X AND X

One by one and two by two, like the
elephant and the donkeroo, the states
that have been held up to the people
of North Dakota as taxation models
by the FLUTES and Poison Twas have
taken the count and gone where the
whangdoodle mourneth for it's young
and the grain gamblers graft no more.
First model Montana kicked the
bucket and then South Dakota gave
up the ghost, and then Minnesota went
wrong, and now Washington busts the
film and scraps the comedy, as wit
ness this letter from w. C. Jones to
the editor Of the Spokesman-Review
Of Spokane, Washington: Thus writes
Mr.. Jones:
Statistics disclose the following
square niles; Washington, 69,127 50.
miles. Population 1919: North Dako-
to, 817,554; Washington, 1,723, 757.
Per capita tax 1918: North Dakota
1886; Washington, $6.A2.
Will some nj please explain why,
with q smaller area and more than
twice as many people, the per capita
tax 81 Washington should be nearly
twice ID great as that Of North Da-
kota e. Ia justice to the model tax
states, however, and the League hay-

az" FOR WAS

Democracy" according to the lat
S tohews from Ivaopolis, consists, not
in social principles, but in the multi
plication of committees. So they have
decided to increase the COMMITTEE Of
Fl" to the committee of AZ" but the
mere multiplication of bankers. law
yers, grain gamblers and railroad lob
byists does not necessarily mean that
the triple alliance Of standpat repub-
licans, copperhead democrats and self
styled independents who constitute the
1. V. A. are any more democratic than
they were before. Sprinkling limburg-
er cheeses with altar does not turn
them to American beauty roses.
But regardless Of this important
fact that cheeses is cheeses and roses
is roses, no matter how you sprinkle
them Or change their names, the num-
Der AZ" is to say the least, an un-
fortunate number for the new bunch
Of commissars, for It is apt to remind
the farmers too strongly Of that 9th
er famous bunch Of Iva saboters-
the AZ" Taxpayers whose suit kept
81, O0O,O0O's worth Of credit out Of

HELPS BREAK
STEAL RING

- .#@. ..
With the donation of a double-page
advertisement to the Bank of North
Dakota as aid toward selling the gilt
edged bonds of our commonwealth,
THE NATION of New York City
proves once more it's right to be
classed as the greatest and most fear
less liberal magazine in the United
States. Nor does The Nation stop with
tn advertisement alone. On it's front
page and in a fighting editorial it
calls upon the liberals thruout the
country to make good their fai III by
getting behind the campaign to sell
the bonds of North Dakota and to sell
them in spite Of all the Plutocracy AMI
it's henchmen can do to prevent it.
Well and finely has Oswald CARR
son Willard upheld the libertarian
principles handed down to him by his
fighting grandfather William Lloyd
Garrison, and the support and good
will of one such man is worth more
to the farmers and workers of North
Dakota in their struggle for Indus
trial Democracy more than the "ehar-
ity" Of all the 10000 Plutocrats in the
United States and all the servile pol
iticians and judges at their command.
Up and at them, boys! We have
broken thru the Steal Ring at last,
and at last the Iron Legion Of the
League has begun the final march
from the Valley Forge Of economic
servitude to the Yorktown of Indus
trial Democracy!

RAISES $4,000

Last Saturday evening a basket So
cial was held in School No. S Star
buck township for the purpose Of rails
ing campaign funds for the Nonparti-
san League. The net proceeds from
the social being $4,000.
In spite of inclement weather and
muddy roads a good crowd of Nom
partisan boosters turned out and an
enjoyable evening was spent.
This shows that I. v. "A. tactics
have not had the desired result in
Starbnck township but have made the
people more determined than ever to
fight for a just cause and since the
opposition is not sparing time nor
money to fight us the League members
of Starbuck are determined to raise
their quota of $4,000 for the cause.

