Now to anyone who has followed
Russia's development it is known that
the orders will be mostly for steel
products and electrical equipment.
Recognition of Russia at the next

VARIABLE MONEY STANDARD
Beulah, N. D.,
Aug. "a, 1882.

Beulah, N. D.,
Aug. "a, 1882.
Editor, Tribune:
It is, perhaps, presumptious or my
part to discuss economies but I have
often thought that farmers as rule
ere more right than we sometimes
think.
When farmer wants 81 for wheat
in order that the wheels of industry
may go around, he really has some
sound arguments for his side of the
case. Whatever amount the farmer
gets less than 81 makes that much
less business for the factories.
There is claimed to be a large over
production of wheat but that is not
the reason as all other farm COM
modities are just as low in price as
wheat.
I will explain my remedy for this
condition and if this remedy could
be applied there would be no more
deep depressions.
The gold standard is too inflexible.
The gold standard Is all right but
something has to be added to it to
make it flexible. The thing to be
added is variable factor. That var
liable factor is the index of farm COM
modities prices. For North Dakota
at the present time that index figure
stands at A, in 1880 it stood at 100,
before that it was higher, in month
from now it may make the grade
at 48.
All wages and salaries should be
based on that figure. OF course we
cannot vote to put this into effect in
industry but we can vote to put it
into effect in putting the officials
and employees of the state of North
Dakota on that basis.
For instance, If the present salary
of state official is $500 per month,
we would want it to read 800 agri-
cultural units which would be multi
piled by A and would then read
$4,000 in gold.
A school teachers salary would be
125 agricultural units and multiplied
by A would be $66 in gold.
When the agricultural unit In
creased in value in comparison with
gold the salary in gold would thereby
be increased correspondingly.
But, you ask, how would that pre-
vent speculation and too high prices?
Because if the agricultural unit in
creased beyond the value in gold the
purchaser would prefer to use gold
as a basis for his purchases.
If man bought a farm, for in
stance, for 1000 agricultural units, he
would pay at the present index fig
ure ST. 60 in gold; if the index figure
stood at $50 he would have to pay
$4,000 in gold, which, undoubtedly. he
would consider too high and would
therefore offer $4,000 in cash instead,
keeping closer to the actual value.

SUNDAY WITH
BLIND BOGEY
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
Once threatened with dissolu-
ton, the Bannockburn Club, now
a semi-public course, is steadily
recovering and it's financial con.
ditlon is improving.
Some of the members who
dropped out when the club was
nee" collapse after the severe
drought of 1880 have returned
while newcomers are enrolling.
Regaining Ground
Naturally, these old members
and newcomers are not signing
up at a rapid rate but it is sig
nificant that the club is gaining
ground after the wholesale resig-
nations of a year ago.
The spark that kept the club
alive was opening the course to
any players FOR a nominal price.
This move proved wise for close
to three hundred play over the
we 5K-ends.
There has been such steady
increase IN play ChaC Iony SyI'
vester, golf pro at Bannockburn
has mapped out a regular sched-
ule this Sunday with a blind
bogey.
Expected to Appeal
The regular Sunday events are
expected to prove attractive to
those faithful club members who
refused to leave when the club
was toppling and those non-mem-
bers who take advantage of play
ing the course for a nominal fee.
y It does appear that the Ban
nockburn Club is riding safely out
of the financial storm. And only
few years ago the county
threatened to apportion ten acres
from the center of the golf course
in lieu of back taxes.

Outside of walking three his
performance was almost flawless.
Griffs Hit Ball
This relief pitching business is
doing Fred worlds of good at this
time. ALI because it is getting
him prepared for starting duty
which will fall his lot later, or
as soon as he gains his full
strength from the grippe attack
which laid him so low those
important training days at Biloxi.
The GriffS won yesterdays
game not only because they got
good pitching from Marberry, but
because the entire team was in a
hitting mood from the first
inning to the last.
Joe Cronin was especially in
excellent fettle at bat as his
three hits for the day included
a. homer, double and triple. Carl
Reynolds was the next best batter
to Cronin. He socked out two
singles and double IN five trips
to the plate, while Sammy west
collected a double and triple in
five appearances to co-Star with
Cronin and Reynolds.
Lefty Gomez BeIted
All Of this heavy hitting was
off of one of the supposed best
pitchers in the league Lefty
Gomez. The slender Yank hurler
was not in such excellent form, as
is easily explained, and neither
was his successor, Henry Johnson,
who pitched from the fifth inning
to the end.
A big five-run scoring bee in
the fourth inning featured for
the Griffs. Here the batting order
went around with Cronin getting
a double, West a hit of the same
type, Reynolds and Berg, singles,
and Myer, ManuSh and Bluege
walks.
Lefty Carl Fischer was quite
unsteady during his five-inning
stay on the mound. He got by

home run over the centerfield

Among the Great

You may talk of your Cobbs
and Speakers, and yet of your
Babe Ruths, but among them
you won't find an outfielder
who has a more brilliant back
ground for hard, cold perform
ances than has Sam Rice. A
base stealer and fly catcher of
extraordinary ability and a hit
smith of far above the aver
age, Sam Rice has quietly
sawed wood until he ranks with
the games greatest. Unosten-
tatious to a fault, never play
ing to. the grandstand, not even
when he took that deep fly in
the Pittsburgh world series,
Rice has few equals and no
peers in the entire history OF
the game.
Like Johnson and Judge, his
complete playing career has
been with Washington, and in
the words of Clark Griffith
when he addressed the Kiwanis
Club just before going to Biloxi
last February, Rice is a fixture
In Washington which will al
ways find baseball chore for
him to do. ..---.. -.
It is :-ot only our earnest
hope, but our sincere belief
that the Sam Rice Day will
equal in every respect the
great demonstration given John
son and Judge and Rue, and
the Optimists may call on this

this wish materialize.
