tional banks on the security of govern
ment bonds only, at an annual tax OF
one-half TO one per cent on 2 per cent
bonds and / per cent per annum on
bonds bearing a higher rate of inter
est. -
Under the federal reserve act OF
1913, the government issues to the
federal reserve banks, without secur-
ity, as fiscal agents, similar obliga-
lions Of the government-federal re-
serve notes-free of interest and only
a nominal franchise tax, in revenue,
very much less than that derived from
the national bank tax. Then the fed
eral reserve banks loan to the same
member national banks, on the secur-
ity of government bonds at a discount
rate of 5 per cent at present, but has
been higher.
Our government pays more than
double the rate of interest IN the
bonds, and the member banks pay at
present 10 times as much interest on
tax as they do when dealing directly
with the United States treasurer. In
the end this extra interest on the
currency must be paid by the people
in interest and taxes.
Again it is argued that issue of
paper money will raise the prices and
the first to suffer are the common peo-
pie, who experience the high cost of
living. Germany whose paper mark
is worth about one-half of one per
cent in gold at present is given as an
example. 1t is true. Why? Because
Steines, the. greatest money man of
Germany is controlling the money
market. E ~
Do you know that in the years of
the Civil War that gold hid itself in
secret places in the ground, and that
there We're only 5000, 000, 900 of gold
IN evidence in control of Wall Street,
and that the first $50, ZOO, 900 of green
backs that YER issued in 1861 read
''This dollar shall be receivable for all
debts, both public and private" was
worth 100 cents on the dollar through
the war. Why was it so? Because
our whole people said so and it, was
inscribed on the dollar. The next is
u Wall Street controlled in the in
terest of a small per cent of the people
of that day and the issue of $3.50, O00,-
600 read: "This shall be received for
all debts except imports and duties''
which deprecated it's value down to
about 3S cents on the dollar.
Again in the Bryan silver campaign
there was only $4,000, 900, 900 of both
gold and silver and there were s4O.-
100000 of worlds debts; and when
silver was taken away from the peo-
pie as a redemption money it left only
$4,000, 900 900 of gold to redeem $40
000,000,000 of worlds debts. After
that occurred every mortgage and
every note was drawn payable in
gold" and the interest went way up.
Would it not be better to establish
a medium of exchange that shall re-
present the physical, commercial and
moral froces of our country. Instead
of advocating "a paper dollar repre-
senting mythical bushels of corn or
bales of cotton" why not issue real
money on the security of the stored
nonperishable products of labor, a
security that the federal reserve banks
now consider to be of the best.

NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
KNOCKS NORTH DAKOTA

An example of the frantic fear with
which the North Dakota program is
viewed, by Big Business interests out.
side the state is shown by the article
contained in Feb. 18th issue of the
National Republican, a political news
paper published at Washington, D. C
and circulating in most states in the
Union. The article in question deals
with the so-called Closes" of North
Dakota Industrial Program, as shown
by Lewis F. Crawford, Sec. of the new
industrial commission. Great stress is
laid upon Nh. Crawford's declaration
that "every phase Of the program in
dicates a loss," and an attempt is
made to show the hopelessness of all
such "socialistic" practices. Of course
Mr.. Crawford is legally bound to do
all in his power to further the pro-
gram, in his position of Secretary OF
the Industrial Commission, and his ar
ticle relating to the so-called Closes
of the program, was doubtless written
only as a measure of political propa-
ganda to dismredit the League Admin.
~istration and safeguard his w pc.
sition. Mr.. Crawford is no doubt &C.
tually doing all in his power to fur.
Their the industrial program, but it il
to be regretted that our state officials
find it necessary to stoop to methods
which rebound to the eternal discredi'
of our state, in order to secure thei1
own political preference. Mr.. Craw.
ford's article, which was intended only
for the voters of the state, has beer
made use of by hostile influence with.
out the state, and a man in Nh. Craw.
ford's position ought to have known
it would be. North Dakota has re-
ceived enough adverse publicity al
the hands of her own citizens during
the last four years, it is time a little
more regard was being shown for the
interests of the people.

CONSERVATISM" IN


The New Industrial Commission
have announced a. policy of "Conser-
vatisrn" in the making of future farm
loans by the Bank of North Dakota.
This Is an implication that the Form
er Industrial Commission did not use
good judgment in appraising land for
loans, and that the loans made in a
number of eases were excessive. In
deed the Secretary of the Industrial
Commission has upon more than one
occasion attempted to show favortisu1
and indiscrtion On the part of the old
Industrial commission. While not
wishing 10 criticise the New Indugtri-
al Commission for their policy of
Conservatism, we wish to- point out
that the Industrial Program was de-
signed primarily for the relief of the
farmers, most of the farmers who
need relief live in the western part Of
the state. In view of the fact that
they have suffered five continuous
crop failures, and in consideration of
the fact that the value of farm land
has dropped considerably in the last
year, due to the "defIation" process
imposed on the farmers of Big Bust
we IRE willing to admit that q
conservative farm loan would not ad-
vance very much money TO the aver
are western North Dakota Farmer.
II fact II ID doubtful IL such q loan
would be sufficient to d OF the
present Indebtedness owed By these
Farmers on their farms, and thus rive

THE BALANCE OF POWER

A convention has just been held in
Bismarck, the purpose of that conven-
ton was to determine the attitude of
the people of the Central and South
western part of the state toward the
present policy Of the State Executive
Committee, and toward the Balance of
power idea. 49,,
The Balance of Power, however, is
something that must be made the
business of every League voter be-
tween now and March %. 1t is GER
tain that it will be the greatest issue
for decision in the State Convention.
We do not wish to express our opinion
regarding it, but wish to call our read
ers attention to the outstanding fea-
lures of the plan. In the first place it
is based on the theory that the League
is financially unable to properly con-
duct the primary campaign In the
second place it relies upon the filing
for candidacy for state office of com
petent and capable men who may be
endorsed just prior to the Primary
election. Tn the contention that the
League organization is at present in
capacitated for lack of funds, the de-
tenders of the Balance of Power have
undeniab1y scored q hit. In the con-
tention that there will be plenty Of
able candidates in the field whom the
Leaguers may endorse at the proper
time, the opponents Of Nh. Townley's
