The recent agitation for a cleaner,
FL Paso and local prohibition has brot
to notice the fact that Geo. F. Hawks
is one Of the big committee handling
the fight in Ell Paso county. He has so
closely attended to the business of
running the FL Paso & Southwestern
System that it was not known that he
was a prohibitionist. Big railroad
men have done more for prohibition in
this country than any other class, and
it should surprise no one to find the
general manager of the most progress
sive railroad system in the country at
the head of a movement for closed sa-
looms. When the railroads first began
to enforce the famous rule &c" the Of

The evidence produced in the sugar
inquiry has about convinced the public
that while the food administrator was
doing the very best he could, he was
in a bad crowd and some one did put
it over on him. Also. it is now fairly
clear, the spectators put one over on
the food administrator when it was
agreed to fix the price of wheat and
let the corn market stay open for ma
nipulation. And, as usual, the corr
growers are not getting the advantage
of the manipulated markets, as the
prices never go skyward until the
spectators have made their pur-
chases.

Tax the profteers? We should say so! For,
instance, Just to quote a few out of many:
The n. Y. Lorillard Tobacco concern reports
for 1917 an excess far greater than that Of the
previous year.
The report Of the American Zinc, Lead and
Smelling Company shows a clear profit of more
than 1Ha million for 1917, as against / million
dollars in 1916 and $348, 657 in 1915.
Standard Oil, despite the taxes levied by the
Government, reports gross earnings consider
ably higher than in 1916.
American Cotton Oil profits promise the lare,
est on record, according to to their recent re-
port.
The annua report of the Westinghouse Com
pany shows the largest gross earnings in the
history of the concern.

A Paying Proposition.

Editor Courant: Among the.
thousands assembled Yesterday
to hear Townley and LANCER
speak were perhaps a few dis
gruntled ones, though if they
were present they were gener-
ally quiet and orderly. Patriot
ism was the key note Of every
speaker, the weather was fine,
the eats were of the best and
there was hardly an exception
everyone seeming to enjoy them
selves. IL there was a doubt in
any mans mind when he arriv-
ed, as to whether his connection
with the League was worth
while, or whether his investment
in it was a paying proposition,
that doubt must have been GER
tainly removed if he listened to
what LANCER had to say. The
Grain Grading law as explained
by Mr.. LANCER and the efforts
of the present state officers from
Governor down, in Strengthening
out this question has helped ev-
cry grain grower in the state,
if measured by cash alone, many
times over what the League has,
or may in the future, cost him.
We are sorry that more of the
opposition were not present to
be convinced of the error Of their
ways. Several Of them present
did admit his speech to have
been a fine one, even though
they were obliged to swallow
while admitting it.
Mr.. Steen proposes (if elect
ed) to undo this work in regard
to marketing of grain on the
ground that it's cost was too
much (something like twenty
thousand dollars) according to
Mr.. LANCER. Though if I am in
touch with the feeling Of the
people who raise the grain there
is not any immediate danger of
Mr.. Steen making any radical
changes in that matter.
Senator Hamilton's speech was
short, to the point, and enjoyed
by all.
Truly yours,
Fred E.. Sims.

Boost Your Home Farmers.

Boost and the farmer boosts
with you; knock and you knock
alone, for every knock is a
boost, or at least that is how it
is working out down here at
Berthold. We have heard the
bankers cry Of boost your home
town long enough. Why not
boost your actual resident farm
er. He pays the freight. AS the
farmer grows so will your town

moss backs who are unable to

But you are never too old to

er crops look good considering
the late cold spring. As to our
crop Of politicians there seems to
be a few wild oats now and then
but wen pull the whiskers off
them before the primary har-

In days gone by, if you could

"IT WAS A GLORIOUS VICTORY"

For the second time "the embattled farm
ers' of North Dakota have submitted their
cause to the arbitrament of the ballot, and for
the second time, by a decisive majority, they,
aided by the believers in equal rights with no
special privileges, have won out over the re-
dictionary faction under the leadership OF a
coterie of self-seeking politicians, backed by,
in the main, an INSCRIPTIONS and utterly venal
press, which has been guilty of resorting to
every form of vituperation and falsehood with
in the purview of their highly fertile magma
ton. Their insolent and lying assumption OF
being the exclusive possessors of all the loyalty
in the state has been Indignantly and effectu-
ally repudiated at the polls by an indignant and
insulted electorate.
Judging by the primary returns there seems
to be only one course left for these peanut poll
ticians and their misguided following to pursue
and that is to align themselves with the Demo-
Gratis and support the nominees of that party at
the election, as they planned to do when they
assumed the name of the Independent Voters
association"
The Courant goes to press too early to give
the total vote, but there is no question as to the
success of the Nonpartisan ticket, county and
state.

" INSULT ADDED TO INJURY.

The Grand Forks Herald, all through the
campaign, has by turns advised, implored, re-
buked and threatened the adherents of the Nom
partisan league for having dared to think for
head from which the lesser gang organs of the
state have drawn their inspiration for the my
Rad of utterly false and vilely slanderous at
tacks which they have persisted in making on
the leaders of the farmers movement for self
betterment. On the eve of the primaries this
Journalistic whited-sepulchre true to it's policy
of falsehood and Misrepresentation, contained
a lengthy lead editorial, of which the following
are extracts, which clearly indicates that all
who fail to acquiesce in it's insane, if not idiotic
rule-or-ruin policy are, inferentially at least,
knaves or fools-mostly the latter:
: Today's primary election in North Da-
, kota will fix the patriotic status of North
. Dakota in the minds of many thousands of
outside people for some time to come. If
the candidates picked by the Townley ma
chine are nominated by majorities ap-
preaching those which they received two
years ago, that fact will be interpreted as
evidence that the people of North Dakota
are lacking in patriotism. If those candi-
J. dates are defeated, or if they are even NOM
mated by greatly reduced majorities, the
outside Interpretation will be that the peo-
pie of the state are loyal to the govern
ment, despite the appearances of the past
two years.
1t is unfortunate that the result of the
election will be interpreted in this manner,
but it is inevitable. $3.50
The voting today will show, not whether
or not our people are loyal, but whether or
not they have reached a sufficiently clear
understanding of the actual facts to pass
correctly on the loyalty of Mr.. Townley and
those who are aiding and abetting him in
the management of his campaigns.
There you have it, farmers of North Da-
kota! BY your own perverse acts you have, &C.
cording to the preachments of this journalistic
high priest of the very political and business in
terests' which for many years constituted
themselves your political and economic task.
