tional boundary.
Another branch would also run by
way of Napoleon, connecting with the
above road at or near Hazelton.
- With the ever-increasing automo-
bile traffic, this road system will be of
unlimited benefit to all the people.
Besides giving excellent local roads,
it will then be possible for persons to
travel anywhere with comfort and a
minimum of expense. 1t will be a
wonderful advertisement for the
state, bringing hundreds of additional
tourists to North Dakota who will
leave considerable money when they
pass beyond our borders again.
When this road-building program
has been gotten well under way, a
system of public tourists parks will
follow to that tourists may
know that at convenient places they
may find accommodations for camp
ing over night on their journey.
Pacific coast states have pushed
their road program to the limit and
are far ahead of this part of the
country. Minnesota has started
work on her program, and North Da-
kota can link up with her in a few
years by taking action now.

The Record has not now, and never
has had, any opposition to a nonparti-
san Lacquer, per Sc. We have failed
to grasp the beauties of socialism and
an unlimited program of government
ownership, in the light CT present and
past experience. Every radical tells
us at every opportunity what rotten
government we have. Yet he would
put unlimited industrial enterprises
in such hands. The same people will
be choosing our public servants in the
future as in the past. The same sort
of people will therefore likely rule us
in the future as in the past. The
same giving into temptation will be
experienced, and the same misrepre-
sensations and prejudices will be con-
tinued. Hence, the same corruption
inefficiency and graft in high places
will be encountered in the future.
Hence, the amount of graft will like
ly depend in no small amount on the
opportunity. The vast graft of the
shipping board and the aircraft pro.
duction and other way endeavors
was only made possible by the gov
eminent going into these undertake
ings. True, requirements of wal
may have dictated our going into
them, but the results speak for them
selves. The average socialist pro.
duces the best refutation of his own
! arguments when he gloats over the
rotten spots in the history of our gov
eminent.
The greater. the opportunity TO,
graft, the greater the probability OF
graft. The less cumbersome the
form of government, and the less ak.
ating, the more popular and the prob,
able great lease of life. Government
is primarily to afford protection to
the individual and to regulate the
dealings of the individual in society
It is not an industrial enterprise in
,, any sense Of the word. Industry is a
matter that. concerns the individual
Regulation alone comes within the
rightful sphere Of government.

One of the important matters COM
ing up at this session Of the legisla.
ture is the so-called Whitman Amend.
ment to the state constitution. This
bill is introduced sby Sen. Whitman
of Grand Forks, and provides for q
trunk system of roads throughout the
state patterned after the Babcock
amendment recently adopted in Min.
nesota.
The Whitman amendment will like.
ly pass the legislature, as it is backed
by influential members of both politi.
cal factions. The amendment would
then be voted upon by the people al
the general election in 1922. The
amendment specifies just where the
various trunk lines are to run and pro.
vides that not over five millions in
bonds shall be issued in any one year
and that not more than fifty millions
shall accrue at any time, such bonds
to be sold at par and to draw moi
more IMAM b per cent interest fol
twenty years.
There has been formed in this state
good roads association, and work is
to be conducted in all parts of the
state to acquaint people with our road
needs, and to build up a sentiment TO,
a constructive road program. The
proposed amendment provides for 25
various projects which are so inter
woven as to connect all parts of the
state with the proposed runk system,
There will be main trunk running
down the Red river, one running west
from Grand Forks, and one west from
Fargo, as well az such others as are
needed.
We give herewith Route No. 4
which is the nearest to us here. It

The terrible financial mess in which
the packing plant at Fargo finds it.
self is just another example of the
necessity of brains, experience and di-
recting energy in conducting large in
dustrial enterprises. No doubt, one
of the main causes of the financial
misfortune of this institution is the
lack of necessary brains in the scheme
of management. Brains command
money, and the organizing geniuses
along this line are no doubt quickly
swallowed up by the big concerns.
The little fellows, like Pat Casey, are
what's left.

One of the most foolish expendi-
lures of public moneys in the state in
the past four years has been the
100000 appropriated to DR.. Worst's
immigration commission. Walter
Ligget, socialist publicity man of the
Nonpartisan League, has been kept on
the immigration payroll while acting
as publicity agent for the radicals at
Washington, D. C. His search for
settlers has caused him to address So
cialists and other radical organiza-
tions at Washington, New York and
other large eastern cities. Already
the department has squandered about
$4,000, and we are still waiting to
hear of the first new settler brought
to this country, by it, at least.
In fact, we have been having trou-
bic keeping the settlers we have here
rather than trying to get more.
1t is quite probable that no appro-
priation will be made by the present
session for this department, and that
it will cease to exist during the next
two years for lack of funds. In
fact, many of the unnecessary exren-
sive appendages that have beer
hooked onto the state payroll since
1917 will be swept away by the re-
fusal of the legislature to appropriate
funds for their further keep. Take
for instance, the board of administra-
ton. Some $4,000 is asked to run
that department. They are asking
about ten times too much. About
$4,000 would be sufficient. Then
presidents of private packing plants
would not be drawing three or fou,
thousand per year from the state, as
well. Much Of the boards work has
been replaced in the state superin-
tendent's office. And the boards ap.
preparation can thus be cut materi.
ally.
The above is only a sample Of the
cuts that are advisable. Fifty. pc,
cent of the eight millions asked by the
budget board can we'll be done away
and probably will be.

