Mr, Elliott told the For- um this morning that about 30 stores were already organized or in process of organization, and that stores al- ready are in operation in Minot, Ken- mare and Devils Lake. The agreement signed by the farmers appearing on this page, sets forth very clearly how the company proposes to operate. On the basis of that agreement, which, it is understood, “is not sign- ed by the company nor any of its representatives, but which the farm- ers are required to sign, a purchaser rtificate pays $100 to the com- pany, and it is further provided that the -first $10,000 so subscribed shall go to the establishment of the store. The balance, or, to quote the agreement, “all surplus subscrib- ed over the said sum of $10,000 may be used by the said com- pany either to establish and maiatain a central buying agency or wholesale establishment, or to carry on educational work on propaganda along ail lines deem- ed by the boards of directors of the Consumers’ United Stores company to be in the interest of or beneficial to farmers, and for the assistance of farmers’ organiza- tions h as relate to the econo- mic, educational or political inter- ests of the farmers, or both,” The case of the Kenmare store is pat. In that store, there are over 300 farmers signed up. $100 each, making a total collection by the or- ganizers of $30,000. Of that $30,000, according to the statement in the agreement, $10,000 is devoted to the establishment of the store, and the balance, or $29,000, may be used in any manner that the board of directors of tne company may desire. In its final analysis, the action of the farmers of the Kenmare district in signing up for $100 each gives to the company a $10,000 store, with 300 gned up customers, and a surplus of $20,000 to be used in any manner that the directors may decide. ‘Mr. Elliott told The Forum that thir- ty ‘stores were organized, or in process of organization.

Then our judges might follow the example of former judges and pride themselves on writing long winded, stufiy decisions composed mainly of quotations and ciations. Then to ev-| ery foolish point or question our judges might find time to give a ser- -ious answer waiving the precept to answer not a fool according to his folly. But life is short and so the long lumbering decisions must go. We have not time to write them or to read them nor money to waste in paying the expense of ‘booking a mass of use- Jess stuff.

Then! ; the judges would not waste their time yin reading gver and trying to har- monize and construe the oft conflicting reports of other states. They would find more time to keep up with their work. and to write more clear and concise decisions as commended by our Justice Grace. In the last docket of the West Pub-| lishing company there is an article on “The Case Law Problem.” It appears that the rapid increase of law reports is fast becoming a nuisance and that it is mainly the result of booking lum-} bering opinions filed with copies of records and long quotatons from other cases and numerous citations to sup-| port every legal proposition. In form- ulating a legal decision the greatest care should be taken to avoid the use| ‘of every needles? word and t ‘ It {s in the Northwestern Reporter, ' Ze and to state the facts and the la wof the case in’ a few simple marching sentences and paragraphs. The office of the first short paragraph is to fairly introduce “case. And the decision, it should be given in one very short concluding | paragraph. { It were easy to improve the court | decisions of ali western states by re- | writing them and using only half the number of words. | wish it re POs- sible to give a copy of a decision cov- ering 15 to 30 pages with head notes | of two pages, but no one is foolish enough to print or to read such a mass of stuff. I must get Waters or some other expert accountant to make an estimate of the loss resulting from the waste of time and waste of money in making and booking such decisions. And then what of the day of judg: ment when we may be called to give an account of every idle word, spoken or written? Here is one of my opinions. I do not guarantee that the judges will con- cur, I cannot guarantee them to be always right. However, I do guaran- tee that as time passes they will all grow older and wiser and will learn to write decisions more gramatical and logical, more clear ‘and concise as commended by Justice Grace.
