ROM|NE DOESN'T

Peculiar Course of Count,
Auditor in Non-C Compliance
With Amended Law

The North Dakota statutes in
clude a law that directs the aud
itors of the various counties to
collect a fee of Is cents for each
certificate Of paid or unpaid taxes
that he attaches to abstracts and
instruments of transfer. 4 X
The law as it read prior to
March 3, 1911, did not provide
for the disposition of the fees
thus received and in some cases
county auditors considered them
as a part of the perquisites of
their office. This course led to
discussion and differences of op-
inion and to- clear up all ambi-
guilty and make the duty of aud
itors plain as to the disposition
of all fees the legislature passed
the act given in full below as an
amendment. The language Of
the law is so clear that it can con-
vey but one meaning. It says
that auditors SHALL receive such
fee and SHALL turn them over
to the county treasurer the first
of each month. The amended
law reads: L.. 4

Mrs. John Erickson is Ad.

Z Board Wednesday

Mary Erickson, wife Of John
Erickson of near Powers Lake,
was arrested Wednesday by re-
quest of her husband and brou-
ght to this city the same day
when she was examined by the
insanity board and committed to
the asylum at Jamestown. Mrs.
Erikson is 38 years old, is the
mother Of six children, the old
est of whom is Ia, and has been
a resident Of Burke county for
many years. This malady was
brought on as a result of nervous
trouble from which she had
been. suffering for some time,
and her husband as we'll as the
insanity board are of the belief
that after she is treated at the
hospital for a time she will come
out all right. She imagined she
saw ghosts almost all the time
and was also troubled some with
too much religion. She frequent

one of the best farmers in the

a splendid catch for some lady
who wishes to take advantage of

JACOBSON BLAMED
FOR LONG DELAY
MinOt Man is Said to be Cause
of Big Delay in Building
Normal School

Minot, N. D., April 2-That
Martin Jacobson, the Minot
member Of the state normal
board, is the power behind the
throne, who is holding up the
100000 normal school which
the state is trying to give Minot.
was the charge made at the
meeting Of the state normal
board this afternoon.
The mask was taken off at
this afternoons meeting. Grant
S. Youman, chairman of the
bankers committee which has
been trying to straighten out
the normal tangle gave a plain
talk, and his statements were
supported by several members
of the board.
Mr.. Youmans charged Mr..
Jacobson with playing the dog
in the manger act. He says
that Jacobson is stubborn, that
he is willing to sacrific the in
terests of the 5000 people in
Minot and the thousands of
school teachers in North Dakota
anxious to attend the Minot
normal, merely that he may
have his way
'"That man over there is the
power behind the throne" said
M1. Youmans. jacobson is
stubborn, and he has made up
his mind that he will have the
normal school on the South hill,
or he will smash everything.
He has forgotten his duty to the
state, to the people of Minot, to
the thousands of pupils anxious
to attend the Minot normal. It
is merely a selfish proposition on
the South bill.
I'VE have done our best to
bring about a settlement of the
normal case. The whole city is
practically unanimous in favor
of : a speedy settlement. The
people Of Minot are back Of the
board in whatever they do. The
action of Martin Jacobson does
not represent any part of the
people,"
Mr.. Rishworth, member Of
the board, indulged in nearly as
plain talk as did Mr.. Youmans.
''Mr. Youmans has got the
situation sized up right" said
Mr.. Rishworth.

When Samuel T. Sampson,
the shoemaker, came to his shop
to 60 to work on Friday morning
of last week he found that some
human hyena with malice afore-
thought had plastered up all the
front windows of the building
with mud during the night.
Sampson looked at the windows
and mud only once and then
saidsa few things that are not
fit to: appear in print in a re-
spectacle newspaper like The
Tribune. At first Sam was
fighting mad and wanted to have
someone arrested, but later in
the day he cooled off a little, and
then decided to let the mud
stand on the windows for sever
al days to show the people how
he was being abused. This
work was evidently done by
some kids just to make Sam mad

way they would have b cen dealt
with would have made. them
