1t is a realization of these facts that
causes the occasional petering out of

the fact that many of them are worked

War Veterans Invited.

A special invitation to the world
war veterans to attend the night show
of the spectacular fireworks at the
Isanti County fair, on September %,
% and "a, at Cambridge has been ex-
tended by Secretary L. M. Peterson.
The fireworks display, said to be
one of the most elaborate of it's kind
ever produced in the state, contains
many explosive features taken from
experiments made during the world
war.
Rockets and bombs used for night
signaling in the trenches, colored
lights for communication between ar
tillery and infantry and similar ap-
planes will be included in the fea-
lures shown during the evening en-
tertainments at the fair, also huge
bombs will be fired.
Thursday evening will be featured
the "Seige of the Dardanelles," the
terrific engagement between the
French and English battleships and
the German cruisers and the lombard
ment of the Turkish forts in the ia
nous straits of Dardanelles will be
realistically pictured.
For Friday and Saturday nights
there will be an entire change of pro-
gram-the display will last nearly two
hours. 1t will comprise a complete
evening show in itself and will be pro-
duced by expert operators from the
Thearle Duffield Co. of Chicago.

"Farmer-Owned" Papers.


The Norman County Herald tells
of the Polk County Leader, a nom
partisan league paper published at
Crookston, advertised to be sold at
sheriff's sale on August 9th, to salts
fy mortgage of $4,000. The
mortgage is held by A. Crawford and
A. Eglcy, former owners of the pa
per. The unwillingness of the farmer
stockholders to continue digging up
more cash to keep the paper running
is claimed to be the cause.
The Polk County Leader is but one
out of several nonpartisan league pa
pers to pass out of existence, within
comparatively short time, for lack
Of support. Those who put up the
money for their establishment soon
discover that hiring somebody to give
vent to a lot Of vituperation about
this and that condition gets them moth
ing worth paying for. Then, left to
shift for themselves some Of them
wait and die, and nobody notices the
difference except those VINO in good
faith put up the money, in expectation
Of results which failed to materialize.
A great deal Of buncome is heard
about farmer-owned papers being
willing and able to do more for the
farmers than papers which are not
farmer-owned. It does not take long
for farmers to find out that there is
nothing to this. So far as country
papers are concerned, anyone who

increased This suggestion will strike
the army OF small income tax payers
as startling. But the fact is 1t in
seriously discussed the alternative
in cAsc tho sales tax should fail.
The other answer is the form of
taxation called tho sales tax or the
turn over tax. This tax. in its smp-
lest form-in tho form in which
Senate Smoot of Utah introduced 1t
provides for a fiat tax of per cent
on "ali goods. wares. or merchandise
sold" Even IN the simple form TO
which Senator Smoot has tried to re-
ducc the idea, there arc several cx-
copuons or exemptions. one is that
a merchant or other person whose
total gross sale aro under $4,000 a
year. should be exempt This would
leave most farmers FREQ of the tax.
Another exemption is that goods sold
for export should not be taxed.
How this new proposal will fare in
Congress cannot be forctold, Senator
Smoot is the chief advocate of 1t. and
1t is no secret that even some of his
associates on tho finance committee
do not share his conviction. the rca-
sons animafing these doubtcrs have
little to do with tho merits of tho
tax. or with its practical effective
ness. Tho hesitation is based on
doubts whether IL can be put thru
Congress and fears lest IL should turn
out to be so unpopular as 20 hurt the
Republican party.
Undoubtedly, among tho rank and
file of Congress. and especially of the
Lower House, there will be much op-
position. This opposition is supposed
