W. headquarters at Bemldjl were raided and the members of that Infamous organization were driven out of town, there ^ras seized, among other things, a collection of I. W. W. literature, some of- which makes very interesting reading. There is a song book, identical in matter with the one from which quotations were made in The Heratd some weeks ago. That boqk is full of songs tending to create a feeling of class hatred, which is the breath of life to that organization. There are statements of the principles on whloh the organization-^is founded. One thing-which is'insisted on all the way through Is' that wage earners and employers have nothing in common. That is one of the, cardinal principled of the order, and every official and organizer is required to be able to state that principle before he is considered a proper person to spread "the I. W. W. propaganda. There was talk in this state some time ago of mak ing an agreement between the farmers of North Dakota and the I. W. W. for the purpose of insuring a plentiful supply of labor and avoiding the disturbances which were threatened if no such agreement was made. The promoters of that proposed agreement doubtless knew the character of the society to which the North Dakota farmers were to 'be tied. There is an old saying that he who would sup with the devil needs a long spoon. No spoon was ever made long enough to make It safe for the farmer to do business with a society which preaches that employer and, employed have nothing common. Such an agreement would be one between the citisen who recognizes the force of a contract, apd who is trying to develop the common Interest of em. ployer and employed, and the man who recognises noth ing of the sort, but who advocates and practices, when ever opportunity offers, acts which will annoy and Injure his employer. The respectable man who sits down to a banquet of that sort is pretty sure to burn his tongue or VtS his fingers. ... WAR WITH AUSTRIA Jn Jf*"'* -Sih, news dispatches say th^t *ilstrla may soont- do Ijti y^ar^'war dfa t$» United States on the g*ottiid "that this R« Icouatry has furnished financial aid to Italy. That reason le, will serve as well as another. It will be news to a good da 'many people that we are not now at war with Austria. We have discontinued diplomatic relations with her, almost invariably is followed by war. But as yet i^there is no actual state of war between the two coun .-tries. But we cannot very well be at war with Germany ^Jand at peace with Austria. The two countries are allied »|§slln this war. They are parts of the same combination. Austria's success is Germany's success, and Austria's de feat is Germany's. Under the circumstances our attitude .toward Austria must be one of hostility. We hope (or success of the Italians who are now crowding tha ^ff'jAustrians hard. Just as w)e hope for the success of the |M|®*rMich and (British on the west front, and for the same &|§reason, namely, that It will tend to weaken the power •^|of Germany, with which nation we are actually at war. It happens that conditions have not yet arisen which sAlgmakes It necessary for us to include Austria among our ^^Adversaries. But the conditions will be different when g|?|we have large armies in the field, when our men are Ai s-tf ..actually participating on a large scale In battles. Aus Au m*y be exPected Betters From II IP Our Readers Eefhtetfnjg Against Imaginary Evils. Before attempting to remedy an evi( it is first necessary to determine whether the evil Is real or imaginary. That proposition seems to be so Simple and self-evident as not to be worth the stating, yet many a law has been passed and many millions of dollars have been squandered in try ing to remedy imaginary evils. It is said that the miller has been making extortionate profits, that he is in the tree of high finance and we are asked to smoke him out and' bring him to earth- by using the fire of state owned fiour mills. Let's first find .out whether the miller is roosting in that tree. We may burn our fingers. ,ftll our eyes with smoke and' ho miller drop down—then turn around and find that 'the miller has all the time been standing right on the ground with the North Dakota farmer and business man, making on ly reasonable profits. In some years making only big losses.^ How foolish we .will then feel: Would it not be wise to spend a few million dollars for an investiga tion by experts of the matter of pro fits, on the marketing of farm pro ducts? It seems to me to be goe4 business policy to know something about the prospective profits and the cost1 of establishing Industries before Investing millions of gollaijr in thoee industries. It seem* however, that the issue ts to b® forced on us wM«Ut proper in vestigation. There is one book oil the subject that every votes should read, re-read and studr carefully before oiag te tbfe poft» ln'l*18.

