BY proclaiming a license system Of

d necessary step in promoting food
production, President Wilson again
acknowledges the wisdom Of the posi-
.tion Of the Nonpartisan league. On
December 4, 1917, he urged Congress
to grant the Administration power to
carry out general price fixing, and
since Congress has never given this
power, the President, unable to wait
longer, has gone ahead to do what
can be done with the license plan.
Immediately following our declara-
ton Of war the Nonpartisan league
drew up statement of what it con-
sidered would best promote our ef-
ficiency in war. AT the September
conference in st. Paul, this state-
rnent was added to and made more
specific; also it received the indorse-
ment Of the many representatives Of
organized labor present. That these
steps have been Of great service TO

for the United States Reclamation
Service, says that 80 per cent of the

Federal Reclamation Best.
A careful survey of the cost Of the
fifteen largest government reclamation
projects and the fifteen largest pro-
jects built and run by private cor
porations shows why the discomfort
exists. The government improvements
cost an average of SAT per acre, and
the farmers who benefit by it, pays
no interest; the private companies
projects cost $67 an acre and the
farmer is forced to pay 6 per cent an
nually on that cost.

Another contingent Of Bottineau
county boys to the number of forty
one left for Camp Lewis last Satur-
day morning where they will take the
preparatory course in the great school
Of arms. Friday evening the boys
were entertained at the movies, after
which dance at the Commercial club

ment. They were escorted to the de-
pot Saturday morning by one Of the
largest concourses Of our citizens
which has ever assembled on any SIM
liar occasion, where they were enter
tanned by some excellent music by the
Souris high school band. And so,
amid the cheers and acclaim Of the as
sembled populace, these young men,
like their comrades gone before, took
their departure on the first stage of
the long journey which they hope and
expect will end when, with the allied
troops, they enter the Hun capitol as
victors.

The engineers of the Reclamation
service have done wonderful things
for the good of the American nation.
They have constructed at a cost of
$120,000,000, a series Of projects that
have brought water to $1,750,00O ac-
res, or 27,000 farms, and when the
thirty projects now under way are
completed, more than 100000 acres
of farming lands in is states will be
brought under cultivation which knows
no drouths to interfere with it's steady
production.
Hits at Commercial Bribery.
Te startling condition of commercial
bribery in vogue in all parts of the
country, as shown in a special report
Of the Federal Trade Commission, is
cited as another argument for govern
ment operation, where this feature is

says the Commission, stake the form
of commission for alleged services, of
money and gratuities and entertain
ments Of various sorts, and of loans
of money-all intended to influence
employees in the choice Of materials.
In specific cases on which reports
were made it was found that liquor,
cigars, meals, theater tickets, val
liable presents and other valuable ar
ticles were given to employees in re-
turn for their recommendation Of GER
tain goods. Two companies that were
fragrant offenders were ordered by
the Commission to refrain from these
practices.
