GOOD NEWS FROM

Bismarck, n. D. h
Gentlemen: 4,
Referring to the statement ] made
July II about the crop in this vicinity,
wish to say it was a fact at that time
we would have had little or no crop,
but that same night we got a soaker
being LOS inches at Garrison and
about tie same on the reservation.
This rain made the most wonderful
change it is not possible to believe it,
especially on the flax. There is some
flax. here seeded in June. got 100
acres of it myself that is just coming
up. After, this rain that of course will
not make flax. Eut in whole there
is not per cent of the flax crop here
but what was seeded early enough SO
it had started but in this few days 1t
changed from q few scattering sick
spears, to solid blue blanket. A drive
through flax field now is beautiful
sight. The wheat that never intend
ed to cut a week ago now will 60. 5
bushels. and the wheat intend ed to
cut with the header now looks like a
yield Of at least Is bushels and will
use binders./ However, Sanish, Van
hook, Parshal and Plaza is beyond re.
demption, but they will also have
some crop. l am no crop reporter
nut am writing this. to offset the state
ment l made week ago. However,
at that time ] would have sold out
my crop for the expenses of putting it
in and now ! believe It is the best pay
ing crop / have had since II started
farming on the reservation. :.
Yours truly.

all direct taxes be .apportioned among
the several states according to, popu-
lation. My bill. 1 think does this. 1t
isfnot tax on the land nor even on
the value Of the land, but on the priv
'ilege of holding the land. This privi.
.lege of holding the land enjoyed by
certain individuals to the exclusion of
all others is due entirely to- cOnven>
| tional arrangements. & Without the
convention it does not exist:
THE right to hold land Is to be
treated as a. privilege and, while the
land may not be taxed, the: privilege
the franchise to hold and use-is
fairly the subject ofytaxation. 1t diff
fers in no wise from the franchise OF
a corporation whose property, is taxed
separately from the right to hold and
control its property

! A PATRIOT. AND HIS FRIENDS


Boss Townley of the Nonpartisan league seems
to, have had another stroke Of ill-luck The New
York Evening Mail, which for nearly year has
been perspirng in his "cauee" is under the search
light of the federal department of justice. The de-
partment charges that it's principal owner, DR..
Edward A. Rumely, has received upwards of q
million dollars Of German money. Now we sup
pose the hrelings Of the kept press" and all
the other wicked and corrupt enemies Of Townley-
ism will be yapping at his intensely patriotic heels
again. The spectacle is enough to make angels
weep. II. H @:is e: /. ssG. s@,s
Townley, Of course, is patriotic man. The
nation has George Creel's word for that. Creel
says he heard about those rotten rich speeches
Townley was making, and, with the assistance Of
Mr. Hoover and President Wilson, converted him
to- the cause of the United States. Take Creels
word for it-Townley has been loyal for eight
months at least.
Yet how sorey have Townley's friends tried
him during that period! Senator LaFollette, for
example. Imagine his anguish Of soul while
Fighting Bob was talking about the Lusitania
at the St. Paul Auditorium last September. True,
he bore it with apparent bravery, yet it must
have wrung his heart. And then Lindbergh. He
had no more than picked Lin!bergh, for Cover
nor before the facts with reference TO Lindberghs
war book were disclosed. More agony. Secretary
Joseph Gilberts conviction; Randall's conyiction;
Martins conviction; .Brinton's arrest and indict-
ment; the huge Lindbergh majority at New Uln1.
and now the revelations concerning the New York
Mail! Ossa heaped upon Pelion; grief piled upon
the brow of grief. d. >s ss@ = I. y, 81
L It is no business for ribald jest Put yourself
in his place. Fancy great soul, filled to burst
ing with pure patriotism eternally condemned to
association with saive,srs, pacstss and pro- Ger
mans! Even the hard hearts Of the 'prcAteers
must bleed at the sight = Paul Pioneer Press.
