It has been some time since Bro.
Stewart has prated about the alleged
"slop the hogs" story-until last
week. He brought it out again,
dressed in its Sunday best, end used
it to keep the public from wondering
why the Bank of North Dakota can't
or won't honor checks drawn from it's
checking account.
The league organ has new system
now. 1t carries date line on it's ar
ticles. At least, its roast of the
county commissioners last week was
dated. Some readers may wonder
why. The explanation would prob
ably be easy if one could see the
original Of the article. 1t is likely
that George Lynn's name would be
found at the end of. it,.
Considerable space is devoted to
roasting Commissioner duHeaume for
collecting $3.50 from the county which
he paid to John Bartu for securing
names on a bridge petition. A gen.
eral dissertation on bridge-building
in general is carried on. Also, the
Farmers State Bank of Hazeiton re-
ceives a brick-bat. Fun is poked at
certain personal characteristics of
Mr.. duHeaume. And, generally
speaking, the writer of the article
wakes furious at what he terms was
a slap at the people of the First Com
missioner's District. Let US see:
First of all, Commissioner du
Heaume has repaid the $3.50 which
Attorney Lynn holds was technically
an improper charge against the coun-
ty. Under no set of facts did MIR.
duHeaume profit from the transac-
ton. It was simply an effort to give
service to the people of his district.
He has personally stood the loss of
So. 80 so that Mr.. Lynn's feelings
need not be ruffled. Now, will MIR.
Lynn repay the county several hun
dred dollars squandered by his sense
less lawsuit against the Record man
at the. last term of court. Some
thirty jurymen were held two days,
as well as court reporter, bailiffs, etc.,
while Mr.. L. made futile attempt
to clean up couple of hundred bucks
at our expense.
If the bodybuilding operations
were improper, why did Mr.. Lynn as
states attorney fail to take some ac-
ton to head off the performance while
he was states attorney? And, then,
too, if Commissioner duHeaume made
a slip on the bill for $3.50, he certain
ly tried to make it many times right
when he fought the $4,000 moving
picture business the county has en-
gagged in.
But the whole outburst from EN-
mons county's former states attorney
is merely politics. His sudden deep
interest in the "dear farmers" is adj
ditional politics. And, up to date,
some of his antics have been dear pol
tiles.
There has been several columns de-
voted to evading the issue in this COM
missioner business. The facts are as
follows:
Ben Matthews was illegally holding
the Office of commissioner from the
time he moved out of his district.
Our laws say 80 plainly and dis
tinctly in more than one place.
Matthews could easily have resigned
and allowed his place to be filled at

Those Legion boys down in Kansas
are sure proving to be hummers when
it comes to keeping on the trail of
undesirable citizens. Townley has
had to call for reinforcemcnts of

have a right to make rules for its

the last election. He and Geo. Lynn
chose to bluff it-through." Matthews
knew he was disqualified. Lynn
knew it, too. Even VIM. Lemke, the
Fleague attorney general, wouldn't fur
nish an opinion otherwise. So what
did these friends of the farmer" do?
They circulated petitions requesting
! that Matthews be retained, and ran a
little joker in the petition using T.
E. Lawler, president of the league
newspaper, as a substitute. Then,
they came before the commits sioners
and waxed enthusiastic about the
number who had signed petitions to
have "Lawler appointed. Brant
voted for him and so did McConville.
And it's a safe bet that Brant and
McConville would have been found
voting for him if all the signers had
been for some one else.
There were two candidates for the
position. One was Lacquer and
the other was not. The leaguers
voted fer the league candidate, and
the others voted for one who was not.
The Independents had one majority.
So Goughnour won, and they bring no

It wouldn't cost more than five times
that much to recall the county audi

The board cannot possibly write the
rules and working conditions of every
railroad in this country and adjust
them equitably to varying geograph-
teal. operating and social cond ,tions.
It rests entirely with the board to
determine whether this whole situa-
tion shall drift into chaos, and or
ierly procedure become impossible ex-
cept at the price Of railroad bank
ruptcy, financial shock and still wider
unemployment
The Labor Board can prevent this
catastrophe by declaring that the Ma
tionaI agreements, rules and working
conditions coming over from the war
period are terminated at once; that
the question of reasonable and eco
noInical rules and Working conditions
shall be remanded to negotiations be-
tween each carrier and Its own en-
ployees: and that as the basis for such
negotiations, the agreements, rules,
and working conditions in effect on
each railroad as of December, 81, 1917,
shall be re-established
If the board will do this, the Labor
Committee Of the Association of Rail-
way Executives will urge upon ev-
cry railroad company a party to De-
cision No. 2, that no proposal for
the reduction of basic wages shall be
made within the next succeeding nine
~ days. This will afford an Oppor-
tunity to gauge the economies which
can be accomplished through more
efficient rules and working conditions.
It also will afford additional time
in which to realize the benefits OF a
further decline in the cost OF living.
Relief imperative and Equitable
The course which we are recon-
mending is not only imperative but
equitable.
The War Labor Board declared that
the war period was an interregnum, to
be used neither. by employer nor en-
ployee for the purpose OF Detterlng
or Impairing the position OF either.
To perpetuate as the normal rules
and working conditions on the rail-
roads. the extraordinary provisions of
the war period is distinct violation
of oil PROMISES. The war has now
been over more than two years. Ine
time has come when, II the railways
are to be efficiently and economically
operated. in accordance with the pro-
visions Of the transportation act, nor
nal conditions Of employment and OF
working conditions must ne restored
