BISMARCK VERSUS PIERRE.

l infer that the Bismarck officials
are much more i~ncorruptible than
those Of II sister state, or the citizens
of North Dakota would have felt ere
this the necessity of holding over
them the power of popular veto to
their acts.
This has been accomplished across
the line by the constitutional amend
mentf making possible the initiative
and referendum. And they needed
it, l know, for 1 lived through two ses-
sions Of the legislature in Pierre.
1t is with q view to securing a live
interest in this subject before it is
forced upon our attention that the s.
Il. NJ. is conducting it's contest on the
subject Of direct legislation.
Letters Of sympathetic interest in
u work are pouring in from national
leaders all yer the country. 1 have
recently heard from the president and
secretary Of the antitrust league; the
state librarian Of Kansas, the governor
of Washington, the president Of the
Massachusetts, w. G. T. u, the secre-
tary Of the league Of American NUM-
cipalities, the right relationship league,
the national christian citizenship
league, and numerous prominent per-
iodicals.
All thinking, progressive people see
the necessity Of securing for the citi-
Zenship the privilege Of direct legis-
latlon, and every citizen of this state
can help along by cooperating in MAX
ing this prize essay contest a grand
success. If you cannot write on this
subject yourself you doubtless know
Of some bright pupil in public school
or college who can. Literature is COM
ing in from various sources so that for
10 cents in stamps I can mail to any
address a deal Of information on the
subject.
As the president of the national

strued and held, that in cases pending
or to be instituted in the district court
in any county in this state in which the
states attorney Is required to appear
officially as counsel and which are inn
pOrtant cases, said statute invests the
district judge with an exclusive dis
erection to appoint special counsel to
assist the states attorney and in such
cases the commissioners of the county
are without authority to appoint spe.
cial or additional counsel.
Chapter 120, laws of 1897, construed
and held, under section 1 of said chap
ter that in the cases in which the attor-
ney general of the state is required to
institute new actions or attend to pend
ing actions relating to the collection Of
taxes upon the lands of the Northern
Pacific Railway company that said
official is given absolute control in the
management of said cases and that as
to cases such as are so placed within
the official control of the attorney gem
eral that the commissioners of coun-
ties interested in the collection of such
taxes are without authority to employ
special counsel to attend to the same
or to perform services in such cases.
Held, further, constituting section 119
of the Revised Codes, that it is the duty
of the attorney general of the state to
represent the state of North Dakota in
actions pending in the supreme court
of the state, whether said actions are
civil or criminal and that tax cases
come within the provisions of said Sec
ton of the statute"
The total amount involved in the
suit of Kidder county against the
Northern Pacific is something like
$6O.oOO, comprising as it does taxes for
1889. 1894. 1896 and 1897. The road
has made several offers to settle the
taxes, offering as high as a lump sum
of $4,000 but the county has stead
lastly refused to accept any offers Of
settlement. Baker advised the COM
missioners after investigating the mat
ter that they had a good case against
the road and that all the taxes were
legal and in his opinion could be col
lected. His fee, had he been success
full in collecting the amount. under his
contract with the commissioners,
would have been $4,000, certainly a
snug sum. Under the supreme court
decision the case will have to be prose-
cuted by the states attorney, or the
district court may appoint assistant
counsel after the nswer has been filed
and the issue OF the case Joined for
trial.
