BANKERS FIGHT N

II is reported that the /. ". IA. Ne
call and initiative laws petitions are
circulated in the most part by bank
ers, are to q large extent signed by
officers and employees of banks and
by people who evidently cannot read

number Of signatures made with an

understand English well and ask them
if they know they are signing Cow

This act Of the reactionary bankers
taken together with the declaration of
war promulgated by the North Da-
kota bankers association on the Farm
er-Labor administration and the in
dustrial program brings one of the
main issues in this state and all 9th
ers out into the open where all can
clearly see it, and that issue is this:
Are the sovereign people a narrow
minded little oligarchy made up Of re-
dictionary bankers and their satellites
going to rule this state and nation?

JUST ASKING NEsTOs

r. A.. Nestos says men Of the type
of mentality Of Cahill and Totten
should be busted from the board Of
administration.
Cahill and Totten as members Of
the board Of administration ousted q
politician, and who had nearly reached
his dotage from the presidency Of the
state training school at Mandan and
appointed instead Capt. McClelland, a
man who had been prominent in ju-
veniel redemptive work In New York
City. Will Nestos tell us what is
wrong with that appointment?
Cahill and Totten, as members Of
the board Of administration appointed
L. H. Beeler to the vacancy in the
presidency Of the Minot normal. viii
Mr.. Nestos tell US what is the matter
with DR.. Beeler?
And while we are on the subject Of
the Minot Normal the farmers Of the
northwestern part Of the state, who
expect to send their children to that
institution are asking Nestos, who is
so anxious to clean the rottenness
in Minot SO that they may feel safe
in sending thase daughters there?-

The name Of r. "A. Nestos a ppears
as superintendent of the Sunday
School in one Of the prominent church
es Of Minot, says the Ward County
Farmers Press.
A prominent official, an appointee
Of the law enforcement department of
the state, and a resident Of this city,
recently made the statement, before
= gathering Of women interested in So
cial uplift, that an average of n girl,
every day in the year "goes wrong
In Minot. We ssum that the official
knew what he was talking about.
The two statements above made
would have no special significance
were they not coupled together by the
fact that r. A.. Nestos is assistant
states attorney for Ward county and
therefore an official sworn to enforce
the law. Among the most vital Of
those laws are the ones providing for
the punishment Of moral degenerates
and law violators that contribute to-
ward the ruin Of innocent school girls.
Behold, IN the one hand, Nestos ex-
pating on the beauties Of the teach
ings of the immortal Nazerene to the
pure and blalneless young people be-
fore him; and behold on the other the
ruined lives blasted forever because in
their simplicity they knew not how to
Withstand the lures of surroundings
that would not exist had we men Of
q different type from Nestos, and his
chief, in the states attorneys office.
Minot did not gain the notoriety it
has acquired in the last ten years be-
cause the law was lacking in remedies
for the evils which has arisen; two
years ago the Nonpartisans enacted
q Of the most comprehensive laws
governing the crime of immortality
now upon the statutes Of any state in
the Union. It is chapter 120 Of the
1919 laws and was known as Senate
Bill Nc. 81. Under this law there is
not left the slightest foundation for
q plea, on the part of any public Of
AASA0AS AAlot A0 AS I0GA1lS LII pO"OI W
end conditions foisted upon the COM
munity by moral lepers.
How does Nestos square his preach
ing in the Sunday School class with
his performance as a public official ?
Is his Christianity as meaningless to
him as his oath as a public official
seems to be? Is not the JUNCTION which
flows from his lips on Sunday embit-
tered by the NORWOOD Of poverty of
performance the other six days in the
week? Does his service to society as
teacher in Sunday School overshadow
and over balance his failure in serv-
ing society as a public official that
it gives him a right to go about the
state and by innuendo charge a ma
jority Of the people with permitting
immortality and other ~rottenness in
their schools?
Will Nestos please answer?-The

TEX RICHARD SOLVES
HIGH COST OF FIGHT

According to tho exact figures and as

seems as though Tex Richard, Amer

lily solved the high cost Of the hshtinS'

tended paying prices for seats ranging

probably be conducted at loss on this
basis II admission. but nevertheless
Mr.. Richard announced that the receipts
were no less than $4,000.
Richards success in staging bouts at
reasonable prices appears to have
solved the problem OF the high cost OF
boxing. There should be an immediate
slump IN the war purses that have been
handed to champions and near cham
pionS.
There is no reason for the extrava-
CANT sums that have been paid 10 box
crs. and if the other promoters will fol-
low the example OF the famous boxing
promoter the game will soon be on
rational basis.
