| to inspectors of elections aut lorized
! tors holding office by virtue of theil
official capacity.
Only Provision for Appointment
The only provision relating to any
appointment of inspectors of cleo
tons by any board, city or county. Is
found in Section 600, R. C. 1905. which
says I'm precincts consisting of un
organized townships the board OF
! county commissioners shall-appon,
an inspector of such election. some
qualified voter of such precinct" This
is the only appointive power relating
to inspectors of elections authorized
under tne general election statutes.
No PROVISION Under Commission
System.
The city of Bismarck having gone
under the commission system Of gov.
eminent, which does not provide for
any election, excepting elections held
for city purposes and the primary
election being held for the nomination
Of state and county officers, and hav.
ing nothing whatsoever to do with any
city questions, nor with the nomina
ton of any city officers, there is no
provision for the appointment by the
city commission of inspection OF cleo
tions There being no such provision
under the commission system. and
there being no officer in the city OF
Bismarck corresponding to senior al.
dermen, Tho by virtue of his office be-
comes inspector of elections, the ap.
pointment reverts back to the law re.
lating to the appointment of inspec-
tors CT ELECTIONS in precincts consist
ing of unorganiZed townships, which
provides that the inspectors be named
by the board of county commissioners.
Senior Aldermen Provision Not Ap-
plicabIe.
II has been contended by some that
that provision of the law relating to
senior aldermen being inspectors of
elections in their respective precincts
is applicable to the city. of Bismarck
and commission governed cities. 1t
was the object of the commission law
to do away with aldermen and wards,
50 far as elections of city officials are
concerned. Therefore there are no
senior aldermen in the city of Bis.
marck, and there being no senior al
dermen this provision does not apply.
Six Precincts; Four Commissioners.
Any fair minded man can realize that
with only four members of the COM
mission and six precincts in the city,
even if each of the four commission
ers resided in separate precincts
(Which is scarcely probable, inasmuch
as they are elected at large), and
would serve as inspectors Of election

ELECTION INSPECTORS in CITY
MUST bE'NAMED BY COUNTY BOARD

At the meeting of the board of cit.
commissioners Monday evening Com
missioner Lucas introduced a resolu
tion that the city commission confirm
the appointment of inspectors Of
election in the city precincts for the
June primaries as named by the board
of county commissioners, and moved
it's adoption. President Williams ruled
that the motion was out Of order, the
city attorney having given the com
mission an opinion that the city had
nothing whatever to do with the ap
pointment of the inspectors.
Difference Of Opinion.
County Attorney w. l.. Smith sub
mitted an opinion to the board OF
county commissioners after it had
named inspectors for each precinct
stating that it had no authority to ap
point inspectors in the city precincts
The city attorney holds differently
There has been. a great deal of discus.
sion regarding this question, and
there appears to be a difference of
opinion in certain sections.
Old Law Applies.
Chapter 100, Session Laws of 1901,
known as the Primary Election law,
provides that Sections COS and 600,
Revised Codes of 1905, relating to the
appointment OF inspectors of elections,
be applicable to primary elections. 1t
says the provisions of the statutes
now in force in relation to the holding
of elections-the manner Of conduct
ing elections. shall apply to all pri-
maries." Hence the 1907 primary elec-
ton law provides that inspectors Of
primary elections be appointed in the
same manner as for general elections
No Provision for Appointment by City.
It is we'll known principle of law
that city has no authority except
that which is given to it specifically
by the statute creating the same. Be-
fore the authority could be vested in
the city under the, commission act to
appoint inspectors of elections for Of
ficers other than city officers some
authority must somewhere be found
authorizing such appointments. None
can be found.
Section sos, Revised Code of 1905,
relating to inspectors and judges Of
elections, reads: "The chairman Of
the board Of supervisors in organized
townships shall by virtue of his Office
be inspector of elections" Further in
the same section, 1t says: "In all
cities in which the aldermen are
elected in different years. the senior
alderman shall be inspector of elec-
tions for the precinct in which he re-
Sides" Neither of these provisions
contain any reference to appointment

A western newspaper is puzzled to
understand what becomes of our ora
tors. No less than seventy-two young
men and women have just received d.
plomas from single school OF public
speaking which, moreover, has been in
the business for many years. And yet
complains this writer, when one goes
to hear a modern Cicero, he finds
either a smug-looking gentleman with
fair delivery and no ideas, or a
person who evidently mas something
on his mind, but who is able to com
municate it only by serious OF spas
modic efforts that provoke sympathy
or disgust rather than delight. So
pessmstic is this observer that he
compares Mr.. Bryan to Webster, to
the disadvantage of the Nebraskan
There is doubtless some truth in this
view of the state of present day ora
tory. We are told now and then that
there is a greater number of skillful
writer's to-day than ever before, even
if literary geniuses are unusually rare,
but nobody has the courage to say
of the sort regarding our
public speakers. Probably the trouble
is that the graceful youth who charms
his friends tn Commencement day
with his eloquence, gets a job in the
fall in a bank, and forgets his oratory
in his. attention to the details OF dis
counts and collateral, while his room
mate, who never amounted to much
in college oratorical contests, sees
change to become prosecuting attor-
ney of Posey County, which oratorical-
~, is thenceforward doomed.

FACTS AND COST OF LIVING

FACTS AND Gust Or LIVING
In a contribution to symposium
on the labor unrest in England, Pro
lessor Ashley, an authority on econ
Omics. declares that in all probability
the high and rising prices Of the
necessaries of life cause more discon'
tent than any other factor Wages
have risen, but not at rate to keep
pace with advancing prices OF COM
modties; hence strikes and industrial
strife.
There are American authorities who
share this view. The average man or
woman is not conscious of the way in
which tariff laws, trust policies, gold
production affect his or her material
interests. But the cost of living is
brought home to the average family
every day in the year. 1t is discussed
at the table; it is thought of when
bills are received or paid. 1t influen-
ces political and other acton.
If this is duly considered, the gray
ity of the problem can hardly be exag.
gerated. For the question at once
arises. What can cabinets, parties.
employers do to remove the griev-
ance? How can they force the low
ering of prices?
OF course, they can do much to re"
duce needless tariff rates, to prevent
abuse of combination and to facilitate
cooperative buying, the organization
of credit, etc. But the evidence points
to deeper and wider causes of rising
prices. Here are few plain and
hard facts disclosed by official or
other statistics:
In the decade 19oO-191O the popula-
ton of the country increased 21 per
cent; the production Of cereals in
creased only IL per cent. The value
of cereals rose 80 per cent!
Again it has been stated that the
supply of cattle and sheep has been
very considerably reduced in one year,
the loss being about 100000.
The hours CT labor has been reduced
about rs per cent in several indust-
ries and about 20 per cent in many
more.
! Do not these typical facts indicate
that we are suffering from relative
scarcity, from failure of supply to
catch up with demand? In other
words, is not the chief remedy to be
sought in more and better farming,
in increasing production, in placing
aliens on land, in encouraging the de-
velopment of natural resources in ev-
cry legitimate way?
The business men OF the country
are interesting themselves in agricul-
ture. This is an excellent movement.
Let us all work for better agricultural
schools, the settlement of alien farm.
ers and laborers on land, intelligent
marketing of farm products, etc.
Here is great field for the co-opera-
ton Of all forces that are working for
prosperity and industrial peace.
