President Nicholas Murray Butler Of
Columbia university, recently a candi.
date for the presidency of the United
| States, and eliminated at the Republi.
can convention in Chicago, did the com
mendable thing in apologizing to Col
William G.. Proctor and other support
ers of Major General Wood for intern
perate words used directly after the
convention and tending to cast serious
reflection on the character of the Wood
support However, it is scarcely an ex-
cuse for man of Buffers position to
forget himself as he did even though he
was under the strain, turmoil and ia
tigue" of the Chicago convention and
sin sharp revolt against the power of
money in politics." We expect to find
judicial temperament in persons oc-
cupying positions such as Butler holds.
Possibly the outburst of petulance and
resentment gives some intimation why
Butler was not more seriously consid-
cred as candidate for the presidential
nomination. Outside of his own state
delegation Butler was not supported;
and, of course, the New York support
of him was purely perfunctory such as
accorded home-state candidates now
and then.

In view of, the leagues oft-repeated
tax talk it is refreshing to occasional
ly find out what North Dakota,s real
tax facts are. In this connection the
following from the editorial columns
of the Fargo Forum is rather illumi-
mating: n
cit does not seem possible that any
voter can be fooled with the claims of
lower tax rates in North Dakota un-
der the Nonpartisan league admins
tration, yet constant repetition of a
half truth or an untruth may cause
some to believe it, if it is not repeat
edly explained or denied.
'The state levy this year for all
purposes is 10 mills. 1t is true that
this figure is lower than the levy a
year ago, but it is made on. a greatly
increased valuation and no reference
is made by the Nonpartisan league
papers, to the other taxes collected
this year, such as the income tax, the
state oil tax, and the stock and bond
tax. .'"f ."s

TAX COMPARISONS.

|NNE of the favorite pastimes of
~ the nonpartisan league and farm
er labor speakers is to compare the
per capita tax in North Dakota and
Washington. By. their own methods
of figuring they have arrived at a
result which, gives North Dakota a
lower per. capita tax than Washing
ton.
1t so happens that the nonparti-
san league has done to taxes in North
Dakota what Heinz did to the pickles
manufactured 81 varieties. In ad-
dition to the direct property tax there
are in state income tax, the state oil
tax, the money and credits tax, the
stock and bond tax and similar taxa
ton DISCUSSES all of which ane in eff
feet direct taxes upon the people Of
North Dakota. For comparison pur-
poses, however, the league campaign
ers, disregard all these special taxes
and compare only the direct state
levies of the two states. Nor is this
all; before making the comparison
leagues expert jugglers see fit to de-
duct North Dakota's tax Of $761 900
for soldiers bonus, but entirely over
look Washington's 100000 for mill
tary relief. Again North Dakota's
state levy carries $2,500,444. This
two and a half million the league also
forgets to deduct. What they do not
forget, however, is to place the popu-
lation of North Dakota at $4,000
whereas the 1920 census credits the
state with only 645,000. In other
words they have given a striking DEM
onstration Of the fact that while Zig

Editor Cox seldom wrote an edi-

caused sensational things to happen

usually the filing of a suit in open
