IMPORTANCE OF NEXT

The meeting of the State County
Auditors at Bismarck called attention
to the need of a legislature being
sent to Bismarck next winter, that
will repeal lot Of unnecessary and
expensive laws. Nothing is more i'm
portant to the reputation of the
state, and to aid in securing addition
al population, than the complexion of
the next North Dakota legislature
On the action of the members Of the
next session of law makers, will large
ly hinge the question Of reduced tax
alton; and no member should be elect
ed who will be easily swayed by the
pressure of cities, towns and counties,
where there are state institutions
with heads, faculties and boards,
clamoring for as much money to
spend from the State Treasury, as
they can secure.
The county auditors told the people
of the state in plain terms why taxes
were high, and also how they can be
reduced. Attempts have been made

DENT ELEVATOR

The Occident Elevator, presided ov-
err by John Laird, was also a place of
much interest to the yeggs last night,
who tried their best with chisels and
other tools to break open the safe
but did not succeed. They did break
off the combination dial and jimmy
that up so that it could not be used
and the result is that Mr.. Laird will
have to have the safe broken into be-
fore he can get to the contents the
same as in the case of the Farmers
Elevator. The would be burglars and
safe robbers did not get into either
safe and their work shows that they
were novices at the business because
real yeggs would have used "soup''
and gotten into the safes. We under
stand that two guns and camera
were stolen from the Thompson Yards
office.

Harding. He has never posed as a

Harding. He has never posed as a
dictator. He did not undertake to say
that his proposed plan of compromise
must be adopted. He offered it as a
possible solution, and then pointed out
the only other course 49, direct nego-
tiations by the railroad managers with
employees, under the assurance that
the governments, state and national,
will protect all men in their right to
work and their right Of property. Ac-
cording to reports, some roads are IN
a position to take men back with SEMI
ority rights restored. President
Harding thought it possible that 9TH
er roads might be able to devise plans
for doing the same. Since they are
not able to do so without injustice to
men who have remained loyal, or 9TH
ers who have taken employment, it is
manifestly their duty to go ahead
with direct negotiations, employ men
to operate the shops and the roads, re-
lying upon the state and national gov
ernments for the preservation OF
peace and order.
"In the preservation of peace and
order and in the protection of life and
property, the national administration
and all state administrations will have
the unlimited support of all good citl-
zens. There can be no doubt that the
| GOOD citizens are not only in the ma
jority but no less aggressive in up
! holding the law than any other people
may be in attempting to overthrow

ports because, if we do not open wide
the doors to foreign products, then
the countries of Europe cannot sell
enough Of their goods to get the
money that they need to restore their
economic health and strength. That,
if the United States were made a
wide-open market for foreign pro-
ducts, our own producers would be
ruined and ultimately our condition
would become worse than is that of
Europe, we are expected to forget or
ignore.
This nation game many thousands
, of lives and billions Of it's wealth for
the winning Of the war, because 1t
: was assailed by the power that had
undertaken conquest Of Europe and
ulticate world conquest. It is suffer-
ing from the effects of its participa-
ton, not so keenly as the European
countries, but perceptibly. What it
can reasonably do to help Europe it
will do, but it must not be asked to do
more than it chooses to do, or to con-
cede that it is under obligation to
comply with any and all demands that
come from Europe, or to do anything
while the countries that may appeal
plead utter inability to do anything to
help themselves. Propaganda to make
the United States what someone call
ed "a perpetual Christmas tree" must
fail. The propagandists are wasting
their breath.

UNCHALLENGED FREEDOM

"President Harding is on absolute
ly sound and unbeatable ground when
he asserts the right of free men to
the protection of the government in
the exercise of their right to engage in
Legitimate occupations" declares the
Republican Publicity Association, thru
it's President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne
!Jr. Nowhere will any law-abiding
man question the soundness in either
law or morals of his statement in his
lteter to the Chairman of the Railway
Employees Publicity Organization
when he said:
"That same unchallenged freedom
which permits you or your associates
to decline to work is no less the hertz
age of the free American who chooses
to accept employment under the terms
proposed. The difference between the
two positions is that the striking rail-
road workers exercise their rights Of
freedom in seeking to hinder the nee
essary transportation of the country,
notwithstanding the provision made by
the law for the consideration of any
Just grievance, and the striking
miners seek to prevent the production
of coal necessary to common welfare,
notwithstanding the offer of an agency
to make an impartial settlement, while
the men who chose to work in response
to the call of the country are exercis-
ing their like rights, and at the same
time are making their contribution to
our common American welfare. There
can be no doubt whatever that in up
holding the policy he enunciated in
that statement the American people
will support the President to the utter
most"

