RETURNS

The Herald hoped and promised to give the official
election returns in this issue but the T1dland, Patch, Wen
rich outfit at the one time county seat made 1t Impossible
for us to fulfill that promise.
The board of county commissioners, by process OF law,
automatically becomes the official canvass1ng board,
whose duty it is to count the returns and declare the result
This a majority of the board absolutely refused to do,
counting only such precincts as they saw tit and refusing
TO count such precincts as they saw fit. This is a wide de-
parture from every known law, rule or precedent and ac-
cording to the best authority obtainable wholly outside
the Jurisdiction of the canvasslng board and directly op-
posed to the statute. But what do I1dland and Patch care
about law?
Had there been no county seat election in this county
it is safe to say that these men would have counted the
three precincts they so deliberately threw out without
question. They know, as everyone at all familiar with
the proceedings knows, that they cannot make such rank
violations of law stand the test OF a court trial. The WhOle
object of this Tidland-P combination is to cause as
much DELAY as possible and throw additional financial
burden upon the taxpayers of the county who voted to
locate the permanent county seat at Wolf Point. They are
doing their worst for the county at large, for the self
respecting residents of Poplar and for themselves.
The law in regard to the duties of the canvassing board
is very clear, simple and specific. It's application would
readily be understood by a ten year old child, yet Iidland
and Patch deliberately knowingly and Intentionally NO.
late its provisions and put up a bluff that they hope to
get away with. It's a forlorn hope. Quoting from the de-
cision of the supreme court:
"The duties of a county canvasSlng board are
ministerial, and such board has no authority to
exclude the returns of an election precinct, regu-
larly made, upon the ground that the voting was
shown by afidavits to be illegal, and having
done so may be compelled by mandamus to can
VaSS such returns.
Who are Bill Tidland and Jack Patch that they as

disfranchise voters scattered permiscuously over the
county ? They are hired and paid servants OF the tax
PAYERS who will insist that their right of franchise be not
tempered with.

The real Wolf Point citizen has vision; he is not lack
ing in progressiveness; he is ready to cooperate with the
Commercial Club in what it seeks to accomplish for the
u~pbuilding of the city in which he lives; he will attend
public gatherings in which civic movement are to be dis
cussed and not confine his criticisms to cigar stores and
street corners. Seldom are such criticisms followed by
constructive suggestions.
AS President Moore has said, "The men in the middle
of the whirlpool don't always see what is going on around
them. The perspective of the man on the side line is often
much better than the perspective of the individuals who
are playing the game.
Tell us what you think should be done. Then you, too,
will help play the game.
Every city has its whimpers, ~weakings and traitors.
They do not help build up but write letters to out-of-town
newspapers telling of the dirt and crime which they think
they see. These literary scavengers never see anything
beautiful or enobling in their rounds, only what is IN the
garbage heap. Their minds are unbalanced.
The Commercial Club as an organization intends to
"carry on" Civilization is organization. 1t advances in
proportion as peoplelearn to act in groups.

A LOST

Among the r~egretable things connected with the oper-
atoms of the canvassing board is the fact that Commits
sioner Weinrich should have seen fit to show the yellow
streak and absent himself from the meeting. lie may
have been laboring under the impression that it was good
politics but the fact of the matter is that he passed up a
golden opportunity to make himself solid with a big ma
jority Of the Roosevelt county voters. Nobody has much
respect for, or confidence in, a buckpasser.

STARTLING NEWS

The state examiners report has been made of record
in the office of the county clerk and recorder. The Poplar
Standard of last week says so in its report of the proceed
ings of the board of county commissioners; 1t took a lot
of nerve to hold out on the public this long but subsequent
events have proven that the Patch, Weinrich, Tidiand
combination have galvanized nerves and are deaf, dumb
and blind when it comes to points of law or square
shooting.
If County Treasurer Tidland, that benevolent distri-
butor of county funds, hasn't the common decency, or
courtesy, to at least listen to the proceedings going on
during a session of the canvassing board, on which he was
acting officially, he should and probably will be made to
listen to something less pleasing.
The self respecting, decent people of Poplar are not up
holding the crooked, undetermined methods employed by
the Patch Tidland-W einrich combination. Funds for
their crooked campaign are daily becoming harder to
raise. One prominent Poplar business man said: Not
another dime will | dig up for those birds"
-O-
The way of the transgressor is hard. This applies to
the civil, criminal and moral law. Considering every
thing, certain members of the board of canvassers OF
county are entitled to and no doubt will find
some hard Shedding before they extracate themselves
from the hole they deliberately stepped into Monday

DELINQUENT PROPERTY
TAX LIST DECREASES,
ACCORDING TO REPORT

A considerable decrease in the
number of pieces of real estate to be
sold for taxes is seen this year in the
city of Richmond, as compared with
last year, according to County Treas
urer Thomas Ali. The delinquent tax
list for those who have failed to pay
in the past year, has just been pub
lished for the first time.
These lists are published three
times before the property is sold for
taxes. Last year, Richmond had 11J
pieces of real estate to offer for sale
after the list had been published tie
third time. This year the list starts
with only 100 and this number is sure
to grew less with each publication.
Delinquent taxes for various town
ships this year and the amount de-
linquent last year follows: Boston,
1921, S264.35; 1922, $76.S3; Greene,
1921, 1854; 1922, S34952.
Milton, 1921, s69.SS; 1922, sS0.43.
Some townships which had delin-
quent taxes last year have their taxes
all paid up this year. Others which
had no delinquencies last year, are
behind this year.
