with us in building and maintaining
such a political and economic organ
ization in North Dakota as can and
will face with clean hands and with
spirit of unselfishness the never
yielding reactionary elements which
refuse to curb the inroads being
made upon the people by .Selfishness,
Privilege and Greed and which seek
to keep North Dakota in bondage;
Be it further resolved that, since
the time of our next regular conven-
ton is February, 1924, we now es-
tablish that such convention of
delegates to a state convention as
has been suggested in the foregoing
paragraph of this resolution, be held
in February and that this convention
shall be open to ALL WHO OPPOSE
THE PRESENT ADMINISTRATION
OF STATE AFFAIRS, that represent
tation at the state convention shall
be through the election of delegates,
one from each precinct within each
county to county convention, the
county convention to elect to the
state convention one delegate for
each $50 votes cast in that county
for Lynn j. Frazier for Governor in
the general election of 1916; that
the precinct meetings shall be held
throughout the state on the second
Tuesday in November, 1923, the
county convention on the third Tues
day in November, 1928, and the state
convention to be held at Bismarck
on the second Tuesday in February
1924; and that the whole matter of
organization, party affiliation, or.
ganization name, etc, shall be con-
sidered and decided by the Estate
convention Of delegates, which shall
also adopt program or platform
endorse candidates for office and
provide for the carrying on of pol
itical campaign and the building of
strong and permanent organiza-
ton.

BOYS OUT OF
I. FASHION IN
WALL STREET
Robbery of Youths Carrying.
Millions Becomes Un-
common

New York, Oct. 1O.-Storics of the
theft of stocks and bonds by imma-
ture youths, which a few years ago
We'd for frontpage positions in the
daily newspapers, appear only infrc-
quently now.
The answer is found in the almost
universal absence of boys and young
men in the roles Of runners and mes
sengers for the investment houses of
lower Broadway, Wall and Broad
Streets. The small satchels and
portfolios containing valuable Sc
curitfes which constantly are being
exchanged between investment
houses no longer are entrusted to
beardless boys. Instead husky men,
the majority veterans of the New
York police and fire department,
have been employed as messengers.
A canvass of financial institutions
in New York discloses that nearly
1000 former policemen and forcmen
now are on the payroll Of these
houses. Many of them have been re-
tired on pensions by the municipal
departments.
Before the>war great care was ex-
ercised in the employment of run
ners. Such employees usually were
youngsters and the pay was small.
So careful, however, were employers

TAXES CAUSE

Workman Pays Indirect Tax
of About 81 to Street

Atlantic City, Oct. 10.-Municipal,
state and federal officials were Wig
orously assailed for their cXtrava-
gance in special tax report made
today to the American Electric Rail
way Convention here. William II.
Maltbie, of Baltimore, is chairman
of the committee making it.
The report declared that owing to
governmental extravaganza, in part,
every workingman in the United
States is paying an average tax of
81 a year which is hidden in his car
fare. This is about two-thirds of a
cent out of every fare.

New York, Oct. ~10.-The trial of
the divorce of w. E. Stokes, wealthy

one of the most dramatic scenes ever

lowing an implied grave accusation
on the part Of witness Mrs. Stokes

and federal extravaganza" the re-
port said. The check upon public ex-
travagancc is to be found only in a
demand on the part of the public for
economy, and one of the first and
most important steps in the develop
mcnt of this public demand is the eli
mination of indirect taxation Approx
ceipts of the street car companies of
the United States is devoted to some
form of public burden. The average
fare at the present time is 6.92 cents
so IAN average of nearly two-thirds of
cent out of every street car fare
collected in the United States is an
indirect tax upon the street car US
ers for the benefit of the general
public.
1.-THE average workman riding to
and from his work 500 days in the
year pays in this one item an indi-
rect tax of approximately 50.
"lf this indirect tax and other
numerous indirect taxes which he
pays could be bundled together with
the relatively small direct tax which
he is called upon to meet, labelled,
and known to him as a tax, We would
find pressure for public economy
making itself evident at the polls in
unmistakable fashion.
Among the "obsolete" taxes point
cd out by the committee is one for
paving between car tracks which had
it's inception in horse car days when
the animals hoofs destroyed cedar
block pavcments between the rails.
Car riders do not realize, the re-
port declared, that state and federal
bodies which fix the car fares of the
country. figure all of these taxes in
when arriving at fair fare.

progressive minded people. The res
olution, in its preamble, said:
whereas, through the Nonparti-
san League, in spite of it's errors,
some of omission and some of COM
mission, has been a powerful inau-
ence for good in North Dakota and
in the northwest in general, it ap-
pears that there is some reason to
believe that possibly the Nonparti-
san League, as such, cannot function
to the best advantage at this time
for the reason that there are many
progressive minds in North Dakota
which have become prejudiced, not
entirely without cause, against the
organization and its very name to
that degree which makes it appear
seemingly evident that there is need
for a reorganization or organization
in which all progressives, all believ-
play, may have hand as builders
from the ground up and in which
they may affiliate without suffering
humiliation" Continuing it urged
that the, convention today "Pave the

convention as will unite all the pro-
gressivc factions within the state by
inviting all such factions to work

oe Versailles. The only direct clue was
q piece OF broken shoe lace found on
the floor at the scene Of the theft.
Certain people were suspected and
watched after the robbery. One Of them
had been at one time employed in the
palace. systematically the homes OF
all the suspects were visited and
searched. In the rooms OF the former
employe was found q pair of shoes
with one new lace corresponding to
the broken bit discovered in the pal
ace. Samples OF his thumbprints were
obtained and found to correspond with
those marking the window pane zof
the chateau through which the thieves
had entered. Further pursuit Of che
trail led to a shanty In O mean street
OF Versailles, where the two tapestries
were discovered, one intact and the
other cut into twelve pieces. The oc.
cupant Of the shack. who was believed
to have been an accomp@ice, had fed.
It Is known, however, that he and the
former palace enploye are commu.
Eists, and the theory is that the theft
was an act Of mere vandalism.

and bits Of fiuff disclosing on micro

1t Is doubtful whether broken shoe
