EOtfrERS FOILED
On Friday steps were taken to stop
the run on the state treasury. Sec
Eretafy wv. "A. Anderson Of the indus
Etrial commission advised the Bank Of
North Dakota as its attorney to stop
payment on checks issued to Lauder
and Nu6h6ls.
These checks have not come to
the bank for collection, but when they
do come they will not be paid" said
[Mr. Anderson. 1.-THE Bank Of North
Dakota is the custodian Of the public
funds, and it does not propose to see
them deliberately stolen or misap-
propfiated by anyone, even If they do
the auditing board.
1.-THE auditing board, it is true, has
the right to audit all valid claims
against the state, and the treasurer,
must pay them. But there is no law
, which can compel paymen Of false
claims approved by an auditing board
that has made up its mind to steal
under the guise Of it's official place
in the state government. The Off
Gals Of the bank would be just as big
crooks as the three that are respon-
asible for this deal if they permitted
payment to be made on the checks
issued to Nuchols and Lauder.
WILL HAVE TO SUE FOR 1T
hangers men will not get the loot
which the majority of the auditing
board handed them yesterday. If
they want it they will have to go to
the courts for it. The burden of
proof is on LANCER, Kositzky, Hall,
Nuchols and Lauder, that there is a
valid claim against the state, and
that money is not being deliberately
stolen from the treasury"
The hooters picked out an espe-
cially propitious time for their work,
for according to Deputy State Treas
urer A. L. Young, the general fund
of the state is no longer BROKE"
BUT HAS A BALANCE OF ABOUT
$35O,OOO. THIS is DUE TO THE
PAYMENT OF THE STANDARD
OIL COMPANY TAXES, AND THE
FIRST ALLOTMENT OF TAXES
RECEIVED FROM THE COUN-
TIES.

N. D. LAWS BENEFIT
CANADIAN FARMERS

A most unusual tribute to the sue
cess of the new League laws was paid
recently by the editor of an l. v. A.
paper, Frank Prochaska, formerly
editor of the Walsh County Farmers
Press, was at Mohall recently and
asked Editor Harding of the Mohall
Tribune News, an I. Y. A. organ, how
Mohall was prospecting. Harding re-
piled that Mohall was doing fine and
that Sherwood was enjoying unusual

TURNCOATS ATTEMPT
To RAID TREASURY
LANCER, HALL AND KOSITZKY
FOOLED WHEN STATE BANK
REFUSES CHECKS.

Having failed as bank wreckers,
LANCER, Hall and Kositzky staged a
raid on the state treasury beginning
Thursday with the payment by Lang
er to Judge S. L. Nuchols, of Man
dan, a former law partner of Lang
er's, and Judge Nv. S. Lauder, of Wah-
peten, one of Langer's partners in
the Scandinavian-Ameri bank raid,
Of $3.50, for future services main
ly. This footing of the state treas
ury followed extensive purchases by
these turncoat politicians Of railroad
mileage earlier in the week and was
followed Frids y by further attempts.

ers point out that the whole nation IL
ct last awakened to Z problem to which
the League farmers were giving ear
nest attention before We entered the
war.
With the declaration Of war the
League announced program to pre-
vent war proflteering. Not only was
this program, to which tho whole coun-
try Il now coming, ignored by govern
ment oflcials but the League was faced
with disloyalty charges and mob vio-
lence because Of II.
This program demanded c0nscription

cost of the war and thus prevent infia.
ton Of currency. Instead the govern
ment has floated huge bond issues and
certificates Of Indebtedness which nat
urally reduced the purchasing power
of the dollar and stimulated prof1teer-
Ing.
As complementary measure to pro-
>ect the dollar the League urged reor-
ganization of marketing so that pro.
duction could be stimulated Even
with the bond issues greatly increased
production would have kept prices
down. But the government allowed
those who manipulate markets for big
profits to keep control of production.
The facts now show that the great
war profits were secured by hold-up
prices for the same or smaller pro-
duction.
These methods are being continued
by the huge trusts built up through
war experience to peace time business,
and the League holds that the only re-
lief for the people lies in abolishing
these trusts and the stimulating OF
fundamental production as called for
by its program.

the Wisconsin Mortgage and Securt
ties company and has capital stock
OF 5000, 200. It was organized in 1913
and during the first five years of it's
existence it made loans to sixteen hun.
dred farmers aggregating five millions
Of dollars. The second of these insti.
tutions is known as the Bankers Joint

While these facts show the financial
relation Of Mr.. Moehlenpah to agricul.
tural interests. they barely hint at his
great activity in behalf Of the farmers
for he was active in Wisconsin and al
Washington, D. c., in behalf Of the
legislation which resulted in the pass.

work in Wisconsin before going to
Washing ton was that Of getting under
way the organization Of cattle loan
company for the purpose Of financing
the movement Of pure bred stock from
southern Wisconsin to northern dis
tricts Of that state. He had been &C

with many movements like grain con.

Many times he has been chairman OF

However, Mr.. Moehlenpah is not
merely a country banker. He is one
who understands the larger aspects of
finance and is able to think Of finan.
cial problems in large units. He was
considerable factor In the discussions
Of the federal reserve act before II
became law and perhaps more than
any single individual was responsible
for the endorsement Of this act by the

The Cost Of War.

From the time our constitution was
adopted to 1917 the total cost of our

the two war years, 1917 and 1918, we
