FOR THE GOOD OF THE LEAGUE

Gummerson and Totten, headllnefs
br the nonpartisan league troupe OF
pmedians have made their exit.
They threatened to "show up the
league" if they were prosecuted TOR
the various and serious crimes with
which they were charged. Evidently
thew had something to tell for the
charges against them were dropped;
If Gummerson and Totten are guilty
of felonies or even misdemeanors why
does the league not perform its duty
and prosecute. What business has the
league to say to these men that II
thew would sign a retraction OF the
charges made against various nonpar-
tisan leaders, they would not be prose-
cuted? ,a
If Gummerson and Totten know so
much about the league that would pc
of interest to the people OF the state
whv not disclose this knowledge!
Why? Totten says it all in a lew
II signed the article (retraction) for

advise of Attorney General Lemke."
That's the whole story.
For the good of the league.

General Lemke. >,
He might have said ."Bill Lemke''
for surely Bill wasn't acting as at.
torney general when he stood by and
saw these men charged with crimes
released because they had done some
thing for the good Of the league.
Bill Lemke is so busy ordinarily
with the business of the league that ne
and his assistants, it is said have 1T
tie time to perform their official du.
ties. After all perhaps it is well that
the people of the state do not get too
many opinions from an attorney VINO
for the interests of his so-called poll

POLITICAL "EXHIBITS" AT THE
FAIR

North Dakota is a pioneer state IN
more ways than one. What other
state in the Union has been able to
exhibit it's politics at an interstate
fair? But North Dakota did it at Far
20 last week. 1t was very good ex.
hibit too, giving a fair showing OF
the different kinds of political sys-
tens, one expounded by the l. V. A.
and the other dominated by the non
partisan league.
The nonpartisan league managers
lived up to it's doctrine Of politics for
revenue. They started a restaurant
on Church Row in competition with
the different ladies aid societies and
other church organizations and had
barkers around soliciting trade away
from those who did volunteer work
for the churches.
The Independent Voters Association
had merely service station where
water was the only refreshment OBJ
tainable and it was served free; at
the I. V. A. "exhibit" visitors were
also given such assistance and guild
ance as they asked for. In addition
to this the I. V. A. had Ford car sta
toned at the tent and large sign in
formed visitors that half-hourly ex-
cursions were made free of charge to
Lemke's state owned house.

President Harding is urging gov.
rnment economy, and business and
financial leaders are telling the public
% stop waste and to work and save
in order to restore sound conditions
It would make a good beginning by
stopping the preventable fire waste OF
the country, which amounted to over
$500, OOO,0 900 last year, or approx
mately $l,37O,000 a day. Much is ex-
pected from the application OF the
budget system to national ;expendll,,
lures, but the American people could
save more than it will save them II
they will only be reasonably careful
about fire. Carelessness and ignor..
ance normally figure as the CHIEF
causes of our fires, but there is also
the mistaken belief of many that when
property is insured against fire the In
surance companies are the only ones
to worry if it burns. AS matter OF
fact, insurance costs are 80 closely m
terwoven with our social and economic
fabric that we are all affected by the
fire waste. The careless or Ignorant
citizen responsible for fire taxes
himself as we'll as his fellows. When
this truth becomes recognized by a
majority of the American public, then
will our fire waste begin to decrease

The house of representatives at
Washington yesterday passed the
Fordney bill which is supposed to
raise $500,O00,00o in revenue an,
nually. 1t passed by vote Of 2S9
to l27. Seven republicans voted
against the measure. Representative
Sinclair, of the third North Dakota
district, posing as a republican, IS
classed among the seven. The fact OF
the matter is that Sinclair always has
been a democrat and is no more a re-
publican than is William Jennings
Bryan. He was elected as republl-
can by the nonpartisan league because
he knew and so did the league that
had he been running as democrat ne
would have been defeated. So after
all there were only six republicans vot-
ing against this tariff bill. Chairman
Fordney brought the members to their
feet whe he made the statement that
the bill would bring greater prosper
ity to the country than it now en-
joyed.

