WANTS BONUS IN CASH

oSHdTCK, N. LAX,
April Is, 1882.
Editor. Tribune:
The letter written recently in the
Forum by the party signing it A.
Citizen, has sense in 1t, in more ways
than one
As long as business has been in ex-
istence and as smart or wise as bust
ness heads may be, they have never
failed to hook the horse behind the
cart instead OF hooking the cart be-
hind the horse, In putting through
what they call economy programs.
Buying power does not lie in the
so-called high official. His buyin;.
power Is like shipping merchandise by
fast express and getting it through
on slow freight schedule. Whoever
could corscientiously sit down and
figure out an economy program by
cutting buying power in the form o.
trimming the salaries Or rather wages
of the lower-priced worker without
considering the trimming OF the high
salaried man or woman? The high
salaried worker Is not willing to share
any of the burden at all. We hear
50 much about depression and reme-
dies for 1t. Well, If business had even
as much sense as a little boy, it
would 60 to the top Of the hill and
slide down. Things would be differ
ent and public opinion all around
would be different.
The bonus measure In congress now
Is on the same basis. TO create a
two-billion dollar corporation to fl
nance big money interests and totter-
Ing railroads is nothing. But to pass
a measure and make 1t law to pay to
the ex-service man recognized OBJ
legation is called "uneconomical," ode
structive" and foolish" and what not.
To make this two-billion dollar oor-
poration look and sound good to the
farmer it is called movement to aid
agriculture. Did you ever stop to
think how dumb these officials must
think the farmer is? Can you tell me
what kind of a farmer will benefit by
this thing? Certainly I cannot.

called lawmakers in Washington d

IT'S A GREEN APPLE

Editor, Tribune:
Just a few comments on your edi-
torial in Mondays issue of The Trib-
une entitled Again walks the
Ghost"
The squabble over the governorship
reminds me OF the story In one OF
cur old school readers about the four
little boys who fought about an apple
that had accidentally rolled into their
path. -.
Said Archie. I'll have It,
Said Richard IT'S NINE Said
Willie, I've got it, so there
Said Bobby How foolish to
squabble like this Let's cut 1t

In the squabble, however, 1t Slip
ped out of the hands Of all four and
rolled down the hill where a "bossy
was placidly chewing her cud." She
gave but gulp and swallow or
two and the apple was seen never
more.
Rewritten this might read like this:

road to Devils Lake where bossy will
get 1t after all. Then will say Billy
and Jimmy and Frank ct. al. "How
We wish we had cut 1t in four"
To the old tree, (the electorate of
n d. whose life blood has been
given to producing this apple, that
an accidental gust of wind brought
into the path Of these naughty boys,
1t doesn't make much difference who
gets 1t, the boys or old bossy.
It knows too well, from past expert
ence. that its only reward will be the
demand for more and more apples
for other naughty boys to squabble
over.
Meanwhile, it laughs up its sleeve,
remembering that at best 1t is only a
very green apple (you remember it
was blown off the tree) and usually
gives q pretty bad belly ache to the
one who is successful enough to wrest
1t from the others or who, like old
bossy, catches it on the rebound. Old
Bossy, tho, has good stomach and
may be able to digest it.
Maybe some time in the dim and
distant future way will be found
whereby politicians can be made to
put up or shut up" If not, the old
tree may get too weary of producing
apples any more and demand once
and for all its just dues.
In the meantime, we are glad that
North Dakota has at least one edi-
tor who Is not afraid to tell things
as they are-who IS neither ultra
conservative nor ultra radical: either
Of which is just as much of menace
to our fair state Of North Dakota.

somewhere. Maybe old bossy knows

UP TO REPUTATION
Her Constipation Overcome
by This Delicious Cereal

If you are troubled with constipa-
ton, read Miss Bundy's enthusiastic
letter:
81 would like to congratulate the
one who discovered ALL-BRAN. 1t
really does live up to its reputation
when it is said TO relieve consti-
patton
"I used to feel poor all the time
Just down and out - and after
reading an advertisement in mag
azine about ALL-BRAN | got box.
1t has evermore helped me, and
it is not hard at all to eat" Miss
Mary Bundy, BennettsVille, S. c.
Laboratory tests show ALL-BRAN
brings two things needed to correct
common constipation: "Bulk" to ex-
ercise the intestines; Vitamin B to
help tone the intestinal tract. ALL
BRAN also furnishes iron for the
blood.
The "bulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that of lettuce. Within the
body, it forms q soft mass. Gently,
it clears the intestines of wastes.
How much safer than taking pills
and drugs-so often harmful. ALL
BRAN is not habit-forming. Two
tablespoonfuls daily will overcome
most types of constipation. If your
intestinal trouble is not relieved
this way, see your doctor.
Use as a cereal, or in cooking.

NAVAL FLEETS
WAGE WAR ON
PACIFIC COAST

SAN PEDRO, March 10. U.P)-
The annual war game in which
the Pacific coast is defended by a
black fleet from an invading
blue" fleet from Hawaiian waters
was earnestly under way today
with the two fleets cautiously
feeling" for each other.
The "blue" force, now sailing
eastward, has an attacking range of
approximately 100000 square miles.
1t may strike in the island group
off Puget Sound, at San Francis
co or on Magadalena Bay, Mexico.
The defending fleet was under
fun steam by noon yesterday when
the last of the war vessels steamed
out of the San Pedro base. Three
hundred aircraft will be in oper-
alton during the maneuvers, with
the "black" fleet holding a 2 to
advantage in the air.
The carriers Langley and Lex
ington are in the black" ranks
with the carrier Saratoga the main
air unit OF the blue" fleet. Each
group has observation ships aboard
various battleships and cruisers.
Admiral Frank H. Schofield, COM
mander in chief of the United
States battle fleet, is with the blue"
fleet as umpire of the games.
1t was believed that the fleets
may not contact each other for
several days. The black" fleets
initial move was the placing of
dummy mines at harbor mouths
and the stationing of submarines
at strategic points for the anticipa-
ton OF "enmey" movements.

the entire face of the sun is covered

one-tenth of the suns area on the

begin to grow larger until, approx
mately an hour later, there will be left
only a little dark notch on the left

Bankers Term Rumors "Much Ado
About Nothing"

Bankers Term Rumors much Ado
About Nothing"
NEW YORK, August 80 (P.-Spec-
ulation over the visit here of Montagu
Norman, governor of the Bank of Eng
land reached fever heat yesterday on
two continents, but drew from leading
banking authorities the description of
being much ado about nothing.
Widespread reports were circulated
stating the governor of the English
bank had held conference with
George l.. Harrison, governor of the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York,
ana other leading American bankers on
war debts, the obtaining Of a huge
American loan by the Bank Of Eng
land, an international campaign to ad-
vance commodity prices, possible re-
turn by England to the gold standard
and other subjects OF far-reaching i'm
portance.
Gov. Harrison, who until today had
kept in the background, SO far as news
paper inquiries into the Norman visit
were concerned, said emphatically the
English banker had come to New York
solely to pay an informal visit and had
done so at Gov. Harrison's request.
Gov Harrison emphatically denied
that war debts had been discussed
during this visit, and that the question
of a loan had been mentioned, either
directly or indirectly.
Bankers stated, however that the
Norman visit had unquestionably
helped to provide a better mutual I'M
derstanding of the financial problems
faced by England and the United
States.
In explanation Of Gov. Norman's visit
to the United States at this time 1t has
been said he wanted to crowd in a
brief vacation before the Summer end
ed. He had received a request from
Mrs. John Markoe, now 81 years old,
| who had befriended him in his youth,
to visit her. She now Is living in or
