CITY COMMISSIONERS TO
CONSIDER COMPROMISE.

Minot.-The board of city commits.
sioners held a special session at the
city hall to consider if a compromise
should be entered into between the
city and contractor Kennedy of Fargo,
who was recently awarded verdict
of approximately $4,000 against the
city.
Attorney R. H. Bosard, appearing in
the interests Of the city, and D. c..
Greenleaf, counsel for Mr.. Kennedy,
with the commissioners went over the
many different items involved in the
construction Of the filtration and water
main distribution plant over which the
suit was brought for alleged balance
due on contract.
No compromise was offered or
reached at the meeting, which lasted
for a period of two hours, but the com,
missioners considered the many differ
ent phases of the case which offered
the possibility of compromise. 1t is
possible that a compromise will be
reached at the next regular meeting of
the city commissioners.
The case will be threshed out be.
fore the supreme court if no agree
ment is reached with the commission.

DEMOCRATS TO SEEK LEADER
Discuss Prospective Candidates for
United States Standardization
Mcdowell and Doyle Mentioned.

Fargo-"We must pick out a new
candidate for the United States senate
in the place of United States Treas
urer Burke, said a leading North Da-
kota democrat. 1T seems Burke is
an applicant for federal judicial ap-
pointment in Iowa and will not be-
come senatorial candidate. We had
it all nicely arranged, feeling positive
he would make the race. Naturally, it
is a great disappointment.
with Burke eliminated, F. o. He'll
strom of Bismarck, Wesley Mcdowell
Of Marion and United States Marshal
Doyle Of Darlington are about the
only men in our party whom l regard
as having a show of election.
Doyle, who was opposed to D. H.
Macarthur, then state chairman, and
National Committeeman Breugger,
won the marshalship appointment. AS
a member of the legislature he was
the minority leader and prominent
figure. He is one of the brainiest men
In our organization.
Mcdowell won a statewide reputa-
ton as a member of the North Dakota
senate. He is banker and farmer
in La Moure county and is in close
touch with the farmers of the state
through his enthusiasm for better
farming methods. He is one of the
best orators in the state and would
be stemwinder on the stump.
'Hellstrom has made two races for
governor and prior to that was warden
of the penitentiary. These expert
ences have given him a wide acquain.

1t seems to me that with Burke out
of the senatorial campaign, we must
conscript one of these three men,"

WILL ENCOURAGE CONTESTS.
State to Extend Industrial Work in
North Dakota sehooIs-13,0o0
Participated In 1914.

Fargo.-Contests in corn, potatoes
and alfalfa growing. poultry raising.
vegetable canning, bread and butter
making and sewing are to be conduct
ed among school children of the state
again this year under the auspices
of the extension department of the
North Dakota Agriculral college.
These are in addition to tho big pork
production and the acre-yield corn
contests that are carried out on larg-
or scale.
North Dakota ranks high in indus
trial school work and this year this
will be more prominently featured
thar formerly. The instructions are
full and complete. On corn, the sell
ection of the plot, the preparation Of
the seed bed, the seed, the different
varieties, planting. cultivation, harvest
ting, selection of exhibits, care of ex-
hibits, observations, yields, seeds for
future use and rules for the contest,
with score cards and explanations, are
furnished each contestant. The other
contests are written up in the same
manner.
The extension department of the col.
lege furnishes the seed to the county
superintendent of schools of the state,
who deliver it to the individual contest
ants and have supervisory charge of
the work under the general direction
of the extension department. This is
also true of the alfalfa contests. The
county superintendent furnish the
seed for the potato contests.
Last year $4,000 school children par.
ticipated in the contests and 40 win
ners were sent to the Agricultural col
lege in December to attend the boys
| and girls institute for weeks course
in agriculture, home economics and en-.
tertainment.

TOO BUSY TO SIGN PETITION.
Voters Taking Little Interest In
observation-disclosures Against
IL Bills May Be Failure.

Grand Forks.-Doubt is beginning
to be entertained in some sections at
the ability of the referendum support
ers to obtain the required number Of
signatures to secure action on the set
of IA bills they have attacked.
The fact that North Dakota voters
are, on the whole, very busy with their
spring work, is responsible for such a
marked lack of interest in the move
ment that it may fall down.
Under the referendum provision Of
the state constitution, petitions to be-
come operative as against an act must
contain the names of 10 per cent of the
total legal voters in at least a major
ity of the counties of the state. This
means the petitions must be circulated
extensively in at least rs counties.
In their bid for general support, the
forces opposed particularly to the ad-
mfnistration measures, such as the
asylum appropriation, board of control
extended terms, etc., included the ter
minal elevator fractional mill tax re-
peal as an item, and by so doing ex.
pect to get the support of the equity
forces. This same principle has been
applied in other cases as we'll.
That the state asylum for the insane
is liable to serious embarrassment If
the referendum is made operative
against its appropriation, is the gen.
eral sentiment IF legislators. The en-
tire appropriation of $25O,0OO for i'm.
provements the coming two-year Pc
Rod would be held up, with the asy-
lum's need of added accommodations
growing each week.
