War Caused Profiteers

The tribe of profiteers has simply
multiplied under the favorable cir
cumstances Of war, Fol years, large
contributions have beer made to the
Republican campaign fund for no
purpose except to buy a government
underhold, and to make illegal profits
as the result of preference. SUCH
largesses are today a greater menace
TO our %contentment n our institn-
tons than the countless temporary
profiteers who are making a mockery
of honest business, but who can i've

prices. If ] am called to service as

Republican Campaign Funds

There is another reason for the
fabulous contributions to the present
Republican campaign fund. Much
money. of course has been subscribed
in proper partisan zeal, but the great
bulk has been given with the def
mite idea of regaining service in re.
turn. Many captains Of industry, guild

philosophy, believe that in contro-

take action.
The Ward county officials have ask
ed the federal prohibition officers to
assist in breaking up the whiskey
traffic. The local officers cannot
work outside the boundaries of Ward
county and they have explained to
the federal government that effective
work can be accomplished by patrol
ling the border. This is exactly what
is now being done. Minot is 50

1t has been suggested by one Of
the county's most consistent sports
men, that Ward county would do we'll
to establish "a game preserve or more
than one for that matter If it is
not feasible for the county to form
such preserve, then the state should
most certainly do so. 1t would be
we'll for several Of these preserves to
be established in each county by the
state or the counties. The land that
would make the best preserves is ,hiily
and is usually not the very best for
farming. The land could be leased
by the state if desired for ranging
stock, so in reality this land would not
be waste in any sense of the word.
The time is coming and not so far
away either, when duck and goose
hunting will be a thing of the past
unless these preserves are establish
ed. 1t would cost but a compare
lively small sum to buy section of
this billy land in various parts of the
county. Chinese pheasants and other
game birds could be- propogated at
these preserves with very little ex-
pense. This plan is subject to modi-
fication. What say you?

GIVE THEM PROPER CREDIT

A local weekly newspaper published
in this city, recently commented edi-
torially on the raid made in this city
by the federal prohibition officers, in
an attempt to belittle the work which
has already been done by Sheriff SEQ
field and States Attorney Herigstad.
The comment was made for the poll.
teal effect which it might have and
was unfair to these officials.
The Independent has always been
disposed to be fair to everybody, 20
we took the trouble to look up some
facts and here they are. The Of
fetal records will substantiate US in
what we are about to say.
The federal prohibition officers in
their recent raid, caused eight arrests
and seized approximately 173 quarts
of whiskey. There were "a officers
working. They were somewhat dis
appointed as they expected to find
considerable more whiskey in this city
and undoubtedly there was good
deal more in or near Minot, but, so
cleverly cached that it could not be
found.
The federal prohibition officers were
accompanied on their raid by Mr..
Watkins, state enforcement man work.
ing with Attorney General VIM. E.
LANCER. Watkins was here several
days prior to the raid and during the
raid. Watkins gave the federal Of
icers the description Of each place to
be raided, and this information was
furnished to Watkins by none other
than o. B. Herigstad, States Attor-
ney of Ward county, himself.
It can therefore be said without
fear of contradiction, that States At
torney Herigstad thru Attorney Cen
eral Langer's Assistant, Watkins, has
been working hand in hand with the
federal porhibition officers.
Here are some facts that will prove
that Sheriff Scofield and our States
Attorney have been working in con-
junction with the federal officers.
Since the first of the year, thru
the efforts Of the sheriff and States
Attorney, twelve whiskey vendors
have been arrsted and total Of 1916
quarts Of whiskey seized, most Of
which has been turned over to the
federal authorities. The local officers
have seized number of automobiles,
wagons and horses which have been
turned over to the federal govern

OUR LOWER" TAX

1t does not seem possible that any
voter can be fooled with the claims
of lower tax rates in North Dakota
under the Nonpartisan league admin
istration, yet constant repetition of
half truth or an untruth may cause
some to believe it, if it is not re-
peatedly explained or denied.
The state levy this year for all pur-
poses is 19 mills. 1t is true that
this figure is lower than the levy a
year ago, but is is made on greatly
increased valuation and no reference
is made by the Nonpartisan league
papers, to the other taxes collected
this year, such as the income tax,
the state oil tax, and the stock and
bond tax.
The real test of taxes is the amount
raised, and according to the figures
of F. e. Packard, former member
of the state tax commission and one
of the best informed men on tax mat
tiers in North Dakota, the state levies
for the last five years have been as
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1920-10-07

If the 1920 levy were collected on
the old valuation, the rate would be
approximately 9 mills, according to
Mr.. Packard.
If the present administration can
get satisfaction out of those figures
they are welcome to it.

Former Ambassador to Germany,
James Gerard, who is in charge Of the
democratic national campaign fund,
testifying in the senatorial inquiry,
stated that the democrats had placed
no limit on the amount Of individual
subscriptions and altho he hoped to
raise a two million dollar fund, to
date only $4,000 had been collected.
After. all, it now leaks out that mr..
Cox had no grounds for making his

According to Mark Sullivan, noted
political writer, republicans now have
the best of the fight, with election
only four weeks away. They would
win hands down were the election to
be held tomorrow, but the republican
leaders are fearful lest some foolhar..
dy thing, like the unfortunate trip OF
Hughes thru California, might occur.
The democrats concede that the re-
publicans have a decided advantage
now, but are looking for loop hole.
They realize that if there is to be any
change at all, it must be for the bet
ter as far as they are concerned.
-Four years ago, the democrats won
the election during the last three
weeks Of the campaign.

NEW YORK, May 2O.-Another i'm pressive selling movement took place on the stock eycnange today, the bulk of the enlarged dealings, accord ing to popular opinion, agaIn repre- sentinS involuntary liquidation result ing from the increased tightening of credits.
 Aside from this development, which was strengthened by adyices from all sections of the country. indicating an extension of the campaign against high commodity prices, there was no specific events in explanation of the further reaction.
 Standard shares suffered in equal measure with speculative isues, testi- flying to the inSistent nature of the offerings. These were again traceable in large part to out of town sources, mainly western and southwestern cen ters, although New England also was reported as a heavy seller of copper.
 In the final hour, fuu0wIng anoIner dip in prices to the days lowest levels, spirited rally set in, oils and sugars leading at extreme gains of two to seven points. Steels. equipments, motors also were carried upward by the rebound, which efaced many of the more extensive losses of the ses- sion and contributed largely to the all most steady close. Sales totaled l. $50 ,000 shares.
 Plenty of call money was available at six per cent after the usual opening quotation of seven but brokers re- ported no change in the long prevail ing stringency of time money, all loans of that character being limited to renewals.
 The weekly statment of the Bank of England failed to confirm recent rumors of further gold exports from London nor was there anything in the local sterling rate to bear out such reports. The only noteworthy change in foreign remittanCeS was the further strength of German exchange. | Liberty bonds kept pace with the stock market, rallying briskly iron i their new low records, but the genera l bond list was heavy Total sales. pal | value. aggregated $31,750,00O OlC | United States two's lost one quarter and the As three quarter per cent or