"MY DEAR YOUNG"

Letters Of statesmen, especially

their exit from the service of the
state to the reward Of the corpora
tions, tho seemingly ancient history
often illuminate the purposes behind

My dear Young:
I am herewith enclosing you a let
ter which I wrote today to Mr.. Bum.
AS I suggested to him, I do not just
see how I can be ready to properly
present this case before the middle
of October. However, I will do the best
I can at any date you fix upon. .
l understand the Standard Oil Peo-
pie have virtually decided to inaugur-
ate a new tax department some time
the first of the year. I wonder if you
could ascertain definitely their inten-
lions. Would you suggest that I make
formal application to the manager for
the position and present my reference
or had I better let the matter drift
until they call for them? I will be
governed by your advice.
Sincerely yours.

to do is to sign the recall petitions and
vote a majority against Frazier, Ha-

question now apparently is as to how
long the senator's will take to debate
the measure. The administration is
earnestly in favor Of enacting the bill
into law at the earliest possible mo-
mert.
The Senate Immediately took up for
consideration the Treaty with the Re-
public Of Colombia which was ratified
April goth by a vote Of 50 to 10. With
out entering into The question Of the
rights and wrongs incident to the Sc
,cession Of Panama from Colombia in
November 1908, there seems to be a
feeling of relief on the part Of the
public that an unhappy incident in our
relations with a sister Republic is
definitely and finally closed. During
the debate on the Treaty there were
many charges and counter-charges
made, the assertion or contradiction Of
which can never be fully sustained.
The story behind the long drawn-out
controversy would take. too much
space to relate. The determining fac
tor with many Of the members seemed
to be the fact that our own people re-
CARELESS Of political affiliations were
divided on the subject and the further
fact that all the Latin-American Re-
publics felt that Colombia was entitled
to compensation in some way for the
loss sustained. By doing the generous
thing America has enhanced her pres
tige and repute with our neighbors in
the South. We have cast our bread up
on the waters and let Vi hope that
after many days it will return to us.
Other bills that will come up for
consideration in subsequent articles
are Sales Tax, immigration Legisla-
ton, the Railroad Situation and the
Budget bill. In the mean time if my
readers desire to know the progress Of
any nov pending in Congress
/ shall be glad to keep them posted as
to the status of the same. In inquiry
by letter or message giving the num-
Der, title or the name Of the member
who introduced the bill will receive my
prompt attention.
The writer has received many invi-
.tations to attend functions Of one kind
or another and is always assured in
every case of a most cordial reception.
These invitations come from all parts
of the country, representing the diff
ferent interests of human activity. He
is not vain enough to attribute such
but rather to the desire of he general
to know the real inwardness of
the North Dakota Economic program.
In the nature Of things but few of
these invitations can be accepted be-
cause Congress has entered upon a
busy period and those charged with
the public business must attend to it.
When a public servant crosses the
of political controversy with
its trail Of strife and animosity on
day, he becomes the repre-

We cannot, Of course, all be hand

And it's hard for us all to be

We are sure now and then to be

And we don't always do as we

To be patient is not always easy,
r To be cheerful is much harder
still,
But at least we can always be pleas

If we make up our minds that we
will.
And it pays every time to be kindly.

If you smile at the world and look
cheerful,

But you Danish your friends when

Justice for Fat Men

Fat men are considered the best
risks by the surety companies. This
comes as an echo from a convention
at Atlantic City, where all business
men go to reveal the secrets of their
success. A fat man enjoys life and
does not seek fortune through the
robbery of his employer. A 200
pound cashier is to a surety com
pany a thing of beauty and a JOY
forever.
Now for justice in this matter. We
have never heard of surety COM
pany reducing the rate on a mans
bond because the man was fat. On
the other hand, when the fat trusted
employee goes to the life insurance
company to get policy he is often
told that on account of his over
weight he must pay an extra pre-
MUM. The life insurance people do
not count the fat mars honesty at
all. Overweight, he is bad risk that
must be penalized until the fairness is
corrected.
There is a subject worthy of the
most morose Russian novelist; the
fat and honest, man of small salary
reducing his weight in order that
he may protect his family with life
insurance and thus reducing his hon.
esty, or the evidence thereof, so
much that in the end he loses his
job through theft or the refusal of
a surety company to bond him. With
muffled cry he throws himself over
the parapet Of a bridge across the
Vodka River; a parapet which in his
old happy state of extreme fairness
he never could have surmounted.
