wAlTlNG?-Nor MUCH.

1t lisa distressing picture the president
paints of the world as be sees it waiting,
waiting for his league Of nations to come
into being and provide panaces for all
Its ills. "Albthe world Is waiting" Mr..
Wilson walls, with what unnerving
fears and haunting doubts who can
adequately sayf-waiting to know when
it shall have peace and what kind of
peace 1t will be when it comes-a peace
III which each nation shall make shift
for itself as it can, or peace buttress.
ed and supported by the will and con-
cert of the nations that have the pur-
pose and the power to do and to enforce
what is right"
Bosh! Mention of the league IN the
British parliament was hailed with de.
rision and laughter. The French place
no credence in its power for peace, but
insist that their safety shall be guaran-
teed through defensive alliance with
England and America. As matter OF
fact few people in Europe have even
heard of the league of nations, or given
it moments consideration if they have
seen it mentioned. The disdain of Eur
opean powers for its terms is shown in
the fact that all of them insist that their
secret treaties shall not be abrogated in
accordance with the covenant, and many
of them have made distinct reservations
on matters that intimately concern their
welfare. Mr.. Wilson's picture of the
distracted Europeans standing around
with ''unnerving fears and haunting
doubts" in their faces, waiting for the
United States Senate to make an actual
ity of the league of nations, is but
product of his own fevered imagination.

TAXES INCREASE.

The board of equalization that met at
Bismarck Monday increased the valua.
ton on lands in the Red River Valley
counties so that it will be felt when this
years taxes become due. 1t has been
apparant all the time that the way
things, were being managed at the CAPT.
tol the increase in taxes must come
sometime. State Auditor Kositzky. who
bolted the Townley faction last winter
was the only one of the board who voted
against the increase. Governor Frazier
and State Treasurer Olson voted for the
raise.
AS result of this action of the state
board farm land values as returned by
the county boards of equalization are all
raised save in ten counties in the state.
We find the following increases: Penn.
bina county from s3O.14~ cents per acre
to $45.79; Walsh county from s32,79 to
5000; Cavalier county from s27.15 to
s38. o.. Grand Forks county from s31.2l

have money to run the affairs of the
state goes without saying, and the board