The Courier-News this morning
SAYS that the people do not want to go
to the expense Of a recall election.
There may be something in that, but
then the people have been forced into
this by the reckless waste and pro-
f1igacy of the state administration.
we are up against serious financial
shortage in the state and bills have
been held up for the past two months
The people did not want to stand Tor
the spending of fifty thousand dollars
in an endeavor to sell bonds down
east, which said endeavor provided a
bunch of leaguers trip down east to
spend the peoples money at big hotels
and on the railroads and dining cars
The Courier-News over looks these
items when it is complaining about
the cost. It does not tell its readers
that fourteen thousand dollars of the
victory fund contributed by he farm
ers of the state has gone into the sink
| hole of that paper to pay newspaper
bills and that nearly the same amount
of that fund has been paid over to the
league managers in salaries. Why
not carry the truth to the people ano
thereby show the world that square
deal is what they want to give instead
of deceit and camoufage. Why don't
the league leaders come out in a man
! ly clean way and tell the people they
have been wrong and unable to carry
the state under its present load Of mis-.
management. Any effort to do right
would be appreciated instead Of this
everlasting bounding the people fol
money to keep them in office. They
have been in control of the state fol
the past five years and have beer
found deficient in management ane
have cost the tax payers of the state
millions of dollars. The recall will bt
the cheapest possible method of stop
ping any more such waste and VIZ
guess the majority Of the people are
willing to pay the bill.

The governor of Illinois has been
accused of Juggling severa! million
dollars of state funds and the state
authorities have issued warrant tor
his arrest, but the governor says he is
the law supreme in his state and the
fact that he is the governor makes him
immune from arrest. That is a fine
proposition and bum law if it is a
fact. A poor, humble citizen is SUBJ
iect to arrest without any question
but here the governor of great state
can hide behind his official position
and 20 around in society as big. as
ever. There is no justice in anything
of that sort. If Gov. Small is guilty
of juggling state funds he
should be promptly placed under ar
rest the same as any other law break.
er. That seems to be the trouble all
over the land. We have public ofti-
Gals breaking the laws every day but
thew hide behind that public halo OF
official life and go unpublished. There
is something wrong with our laws
when they can do that. A fine spec
tacle it is to see the governor OF a
great state like Illinois resisting ar
rest by the use Of state troops.

fatten the league pot very materially
by buying these bonds. If they think
they are good securities at this time
they should set good example by
buying literally themselves. Doctors

Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
THIS PARLOUS TIME.

1t is no time for knocking, or pull
ing doleful face; predictions dire and
shocking are badly out of place For
years our mood was mellow, we gam
boiled and we pranced; and now we
pay the fellow who fiddled while we
danced Now let us be brave critters,
and pay the bill in style, and while we
take our bitters, present dauntless
smile. We're busy readjusting, we'd
get back on the track, and many
things are busting, and many more
must crack; it's courage that we are
needing. and patience and good sense.
and bosoms that are bleeding should
bleed behind the fence. We knew
when things were blooming that set
tlement must come, the day of fate
was looming before us, stark and
glum; and now that day we're facing,
so let's conceal our fears; there Is no
use disgracing our sex by shedding
tears. All things will be adjusted,
there are good times in store, the
boons in which we trusted will be on
deck once more, and he is streaked
with yellow who makes a mournful
din. now that we pay the fellow who
played the violin.

The Farm and the City

The number of Institutes which are being
held these days in surrounding rural districts,
and the that is to be held here, are helping
to bridge the gulf that has kept the farmer and
the city dwelled far apart.
They are beginning to realize more and more
that their interests are identical and that the
welfare of one is intimately connected with the
welfare of the other. The disposition to see this
common ground is great forward step in solv-
ing the many irksome conditions which have
handicapped the farmer.
We formerly believed that the farmer had
nothing in common with us and that his prob
lens were confined entirely to the acres which
he titled, forgetting that if the farmer does not
produce crops those of who live in the city
will have no food to sustain us in our work in
the shop and office.
The Institutes not only show the farmer how
he can produce a greater yield and how to i'm
prove his live stock, but also show us how de-
pendent we are on him for our daily bread. Ag-
ricuture will always be the basic industry of the
land, and the one upon which our happiness and
depends.
A proper appreciation of the farmer and of
the many problems which have beset him re-
Gently will go far way toward changing our
attitude toward him and of making those adj
vances which will enable him to make his enter
prise a paying one for himself and of profit to u.s.

upon the attendance and reception that is &C
corded to the organization tonight.
A capacity house that will show it's apprecia-
ton of the efforts of the players, who are giving
freely of their time for the development of the
orchestra's excellence, will convince them Rich
mond really wants to support it.
The establishment of the orchestra on firm
basis will give to this city an enviable position
as musical center. There are very few cities in
the United States of the size Of Richmond that
can boast of many accomplished musicians
and of as many persons who have made study
of music.
Their individual love of music is collectively
expressed in the symphony orchestra, which
seeks to develop love for good music in the com.
munity and to give to all of us an opportunity to
hear it interpreted.
Proper support of the orchestra is as much
of civic endeavor as is any of the scores of
other enterprises that engage our attention and
time.
