Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1913-01-19

The legislative gossip writer OF the
Tribune says there is a report that the
county superintendent will have a strong
lobby In Bismarck this winter for the
purpose OF getting IL bill through IN
creasing the mileage from ten cents q
mile. The writer says there Is q large
sized club s~ecreted for use on such q
proposition. as the feeling is that ten
centavos is much-a plenty for a mile
travel. But il you ride in autos and pay
fifteen and twenty. how do you !expcc'
to keep up with the high cost or living
at ten? Our idea would he that 1t would
be cheaper to furnish the superintend-
ents with autos and pay the price OF 80
per school. 1t will come to the auto sup
ply plan one Of these d~ays.~-steele
Ozone.
While such a report as that referred
to has been In circulation. 1t is quite
likely thpt the majority Of school super
%intendeL%s throughout the state would be
against the idea of any Of their numDer
| lobbying in the interest Of such a bill.
