PAY DAY is AT HAND

Through out the recent campaign
The Forum repeatedly charged that
the farm loan business of the Bank
of North Dakota would show heavy
losses because of the fact that SO
many of the loans were "political''
and would not be paid. 1t was pointed
out that the taxpayers would be
forced to make good this loss, and re-
pay both the interest and the princl-
pal of the bonds.
We hardly expect such prompt and
decisive confirmation of that state
nent as is now presented, however.
On Jan. l, half years interest on
the 100000 of real estate bonds will
be due. 1t will amount to about $l15.-
900, but the balance in the fund to
meet these interest charges is less
than $4,000. Inasmuch as no tax
has vet been levied for the purpose
the problem of meeting this interest
payment is not small one.
That is a concrete illustration OF
just why investors did not look with
favor on North Dakota bonds under
the old administration. 1t is the rea-
son and the only reason The Forum
ever gave for questioning the value
of the bonds as an investment, after
their legality was established.
The money received from the sale
of the bonds was squandered in large
part, or invested foolishly and reck-
lessly, and no provision was made to
meet the interest payments. The
whole value of bond as an invest
ment lies in the absolute assurance
given that both interest and principa!
will be paid promptly when due. If
the investor has to wait indefinitely
for his interest, or if there is any
prospect that he will have to do so, ne
might as well invest in speculative
security at much higher rate and
take his chances there.
It doesn't matter how rich state
may be it's credit is good only SO
long as it meets it's obligations
promptly, and this incident is the best
possible proof that North Dakota
wasn't conducting it's affairs in such a
manner as to permit it to 90 SO
That's the whole case against the
bonds, and that blunder is one of the
stiff problems this administration has
inherited from the Frazier-Lemke
regime-Forum.

ANOTHER BANK GOES

ypfoeosMt. them; gspendinthWF oft
There were three banks in Mohall
Renville county, and Saturday the
last of the three went into the hands
of a receiver. There had been one
other bank failure, down in Adams
county, since the I. V. A. victory. This
Mohall failure was the first to occur
since the new officials took office, how
ever. It is the first strictly l. V. A.
failure.
We were promised that with the |:
V. A. victory everything would
change. Money would become plentl-
full and farmers and bankers alike
would have all the credit they need
And the nonpartisan league was ac-
cused of using the receivership for po-
litical purposes.
The I. V. A. are now in office, and
still banks fail. Why? And will the
l. V. A. administer the closed banks
in any way differently than the non
partisan league has done? If SO, how!
The above is clipping taken from
the Courier-News this morning, and
is printed by them as an editorial. AS
an editorial it's value lies in demon
strating the childishness of the editor
However, their final question is time
w. We citizens are also wondering
how it will be possible for the present
administration to administer the at
fairs of the closed banks in any way
different from the nonpartisan league
while Frazier's last minute appointee
Semmingson, holds the position OF
bank examiner. There is one ray OF
hope in Semmington's appointment
if he follows in the footstedps of his
predecessor he will soon be removed
from office, for cause.

THE SNOWSTORM

(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
Announced by all the trumpets of the
sky, -,
Arrives the snow, and, driving DER the
fields, -,
Seems nowhere to alight: the whited
air
Hides hills and woods, the river, and
the heaven,
And wells the farmhouse at the gar
denis end.
The sled and traveller stopped, the
courier's feet
DELAYED, all friends shut out, the
housemates sit
Around the radiant fireplace, enclosed
Tn tumultuous privacy of storm.
Come. see the north winds masonry
Out Of an unseen quarry evermore
Furnished with tile, the fierce arti-
fcer
Curves his white bastions with pro-
jected roof
Round every windward stake or tree
or door. :.
Speeding, the myriad-handed his
wild work
So fanclful, so savage, naughI cales
he
For number or proportion. Mockingly
On coop or kennel he hangs Parlan
wreaths; ,.,,
A swan-like form invests the hidden
thorn; :,
Fills up the farmers lane from wall
to wall,
Mauore the farmers signs; and at the
gate
A tapering turret overtops the work
And when his hours are numbered:
and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were
not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, as
tonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone
Built in an age, the mad winds night
work,
The frolic architecture OF the snow.

