solidated and unnecessary help dis
charged. There are altogether too
many clerks in the departments ere
ated by the nonpartisan league lead
ers that can very well be done away
with. The main thing for this legis-
lature to keep in mind is the neces-
sity for providing amply for the insti-
tutions we now have. These institu-
tionse need more buildings and equip
ment and it is better to provide for
them than to create more bureaus and
commissions than are needed. The
people demand economy in state af-
fairs and if there is any possible way
to get it through retrenchment along
reasonable lines they should have it..
The trouble in the past four years has
been that the leaders have been too
busy creating new commissions and
bureaus to create places to be filled
with socialists than to give the people
a square deal and the consequence is
that the state has been taxed to death
to meet the demands occasioned by
these new IDEAS During the Hanna
administration which was prior to the
Frazier regime, it took one million dol
lars to run the state and we thought
that was lot. Now under this new
day idea it takes four million dollars
instead of one and Of course the peo-
pie have to be taxed accordingly to
pay the bill. We need money to prop
erly look after the institutions we now
have but we have got to, pare down to
the limit all of them. @:f.

asking advances were too high. 1t al
so made the passenger traffic stand
some Of the increase, instead Of al
lowing all of it to be saddled upon the
freight traffic, much Of which the
farmer pays for. It defeated the No
Ian bill, which would have put a heavy
tax on real estate in excess of $4,000
valuation.
It's latest effort is the outlining Of a
method by which the American farm
er can sell his wheat on market that
will insure him fair return on his in
vestment and labor. This method Is
being formulated by the Committee OF
Seventeen, which is expected to make
a report soon. A similar committee
will work out the livestock selling
problem.
The federation is now conducting a
referendum on the selection Of sec
rotary Of agriculture for the next cab

will have big influence in helping

EDNA TOWNSHIP
GOES OVER TOP

A meeting of the solicitors in the
Barnes County Farm Bureau was held
yesterday. Because Of the disagree
able weather, only about IS were pres
ent. Those present, however, report
ed splendid enthusiasm among the
farmers of the county for the bureau.
Edna township, Harry Green and
Howard Wilson solicitors, reported
nearly 100 percent membership. Out
of thirty-six farmers in that township,
81 joined the bureau. Reports from
Getchell township indicate that it will
go nearly 100 per cent in membership
for the bureau.
County Agent. T: x. Calnan esti-
mated this morning that the county
would 60 between eighty and eighty
five per cent for the bureau. These
figures may be changed, however
when solicitors start in earnest in the
south half of the county. The north
half is being worked and these figures
are based on the returns from that
portion of the county.
The campaign is being organized in
the others. Officers of the County
Farm Bureau expect 1,5OO members
for the bureau, by. the time the drive
is completed.

Bureaus are affiliated, has been or

incurred with the knowledge and con-
sent of the Joint Campaign Commit

many independent voters who can az
ford to contribute 81 and who have not
vet done so. We have, therefore, con-
cluded to ask the public press to give
publicity to this appeal from US, to
the independent voters to make an ef-
fort to get enough money into the
hands Of the Joint Treasurer, Mr.. R. S.
Lewis, Fargo, North Dakota by De-
cenber 22nd to clean up the entire
campaign deficit. If you have not
sent in your own dollar, will you kind
ly do so at once? If you have sent it,
will you not take it upon yourself to
find five men or women who have not
yet sent their dollar: and get them to
give you their dollar and you send
the IS so collected to Mr.. r. S. Lewis.
Do it at once, not tomorrow or next

come in than is needed, it will be used

There is lots of noise, about this
whiskey running business and that the
officials are not trying to put a stop to
it. A great deal of the trouble either
lays with the law governing the pros
ecution of these cases or with the
Judges. When you see the judges
fining a whiskey runner $50 for this
crime it is a joke. What does one of
these NOTORIOUS law breakers care
about small fine like that. 1t is only
the price of two quarts of the stuff
we never bought any but we are told
that this is the price. If the courts were
given the power fine of from $1,000 to
$1,000 should be imposed and then
there would be slackening up of the
traffic. So long as they get off with
a measley fine and few days in the

Increases in intrastate freight, pas
senger, Pullman, milk and cream rates
as authorized by the I. C. C. and asked
for by railroads operating in North
Dakota, were denied by the state rail-
road commission late today. The state
commission held that, the rates applied
for "are unjust and would work an
irreparable damage upon the shippers
and producers of North Dakota by rea-
son of the fact that twas conclusively
Shown that the railroads are now earn
ing more than six per cent on their in
vestment." Doubt as to whether the
I. C. C. has authority to assume juris-
diction over railroads in this state in
view of an act fixing maximum freight
rates, was expressed by the state COM
mission. Attorneys for the railroads
announced that the matter would be
taken before the interstate commerce
commission. The railroads had applied
for the same increases in interstate
rates as were granted by the inter-
state commerce commission for inter-
state rates in this territory. The ques
ton of the increase has been fought
since the first hearing last summer
when the commission granted the in
crease. The state supreme court re-
strained the increases on the ground
that they were illegally adopted. by
the commission. The commission re-
adopted the order of the increase and
the supreme court gave new injunc-
ton and ordered a new hearing. At
the conclusion of the hearing today the
commission denied the increase.
