GOVERNOR HANNA CALLS HALT
ON THE EXPENSE WHICH Is
BEING INCURRED,

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 2s-Governor
Hanna sent the following message to
the legislative assembly: wish to call
your attention to resolution passed
by the commissioners Of public print.
ing at meeting held Jan: 90:
"Moved by Mr.. Olson that the at.
tention Of the governor be called to
the fact that we have been asked to
advance the rs per cent allowed by
law on estimated work completed and
in course Of completion for the
thirteenth legislative assembly and in
view Of the fact that the printer
estimated that he has completed and
in process of completion to exceed
10000 worth Of legislative printing,
this commission believes that it will
be. wise if the governor will call the
attention Of the house and senate to
this fact, with the end IN view that q
committee may be appointed to
investigate and decide what if any cut
would be made in the printing now
being ordered, the idea being to re
duce the expense Of unnecessary
printing and incident cost Of postage
for its distribution.
"I would suggest to the senate ani
house that joint committee be
named to confer with the governor
and the commissioners of printing t
see if some way cannot be devised BY
/ which this very large expenditure fo
Legislative printing can be cut down
The session Of Legislature is only on
third through and if It has cost II
more than $4,000 for the first twent!
days of the session it will readily b.
seen that it will cost as 100000 to $35
900 for legislative printing by tn
time the session is over, which woul
be an average of more than $500 pc
day. Trusting this matter may b
given proper attention I am sincerel
signed, L. B. Hanna, Governor

Motorcyclists Of northern North Da-

ried out, will make Grand Forks their
mecca during the week of the North
Dakota state fair.
Here is the plan that has been
launched at Devils Lake, a party of
eight or ten motor cyclists will leave
there about two weeks before the fair
and their trip will include = swing to
the northwest to Fish Lake district,
where they will enjoy short outing.
From there they will make their way
to Grand Forks, reaching here on the
FIRST OF second day Of the fair.
It is proposed that riders will Join
the party from place to place, and
that by the time the party gets 20
Grand Forks it win have swelled TO
numbers to from five to ten times the
original number.
A regular schedule viii be arrang.
ed, and doubtless the riders will be
heartily greeted in the various cities
at which they make stops.

All told, the visiting cyclists, will
cover about 400 miles making it one
Of the biggest all-state motorcycle
tours ever attempted. Roads at that
season Of the year are usually in good
shape.
Should from so to 100 visiting motor
cycle owners be included in the party,
that fact would mean great deal Of
interest in the schedule Of motor cycle
races, which probably will be big

outside cyclists in attendance and the

cidedly classy events should be staged.
