ABOUT THE PENITENTIARY

Three weeks ago Editor Sam Will
son quit whispering. One could plainly
see that he was under a terrific ment-
al strain.
Being by nature inclined to take an
interest in the welfare of our neigh
bors, having learned the principles 81
good fellowship by riding the goat al
our initiation into two lodges, we were
about to ask him if the incubation o1
the Rhode Island Reds was getting
defective, when suddenly the publica
tion of the last number of the Advo
cate gave US the key to Sam Wilson's
worries and tribulations. AS we sus.
pected, something was Matching al.
right but the Matching that worried
him so much was not taking place in
chicken coup but in the mental in.
cubator he carrier over his shoulders
Sam was framing against L. L. Stair
Warden of the Penitentiary something
destined to make the blindfolds fall
from the eyes of the few Nonparti-
sans still left in Bottineau County.
Sans mind was in travail for ten
days and ten nights without recess
when Lo! the off spring of his brain
burst into the light of day.
AS could be expected the thing was
long on legs but short on sense. After
being properly nursed and dressed by
Printer Glace, it was presented to the
Advocate readers in a two column ed
itorial. League members if you did not
read it you ought to. Not for the sake
of information-there is none-but to
get an inkling on the qualification of
the man appointed by Jake Gorder to
keep the torch of political truth burn
ing before the eyes of Bottineau coun-
ty farmers.
A great diplomat once declared
that language was made to conceal
thought, but the Advocate editor en-
ployed it to disguise an intelligent
vacuum. He can use more language to
say less than any other editor in the
State of North Dakota. In this partic-
ular he is in class by himself for
as a waste of space his long prepared
editorial was almost a masterpiece.
1t my twelve-year old boy could not
say more in ten lines than the Advo-
cate editor said in those two long col
umns would refuse to father him.
Sam stated, f'The reduction of op-
Grating expenses at the pen is due not
to Mr.. Stairs efficiency, but to a
garbling of the facts for the sake of
propaganda" What proof of the above
does he offer in two columns-none-
but he Immediately proceeds to garble
facts by stating ut is certainty that
sixty more prisoners without pay can
produce more twine and can reduce
the per capita cost of maintenance"
Far from being certainty the above
is Misrepresentation of facts. Any
one who has visited the twine plant,
and Sam was not there as State Ex-
aminer years ago, knows that there
is just so many machines spinning and
getting the twine ready for market.
Therefore the number of prisoners
working at the plant is limited, fact
which explains why an increase in the
number of prisoners does not neces-
sarily mean proportionate increase
in the production Of twine. That pro-
duction is limited to the capacity of
the plant at it's full capacity. Why is
it then that the same plant produced
that much more twine now than here
tofore. IL L. L. Stair is not entitled to
any credit who deserves IL? Your tutor
