TOWNLEY'S DOMINATION
CRITICIZED BY KOSITZKl

Valley City, N. D., April CT do
not believe laws SHOULD be written
into North Dakota's statute books by
threat or force" declared State Aud
itor Karl Kositzky here Sunday af-
ternoon, "and if any one man is pos
sessed Of such power it is high time
he was deprived of that power and
that it be restored to the people"
Kositzky spoke to an audience of
Barnes county farmers that packed
the court house here. He criticized
A. G. Townley's domination Of state
administrative affairs and attacked
the educational, printinfi, judicial and
immigration bills.
Saturday night he spoke to another
audience composed largely of city peo-
pie.
'Four years ago, when the farmers
went to Bismarck and demanded GER
tain legislation, they were told to go
home and slop their hogs.
This year when they had everything
in their power, Townley threatened
many of the legislators and state Of
ficials politically if they did not do
as he said. Instead of telling them
to slop their hogs, he told one of them,
Senator Mees, to go home and lie
like damn horse thief
"You don't have to take my word
for this talk to Mees. Simon Nagle
or H. A. Harmon, or Attorney General
LANCER all heard it, and they are men
of reputation, and l want to tell you
that people who are trying to destroy
their reputation and mind have no
reputation themselves. leave it to
the people,"
Kositzky declared it is time the peo-
pie of the city and farmers united for
the betterment of town and country.
He deprecated hatred that obtains in
many communities against the farm
ers and in rural sections against city
people. In regard to the printing bills,
he declared that it would mean 81 ,25O,-
600 profits annually to the Brinton
string of papers.
The educational bill, he said, pro-
vides that commission shall determ
inc what text books are to be used
and the bill provides no limit in price
that they shall charge for these books.
They can charge 81 or $5, he said.
KositzIy also wondered who would
write the text books-whether it would
be Townley or Mills.
81 wouldn't want my Children he
declared, ''to be forced to study doc
trines of Walter Thomas Mills"
He attacked the judicial bill because
of it's increase in district judges and
it's additional cost to the state. He
said some Nonpartisan leaguers had
proposed bill reducing the number
of Judges from twelve to ten, but Will
liam Lemke declared they should have
fifteen Judges and that Lemke had his
way.

The annual school election was held
last Saturday when two trustees were
elected to serve for the coming two
years.
c. R. St. Clair and B. P. Langen,
both present members of the school
board, were reelected.
St. Clair received the highest vote,
receiving 21S; Langen received TIA;
Sherman SO; Pete Nyquist 13, and
Mrs. c. E. Behner 3.
The feature of the election was the
fact that there were more votes cast
at this election than at any previous
election ever held in the district.

HIGH LIVING COST
NO BAR TO SAVING
Savings Banks Reports Indicate
Record Deposits During War
and Since Ar;listiCe.

Reports recently received from saw
inEs banks and institutions record an
increase rather than a decrease of de-
posits throughout the entire country.
From the Atlantic to the Pacific the
reports indicate that the purchase of
Government bonds and Savings
Stamps have taught the public TO in
crease their savings. Since the armis-
tice was signed particularly the saw
ings banks have been flooded with de-
posits.
In New York State savings banks
deposits a short time ago passed the
$4,000, 100000 mark, and the number
of depositors totals more than $780,
900.
In the latter part of May savings
banks of Los Angeles reported depos-
its of approximately s160,000,0o0 The
q. S. Postal Savings banks found jan
uary and February of the present year
exceptionally big months for savings.
Net deposits for March had dropped
TO about half what they were in Jam
uary. officials of the postal savings
banks, however, said that March is al
ways at low figure in deposits be-
cause of the annual labor migra ton.
This year also receipts were lowered
by the Withdrawals of aliens who were
attempting to return to Europe. The
total increase, however, during the
three months was approximately &c.
100000.
The postal savings banks have con-
Quoted only very limited educational
campaigns in the past, and credit for
recent big increases Is freely given to
the work done In the Savings Stamp
campaigns. Persons who get the thrift
habit practice 1t in savings deposits
as well as in Thrift and Savings
Stamp purchases, it has been shown.
The figures prove that in the ire
mendous call upon the people of the
country for money to float the Liberty
Loans and the War Savings Cam
paigns deposits were not generally
withdrawn from the savings banks.
On the contrary, it appears that extra
effort has been made to pay for stamps
and bonds cut Of the family income
without touching the NEST eggs" that
are growing in the savings banks.
An interesting statement prepared
by the National War Savings Commit
tee of Great Britain says, The estab-
lishment of the National Savings
Movement did not starve other organi-
cations for thrift It stimulated them"
1t also shows that deposits In the Brit
ish Post Office Savings Bank were
$3.50, 900 in 1915 and Increased to
S242, 900, 900 in 1919.
A Commerce Report issued in June
shows that in Japan all records for
savings have been broken in the early
part Of this year. The average month
ly increase has been about 1900, 900
yen (s5,982 ,0O0) since February, 1913
II may well be noted by Americans
that they will be obliged to practice
thrift to the utmost il the United
States is not to lag behind the other
nations in savings.

