"THls is THE LIFE"

In finding work for the returning SOL
diers consideration must be given to the
character of their employment before
they entered the army. Secretary Lane
is entitled to credit for evolving his
scheme OF providing farm houses for the
men on the unsettled land of the West
and South, but although the object he
has in mind is most worthy one it can
scarcely be the success he predicts if it
Is adopted. Men who have spent their
lives in cities are not going to forsake
their old habits and acquaintaEces to
move to the country. Nothing has oc-
CURED to them in their army life tend
ing to change their normal method of
living; on the contrary, the longer they
have remained abroad the greater has
been their longing for home. Whatever
may have been soldiers craving for
adventure before the war it has been
thoroughly satisfied by his life at the
front, and he thinks only of coming
back to the familiar scenes of his earl.
ier life.
The truth of that statement Is proven
by recent experiences of the ranchers of
Oregon and the Northwest. The branch
of the Federal Employment Service at
The Dalles has been unable to supply
the demand for labor on the local ran
ches. It IS stated that while the Office
was opened primarily to secure work for
returning soldiers and sailors practically
none of them have been willing to &C
cept ranch jobs.

WANTED A FINANcIER.

When the Republican party returns
to power with the first session of the
Sixty-sixth Congress it will be con-
fronted by the most serious problems of
financial reconstruction IN the history
OF governments. During the last 18
months the American government has
expended about twice as much money
as any other for the same period. The
greater portion of this money, however.
was collected on loans; despite enor-
nous revenue bills, the government is
still spending nearly three timesras much
every month as 1t gets in taxes.
In the United States treasury at the
present time is $3.50. 100000 in gold;
more gold than was ever there before;
twice as much gold as was ever assemb-
led in The treasury of any other country
known to history. But for every dollar
of gold the government owes to private
creditors about $40. And in the face of
this enormous and constantly -increas-
ing Indebtedness the Democratic major
ity in the last Congress celebrated its
demise by passing rivers and harbors
bill which is said to contain more swag
than any Of its long list of infamous pre-
decessors. The deserving Democrats
realized that power was slipping away
and they assembled for one last big raid
on the treasury before Republican
watchdogs could be placed on guard.
Never in its history has the Republi-,
can party failed to honor trust. repos.
ed in it; never has it finehed before its
plain duty by reason of obstacles in the
way. But it is labor Of Hercules to
reduce the cost of government to an
equilibrium between receipts and ex-
penditures. Great emergencies are
said to create great men but to this rule
the financial follies Of the Sixty-fifth
Congress present glaring exception.
Chairman Kitchin of the Ways and
Means Committee of the House of Rep.
resentatives was honest and sincere:
but he lacked alike financial genius or
financial sense. His attempts to co.or-
dinate income and expense At times ap.
preached the grotesque. He was a few
degrees less practical than Mark Twain's
famous Mulberry Sellers" AS a
Watchdog Of the treasury he proved .
bowling farce. When Mr.. McAdoo re-
signed as Treasurer to 60 with the NOV
les he made what was tantamount to an
open confession Of the deplorable con.
dition Of national finances.

scribed to an oath to support the. con-
,stitution of the United States and the
State Of North Dakota and to faithfully
discharge the duties OF his Office. Mark
you, this oath of Office makes these
state officials atnenable to the constitu.
tion and laws of the federal and state
government. It charges them with a
solemn duty to the sovereign people Of
this common wealth, to faithfully and
impartially discharge their duties as
public officials iearlessly and without
favor.
These men have rebelled against the
iron will of A.C. Townley. They have
dared to question his right to think for
them. They have openly rebelled
against the most tyrannical rule ever
set up in . government of free people,
the rule of an absolute dictator.
They have sworn no allegiance to Mr.
To wiley. They have simply come to
the turn in the road of official duty, the
place where they must choose between
their conscience and their solemn oath
before God to obey the laws, or to bow
in abiect submission before Mr.. Town
ley and admit that black is white.
That they have had the manhood to
rebel against wrong and injustice and
point out the dangers and pitfalls in
some of the laws passed by the sixteen
tn legislative assembly, does not make
them traitors" 1T marks them as pat
riots. Their acts do not in any sense Of
the word show them to be "cowards," !"
but onthe contrary to be brave men.
They have dared to face political obliv-
ion rather than keep silence and see un.
American and undemocratic laws made
effective in this state.
All honor to these men who have
dared to face the dictator and tell him
fatty that many of his pet laws are not
in the interest of the people of the
state. They are not traitors to North
Dakota in any sense of the word.

One day last week five pure food in.
spectors swooped down upon our mer-
chant to see that they we're complying
with the pure food law. There were
four young men and one woman in the
lot we understand. Why it should take
that many people to 60 through the
form of inspection is hard to tell. It
may be that they were afraid that the
merchants might be able to hide away
something if they did not land on the
three general stores at one time. But
it ls still more likely that the caravan OF
Townley appointee had to 60 some
place to keep moving. The taxpayers
have to pay their salaries add expenses.

A novel way Of getting an extra dollar
into the automobile llcense fund has
developed lately and that no one un-
derstood excepting the trainers Of the
bill. No dealer is alloWed to sell car
without license, or that the license
must have been applied for, which
means that the money has been sent
into the license commission at Bismarck.
Then. when the car is being sald the
license will have TO be changed to the
name Of the purchaser, which cost one
dollar Thus, every new car, will have
to have a transferred license. Varily
the eTownley bunch have great ways Of
extracting the money from the public.
