COMMISSION
PLAN CARRIED
NEW FORM OF GOVERNMENT
CARRIED IN DEVILS LAKE
SATISFIED WITH RESULTS

BY the vote of 219 to 149, Devils
Lake last Wednesday declared for the
commission form of government, re-
nouncing the cumbersome ward sys-
tenn.
Devils Lake voted to install clean
cut business system in municipal at
fairs, based on efficiency, economy and
municipal progress.
The next official move is to certify
the result of the election to the Sec
retary of state, whereupon the COVER
nor will issue letters patent, author
izing the city to govern itself under
the commission form.
Within twenty days after the issu-
ance Of letters patent, the law dc.
clares that an election must be held 10
elect president and four commission
ers.
Nothing but expressions OF salts
faction can be heard concerning the
result Of the election in Devils Lake

VERDICT GIVING $500 IN
PERSONAL INJURY SUIT

Averdict of $6,5O0 was awarded NJ.
B. Dowd in district court here in an
action brought by Dowd against s. A.
McGinnity, for personal injuries al
legged to have been caused by Nc
Ginnity. The action was the out
growth Of quarrel between the two
men some two years ago, when Nc
Ginnity is said to have knocked Dowd
down and inflicted injuries, which in
cluded a fractured skull and several
broken bones. Dowd has never fully
recovered from the effects of the
beating, his speech being somewhat
impaired and other effects remaining
which will probably continue perman-
entlv. For several months his mind
was complete blank
Mr.. Dowd brought an action for
damages which was tried year ago,
but at that time the verdict returned
by the jury in his favor was set aside
by the court as being insufficient and
the case was retired last week.

IN BANKRUPTCY
LOCAL BUSINESS MAN DECLAR.
ED A BANkRUPT-BOS
STORE CLOSED FRIDAY

W.. A. Garrison, who for the past
few years has conducted the Boston
Store in this city, has gone into
bankruptcy. The store was closed
last Friday, and the first meeting of
the creditors will be held in Minot on
the 26th day of this month.
The proprietor of the store credits
the reverse in business to the bad
condition existing for the past couple
of years, during which time be be-
came involved in an effort to tide over
the bad seasons. 1t is understood
that the smaller creditors of the store
were largely responsible for the pro-
ceeding.
The Boston has carried large
stock of ladies furnishings and dry
goods, and the failure is to be re-
GREETED as it was one of the leading
stores. Mr. Garrison has proved him
self to be an estimable fellow and
good citizen, and it is hoped that he
may be able to get his affairs straight
ened out in such manner that he will
be able to continue in BUSINESS in
Williston.

ner, the first of which was given last

EXTENSION
LECTURE
UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Lee
TURE UNDER AUSPICES OF
H. s. NEXT THURSDAY

| In the University extension lecture
which is to be given in Williston un-
dr. the auspices of the High School
there will be suggestion both Of
things that are new and things that
are old. We are told that among the
ancients music was one of the first
subjects taught ,and yet we find our
selves nowadays spending consider
able time over discussion of the ad-
visibility of including music in our
public school curriculum. Mr.. Viii
liam Wellington Norton, Of the State
University, will take for his theme
"The Ballad, The Song and the Ora
torio,' and in that connection will de-
velop number of ideas relating to
music and the teaching Of music that
are sure to prove both instructive
and suggestive. His efforts will ba
seconded by an accompanist whom he
will bring with him, and point will
be led to his remarks by number
c. ncal selections which he will rem
der. The whole purpose of the pro-
gram is meant to be both educational
and entertaining
Mr. Norton is comparatively new to
North Dakota audiences, as he is now
only in his third year as Director Of
music at the University of North Da-
kota, but he is no stranger to those
who have followed the progress Of
this line of effort at the University
of Minnesota, or who are in touch
with the work Of the lyceum circuits
of the Middle West. Born of q
musical family and reared in musi-
cal environment, Mr. Norton may be
said to have been musician practi-
cally since he was old enough to eth
er sing or to hold violin. A student
Of violin music at seven, a soprano
in a boys choir at twelve and choir
leader of symphony orchestras- his
at twelve and choir director and q
musical experience has been sufficient
ly rich and varied to put him in posi-
ton to talk with the word Of author
ity Since his connection with the
University of North Dakota musical
work, that phase of the institutions
work has taken on new lease Of
life.
The idea back of the University ex--
tension movement is to furnish both,
information and intellectual stimulus
to communities throughout the State
at prices which represent merely the.
expense in bringing the lecturers from
the University. The local arrange
ments in our city are under the direc-
tion Of the High School. Remember
The place and the date, Library Hall,

where there has been lack of busi-
ness methods used in municipal gov
ernment. There has been enormous
waste and great extravaganza in all
departments, there have been loose
methods used in city accounting and
financing; there has been vast
amount Of money expended by cities
in building city halls, schools, libra
ries, fire department buildings, water
works systems, bridges, sewerage,
paving, roads, park systems, etc.
These large outlays of money for city
building and improvements usually
have been raised by issues of bonds
on long time loans at low rates Of
interest.
Many cities, in fact it is the rule
and not the exception in this country,
have mortgaged the future to such an
extent that the next and succeeding
generations will have to pay for the
building operations, improvements,
waste, losses and extravaganza of
this generation. It is the heavily
bonded indebtedness of a city, usual
ly growing larger instead Of smaller,
together with the needs for current
expenses that makes high tax rate
to burden tie people. The city with
q low bonded Indebtedness has a
lower tax rate usually, and the tax
rate is one of the things that makes
or breaks city. A low tax rate re-
ducesc the burdens of the tax payers,
and is a great asset to any city as
an inducement to business men and
manufacturers to locate in that city
and engage in business or manufac
turing enterprises.
Low Taxes Asset to City
Remember this, that there is as
much competition among cities to-day
to get prospective manufacturers and
business men to come in and locate,
as there is among individuals and

SOMETHING ABOUT THE NEW FORM OF MUNICH
PAL GOVERNMENT NOW BEING ADOPTED
BY SOME CITIES NEAR US.
A BUSINESS MANS GOVT.
FIRST OF A SERIES OF ARTICLES TO BE PUB.
LISHED in THIS PAPER ON SUBJECT.

The form of governing cities is re-
ceiving considerable attention at the
hands of the American people at the
present time, and is resulting in the
betterment of conditions and in re-
adjustment of forms and methods of
government
Ex-senator Aldrich of Rhode Island,
for many years the Republican boss
of the United States senate, said a
year or two ago, that our government
could be run for $500, 900 per year
less than it cost to operate it. That
statement undoubtedly was true. The
spoils system, graft, log rolling, and
pork barrel legislation that con-
gress is responsible for, and the un-
necessary extravaganza practiced in
all departments of our government,
bring about an enormous waste and
expenditure Of money far beyond the
actual needs Of the government.
A few months ago Louis Brandeis,
the distinguished Boston lawyer,
while conducting the case of the ship
pers before the Interstate Commerce
Commission made the startling state
ment that the railroads of this coun-
try could save $1,OO0,OOO a day in
operating expenses byup-to-date meth
DDS of operating, and greater eficien-
cy of service. The magnates of the
railway world got purple in the face
from excessive laughter over what
they deemed an absurd and ridicu-
lous proposition. But the intrepid
Brandeis called witnesses and proved
his contention, to the disgust Of the
railway magnates, who are more ac-
customed to railway mergers and
stock jobbing, and more concerned in
looking after the riparian rights Of
their watered stocks than they are
in efficiency of service and science
of railway operation.
Mortgaging the Future