GARY's WONDERFUL GROWTH

The L S. census bureau yesterday substantiated
Garys claim that she reigns supreme among Lake
county cities by announcing officially that Garys popu-
lation numbered over $4,000 souls and ever since Gary
has been receiving congratulations. Hammond is fore
ed to step back into second place with East Chicago a
close third. The only way for the North township cities
to beat out Gary in the matter of population is to get
together and amalgamate and that seems to be far in
the distance when their individual and collective growth
Jams them all into one another and they cannot help
themselves in stopping Inauguration.
While many prominent Gary men insist that the
census enumeration has been somewhat slipshod and
that the city is nearer $4,000 than $1,000, there is
every reason TO believe that Gary will accept the figures
gracefully and shake hands with herself at her mar
velous growth. There was the same dissatisfaction
with the 1910 figures of 1862 when announced. many
claiming a larger population. The trouble with Gary
Is that her population is never the same for two sue
eessive days. She grows so fast that it Is impossible
to keep track of it and nobody knows how much the city
has gained even since the 1920 enumeration was listed.
What Garys population in 1880 will be IS CT
course a matter of speculation. pure and simple. but

HOW FREE SHOULD THE FOREIGNER BE,

Thomas R. Marshall, vice president of these United
States. had a few things to say yesterday about the
freedom OF the press and the freedom Ct speech before
? body of newspaper men. His remarks are significant
regarding the talking against this country by foreigners:
4 stand for the freedom OF the press declared
the vice president. Il do not favor limiting that free
dom by legislation. But l do believe in Soaking it to
the fellow who is not an American citizen and who
causes trouble by saying things against the L. S.
Il believe that every man shall be permitted to
say what he wants TO about the government. so long
as he is an American and stays within the law. But
when he violates the law, urges others to violate the
law and sets himself in defiance of the law Of this gov
eminent that is another matter.
As an American-born citizen OF two generations
back 1t is my privilege to advocate in this country a
form of Socialist or monarchial government If de-
sire. Nc law can or should take away those rights.
But if l had come from across the sea. accepted Ct this
nation bountiful hospitality and benefits, then | would
not have that right"

ECHOES OF 1900.

In the light of William J. Bryan's recent state
ment that the people had accepted nearly all the
reforms" he has advocated it is worth recalling that
in 1900 he ran for president on a platform declaring for:
/. Initiative. referendum and imperative mandate.
:. Public ownership and. operation Of railroads
telegraph and telephone lines, coal mines. etc.
s. Prohibition Of alien ownership Of land, and
eclamatio by the government of all land now owned
by railroads and corporations, and not used by them.
I. Fiat money, currency on a paper basis free
silver.
.. Graduated tax on incomes and inheritances,
and a constitutional amendment TO secure it.
6. Election of president. vice president. federal
Judges and United states senators by popular vote
:. Public ownership CT public utilities.
These planks were all included IN the platform
adopted by the Peoples party that year, and Mr..
Bryan accepted the nomination OF that party Tor presi-
dent on that platform.
That same year the democratic national platform
demanded the repeal Of the war taxes. and a return
to the tirne-honored democratic policy OF strict economy, '
the a.scing of ~ rust-maee products on the free list.
ard ne prohibition OF interstate commerce oy any
corp0 alton which has issued watered stock, aud the
free eDG unlimited coinage ot silver at the ratio of six
teen 10 che without waiting FOL the aid or consent Of any
other nation.
