FEDERAL AND A AID
CONTINUED from page ~

Practical Points Concerning The Ap-
plication of Federal And State Aid
The combined Federal, State and
County fund would be used to build
the State Highways which are the
principal County roads.
It is probable that arrangements
coud be made if desired, to enable the
County to do a part of the work with
County organigzation and County
equipment.
In any event it is certain that this
construction would bring a big demand
for local labor and teams, especially
at times when the farmers are not
busy with their crops, as, well as q
big increase Of business for the mer-
chants of the towns in the county.
The taxes on railroad, telegraps and
telephone companies would under this
plan pay heavily toward the improve
ment Of the roads but it is believed
that they will not object since the i'm
provement aimed at is such an import
ant public benefit and will, in the long
run, by aiding progress and prosper
ity bring them better business.
Does Bottineau County Want FEEDER
al And State Aid
does the county wish to apply for
less than it's share, $90,077.80 Of Fed
eral Aid and if so in what amount?
Twill the county provide for it's
share, $90,077.80 Of Federal Aid?
3-Will the county make arrange
ments to apply for Federal Aid in an
amount greater than $90,O77.80 but
ess than $191, 100000 if so in what
amount?
4-Will the county make arrange
ments to apply for the amount, $751;
100000 suggested, or
5-Does the county wish to apply
for Federal Aid in an amount greater
than $191, 100000, and if so in what
amount?
In conclusion we wish to state en-
phatically that in every case where
a road is built under Federal and State
Aid the State Highway Commission
will endeavor to secure a type of con-
struction suitable to the traffic needs
of the road, and the Improvement will
be so planned that the cost of the road
will be low in proportion to the re-
sultant saving in the cost of hauling
and travelling over the road.
The roads to be improved under the
described program are the principal
roads in the county, roads which on
account of their Importance to the
county will require substantial i'm
provement within a few years.
If the county neglects this opportun.
ity to have it's main roads substanti.
ally built, with the county paying less
than one-half of the cost the obvious
result will be that at an early date
the county will be compelled to beal
the entire expense for this work.
:, Respectfully submitted,
State Highway Commission

WILL SAVE MILLIONS

Independent Voters Association boosters, re-
dictionary newspapers, old gang politicians and
other elements now working so industriously in
North Dakota to defeat the wishes of the people
and prevent the industrial program enacted by
the Sixteen assembly from becoming effective
make the question of increased taxes the pivot
of all their so-called arguments.
They concoct many clever stunts to try to
scare the taxpayers of the state but never men
ton any of the laws passed by the recent assem-
bly,, one of which will return to the farmers
OF North Dakota many ines over what they
will pay in increased taxes-even taking the
figures of the opponents as a basis.
One of the laws that will do this-and one of
the greatst laws ever put on the statute books
in North Dakota-is one that is known as the
grain grading and inspection act. This law pro-
vides for putting into effect ideas long advo-
Gated by men opposed to the grain combine rob-
berry that has existed in this state for so many
years.
This bill not only provides for the establish
ment of uniform grades for grain but it also pro-
vides for the payment for all dockage Of value
no matter how badly mixed such dockage might
be. While the farmers have long advocated such
a law as this the Sixteenth Assembly was the
first legislative body to give them What they
asked.
Heretofore grain concerns operating in North
Dakota have not only through the grain mems
organization set the price to be paid for the
various grades but they have also arbitrarily
made those grades. Under the new law a uni
form grade will be established which must be
observed by grain dealers in handling the prod
ucts of the farm. Under the old plan the dockage
of from five to twenty pounds per bushel has
been directly lost to the farmers of the state
who have not only given this dockage to the
grain men but have also paid freight on it to
the terminal market and bought it back again
after paying return freight also, as well as ex-
orbitant prices for this dockage for feed pur-
poses.
This system has resulted in a tremendous loss
to the farmers of the state in the past who have
had no recourse except the installation Of high
priced cleaning machinery on every farm, which
was an impossibility in the majority Of cases.
With the people in control of the lawmaking ma
chinery of the state, these conditions have been
changed, and when the farmers of North Dako-
ia market their grain this fall they will receive
pay for every pound of dockage Of value at the
time of marketing which will mean a saving in
an ordinary crop year of more than enough to
pay all the increase in taxes that will be paid in
the next ten years.

E UP PROGRESS

The very interests who are now publishing
their fear of "bolshevism" in the United States
are themselves the chief promoters of unrest.
AS Governor Frazier of North Dakota pointed
out to some eastern editors recently our great
enemy is ~bourbonism, that spirit of private gain
at any price which prevents the country from
meeting it's new problems and emergencies.
What clear thinking citizen has not been Sc
riously alarmed, for instance, at our failure to
check war profiteering and later to provide for
reconstruction The reactionary fears that the
hungry and the outraged workers may become
desperate. The sensible citizens are alarmed be-
cause we are disregarding the right of those
classes on whom our whole industrial structure
rests-the tillers of the soil and the workers in
the factory. They see our danger in this disre-
gard and not in the fact that after it's results
are apparent in the farm income and the pay
check, the workers may feel some strenuous rem
edy may be necessary.
The best protection to our present political
system is to let it work fairly for the people.
Our people would, indeed, have rabbits blood
in their veins if they were not impatient at our
progress. Naturally there are little groups of
workers here and there who think that relief
by political action is impossible. These groups
will grow in converts if we do not begin to make
speed.
For over 10 years, for instance, the great ma
jority Of our people have been opposed to child
labor; yet several generations Of American
children have been dragged through this body
and soul blighting condition since, and it is still
going on. "A spontaneous cry against war profit
Eteering went up from the people throughout the
country; yet congress could not hear it. Con-
gress lost reconstruction completely-even the
soldiers were grossly neglected.
Let the alarmists remember that there will
never be any serious disturbances in America
SO long as the people feel that their ideas are
being enacted into law as our democracy de-
,mands. Stop obstruction.

THE NORTH DAKOTA STATE BANK,

With a speed that is now characteristic of
North Dakota affairs, the new state bank is
being organized and very shortly will be open
for business. j. R. Waters, a man who has
proven his loyalty and worth as state bank ex-
aminer, will have charge. Bank quarters have
been rented in Bismarck. The next steps are. to
get the necessary banking furniture and to re-
ceive public and private deposits.
Most of the 700 state banks will probably
quit their alliance with the Twin Cities and line
up with the new state bank as the central place
for keeping reserves. It will be good business to
doxso, for the state bank can serve them better.
And there is another strong reason-banks like
public funds. The state bank will redeposit some
of the funds in member banks.
By acting for these state banks in the same
way the central federal banks, the new state
bank will greatly increase the banking facilities
of the state. The local bank will be able to take
the notes of farmers and business men to the
state bank and rediscount them, or, in other
words, get money on them which it can loan to
other farmers and business men.
Again the state bank of North Dakota will
have $40, O00 $1,000 which it can loan directly on
first mortgages and on warehouse receipts for
grain. With this service it will kill off the fore
closure shark in that state and lower the gener-
al rate on farm mortgages by at least | per cent,
probably more, through it's competition. The
grain farmer will be able to get money on his
grain stored in an accepted warehouse and at
the same tint hold it for a better market.
A few months ago the Nonpartisan league de
mand for q financial system run for the benefit
of the people may have looked very visionary
to some. Now that this demand has taken on
definite shape it looks like the most common
sense Of ideas. Already the Kansas state bank
ers are demanding that their state copy the
plan.
How the best American society will buzz with
oycitnnnnnf whnn tho Russian nnhilitv now Inv.
