but are not to be disturbed by Yagrant
or selfish complaints, made even be-
fore the work Is begun.
A fair-minded public will readily
realize the unusual character of the
task that the law imposes upon the
commissioners. They must complete
the building within the limits of a
specific sum. There must be no
deficiency when the work Is
finished. The federal government has
provided literally for public buildings
at the capital. The taxpayers Of the
state must not be called upon to make
restitution for official deliquencieg.
and the commissioners will strive to
avoid every excuse for final public
disapproval. At the same time they
are mindful Of the, fact that 1t would
be too much for human ingenuity to
lcontrive against the studied efforts Of
Isensationalists and others who are
morbidly inclined to find some food to
feed upon. 81
Therefore It was that the commits.
'sioners, with all the legal restrictions
and other moral considerations In
mind, determined that the safest
method was as the law permits to
have the total cost Of the work par
ticularly expressed in the several bida
and the subsequent contract; that all
parties engaging In the work or any
part on. 1t should be. jointly liable un.
der q common bond for the completion
Of the building, SO that there could be
no subsequent shifting OF responsible
.ty from contractor to architect or from
architect to contractor. as IL too often
the case. with the Inevitable de
ficiency to be met by the taxpayers.
II must not be forgotten that the first
duty Of the commissioners Is to the
state; lat the same time they hope to
have the respect and cooperation Of
the architects and builders.
# the commissioners shall succeed
in this high purpose; II they shall in
the end turn over to the state a
modern and enduring building with
the means provided by congress; ii
In the process the now. idle lands

n Before adjourning the Board Of
Capitol Commissioners on the 18th
gave out officially the following state
ment outlining the policy and purposes
OF the commission:
!, It is reasonable to assume that the
legislature that enacted the capitol
commission law fully realized, not
only its responsibility to the people
and the state, but as we'll and at the
same time the inadequacy Of the
present capitol building and the lack
Of facilities for protecting the rapidly
accumulating state records and the
state securities. No doubt It took into
account the fact that North Dakota
has passed beyond the period OF tenn
porary structure, and that the people
collectively have, as much pride IN q
suitable statehouse avs the individual
citizen has dn the modern residence
that superseded the sod house, in
which he first lived.
In 1883 an act was passed by the
territorial legislature Of Dakota pro.
viding for the removal Of, the capital
from Yankton to some other point, the
act requiring, as condition Of the
anew location, the contribution Of $780,.
600 in cash and at least $50 acres OF

these terms Bismarck was the success.

C~arollnlans delight TO enjoy all they

UNIQUE CLAIM FOR DAMAGES
Railway Sued for Injuries Received in
Fight Between Passengers.

T. D Collins has filed a unique suit
for damages against the Southern Rail-
way Company, claiming breach of coz
tract. Collins was a passenger on a
Southern railway train and J. ".
Pierce boarded the train with an open
knife in his hand looking for him. In
the fight which followed Collins cut
Pierce twice, one Ct the blows severing
the jugular vein, killing Pierce.
Collins claims his right temporal ar
terry was severed; he received cut IN
his head three inches long; his arr
was cut, the muscles between the
shoulder and elbow being severed; his
right thumb and nose were cut; his
under lip was cut entirely through in
two places; he was cut OIL the left side
of his neck, a cash about six inches
long from behind the ear to the chin
In all he received IA cuts. His injur-
les caused him to be confined to his
bed between life and death for several
months.
Despite the fact tht he killed his
man, Collins sues the railroad fir a.
600, claiming that officials of the road
knew that Pierce was looking for him
when he boarded the train with the
open knife in his hand. There have
been cases where railroads have been
sued for damages received in riots un
