AMERICAN COMMISSIONER

saving about 100000 crowns to
Americans who recently opened ac-

The Hungarian government issued
stamping of notes of the Austro-I Hun
sarian Bank circulating In Hungary
TO relieve its financial embarrassment
and ordered one-half of the money
presented for stamping to be with
held and converted into n compulsory
state loan. Some of the bankers saw
a good opportunity of loading their
their American clients.
Although the Americans had only
current ar drawing accounts some OF
the bankers OF Budapest attempted
TO treat them as actual money de-
posts. pass of their ready money
stamped and write letter 10 their
clients stating hcnceforth they could
only dispose of onc-half of their de-
post. AS for the other half the de-
pos!tors were in several cases noti-
fed they had participated In n COM
pulsory Hungarian state loan the
bonds OF which are nontransfcrablc
and nonneEotiable. but valid for the
payment OF taxes
The scheme was frustrated by the
Intervention of Mr.. Grant-Smith who
made representations to the Hungar-
ian government that no money trans
action OF the government could in
the United states. AS the rightfui-
ness of this principle was acknowl-
edge by the Hungarian government

Last week Bro. Lee Of the Advocate
Informed his readers that a complete
stereotyping outfit had been ordered
and that now the Advocate claimed to
have the best equipped office in Bot
tineau county. Probably Lee was right
last week when he made the statement
but this week The Courant has in
stalled a new office chair and a dozen
pen points and we claim to have again
slid the Advocate into second place
when it comes to shop equipment. Mr..
Lee says The American Press, from
whom the stereotyping outfit was pur-
chased, is not represented by one Lea
que paper in North Dakota but he did
not say that whether IN office was a
League supporter or not they could
buy all these 2x4 stereotyping outfits
they wanted at $4,000 apiece.

The Advocates comeback to The

c%ontempory had juggled the vote fig

this. "Whoever writes the little eli
torial matter contained in the social

appear at the head of the column, etc.
A clean fight is impossible
with such puppets as run the social
list organ" Lees name appears at
the head Of the Advocate but Falken-
stein furnishes the "heavy matter" 80
in this instance The Courant has some
thing IN the Advocate-we know who

don't know where we get ours.

Hatfield, the Rainmaker, probably
is on the lips Of more people in Bot
tienau County at the present time
than any other one individual. G. T.
Hidden of Deep was in Bottineau last
week and informed The Courant that
he personally had seen Hatfield work
and knows that he produces rain. Mr..
Hidden further stated that about the
only thing he could say against Hat
field was that he could not stop the
rain just when he wanted to. How
ever, a prominent local professional
man thinks this rain-making PROPOSE
ton a complete fake, and according to
his opinion should Hatfield come here
next year and Bottineau county get
the rain wanted, ven at that Hatfield
would be a fake and would get some
thing like $4,000 for nothing. What
do you think about It?

"CUTTING OFF THEIR NOSES"

What creature is more absurd than
the man who gets peeved at his own
face because of some feature that dis
pleases him, then, going to a mirror,
pulls out his razor and cuts off his
nose? This practice is donominated
"cutting off your nose to spite your
face"
Ridiculous as it may seem, neverthe
less this is exactly what business in
a number of North Dakota towns did
at the recent election when they de-
feated some twenty farmer-owned
newspapers for official publications.
For instances:
In Pembina county the business ele-
ment threw it's support to the Pio-
neer-Express in the town of Penn
bina, defeating the farmer owned Cav
alier Chronicle at Cavalier, the coun-
ty seat. AS a town Pen,blna has been
retrogressing for several years, while
Cavalier is steadily growing in popu-
lation. Rather than aid the farmers
short-sighted business men of Penn
bina county turned the county job
work over to a newspaper printed in
a town scarcely beyond a village in
size.
In Nelson county the farmer-owned
Observer published at Lakota is gen
orally recognized as the leading pa
per. It is printed at the county seat
and the plant is more centrally-located
than any other one in the county. Not
withstanding these favorable circum-
stances, however, the Nelson county
town people supported a small I. V.
A. publication at Petersburg.
In Sargent county the Cogswell
Chatter Box, Weekly Blabber or Tat
tletale discover the "animal s name,
if you can, and you'll have better luck
than us) was chosen in preference to
the seven-column, e~ight-page Sargent
News printed at Forman, the county
seat and owned by several hundred
substantial farmers.
Thirty league papers in all were re-
elected and twenty-five, the majority
of which are published in county seat
towns, met defeat. Community spirit
has about reached the vanishing point
in North Dakota when business men
will "cut off their noses to spite their
faces" in this manner.

EXCUSE FOR ARISTOCRACY

We hear much nowadays of the ire
sp~onsibility" of the Farmers and the
Workers for the worldwide economic
breakdown, but, as they r not yet
the ruling class, they cannot be just
ly held responsible for the general
welfare Of society.
It is they who are given, or who
assume, the powers of Government
or administration who are responsible
for that welfare, and it is right and
just that the race is calling on this
class to render an accounting Of it's
rulership.
For this, that it serves the COM
mon good, is the only excuse that can
be given for the existence Of an ar
%istocracy; and when the members Of
an .aristocracy refuse to 50 function,
or are incapable Of so doing, it is the
right and the duty of the people to
depose them, to take from their their
powers and privileges and to invest
these functions in new executives; for
these social powers and privileges are
granted to IN a~ristocracy, or it's as
sumption of them is suffered, only on
the understanding that it's members
administer society for the general wei
fare.
Since, then, the old a%ristocracy has,
once more, failed to promote the COM
mon good, it is again up to the peo-
pie to save themselves, and this they
can do in but one wav-thru the es-
Establishment of industrial democracy.
