FREE THE SULTAN"
Is CAN in Proclamation Issued BY Com
mandant at Adrianople.

Constantinople, April % by the As
sociated Press All Mohammedans
are called upon to unite in movement
to free the sultan from allied infiu-
ence" in a proclamation issued by Col
onel Jafar Tayar, commandant at
AdrianopIe, on April 10
I'VE are not fighting against the
sultan, but against his jailers," the
proclamation declared. "The world
knows Thrace is Turkish and Moslem.
We have never broken bonds with the
sultan, whom we regard as the SUI
prcme chief, but the example Of Smyr-
IA is before our eyes. We know the
Crpeks murdered our brothers and
ruined Turkish villages, and we know
thu same fate awaits us at the hands
oi the Greeks if we are unprepared to
4 lend ourselves.
The nationalist movement grew out
4 the atrocities inflicted on the Turks
lv the Greeks and when the latter oc-
fed Smyrna, and the same enemies
about to attack Thraee."
fhe attitude of Colonel Jafar Tayar
tJWard the sultan is evidently different
som that of Mustapha Renal, who
dsclaimed any allegiance to Con
.ntinople

We would call the attention of our
readers to the fact that the ballot for
county, school and judicial offices is
entitled "NON PARTISAN BALLOT.
Some voters have understood this to
mean that it contained only names of
candidates favorable to the Nonpar-
tisan League. This is Of course a
mistake. The words "Non Parti-
san" used at the head of that ballot
have very different meaning than
when they are used in connection with
the league. We now elect all our
county, school and judicial officers
without regard to political party, and
the names of all the candidates for
these offices are placed on one bal
lot, called the Non Partisan Ballot
On this ballot you will find the names
of Minnie J. Nelson and the other
candidates for county, school, and ju-
dicial offices opposed to the league
as we'll as of the league candidates.

torneys maintained that the three
column ballot, containing the indi-
vdual nominations of the socialist
electors and five individual nomina-
ton of Nonpartisan league candida
tes for state offices, nominated at
the republican primary" was illegal
while hohing that the column ballot
which gives republican, democratic
and individual nominations columns
was legal.
The court held that the name of
Eugene V. Debs socialist candidate
for the presidency, should not appear
with the socialists elector candidates
because the socialists had lost their
party standing in North Dakota.

LARGE SALARIES

Some pretty large salaries, and a
good many of them, have been paid
by the State of North Dakota in the.
last two years under Nonpartisan
rule. Many new positions have been,
created. We have no kick against the
new positions or the salaries if the
work was needed, and il the officials
earned their money. But we think
our readers will agree with US that
there is no use throwing the tax
payers money around, and that salar-
les larger than those paid to high
state officials need to be explained
and defended. Here are some Of
them:
Director General, Bank of North
Dakota, 100000; Manager, Bank Of
North Dakota, $5,0OO.O0. why two
men for what looks like the same
work?)
Deputy on Credits, Bank of North
Dakota, 100000; Deputy Director,
Farm Loan Department., Bank of
North Dakota, $3,OOa00. (Quite a
few high priced depuies.)
Manager, Mill and Elevator Asso-
citation, $5,00000.
Secretary, Industrial Commission,
So 100000.
Manager, Home Building Associa-
ton, $5,OO0.0O; Assistant Manager
Home Building Association, $4,000
These two men have been doing next
to nothing except keep the office OPP
en-, because no home building homes
have been made.)
These offices, and many more, are
new ones created by the last legis-
lature. There are many clerks in the
different department. To the aver
age North Dakotan, these look like
pretty big sums. No elective state
official receives more than $5,5OO.OO
and none but the governor and the
Judges of the supreme court receive
as much as $5,OO0.O0. We do moi
say that all these new officials are
not earning their money, but we dc
think the situation is worth thinking
over and looking into.

THE direstor of the ninth Federal

ton of the amounts expended for lux
uries, a greater part Of which people
would have been happier and better
OFF without. While a portion Of the
following list might perhaps not be
classed wholly in the luxury class, the
figures are amazing, and will serve
to show us how some Of our individual
expenses, small in themselves amount
to a startiing sum in the aggregate.
and may be cut down with little self
sacrifice or discomfort TO ourselves.
The report says:
We are firmly convinced that in mos
parts Of the Ninth District. the GREAT
OF extravaganza from which we
have suffered q kr1rlt aince the ARM
istice has practically passed. I do not
