AN INCOMPLETE ABANDONMENT.

MI. ToWnley, as recently quoted as saying that
he is throughw with socialism, his abandonment Of the
cause with which he has been awide for nlanysyears..
seems to be decidedly incomplete. Immediately
upon being released from the jackson county, Min
nesota, jail, he betook himself to the platform, and
his first address delivered in Minneapolis was un-
der the auspices of the American Civil Liberties
Union, an organization which has been notorious;
tor its radical tendencies and for its strongly social
istic attitude. Among the individuals prominent with
this organization are Rodger Baldwin, Max East
man, Crystal Eastman, Morris Hillquit, Scott
Nearing, Robert M. Buck, VIM. Z. Foster, Frcdcr-
lex {. Howe and Rose Scheidemann.
All of these persons have been associated init
mately with socialism and communism, and have
added in every way possible to the spread of social
istlc propaganda. In some instances they have at
tempted to disguise the socialistic nature of the en-
terprise and organization with which they were as
ISOLATED: But in all cases the socialistic spirit was
there expressing itself in acts which frequently, were
directed against the very existence of the American
government and the continuance of the American
institutions These people had been allied con-
stantly with movements having for their purpose. the
destruction of all authority in all forms, save only
their authority which they themselves have en-
deavored to usurp.
MI. Townlcy finds it difficult to cut himself off
himself from socialism because the principles of So
cialism are interwoven'in his very fiber. 1t may be
that he is not to be blamed for his socialistic tenden-
cles, perhaps he. was born that way, but whether he
is to be blamed or not his advocacy, constant and
unrenittlng, of the doctrines of socialism cannot
commend him to the confidence of t~hosE~who be-
lievc IN orderly government in which all NAV par
,ticiPate on the basis of perfect equality and whose
authority all must respect.

NOW COMES MR., HASTINGS.

I J.. J. Hastings is to be brought back to North
Dakota for trial. He is wanted on the charge of EN-
bezzling money from the Scandinavian American
Bank of Fargo, of which for a few hectic weeks he
was vice president The charge is that without hav-
ing received authority from the officers of the bank
he caused a loan to be made to the Sisal Trust. of
which lie was one of the organizers and which. at
the time when the loan was made, had no corporate
existence. Hastings says that he was properly au-
thorized to make this loan. If he can prove that this
is a tact some other people then connected with the
bank may be invited to make explanations. There
must have been a peculiar conception of the func-
tons OF a bank as the guardian of the funds of the
people entrusted to its care which would authorize
the loaning of those funds to all Institution not vet
organized, on the recommendation of a man like
Hastings, whose general qualifications must have
been pretty well known to some, at least, of the men
who were supposed to be directing the affairs of the
Fargo bank. 81
Hastngs1an away from Seattle when he lear.
refuge IN a socialist stronghold in California and re.
sisted extradition on the ground that the steps taken
against him were wholly political in their nature.
Such a charge is absurd on its face. Hastings. is no
longer in politics in North Dakota. There is no ev-
ldence that he was cutting any figure as a politician
out west. He has no political reputation which can
be impaired by any steps which may be taken. And
1t he means that he is in danger of being railroaded
to prison he is paying a poor compliment to the state
which yielded him some very fat pickings when he
he will be tried it will be impossible for him, assist.
ed as he will be by resourceful and industrious coun-
sci, to find a jury of twelve men who will try his
case fairly on its merits. :.

MecuMBER AND THE LEAGUE:

1t is a little difficult for an outsider to keen
track OF the developments within the ranks of the
Nonpartisan league. In fact, it seemsto be difficult
Tor the leaguers themselves to keep in touch with
the rise and fall OF the various factions within, the
organization League leaders who were cheek bv
JoWl a few months ago are now searching the die
honary Tor cpithets to throw at each other. If one
were to believe all that these leaders and sub-lead-
e1s arc saying about each other he would come to
some very emphatic conclusions concerning the
whole outfit, and would need no assistance from in
dependent speakers or papers.
1t is a little interesting to note the chareeAin
certain Of the western league papers supposedly
shedlng with Mr.. Lemke and his particular group,
thafthe other league managers are trying to sell out
to Senator McCumber. That makes it look as if
there had been a switch in the McCumber situation.
as there was a time when the senator appeared to
be very friendly toward MI. Lemke, RECOGNIZING in
him the real head of the Republican party in North
Dakota notwithstanding MI. Lemke's regulation
OF Republican principles in favor of the tenets of
Socialism.
We take it that Mr.. McCumber does not care
particularly from which league faction he obtains
votes The main thing is to get them, and, as he
is particularly interested ip numbers, he nav be ex7
pected 10 seek friendly relations with that branch
OF the league leadership which he believes has the
strongest support among the league members. It
may be that he has concluded that, after all, the SUD-
pert Of the Town1ey branch is the more promising.
Yet there have been some occasions on which that
support has not been found effective, hence it IS
not surprising to learn that the senator is paving
st1ct attention to the condition of all the arrows in
bis quIver, to the end that if one fails he NAV still
nave 4 chance OF doing execution with the others.

