A good deal of the cause is the indifference of the Democratic administration at Washington which failed to forestall the situation. Protests are coming in to federal departments at Washington from all sections‘of the nation against the dumping of Canadian wheat upon the markets of the United States. Not a stone should be left unturned to arrive at a solution if any is possible to stabilize the market. It was to be expected that the Non- partisan league papers would’drag the issue into politics. fou State conditions and the attitude of North Da- kota bankers have nothing to do with the econ- omic causes of the,slump in prices. The bankers of. the state are shoulder to shoulder with the farmers to get every penny possible for wheat and other farm produce and the fair farmers know that they are, despite the demagogic assaults of, the league papers which grasp at a straw when- ever there is any chance of assailing the business interests of the state. ‘ Everyone in North Dakota is vitally interested in the price of farm products and in fair and just means of distribution, but one. of the reasons prices of wheat and other farm commodities have slumped is just because these economic issues have been: handled on a political rather than a business basis. Commercial clubs, barks and every “citizen in the state stand ready today to help solve the econ- omic problems of the farmers, but the league can never hope to sécure any cooperation by calling the businessman a crook and associate of, grain gamblers. oe ANT Townley and his ilk know they lie when they “abuse the business men, but they have won a fol- lowing by this kind of deception, but the day seems not far distant when the farmer will realize that he has been grossly deceived. h ‘ AN INCH Long years ago it was said that an added inch didn’t matter much unless it was tacked onto the nose.\ q ‘ Which, of course, is far from the truth/of the matter. An inch, more or less, often is all the difference between life and death, between joy and sorrow, and between getting into West Point and not getting in. Whith brings one around to the War Depart- ment’s military academy inch. It used to be that a, would-be West Pointer had to measure 65 inches if he was 18 or over. For the 17-year-old but 64 inches of height was asked. This, naturally, keeps many a:Grant ‘and Lee and: Pershing out “of shdulderstraps.. © In recent: years 1t dawned upon the -general makers that it took more than mere inthes to manufacture a war commander—gray matter and courage were found more needful. ; So the bar has been'lowered. Secretary Baker slices an inch off, and candidates may get by with 64 inches.’ This is promising. Some day it will be decided Het mere inches count no more in, an army uniform than in an engineer’s| overalls, a banker’s cut-away, of a statesman’s frock coat. \ From now'on, will a devoted wife be one who voted as her!husband said?

DON’T FORGET ' The value of our imports of manufactures dur- ing the first seven months of the current year was $1,032,000,000, compared with $423,000,000 for the first seven months of 1918, under the; protective tariff policyy, American manufacturers will remember that fact, mill hands should not : forget it, when they go' to the polls November 2.

BOLSHEVIST GOLD Last week the Federal Reserve Board-reported the arrival in this country of nearly $340,000 in Russian ‘gold, whence and to whom shipped no- body knows. Russia owes the United ‘States some $187,000,000, and is likely long to continue to owe it. If the Government can’t earmark and impound this mysterious Russian treasure, it has a'vital interest, not: only financial but socia] and political, in inquiring into the sourcé and purpose of this Russian shipment. Presumably the one use of real money, under the present benevolent Russian dictatorship of the proletariat, is to dis- semniate the gospel of destruction and the prop- aganda of revolution by fair means or foul, main- ly the latter. Whether by newspapers, secret agents, organi- zations of Communists, or bombs, there is only one object sought desperately in many ways, for the expenditure of Bolshevist funds. That so much gold should come without known consignor or consignee is highly suspicious. The Depart- ment of Justice and the Secret Service of the Treasury have set to work to find out from where and to whom the gold was shipped and for what. use it was intended. It is to be hoped that the} industry and ratiocinative faculties of the in-| quirers will be exercised with a better fortune than has} attended similar official investigations of bomb outrages,,which, aside from the dangers inherent in the business, seem to be one of the safest businesses *in the United States—New York Times, ‘ RETURNING LIFE ..

Counting only those establishments employing over 20 workers, up to Aug. 1, 1920, a total of 4098 establishments | were noted in the census taken by the govern- ment.

After I'd, got back home from Far- go, the nabors for miles aroun’ called to hear all about that convenshun, an’ so I told ’em all I knew an’ everybody was as pleased as a Kid with his first pair o’ pants, to think that the farm- ers would have a ticket all to them- selves an’ didn’t have to vote as the old parties told ‘em to. After while we got a lot of petitahuns to sign an’ I went aroun’ fot a week gettin’ sign- ers, in fact I did so much extra work that spring that Mary Ann said if I didn’t let up I’d have a nervous break— down, but [ wanted to help put our ticket across, breakdown or no break- down, an’ I done*it.

Just looked as if the weather man had taken a hand in affairs an’ wuz) determined the farmers shouldn’t vote. It rained a regular downpour,'an’ it thundered an’ lightened somethin’ awful. “Gosh,” I sez to Mary Ann, “here it is after ten o’clock an’ no lettin’ up.” “Hiram Joshua,” sez she, “if you be fixin’” to go to electshun through this rain you are mistaken. Don’t you know you might get the neumony an’ die from exposure?”’ “Mary Ann,” sez I, “if all the farmers stay home do you figure we're goin’ to elect our candydates.” “Well, she said, “thar’s been a good many elect- shuns before this, an’ ther’ll be lots more like this, too.”’ “No, Mary Ann,” —_—_—_——— The Best Cough Syrup is Home-made. Here's an easy way to save $2, and yet have the best cough remedy you ever tried. You've probably heard of this well- known plan of making cough ‘syrup at home. But*have you ever used it?

Or. if desired, use| clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup instead of sugar syrup. | Either way, it tastes good, never spoils, and gives you a full pint of better cough Temedy than you could buy ready-made for three times its cost. is Tt is really wonderful how quickly this home-made remedy conquers a@ cough—usually in 24 hours or less.

The ranch, originally known as the Beaver Creek stock farm, was bought by Fred E. Lee of Dowagiac, Mich., who increased the farm from 600 acres to 12 sections. The farm has gradually been cut, tracts being sold jin half section lots. During Mr. Lee’s ownership, M. Cone, manager, built up one of the best grain ‘and stock farms in the state, developing a herd of 400 Aber- deen Angus, Percheron horses of high grade and purebred hogs. , The ranch for years supplied the neighborhood with pure seed grain and did much to encourage a better grade of farm- ing among the farmers of the com- munity. Labor conditions making it impos- sible to operate the big farm as a :whole are responsible for its divi- siom into: parcels: 207 IN COUNTY GIVEN PAYMENTS FOR HAIL LOSS The total number of hail losses al- lowed by the state department during the present season, according to fig- ures compiled by the department, were 14,420 or 1,578 more than last year.
