ordered in January last to force the dis
charge Of two non-union men, Is the only
one now TO be settled. Committees OF the
Metal Trades Association and the Marine
Trades Council are TO meet this week to
try to end this strike.
This il the first labor trouble the New
York Civic Federation, which was organized
a little over two weeks ago as branch OF
the National Civic Federation, has taken
a hand in. and all hands declared yesterday
that 1t had won victory.
The meeting at which the settlement
OF the strikes was agreed on began yes
terday afternoon at $50 at the headquarters
of the National Civic Federation, ISL Fourth
avenue. and lasted until after hah-past 0.

MARRIAGE LICENSES.

Licenses to wed have been issued dur
ing the week by Hon. H. f. Dorval. of
the county court, to the following par
ties:
On Saturday, August Sth. to Mr..
Gisley G. Christianson and Miss Annie
f. Moller, both residing in the vicinity
of Milton. The ceremony was perform
ed at the Methodist parsonage in this
city by Rev. Marsh.
On Tuesday. August 1lth, to Mr..
Eugene Diemert and Miss Annie Drury,
both of Stilwell. 1t is only fair to say
that the ceremony, which in this case
was performed by Judge Dorval at his
Office, was given an impressiveness that
only comes with the experience of a
past master. The contracting parties
have many friends north of town who
extend sincere we'll wishes for the
future.

| 3. Section l62 of the state constitu-
(: ton restricts the board of university and
/ school lands to four classes of securities
as investments for the permanent school
fund. one of which is bonds of the state of
North Dakota. The state obligations
designated by this section as "bonds of
the state of North Dakota" include only
such state bonds as are valid and con-
within the constitutional
debt limit and so certified by the state
auditor and the secretary of state. and
the payment of which is secured 10y an
irrepealable tax levy in the act authoriz-
ing their issuance.
Chapter 49, laws of 1903, which au-
thorizes the issuance of 100000 in bonds
for the purpose of procuring funds to
erect and equip buildings for the state
normal school at Valley City, and ap-
propriate sufficient portion of the
interest and income dedicated to the
support of that institution to repay the
principal and pay the interest on the
sum so borrowed, is unconstitutional and
void for the following reasons: o. 1t
authorizes the creation of state in
excess of the state debt limit, in viola
ten of section 1872 of the state constitu-
ton: ~, it authorizes the creation OF a
state debt and does not provide for a tax
levy to pay the principal and interest, as
required by said section: 81, it diverts
the interest and income dedicated to the
support of this institution to the pay
ment of state debt, in violation both
of the enabling act and of the state con-
st!tution.
5. Under the authority of this act,
bonds to the amount of 100000 were is
sued and the same were purchased by
the board of university and school lands
as an investment for the permanent
fund belonging to the common schools:
1t is held, on an application to compel
the state treasurer to pay warrant
drawn for the purchase price of said
bonds, that said bonds are void because
of the invalidity of the act authorizing
their issuance and for the further reason
that they are not certified to be within
the debt limit, as required by section
1877 of the constitution, and that in re-
fusing to pay said warrant the state
treasurer acted in accord with his legal
duty as the custodian of the state fund.
