Bonniwell Cuts Loose

While Palmer was talking Judge
Bonniwell cut loose with some re-
marks about the State committee ar
.rogating to itself power to boss county
committees. This is the way he hand
ed it out:
The State executive committee has
no authority whatever over contests
for members of a county committee.
They have undertaken to set UP such
authority in their new State rules, but
even these do not actually make such
a provision, and if they did they would
be in direct conflict with the law.
The uniform Statewide primary
act was drawn by the present Repub-
lican State organization at a time
when its State committee was in the
hands of a hostile chairman, Mr.. Was
son representing the Finn element.
The trainers of the act took good care
to see that 1t did not give the State
body any power over the organization
of subordinate bodies such as county
committees.
AT any rate, the spirit of the pri-
mary law is that the people at the
polls shall decide such questions di-
rect, and it is requgnant to the whole
intent of that act for a State body to
undertake to interfere in a purely To-
cal matter.
Suppose the State executive COM
mittee should refuse to recognize John
NJ. Hill, for instance, as a member of
the Philadelphia county committee,
n the latter committee pays no at
tention to the action of the State body
and seats Mr.. Hill regardless of the
wishes of the State leaders. What hap
pens? Nothing, unless the State COM
mittee should undertake to refuse
recognition to the county committee
and attempt to set up a new organi-
zation in Philadelphia. And what
Why, they would find under
the dtcision in the Coray case in 1901.
that the State body has no such
right.
1T doesn't matter what the rules
say. Rules cannot annul the law.
There is absolutely nothing to this
whole affair"

WIDOW OF NORTH
DAKOTA MILLIONAIRE
Dies at Her Pa|atiaI Home at
Pasadena, California.

Grand Forks, March 21.-It has
been said that North Dakota had no
millionaires, but there is an excep-
tion to this, as seen in the estate of
the late w. c. Leistikow, the we'll
known Grafton miller and Winnipeg
grain broker. Mr.. Leistikow died
about four months ago, and word has
just been received that his widow
died March IS, at Pasadena, Cal,
from nervous breakdown following
the death of her husband. The fu-
neral services were held in Pasa-
dena.
The estate of Mrs. Leistikow is
very large. At the time of the death
Of her husband, she received the bulk
of his estate of approximately three
millions. Fred Leistikow, the only
son, was given approximately mil
lion by his father just short time
before death.
In addition to the estate received
from her husband, Mrs. Leistikow
was wealthy in her own name, hav-
ing inherited large holdings from her
father, Anton Bettingen, for many
years a resident of Grafton, and who
also resided in the Twin Cities.
The elder Bettingen and w. c.
Leistikow were the establishers of
the Grafton mills, in which the foun-
dations for the two fortunes were
laid.
Had just Entered Palatial Home.
At the time of Mr.. Leistikow's
death, half million dollar residence
was nearing completion at Pasadena.
Christmas Mrs. Leistikow entered
that home, being carried into it on a
stretcher.
Since then her condition has var
led considerably, and several weeks
ago she appeared much better. Dur
ing the last two weeks, however, it
has been generally understood that
she could not live.
Mr.. and Mrs. Leistikow were mar
ried in St. Paul in 1881, removing
shortly afterwards to Grafton, where
they resided till 1907, when they
went to Winnipeg.
Fred Leistikow, his wife and baby
are in tue west, having been there
during his mothers illness.
Mr.. Leistikow was for number
of years active in North Dakota poll
tics, and had a very wide acqualnt-
ance around the state. He was in
strumental in the election Of one or
more candidates for the United
States senate, but of recent years had
abandoned his political activity and
confined himself solely to business,
in which he was remarkably success
full.

new BuRLEIGH
COUNTY HIGHWAY
Plans for New County Road to Kid
der County Line.

Bismarck, March 23.-The county
commissioners of Burleigh county,
cooperating with the city council of
Bismarck, have decided to construct
a new county road to run east from
Bismarck to the Kidder county line.
Engineer Atkinson has been survey
ing for TINS new road, and has gone
over several different lines to obtain
information as to the relative cost,
the grades and other engineering
problems, to furnish the commission
ers with information as to the most
economical route and the one which
will best servesthe largest number of
tax payers. The engineer expects to
be able to avoid some of the larger
hills by running the road around
them and in this way not only de-
crease the first cost, but save heavy
cuts, which are always Objectionable
on account of snow in the winter
season, and also avoiding heavy
grades.
The cost of this proposed road can
not exceed $4,000, this being the
sum appropriated for this purpose by
the commissioners. Several of the
township authorities along the line
have signified their willingness to
cooperate by appropriating money
for aid in construction wherever it
is necessary to open new road along
the line Of the county road, and their
help will be very welcome for it can
readily be seen that $4,000 is very
small sum with which to construct
IS miles of good road across Bur-
leigh county.
There will be eleven townships in
the county through which this road
will run, outside of the city of Bis
marck. The amounts to be paid in
taxes by the townships vary from
$50 to $158. The city of Bismarck's
share of the cost of the road is ST.
115. The amount of tax which the
owner of the average quarter section
along the line will pay towards the
of the road will be 80
cents. The city of Bismarck is plan
ming an extensive good road program
to make it convenient and accessible
for farmers to reach the city for bus
iness and other purposes, from all
parts of the county.
