THE 0RTY-T
TAXPAYERS SUIT

During the last year or more there
has been much discussion and mis-
understanding of the so-called forty
two taxpayers law suit. A desperate
effort has been made to fasten upon
the i%nstigators and participants in the
forty-two taxpayers law suit sinister
motives, therefore in connection with
that case it is we'll to remember that
under the American form Of govern
ment every citizen who thinks that
he is being wronged by his fellow-men
shall have an opportunity to present
his grievances in a court and to have
the court determine whether or not
the laws under which he claims to be
suffering an injustice are the ex-
pressed will Of the people.
If the courts from the lowest to
the highest find that what is COM
planned Of as injustice is permitted
by the laws in question, then the
plaintiff must either abide by the de-
cisions of the courts or go and make
an effort to convince his fellowmen
that the laws in themselves are fun
%damenta]ly wrong.
In North Dakota there are many
people who sincerely believe that the
economic program embarked on under
the auspices and leadership of the
~Nonpartisan league is going to de-
prive many citizens Of rights that are
guaranteed them by the state and
federal constitutions. Being honest in
this belief it must be conceded that
they have a right to 60 to the courts
ana ask them to construe the laws
in their. favor or against them. Act
ing on this basis forty-two taxpayers
OF North Dakota united in a suit to
test the cOnstitutionality of certain
phases Of the so-called league legisla-
ton. The Supreme court Of the
United States has held that there was
no infringement m the rights of the
taxpayers under the constitution of the
United States in the specific manner
that was pointed out by the forty-two
taxpayers. Therefore whether or not
the laws in question work an injustice
on any number of people in the state
or not in the manner that was com
planned OF must o be settled by the
people Of North Dakota as q 10.

be compelled to go into the banking

Let it be clearly understood that
the supreme court Of the United

that the economic program which
North Dakota has embarked on is a
good thing either for North Dakota or
It's people, or for the United States.
What it has said is in substance that
if we, the people of North Dakota,
want to experiment with all of the
dreams of the shiftless and thriftless
that have been proposed in our state,
that is our privilege, and, of course,
every state in the union will profit by
our experience. The experimenting
will have to be carried on at the ex-
pense of the thrifty and industrious
citizens who believe in the right of
the individual to progress and prosper
according to his own diligence, merit
and capacity. 1t is up to the voters
of our state to say how far and fast
we shall go in the operating and de-
