TOWMEYlSM
BAD MEDICINE
FOR HATT0N
District Embarrassed
Financially; Badly Ham !
pered by State Regime. :,

Hatton,1. N. D., June 1S.-The poo
pie o. fHat.on and vicinity are be-
ginning to get a taste of the new day
from league legislation. In
spite of tho fact that the district is
one Of the richest in h county. it
s(inds that It has no money with
which to pay the added expense fnA
connection with the school.
Tine was in North Dakota when
each school district was its own boss,
levied its own taxes. made its own
debts and paid its debts. Now.
however, with the Townley gangs
state Socialism creeping In and
sof the local school officers, many
school districts are finding u what
q strange thing tits not to be their,
own bosses, but to have to go to
Townleys Prussian guard at Bismarck,
and ask leave.
Hastpn Embarrassed.
Take for instance the school dis
trist OF Hatton, Trail county. n of
the richest, most progressive and
most public-spirited school districts
in the state. For years and years
as outstanding warrants, that is to be
running i'll debt for current expenses.
Under the operation of the tax laws
written for this Estate by a Socialist
crank from Utah, Prof, Roylance,
THE Hatton school district is being
forced into debt Schools, unless run
according to the Totten-Stangeland
plan, are. not considered friendly in
situations by Socialists nor any other
kind of government tyrants. Schools
are ALWAYS dangerous to tyrants un-
less they are carefully regulated and
u >from headquarters. Hence the
new tax laws provided only a 20 per
cent increase in school taxes for 1919.
The fact that everything. fuel. equip
ment and wages Of teachers were
climbing 50 to a 100 per cent cut no
figure with this Socialist gang. They
were entirely too busy devising ways
and means to short circuit Minnie
Nelson and put George Totten in full
control of the schools, to pay atten-
ton to the needs of common school
districts. Hatton's schools are grow
ing and the board had the double
increase or rise in prices and increase
in equipment to meet. But Roylance
had tied their hands and now Hatton
for the first time in thirty years is
compelled to borrow on its outstand-
ing warrants
State Bank Won't Help.
Before the close of the next school
year Hatton will nave between seven
to ten thousand of its paper on the
market. In the state bank. you say
No sir! Hatton's credit IL no good
at Bismarck! Not only will not the

WISCONSIN TO HAVE
GREAT HAY CROP

Ashland, Wis, June 1S.-The north
Wisconsin hay crop will rank from
80 to 100 per cent, based on condition
Of the crop in Ashland county and in
the vicinity of Ashland. Winter wheat
was killed to a small extent in some
places but it will be 80 per cent yield,
as it now looks. Spring rye looks
good. Timely rains averaging every
five Or six days, have given prospects
Of crops above the normal. The po-
tato acreage may not quite reach the
high price Of seed. County Agent
Wright, VINO gives these figures. be-
lieves that north Wisconsin crops
will probably be- considerably above
the average of the state. The dry
weather, reported in some southern
counties, has not been felt anywhere
in the northern part Of wisconsin.
