"By and large, people are going to get just the kind of
government they want and deserve. If public Officials feel
there is a wide circle of people interested in their work,

He certainly put his finger right on the spot. There
.t~tly is this lack or indifference and no one wants to exert

offieials,~-rbut there is no sustained effort,
However, the public is always long

THURSDAY, AUGUST 9,
A COMMONSENSE PROPOSITION
One of the most sensible suggestions that has been made
in late years is that by the attorney for the Montana-Dakota
Power company to the attorney general of North Dakotg, to
the effect that the federal court be asked to permit the
• :ndustrial service companies to pay the various counties of
the state the amount of tax paid in 1932 out of the money
paid into court pending a suit on the gross earnings law, the
balance to remain in escrow until the suit is ended. A tre-
mendous sum of money is tied up in this suit. It is lying idle
:n the court's vault, while many counties are in black need
of coin to carry on. If this arrangement is approved by the
court as to the Montana company it is believed the other
~ompanies involved in the suit will also fall in line, and
~round a quarter million dollars freed on tax account to the
:ounties.
Down in Mexico one of the governors has decreed against
the women bobbing their hair as a sin against their race and
treasonable to the state. Bobbed women's heads first came
into fashion in England in 1600 and was so much the rage
that when a fellow named William Prynne set up a tirade
long continued, he was finally dumped into prison, had both
ears cut off and had SL ("seditious libeller") branded on his
face. Something like that ought to be done nowadays to
those who think they have the right to prescribe what others
shall do, think and wear.
Whoever coined the phrase, "North Dakota's Sweet-
heart, for Mrs. William Langer, at the Republican State
committee meeting, made a happy allusion to a very fine
woman, and undoubtedly it wiR stick to her all through the
campaign.. All who know the lady intimately, whether her
political friend or foe, can attest to her many fine qualities.
Her father was a famous New York architect, so, maybe, if
she wins the governorship, she has inherited the qualities
that will enable her to build a greater and better North
Dakota.
All the removals from state jobs going on at Bismarck
are only what happens every time there is a marked change
in administration, but it looks, from what" is said over the
state, as though another sweeping change will occur soon
after January first. That is the "star in the night" which
many of the deposed state employes see shining in the
heavens.
If the legislature really wants to sift the spoils system
out of the state government, all it has to do is create a civil
service law that will actually do the business, and keep the
men in office who really earned that right. In years gone by
there has been much talk on this subject, but no party, nor
administration, has yet had the sand to turn the trick.
We wonder if the American people would take so kindly
as does Germany to a Hitler taking over supreme power
almost before the breath was out of the body of his superior
officer? Maybe they would, as they seem to have become
mighty docile in the hands of leaders in whom they have
faith.
