A Disgrace to the Nation.

In spite of previous bitter expert
ence, the nation cannot fail to be as
founded and shocked over the action
of the war department in releasing
Joseph Brandon, the leader Of the con-
scientious DIRECTORS at Camp Funston.
Brandon was one of the foremost of
the defiant and disloyal band who, if
they had their way, would have turned
over their country to the foe. The adj
ministration went the limit in cater
ing to the eccentricities of these men.
1t did not ask them to fight. All it
required was that they perform non
combatant duty.
The religious conscientious objec-
tors accepted this policy in good faith.
The reds refused and did everything
possible to make themselves obnoxious
and to destroy discipline. Brandon's
offense was so conspicuous that he
was sentenced to death by court-mar-
tial, then his sentence was reduced by
the commanding general to twenty-five
years Imprisonment, and by the presi-
dent to five years. His conduct during
his brief Imprisonment was intended
to show his contempt for the govern
ment. He even disregarded the COM
mon decencies of life.
After he had been sentenced to
death and his sentence committed he
wrote: "From what little news we
get, we almost go crazy for joy when
we read or hear that the red flag is
rapidly waving over more and more
territory in Europe"
And this is the man who is singled
out for release after few months of
confinement! The only thing lacking
is the failure Of the government to pro-
vide him with transportation to Bos-
ton to take part in addressing the mobs
there.
Do the president and his secretary
of war really consider an attempt to
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1919-10-23

strike down the government while it
is fighting for it's life so triding an
offense? Do they wish to impress on
the country that disloyalty is of no
consequence? Or why do they follow
the policy defined by Secretary Baker
as doing all that public opinion will
stand in the interest Of conscientious
DIRECTORS ?"
We should be unfaithful to those
who have died in France, says the
president, if we do not adopt his league
Of nations. So it is unfaithful to
those who have died to stand fast for
Americanism, but it is not unfaithful
to give countenance to the men who
tried to destroy what we were fighting
for.

The Fellow That l Like.

I never like a fellow lolling around
the neighborhood, who finds out all
there is that's bad and nothing that
is good--a sort of hemale gossip who
is always on the CAB, who is grab
bing every morsel Of vile SANDER he
can grab Somehow he does not seem
to be the proper kind Of man; it
seems to me that he is built upon
the gossip plan, with nothing else on
earth to do but gossip, lie and boot,
and in everybody's business you can
always find his snoot. I like the
good old-timers that I meet upon the
way, who always wear a pleasant
smile, have something good to say;
who never turn a fellow down when
fortune has gone wrong kind of
men who always make life listen like
a song. I like the good old timer who
will never change his coat, but the
bolsheviki gossip, he has surely got
my goat; he's roaring, ring-tailed
tooter and the terror of the pike,
and I'm glad to state the blowhard
amt the fellow that l like. / like
most all my fellow men, and fellow
women, too, cause we have some
neighbors in the world we're passing
through, and I find along my journey
that men are most inclined to stoop
and lift the weary from the mires
which they find. Man is not so awful,
come to size him up; but the grin
ming hemale gossip is dirty hui
man pup; he's the everlasting limit
in the species Of the male; and he
ought to be an inmate Of the bloom
ing county Jail, pray the Lord to
keep him from the trails have to
hike, and to give me good old-timcrs
the fellows that I like.

Line Up Hairs!

"We are all militarist now" said
Representative Kirby Of Arkansas.
II was being shaved in a barber
shop the other day when a grizzled
chap in a captains uniform came in.
He saluted smartly and seated him-
self in chair next to my own.
Haircut he said in gruf tones.
" How would you like it cut, sir !?
the barber asked.
'The captain, who was baldish, an
swered, gruffer than ever:
!" Line up the hairs and number off
to the right. Odd numbers each want
a half-inch. Dress smartly with bay
rum and brilliantine. Then dismiss. : 2

Minnesota and North Dakota Taxes.

