GOVERNOR NESTOs' PROMISES

GOVERNOR NESTOS' PROMISES
Governor r. A. Nestos has been
inaugurated and it will not take long
for him to begin to accomplish things.
True, he cannot be expected to undo
all the harm that has been done in
the short year that he has to serve,
but if let alone, with the assistance
of capable honest helpers, much can be
done.
First of all, there are certain prom
ses that he made to the people be-
fore election. Thousands voted for
him on the strength Of the promises
that he made. The state has been
staggering under the weight of an
army of incompetent, extravagant en-
ployes and the Governor is expected to
trim expenses Immediately. This will
be one thing that the people will ap-
preciate.
The Governor is expected to work
out plan for operating the affairs
of the closed banks of the state, to
save a vast amount of money now
being paid out for receivers.
He will no doubt be advised to go
slow in removing the league attaches
from their jobs, and even tho he may
want to show friends and foes alike
that he intends to be the Governor
of all the people, he will make a
serious mistake unless he does pretty
fair job of cleaning house.
The Independent has the utmost
faith in the honesty of Governor r,
A. Nestos whom we have known we'll
for many years. We believe that he
can be depended upon to do just about
the right thing down at Bismarck

Il over when the bills are all in and

or over when the bills are all in and
paid.
1t is also significant that the item
"due from correspondent banks outside
the state" in the monthly report of
the Bank Of North Dakota is sur
prisingly large. 1t remains over the
$1,OOO,O0O mark at time when funds
are greatly needed by the bank. Such
an amount of money would not be car
ried with correspondent banks unless
there was good reason for it. 1t is
not unlikely that the bond "sale" had
some string attached to it, whereby
certain big deposits were to be car
ried with outside banks.
The truth about the bond "sale" is
coming out gradually, and each new
fact disclosed makes the situation a
little worse. We are also gradually
getting the truth about the home
builders mess, and it also is worse
than anticipated. 1t will be surpris-
ing indeed if the truth about the other
state industries is not equally discon-
certinr.

Arthur C. Townley, national presi-
dent Of the Nonpartisan League, may
be asked to take the leadership of the
league in North Dakota in February,
at which time he will have complet-
ed his 80 days sentence in the county
Jail at jackson, MINI. A league con-
vention will be held in Bismarck in
February and Townley has been asked
to attend it. Lemke is aspiring to
the leadership Of the league. In al!
campaigns which he managed prior
to the recall, the league was success
full. Lenlke did not manage the re-
call campaign. Townley was out of
the state during the last campaign,
so the defeat of the league cannot
be laid to his management. Lieder-
bach had as much to do with the man
agement as anyone and he is due for
the discard. Townley it is said, plans
on leading one faction of the league
and using it as balance Of power, Of
fering the assistance of his organiza
tion to whichever 70 the other two pol
itical factions offer the farmers the
most in the way Of socialistic pro-
gram. The league is due to be split
in at least two factions.

important DEVELOPMENTS

| Important developments are in
progress at the disarmament confer
ence at Washington and without any
doubt great good will come out of it.
President Harding's suggestion Of a
ten year naval holiday has met with
ready response on the part of all of
the powers. True, the plan may not
be adopted just as it was presented
by Secretary Hughes but it is forming
basis upon which to work. Great
Britain has already stopped work on
the four great warships of the super
Hood type which were to have cost
S500,0 0,000,000.G0. They were to have
been the greatest fighting vessels
afoat, even greater than the greatest
ship in Japan's navy, today the most
powerful fighting vessel afloat. Great
Britain has repudiated her previous
suggestion that the powers be per-
mjtted tc build one capital ship year
in order to preserve shipyard facili-
ties. Japan wants to be allowed an
aggregate tonnage Of capital ships
slightly larger than that suggested
by Secretary Hughes and that in aux
iliary ships for defensive purposes
she be permitted to equal the ton
mage of England and the United
| States.
China has come forward with her
bills of right and in this she has the
backing of the United States, Great
Britain, France and Italy. Ever

COOPERATION VS.. STATE
OWNERSHIP

The farmers of North Dakota paid
s6 for 1876; SIG for 1918: SIG
FOR i9l9-20, making total Of S3S
each. Their leader stated under oath
May l, 1918, that the North Dakota
membership was $4,000. Then accord
ing to their own figures they collect
ed S1,9OO,OOO in dues. They collected
S1,10O,00O for stores, making a total
Of s3,00O,000 put up by the farmers
Of this state to obtain flour mills thru
the state ownership route.
The Drake mill cost 1000, and the
propaganda sheet of the Bank of
North Dakota for April Is. 1920, page
3, states that it can grind l37,5OO
bushels of wheat per annum.
Two mills for each and every coun-
~ in North Dakota on the Drake
basis would cost $2,12O,OOO, leaving
SS8O,OOO of the $3,O0O,O0O for operat-
ing capital The 1O6 mills according
20 the Bank of North Dakota could
grind 14,575,000 bushels of wheat per
annum. This would furnish bread for
three times the population of North
Dakota.
Not only could we have had under
cooperation, two mills in every county
grinding flour, but nearly every farm
cr and many of the women and chill
sren would own shares in the mills and
be earning those "big profits" that the
League papers tell us that the private
mills are earning. This is not the
only sad difference between Co-opera-
lion and State Ownership, as we would
not have to be paying double taxes to
maintain swarm of office holders,
nor be peddling bonds all over the
u. S., and which will have to be met
with STILL more taxes.
If we take the membership as given
n the Leader every year and multi
ply it by the annual dues, we find that
they have collected S10,690,000. Then
add the store stock and we get a
total Of 100000. This amount on
The Drake basis would buy $50 mills
and grind S0,9S7.500 bushels of wheat
per annum, and have over 100000
share holders, earning those big pro-
fits that the League papers tell us
hat private mills are earning.
The ONLY profits ever earned by
any mill on the state ownership route
was the Walter Thomas mill of 81 900
Der month salary.
It's about time to take an inven
tory of our doings.

Japan is expected to subscribe to many
of the points presented by China.
That country has been divided time
and again by the powers and she now
asks that all special rights and privi-
leges accorded those nations be deem
ed null and void. France declares her
desire to aid China by giving up
Kouang Tcheou provided Great Brit
ain gives up Wei Hei Wei and Japan
Shantung. France has also declared
her willingness to reduce her army to
such size as may only be necessary
for her own protection.

money has been allotted where it is

Stefansson, the renowned Arctic en-
plorer, who appeared in Minot re-
Gently, was once student at the
North Dakota state university, but he
was fired from the institution because
he showed too much independence.
Stefansson was working his way thru
college and he left without permission
to go into the country to teach school
for two weeks as a substitute. When
he returned he was asked for an ex-
planation and because it was not sat-
sfactory, he was invited to look else
to about forty colleges and universi-
entering college. He insisted that he
be advanced as rapidly as examina-
tions proved him worthy and the Iowa
state university accepted him on this
basis. He entered as a Freshman
and in one year received his b. A. de-
gree later attending Yale. Stefansson
is bright and never took anything for
granted which frequently proved en-
barrassing to the faculty. The fact
that he would not accept statements
made by Peary and other explorers at
their face value, caused him to lnves-
tigate and prove to his own satlsfac-
tion that seals could be found more
than a hundred miles from land, thus
enabling himself and his two compan-
ions to live for two years off the icy
regions which they explored. Stefans-
son just showed some good common
horse sense and the former North Da-
kota COW boy is now receiving $500.0O
a night for telling the folks about it.
