The net profits for the first three months of 1920 were $29,504, after setting aside $3,940 for depreciation. Farm loans actually made total $2,022,700, while loans ap- proved and in the process of comple- tion total $3,367,7560. The bank clear- ing business, which the Bank of North Dakota is handling for the private banks, averaged $1,534,000 for each business day so far this year and on one day reached the $4,000,000 mark. Between 900 and 1,000 soldiers’ bo- nus claims are being paid this month. It has been necessary to rule against some of the claims on the ground of nonresidence. Many Minnesota and Wisconsin service men, preferring the bonus laws of North Dakota to their home states, are applying for bonuses here when their applications should be made to their own states. Secretary of Agriculture and Labor John N. Hagan is attempting to sup- ply the demand for farm labor. He is making arrangements to bring a num- ber of families from the tornado- stricken districts of Illinois to North Dakota and also is supplying demands for single men for farmhands. Total 1919 road and bridge taxes in North Dakota, now being collected, amount to $5,843,873. This is almost double the amount of money being raised by taxes for state purposes, al- though the state levy includes $760,000 for soldiers’ bonuses. The Fargo unit of the Working People’s Nonpartisan Political alli- ance, to work with the League farmers in the coming election, has been or- ganized, electing Con Meyers presi- dent and Mrs. H. A. Rudd vice pres- ident. State Auditor Kositzky, who tried to pay all anti-League legislators and refuse salaries to all League mem- bers, has been told by the supreme court that he must pay all members of the legislature alike. Cass county records show lively trading in Red River valley farm lands, many sales being at top prices, which knocks to pieces the yarns that the League administration has hurt farm values. Residents of Bismarck are taking steps to put in a new municipal water system, or to take over the plant own- ed by Alex McKenzie, former Repub- lican old gang boss. MINNESOTA The Republican “elimination” con- vention, planned in defiance of the state primary election law, will be held in St. Paul May 8. The object of the convention is to unite all “pure” Republicans on one candidate in the hope of defeating the farmer-labor candidate. The candidates are not enthusiastic over the elimination plan. M. J. Dowling, Doctor Frank Nelson and W. F. Schilling, Republican gu- bernatorial aspirants, have said they would bolt an elimination convention unless conducted on the square. Ju- lius A. Schmahl, father of the elimina- tion convention plan and himself a candidate for governor, expressed him- self last week as doubtful whether such a convention should be held. A whirlwind campaign is on in Min- nesota to sell $300,000 stock in the Northwest Publishing company, the Minnesota Daily Star corporation, to enable the farmer-labor daily news- paper to begin publication in the next few weeks. The stockholders, at their recent meeting, voted to postpone pub- lication until $750,000 worth of stock had been sold. Returns from Minnesota city elec- tions show labor victories in all parts of the state. In Willmar labor forces elected their candidate for mayor and all candidates for council except one, who lost by five votes. In St. Cloud W. W. Matson, labor candidate, got 790 votes, as compared with 555 for his nearest opponent. Henrik Shipstead, farmer-labor can- didate for governor of Minnesota, will begin his speaking campaign about April 20. Other candidates will begin their campaigns at the same time. Thomas V. Sullivan, farmer-labor can- didate for attorney general, recently addressed a big meeting in St. Cloud. Organized labor throughout the state is anxious for a chance to hear from Doctor Shipstead, League-labor candidate for governor, and a series of meetings will be arranged that will take the candidate before practically all unions. Dates already are being made for League speakers at picnics next sum- mer, indicating the activity of the or- ganized farmers. IDAHO “While General Leonard Wood clubs are being formed throughout Idaho and the Wood boosters are emphatic- ally stating that the general is against any form of militarism, the Idaho Leader has received a communication from a returned soldier living at Ru- pert, who served in General Wood’s camp. He states that General Wood forced the soldiers to salute his empty automobile when they passed it. Farmers throughout Idaho are up in arms over the false stories which have been recently published by the Country Gentleman. That periodical has received a number of strong let- ters from Idaho farmers who are well acquainted with the League situation in North Dakota and know the Coun- try Gentleman articles are false. ‘While farmers of Idaho received $10 per ton for their sugar beets last year, the total cost of manufacturing sugar was not to exceed 614 cents per pound, |] according to an authority on sugar. Sugar is now selling around 18 cents per pound in Boise. Farmers received less than $1 per bushel for their potatoes in 1919. Potatoes are retailing in Boise at $7 per hundredweight at this time. SOUTH DAKOTA A report recently issued by-Q. H. Richardson, field agent for the bureau of crop estimates, throws much light upon the manner in which the farm- ers of the state are being hit by the slump in prices on what they have to sell, while the prices on what they buy are still on the increase. The re- port compares prices on livestock for 1919 and 1920, as follows: 1920 1919 Horses $58,149,000 $66,160,000 Mules ......... - 1,410,000 1,584,000 Cattle .......... 67,602,000 80,634,000 |1; Milch cows .... 42,075,000 46,002,000 Sheep .............. 8,500,000 9,882,000 Swine ............ 37,195,000 47,575,000 Total ........$344,764,000 $398,392,000 MONTANA In the city election in Great Falls labor candidates carried every seat contested except one, in which the labor candidate is three votes behind PAGE TEN ® ADVERTISEMENTS ARMY GOODS Purchased From the United States Government tents, pyramid skape, 16x16, each $35.00 Bnd. oo i vesineneses crat e Tarpaulins, 9x16, each Used army tents, pyramid shap Pup tents, each oach army aluminum canteens, each Smel hospital cots, each New hip rubber . 1912 model officers’ saddles, each .
