Strange Economy
{ (From The Anoka Herald.

One Of the main reasons why the
farmers of North Dakota fell SO
unitedly for the socialistic form of
state government, which now prevails
in that state, was the promise of
greater economy in the management
of the business of the state and con-
sequent reduction in the taxes levied
upon real and personal property there
For two years the political sirens
have lured the farmers into the fold BY
means Of this lowered taxes song.
That the farmers of North Dakota
are doomed to bitter disappointment
when they pay their taxes next Jan
uary will be proven in another article.
One Of the reasons why their taxes
will be much higher we aim to present
here.
Under House Bill No. 18 passed by
the State legislature of North Dako-
ia, absolutely under the control of
the Nonpartisan League, there was
created The Bank of North Dakota.
This law was approved February 25th,
1919 by Governor Lynn j. Frazier,
elected by and controlled by the bosses
of the Nonpartisan League of the
state.
The proof Of these statements may
be found on pages three to seven, in
sive, of the published session laws of
1919 of North Dakota.
1t being established then that the
Bank Of North Dakota is child Of the
Nonpartisan League, let us look bit
into its management up to the present
time. Space permits but brief glance
just now. The information which we
have at hand would occupy pages.
In the matter of salaries and ex-
penses of officials connected with the
bank the law is vague, no doubt inten-
tionally. Section 4 states: The total
compensation of such appointees
and employees, together with other
expenditures, shall remain within the
appropriation ($1OO, O,000.00) and earn
ings available each year for such pur-
pose"

vALDEzANS GALL WICK BLUFF TO
 MAKE EVIDENCE
Former Delegate Makes Himself q Law Unto Him. self But Does Not Get
 Away With 1t.

Valdez people Saturday appealed as 10 whether or not they hcd to obey subpocnas issuel By Judge Wickersham and to give sworn testi- mony before Notary Public desig- mated by him bearing upon an allcg- ed election contest involving the yot- ing of last November Of course the legal advice was to pay TO al tention to the subpoenas.
 The receipt of tho request caused no little indignation here. It indi- cates that Judge Wickersham is run ming characteristic bluff on the Valdez people, and they have called him.
 There has been no contest started, and there is no authority of law OF regulations or precedent, say Juneau lawyers, for any one to issue pro cesses of any sort or to compel any one to testify or make affidavits in the premises
 Wickersham's performance as in dicated in these telegrams, is re garded by Juneau lawyers as clear attempt to intimidate people, and . high handed effort to manufacture testimony to be used in a proceed ing which he will try to pull off al Washington before the people Of AL asla have a chance to choose their own Delegate to Congress.
