Finkle's Figures.

Finkle's Figures.
 Mir. Finkle's estimate for betterment and repair work necessary to safe operation of the system was $55,346 {; for operation and maintenance, $153,- 453; total expense for the year, not including receivers salary, S20S,799. hls estimate of revenues was $359,912 leaving a surplus of Sl51 ,113. Mir. Finkle arrived at his estimate of reve- nue by assuming that the valley will require and the receiver will be able to deliver twenty per cent. more water than was ordered during the past year. a total of 637 ,024 acre feet. He said he did not base his estimate of annual expense upon any part of the Ea a-t year prior to the receivers appoint ment because he did not consider the former management of the U. D. Co. as competent or economical as the re- ceiver's The emergency work advised by MT. Finkle was as follows: re- moving trestle, S1000; dredging, $36,- 900; repairs to gate at heading, $2,000; Alamo levees, $5,115; Encina canal evees, $l,700; East Side main, ,$2, 600; check al Fern heading, S1,500; repairs to old waste in No. s, $1,O00.
 A. IT, Andrade, secretary of the So- ciedad and depositario of that com pany under the Southern Pacific's at tachment testified that the revenues of the Mexican company from water service were about $1,000 a month, and that he turned the money over to w. J. Doran, who, he presumed, de- posite,. it in a Mexican bank to the credit of the depositario. The sal aries of employees, he said, are paid with Mir. Dorans checks upon a Los Angeles bank. As depositario, he claimed no jurisdiction or authority over deliveries of water to American companies. The Sociedad owns 75, 1000 acres of land, valued at $35 an acre, all of which has been attached by the Southern Pacific.
 It has been made plain during the hearing that most of the new, work proposed by the receiver would be advisable if he had the money with which to put the system in condition satisfactory to the engineers, but q great deal of it cannot be considered emergency work and is not indispen- sable to operation of the system du- ring the next twelve months. The receiver and his engineers have called attention to defects of the system and if those defects are not remedied, they cannot be charged with failure to point them out or held responsible for any damage that may result from postponement of repairs. If the Dur- pose of the proposed increase of rates was to awaken the water users to active interest in the water problem and to their responsibilities it appears to have succeeded.
 The hearing also brought out more clearly the Southern Pacific's relations to the irrigation system, the extent of it's interest as a creditor and the de- gree of protection which it has se- cured through judgments, assignments and control of the canal companies. all of which information will be of use in negotiations for acquisition of the system by the people of the valley.

replace the weir. The wooden struc- lures at Sharp's and Five Gates, he said, were in sound condition and did not need more than minor repairs. No great damage would be done if the gates at Sharps should go out. The east and west sides might. be deprived of water for few days, but repairs could be made in a week. Dredging cut-offs in the Alamo channel, he said, did more harm than good

DRUG permits TO Be
ISSUED BY The JUDGE
NEW LAW Is HELD TO BE CON
sTITUTIoNAL ~ THE 81.
pREME COURT.
Decision Was Unanimous - Some Of
the District Judges Had Refused to
Consider Applications.

The new drug permit law, which
puts the granting of permits up to the
district court: is constitutional.
This is the unanimous decision of
the supreme court in an opinion hand.
ed down yesterday.
Some O: the district judges have
refused to consider the matter of ap-
plication for drug permits, holding
that the law was Unconstitutional.
The supreme court takes the oppo-
site view, and decides that the law
is not unconstitutional, but the du.
ties are held to be administrative and
not judicial.
The case in which the opinion was
filed came from McHenry county. An
action in mandamus was brought
against the county Judge and appeal
ed to the supreme court.
The opinion of the supreme court
will result in the passing upon of
these applications as the law scontem-
plates. The syllabus is as follows:

Bagley, as judge Of the county court
of MdHenry county, North Dakota.

1. Chapter 1873, laws Of 1909, which
imposes upon district judges certain
duties relative to the issuance Of
druggists permits, Is not uncQnstitu-
tional, although such duties are held
to be administrative and not judicial
in character.
2. Such statute is not repugnant
to section 100 Of the constitution of
this state in depriving applicants for
such permits Of the right of appeal.
Said section 100 is held not mandatory
but merely permissive, and further
more, it has no application to decis-

NO INDIGESTION OR
stomach DISORDER

Why not get some now-this mo-
ment, and forever rid yourself of
stomach trouble and Indigestion? A
dieted stomach gets the blues and
grumbles. Give it good eat, then
take Pape's Diapepsin to start the d.
gestive juices working. There will be
no dyspepsia or belching of gas or
eructations of undigested food; no
feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach or heartburn, sick headache
and dizziness, and your food will not
ferment and poison your breath with
nauseous odors.
Pape's Diapepsin costs only SO cents
for a large case at any drug store
here, and will relieve the most OBJ
stinate case of indigestion and upset
stomach in five minutes.
There is nothing else better to take
gas from the stomach and cleanse the
stomach and intestines, and, besides,
one single dose will digest and pre-
pare for assimilation into the blood,
all your food the same as sound,
healthy stomach would do it.
When Diapepsin works, your ston-
ach rests-gets itself in order, cleans
upland then you feel like eating
when you come to the table, and what
you eat will do you good.
Absolute relief from all stomach
misery is waiting for you as soon as
you decide to take a little Diapepsin.
Tell your druggist that you want
Pape's Diapepsin, because you want
to become thoroughly cured this time.
Remember, if your stomach feels
out of order and uncomfortable now
you can get relief in five minutes.

And then-'long in July 'twas-Betsy

And both Of 'em was sopping wet

1t turned out that the mans name
was Lamont, with coloners pennant
and a million dollar mark on the fore
top Of 1t. and the girl was his daugh-
ter Mabel. They'd been paying SO a
day each for sea air and clam soup
over to the Wattagonsett House In
Harniss. and either the soup or the
air had affected the colonel's head till
he imagined he could sail boat all
by his ownty-donty. Well. he'd sailed
one acrost the bay and got becalmed,
and then the tide took him among the
shoals ut the mouth of Wellmouth
crick. and there. owing to mixup
OF tide. shoals. dark and an overdose
OF foolishness. the boat had upset and
foundered and the Lannon'S had wad-
ed half mile or SO to shore. Once on
dry land they'd headed up the blufr
for the only port in sight. which was
the poorhouse. although they didn't
know 1t.
The widow and Asaph made 'em as
comfortable as they could. rugged 'em
up In dry clothes which had belonged
to departed paupers and got 'em some
thing to eat The Lannon'S was what
they called enchanted" with the

Then after spell Of this Mabel
wanted to be shown the house, SO as
to see the sweet. old fashioned

talking man in the dime museum. And
the way them Lannon'S agonized over
every rag mat and corded bedstead
was something past belief. When they
was saying good night-they had TO
stay all night because their own
clotnes want dry. and those they had

Next morning they was up early and
