'EER WILL REMAIN AN AMERICAN

Mr.. Pellew came TO America IN the
EOS of the last century. In New YORK
he met and married Eliza jay, daugh-
ter of Judge William Jay and grand
daughter Of John Jay, the famous
chief Justice of the United States.
They returned to England, where their
son was born. In 1868 Mrs. Pellew
died.
In 1873, Mfr. Pcllew again came to
AMERICA and. married her sister, Au-
gusta Jay, who remained his constant
companion until her death. Marriage
to deceased wife's sister was then
against the law in England, and Mr..
Pellew's marriage would not have been
recognized there as legal. Consequent
ly he decided to remain in the United
states, took out citizenship papers and
cut virtually all the ties that bound
him to his native land.
When Mr.. .psllew wrted in America
in 1873 the country was in the throes
of a financial panic. He started RELIEF

The AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

A meeting was held last week in
Bismarck at which the members of
the state highway commission and the
legislative committee Of the good
roads association went over proposed
good roads legislation which will be
submitted to the next legislature
which convenes in January.
The Record is not entirely familiar
with all the details of the proposed
laws. A constitutional amendment is
to be sumbitted to the legislature
setting out the fundamentals Of the
new plan If passed by the legislature
It will then be submitted to the peo-
pie at the next statewide election.
A couple of companion laws will also
be submitted to the legislature pro-
viding for a slight increase Of the
tax on automobiles, and providing that
such tax will be used to support Of
the work of the new commission. 1t
is planned to provide for gradual
repayment of money expended by
,tounties on standardized roads. II
will also provide for trunk high.
way system, patterned somewhat or
plans adopted in other states.
It is safe to say that ninety pc,
Emmons County record., 1922-11-30

cent Of the taxpayers are in favor
Of an efficient good roads program.
The ever increasing use Of trucks and
automobiles in hauling require the
proper kind Of roads. The road
building system in North Dakota has
never been satisfactory. When the
time comes to adopt plan, there will
no doubt be divergence Of opinion
on the details Of any. proposed plan.
However, the taxpayers will be main
ly interested in the adoption Of .
plan that will get results without the
unnecessary overhead charge that has
been experienced in the past. The
Federal government provides a con-
siderable amount each year for road
building, and the state laws will have
to conform to the requirements Of the
Federal laws.

Some time ago the Record called at
tention to the violation Of the corrupt
practices act on the part Of our
competitor wherein one of the officials
of the newspaper company promised
the German-spesking voters that, If
they would stick together and elect
that paper the official paper Of the
county, the management Of the news
paper would promise to establish a
German newspaper for them. Over
in Ransom county, similar situation
has arisen. The Lisbon Free Press
was elected over the Ende1lin Inde-
pendent. The successful candidate is
said to have promised the voters prior
to election that, should it be elected.
it would see that all persons whose
names appeared in the tax-list, would
receive a copy Of the paper containing
such list. Now, the losing newspaper
has brought contest to prevent the
successful paper from acting because
of this alleged violation Of the cor
rupt practice act. The proposed con-
test on the part of the losing news
paper in this county, in our opinion.
will fizzle out, not alone because they
will never be able to disfl anchise the
voters of any precinct in the county,
but for the further reason that the
losing newspaper itself violated the
provisions Of the corrupt practice act.
The proposed contest in this county is
undoubtedly meant to let the finan-
cial hackers Of our competitor down
gradually, and to slip the unsuccessful
candidate for official states attorney
through if possible. The friends Of
the Record need not worry about the
results even though the contest is
brought.

Taxation for education is one Of the
main items, and still one Of the items
which all taxpayers should most will
ingly pay. An educated people means
a prosperous and contented people.
An ignorant people endangers free
government. The people Of this ma
tion have suffered in the past because
Of illiteracy. Proper school facili-
ties must be provided, and steps must
be taken to enforce compulsory school
education. During his term Of Office
in this county, States Attorney Cow
entry has made great step forward
in this matter. While it has brought
him considerable individual unpopu-
larity, the welfare Of the 1eople Of
the county generally has been best
served by his firm stand. The law
provides that the states attorney shall
see that the compulsory school laws
are enforced. It also gives him the
power to grant permission to keep
children out Of school in exceptional
cases. When Mr.. Coventry took Of
fee, it was found that his predecessor
had taken advantage Of that provision
to grant Wholesale permission to keep
children out Of school. It was good
politics for the former official, but
poor business for the children thus
deprived Of an education. In most
instances, the children excused were
the ones most needing the education.
If our schools are kept up to
standard and the compulsory educa-
ton law enforced, another generation
should find most Of our citizens able
to at least vote their own ballots.

ate a good deal Of our court work,

C. C. Converse, state tax COM
missioner, recently addressed the state
teachers convention at Fargo relative
to taxation in this state and the cost
of schools, roads and bridges and gen.
eral governmental expenditures. Mr..
Converse held that just about one
half Of all taxes 60 directly or indi-
rectly to the upkeep Of the schools. His
figures are as follows:
Gen. government, including
soldiers bonus and penal
institutions ...... ......34.6 .64
Roads and bridges ....... IL. 20
Education ...... .........6O.1S
Mr.. Converse holds that two seri-
GUS mistakes have been, made in the
past. First, many new buildings
have been constructed at a high cost
for various state educational institu-
tions which should have been built
through a bond issue rather than by
direct appropriation. Second, the
soldiers bonus should have been taken
care of by bond issue instead Of a
mill tax. Both contentious have a
great deal of merit. A direct levy
for these things add a heavy addi-
tional tax burden at this time, while
a bond issue would allow for the same
results with much more
gradual payment, and a less
immediate load for the taxpayer.
In the case Of soldiers bonus, it
would allow for prompt payment Of
all claims, instead of causing many
ex-service men to wait years for their
money, while others have been paid
promptly. At every state convention
of the Legion, the Record man has