A recent article in the Fargo Cour-
ier-News purports to give inside in
formation On some movement within
the ranks of the Independents to get
behind Usher l.. Burdick for governor
in 1922, and the editor of the Record
is mentioned in connection with the ar
ticle. If there is no more truth 20
the supposition than the part pertain
ing to the Record man, then the Cour-
Ter News man has been dreaming an
other sweet pipe-dream. The Rec
ord man has not heard that Mr.. Bur-
dick is interested in again becoming a
candidate for governor, and we have
never at any time discussed with any
one on the advisability of attempting
to get Mr.. Burdick into the ring.
While the Record man is not in
any way sympathizer with the as
pirations of the so-called old-gang ell
ement of the Independents in this
state, his first ambition is to see the
power of the present political ring in
control broken to the end that no
further financial mischief will be done
in the state, and to the end that q
constructive program of Strengthening
out the mess at the earliest possible
moment may be commenced.
To that end, we are in hopes that
some common ground may be found
whereby well-meaning nonpartisan
league supporters and well-meaning
Independents may cooperate in the
coming campaigns. But mutual in
tolerance as exemplifed by the daily
Del. Patterson-Twichell clashes fails
to indicate any hope along this line,
as yet.

Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

The ".smoke artist" in last weeks
Free Press says the Record man new
er Travelled the road on which the new
bridge is to be located because there
isn't any such road. To show how
smooth the party thinks himself to be,
the fact is the road runs around the
present location of the bridge through
private property, with several gates
to be opened. When the bridge and
the grading is completed the road will
run along the section line and across
the new bridge. Of course, there
wasn't any road right at the actual
location of the bridge. A detour was
made to make is possible to get
through at all. This bridge and the
graded road straightens it out and
makes it passable. The gentleman
in the Free Press tries to mislead the
general public, though. Staging
fake raids isn't the only way Mr.
Lynn has Of misleading the public.

Consistency, thou art a jewel"
The people demand an investigation
of our state industries. Just prior
to the recent elections, the battery of
league newspapers turn loose with
their broadsides about the profits" of
the Drake mill. The Linton Free
Press tells about the vast profits of
the Drake mill, and the much higher
prices paid for grain. Now, election
is over. The audit report, after run
ming a gauntlet Of many delays and
much opposition becomes public. 1t
reports a deficit in the Drake mill.
McGovern, who two years ago ap-
'peared before the legislative commit
zee as an expert on milling, resigns,
admits the loss at the mill, refuses to
accept responsibility, passing it on to
the socialist attorney from Minneapo-
lis, Anderson, who acted as secretary
for the industrial commission, and
has just been appointed by Lemke as
deputy attorney general. McGovern
further states that the loss is the re-
suit of a failure of the management
to hedge" Anderson refuses to ac-
cept responsibility. Failure to
hedge, and yet the leaguers demand
laws to prohibit hedging.
Well, anyway, McGovern will go.
The initiated law requiring an exam
nation of the industries has already
done that much. McGovern, who
busted farmers elevator at Madison,
S. D., some years ago, now retires
with the Drake mill in the hole TWEEN
ty or thirty thousand dollars.
These are but straws showing how
the wind blows in North Dakota.
Won't our farmers and our business
men look these conditions squarely in
the face, and then remove the cause?
Otherwise, where is the money to
come from to pay all these deficits as
they mount up one after the other?
The Consumers stores have proven
q lemon financially for those trusting
farmers who put their money in them.
The packing plant has gone behind
nearly fifty percent of its entire cap
ital.
The league newspapers have added
an additional burden on the farmers.
League dues year after year have
mounted up.
The Drake mill has gone behind,
and, after denying it for months, the
league now admits such to be a fact.
Thousands of dollars have been
spent by Blakemore for lumber at top
prices that has not been used, but will
be carried over for next season when
lumber has dropped a vast amount.
The report of the auditors claim this
Homebuilders association under
Blakemore to be the most horrible
mess and botch ever experienced by
them. And who are the poor far
mers and workers to secure the state
built houses? Lemke is one of them,
and prominent Bismarck men are the
others.
Tax moneys have been used in these
various ventures, and in loaning ex-
horbitant amounts on real estate to
league workers and relatives Of prom
inent leaguers. Now, with thousands
Of dollars on open account in the
Bank Of North Dakota, counties and
other units are unable to cash their
checks for the most important ex-
pense items. Thouands Of dollars of
state funds are tied up in the various
