purchase of $137 500 Bank of North
Dakota bonds and $5O0,OO0 mill and
elevator bonds. An option on 81 ,000,-
600 mill and elevator bonds to be is
sued later will be awarded to the same
company.
The Minnesota Loan and Trust
company offered SOL for 5 per cent
bank bonds and $108 for 51a per cent
mill and elevator bonds and will re-
ceive an option on additional mill and
elevator bonds at the same price.
This bid was found to be the best,
after the various methods of invest
ment houses in submitting bids were
reconciled and conditions considered.
This shows how The I. V. A state
administration is being forced to
carry out the financing Of the farmers
program, and that the Nonpartisan
league built permanently in North Da-
kota. While Governor Nestos tours
the country knocking the League, his
administration is at the same time
proceeding with the League program.
Action was reserved by the indus
trial commission on bids presented for
$4 100000 farm loan bonds of the
Bank of North Dakota.
Bids were received from financial
houses of Minneapolis, New York, Gin
cinnati and Toledo. Five bids in all
ranged from par to the high point of
the successful bidder.
r The fact that the bonds are SELL
ing at premium proves the. stories
about the bankruptcy Of North Dako-
ia, caused by farmer rule, are false.
A joint bid submitted by R. G. Grant
& Co., New York, and L. R. Ballinger
& Co., Cincinnati, was conditioned
with statement that if there was any
change in the North Dakota state ad-
ministration, which, in the opinion of
the bond company, affected the mar
reliability of the bonds, the companies
reserved the right to withdraw the
4 offer. This shows the intimidation
still resorted to by the financial COM
bination. .'-~

Uncommon Sense
Calling Out the Reserves
BY JOHN BLAKE

TT IS poorly organized police force
that cannot instantly dispatch con-
siderable number of men to the scen2
OF riot or control gathering crowds
in any part of q city.
Police forces are regulated with an
eye to maintaining reserve supply.
TROUBLE unfortunately cannot be
l. foreseen. There must be men to
cope with 1t or it may grow into
catastrophe.
\ police force with just sufficient men
70 rpatrOl and detective duty would
prove useless at the first riot call The
instant patrolmen had to leave their
beats to put down the riot, trouble
which their presence keeps subdued.
would break out on the beats.
This principle applies to armies and
navieS, and it applies equally to the lit
tie organization that is known as a
human being.
The man who has just sufficient
strength for his daily work fails when
that work is doubled or trebled by un-
forcsecn emergency.
The man who has just enough will
power to drive himself to his task every
day and keep himself there from 8 to !.
Of life, which come to everybOd uniu-
vited and unexpected.
! TT IS reserve force which enables men
l. to show when opportunity comeg that
! they are capable of doing bigger things
| than they have been doing.
1t is stores of energy, untapped and
unused, that carry them through the
crises of their lives and leaves them
stronger and more fit when the crises
have passed.
Unless one steadily cultivates the
ability dot more than he is doing. to
carry more responsibility, to bear IN
under more punishment, he might as
well make up his mind to fall back TO
the tail Of the procession.
He will certainly never get a place
anywhere near the head of 1t.
! IF HE has the reserves he can call
L them out when the need arises, as it
is certain to do.
II he, has 50 neglected the buildipr
up of his organization that no reserves
are on call he will cut a sorrow figure
when he has to face real test.