Ae near as I can determine from reading government bulletins and re ports' and books like Weld's "Market ing of Farm Products," the grain and meat business is splendidly organized so as to give the maxlmuin price to the producer. The one exception is Ladd's Feed bulletin and, after a careful study and analysis of that bulletin. It seems to me that the con ditions as they actually exist do not warrant the conclusion tnat Ladd reaches in that bulletin. Profs Ladd is probably unsurpass ed as pure-food expert and practical chemist in determing food adultera tion/ but as a miller, a business man and a student of economics, I believe that his "conclusions should have only the weight that would attach to the conclusions ef a novice. Let me quote from Weld, p. SOS. "It is perfectly safe to conclude that the net profit per pound of beef taken by tlie packer is an unimpor tant item of the spread between pro ducer and consumer, and that he makes his return on capital invested by doing an* enormous volume of bus iness."1 '. Weld makes a similar statement with regard to the .marketing of wheaten p." p. 182-183. In other words if Weld and the V. 8. government experts are correct, then even if North Dalcota establishes state owned- flour mills, terminal ele vator* and packing plants and even if they are all successful, the -farmer will derive unimportant .benefit from them. Do the prospective ^benefits warrant the costly and risky experi ment of state ownership o. H. Johnston, "*•••& 7TO! WW. iem toward Austria so long as she ii allied with Qer many. The actual recognition of a state of war between the two countries will have little Immediate effect. Prac tically we are at war now. But Austria cannot very well get us, and our troops will have many things to oc cupy their attention elsewhere. S3 CONTROL OF EXP0RT€'^% The control of American export -business has now. been formally taken ever by the administrative board which 1s to have charge of'it, and the work may "be ex pected ta go forward more rapidly than it-has done since restrictions were placed on export business. The-United States is the greatest source of supply tor most of the things whloh are needed in Europe, and which Kurope dees not produce in sufficiently large quantities. Outside of the colonial possessions of the British empire it is practically the only large source of supply for the great'bulk oKcommodities needed. Upon the government of the United States rests the responsibility for such reg ulation of export business as will tend most effectively to promote the succein of the cause in which 'the United States is enlisted in this war. Three duties press upon us. First, we must supply ourselves and our allies With commodities for, use in the flelJ of warfare and for the use of the domestic population. In this matter of supply no distinctions can be made' between civil and military populations or between what are often considered respects lvely military and non-military supplies. This is not a war of armies, but of peoples.* The laborer in the field, the machinist in his shop, and the banker in his office, if the work of all these men Is properly directed, are just as necessary to the prosecution of the war as is the soldier with rifle and bayonet.- And the bushel of wheat that is raised oft the North Dakota prairies, and which is to be consumed by the farmer's own family or by his neighbor In the city, is just as truly a munition of war as is the cannon that, is manufactured in an eastern factory, and which is to be used to blast a way through German trenches. Hence, we must see to it that both our own population and the people of the nations allied with us are supplied, so far as is possible,. with everything that they need. Second, we must prevent supplies from this country from reaching our enemies directly or indirectly. We woulf not think of permitting guns or shells made In this country to be sold to Germany to be used against us. It would be equally absurd for us to strain ourselves to pro duce food or anything else with which to strengthen our selves and our allies, and then to permit similar commodi ties to go to the Germans to strengthen them in their fight against us. And the imperative policy along this line Includes not merely the prevention of goods actually shipped from-^thls country reaching the GermanB, but equally the prevention of their shipment to any quarter whence they will be used as the basis of exchange with Germany. That involves strict supervision of everything shipped to neutral countries. That supervision is, bound to result in Inconvenience to many of our friends. That cannot be helped.' It is bound to result in friction. That must be smoothed out as best it may 'be. But we are en gaged til a life or death struggle, and we must perform our work even though we wound the sensibilities of our friends. Third, after having supplied'ourselves and our allies, and after having taken all possible precautions against supplying our enemies, we must supply the actual needs of neutrals ait far as Is possible. The war has brought great hardships to the smaller European nations which still remain neutral, and it is our duty to relieve those Bufferings as mueh as we can. The duties of the export administration will require ability, courage and tact. STATE TAXATION There was a lot of talk last year about high state taxation, and the people were given to understand that' when the administration of state affairs passed into the hands of the people now In authority state taxes would be greatly reduced. Sometimes definite' promises were made to that effect. Often the promise was left to be inferred, The state equalization board has just completed its wprk for the year. It has increased the state valuation in roun& numbers IS per cent over the valuation-of last year. Then it has.levied on Sfiat "increased vj»luatlop a tax- 8 v6r cent greater thin the rate 'of last year, The result iia a net'in crease, of about IE per cent in taxes. In other words, for every $100 paid to the state in taxes last year, fl25 will be paid this year. Thiu do promises, expressed and Implied, go glimmering. The Herald wishes it to be understood that at this time it is not criticising the action of the board in in creasing the valuation or raising the rate. Those are mat ters to be considered by themselves^^and the acts are wise or unwise according to the need which existed and the conditions which brought about that need. But the point is that the people whet made loud promises of retrenilv ment were successful in the last election. They elected the entire state administration with the excepeion of one official. They elected enough members to place them selves in unquestioned control of the house. By a few votes they were in the minority in the senate. But no bill carrying the appropriation of a dollar for any pur pose could have become a law unless the house passed it and the governor signed It. The equalization board is ab solutely controlled by, the same ^lament. Therefore the people who made the promises have K&d matters in their own hands, so far as the sise of the tax levy is concerned. Tet the reductions have not-been made. Instead-there has been a very Wge Increase. It is clear that those ,who talked lower taxes either did not know what they '^ere talking about, or that they were insincere. Wales. X.
