REFERENDUM LAW VALID
Is the Opinion Of Attorney Gener-

Bismarck. n. D.. April 10. In
a letter addressed to Governor
Hanna. Attorney General Linde,
holds that the amendment to the
constitution of the state Of North
Dakota. providing for the initia-
tive and referendum by the peo-
pie is valid in every respect. The
attorney general holds that the
failure to enter the concurrent
resolution at length or in full in
the house and the senate is not a
fatal error.
Mr.. Linde also contends that
the initiative and referendum are
so closely associated that they
might be considered as one gen.
eral proposition and would not
have to be voted on separately to
make the amendment valid.
He also finds that there is not
such discrepancy in the word
ing of the resolution passed in
1911 and the one passed in 1913
as to make that fatal error.

the Northern Pacific Railway
Company in the states in which
this company operates. The gen.
eral plans for this campaign were
announced today by Professor D.
E. Willard, Development Agent of
the company. who will have charge
of the work.
The demand for better live
stock, both dairy animals and
meat animals, is very great. 1t
has been decided to put on a
campaign looking toward i'm
provement in the quality of the
livestock kept on the farms and
in the methods of caring for and
handling these animals.
The plan to be pursued this
summer differs materially from
any campaign that has before
been FOLLOWED in the Northwest.
4 business car will be attached to
the regular trains operating over
the main line and branches, and
stops of an entire day will be made
at important farming centers.
Meetings will be held in towns aud
at school houses and other paints
in country districts. The speak
ers who will accompany this spec
ial car will be men of national
reputation, specialists in dairying
and livestock husbandry.
On agricultural trains that
have been operated by this COM
pany heretofore, livestock and
other demonstration material
have been carried on the train.
Livestock actually in use on the
farms will be made use of for
demonstration purposes in lieu of
carrying live stock from the Ex-
pertinent Station farms on the
trains as heretofore. The good
qualities and defects where these
exist in the farmers own livestock
will thereby be able to be pointed
out, and suggestions made as to
lines of improvement.
An effort will be made to carry
the gospel of better livestock to
the farmers in their own COM
munities. While operating this
special car, on which will be fur
hished living accommodations for
the staff of speakers, efforts will
I.be made TO study conditions on
the farms in their various COM
munities, and the speakers will
direct their efforts toward solving
the problems as they exist in the
different localities visited. Stops
will be made in many cases al
small stations where there are in
adequate or no hotel accommoda-
ltions, by this means reaching
many communities that have
heretofore been reached by Farm
ers' Institutes, or other agencies
for advancing the cause of better
agriculture.
The campaign will extend over
Ia period of nearly three months,

Mr.. Thomas wrote the presi-

saying in recent statement after
"a call at the White House that the
prosperity Of the railroads de-
pended largely on the attitude of
Washington officials.

are engrossed with affairs of state
of vital Importance to the welfare
of the country, and I am sure that
the manner in which you have
safeguarded the interests of the
country inspires the confidence
and admiration of every American
citizen.
Since it appears, however, that
wholly erroneous Interpretation
is being placed on that portion of
my statement which has been
made the subject Of editorial COM
ment. l now feel it my duty to call
the matter to your attention.
1T seems to me that careful
reading Of the entire statement
cannot leave an impression of
criticism of your administration.

business should face the future
with confidence; that the adjourn
ment of congress enabled you to
keep your promise that business
was to have a rest; that the man
ner in which the country had
solved the financial problems
forced upon us by the war, due in
large measure, of course, to the
new federal reserve act, demon
strated that the country was fun
damentally sound. These senti-
ments certainly cannot be regard
ed as reflection either upon you
OF your administration.

and the general schedule will in
clude portions of the territory
served by this company in Wis
consin, Minnesota, North Dakota,
Montana, Idaho ard Washington.
Farmers who are interested in
securing a better grade of stock
for their farms will be given as
sistance in locating breeding
stock which they can purchase.
Questions of the care and feed
ing of livestock will be given spec
ial attention. Meetings with the
business men in the towns will be
held as opportunity offers, and a
wider interest in promoting and
encouraging the keeping of good
livestock on the farms will be
sought to be awakened.
The campaign will open on May
3rd with a weeks schedule ON the
Duluth Short line and branches.
A week will also be spent on the
company's lines in Northern
Wisconsin. Points in Minnesota
which have not been recently
reached by agricultural special
trains will be reached in this
campaign. Two weeks will be
spent on lines in North Dakota.
Continuing, westward, the cam
paign will be continued for three
weeks on the company's lines in
Montana, and two weeks in Idaho.

that the general agricultural

Dredae as a Life Saver.

