TO CARRY
OUT PROGRAMME
REPUBLICANS HAVE LITTLE
CHANCE TO HEAD OFF THE
MAJORITY, SAYS NORTON.

Grand Forks, N. D., June 19.--That
the democrats r determined to
carry through their administration
programme, regardless of the republi-
cans, is the statement of Congressman
P. ID. Norton, who is spending the day
in Grand Forks. Mr.. Norton came
here frorn Hettinger. n. d. where he
has spent the past two weeks at his
home. He is in this city to attend the
annual university commencement ex-
ercises.
"The democrats have a strong adj
rninistration programme outlined he
said today, land they are determined
to shove it through. regardless of
what the republicans want or attempt.
This is evidenced by the action on
the tariff bill. Look how it went
through the house, and witness how
determined President Wilson and his
floor leaders are regarding the meas
ure in the senate. 1t will go through,
I think, just as the democrats want it,
fight in the senate.
1.-THE smashing Of executive preced-
ents, which has been one of the inter-
esting things in Washington since
March 4, has caused varied comment.
Some Of the solons view it with favor,
others are inclined to take the
opposite view. But President Wilson
cares very little for the comment on
his actions, and doubtless he will con-
tinue to smash precedent"

TROUBLE WITH
EARTH SLIDE

Schafer, N. D.. June 19.-Railroad
graders working near the mouth of
Cherry creek, on the New Rockford
Lewistown extension are experiencing
considerable difficulty in completing
the cut near the Bergen ranch. 1t is
now estimated that the work cannot
be finished in less than twice the time
originally estimated, The difficulty is
oecasioned by the continual raising of
the earth in the bottom of the cut. This
is due to a peculiar formation of the
hill at that place The action of the
ice in the glacial period developed a
formation of such a character that the
pressure OF h hill immediately to the
north Is forcing the earth continually
upward in the bottom of the cut. This
is an experience which none of the
engineers on the work have ever be-
fore encountered, and Is therefore a
problem whose solution is causing un-
told difficulty.
Original estimates of the mount of
time and labor required have fallen far
short Of the reality. 1t was estimated
in the beginning that the removal of
$4,000 yards of earth would complete
the cut. That mou has already
been removed, and the grade has been
the removal Of an additional 10000
yards. This elevation of the grade is
proving to be stil insufficient, and an
additional elevation viii have to be
made. 1t is quite likely that twice the
amount of the original estimate will
have been removed by the time the
cut is finally completed.
The difficulty could be- overcome by
removing the surface of the hill and
thus removing the pressure. But such
a procedure would require the laying
of additional track and would quite
likely be much more expensive In the
long run than the present method.

Minot Reporter: Complaints have
been heard from several sources to
the effect that girls and women have
been subjected to annoyances while

who make remarks as they pass. and.

deavored to accost them.
That sort of thing is a positive dis

ARE
PEACEFUL AGAIN
CONFERENCE OF CHURCH IN TIE
UNITED STATES AND CANADA
OPENED AT MOUNTAIN.

st, Thomas, N. D., June 19.--The
annual conference or the Icelandic
Lutheran cnurcn or America was apen-
ed in Mountain, Pembina county, n
Will continue a week. The conference
is representative Of the Icelandic
Lutherans Of the United States and
canada, and about 400 to 500 delegates
and visitors will attend.
The convention of Icelandic Luther
ans will not be stirred UP by differ
ences which arose several years ago
between members of the faith. Some
time ago there was formed in the
church a body Of members known as
liberals, and a bitter fight between
the liberals and the conservatives re-
suited, and even now a suit is pending
IN the supreme court of North Dakota
involving the status of the two fac
tons.
All Trace of Fight Gone.
In the general conference all trace
OF the fight, it is understood, has dis
appeared, the liberals have dropped
out. More recently the liberals have
been known as the ceceders.
The suit in the supreme court of
North Dakota involves the question of
whether or not these liberals or ce-
;ceders r still members OF the Ice
ilandic Lutheran church. The posses
sion of church property in Mountain
is directly in controversy, for in the
event that the liberals are no longer
members Of the denomination, : they
nave no claim to the property.
Have They Departed?
Judge G. F. Templeton of the dis
trict court decided that the liberals
We're not Icelandic Lutherans, and de-
MED their right to hold the property.
The property was created by the joint
efforts Of the liberals and conserve
tives before the break came. The
liberals in the congregation outnum-
bered the conservatives, and they took
the management of the property.
he courts a feature Of the church
provided that in the event of
a division in the church. that those
who departed from the faith ave up
their right to any property. Judge
holding that the liberals
had departed from the faith, gave pos
session to the conservatives, but the
liberals are still holding the property
lnder bonds.
The musical features will predom-
the conference during the conn
week.
