Bisbee daily review., 1907-06-27
THE NEW CHARTER.

The time is drawing negr when the people of Bisbee will vote on the adoption of the new city charter law passed by the last legislature. This law was very carefully considered by the legislature and has the endorse ment Of not only that body, but also is believed to be an improvement on the old charter law by the city coun- cilmen of every city in the territory to whom it was submitted before it was presented to the legislature in Phoenix. We must allow that the city officials of the territory, who have had experience in the management of the municipal governments are better able to judge correctly of the virtues of the new and old charters than those who have not been charged with a close study of conditions under which our city governments are carried on; we must also assume that these city officials have only the welfare of the cities where they live at heart.
 The editorial in the Evening Miner objecting to the new charter because it authorizes the city council to ac- euire properties, such as public utili- ties Of all kinds seems to us to be an argument in favor Of the new charter rather than an objection to it. The Miner claims that the council could buy 3 water company plant without the consent of the voters of this city. On this score the Miner is unneces- sarily alarmed as the city could buy nothing of the kind without getting the consent of the taxpayers for the issue of bonds with which to pay for them.
 The other objection urged by the Miner that the new city charter law gives to the members of the city council too much power, reaches the main point involved in the new law. The origination of the new charter vas to give this very power objected to by the Miner. It has been found where this plan has been tried that 1t works well to place the sole respcn- sibiiity for city government on the members of the city council, and to do this 1t Is necessary to give to them both the appointing and removal pow tr SC that they may control the aa- ninistration of every alice and sup plant fneniciency with efficiency when ever necessity requires.
 The new city charter has the en- dorsement of the present Mayor and tho eounciImen who endorsed it be fore it was enacted Into law. The people of Bisbee have ample lime in which to inform themselves concern ing the new charter law before inc vote Is taken next month. and we be- siese that 1T they will take the trouble to look closely Into the objections be- ing raised they wiH find that they are based on misapprehsnsson of what the new law provides.
 Certainly the people Of Bisbee would

The car shortage in North Dakota
this fall and winter it is estimated has
cost the farmers of the state at least
so,0OO.OO0. The car shortage is a serious
drawback to the prosperity of the state
and immediate steps should be taken to
relieve the congestion. just what this
may be is hard to determine, and many
plans are set forth. The railroads claim
that the immense amount of freight
traffic has left them without sufficient
equipment. Others claim that there are
plenty of cars at terminals, but a lack of
engines and employees is responsible for
the shortage. 1t is a question that the
legislature can take up with very good
grace. Maybe some one can provide a
means that will result in an improve
ment.

GOVERNOR Burke is at Bismarck, and
settled at the executive mansion. The
governor declines to say anything de-
finite IN regard to appointments. He
says he would appoint men who will per-
form their duties fearlessly and without
favor, He is ready, he says, to give all
a respectful hearing and will act for the
best interests of the state, as he viewes
it. There is a good deal of interest in
the three-cornered fight for the appoint
ment of supreme court justice t~osucceed
Judge Engerud. Winterer, of Valley
City, Ellsworth, of jamestown: and
Spalding of Fargo, are all said to be
fairly confident. Governor Burke is
said not to have given out any hint as to
who will be the winner. For game
warden of the first district w. A. Crazy,
Grand Forks; j. Woods, Bottineau and
l.. w. Deichert, Grand Forks, are max
ing quite a race. Governor Burke a y
his policy will be precisely as laid down
by the speakers during the campaign.
The railroads will o be unnecessarily
severely dealt with, but conditions de-
mand some sort of railroad legislation.
AS governor, it will be his intention to
rigldly enforce every law on the statute
books. 1t is immaterial whether or not
the law be a good one-the fact that it
is a law demands its enforcement.
Governor Burke says he will do every
thing in his power to accomplish this
end.

USED NO PASSES.

Governor elect Burke and members of
his family arrived at Bismarck on the
North Coast Limited, a train on which
no passes are honored.-News Item.
When G~overnor-elect Burke and his
wife and three children went to Bis
marclt last week they went on a train on
which passes have never been recognize
ed, hence it is certain that he paid his
fare and those of the members of his
family. 1t is probably many years since
such an incident has occurred in North
Dakota political affairs, and it is believ-
ed that it marks new era. 4 state
legislature may have little to do with
regulating the pass evil now that the
federal government has enacted a law
that limits the issuance of passes tt d
very small proportion of those who
formerly enjoyed the bounties of the
railroads in this respect, but the COVER
nor has set an example. Governor-elect
Burke's trip to Bismarck was made in
1906, when passes were legalized. and
that puts him in a class of his own
among the governors of North Dakota

OUR FSTRAY LAW.

The numerous cases of stock lost and
taken up which are reported in the state
press indicates that the estray law of
North Dakota needs a pretty thorough
revision. The present law permits stock
to u at large from the first day of
December to the first day of April OF
each year. 1t is unnecessary to say that
this law works hardships in a great
many cases. 1t is practically impossible
TO fence against a herd of hungry cattle
or horses. An instance has come to the
,aotice of the editor of this paper of a
herd of cattle breaking through a five
wire fence to get at the hay inside. In
ceases of this kind the legal remedy is
wholly inadequate. The injured far
mer cannot take the cattle up and adver-
tise them under the estray law. and as
we have no trespass law in this state his
remedy by civil suit is extremely hazard
Gus If not impossible. Take another
case: an animal came to a barn yard and
refuses to be driven off. The owner of
the farm Is debarred from taking it up
under the estray law. There isonly one
ching left. The animal must be cared
for through the winter or until the own
er arrives and claims it. After the first
of April the estray may be legally taken
up, but the expenses of wintering it
cannot be added to the costs. The es-
tray law may suit that portion of North
Dakota where grazing is a prominent
feature of agriculture: but the present
law is wholly unsuited to the conditions
existing today in nine-tenths of the
state.
