Bismarck Tribune, Dear Editor: Have read your article “Not a Farm Issue”. You sure hit the nail on the head. ‘What bothers the Farmer is the high taxes. We are spending millions of dollars to enforce a law that simply will not be enforced. In a well known magazine they claim that six billion dollars are made by the Wirkey Kings | and Beer Barons in a year, but what! do we get out of this. Everyone engaged in any legitimate | enterprise is compelled to pay County, | State and Federal tax but what about | the liquor traffic? Not one single op- eration of this great traffic from the still to the consumer, never comes un- | der the eye of a State or Federal In-| spector nor the Pure Food and Drug Act. | And yet in this country, the greatest | on the face of the earth, with every-, one trying to balance our budget, we are struck with the fact that our! greatest industry, constituting the, most prolific incubator of criminal; activities ever conceived by the brain cf man, goes merrily on, unregulated, unrestricted, uninspected and untaxed.
