LACK OF FUNDS PREVENTS FURTHER

 There are now l9l pensioners on the roll, of which l66 are men and 25 are women. The last Le- glslature increased the allowance to men from $l2.oO to $25 per month and to women from $25 to S40 per mon tli, but did not in- crease the appropriation to meet such increase lie effect of this failure to provide funds is that that over one third of the appro- priation of $6O,0OO, or to be exact $2l ,7o5.2o has been disbursed du ring three -eights of the biennium leaving an unexpended balance of only $38, ,244.75, Even with no more allowances and continuing the roll as it exists today defi- cit of $13,24O would ensue.

The burial of ex.President Wilson last Wednesday,, marked the end of a career that wlS at once tragic and sublime. An au- thor and exponent of greater freedom for the common people, Wilson, toward the end of his presidential term was called th,a dictator of America. He adopted methods of pro ceduro which lost him the support of Congress- yet he was man enough to go on his way alone and carry his plans to their continuation. Human man is not made that can carry the bur den Wilson voluntarily assumed and it was only natural that he should break under the strain.
 Wilson's place in history will never be realized by this gener atiOn, so many are the ramiticat Ions of world p0litics engender ed by our entrance into the great war. No doubt, i'll time when the passing of years makes it pos sible for historians to review the events of today from an unpre jubiced viewpoint, Woodrow Will son will be given 8 seat in the hall of fame in the front ranks among the Great Americans.

STANDARD OIL
CASES00N TO
BE IN COURT
$4,000 Income Tax Is In
volved in the Dispute in
Federal Court

Hearing may be held in federal
court before Judge Andrew Miller
soon in the law suit involving the
efforts of the state to collect about
$4,000 additional income tax from
the Standard Oil Company of In
diana, according to c. c. Converse,
state tax commissioner.
The present state tax commission
er reviewed the Standard Oil Com
panys income tax reports for the
years 1919, 1920 and 1921, when the
tax was assessed by the state tax
commissioner office when George
E. Wallace held office. The present
state tax commissioner holds that
the oil company assessments were
too low.
The distinction which is to be the
bone of contention in the courts is
that the Standard Oil Company
claimed that the amount of income
which the state can reach is deter
mined by substracting the wholesale
price of the gasoline at the refin-
cries from the retail price in North
Dakota, while the state tax commits
sioner claims that the proper meth
cd of computing the income on
which the tax is levied, is by sub
stractng from the sales price the
actual cost to the Standard Oil
Company of refining the gasoline.
The difference is approximately
$4,000 in income tax.
ceeded to assess the tax on this
basis, and the Standard Oil Com
pany brought suit to enjoin collec-
tion. Several state officials were
named defendants.

CAVALIERS SHOWING
Fourth Bank ReOpened in
County in Last Few Weeks
Marks County Recovery

Reopening of the State Bank OF
Hannah in Cavaiieracounty and the
Michigan City Bank of Michigan
City was announced today by State
Examiner Gilbert Semngson.
The State Bank of Hannah has a
capital of $4,000, surplus of 5000
and deposits of 100000 and has
been under special deposit order
since the time of it's suspension last
October. The reopening of this
bank is regarded as especially i'm
portant as showing the marked i'm
provement of the situation in Cav
alier county.
Cavalier county was especially
hard hit last fall in the epidemic
of bank closings, and is making fine
progress in getting the banks there
reopened, the bank at Hannah being
the fourth bank to reopen in that
county within the past several!
weeks. c. B. Mcmillan is president
and M. J. Dixon is cashier of the
Hannah bank.
The Michigan City Bank, under
suspension since December IL, has
deposits of 900.
Mr.. Semingson said number of
banks have about completed arrange
ments for reopening and he expects
that within week three more will
be in shape to resume their usual
banking business.
In a tour through the northern
part of the state the examiner found
that conditions are in better shape
than for years, he said today, that
banks are gradually building up
their reserves, that farmers are not
making the number of loans for
cropping purposes as heretofore, all
indicating that real diversification
in farming is actually here, and that
banks are being relieved from hav-
ing to make spring advances in the
amounts that were common few
years ago.

THOUGH QUIET
Desire on Part of the Voters
Is Seen to Hear the Issues
of Fight

Although the present state poll
tical campaign is proceeding with
an absence of extreme bitterness
which has marked campaigns of the
last few years, there is displayed an
eager desire on the part of thou
sands of citizens in the state to
learn the facts involved in the con-
troversies of the fight, and an es-
pecially eager desire to learn in de-
tail of the work of the present state
administration.
This informatoin is brought here
by many Independents who have
heard Governor Nestos speak in the
last ten days, in various parts of
North Dakota. - In some towns the
Governor has had the largest audi
ences in several years, according to
people in those towns.
A marked change is seen in the
attitude of many people in the coun-
try, in communities which have
been known as bitterly Nonpartisan
in past years. Governor Nestos ad-
dressed political meeting in Re-
gan, Burleigh county, Saturday aft
ernoon. A good-sized audience list
ened with careful attention and at
the conclusion, when the Governor
asked il anyone desired to ask ques-
tions, none was asked. The same
spirit OF friendly attention was en-
countered by the chief executive at
gan meeting was in contrast to the
Governor visit there two wears
ago, when rival League speakers at
tempted to take the crowd away
from the Independent campaigner,
and did succeed in holding two poll
teal meetings. There usually have
been hecklers in Burleigh county
audiences. and there was none at
either meeting.
The meeting of the Governor last
week in Flasher was said to be the
largest political meeting there in
several years. the hall not being
large enough to hold the crowd. An
Othcr large meeting was held at New
Leipzig.
Governor Nestos, it is known, es-
pecially appreciates the willingness
of people he has encountered in his
speaking tour, regardless of whe-
ther they have been Independents
or Nonpartisans, to give careful at
tention to his recital of the efforts
of the present administration to
conduct the affairs of the state in
a business.like manner.
Attorney General George Shafer
will begin a speaking tour Wednes-
day at Solen.
Today and Tuesday both he and
Governor Nestos are sitting on the
state pardon board.