Minnesota and North Dakota Taxes.
Minnesota's rate Of tax levy is the
highest in the states history, reaching
a total of SOB mills for all purposes,
compared with 3.45 mills last year.
The increase includes Its mills to-
ward retiring the soldiers bonus Ger
tifcates Of Indebtedness, but the levy
for general state purposes is raised
from one mill to 3.5 mills.
While Minnesota was raising her
rate Of levy 1873 per cent North Dako-
to actually decreased her rate from
4.3 mills to 2.98 mills, fact which
apologists for the A. c. Townley sys-
tenn of government are diligently
calling to public attention But there
is another feature they are not saying
much about. They have raised the
assessed valuation in North Dakota
from $401 ,659,615 to 1,51O,31O,719.
Thus North Dakota, with less than
third of the population of Minnesota,
has an assessed valuation nearly equal
to that Of this state. And North Da-
kota has no iron mines.
So while the rate of levy in North
Dakota has been reduced, the actual
taxes for state purposes have been in
creased at one jump from $1,727, 1876
to $4,511 200, or 161 per cent. The
increase in North Dakota shows
bigger percentage than Minnesota, for
the assessment in this state stands
practically still, while the rate goes
up 1873 per cent.
The comparison does not end here
The increased tax in North Dakota is
needed mainly to meet the extravaganza
outlay of the Townley regime for high
salaried employees and for state ven
lures into socialism. Only half mill
is levied there for soldier bonus pur-
poses, less than a third of the rate
levied in Minnesota. That half mill,
even on North Dakota's inflated as
sessment, will yield less than eight
hundred thousand dollars. Thus the
returned service men of that state
will receive next year only about TWEEN
ty-seven dollars piece. Minnesota is
preparing to raise twenty million dol
lars for immediate distribution to her
returned soldiers by selling certificates
Of indebtedness, and will raise three
million dollars Of it by taxation next
year. Minnesota service men will get
an average of two hundred dollars
each at once.
Minnesota will distribute $7,349,670
Of the money raised by direct tax dur
ing the current biennium to the COM
mon schools of the state, an increase
of $2,3O0,OO0 over the amount handed
out in the past two years. Here is an
increase in state taxation that goes
right back to the local communities.
Most Of the increased state tax,
however, is to be used for the cree
! tion of buildings for state institutions,
sorely needed for years but postponed
because Of war conditions. They will
represent permanent additions to the
assets of the state.
The increased levy in Minnesota is
unwelcome to the taxpayers, of course,
but they can take some comfort in
comparison with their neighbor on the
west. Minnesotans arc getting value
received for their money, and are
not piling up untold burdens for the
future by experiments i'll state social

THE FOURTH LEGISLATURE

More favorable comment on tn,
work of the legislature which ad
journed last Saturday night is hcare
than on any previous legislature il
New Mexico.
Nothing like such a pretentious
program was ever before outlined
in a governors message in this state
AS that which Governor Larrazolo
presented on the second day OF the
session, and yet every one of those
recommendations, with the single
una suffrage amendment, ha,
been enacted into law.
Every plank in the Republican plat
form of last fall relative to state
legislation, again with the single ex-
~ception of suffrage admission, has
been carried into effect.
The lis of meritoriou. measures
is too long to recapitulate in a single
article, but q number of them have
been well covered in this issue by
Nj. E. NJ. Albright and more will
follow as the new departments and
boards are organized.
The increase in general appropria-
lions is surprisingly small consider.
ing The great a@nlount Of construction
and Improvement provided fo~, and
tbe tax rate would be lower except
for the amounts provided for roads
and schools.
The appointment, of the COVER.
nor, too, have been very generally
satisfactory, notably those of Clliett.
Sena, Gable, Saint, Van Stone, Young
and many of lesser importance.
New Mexico enters the period Of
reconstruction organized as she never
was before to take advantage OF her
opportunities and develop her re
sources on an extensive scale.
