NORTH DAKOTA ENDS
RECALL CAMPAIGN
Statewide Election Oct. 28 to
Settle Fate Of Public Owner
ship Experiment.
POLITICS rs NOT AN ISSUE
Whole Programme of Nom Par
tisan League Under Fire
Before the Voters.

sSeciaI Despatch to THs NEW YORK HnnALD
BISMARCK, N. D.. Oct. 22.-North Da-
kota's first experience with Statewide
recall election--the first also in the
United States-is in its final stages.
The Non-Partisan League-Farmer-La-
Dor administration is on trial before the
voters. Their verdict will be rendered
in the election Friday, October 2S.
The close of the campaign finds the
unique political organization, In which
Arthur c. Townley. bankrupt as a.
farmer on large scale, raised himself
into power in North Dakota and placed
himself at the head Of a national nom
partisan league of several hundred thou
sand members. facing its most severe
test. There is no party affiliation in the
recall election.
For the first time opponents of the
league maintain they are able to go be-
fore the voters of the State without the
disadvantage of having TO contend with
the leagues capture of the Republican
party organization. Voters either will
indorse Gov. Lynn J. Frazier and two
other Non-Partisan members Of the
State Industrial Commission or they
will vote for r. A. Nestos for Governor
and seat two other independents" in
office and on the commission which
manages the State owned. State oper-
ated industries.
The administrators management Of
the State-owned industries created un-
der the Non-Partisans' scheme Of estab-
fishing flour mills and terminal ele-
yators, a State bank. packing plants,

association is on trial
Experiment Called Failure.
The Independents, as the faction op-
posed to the League Is known, declare
that the States first experience in in
dustries In competition with privately
owned industries has proved a ghastly
failure. This failure they lay at the
door Of the men they seek to recall from
office and promise themselves to carry
out the industrial programme of the
Farmer-Labor organization until 1t has
had fair trial and the wisdom or fall
lacy Of State ownership Is decided.
1t is the third time within eighteen
months that the opposing political forces
in The State have done battle at the
polls. In the two elections already held

State by 5000 votes. Maintaining that

amendment and five initiated laws. to-
gether with their candidates in the cleo
tion. Curtailment of the industrial pro-
gramme. with a pledge to carry out the
original mill and elevator plans OF the
league is bound up in the pledges OF
these candidates and the programme OF
laws to be voted upon.
The Non-Partisan League programme
has not attained its promised. fulniment

owned and operated by the state. A

Abolition of the Bank Of North Da-
kota is proposed by the independents on
the ground that it has already proved
impractical Abolition of the Home Build
ers Association also Is proposed ON the
ground that wasteful management has
made it impractical. Completion Of the
large mill and elevator under construc-

be accomplished by the State in the mill

Governor.
VIII Try to Save State Bank.
On the other hand, the Non-Partisans
are ready to sacrifice almost any part
Of their programme rather than the
Bank of North Dakota. Through II
they propose to finance their state Indus
tries On the premise that In an es-
sentially agricultural State the greatest
question of all is that of credits. they
propose to expand the institution. make
It the centre OF borrowing power Tor
the farmers, and to dominate the bank
ing industry in the State.
The Industrial programme OF the State
experienced a bad start and 1t Is upon
this record that the opponents OF the
league are relying for victory. The
State-owned. State-operated flour mill
suffered deficit the first year OF ita
existence. The Homebuilders Associa-
ton Is now practically imperative from
lack Of finances. The home building
programme, launched under an imprac-
tical manager. was In existence FOR
months before a bookkeeping system
was installed. Fifty-four houses have
been completed but because of the fall
ure to maintain a cost system from the
State no contracts have yet been signed
with builders OF homes.
Cost Of these homes, according to the
present manager, will run 2o per cent
above the verbal estimates given the
prospective home builders when the
State began its building programme. An
initiated law took away from the Bank
of North Dakota several million dollars

That disbursements for schools

stitute IS per cent of all public
expenditures and show the greatest
increase in the last two years, is
the statement of the Tax Commits.
sion in bulletin made public this
week. In comparison to this the
commission states that the ex-
penditures for general government
have decreased since 1918 when it
was II per cent of the total ex
penditures to the low point of 6. g
per cent for the year 1920.
Disbursements for 1920 were
SIP 76S,9 Io, which means an in
crease of SO per cent Over 1918
when the total was $50, 7IS,954.
The receipts of the state have not
been increased as fast as the dis
bursements. The total receipts OF
the state from all divisions in 1920
were SII9, 274I36, which was an
increase of 28,3 per cent over 1913
when the receipts were 500, 95o,793
Cities are shown to be by far
the most expensive units of govern
ment, while they contain only
so per cent of the population and
about AZ per cent of the taxable
wealth of the state, their aggregate
expenditure, exclusive of schools,
exceeds the expenditure of the state
and the II counties. As the total
expenditures OF the state constitute
only IA per cent of the expenditures
of all civil divisions, and 50 per
cent of all expenditures are under
the control of the counties and
local districts, it is clear as pointed
out in former bulletins that any
material reduction in the cost of
government must begin at home.
Taxes still lead in bringing in

debtedness, $r6,75L658; and other
receipts were S755,965, bringing
the grand total up TO SII9, 1876.

Same Old Argument.

The coal miners have informed
Secretary of Labor Davis that they
cannot consider any wage reduc-
tons and that when their present
contracts with the operators expire
next spring they will probably ask
for further increases. They base
their position on the fact that be
cause of the lack of steady employ
ment the miners today cannot
make a living at the wage rate they
now receive" The fact is pro-
baby true, but it does not follow
that miners wages are too low.
They would find that another raise
would make it still more difficult
to make a living, rather than easier.
Their only hope, if they but knew
it, lies in Il lowering of wages with
consequent stimulation of the coal
market and higher return to them.
The condition Of the coal miners
has a close parallel in the expert
ence OF the railroads. Rail rates
have been raised to such a point
that shippers refuse to patronize
the roads. and the consequence is
that revenues have fallen off.
There is a point in the scale of
miners wages, as well as in rail-
roads rates, where further in
creases mean loss Of income. That
fact will sometime be realized by
the coal workers, as well as other
wage earners, but until then the
people will have to bear the burden
Of high fuel prices.

Labor Day.

1t is rather pity that we do not
make more of our annual celebra-
tion of Labor Day in this country
for we have constantly before us
such wonderful results of labor How
little would our wonderful cities
amount to were it not for the labor
er. Every brick aud cement block
has found its place through the
laborer's skill. The thousands of
miles of railroad that span our land
certainly would not be there were it
not for the men on the section gang
Yet in spite of all that labor has
done and is doing for this country
Labor Day to many people is merely
a holiday for good time. We don t
want it to be serious time by any
means, but in newspapers or by
means of public speeches and in
many other ways people should br
made TO appreciate more the dignity
of labor
a greater appreciation OF the re-
suits Of labor should certainly make
the laboring man more contented
with his lot He should, in fact, BE-
proud to be numbered among the
creators and upbuilders Of this glor-
ious country
The hard hearted capitalist is a
ighre in public life that is rapidly
becoming extinct. but If the few
who remain could be induced to feel
the proper respect for labor, then
strike leaders aud trade unions
would shortly lind themselves out of
business.
Let us try and remember that
Labor Day is not dedicated solely fol
the purpose OF a good time, or Of
drinking two much moon shine" and
home brew" but that it is dedicated
to tue dignity Of laIar. the results Of
which make our country what it IT,
t0day-the best country in the world
