CAPITOL COMMISSION.

The Herald, as usual, jealous that
credit should be given any other than
its proprietor, INDUCES in three
quarters of a column of misrepresen-
tations, intentional or otherwise, rela-
tive to the capitol commission.
The action brought by the Fargo
builders and their attorneys did not
ask for permanent injunction nor
did it attack the constitutionality or
validity of the law. That action as
sumed and admitted that law to be
valid and merely asked that the then
pending proceedings under the law be
enjoined, the effect of which if sue
cessful would be that the commission
would at once begin anew.
We quote from the prayer of the
original petition: Wherefore, your
petitioner prays that an alternative
writ of injunction may issue enjoin-
ing said defendants from accepting
any bid under and upon the terms and
conditions Of said advertisement for
bids, and from making and entering
into any contracts in pursuance of
said advertisement, and that upon the
final hearing hereof such Injunction
may be made permanent"
Before the organization OF the Grand
Forks builders Mr.. Dinnie employed
an attorney to investigate the matter
and was advised the law was invalid
He refused to join the builders eX-
change unless the advice of his at
torney was followed The Grand Forks
builders organized and employed the
same attorney heretofore employed
by Mr.. Dinnie, the latter guarantee
ing that if the funds raised by the
Grand Forks builders We're INSULT
Client he would make up the deficiency
Upon the suggestion of the attorney
employed by Mr.. Dinnie and the
Grand Forks builders an amended
petition was filed which for the first
time attacked the validity of the capt.
toll commission law. ..
We quote from the prayer of this
petition: Wherefore, your petitioner
prays that an alternative writ of in
junction may issue enjoining said de-
PENDANTS from accepting any bid un-
der and upon the terms and conditions
of said advertisement for bids or
otherwise, or ut all, and from making
and !entering into any contract in
pursuance of said advertisement or
otherwise or at all, and from issuing
any of the certificates of Indebtedness
Of the state and from taking any &C.
ton of proceeding under said act, and
that upon the final hearing hereof
such Injunction may be made per-
manent."
That petition was dictated and
drawn by the attorney for Mr.. Dinnie
and the Grand Forks exchange and
proof thereof may be found in the
files of the supreme court if desired.
Upon the points raised, briefed and
argued by the attorney employed by
Mr.. Dinnie and the Grand Forks ex-
change the supreme court held the
law unconstitutional. The Grand
Forks. exchange paid its attorney
all the money it had raised and Mr..
Dinnie gave his personal check for
the balance thereof.
It was to the facts as set forth
above that this paper and the other
friends Of Mr.. Dinnie have referred in

Timely Advice.
CWahpeton Globe,1

It is amusing to watch the news
paper fight in Grand Forks. The Times,
goes after the dignified publisher OF
the Herald. and rips open his ele-i
phantine hide from stem to stern. The.
funny part of 1t all it that Brother
Winship has been forced to defend
himself. and his defense reads like
26 cents on the dollar. It would seem
like Winship ought to write 4 series
OF articles on the "Looting of the,
Grand Forks National Bank. and tell
all he knows about It. Perhaps the.
depositOrs and the state Of North Da-
kota would be interested Out with
the Looting Of the Bank, holy George.
and after that story is finished you
may go on with Looting Of Hans
brough or the Looting Of Alaska, or
any other old thing, but don't pretend
to be such a wonderful fellow when
you are not SO clean as the people
you criticise.

"A Logical Sequence.

Our contemporary down the street
would make it appear that the fate of
the nation depends upon the city cleo
ton at Grand Forks. All there ID to
it is that certain democratic gentle
man named Duis is running for mayor,
and republican gentleman named
Dinnie is his opponent. AS usual, the
treacherous Grand Forks Herald has
gone pack on the republican nominee
and, joining with the democratic
Evening Press, is supporting the DEM
ocratic nominee. AS this is Mr.. Pat
terson's democratic year, there is
nothing remarkable in the fact that
his sympathies are strongly EXPRESSED.
for said democratic nominee,
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1906-03-31

ent agitation will result in progress
and benefit to the people. Whatever
may have been the condition prior to
1904 1t is too clear for argument that
during the past two years there has
been serious and gross mismanage-
ment and negligence in connection
with the filter.
In comparing the Grand Forks with
the Lawrence filter the doctor fails
to take into consideration the great
difference in conditions, as for in
stance, the turbidity of the water,
character of impurities, etc.
Periodical examinations were made
of the filtered water during Mr.. Din
MES term and these all disclosed the
water pure and healthy; it remained
Tor the present administration to
create conditions under which the
chemical analysis discloses the water
to be not what it should be and to
contain as great percentage of al
bumenoid ammonia as does the river
itself.
We call attention to the report of
the chemical analysis of river water
made in September, 1908, by Profess
sor Babcock, at which time there was
under consideration the advisability
OF changing the mouth of the intake
pipe.
Lab. No 1454 being sample of
water taken from the west side of the
river below the bridge near the end
OF the pier showed albumenoid am
monia representing undecomposed or
ganic matter of O.26 parts per mil
lion.
The chemical analysis of the filtered
water made February &c, 1906, being
the water delivered to consumers in
the city of Grand Forks, showed of
albumenoid ammonia, being undecom-
posed organic matter O.26 parts per
million, or precisely the same as the
river water under the preceding an
alysis.
AS DR.. Wheeler says, the Grand
Forks filter is one with posts and by
that he means that there is a roof
supported by posts or pillars extend
ing through the sand bed and the
reason why more sand is required in
such filter is that the water is ant

rvulets next the posts without filtra.
ton; as the sand bed itself packs and
becomes harder, this tendency in
creases and today in the Grand Forks
filter there are three separate layers
of sand the lower one of which is
quite hard requiring actual force to
thrust the measuring rod through it.
There are "a of these 3-inch wrought
iron posts to which DR.. Wheeler
makes mention being an unusually
large number by reason of the large
area of the bed; it is customary to
have the sand bed divided into smaller
areas; by reason of the large number
of posts there is an additional neces-
sity for keeping the sand to the maxi
mum and making comparatively fire.

too thoroughly packed.
According to Mr.. Moran. who made
the measurements, there is % inches
OF sand at the minimum point in the
bed. The superintendent did not make
the measurements, but stood nea,

termined by the minimum measure OF
sand and this, according to Dr.
Wheeler, is from to 10 inches below
the safe limit.

worth so much to MI. Duis?

Don't let the Duis supporters

have the solid democratic vote and if
elected will, claim it democratic VIC
tory as he did two years ago. The
real issues locally are: :.
Competency VS.. incompetency;
Economy VS.. extravaganza.
The republican candidate stands for
the first in both issues.
