LET TIE FARMERS TAKE IT.

The Grand Forks American. promoted a. q profit
making enterprise, lost money on every day of Its ex-
istsnce. For a time 1t was kept alive by means OF con-
tr4budons Of one sort or another. and then it quit. 1t is
to be revived for the purpose of the coming campaign
all such cases. the farmers are to carry the load.
Tho Fargo Courier News has been maintained by
donations from the general league treasury, but money Is
not flowing into that receptacle as rapidly rs is desired,
and the general Organization proceeds to get out from
under. notifying the farmers that the paper is theirs. and
that it Is for them u TAKE It and keep the breath Of life
In it.
The Consumers Stores company is the medium
through which collections of 4 million or 50 were made
from. tho farmers, on the representation that the pur.
thasers of certificates were to be enabled through 1t to
save themselves a lot of money in their purchases of
goods. The concern has worried alons. with a lot Of
money spent for organization and educational" purposes,
and q little paid out for nneaEer stocks of inferior goods
which the subscribers themselves quickly rejected as not
up to the standard required BY them. Then the enter
prise projected itself into the hands Of a receiver. OF
the. 81 stores established Is are to be taken over by the
local subscribers as the best means in sight Of protecting
whatever equities the subscribers may haye in them. The
disposition to be made OF the rest is problematical. Again
1t is the farmer who carries the load. He would have
made as much money dahblink in Texas oil stocks or
1t doesn't make much difference what the name or
form OF orsanization of the concern may be. if it bears
the ear1narks of Townley and Lemks. it may be relied on
to be another scheme for extracting money from the
pockets Of the farmer.

A HARD COUNTRY TO DEAL WITH.

HAH&.H NNN 49,
Russia is q difficult country foy civilized peoples to
have dealings with. There are people in Russia whom
eyeTy humane person desires to help. But there are con-
ditions which make the giving a real assistance difficult,
if not impossible.
There are cases in which the head of a family neg
lects or refuses to provide for those dependent on him.
He makes no effort to obtain work, and carefully avoids
such work as comes his way. He pays no rent, pleading
that he has no money. When the endurance and the pa
ticnce of his landlord are exhausted he defied him, TAX
ing advantage of all the technicalities Of the law to re-
main under another mans roof as long as possible. The
public authorities provide food for his family. as they
cannot permit innocent people to starve, and, because it
is difficult for officials to determine just where the line
of responsibility is to be drawn, the Sinking head Of the
family is also permitted to eat OF the food provided by
those members who do work, and who thus maintain
not only their own families but those of the idler. oc-
oasionally such an individual is jailed for refusing TO
maintain his family, but more often he is permitted to
eat the bread of idleness.
Russia needs many things which others would be
glad to provide. But those who are generously inclined
are faced with the prospect of having appropriated that
which they contribute for the relief OF the needy and de-
serving appropriated by those who are not deserving
and who. if needy, are SO because they prefer to live on
the labor of others rather than to put forth an honest
effort of their own.

WORK FOR CONGRESS.

The extra seccion of congress which begins now is
considered likely to last until we'll along to the fall
months, and quite probably, right up to the time Of the
regular session in December. During the war period
our congress had some very important decisions to make,
and aside from questions relating to the actual proseeu-
tons of the war. no congress has had more important
duties to perform than those which devolve upon the
present body, Practically the entire problem of recon-
struction is before them. We have made some attempts
at adjustment, but these are scarcely a scratch on the
surface. It is necessary to get down to bed rock, and
build the foundation for a permanent structure of peace
and prosperity.
Involved in the tariff question which is one Of the
subjects for early consideration is the entire matter of
our trade relations with foreign countries. These re-
lauons are to be- adjusted between a nation which is a
going concern. and In spite of many complications. a
fairly prosperous one. with other nations whose condition
ranges from that Of the fairly hopeful prospect to that
OF absolute bankruptcy. No such complicated condi-
ton has ever before presented itself on a similar scale.
The problem Of taxation is of equal Importance with
that Of the tariff. Our taxation system during the war
was based upon the necessity for obtaining the greatest
amount Of money in the shortest possible time. Neces-
sarily. many defects characterized the methods employed.
There were inequalities and injustices. Some Of the
methods were not as effective in obtaining money as
they were. hoped to be, and others, While resulting in
the payment Of large sums of money into the treasury,
operated at the expense Of the countrys industries, and in
that manner, impaired its power to produce taxes. The
amendment Of these methods is one Of the most import
ant duties before congress; and congress must act now,
not as an emergency body seeking to obtain money for a
temporary purpose. but as a constructive body seeking
to place the finance on . permanent foundation. SO that
the payment OF taxes may 60 band in hand with the high
est development Of industry.
The political relations OF the United States and for
eisn countries constitutes a subject which presses. for
attention. Problems are presented which must be solved
and solved correctly. The United States. as a partici-
pant in the war, performed certain services and incurred
certain Obligations. The nation has rights throughout
the globe which It must protect; 1t has duties which it
must perform: and here again, is a matter requiring the
earnest attsntion Of wise and patriotic law makers.
There are domestic problems of many kinds await
ing solution The transportation is one Of them; the
adjustment Of our industrial condition is another. There
are problems of reclamation, of highway legislation, and
many other things Of vital importance to Z nation, con.
siderAtion OF which cannot be deferred. and which must
Be treated in 4 broad and constructive spirit

AN A1RocnoUs cRnE RECALLED.

one of the most abominabls crimes in the history of
the country. is recalled by the announcement that John
]. lofsanara, who was sentenced to Is years inprason-
ment for murder in connection with the dynannitins Of
the Los Angeles Times building in 1910. will be releaSed
from the San Quentin penitentiary on May 10, the credits
which he has earned by good behavior meantime emitting
him to his freedom at that time.
In the multitude Of trilling events which have taken
place since that time the Mcnamara case has doubtless
been almost forgotten by this time. 1t will be recalled,
however. that following bitter controversies between the
labor organizations. the Times building was wrecked by
an explosion, and some twenty-odd persons were killed.
Investigation led to the arrest of the McNana1a brothers
the younger for being directly concerned in the explosion.
and john the elder, for having engineered this and other
outynSeg at similar character from his office in Indiana,
where he was president of a structural workers. union.
ii Nas charged that these men had been participants IA
An slahoeaae scheme tor terroridng their opponents by
causing Ill sorts of property destruction when it was con-
sidesed that this course would promote their plans.
Aside from the brutality of the crime Which had bsen
coanmttted. the specially interesting feature OF the case
was the manner in which the criminals, using their labor
connachon Us q screen, hoodwinked reputable labor men
an ever the country to espouse their cause. The claim
nd been selected as victims because Of their labor unior
activities, and that the predatory interests had determined
tnNfailroad them to prison Or to the scanold, hoping
thyeush their unjust conviction, to discredit all labor
in the minds Of the general public. Gre
.dena1 was given to such assertions by some Of the mos
fNW-abadinx labor men in the country. and such men vert
inaxnyessihly shocked when. on the eve Of their trial
