Pierce Adams, another ma.
tive of Californian. who has become
equally distinguished as an engineer,
a scientist and a man Of letters. In
1900 Mrs. Adams travelled through
Mexico, studying Latin-American af'
fairs. In 1903 she began three.
years journey through Central and
South America, travelling 100000 miles,
visiting every known country, and
reaching many points before unknown
to any white woman. For several
years following she lectured in the
United States upon South America.
Her latest travels have included in.
vasions of the widest sections of
Africa and Asia, and only recently
she penetrated to sections of Haiti
where the aboriginal African is still
to be found uncontaminated by any "a:
cial admixture. She is member Of
the National Geographic society, and
q contributor to the National Geogra.
phic magazine and other well known
periodicals.
