Last weeks issue of the Free Press
finally admits that Stewart has "com-
pleted contract for the sale of the
Free Press" The gentleman doesn't
see fit to take the public into his con-
fidence to the extent of falling them
with whom he made that contract.
In view of the fact that they have
just started selling stock, that con-
tract couldn't have been made with
Stewards imaginary 400 to 500 farm
ars."
And, let's see, Stewart as owner of
the Free Press, is to sell the paper to
the corporation of which he is one of
the three incorporators, along with
Farmer Lynn and Farmer Harding.
y There's more than one way to Skin

And. by the way, what a fine club

When that labor-union gentleman,
Milholland, was picked up by the N.
p. league and made railroad COM
missioner, it placed him in position
where he was able to devote unlimited
time to the job of lining up organized
labor with the Townley gang. And
in justice to Mr.. NJ, he put it over
very well at the last election. But
they want to do the thing up little
batter yet. And, convention is to be
held soon in Fargo to perfect state
labor party, as an adjunct to the N.
p. League.
1t seemed for a while that there
would be no great trouble in selling
the labor vote to Townley, but the
Grand Forks local of the Topographic
cal Union has done very nasty
thing. They have refused to stay
put. and have passed resolution
withdrawing from the North Dakota
Federation of Labor, and refuse to be
represented at the Fargo convention.
Why, there are even things that
Frank Milholland can't do, when i.
comes to deliver votes, it seems.

q . y
Money is the root of all evil" So
they used to tell us. Well, right now.
money seems to be the cause of some
pretty hot times in the state capitol
at Bismarck.
Gov. Frazier, Commissioner Hagen,
the compensation board, and certain
league newspaper reporters swooped
down upon the state auditor the other
evening, and the fur flew thick and
fast.
What was the cause? Money.
1t seems the last state legislature
tossed up fifty-thousand-d dollar APP
preparation for their newly-created
compensation board, "out Of any
funds in the state treasury not other
wise appropriated, or as much thereof
as may be necessary to carry out the
provisions of this act"
Well, the board got busy, and they
have already collected more than a
quarter million, but they don't want
to touch that while they still have a
nice $4,000 appropriation.
To make long story short, Kositz-
ky refused to allow them to draw on
the $4,000, but told them to draw on
the funds they had taken in. And
that's why the delegation waited upon
the state auditor in his Office. Bad
names few thick and fast, and the
compensation board demanded that
their bills be paid out of the fifty
thousand, etc., etc.
The state auditor informed them
that the law said 1850. 90, out Of any
funds not otherwise appropriated" If
there is any such animal, opined Mr..
K. it was up to the gentlemen to show
him, and he'd pay the bills gladly.
But there's the rub.
It's cinch for the learned gentie-
men Of the legislature to appropriate
to their hearts content. But It's an
other thing 10 dig mp the coin Of tie
realm viii wh ID 70 coysr Inc appro-
priations.
And Il looks like the compensation
board win have to dig IN on The quar-
ter Of Q million.

The recent appointment of j. II.
Worst as immigration commissioner
is rather significant to the thinking
people Of this state.
The Nonpartisan league was born,
grew and fattened upon the cry that
the "old gang" the Mckenzie gang,
was rotten to the core and that they
had been robbing the people.
/ And the fact that on every hand
the minions of that said old gang
have been welcomed with open arms
by the Townley machine has not
seemed in the least to prove to the
people Of this state the buncomb that
TOwnley has handed out.
]. H. Worst was lieutenant COVER
nor Of this state in 3 day when his
election could not have been possible
without McKenzie's o. X. He was
given the presidency of the agricul-
tural college by the Mckenzie gang
and held it for quarter Of century,
until McKenzie's fall from power.
We are in a position to know first
hand of Mr.. Worst's political history.
He was picked up by the Mckenzie
ties while q sheep rancher in Emmons
county, near old Williamsport.
We refer to this as an excellent IL
lustration of the way the Townley
bunch has Of breaking up the cold
gang They do it by stealing the
leaders of the "old Gang" and giving
them something better than the cold
gang" ever did.
Worst isn't the only one Of the old
gang leaders now in high favor. Ed.
Patterson, notorious for more than q
quarter of century in Burleigh coun-
ty politics, is another of their wheel
horses. Even Brinton, Les. Simpson,
and others unnumbered are to be
found in the inner circles Of Townley's
councils.
The old game of "humbug' still
f1ourishes and blooms on the prairies
of our native state.

