THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) GES PLANT TREES If the American people realized the money value of trees to themselves as well as to the na- tion this country would not be in the danger it is of forest denudation. Mayor Dumont Kennedy, Crawfordsville, Ind., has an object lesson of increased wealth from a few trees. The mayor is'a farmer. In his cow- lot was a slightly rising mound. On May 10, 1902, it occurred to him that this mound would make a good site for a home some day. So, that very day, he planted 12 young shade trees around that mount, leaving 100 feet each way in the center for the house. In 18 years those 12 trees have grown to fine size, their branches spreading beau- tifully around that central spot. The acre on which those trees grow was worth $200-as a cowlot. Today it is worth $1,000 as a building site, entirely because of the trees’ that Mayor Kennedy planted. Trees are a joy forever. They are worth plant- ing for the pleasure of seeing them grow; they are worth planting for the value they bring to your land by reason of their decorative effect. ~ Arbor Day is not far away. Plan to plant one or more. trees on your lot. ' The politicians are not sure about. Hoover's views, but they: know who :would. be.

LORD GREY’S CRITICISM Lord Grey, British ambassador to the United States, has sided against the president and with _ the senate in the wranglé at Washington over the peace trety. This is the fundamental fact of his now famous letter to the London Times. He says: “No charge of bad faith or repudiating sig- natures can be brought against the action of the United States senate. By the American constitution, it is an independent body, an in- dependent element in the treaty-mdking pow- er.” That phrase is the crux of the matter at issue in Washington. Lord Grey, who is not a lawyer, but a country gentleman, has seen it, and has spoken out, against all precedent. Ambassadors are not supposed: to take sides in domestic contro- versies in countries to which they are accredited. It is undoubtedly within the power of the state departmet to say Lord Grey has become “persona non grata,” which is the diplomatic phrase of ask- ing for his recall. But, it would be better for all concerned at Washingtn to get on with the treaiy. i ‘clearly as diplomatic ‘teat Britain is willing to accept the senate’s / 8 permit, that reservatious, Lord Grey | It is unreasonable to, believe the; ‘ BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE | lother allies will refuse to side with Great Britain on that question. Therefore, as between the president’s demand for the original text and the senate’s demand for reservations, the issue is dead. An important part of the senate declares it wants only to safeguard America’s vital interests. Lord Grey, as spokesman for Great Britain, and presumably for all the allies as well, avers these senators are well within their rights. : What more can be said? Those who have loyally supported the president’s interpretation of our responsibili- ties can hardly continue to do so when Europe it- self repudiates them. The president, however, having pledged himself to the original document, is perfectly correct in standing by his implied | contract with the negotiators representing other countries. Congress has failed to raise the pay of ambas- sadors, and the next president will make his ap- pointments from a copy of Bradstreet’s, as usual. YOU PAY TAXES TWICE “Abolishment of tentative returns on in- come taxes has been announced by Commis- siontr Roper of the internal revenue bureau. In making a report on 1919 incomes taxpayers will not be permitted to estimate their in- comes or their taxes.”—Washington Dis- patch. - ' You bet! Your Uncle Sam is out for, all the gleanings this trip. The significance of the above, Washington dis- pate his: All through 1919 people were paying much income tax as they went along. You dug 1p one or two cents for every ice cream soda. Each time you or your family went to the movies or a theatre you paid a tax. Many of the things you and your wife bought in the stores carried a government tax. Right and left you shook hands with a U.S. tax. And you kept no-track of them, dye mind? : Along last fall; a» féderal’ judge: in ‘New York handed down a decision that the government could not tax you twice; that i is, if you handed the store- keeper a couple! of dollars tax when you. bought some article subject to the luxury tax the good! ald United States couldn’t collect those ‘dollars from you again. Folks are just ‘beginning to'héar |, of that decision, but they can’t remember a half ora tenth of the:times when they paid these taxes, or the amounts. . So, many , had made up their ‘| minds to estimate it. ; Cianiepeet ‘ines hands stop to that. Nothing doing: : down a new rule that puts a In Milan’ a childless marriage i ground for di- vorce.

We are frequently asked: “What has become of Hardt since the last session of the legislature?” We have'been unable to reply, positively, but cur- rent rumor has it that he has “received a calling” —at $3,000 per out of the $200,000 “immigration fund” which was so thoughtfully provided by last winter’s session of the North Dakota legislature (otherwise known as the Townley plunderbund) and which said “immigration fund’) is commonly known as a slush fund with which Townley and his ring of “lie-like-a-horse-thief” to other states to explain to the people thereof what a good thing the “Nonpartisan League” is.
