of the voters of at least one-half Of
the counties Of the state. Follow
ing the election, If the people Of the
state vote favorably on the proposed
acts, the legislature may either acr
cept or reject the amendment. If
the assembly rejects It, the amend
ment carries. Failure upon the part
of the legislature to accept the
change results in it being submitted
to the people again, and If, in the
second election, it is again passed,
it becomes part of the constitution.
To refer an act of the legislature
to the people requires a petition of
at least ten per cent of the electors
of majority of the counties, this
being the per centage feature in S.
B. 80, regulating statutory enact
ments. Initiative petitions must be
fled thirty days before the legisla-
ture convenes, and the legislature
must act upon the petition within
forty days after convening. The leg
islature has the power to enact the
bill and refer it to the people, while
failure to enact the legislation petit
toned for automatically submits it
to the people.
The power of referring acts COW
ers all propositions except acts re-
lating to public health and safety,
which are of imemdiate necessity,
and a two-third vote declaring the
bill in that class is necessary to
bring about its preservation from the
referendum.

new DIRECTORS FOR
FAIR ASSOCIATION
Will Decide Question of Holding u
County Fair in 1913.

There was meeting of the direct
ors and stockholders of the Stuts-
man County Fair association Mon
day afternoon. About twenty were
present. The treasurer's report
showed total receipts $3,255.36, to-
tai disbursements $2,932.94, leaving
a balance on hand Feb. "a, 1913, of
$322.42.
The new board of directors was
elected for the present year as fol-
lows. G. A. Klaus, H. w. Kelley,
Stephen Corwin, c. A. Rathman,
George Game, Samuel Richards, Ben
Orlady, Morris Beck and A. Bor-
ebert.
This board will hold meeting
within the next ten days and elect a
president, secretary and treasurer.
The sentiment appeared to favor the
holding Of fair this year, but this
matter will be decided later. The
association is in good shape flnan-
cially, and it was stated that only
one other association in the state or
ganized to hold county fairs was in
any better condition.
The association has about $4,000
worth of property represented by
substantial buildings, and only owes
$1,000. This obligation is not pres
sing, as the interest has been paid
to January 1st. 1913. There is an
outstanding balance of 5000 due the
association. signed by various par
ties, that has not been collected.
The sentiment of the present di-
rectors also opposed selling of the
buildings. Had it not been for the
tornado which destroyed much prop
erty for the. association, the flnan-
cial condition would have been at
least $500 to the good instead of
$322.42. There is insurance Of fire
and tornado on the buildings.

.sPRlNG SHOOTING
y - PROHIBITED
Deputy Game Wardens to Serve Five
Months.

Bismarck, March 1O.-There were
335 bills passed at this session,
about the same number as were put
through the hopper two years ago.
Over two hundred of the laws of
this session were passed on the six
tieth day of the session.
New Game Bill.
Governor Hanna has stated that
one of the first bills he will sign will
be the new game bill. This bill pro-
vides for the prohibition of spring
shooting of geese, protects deer un-
til 1918, provides for the removal of
beaver from places where they are
doing damage to other places where
they will thrive as we'll but will not
be menace to the streams in which
they live. The bill also provides
that there shall be a deputy game
warden in each judicial district, but
as they are to serve only five months
each year, the expense of keeping
up game wardens will not be as
much as under the old law.
A bill will become law which
permits farmers of the state to reg
lister with the secretary of state
farm names. This law will allow
the copyrighting of such names
which will become of value In the
sale of butter, pork, milk and other
farm products. BY the payment OF
a small registration fee, the name of
the farm can be reserved for all
time.
Mechanics Lien.
Although important changes in
the mechanics lien law of the state
were proposed in several bills that
were introduced during the early
stages of the session, the only
amendment made covers the ques-
ton of filing such lien at the con-
sent Of the purchaser.
1t is provided by the amendment
that the seller of materials must OBJ
tain from the purchaser his consent
to the filing of the lien. Also, the
seller must file notice Of his 1nten-
ton to file lien on or before the
first delivery of materials is made,
and in filing his lien he must also
attach the agreement made at the
time of the purchase between him
self and the buyer.
Proposed amendments to the lien
law created great deal Of interest
throughout all sections Of the state
and there was q big food Of petitions
asking that the present laws be re.
tanned.

meu,iug on the affair,
Chief of Police Edward Noder
brands it as an attempt to discredlt
him and the efficiency Of the men in
his charge and says the whole affair
s. ON thin as tissue paper with the
tissue taken out"
However, the recent "blOw-up' in
the police department has been brew
Ing for the last three months and
those who have been i'm the inner
circle" have been expecting just what
has happened.
On the surface ii appears as though
Harry Siege the crook-catcher has
been playing both parts Of two
handed game. Siege says that Walter
Duckett head Of a private detective
agency is the instigator of the pres
ent scheme merely to discredit him
and the police department which viii
ultimately result in throwing the
stigma Of the entire affair on chief
Yoder.
However, the friends OF Walter
Duckett claim that Hoder and SteSe
did all in their power and produced
cent grand jury TO have Duckett in
dicted on a charge of impersonatIng
the mayor of Tulsa and swindling an
old Mexican out of a sum Of money
one Of two things Is certain IN re-
gard to the present situation. Either
Harry f.. Siege Of the Bertillion de-
partment is guilty Of attempted brlbe
of government witness or there is a
''nigger In the wood pile
However rather thorough inves-
tigation has developed the following
facts:
When Chief Of Police Eoder took
the oath Of office a year and half
ago Walter Duckett, learned that the
city commissioner and Yoder intend
ed to install Bertillion system and
that Steee was likely candidate for
the place Duckett Immediately got

procure evidence damaging to Stegc

Ben Dew and Acy Burris, who wore

Before the date of the trial Dan
Danclger came to Tulsa i'm behalf of
his case. While here, Siege says,
Walter Duckett represented to him
that "he was in bad" and that II rc
sum of money would get him out all
right" Siege says that Danciger then
came to him and asked him about tn
proposition and told him of his reld-
tions with DuclSott. St"ge says he
asked him il ne was going To accept
the proposition ana he replied that
"no. ! have no money for shake

case and this it appears is where tho
"brihe" comes in. Mrs Emily Bar

Stcge who says he was after evidence

she called for him several times by

Tulsans at the hearing WAS the prin

were to the effect that too much

If the present case is pressed that
