Essay on Silence

Silence is something like in others
Sometimes loud noise is necessary to get Silence
The louder the noise before the Silence the sencer the
Silence.
Silence is potent than noise; witness the power of
lightning, the weakness Of thunder.
Solitude is Silence marooned 1t is Silence multiplied by
loneliness.
Silence promotes peace, tho WIN it to fighting
the Silent warrior is to be feared consider Useless
Grant of the Swivel War;
At times fear Silence at others, Silence causes
fear
Silence is not material yet it is often felt
Strange to great orators Silence almost eff

Give Us the Facts

The tone OF diplomatic exchanges between our govern
ment and Mexico becomes more and more serious.
The lingo element, connected in the American mind
with large Mexican property holding interests make the
most of this
In many of the country they have got the people
believing right the of armed intervention
In the meantime the people kept in the dark about
the facts of the present controversy Not in
hundred is willing to base decision anything he has
seen printed about the of William o. Jenkins. our
Pueba consul who held for investigation by Mexican
civil authorities the criminal charge of giving false and
perured testimony in regard to his kidnapping but who
is at liberty on bail.
The department is not playing this game with its
. cards the table.
Jenkins is presumably suspected by Mexican authorities
Of connvng for profit at his kidnapping II this
proved by the Mecans otherwise the American people
will not be for intervention his account.
s II, the other hand it be proved to be false
and malicious charge trmped up by the Mexican
ment, they will be for Intervention.
Today there is only thing certain Neither the
state department nor congress, any other of
government, effectively declare war on Mexico
or intervene without the support of the people as a
whole. And that support only be based on full
knowledge of what is going

spent half IN hour In proving that the

a little over 12O%. while the state
taxes Of Jacob Weber, Of Burleigh

out mighty yell of approval. Well,

The Townlsy interests recently pur-
chased the Center Republican from
Bert Thurston. and finally closed the
deal after slipping up on the original
terms. One of the first issues of the
paper under the new control admits
the following:

to $3,711 ,021 in 1919. $50 There is

the following:

OF complete league control, TIL e
increase in state expenses alhounted
to more than the total state exbess<
last yesf-the increase admitted be-
ing two million and the whole ex-
pense last year being only $1,718,AOs.
Last year the state share II tsxes
was less than ten per cent, and the
increase this year in total taxation
may reach % per cent Of the whole.
total tax. If those two statements
are true, then the state tax this year,
will be many times this state tax last
year--for there win be no appreci-.
able difference in the county, school
and city taxes. If last year a farmer
paid exactly 500 in taxes, ths league
organ admits that he paid lesss than
ten dollars for the cost of state gov
ernment. 1t also admits that that
farmer may be forced this year to
pay sl2s. Now, that league organ is
only dealing in state taxation figures.
It. doesn't know anything about the
various county taxes for they are not
uniform throughout the state. Hence,
they have admitted in their argu-
ment a farmer who last year paid
$40 for state expenses will this year
pay the 'ten-spot as usual-and an ad-
ditional $28, or $3s in all-practically
four times as much for state expen-
SEES.
And thus it becomes apparent at
last that Non-partisan League news
papers are admitting just about the
exact figures that the Record has
suspected would actually show ND
when we pay our taxes next fall.
So, on the question of increased tax
as, there isn't any difference of opin-
ion whatever. Their papers admit
an added state tax practically four
to one, and. that is what we have an
ticipated all along. And here is the
only difference: The Leaguers are 4
trying to camoudage the main fea-
ture Of their state extravaganza by
using the figures of total taxation. InlI
other words, they quote the total at i
twenty-five millions for the new
year, as compared to twenty millions
last year. The county, city and
school expenses will remain practi-
cally the same. Hence, the addition
al five millions is mostly going to be
used to pay the leagues vast array
Of new political jobs, the additional
judges at $4,000 each, the immigra-
ton commissioner at $4,000 per, with
5000, 900 to spend, etc.
Taxpayers! No such grand finan-i
cial orgy in state finances has been
known in the history of the nation,
barring the famous "Tweed Ring" in
New York, and the Reconstruction.
Days in the South.