EUROPE MAY AS WELL STOP
HER PROPAGANDA IN AMERICA

Propaganda designed to prevail
upon the United States to permit it.
self to be bled for the benefit of Eu-
rope, or rather, some countries OF Eu-
rope, is much in evidence in this
country. It is not so open as was
that whose purpose was to lure or
force this nation into the League of
Nations, but all intelligent persons
perceive it.
In the time of the campaign whose
object was to commit the United
States to participation in the adjust
ment of foreign complications that
are not it's concern, false appeal was
made to sentiment, to sense of duty.
Effort was concentrated upon attempt
to create the belief that the American
people owed it to the world to take
part in affairs concerning any and
every part Of the world. The propa-
gandists seemed to hold the belief that
they could cajole us with word pic
lures of our greatness, our power, our
influence for good. They seemed to
imagine that through constant reiter-
alton of flattery and of assertions that
it was our duty to help in the adjust
ment of all international disputes,
they could prevail upon us to accept
the view which they presented and
act in conformity with their selfish
desires.
Now they are so shaping their ap-
peal that they expect it to reach our
self-respect. They are telling US, in
varied phraseology, that if we do not
bestir ourselves to help largely to re-
habilitate and refinance - especially
refnance Europe, then Europe will go
all to pieces and bury us under the
debris.
We are told more or less directly,
that we ought to cancel" debts which
foreign countries owe us. That means,
we should take those debts upon our
own shoulders, for they must be paid,
and if they that owe them are not re-
quired to. pay, then we must do the
paying. One argument which is per-
sistently advanced is that we might
as we'll do the "canceling," because it
will be impossible to collect the debts.
Also we are told that we ought not
to impose protective duties upon i'm

HARDING CONSISTENT
IN COMPROMISE EFFORT

"People who have thought they saw
an inconsistency in some of the utter
ances Of President Harding regarding
the railroad strike have evidently fail
ed to keep in mind all that he has said
on that subject" says the Republican
Publicity Association, through it's
President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.
"A review of his record will show that
there has been no fundamental incon-
sistency.
ct is true that in one of his propo-
sails for a compromise he suggested
that the employees on strike be re-
turned to their former positions with
seniority rights unimpaired, but, re-
cognizing that this might not be pos
sible, he added the closing remark, If
there is good reason why the mana
gers can not accept, they will be OBJ
ligated to open direct negotiations or
assume full responsibility for the sit
uation.'
"Anyone who knows the generous
nature of the President and his desire
to promote peace and to secure to the
workman every possible benefit, will
readily understand his effort to have
the man taken back without sacrifice
of seniority rights if possible. Fail
| ing that, there was only one course
left the railroad executives to
open direct negotiations with former
employees or prospective new en-
ployees and to restore their working
organizations to an effective basis.
All that was necessary after the sub
mission of the Presidents plan OF
compromise was for the executives to
point out the reason why seniority
could not be restored and then proceed
with direct negotiations.
"President Harding had already
given notice that in doing this the
railroad managers would have the
protection of the government. In his
proclamation of July II he directed
all persons to refrain from all inter-
ference with the lawful efforts to
maintain interstate transportation
and he invited all state and municipal
authorities and all good citizens to
cooperate in upholding the laws and
preserving public peace. In the pre-
amble to that proclamation he had de-
clared that those persons who took
employment after the strike had been
called have the same indisputable
light to work that those have to de-
cline to work
"These utterances show consist
nent policy on the part of President

in several counties to protect the tax
payers by getting closer inspection of
the costs of proposed improvements,
of the expense of schools, Of various
other items of county government.
These efforts are in the right direc-
ton, but little can be done to cut ex-
penses without the aid and the acts
of legislature, and the cooperation
of the governor and state officials.
The guessing at costs, the ignoring
of costs, the increase of fads and cost
ly experiments, can we'll be dispensed
with at this time. County officials
were asked to confer and to recon-
mend certain plans Of economy to the
legislature, and voters are urged in
their own behalf to pledge their can
didates in advance to carry out the de-
mands of the taxpayers for reduced
taxes. Less expensive administration
of certain laws was asked. Election
laws that have become burden
should be simplifed and elections con-
Quoted at less expense. One ballot
for men and women voters is asked
for. Changes in classification of farm
lands, and taxable structures or i'm
provements on land, were pointed out
as necessary legislation.
The assessment of real property in
1919 was three times it's former val
uation, and the state board Of equal
ization added about 40 percent, MAX
ing the average assessment nearly
five times that Of any former year.
The same rate was followed in 1920
and 1921 and tax levies were boost
ed accordingly. Boards, bureaus and
commissions resulting from laws of
of administration, all put over on the
political nature, added to the cost
people by a legislature that seemed
to care nothing for expense.
The next legislature will have the
first chance to come to the aid of
the farmer, and the general tax pay
err, since the raid on the treasury
which was started in full swing in
1919, with the league leaders in con-
troll 49, Jamestown Alert.

