This Siljan, editor of the McLean County Independent, recently called on Sen- ator Gerald P. Nye to “bring what- ever proof he has of graft anywhere in the state administration to the proper tribunal, which in this case is the house committee” appointed by the recent abortive special session to investigate the Langer record. The committee evidently was in complete sympathy with this idea, for it practically dared the senator to appear before it and present the facts upon which he based his recent charges of “untold graft” in the Langer administration. during many of the last 10 years, is for water; that dams are merely a means to an end.

If the equipment is large enough and the power cheap enough it might be feasible. At least it is worth investigating. In considering means to remedy our present plight ne fetishes should cloud our minds to impartial consideration of the problem in hand. If a dam is im- practical we can dispense with it. The main thing is to get the water. In this connection, it is well to note a little story which appeared | tecently in The Tribune.

When they decline to hold public sessions they place themselves in the position of employes who refuse to take the boss into their confidence on matters in which that boss is vitally interested. The voters of North Da- kota should keep this fact in mind in estimating both the actions of the committee and the report which it probably will make as to its activities. Nye’s attitude in refusing to enter ® star chamber session is based on several very obvious conclusions. The Personnel of the committee as well as the fact that it holds its sessions in the headquarters of the Langer defense committee, indicates very clearly that it may be interested in suppressing facts inimical to the re- cent governor's interests.
