When the city council meets in Z

portant ordinances--one covering the
use Of the city scales and the other
providing for the inspection of build.
ings by the fire department-will be
introduced.
The city scales have been installed
for some little time and are ready
for use. and consequently immediate
action regarding legislation covering
their use 10 desired. The ordinance,
Is it row stands. would make weigh
Ing on the city scales compulsory. but
whether or not the council desires

preliminary negotiations and make
early preparations. al much depend
ed on the action Of the board at this
to lose any time in making their pre-
parations. but he believed that a mat

important that the board should rush
the anatr, n probably overlook
something very important.
He referred to the possibility of the
BOARD being criticised for making a
Tip Z other towns to inspect court
houses, but he advised the board to
DO so. He said that the building Of
the court house was one of the most
important steps the county has been
called on o take, and he expressed
the belief that nothing should be left
ndone to make It a success. Expert
knowledge is needed, he said, in maxi
ing the preliminary arrangements for
he said the best way to get It was
BY inspecting other buildings and
talking with other officials who had
been through the same work. he
advised the board to take along the
county surveyor. so that he could
make rough sketches Of other build

ELIMINATE O F
DRINKS FROM THE
BILL

Inspection Of soft drinks, az pro-
vided in the original draft OF the in
section bill proposed by the North
Dakota Enforcement league, will not
be insisted upon by the promoters Of
the movement. At a Joint meeting
Of the legislative committee and the
executive board Of the state league the
question was discussed thoroughly and
that feature OF the proposed bill was
dropped. It being believed wise to do
so. North Dakota soft drinks manu-
.~facturers had raised a great protest
against the PROPOSED provision.
Az the bill now stands Il relates to
Intoxicating liquors only. and the
league ofhcials have determined to
make q vigorous campaign for the
passage Of the measure.
The prohibition forces Of North Da-
kota have also decided to take an &C.
tive part in the promotion Of the Ken
yon bill before congress. This bill re-
lates to the shipment Of liquors into
prohibition states. The North Dakota
Enforcement league. the North Da-
kota w. G. T. U. and the Scandinavian
Total-Abstinence society will each
send a delegate to Washington In sup
