The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1918-01-24

Prefacing a quarter Of a column editorial with the statment
that it has mo desire to be a carping critic the Grafton Record
consumed the balance of the space in "carping" criticism of Gov
ernor Fraziers decision to call q special session Of the legislature
consult with the antiadministration press as to this and other Of
his official acts and to allow himself to be governed by their wishes
in the premises, but he has, no doubt, long since recognized his in
ability to please these reachonaries, as well as the utter futity
of trying to do so. So far as their attitude towards the state ad-
ministration is concerned 1t appears to ba clear case of "be id
if you do and be id if you don't"
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1918-01-24

In going through the archives Of the late car of Russia, the
bolsheviki discovered documents showing, beyond doubt, that for
a long time before his dethronment, the car and the German en-
peror were jointly planning to wipe out Socialists wherever found.
This news should go far towards endearing this precious pair of
potentates to the heart of the Grand Forks Herald.
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1918-01-24

The secretary Of the Eastern Bottineau. County National
Farm Loan Association, of this city, has just been advised by the
secretary Of the Federal Land Bank of st. Paul, that his bank is
now in position to take care of all farm loans that have thus far
hereafter be allowed. This condition was made possible by the
recent passage by congress of a measure which appropriated two
hundred million dollars for the purpose Of enabling the Farm
Loan banks to at once take up the seventy million dollars OF farm
tally assist the banks in continuing to make loans during the re
naming period of the war. The local officers Of the Eastern Bot
tineau County National Farm Loan Association are jubilant over
the enactment into law of this much needed legislation. as, in
many instances, it simply means the salvation of the farmers OF
North Dakota.

.DO NOT GO TOO FAR"

Under the caption Glow Far Back Shall We Go" the Minot
News, to considerable length, discusses the advisability of going
back in our manner Of living and dressing to the customs which
prevailed in the remote past in order that we may live the simple
life, as national food administrator Hoover suggests. After grave
ly considering the problem from almost every conceivable angle
editor Davis gives it up and concludes with the query:
But where shall we stop? If getting part way to the
primitive methods of~the past-is beneficial, would it not be
an Improvement to get still farther back, even to the place
where our ancestors lived close to the soil and enjoyed better
health and more vigorous mentality?
Well, as far as we are concerned, although not making any
claim to being an authority on the subject, we should say that
while we are willing to go as far back as the next one, still, in
where just short of the fgleaf period.

The speeches of the candidates

administration, favored prohibition
education and good roads. and the
usual division OF sentiment as to the
county government was manifest

OF the efficiency of the present sys-

A DISAGREEMENT ARISES
OVER REVENUE MEASURE
Treasury Submits Letter Protesting
Against Increases i'm Excess
Profits Tax Rates.

Washington Aug. 22.-Disagree-
ment arose again between the treas
ury department AMI the house ways
and means committee as to provis-
ions of the new $4,000 100000 rev.
enue bill, the treasury submitting n
letter protesting against increases in
the excess profits tax rates of the
present law.
The committee and the treasury
have reached an agreement as to an
SO per cent war profits tax based on
pre-war earnings, but have been un-
able to arrive at a common standing
on the method OF reaching excess
profits, which classification, it has
been estimated, will affect only
about 10 per cent OF the total cor
porations to be taxed
The treasury has asked that the
present excess profits law be in
cluded in the new bill with alterna-
tive war tax of 80 per cent. The
committee has tentatively agreed to
an eight per cent exemption. in ad-
dition to. a specific $4,000 exemp-
uon, on excess profits, with a tax of
40 per cent on profits between eight
per cent and 90 per cent and 60
per cent tax on all pronts exceeding
20 per cent. The committee sub
mitted its decision to the treasury
for its views. The treasury in its
letter, which was not made public
stood firm in it's position in opposi-
tion to increase of excess profits tax
There were indications, however.
that the committee would increase
the present rates by either the plan
that was tentatively agreed upon or
some modification. The committee
may change the deduction rate so as
to make il an exemption of ten per
cent, instead of eight, in addition to
the specific $4,000 exemption. 1t
was originally in favor of ten per
cent deduction, and 1t may return
to IL by some compromise action.
Both Chairman Kitchin and Secre-
tary McAdoo have stated that they
would "get together" on some mu-
tualiy satisfactory plan on this sub
ject.

ALLIES ADVANCE CONTINUES
OVER FRONT OF MANY MILES,
VICTORIES RESULT IN A
SHORTER BATTLE FRONT
Western Division Reduced 80 Miles,
We Have 30 Divisions
i'm France.

Washington, Aug 22.-Allied
successes on the Marne. in Picardy
and in Flanders in recent operations
have resulted in a contraction Of the
western battlefront Of more than SO
miles. General March, chief of staff.
announced. The allies in engage
ments conducted this week, he ad-
ded, have maintained their possess
sion Of the initiative by making at
tacks on limited fronts and at wide
ly separated points.
At the beginning Of the German
offensive in March the battle front
in France measured $50 miles; to-
day 1t is less than 200 miles in
length and the latest British gains
are reducing it further. General
March said he was without official
confirmation of the results Of the
British advance north of the Scarpe
and therefore would refrain from
comment.
Summarizing the results OF re-
cent operations he pointed out that
the Flanders salient had been fiat
tened out by the enemy retiring from
one to two miles on 14-mile front
on the plains of Roye the line had
been put well back of the old 1915
1917 line and between the Aisne and
the Disc the French have carried the
line forward four miles to the plains
surrounding the city OF Noyon which
is four miles beyond.
Capture of the town Of Frapelle
in the Vosges, the chief Of STAFF
said. had resulted in the elimination
of very sharp salient. This opera
ton was carried out by the fifth
American division which has been
under Maj. Gen. John f. Mcmahon.
Thirty-two American divisions
have arrived in France. General
March said. They are the 1st to
9Th, inclusive. of regulars; the 26th
27tb. 28th. 29th, 3Oth, 32nd. 33rd
35th, seth, 37th, 41st and 42nd ma
tional guard; and the 76th to S3rd
inclusive, and the S5th, seth, 9Oth
91st. 92nd and 93rd national army.
Transportation OF troops under
the enlarged military program is de
pendent in the main upon the ability
OF the government to secure ade.
quate shipping. General March
frankly said. While the shipping
boards deliveries were constantly
growing. more tonnage will have to
be chartered and hired to carry out
the present schedule. General March
mentioned incidentally that Brazil
had given the United States a vessel
for two trips without compensa-
ton.

keep up in the remaining counties
which scattering returns indicate
will be the case. Harrison will win
by majority of from 5000. to 90
900 making a second primary un-
necessary.
Senator Vardaman left for Wash
ington but before leaving made the
following statement:
"The reports so far, my friends,
have been very unfavorable. but we
are not yet defeated. Sit steady in
the boat and hope for the best NY
defeat, If / am defeated, is only
temporary and if tn epeople OF Mis-
sissippi have made a mistake we will

as they undoubtedly correct their
mistake. AS / said before, IL de-

porary. I want to thank my friends
for their loyal support
w. Calvin Wells, secretary OF the
Harrison campaign. gave out the
following statement:
"Unquestionably Mr.. Harrison has
been nominated in the first primary.
Mississippi is vindicated in the eyes
OF the world and her loyalty can no
longer be questioned"
