GOVERNOR HANNA
RAISING MONEY
Has Charge of Securing Bal
ance Needed to Pay for
the Silver Service

Governor j.. 3. Hanna is endcavor-
ing to raise the balance OF the money
needed to pay for the silver service
for the %battleship North Dakota.
According to word received from
the capitol. there still is 81 deficit OF
$4,000 in the fund and every effort is
being made to raise the money as
quickly as possible.
The work of securing money to pur-
chase the silver service has been rath-
err difficult. and several plans have
been adopted. Originally each county
was assessed a certain amount. and,
in a number Of cases, the counties
paid more than their share, but in
others they fell below the mark.
The work has been delayed for sew
eral years, although several attempts
were made to secure the balance.
Governor Hanna has taken hold of
the proposition, and it is expected
that he will have the balance Of the
money raised in q short time.
1t was reported today that $500 had
been raised recently, which leaves a
balance Of $4,000 to raise.

Hostesses this year do not ask any