When Arson Rabuck, fourteen yearE
old, fell into the Susquehanna river
at Klines Grove, Pa, the other day
he did not reappear and men and
boys grappled and dived for the body.
Three hundred feet down stream a
coal dredge was working. and in few
minutes the digging machine threw
the little fellow up on the screen. APP
parently dead.
His frantic mother, who lives close
to the stream, urged that they try to
save the boy, and half dozen men
took turns under her directions, at
using first aid to the injured meth
DDS" After half hours work the
boy showed signs Of life and by eve
ming was able to eat his supper.
Doctors said that II was one OF the
rarest cases Of resuscitation that they
ever heard Of.

and mud-stained, and pitifully made
quate to protect her from the GOLD.
Her golden head was uncovered, and
disheveled, and from below its tum-
bled glory, her eye shone bright and
feverish from the dark-ringed sockets.
But she seemed unconscious Of her
plight. and Of the stares Of wonder
ment that she invoked.
1t was Carmen Daussa, tremulous
with Joy at finding the only house
In the great cruel city where she pos
sessed friends, where she might ask
for help and shelter. At recognition
OF her. q breath of admiration went
up from the audience, which swiftly
changed to an expression Of amaze
ment as vanderpool emerged from
the extreme other end Of the room.
Then, as though drawn by an ire
sistible power. they advanced, seeing
no one but each other. caring for no
one else. totally unconscious Of the
existence of the crowd, speaking no
word, uttering no cry, but coming
nearer and nearer, swifter and swifter,
as though impelled by fate they had
no thought to resist. And then, in
the center of the cleaning floor they
met, and, wordless still, he took her
In his arms. And when the music
stopped abruptly, she called his name,
and he bent and kissed her on the
mouth.
Once the spell which had held them
snapped with the cessation OF the
waltz, the people crowded about the
two. all talking, complimenting, ex-
planning, laughing, pushing: and
while this was at it's height the studio
door opened to admit the long-sought-
for, slender figure, and Pedro was
seen to inquire something Of Bell Mill
gan. At her response. Pedro appar-
emily thanked her, and disappearing
among the crowd, quickly returned
with the bear at heel. and vanished.
With stified cry Leigh sprang up,
and hastily gaining the lower floor,
crossed rapidly to Bell, who was deep
ly absorbed In explaining something
to Pell, and who had to be shaken by
the shoulder before she would answer
Leigh's question.
where did Pedro go?"
'I-good gracious, such perform
ance! Did you ever" gasped Bell
where did Pedro go? He went home
to pack"
Home to pack!" shouted Leigh.
Good Lord!'
And without even waiting to find his
hat, he rushed out into the alley and
started madly off In the direction Of
Muldoon place.

WAYS OF AVOIDING CANCER
Warning Which Is Worth Careful
Attention.

The new York board of health has

of the increasing danger from cancer.
From this 1t appears that at the pres.

the age of forty die of cancer. Can.
Ger claims $4,000 victims every year
in the United States.
The board of health gives some ex.
cellent suggestions as to the best way
to avoid cancer. The most important
of these are not to permit any irrita-
ton of the tongue by contact with
broken or decayed teeth. and not to
neglect any swelling of the skin. lips,
tongue, etc.
A wart on a child Is rarely anything

Then he did see. Saw all that the
life Of the road had meant to her, all
that she would give up for
him. He got to his feet
rather unsteadily, and at the look on
his face she, too, sprang up, half-fright
ened, to escape him. But retreat was
useless. and then, smothered in his
mighty arms, Pedro received her first
kiss
1t was an hour later that they crept
down the dark stairway and swung the
door open to the faint glow of coming
day. when will you come back.
Pedro-Oh! When will you come
back?" he whispered passionately.

the violets are in bloom; when 1t Is

Then she shifted the little knapsack
into place across her shoulder and
alone stepped of into the grayness,
the little bear shutting along at her
heels.
The morning was black and chill
but Leigh stood quite motionless lonl
after she had passed from sight; stoo<
motionless until the housetops famed
with the coming sun, until the dawn
was painted like unto the glory Of
love; and then he smiled, and, throw.
ing his head, shifted the keen air as
though he could already scent the un.
born violets Of that distant spring.
