ship taxes and school taxes vary the
most | could go on and give ex-
amples from other townships which
would show the same general re-
suit; that is that of every dollar
you pay in Burke county only nine
to eleven cents goes to the state
and that anyone who had hail in
surance on his crops saved enough
on the premium he would have had
to pay. old line insurance companies
to pay all his taxes. SOL will not
take any more space giving -ex-
.amples of this kind. but will fol-
low up one of those dollars that
goes to the state treasurer. You
will remember that Mr. Moody will
be required to pay 1921 to the state
as state taxes on that quarter Sec
ton. Suppose we take one of
those dollars and divide it up about
as the state will do.

ing fund 80. ..... 1.342 cents
State bond interest
fund 5.1O4 cents
State industries ). >. 4.54 cents
Total tax on account
Of state industries 1856 cents
And as Mr.. Moody has to pay
1921 in state taxes on this quarter
his tax on this quarter caused by
the state industries will be less than
sixty cents. The rest of the dollar
in state taxes is used up in about
the following way:
Legislature, about .. IN cents
State departments, gOv-
ernor, Comm of Ag-
riculture, Atty. Cen
eral, auditor, Sec of
State, etc., about :. 16 cents

! Some of the appropriations made
for the purpose of starting the state
industries have been returned, the

is self supporting and has returned
all of it's original appropriation to
the general fund. The Bank OF
North Dakota is on a paying basis
showing a profit of nearly sixty
thousand dollars at the last report,
and was about to return to the
general fund of the state the
amount of it's appropriation. The
state hail department will, when
the taxes are collected, pay all
losses, and then reimburse the state
treasury for all appropriations made
to- get it started: and will do this
out Of the rs cent per acre assess
ment: and have money enough left
to pay the departments expenses
for next year "
), When we North Dakota farmers
take into consideration the ad-
vantages that the new industries
will give us when we get them pro-
perly into operation, we are not so
easily scared by a bunch of I. V.
AS hollering about high taxes, and
when they attempt to blame the
league for all the raise in taxes
we'll, show them what state taxes
are. Take a squint at county
taxes, and say: "Maybe the league
is to blame-for not going into
county politics before"

Rev. L. L. Anderson. the local pas
tor of the A. NJ. E. church of this
place and his people, have succeeded
in their efforts in buying a church lot
on Willow street south of the rail-
road station. between Bluff and Tus-
tin streets. The colored people have
been struggling. for several years,
trying to get place of their own in
Pendleton where they can have Di-
vine services and render other instruc-
tions to their own people that will be
helpful in making them better citi-
zens and live upright lives. The col
ored people of this place are now
looking forward to the time when they
will have a church of their own. Rev.
Anderson was transferred from the
Kansas conference to the Puget Sound
conference and stationed at Pendle-
ton by Bishop H. M. Parks Rev.
Anderson's one aim is centered on
bettering the conditions of his peo-
pie morally and spiritually.
