CASHIER WATTS TO LEAVE

Fryburg Pioneer:-From Wednes-
days Bismarck Tribune we CLEAN the

sen, who has been bookkeeper and tel
Ter at the Hettinger State bank since
the organization Of that institution,
has accepted a position as cashier of
the First State bank at Fryburg."
Mr.. Christensen is the young man
who was here with A. L.. Martin,

It is possible that some members
of the legislature will not take kindly
to the Treadwell Twitchell resolution
calculated to reduce the number of
senators in North Dakota to 80 and
the representatives to 60. The pres
ent number of senators is 40 and rep
resentatives Ill. This is an unwieldy
number, especially in the house. A
less number of Legislators would be
more economical for the state.

tinue to get the publicity that counts

A bill has been introduced to pro-
hibit newspaper voting contests
Nine-tenths of the newspaper men
themselves and an eve larger pei
cent of the reading public, will ap-
prove the measure. Many such con-
tests in the state have ended in a
scandal and when such is not the
case there is always more or less ill
feeling and the increase of the SUBJ
scription list is offset in a large
mea by the loss of the business
of the dissatisfied ones. The law
might well include all voting con-
tests.

now of the required size but the most

favorable action was taken on the ap-

the employment Of a stonographer for
two months 1t was also decided to
spend at least $1,000 on the Philadel-
pha turnpike.
State Highway Engineer James
Wilson was authorized to advertise
for bids for the work.
The members of the court found
that there was no money available for
the turnpike work and did not propose
to borrow money or go in debt for the
improvement
Accordingly a conference was held
previous to the meeting and it was
agreed to take $1,000 from the main
tenance found OF Wilmington hun
dred, $4,000 from the rural districts
and at least $4,000 from the Chris
tiana hundred road leading from Ash
land to Centrcville school and the
money spent on the Philadelphia road

they would wait for repairs. Blu, nc
