definite program forS placing OH the

Fierce Fighting Reported Along

Front

IMPORTANT POSITIONS

London, Sept. z9.--The Allies great
offensive in Artois and the Cham
pagne is still being persevered and
according to French accounts, which,
however, are cont-adicted by the Ger
mn official report, further progress
has been made in both areas.
In Artois the French claim to have
reached Hill lao, which lies directly
east of Vimy, and is the eliminating
point of the crest, named after that
town. The importance of the Hill
lies in the fact that it commands the
plains to the east, the network of
roads and the railway which runs
from Lens southwark.

So far as Champagne is concerned,
the French appear at present to be
making their chief efforts toward the
railway junction north of Masslgh,
which accounts for the desperate ef'
forts of the Germans. to stem the tlde
and for the Grown Princes counter
stroke in the Argonne, as this rail-
way connects the German army IN
the Argonne with it's base at Vouzlers.
Perhaps the heaviest fighting since
the offensive began is now going on,
for the British are attacking the Ger
man third line of defense south OF
La Basse canal, and the Germans
have brought zip reinforcements
against both she British and the
French and are making every effort
to retrive the lost ground. 1s
The Greatest Battle.
Belgian dispatches from Holland
say it has been denuded c. troops,
while German detachinents are even
being removed from the eastern front
to meet what is now known to be the
greatest effort made in the west
since the armies took up their pres
ent positions from Belgium to Swift
Zerland.
It is reported that the German EN-
peror has arrived at the western
front, and that he has already dis
missed some of his generals for al
lowing their lines to be pushed back
to almost the breaking point.
Still Hitting Russians.
DESPITE the transfer of some troops
to the west, the Germans continue to
strike hard at the Russians, practl'
cally all along their front. But it is
expected that the weather will soon
put an end to the operations there, as
with the continued rains the rivers
cannot be forded and the Russians,
wherever possible, are getting be-
hind them.

NO FUNDS TO PRINT
STATE blue BOOK
Attorney General Linde Gives
Secretary of State Opinion
on Question

From the opinion handed down yes.
terday by Attorney General Henry j.
Linde, there will be no Blue Book
printed in the state this year. Tile
opinion was handed to the Secretary
Of State by the Attorney General. Mr..
Hall was anxious to Sc: the correct
status of the Blue Book affair.
The opinion on tle matter is as fC:-
lows:
Opinion
With regard to the matter of the ex-
pense Of printing the North Dakota
Blue Book for the year 1915.
i have made thorough examination
of our statutes with respect to this
matter. l find that section 1856 Of the
|. Constitution provides that no moneys
can be expended except upon an ap-
preparation made by law.
Chapter 224 of tae 1915 Session
Laws requires that the contract for
the printing and binding Of the North
Dakota Blue Book shall he let upon
competitive bidding to the lowest bid
der.
An examination of Chapter 224.
however, discloses that no approprla-
ton is made or attempted to be mace
by SUCH act for the payment Of the
costs Of such publication.
| am unable to find in our statute
any specific appropriation now avail
able for the printing and binding OF
this publication.
Repeats Section
Chapter 1856 of the 1907 Session
Laws provides an appropriation of one
hundred thousand dollars out of which
the cost of printing and binding the
Blue Book has heretofore been paiG.
Section 653g of the Compiled Laws
of 1913 repeals this 1907 enactment
and provides an appropriation of one
hundred thousand dollars for the peri
cd beginning on the 1st day of JanU-
airy, A. D. 1913 and ending on the
first day Of July, A. D. 1915.
Assuming the article of Chapter
6 of the 1913 Compiled Laws, OF wllic.,
section G53g is a part, is constitutional.
it is clear that the appropriation pro-
vided by Chapter 1856 OF the Session
Laws Of 1907 has been replaced anc
is no longer available
The question then arises whether
or not the Legislature in 1915 made an
appropriation for the printing anc
binding of the Bue Eook or whether
such appropriation is contained in
Chapter 43 of the Session Laws OF
1915, the same being the so-calles

Said Chapter 43 provides appropria-
tions for printing in specific amounts
for each of the various State depart
ments of the government including a
specific appropriation for printing for
the next Legislative Assembly.

Much enthusiasm is being created
by the announcement of the special
stock car automobile racing meet. A
dozen owners have already entered
their machines and enough more have
been promised to make certain ex-
citement in plenty The light car
race and the free-for-all sweepstakes
promise to be the two most sensation
al events.
