STATE PAYS IT'S INTEREST

The state OF North Dakota will paw the inter-
est on its outstanding securities as it becomes due.
That announcement has just been made by Treas
urer steen. The financial affairs of the state are
badly involved. Money has been wasted and inn
properly used. Some of the funds which should
nave lasted tor another year are exhausted, and it
will take careful management and considerable
time to bring affairs to anything like normal. But
there will be no defaulting in interest. and no post
ponement Of payment if payment. is demanded.
The credit of the state will be protected at all haz-
ards.
Ihe decision of the treasurer to take steps to
provide the funds for the payment of interest if
funds out OF which such payments would ordinari-
" be made are not available is wise and prudent
The people OF North Dakota will suffer some loss
and not a little inconvenience because of their re-
cent adventures, and it is quite likely that money
for several entirely desirable purposes will not be
available. But the state must pay the money that
IT has borrowed, principal and interest, when pay
nent-1s due, no matter what else has to wait. The
same consideration of honor ought to govern in the
case OF the state that govern in the case of a private
individual. The honorable man viii pay his debts
II ne has to postpone the purchase of things which
are necessary for his own comfort. He does that
citizenship of the state must proceed along the
sameline.
Ehe prompt settlement Of these obligations is
q matter Of good business. If default is made the
credit OF the state suffers, and other loans cannot
be made on advantageous terms. There is there
tore q very practical value in promptness. But if
payment had no bearing whatever on the future in
~terestsof the state, the element of honor that is in
Noived is sufficient to require that there be no Dues

those obligations fall due. 4

TO he SD! GENE court
Moon WAS convicted OF taking about

OF identification - the defendant by

The basis OF Identification by In

the fact scientifically established that
no two finger patterns are alike, and
that duplication OF II points of iden-
tity would not happen once in some
thirty billion comparisons OF finger
prints Hence. il follows as a math-
ematica! certainty that there was no
practical possibility that the finger
print on the cash register was made
by any finger other than the finger of
this defendant: all of which is care

CONSTRUCTION WILL

After many months OF delay and
difficulty the plans for the new home
and school for the deaf and dumb are
at least nearing completion. Within
a few weeks the last detail will have
been decided and ground will have
ben broken for the new buildings.
The community system will be fol-
lowed as far as possible and the ap-
preparation is large enough to enable
those in charge to lay out a very ex-
tensive and gratifying program.
Group dwellings are to be provided
to create a homelike atmosphere and
there is to be a dining hall and ad-
miristration building.
Ample land is provided for farming
which is to be carried on under the
latest approved methods.
Such deliberation has been used
in working out the details as to insure
against mistakes and every thing
points to a speedy and proper com
pIetion Of the new institution with q
view establishing something worthy
and worth while.
The delay which has occurred in
the construction of the building has
been due to a complication in the
land title. After the appropriation
was passed by the fourth state legis-
Iature, II was found that the nego
tiations for the land failed to show
