When the leaders of the Noppartisan
League saw opposition develape when
the ,votewas taken on the bonding bill
Governor Frazier was sent for to bring
them milne which he did ;in.asvery
unique way. He made the statement
that he would call special election up.
ON the presentation of a petition con-
tanning l5,0oO names which was just
half the 'nNmber required by law.
Everybody cheered the governor xor bis
magnanlmous stand taken and fell IN
line. Poor delnded mortals. No one
knew better than Mr.. Frazier that an
election called on petition with less
signatures than required by law would
lbe illegal. iBut.it,did it's work.

THE NEXT CONGRESS.


Last Monday, March 3rd. the sixty
fifth congress went out Of existance.
The sixty sixth congress came into exis-
tance the following day according by
law and the constitution, but. unless
called by the president in extra session
it will not covene until the first Monday
in December. The outgoing congress
was Democratic but the Republicans
will control both houses Of congress for
the next two years at least.
A Democratic congress and Demo
cratic president took the responsibility
for the war policy Of the United States.

LEGISLATURE ADJOURNS.

The 18th Legislative Assembly OF
North Dakota has adjourned and Is now
a MATTER Of record. It is one OF the
most phenomenal fetes ever pulled off
by tive men ~ any state in the Union and
perhaps has No equal in the world.
Five msn. total strangers to the voters
Of the state started out on a political
campaiga four years ago. They first
asked the voters to give them nine dol
lars for the privilege Of managing their
political atfsirs. Two years later they
increased this amount to sixteen dollars.
The money rolled in under the smooth
talk and management of these self-con-
stltuted leaders. Everything came their
way and they carried the last election
with large majority.
During the session OF the Legislature
that closed Saturday not single per.
son rho was elected to represent the
people had anything to say what legis,
lstion should be enacted. That was
planned at private caucus at night.
II anyone dared to oppose any measure
laid out by the bosses he was threatened
with expulsion or something else. that
would harm him locally at home. The
guiding hand of the big five was SO firm
that bills that we're once passed would
be recalled at the order OF the bosses
and changes made whenever the notion
struck them.
The adoption Of the league industrial
program and the related measures, will
increase the total taxation burden in the
state from ga 500. COO. the 1918 revenue
for state and local purposes, to about
$50 0000. .O00 of which about 100000
will be for state purposes, compared
with about $500, 600. the previous re-
venue.
The strangest part OF it all is that
these five leaders who have claimed the
state of North Dakota as their home on
ly paid an average Of seventy three
cents taxes last year.

H. H. Steele, state tax commissioner,
makes the statement that the total col.

pending administration measures, pro.

would be $14, 900, compared with
$2,527, ,293 collected for state purposes last

Last week Missouri, Kansas and Ok.
lahoma and part of Iowa were swept
with the third blizzard of the season.
Snow piled in huge drifts and railroad
traffic was practically at a standstill
Here in the Red River Valley we have
yet to have our first blizzard this winter,
there is very little enow on the ground
and automobiles are running pretty gen.
orally. The weather all winter has been
ideal and cattle have been rustling on
the fields and meadows. Why should
there not be demand for Red River VAL

for.

NONPARTISAN MEETING.

A meeting at the City Hall on Tues.
day afternoon last, addressed by Mr..
Brewer of the Nonpartlsan league was
attended by about forty who came to be
enlightened as to the provisions of some
of the bills passed by the recent legis.
lature. Mr.. Brewer admitted that he
knew but little about the bills in ques-
tion and his knowledge was only gener.
al. His talk was such as to add moth
ing to the general knowledge respecting
the league program as represented by
the bills recently passed. while admit
ting that it was right and proper for any
person honestly opposed to any of the
new legislation to sign petition to have
such matters referred to the people, his
talk was really attempts to have people
refrain from taking such course. He
was pleasing talker and good story.
teller, but in view OF his admission of
ignorance as to the details of the bills
due to causes beyond his control his gen.
efai CalK was weak.
Walter Welford was present and dis.
cussed the provisions of the new state
hail insurance bill. He stated it was
simply compromise measure and an ex-
pertinent and it was possible it would be
amended in several particulars at the
next legislature. He stated that the
laws recently passed represented the
league program, but believed that sew
eral measures should be submitted to
the people for final decision, and not to
represent his views as to several details

concerning the prosecution OF the war.
He has won himself . host Of enemies

The elimination came recently
whom Ferdinand Kahlbrenner. also of
Marietta, brought suit for $4,000
against the prize patriot Of the
county. The suit followed a signed
article in Marietta paper. in which
Mr.. Heckert aired his views regarding
the refusal of many Of his townsmen
to buy Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps. The jury did not deliberate
long over the evidence and returned q
verdict for Mr.. Hsckert.
"The land Of my adoption is the
only land that recognize" Mr.. Heck.
ert said in telling his experiences to
A. R. Rogers. Chairman Of the Ninth
District War Loan Organization. This
government has made It possible for
me to succeed in business and what.

have whenever 1t desires It. The Jury
that gave me the verdict apparently
thought that a man who bought five
or six times as many Liberty Bonds as
his allotment called for, could not be
very disloya!."
"The case Of Mr.. Heckert," said
Chairman Rogers, "is proof that the
majority of American citizens of Ger.
man birth are loyal to their adopted
country"
Chairman Hayden Of Madison de.
elared that the story of Mr.. Heckert

The story should bring shame to
many persons who have been eyading

7. a. Hail. travelling salesman for
Byrne & Hammer Co.. has plenty
of sand" In fact, he's got en-
tirely too much-much more than he
wants. During the last 10 years he
has travelled over sand, sand and
still more sand, selling dry goods
for his firm. Hall has sold his
wares to the merchants of western
Nebraska amid unending stretches
of sand dunes until sand has be-
come part of his nature.
One summer Hall grew tired Of
passing through the gray wastes on
the train and decided that he would
cover his territory by automobile.
Accordingly, he placed the neces-
sary equipment on his four wheeler
and even went so far as to take his
family. After a few days, Hall
found that the territory was cover
ing him, in place of him covering
the territory, and has since been
content to view the whirlng re-
mains of rocks from the glacier pc
riod from his seat in a chair car.
For eight years Hall was an as
sistant manager before taking the
road. For 10 years he has covered
his western Nebraska district. Since
he is only SO years old and appar-
entity still a good risk for the insur-
ance companies, he expects to be
able to continue to get acquainted
with the Cornhusker state. He is
married, lives at 1901 North Fiftieth
street and has a daughter, Grace.
