"The House Of God not only warns
against sin and exhorts to virtue; 1t
also gives to men sustaining reason
for being good. Nothing is more i'm

to the house than its foundation-to

character. not upon sielfIove which is

pared to ship carload Of wire TO the
contractor II the city would guarantee

remarked Alderman Don Leavy, who
was presiding.
Work Much DELAYED.
Superintendent Tranord reported
that the work on the overhead contract
was being, in his opinion. ..unnecessa-
rly delayed; that there was a lack
of material on the ground: that men
had been laid off, and present condi-
tons did not justify him in anticipat-
ing an early completion of the contract.
He presented correspondence with the
makers Of wire and mast arms. the
Roehin people expressing their Will
ingness to ship q carload of wire, now
ready, IL the city will guarantee pay
ment.
Charles Taylor appeared for Storms
y Co. making general statement. Ho
said he knew CT no reason why the
supply houses should have shut off
credit to his firm; no reason why the
ma tcTlal SnOuid not come FORWARD, un-
less Il was that Roeblin wanted to
hold him up" His firm had previous
" owed them larger amounts he
claimed, and 1t was inconsistent to
make complaint at this time. His
firm had not paid for material used
because all Of the bills had not yet
been paid by the city. He stated that
his firm had done. roughly, about
$4,000 worth OF work. and had been
paid $4,000. He seriously doubted
whether Roeblin really had the car OF
wire ready for shipment, and said he
knew the firm did not have it ready last
Friday.
City Pays Heavily.
In response to a statement Of Chair
man Don Leavy that the contract
called for completion Of the work on
November last. and What the delay
was costing the city in excess of 81 900
a month. through duplicate cost OF
operating the municipal electric plant
and paying the Virginia Railway and
Power Company for street lighting,
Mr. Taylor said that not until late In
December had the city completed con
tracts by which 1t secured the neces-
sary right Of way.
Several members OF the committee
proposed that the contract be rescinded
at once. and that superintendent Traf-
ford be instructed to buy material and
hire men and teams and complete the
work. Under advice of Assistant City
Attorney George Wayne Anderson. the

Be Ready For Launching.

The towers on either side of the
Missouri, which will be used to sup.
port the cable for the new ferry across
the river about three hundred feet
have been completed and all that
remains now is the stretching of the
cable across the stream and into pc.
sition. The cable has not yet reached
the city but has been shipped and is
expected here within two or three
days.
H. c. Rhud and Company are con-
structing the ferry boat and have al
most completed it. 1t will be ready
for launching in very short time.
This ferry will be large enough when
in operation to accommodate three
automobiles at one trip, or two two.
horse teams and wagons. The ferry
will be put in operation as soon as
possible and will prove great con-
venience for people who desire to
cross the river and who do not care
to wait evAry evening until the switch
engine takes the ferry cars over.

OFFICERS PREPARE FOR
SCnO0LO INSTRUCTION
NATIONAL GUARD OFFICERS OF
STATE WILL ASSEMBLE At
FORT LINCOLN.
FORT LINCOLN.
Three Days will be Spent in Studying
Field Duties and Other Things an
Officer is Supposed to Know.

On Friday, June 2, there will be
started at Fort Lincoln school OF
instruction for the officers Of the
North Dakota National Guard, which
will continue for three days. The
various officers from all parties of the
state are awaiting the event with a
great deal of interest.
Preparations are now being made
by the officers of the United States
Infantry who are stationed at the
post to have everything in readiness
for their coming. Most of the visit
ing officers will be encamped there
for the three days.
The school of instruction will be in
charge of Major Hasbrouck, 14th U.
S. Inf, and Lieut.. Ferguson, 14th u.
S. Inf, has been detailed as assis.
tant instructor. They will arrive in
the city few days prior to the start
ing of the school work.
1t is expected that nearly every
officer of the North Dakota infantry
regiment will be here. This plan Of
the instruction school is part of the
general plan of the War Department
to promote the efficiency of the ma
tional guard troops and to better fit
them for actual field service. 1t may
be possible that in another year or
so the school may be enlarged so as
to include all of the non-commission-
ed officers of the regiment as we'll.
1t is thought that a great amount OF
good will be accomplished by holding
this school this year.
