BILL ON SPECIAL
VERD|CTS VETOED
Hanna Contends That Long
Established System Should
Not Be Disturbed.

Special verdict in criminal and civil
cases will continue in North Dakota.
Governor Hanna refusing to sign S. Is.
322, which provided for their abolisll-
mcnt. His message of veto follows:
Il file herewith senate bill No. 1922;
an act pertaining to verdictS and find
ings and abolishing special vcrdicts in
civil II criminal actions without my
approval for the following reasons:
"This proposed law abolishes spe-
cial verdictS in all civil causes. 1t
thereby effects a most radical change
in the existing statute on the subject
without corresponding benefits. our
present law on the subject is Of long
standing. having been. adopted i'll 1865
as Il part of the code OF civil procedure
borrowed from the field ode of New
York state. and it is in harmony with
the practice in most. il not all, the
code states. or those having the re-
formed procedure. The fact that it
has stood the test of this long period
of time-fortN-tive EearS-without ma
terial change is quite persuasive proof
that it is meritorious. If it is unwise
legislation, then it would seem that 1T
would have been discovered by the
bench and bar and Il repeal thereof
demanded long since. The proposed
legislation would require the courts in
All cases TO instruct the jury generally
hpon the law OF the case and necessi-
tate he application by the jury of
such law to the facts of the case. and
in cases Involving numerous and COM
plicated issues and questions of law
this is often impractical. In such
eases the present statutes authorize
the court To direct the jury to alerelv
find the facts, leaving it to tho court
thereafter 10 apply the law to such
facts. Ry such practice errors are
frequently eliminated and expensive
mistri,!s obviated.
"Eelleving that the proposed change
would prove detrimental rather tina
beneficial to the administration Of
Justice. withhold NY a%pproval."

How to be Strong
THE FTITEST

lBy Montgomery Irving, Phi. ID
For many wears I have been IL psr-
sistent student of the apparent physi-
cal condition of people. So closely
have / followed his up that now
whenever ! notice a man. or a woman
particularly, l find myself mentally
diagnosing his or her physical con
clifton as far as health and strength
show themselves superticially are
concerned. This habit has become a
second nature with me.
In Weighing i'm my mind the physi-
cal fitness of people by their outward
appearance I am always able To place
an individual in one of five classes,
namely:
1. The Ff,tcst.
.. The Finest.
5. The ~ITrccst.
4. The J%'attcst.
). The F'railest.
1t is not at all necessary to say
which of the foregoing five is the pro-
per class to belong to-, but hould any
of my readers be SO dense" or even
prejudiced against physical training
that they cannot Or will not pick out
the proper class for Il normal person
to put himself in l will say that it is
The Fittest.
The Fittest arc those of the great
multitude who are models of physical
%splendOr upon which the less fortun-
ate look with hungry eyes. n man
or woman of this. class is happier. with
a brighter, snappier sort of happi-
ness than one of The Freest or one of
The latest.
reaching The Ffttest class is" Moder-
alton in all things" The Eittest eat
enough of good plain food-not as
much as they could cat. but ns much
as their system requires. When they
are thirsty they drink pure water. be-
cause they know hat their systems
need it for flushing and lubricating
ture of new blood. The Fittest par
take freely of fresh. pure air: they
or go through those scientific
movements which bring~into activity
all the rgans of the body. the 4O5
muscles and 200 bones. They do this
not by spaslns. but regularly. every
day.
The Fttcst play proper games at
the proper time and cease. aus i'm their
eating, when they could easily take
more. They take all the rest they ro-
puirc. sleeping rarely more than righ.
hours a night. and often much less.
"A great part of the secret in reach
ing The lTittest class is The mayir
"movemen'.' Let me try to ex~
plain. Ii we see W. horses in a
field. one moving about sluggishly ana
the other prancing over tho turf with
quick. energetic strides. we quickly
form the opinion that the frs, horse
is either old. tired. or lazs--a half
dead and alive sort Of creature. Quite
properly. too. we Judge the quick
stepping horse a better animal in ev-
cry way. The reaso that the lively
horse looks so much better to us. and
is better. is movement"
Human beings and their actions are
upon exactly the same way.
The greater amount Of reasonable ac-
ton we indulge in the more lively we
look. and the more lively we feel.
the longer we remain still.
the slower wc move, the more
dead" we look and become. Move
ment" makes all the difference in the
in physical condition, and is tho
keystone in the arch OF the condition
of The Fittest.

ATTACKS NORWAY EXHIBIT
Norwegian Publication Declares Plan

mOny With Centennial.

The Fran, a Norwegian newspaper

upon the action of the legislature in
making IN appropriation for II state
display at the Norwegian Centennial
exposition in Chrfstiania. Norway.
The paper contends that the legisla-
ture was advised through the Norwc-
gian ambassador at Washington that
such an exhibit was not wanted, as
the centennial is presumed to be de-
voted to the interests of Norway, and
is being used as a mcans of prevent
