RAILROADS. WITNESSES
REFuTE THEIR CLAIMS

The railroad corporations are trying
to dodge the. payment of their 1917
and 1918 taxes amounting to about
$1,9OO,O0O, and are now in litigation,
Withholding this money from the pub
lie treasury, on the ground that they
have been assessed more heavily than
have the farm lands of the state. Hear
ings are being held over the state and
testimony is being taken on behalf Of
the railroads and the state. At Bis
mark this month such hearing was
held and some peculiar facts were
brought out, among them that the
witnesses for the railroads actually
set the value Of the land ut LESS
than 1t had been assessed by the state.
Thus 1t was shown that while the
witness set the value of land in Dunn
county at $18.50 to $500 an acre, the
state was assessing 1t at 1854. One
witness said that land in Billings
county was worth $6.75 an acre, but
Its assessed value. for taxation, is on
the books at 1918 an acre. Witnesses
testified that Bowman county land
was worth $14 an acre, but the assess
ment books show 1t at SIS. These
were the witnesses for the railroads
and but few witnesses for the state
had been called. At the close of the
hearings ut Bismarck, the final herr
ing will be held at Fargo, for some Of
the eastern counties in which testi-
inony had not been received. The
railroad companies are merely trying
to hold down the state taxes to the
figure which the old gang set them at,
and which were lower than any Of the
states adjoining North Dakota-a
privilege that they are anxious to re-
tain.

STORING GRAIN ON FARM
BEST PLAN YET EVOLVED

Probably nothing in the whole pro-
gram OF the Nonpartisan league has
aroused the enthusiasm among the
farmers as has the plan for storing
grain on the farm and issuing ware
house receipts to the farmers. The
plan was recently brought up by ]. n.
McGovern, manager Of the North Da.
kota Mill and Elevator association.
who will direct the new state-owned
enterprises.
Representative Frank G. Prater, Of
Arena, sees in this one arrangement
the greatest advance in farm effici-
ency.
by storing grain on the farm in.
stead Of hauling 1t to market as soon
as it Is threshed, wheat gambling will
be knocked out and the congestion Of
the railway systems will be ended"
said Mr.. Prater. "a farmer who
threshes his grain right into bin and
leaves 1t there for state inspector to
examine and seal up. can get money to
pay his debts by presenting his state
warehouse receipt Mt any bank. Thus
he will be able to pass along the bene-
ut of his ready money to the merch-
ants and business people Of the towns.
Anything that makes money easier for
the farmer Is of benefit to all business
in North Dakota.
thousands Of farmers have always
had to rush their wheat into market
to get money for their debtors. North
Dakota farmers generally have sold
their wheat when the markets are
glutted and the price is down. Under
the storage on the farm plan, the
farmers can wait until the most favor
able opportunity to sell. And there
will be no storage charges us there
would be in a big elevator.
"When we can store our wheat and
still get money on 1t, there will be
more fall blowing done. Now we have
to stop fall blowing to haul grain to
the railroad. Fall blowing means
better crops and fewer weeds. When
you look at the scheme for warehouse
receipts on grain stored on the farm,
1T Is easy to see that 1t Is one of the
biggest things yet announced. The
government wheat corporation is
planning to force the farmers to hold
their wheat back from market Mt their
own expense. But in North Dakota,
under the system of warehouse re-
ceipts, the farmers will have the adj
vantage of farmers anywhere else in
the wheat belt"

back to the object Of my trip, those
doubloons and pieces of eight that lay
In glitteting heaps somewhere out in
those island wildernesses.
Then Tom came up with my break
fast. The old fellow stood by to serve
me as ate, with pathetic touch Of
the old slavery days In his deferential,
:half-fatherly manner, dropping a
quaint remark every now and again !;
as, when drawing my attention to the
sun bursting through the clouds, he
said, 'eThe poor mans blanket is COM

seemed whole lot Of pathos to me.

CAN'T TELL LABOR LAWS
IN FOUR SHORT MINUTES

"What North Dakota has done in
the way Of improving standards Of
labor cannot be told in four minutes"
said John N. Hagan, state commits
sioner of agriculture and labor, when
he returned this month from a confer
ence with the labor commissioners Of
thirty states at Madison, Wis. Each
states representative was allotted
four minutes to tell of the labor legis-
lation passed by. its last legislature.
Mr.. Hagan required IS minutes to tell
North Dakota's part. They gave 1t to
him gladly, for the officials were in
!terested in the way we had gone about
establishing the workmen's compensa-
tion insurance, and In the labor laws
protecting women and children, the
laws protecting railroad men and
printers, the anti-injunction law and
the list of nine or ten measures that
the farmers gave to labor in North
Dakota. Naturally those officials sat
up and listened. They were there to
consider especially the matter Of Sc
curing cooperation between labor and
employees for the installation Of safety
devices. the limitation of child labor
and the establishment of the s-hour
day for women In industry. We do
not have to discuss tive have
done 1t. 81
