p. w. starkle said Wednesday.
An exhibit from the North Dakota
state penitentiary farms was. to be
sent in Wednesday and this will fill
all the remaining pens available.
o. J. Weisner, South Dakota state
college, began Judging the entries
late Tuesday ana Wednesday noon
had completed work on the turkey
section. He expects to finish his work
late Wednesday or early Thursday.
Starkle said the variety Of fowl on
display had increased 20 per cent
over last year.
Attendance at the show Tuesday
was excellent, starkle said, but in
dications were weather conditions
would reduce the turnout Wednesday.
Exact Number Uncertain
The fact that entries constantly
were being received made 1t virtually
impossible to determine the exact
number Of birds on exhibition.
At noon Wednesday receipts from
entries had aggregated approximately
$185. which was more by go thar,
that collected during the entire show
last year.
starkle estimated there was an In
crease over last year In number Of
fowl registered which would reach
nearly Is Per cent. ....,.. -. ..,,.s4,i....
\ Despite disagreeable weather, the
attendance at the show Tuesday eve
ming compared favorably with that
Of previous years, with several; hum

Interested spectators followed the
Judge as he moved along the rows Of
exhibits examining each bird sepa-
rately. Weisner announced the prize
winners in each division Is soon a.
judging was completed and ribbons
were attached to exhibits which were
given awards.
A number Of wild fowl have been
placed on exhibition and are shown
in separate section.
Weather Cuts Attendance
"A number Of farmers from the
eastern part Of the state, who had
expected to enter poultry, were un-
able to do so because Of adverse
weather conditions and poor condi-
lions Of the roads, according to A. l.
Nordquist. superintendent Of the
show. Entries were expected from q
far east as Lisbon.
The show Is wider In its scope thar
lin previous years, Nordquist said
with nearly every section Of the state
west OF the Missouri represented.
Particularly gratifying to show Of
ficials, he said, was the number Of
entries received from farmers living
north Of Bismarck. Heretofore only
q few exhibits were received from
farmers further north than Under
wood.
Entries have been labeled only BY
number and no complete list Of prize
winners can be obtained until q check

SAYS DEFICIT Is INCREASING
Balanced Budget at End Of Fis-
cal Year 1893 Contem.
plated in Proposals

Washington, Jan. 1:.-(AP)-A bal
anced budget at the end Of the fiscal
year 1884 is the goal Of the admins
tration's tax increase program sub
mitted Wednesday by Secretary Mel
lon to the house ways and means COM
mittee.
Appearing as the principal witness
at the opening Of hearings before the
democratic-controlled group that will
formulate broader revenue raising
legislation. the veteran cabinet men,
Der Of three republican administra-
lions said:
I'VE are in the midst Of a grave
emergency. It Is essential to raise
additional revenue, not Just to cover
current expenditures but to maintain
unimpaired the credit Of the United
States government.
This last objective is of paramount
Importance to every citizen In the
land. It is an indispensable step In
our progress toward recovery.
THE losses that will be suffered by
every individual and every industry
through continuation Of the de-
preston will exceed many times over
the amounts to be contributed In ad-
ditional taxes.
Sacrifice ID Demanded
1T Is not only the patriotic duty
OF all to insure the financial stabil-
ity Of the government in times such
as these, but the sacrifice demanded
Is amply warranted by considerations
Of individual self-interest."
Mellon said the plan he submitted
generally was a return to tho taxa
ton existing under the 1924 revenue
act, twice amended since. He est.
mated it would return $3.50, 900 900 adj
dittonal revenue during the current
fiscal year and $500, 900 900 In the
fiscal year beginning next July /.
It would include selective sales tax,
increases In income and corporation
taxes, super estate tax, and increases
In Sllrtaxes.
Citing the $eo3, 900, 600 deficit last
year, and prospective deficit Of $2,-
123, 000, 900 this year, Mellon estimated
there would be deficit of 81, Al, OOO,-
900 In 1888 despite the increase in
revenue.
Coming sonewtatas surprise to the
committee members. the treasury
secretary announced "the, administra-
ton Is determined, with your coopera-
ton, to arrest this borrowing process
on June 80 next In urging the in
creased taxes In order to prevent an
increase In the public debt. The ad-
ministration has been borrowing hun
dreds Of millions the last three years.
In addition, he recommended that
the new taxes be terminated at the
end Of two years, when the budget Is
balanced in 1884.
TO Reinvigorate Credit
This Is essential not merely for
maintaining unimpaired the credit OF
the government. but also for REIN
MIGRATING the entire credit structure
of the country.
THE greater part Of the present
fiscal year has already elapsed and II
is impossible to avoid q large defici:
for this year. To cover. for the bal

Reject Governors Proposal to
Join With Survey Body in
State Meeting
POLITICAL SCHEME SCENTED
Consider Suggestion to Bar

POLITICAL SCHEME SCENTED

Having accumulated mass Of data
regarding the expenditures Of vari-
GUS state departments, members OF
the executive committee OF the North
Dakota Taxpayers association left
for their homes Wednesday to study
1t at their leisure.
They were not sure where they
would begin to suggest state tax cuts
or where they would end, but their
professed intention was to formulate
4 program which would markedly cur
tail the states tax budget.
Citing accomplishments OF taXpay-
ers groups in various counties IN the
eastern part Of the state as indicative
of what may be done to curtail state
taxes, members Of the committee pro-
posed to apply the same methods to
state problems.
Their program will be formulated
and presented to state meeting OF
the organization to be held early IN
June. The exact date and place Will
be designated later.
Although all Of the members OF the
executive committee are or have been
members Of the I. v. A. faction IN
politics, they fatty rejected an inW-
tation by Governor George F. Shafer
to ioin with him In calling q state
meeting at which the association
would Join hands with his govern
mental survey commission. Among
several reasons given the governor was
one that it would be impossible 70
obtain a really representative turnout
for such q gathering because OF the
cost.
Politics Barred
It was said privately, however. that
the most compelling reason was Ieaf
that such an alliance would o1min-
ish the effectiveness Of the associa-
tons movement by entangling 1t IN
state factional politics.
Members Of the committee were
frank to say that numerous attempts
have been made to embroil the tax
reduction movement In politics. They
reaffirmed their intention OF keeping
1t free from such considerations.
Among methods Of reducing state
taxes under consideration by ths
committee Is one to eliminate entirely
the power Of the state to levy against
real estate or tangible personal prop.