In Ye Olden Tymes it was not un-
common to hear the multitude cry
The King is Dead; Long Live the
King And so it is with that former
Emmons county citizen, j. H. Worst.
For many years he "hailed the king.
Mckenzie" Now he "hails the king,
Townley." Any old thing, just SO he
is q king. We supported the political
fortunes Of j. H. Worst for years,
but we aren't as nimble politically as
he. And SO we must now reach the
parting of the ways.

. ID II
F. w. Cathro, of the Bank of North
Dakota. has been provided with the
muniticent salary of $4,000 per year.
Pretty fine. Seems like. the gentle
man could well afford to donate S5,-
900 towards next years league cam

ary left.
Taxpayers Of North Dakota will do
well to cast b weather eye on salary
and expense accounts handed out. OF
course. the donations made by the
various members of the vast army Of
pap-suckers will never be made pub
lie. But shrswd taxpayer ought to
be able to read between the lines.

The North Dakota Press Associa-
lion meeting 1t Mandan last week was

\ The North Dakota Press Associa-
tion meeting at Nandan last week was
= hummer.
Since its inception, this association
has welcomed to its fold newspaper
men Of all classes and creeds. Il was
not political party, despite the fact
that Townleyitas have tried to make
|it appear to the farmers that when
they organized farmers political
party, they were doing just what the
newspaper men have always done.
But, when the league machine got
to working smoothly, they tried to
grab the N. ID. Press Assn. ut the
Grand Forks meeting last year. They
were unsuccessful, and thereupon the
Townley editors Of ths subsidized
string Of league newspapers bolted,'
and formed their own association.
As q result, the meeting ct Mandan
consisted Of the independent nswspn-
per men Of the state, and there was
some attendance, at that.
The Townley newspapers sent d re-
porter to the convention to see what
he could see, and the newspaper men
fooled him by inviting him to hear all
there was to hear and see. And his
presence didn't throw any cold water,
at all, on the deliberations Of that
body.
One important step taken by the
association is Of interest to the ;peo-
pie Of this state. They arranged to
have their secretary act as their rep
resentative at the state capitol, and
all the independent newspapers will
soon be provided with q news service
that will be uncolored and devoid Of
political comment. It will be cold,
hard facts, and will simply show
where the money is going. and in
what quantities. And it will expose
many Of the moves up there that
might never otherwise get before the
people.
1t is one thing to know what is GO
ing on in official circles, and another
to get that information bafore all the
people of the state. This can no
doubt now be accomplished.

state treasurer to show plenty 81
funds. But now . large amount Of
outstanding warrants have been paid,
and, according to law, the state audi
tor has forced the placing Of funds in
their proper departments, in an
amount Of only about 100000.
And there is practically nothing
left in ths. general fund to pay cur
rent expenses.
The state tfeasurer's figures avail
nothing now in paying the bills. The
money isn't there. And the only figh,
that is left is whether or not Kositzky
should have ordered funds placed in
their proper departments, or all kept
in lump sum to pay bills, even ut
the expense Of special funds.
The state treasurer has sent let
ter to the state auditor protesting
against the placing of special funds
in their proper accounts, because OF
the depleted condition OF the general
fund and the resultant danger to the
state credit. The state treasurer
holds that in the last event, the Bank
OF North Dakota can advance the ne.
cessary cash to tide us over.
Hence. while the Free Press assures
its readers that there is plenty Of
money in the general fund, the state
officials and the Townley newspapers
are hammering each other as to why
the general fund is exhausted. And
so the merry game Of Fox and Geese
goes on.
