Watkins SHOWS
MARKED CHANGES
New Federal and State Reg
'ulations are Largely
Responsible.
ARE T AGENTS
IN NEXT MOVEMENT
Propose Enforcement of the
. Measures on Canvassing
For Booze. Orders.

Illegal liquor sales have fallen off
eighty per cent with the last few
months. and during the next year, or
within a very few weeks, it will fall
=, even lower than that until 1t attains
probably the lowest point in the his
tory of the state.
That summary Of the present condi-
ton and forecast of the future is
made by f. L. Watkins, superintend-
ent OF tho North Dakota Enforcement
league, who is in Grand Forks.
Federal Regulations Help.
Federal regulations have, in the
main, been responsible for new con-
ditlons surrounding the shipment of
liquor; into North Dakota, although
new state regulations also have had a
big effect in bringing about the
change.
AS We understand it. the man who
has ever been convicted in the state
OF blindpigging. will have a hard time
to secure any liquor. The railroads
are engaged in preparing an order
covering the situation, this order
growing out of the Webb law. When
the railroads refused to handle liquor
to such men, the blindpigging bust
ness will be practically a thing of the
past.
Removal Power Effective.
=. The, new state law which gives the
governor the power to remove police
officials failing to enforce the law has
had n good effect. In many counties
OF III state we see a changed atti-
tude as concerns law enforcement, and
this condition, we believe, will be-
come even more satisfactory as the
full power of the governor is more
thoroughly appreciated. --s
AFTER July l the gambling evil al
80 will be minimized by the new gam
bling law This law, effective July 1,
gives the courts the power to close
buildings in which gambling may be
conducted, being patterned after the
blindpig injunction. law. 1t will cover
siot %nfsekisss, dise boxes, card play.
ing, etc. It will be the death knell
Of gambling.
Liquor Delivery Up.
"on my present visit to Grand
Forks I am, consulting with officials
with reference to the delivery of Ii
quor into Grand Forks from East
Grand Forks. The practices of the
past have been contrary to law, and
/ understand that brewing agencies
have alteady announced that they will
discontinue the delivery.
I'VE will make this situation cover
all handling of liquor, including the
messengers.
After Agents Next.
"Ths next plan we have under on
sideration is that of enforcing the law
relating to the work of agents OF
brewitg and liquor houses in the state.
This law has never been enforced
heretofore because we had been IN
able II get to it, but we expect to get
to it very shortly. The law is very
explicit. making it unlawful to solicit
LIQUOR orders in the state.
Only Twenty Permits Left.
"At the present time there are only
twenty drug permits left In the state
and tome of these will. have to go.
Then has hardly been q single per-
NIT II which there could not be pros
ecutBns."

TEDDY, PET FIRE DOG,
ANSWERS LAST CALL
Mascot of No. II Engine Company
Shot After Car Cuts OFF
His Legs.

Teddy responded to his last call Sat
urday night, and today all the men of

was the mascot of the company, and al
though he was only a small dog he had

member of the fire-fighting fraternity.
But he died in action, as real fire dog
should die, and so the firemen are proud

For the last year Teddy, the property
Of c L. Bryan. one of the firemen, has

best trick was jumping on the apparatus
when the first alarm rang and the horses
leaped to their places.
No fireman ever went to a fire with
more enthusiasm than did Teddy, who
seemed to love the smell of smoke and
the flash of flames. Never getting in the
way of hremep, he was always in the
thick of good fire fight. lending encour-

Where Music Comes From.

From the New York Mail.
"A musical authority says that amaz-
Ing signs of musical progress are now
apparent in America No doubt-but
sometimes II appears that the musical
impulse Is working the wrong way in
this country-that is to say. from the top
down instead of from the bottom up.
Great composers and musicians have al
ways sprung from people who had a folk
music. In Germany. in Italy. in France.
in Hungary. it has been so. Long ago.
when the common people of England were
instinctively musical, England produced
the greatest songs and the greatest COM
posers. When England beg;,s to get it,

WOULD TAX BACHELORS.
Mr.. Borland Suggests Law for De.
pendent Widows Support.

Representative Borland of Missouri has
suggested that a law to tax bachelors in
the District OF Columbia might provide
a fund for the support of dependent
widows. Mr. Borland believes that many
bachelors would rather be taxed than be
married. giving Missouri experiences to
back him up in his statement. Mr.. Bor-
land says that bachelors have been tax
ed In Missouri for four years.
II Mr.. Borland's plan becomes effect
i've 1T will be nearly as expensive to be
unmarried as to trot in double harness
A bachelor would remain untaxed until
the age of twenty-five. when he would
have to pay $10O a year for the privilege
of carrying his own latchkey. This rate
would remain effective until he reached
the age of thirty. If at that time he
had still been able to -eyade soft glances
and the wiles of matchmakers. the as
SCISSOR would chalk up 500 year
against him. For five years thereafter
the happy bachelor would have to pay
that sum annually, and after thirty
five years he would have to pay $500 a
year as long as he escaped.
Mr.. Borland explains that this high
rate is in conformity with the democratic
plan to tax luxuries.
