The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1921-10-20

Much sentiment is developing all
over the state in favor of trying to get
Supreme Court Judge Christensen to
come out as candidate for the Unit
ed States senate against McCumber in
the next primaries. There is no 9TH
er man in North Dakota in our judg-
ment, at least, who stands in so high
favor as does Mr.. ChristiansC\. He
would get a tremendous vote and his
election would please a lot of people
in this state. People are getting tired
of this Alex. McKenzieMc Cumber
stuff that is being put over these days.
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1921-10-20

Not a single advocate Of the league
program on the platform or any place
else, explains the present condition OF
North Dakota or the failure of the
present administration to make good.
The tax payer who is now going to the
court house to pay his taxes, knows
full we'll in his own mind, at least
that the present administration with
out any reason, has so greatly in
creased the taxes that they are be-
coming burden. The fact is also to
be borne in mind that next years tax
es will be still higher. The admins
tration is Juggling with the tax levy
this year and is not making the levy
as required by law but is holding it up
until after the recall election. The
state gang knows very we'll that it is
up against stone wall. If you ask
any of their speakers question they
very adroitly turn it aside and refuse
to answer. The only argument they
put forth in their speeches from the
platform is that big business is try
ing to get hold of the state. That is
the way they camoufage the issues
now confronting the people and they
explain nothing of the waste and
recklessness of the present regime.
They have nothing to explain-they
have wrecked the state financially and
industrially and now all they have to
tell the voter is to vote no on all laws
and. that big business and the banks
are going to get the country.
The Times-Record announced editor
tally but unoficially last night that the
state board of equalization was going
to raise the levy for state taxes one
hundred per cent. We were so care
full about making this statement last
night that we did not get it high
enough. The county auditor has re-
ceived official notification Of the raise
but instead of it being one hundred per
cent it is one hundred and five per
cent. And fellow sufferers in this
great new day experience, this is not
all. The board with desire to con-
ceal the needs Of the present financial
crisis in the state. very carefully
avoid making levy for interets to

Can any Lacquer living in any town
ship in this state, which said town
ship has been awarded an Airedale
pup or promise Of pure bred calf:
tell US what benefits they have re-
ceived outside the pup or a promise
for calf-providing they come across
with all the money they can-from
this new day program now in vogue
in North Dakota. They cannot point
to a single benefit received. On the
other hand we can point out to them
that their taxes have been increased
to such an extent they are carrying a
load that is breaking their backs.
They have shot the credit of the state
to pieces so that farmers cannot get
a loan on their land. They have built
fifty-three state owned houses at a
cost of several thousand dollars more
than the law allows, and the funny
part Of the whole business is that in
stead of the poor man having these
houses built for them as was intend
ed by the law, it is the big business
fellows, like Tax Commissioner Wal
lace, VIM. Lemke, Commissioner Of
Agriculture Hagan and like birds
drawing fine salaries and who do not
need help from the state, that are
getting these fine mansions the
beauty Of it all is that none Of them
have contracts with the state for these
houses and as the houses are the prop
erty of the state they do not have to
pay taxes on them, all of which must
show to the tax payer that if these
men were so full Of zeal and honesty
in helping the poor farmer get relief
they would at least pay some of the
taxes they are imposing on others. In