PASS ANTI-STRIKE LAW

The prompt enactment OF law
specifically prohibiting conspiracies
for interference with interstate COM
merce is urged by the Republican
Publicity Association in statement
issued thru the President of that
organization, Hon. P. Jonathan Bourne
Jr, The statement says:
"While it is probable that under
the antitrust law prosecutions could
be brought against men who conspire
to interfere with interstate commerce
it would be far better for the coun-
try in general, and for prosecuting
officers and courts in particular, II
the statutes covering that subject
were definite and specific.
"In 1919, after the threat of the
Four Brotherhoods to tie up the
railroads so tight that they would
never run again, the Republican Pub
licity Association insistently urged
the enactment of the anti-strike
clause of the Transportation Act
which read as follows:
IF two or more persons enter into
any combination or agreement with
the intent substantially to hinder,
restrain or prevent movement OF
commodities or persons in interstate
commerce; or enter into any combi-
nation or agreement which substan-
TALLY binders, restraints or pre-
vents the movement of commodities
or persons in interstate commerce,
such persons shall be deemed guilty
of conspiracy and shall be punished
by fine not exceeding $500, or by i'm
prisonment not exceeding six months,
or by both, such fine and imprison-
ment; Provided, that nothing herein
shall be taken to deny to any individ-
ual the right to quit his employment
for any reason
"There is nothing whatever in that
provision to which any honest and
law-abiding man can take exception.
It proposes not involuntary servitude;
compels no man to work. On the
contrary it expressly asserts the right
of any individual to quit. All that
it undertakes to do is to prohibit a
criminal interference with the right
of. the people of the United States
to freedom in conducting interstate
transportation.
"That law should have been en-
acted in 1919. It was passed by
the Senate with the supporting vote
of the present President of the Unit
ed States, but was defeated in the
House.
cts enactment now and vigorous
enforcement Of its provisions will
guard the United States against suf-
fering such as has recently been ex-
perienced in the deserts of Arizona,
where trains were marooned by men
who conspired to interfere with inter-
state commerce"
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1922-08-24
goods amounted to $415,449,457.

Everywhere you look there is alb
solutely no foundation to the argument
that an American protective tariff
will destroy our foreign trade. All
the figures l have been able to run
down, taken from the years when we
had the protective tariff show that
our export trade was greater than
our import trade.
"Going back to the year 1912 we
find that our foreign business amount
ed to total OF S1,341, 732,7S9 while
Europe's total business with us
amounted to only S819,5S5,326.
"Many of those who are doing their
best to defeat protective tariff are
using Germany as one of their main
arguments. Germany makes fine
target for them because they love to
tell US how Germany is stepping a.
head by leaps and bounds and how
; she will walk away with everything.
, In using the German argument they
forget that they are proving nothing
so far as tariff is concerned. What
they are doing is to make 4 c1>y I'M
PLEASANT reflection on American bust
ness and the men behind American
business. Theactual figures of bust
ness with Germany during the two
years of 1912, 1913, when Germany
was in her prime and long before the
Great War even started, are the best
proof against the German argument.
During those two years we bought
from Germany goods totaling $3.50 ,343
451.
Gee, that's lot of money to send
there" said Ruth.
eyes, Ruth, but we sold goods to
Germany during those same twenty
four months totaling $638,643,233 or
almost twice as much! Does that look
like a protective tariff kills our for
eign trade? Hardly! And not only
that bue if the free trader wants to
rest on the German argument it is
simple enough to point out to him that
those figures represent two of the big
gest German years before the war.
Germany today needs much more than
she did then and certainly, while she
is getting on her feet rapidly is not
yet in the same position for world
trade that she was in 1912 and 1918.
! $50 it is all down the line. Italy and
Great Britain both paid US more
money under a protective tariff than
we paid either of them. Sentiment,
blood ties and all that cannot enter
into world trade. We either have OF
haven't the goods to sell and we either
must protect our goods and the men
who make the goods or we will see
our markets flooded with everything
! from South Africa to the North Pole.
You give Freddie a few days of these
figures and let him sleep over them a
night or two and then see what he
says.
"Now, your time is up so off to bed
with both of you. Goodnight"
