POLLOCK REFUSED
TO issue permit
mo TESTIMONY TO PROVE NE
CESiTY FOR SALE or LIQUOR
IN BUFFALO,.
Was First Application Before Judge
Under the New Law-Bateman's
Record 3,O22 Sales in Year.

Judge Pollock of the Third judicial
district, has denied the application Of
G. E. Bateman, a druggist of Buffalo,
for a druggists permit to sell liquor.
1t was the first application made un-
der the new law before the judge. The
application was rejected for the rea-
son that no evidence was produced
to show the necessity at Buffalo for
the sale of liquor. The record Of
Bateman for 1905 when he operated
under permit from the county court,
showing the sale of 1922 half pints
Of liquor, was introduced, which it is
believed. worked against him.
Judge Pollock stated his position in
open court at the time of denying the
application. He said, speaking gen.
eally on the subject, that under the
law it was up to the judges to consid-
er the expediency of every case in
which an application for permit
was made. The law leaves It wholly
to the discretion of the district Judge
and requires each judge to be salts
fed that the statements in each Pc
tition are true, and that the petition
er desires to sell liquors for medi-
cinal, mechanical, or scientific pur-
poses only.

BUT LITTLE Interest
IN DURUM DAY HERE
PEOPLE SEEM TO REALIZE SIG
NlFlCENcE OF THE
EVENT.
MiIlers, Farmers and Grocers to
Blame - Difficult to Obtain the
"Makins.'

1t is undoubtedly fact that there
were few people in the city who re-
allied the fact that Thursday was
Durum Day, set aside by a proclama-
ton of the governor as day on
which nuthing but durum flour should
be used in the kitchens of the state.
1t is due TO the lack of interest
shown by the people most interested.
the grain growers, in the proposition.
So far as the Tribune has been able
to find out there was no durum flour
for sale in the city, and so with the
exception of the few who sent to the
agricultural college for small pack
ages of the flour, there was none in
the city. There may be those who ex-
perimented with it and the Tribune
will be pleased to have them tell their
experiences for the benefit of the
readers. The biggest boosting that
has been done for durum flour has
animated from the A. C. at Fargo.
The idea of a Durum Day was cop
red from the famous Raisin day or
California, where the plans proposed
for here were used with great bene-
fit to the raisin growers Of the coast.
It is to be hoped that more interest.
will be taken in the event in this
state in another year

LEGISLATURE COULD
NOT GIVE THE MONEY
FARGO DISPATCH TO TWIN CITY
PAPERS GIVES WRONG I'M
PRESTON.
Silver Service for Battleship North
Dakota Must Be Bought BY Public
Subscription.

A dispatch to the Twin City papers
sent out from. Fargo gives the I'M
preston that Governor Burke is try
ing to knock the proposition of hav
ing the state donate silver service
to the battleship North Dakota, which
is now nearing completion. The dis
patch says that there is a feeling
throughout the state that the service
should have been purchased with mon:
ey appropriated at the last session OF
the legislature. Following is a part
of the special telegram sent out from
Fargo:
: There are many people who be-
lieve that it is a distinguished
honor to the state and the money
should have been appropriated
bv the legislature. In fact, such
a proposition was made at the
last session of the legislature,
but Gov. Burke served notice he
would veto the bill, and the mat
ter was dropped. Some people ad-
vocate delay until the next ses- .
sion and have an appropriation
made, but the battleshi7 will be
in commission by that time.
Inc IaCL OF Tue IHdCIOI - Iuos bAo
constitution of the state directly pro-
hibits the action suggested in the dis
patch and the governor called ,atten-
ton to the provision Of the constftu'
ton in his message to the last legis'
lature, as follows:
Our state has been recently
highly honored by having the
greatest and largest battleship
ever built named for her. It is
the custom for each state for
which a battleship is named. to
present the ship with a silver
service, and I am sure that this
will not be the first state to ig-
more the custom. It is at mat
ter of state interest and state
pride; but section 1876 Of the con-
stitution, prohibits an appropria-
ton for this purpose and the
amount necessary will have to be
raised by popular subscription.

OFFER SITE FOR
FINE BUILDING

If A. p. Gillies does not hurry
and perfect his plans for the cree
ton of the Imperial building,
some one else may start the build
ing of big block on the site. ].
G. Donnelly and Edmund Croft
own the property facing c and
Cliff av. and Mr.. Donnelly says
the will give it to any civic asso-
citation for the original cost and
the taxes and assessments. This
amounts to only about $4,000 for
the entire strip which has 200
foot frontage on C st. and is 100
feet deep. A fine building must
be erected on the place, however,
and no little two-story affair to
take advantage of this offer.
The Gillies subway franchise
will be passed by the council to-
might, 1t is expected and it will
be up to him then to get busy and

Although the policemen who
had arrested nine autoists for
speeding on Pacific avenue were
ready to swear that the machines
were exceeding the city limit of
10 miles per hour. when the cases
came up before Judge Arntson
yesterday afternoon they could
not say whether the automobiles
had gone faster than IL miles per
hour, and the judge Immediately
dismissed the cases.
The police had determined to
handle the cases as city cases, but
just before court had convened
the county attorneys office took
the MATER in charge, and made
out state charges against the
chauffeurs. When the policemen
were asked IL the cars were going
faster than IL miles per hour,
they replied, "No, we can't swear
to that, but according to the stop
watches, they were exceeding 10
miles per hour"
Further arrests will be made, It
is promised, and the police will
try to enforce the state law.
