ONE CAIISE OF H C. l..

Everybody is looking for relief
from the high cost Of living and one
of the direct means of bringing this
about is to cut out the high cost OF
taxation. The Federal government
before the war was content to tax
on an average $50 year every
American family, over and above the
state, county and city taxes. The
Federal tax this year approximates
$3.50 per family.
It is true that wages have advan-
ced, nominally if not in purchasing
power, but wages have not doubled
the past year while federal taxation
has Increased five fold and the aver
age American gets no more from the
government in return than when ne
was paying only one fifth as much of
a tax.
The burden of taxation is too great
and the political party which gives the
promise of most certainly reducing
the burden will be selected as the
choice of thousands of voters this
year, regardless of any past political
affiliations.
The process Of passing taxes on to
the ultimate consumer is now seen
clearly. 1t is done in many ways
from the luxury tax to the tax on
necessaries and the tax on real es-
tate, and this is not done by prof.
teers but by ordinary business and the
usual manner of transacting business.
The public is the ultimate payer no
matter what kind of scheme to put
the burden on one certain class, is adj
VOcated

that the production of milk producing
animals was away behind the demand
of the country for milk products and
that there is no danger Of over sup
plying the market with Holstein or
any breed of pure bred cattle. The
gathering last night was certainly a
very interesting and instructing one
and it is to be regretted that more
Valley City business men were not
present. DR.. Van Houten has worked
hard and INCREASINGLY to make this sale
and meeting now being held in this
city success and it is success and
to him should be given great big
share of the credit. He is hard
worker and a firm believer in pure
bred stock raising and has one of the
finest herds in the state on his own
dairy farm.

H0LSTEIN BREEDERS
HAVE BANQUET

The North Dakota Holstein Breed
ers Association served banquet to
rs people at the Rudolf Hotel last
night, very appetizing spread being
put on by Mine Host Geselius. T. x.
Calnan was passed the buck by DR.. j.
Van Houten, to preside as POSTMASTER
and Tom filled the bill very NIGEL y.
Ex-President William Howard Taft,
who had arrived at the hotel on No. 8
was asked to speak to those present
and Mr.. Taft in his usual genial,
thoughtful and instructive manner for
a few minutes gave those assembled a
very nice talk on the betterment of
farming and, dairying, commencing
the dairymen assembled for the excel
lent start they had made and urging
them on to better and larger things
along these lines. Mr.. Taft is full of
geniality, and coupling this with his
big mind he is able to interest all who
hear him. The main address of the
evening was given by D. D. Aitken,
president of the National Holstein-
Freisian Association of America. Mr..
Aitken is and has been one of the
largest greeders of Holsteins in the
country and he is we'll up in stock
raising and what he tells the breeders
in regard to going into pure bred stock
is given from experience and careful
study. He has tried scrubs, grades
and pure bred cattle and he has be-
come convinced that the latter is the
best. He said that if you can get bet
ter returns from twenty pure bred
Holstein COWS than from thirty at less
both in feed and in the taking
care Of the animals common sense
teaches you that it would pay to get
the pure breds-and he is right. A
scrub eats just as much, requires look
ing after just as much, but does not
give back the returns that real pure
bred animal does. He spoke earnestly
for our farmers to centralize their
stock raising. If any community ran
to Holsteins, let that neighborhood
on Holsteins, but get the
pure bred stock-it pays. He claimed

Joe Didier is one of the Barnes
county farmers that is going into pure
bred stock, his choice being Short
horns. Yesterday he was down to
Grandin, N. D., to a Shorthorn sale
being put on by B. W. Aylor, and at
this sale Mr.. Didier purchased cow
and calf for the modest sum of s1150.
The cow is named Clear Spring Susan
619662, and is Of fine strain, being
a pure bred animal. Mr.. Didier also
bid up to Sd 900 on bull but was out
bid. His recent purchase will be fine
acquisition to his herd. It shows that
he is going into this stock business
right and that he is a progressive
stock man. It pays to buy the best
and that is just the way Mr.. Didier
looks at it.

tween the two great parties in the
matter of the treaty and the reserva-
lions were not of much moment or i'm
port, in fact there was very little in
common after he had sifted the whole
matter through. He is great advo-
cate of disarmament and believes we
can find a more christian method of
arriving at settlement of disputes
between nations than by going to war.
He scored President Wilson for his ar
bitrary manner in rejecting the treaty
with reservations and felt that the
president was asserting the big 'T'
instead of the best interests of the
country. Mr.. Taft thought that mas
much as the other nations interested
were willing to accept the reserva-
tions as offered by the senate Mr..
Wilson should have been big enough
and broad minded to have made some
concessions and thus by so doing have
settled the question Of war between
the United States and Germany and
thus by so doing opened up the ave-
nues of business with all the nations
of the world and set the machinery in
motion for the upbuilding Of these
countries by regular trade relations
that would bring about settled condi-
tions in the world. His address was
not one of flowery eloquence, but it
was a masterful and convincing argu-
ment in favor of the peace of the
world. He is in favor of a league Of
nations and is willing to accept a
treaty with reservations. He thinks
that we should belong to the league
and that it is the only real solution in
the way of settling those great differ
ences that from time to time arise
among the nations Of the earth-set-
tie them by competent court of arbi-
tration. Mr.. Taft is a real pacifst
and his whole bearing and manner
would easily lead a person to believe
that he is. His manner and bearing
substantiates this is his big physique,
splendid disposition and sunny smile
Immediately warns one to this big
eX-president. We are mighty glad to
have been able to listen to such a
good explanation of the various ang-
les of the peace treaty which have
been matter of great concern to the
nation for so long, and which might
have been easily settled many months
ago had President Wilson exercised a
little self denial in the matter of
waving some of his ideas and have
approved the treaty with the reserva-
tons as adopted by the majority of
the senate. One word from Mr.. Will
son to the effect that he would have
accepted mild reservations would have
brought peace and restored relations |
with Germany and all the nations of
tn world on peace basis. While we
are really at peace on account of the
and there is on danger of
any further war with Germany, yet
we are still at war with that country
because the peace treaty has not been
signed by the United States govern
ment.

States Attorney L. S. B. Richie
has made the county a very good
prosecuting attorney. We have re-
Trained from taking any part in the
county campaign but we think it
would not be out of place to call the
attention Of the voters to the fact
that Mr.. Richie has done efficient SER
vice for the people and is entitled to
a reelection to that Office. If efficient
and faithful service counts for any
thing at all, then Mr.. Richie is en-
titled to your vote tomorrow at the
polls. Put an (X) after the name of
L. S. B. Richie for states attorney
and show your appreciation of good
work and faithful service.