would have every mile of them

Likewise he would have the tobacco

eminent monopolies for many years:
released for private exploitation.
He also would have the Govern
ment get out of the telegraph and
telephone business, in which, as COM
pared with the success achieved by
private management in the United
States, it has cut anything but a
brilliant figure.
M. Levy has no faith in govern
ment capacity for bsiness and
so declares. In his opinion govern
ment assumption of business func-
lions invariably means overloaded
payrolls, relaxed Individual effort
waste, extravaganza and minimized
responsibility, both collective and in.
dividual. By customs duties and
taxes levied on the industries the
Government revenues might be heavi-
ly increased over those derived from
their State operation, he argues. He
contrasts the return from the Govern
ment's monopoly of the tobacco trade
in France with the British govern
ment's revenue from taxes and GUS
toms duties levied on the same bust
ness in private hands. Last year the
net retuhn to the French government
from it's tobacco monopoly was &c.,
100000 francs. From import duties
on tobacco and internal taxation on
the trade the British government in
the same period collected 6O,O0O,O 900
pounds sterling. At normal exchange
this would be 1900, 100000 francs. M.
Levy says:
"Let US restrict the govern
ment to it's true attributes. Ma
tional defense, foreign affairs, the
administration of justice, public
works beyond municipal resource
es, and public instruction without
pretending to assume complete
monopoly Of the same-here is
field large enough to engage the
activities of ministers and parlia-
ments. Everywhere else let us
permit the country to do it's own
business and let US replace func-
tionaries with free men response
BILE for their enterprises"
In other words, "more business in
government and less government in
business" as President Harding put it.
It is a maxim which the wars bitter
experience has demonstrated to be
sound. The socialistic government
ownership obsession still linggers in
spots. In the end: like all other de-
lusions, it must go.-N. Y. Herald.

STATE OWNERSHIP'S COLLAPSE.

The socialistic dream Of govern
ment ownership and operation OF
basic industries and public utilities
has come in for some hard knocks OF
late. Even in France, long welded
by tradition to this form Of paternal-
ism, a movement looking to the d.
vorce of the government from bust
ness is under way.
In an article in the Revue des Deux
Mondes one of Frances highest eco
nomic authorities, Rachael Georges
Levy. urges that the government di..
vest itself as speedily as possible OF
all the varied forms of business activ-
ity in which it is engaged. This ap-
plies not merely to the industries
forcel under government control by
war exigencies but to every form of
governmental business which in
fringes on the natural field of indi-
vidual enterprise.

ing those recently acquired with Al

On a long cruise the sailorman runs
shy Of clothing. His work suffers in
proportion to his il!,clal condition.
Shippers have Recognized this lnarl-
time maxim by keeping slop-chest.
Aboard a tidy man-of-war any mess Is
known as Stops Slop-chests hold
miscellaneous supply OF seaman's
clothing. Hence the name.
An account Of the first slop-chest
was chronicled in $50 b. G. 1t con.
tanned 1000 garments, assorted In
three sizes. The garments were ex.
actly alike and cyt TO fit the stern
sheets of galley slaves. Ethnologists
sometimes refer to them (the gar
ments) as breech-clOuts. The largest
was nautical cublt in circumference
or nearly a ife-size fathom.
Columbus gave us the next authentic
account of sfop-chests in 1892. He in
cluded leather boots, woven shirts,
dirks, breeches, sea-bonnets and neck
erchiefs. He makes no mention Of
wrist watches.
John Paul Jones turned the "Slop-
job" over to his supercargo or purser.
However. he got his little rake-off at
the end of the cruise. For it must be
understood that 1000 miles and a
month out fixes pretty good price on
necessary apparel.
Gum-boots were the greatest step
after the Civil war. Old sea-dOgs put
them down as sign that the navy was
going to hi. 1.-The idea of a tar mind
ing wet feet!" Yet they daily turned
to the chest for sewing gear, needles
and thimbles. and the like.
Then the Twentieth Century broke
like typhoon over our world. A hOlo-
caust of progress swept away the
relics of mans past. Mechanical
genius was supreme. Only the char
red stubble of original ideas remained
The slop-chest was one.
Now we have the "Clothing and
Small Stores Room" In it our mechan-
ical Jack may procure silk necker
chiefs, Sheffield steel knives and hand
sewn shoes, not boots, but gloves for
his feet. The captain makes no rake
of, and the purchase record is in quad
duplicate It's still the slOp- chest. how
ever, only different.
That Is metamOrphosis; which IS
sometimes better than liver pills for
cleansing life.
