ever increasing activity of these boats

and trade which passes through the
canal, while they did not cause any
great uneasiness in naval circles
here. they have brought officials to a
realization of the great danger that
will exist If Germany Is able largely

PLAN TO TEST J.
NEW new DRY LAW '
East Grand Forks Brewery Dis,
tributers Expected to
Make Fight.

East Grand Forks, Mimi, May 81
A test Of Minnesota's option law as
it relates to the operation of brewery
distributing stations within dry coun
ties, probably will grow out Of the
election Monday, by which Polk coun.
ty was made dry.
1t is understood that the twelve 10.
cal brewery distributing stations will
continue to operate, which will bring
on the. test.
1t is understood that the twelve 10.
cal brewery distributing stations will
continue to operate, which will bring
on the test.
1t is also understood that the East
Grand Forks brewery in this city and
the Kewold brewery at Crookston,
will continue in operation, maintain
ing their business on the basis spe-
Gifted in the option act.
If the brewery distributing stations
maintain their Aposition, a rather in
teresting legal battle is anticipated.
The optionists of Polk county are so
strong in numbers as evidence by the
election in which they obtained ma
jority Of over 1,10O, that they prob
ably will be unwilling to permit the
operation of the brewery stations If
there is any method of saving the
depots.
Large Monthly Shipments.
On local brewery agent says ship
ments in single month from one
depot have aggregated as high as $780,
O0O these shipments beinb made into
the dry state of North Dakota. When
it is considered that there are twelve
such depots in } The. city, all of them
doing big business, the importance
Of the local branches is the more evi.
dent. Polk county drys are rapidly
laying plans for the holding of a jubi-
lee to celebrate their victory.

FiiueMexiicuns
Were Saued
From Death

Florence, Ariz., May 2S.-The board
Of pardons and paroles at the last
moment today granted respite to- all
five Mexicans who were condemned
to die on the gallows at the Florence
penitentlary today. The respite will
not exceed nine weeks and the rec
cmmendation is that the men he
hanged separately on dates to Ibe fix
ed by Governor Hunt. Advocates of
the aIbolisllment, Of capital punish
ment hailed the decision with de-
light. The least concerned were the
Mexican prisoners for whose lives
the struggle had been waged. They
smiled at the prospects. Of death, but
they did not change the smile when
told they need not mount the gal

EXAMINER
MUST CUT
Down FORCE
Attorney General Holds Depart
ment Must Get Along on
Appropriation.
SALARIES FOR MAY ARE
PROVIDED FOR; THAT'S ALL
No June Salary Money for Depu-
ties or Clerks, No Road
$685.. Expense.

In an opinion sent to the governor
yesterday, Henry j. Linde, attorney
general holds that the bank examiner
should retain only such help in his
department during the remainder or
the fiscal year, ending June 80, as the
credit balance in that departments
fund will pay No other appropria-
ton or other moneys are available to
this department until July I, says the
attorney general.
Johnson's Letter.
In a letter to the governor State
Bank Examiner Johnson recently
made the following statement:
That the balance in the appropria.
ton fund for this department after
the payment of the April road expense
of the deputy examiners is trifle
less than $4,000 of May |. That the
estimate amount of expense to the
close of the fiscal year, June 30 is
$3.50.
This would leave a deficit Of $3.50
as of June 30 if the present staff is
retained. u ..ij.l ~, ..,., X,
The greseht' balance, will care for
the May salaries but will not pay the
May road expense nor will it take
care of the June salaries or the June
road expense. g6i, ~ g.fs..e.. a
The department has been Informed
that all warrants overdrawing will be
held up and information is asked as
to what arrangements can be made to
continue the work of the department
to the close Of the fiscal year.
+ Linde's Opinion. s,.,s.t.s g.
Governor Hanna referred the mat
ter to Attorney General Linde and yes
terday received the following reply
from Mr. Linde:
"In your letter OF the 14th in which
you enclose letter from G. J. John
son, State Examiner, you ask for the
opinion OF this Office with respect to
the deficiency in the appropriation
provided for the State Examiners de-
partment. N 4.
You ask whether or not there Is
any way in which the work Of the
department can be continued until the
appropriation for the next biennial
Period is available. From an exhaust
i've investigation Of the subject am
of the opinion that there is no other
appropria lion or other money avail
able for the payment Of the salaries
and expenses of the Deputies and the
salaries of employees in the office of
the Examiner than that provided for
by Section 514a supra, and that when
such appropriation has been exhaust
ed the State Auditor has no right to
issue any warrant for the payment of
any such further salaries or expenses.
In other words the expenses and sal
aries of any department are limited
to the amount of the specific appro-
priation provided therefor. 49,.
The salary of the examiner, how
ever, is provided for by separate ap-
preparation under Chapter Al of 1913
Session Laws 1t would seem 70 be
within the discretion of the Examiner
to retain only such Deputies, Steno-
graphers and Clerk hire during the
balance of the present biennial per-
iod as can be paid out Of such appro-
priation.

ITALIANS IN ASIA.

The Berlin Lokal Anzeiger states
that Italian troops in considerable
force landed on the Turkish island OF
Rhodes in the Aegean sea. The island
of Rhodes is in the Mediterranean at
the entrance to the Aegean sea, and
lies close to the main land of Asia
Minor. 1t is about 900 miles south OF
the Dardanelles, and approximately
half that distance from Smyrna,
where also the allies have been con-
ducting operations against the Turks.
No official report was received Of the
declaration of war between Turkey
and Italy,

Don't Sign
Any Petition

Aided by a group of paid
agitators who are here from
St. Paul to foment trouble,
the perennial candidate for
governor is making a last
desperate stand to referend
some twelve or fourteen
laws, comprising the best leg
islation passed at the last
session.
Thousands Of individual
petitions have been sent
through the mails asking
voters to assist in suspending
laws passed for the welfare
Of the state. =.
The itinerant politician be-
hind the movement up to
date has secured less than
1900 signatures to petitions
sent broadcast over the state
a month ago. Disappointed
and chagrined over his fail
rue, he hopes to accomplish
his purpose by the mailorder
route. Practically 10000 sig-
natures are necessary.
If the voters in this portion
Of the state have their own
interests at heart, they will
consign these petitions to the
waste basket upon receipt.
The repudiated politician be-
hind the referendum Of bene-
fetal laws seeks to deprive
the unfortunate insane at
Jamestown Of adequate quar-
ters. He would also prevent
the educational institutions
from operating under the
board of REGENTS bill. Many
other measures which he pro-
poses to suspend were passed
in the interests of good gov
ernment. aEs.
# you desire to assist the
itinerant politician and the
paid agitators from st. Paul,
imported for the occasion, in
vitiating laws designed to
protect the insane, and to
safeguard the state in a hum
dred other ways, by all
means sign the petitions. fw
If you want, however, to
protect your best interests
and save the expense Of a
possible extra session of the
legislature followed by a spe-
cial election, don't sign any
petitions.
Don't aid the schemes of
designing politicians who
seek to grind their axes at
your expense.
DON'T SIGN ANY PET1-
TIONS