WHEAT PRICE ADVANCING

During the past few days wheat prices have ad-
~zneed materially, following a general upward tend
emJ which has continued for several weeks The
comment which will be made on this situation in
many quarters IS that now that most of the wheat
m the country has passed out of the hands of the
1armers, the gamblers are forcing the price skyward
IN order that they may obtain fat profits.
There Is really no answer to this, or at least no
answer which will be convincing to those who make
this criticism Official records of wheat prices for
a quarter OF a century prove that, taking one year
with another, the farmer who has received the most
satisfactory price for his grain is the one who has
made it a practice to sell early in the fall The facts
have been published over and over again, and the
sources from which the information has been de-
rived arc open to the examination of any person in
ferested- Yet in spite of the facts the notion per-
slsts that the wheat spectators depress prices in
the fall and advance them in the spring. REGARDLESS
Of actual conditions, and that it is highly profitable
TOT the farmer. in nearly all cases, to hold his wheat
until spring.
When this state of mind exists it is scarcely
possible to convince those who share this opinion
that price changes are attributable in any p~articu-
tzr case to other than speculative influences. Never
theless, those who are looking for facts on which to
form opinions, instead of insisting on precouceived
opinions in defiance of facts. will recognize many
elements in the present situation which influence
wheat prices. One of these elements is the unfa-
vorable condition of winter wheat in this country.
g condition tor which no Spectator is responsible.
The winter crop has suffered seriously, and that
fact naturally indicates a lower yield than was in
prospect some time ago. Further, our surplus from
the last crop is not large, and foreign buyers are
recognizing this fact and are acting accordingly.
Another element, the effect of which cannot be
estimated with any accuracy, is the purchasing
power OF foreign peoples who have ordinarily been
large importers of wheat. AS the condition Of
these peoples improve, their demand for foreign
wheat will increase, and this is bound to have =
marked influence on our price It will be a long
time betorestofeign conditions are stable, hence we
may expect fluctuations for some time.

CITY WATER

The water which is supplied for domestic DUR
poses is like the weather in that when it is perfect
we takelt for granted and pay no attention to it, and
when there is anything the matter with it we raise
Cain.
The problem OF providing a city with >aa ade-
quate supply Of water, safe and suitable for all do.
mestic purposes, is one of constantly increasing diff
ticulty. The old days when it was safe to drink wa.
ter dipped from any stream are gone forever so far
as a very large part of this country is concerned.
The more dense the population becomes the greater
is the contamination Of the water, and even # there
were devised other means Of sewage, disposal than
that OF turning the waste into the streams, there
would still be sufficient contamination from surface
howage to render all streams in a moderately well
inhabited district unsafe.
The water problem in this section is complicat-
ed by the excessive amounts of mineral water found
in our streams. This does not render the water I'm
safe for use, but it does make it decidedly unpleas-
ant to use For this reason the water that is used
in Grand Forks IS treated for two purposes, first to
remove as much As possible of the mineral element,
"soften9ng' it, aud second to remove or destroy bac-
terra which are likely to produce disease.
On the whole the treatment Of the water since
tae present system was installed has been very sat,
isfactory. The water supplied in our homes is very
much softer, and therefore much better for ordinary
domestic purposes than the raw river water. It does
not compare with rain water nrsoftness, but that q
not feasible. The softening process is carried as far
as IS Practcaole under ordinary service conditions.
s'tot the safety OF the water, the examinations
which are made BY competent people at the ur1iyer-
|sity show that the absence of deleterious bacteria
IN nearly az foses approaches very closely to the
absolute. When, g IN the present case, the making
