SONG OF THE NIGHTINGALE
One Need Not Go Far From the
Haunts Of Man to Hear BIrd's
Sweet Strains. ~

One Of our great American natural
lists once went to England In hope to
hear the nightingale. Although he.
wandered for many miles over Surrey
and Hampshire, his search was we'll
nigh fruitless. Had he gone no farth-
er than the outskirts Of London. he
might have Jared better. There are
still certain spots In the suburbs to
which the nightingale returns year af-
ter year.
One Of them ia Wimbledon Common,
where the bird sings every spring, oft.
en-, however, quite unrecognixed by
those who hear him. 1t il commonly
believed that because, as all the world
knows, the nightingale sings by night.
he keeps silence during the day. New
er was delusion more ill-founded. It
might be In part accounted for II the
bird were Of particularly timid and
fearful nature. But he IL not; In fact.
nightfngales ara. as q rule, least shy
where they are most accustomed to
mans presence.
Not only does this much misunder-
stood bird (some nightingales, Of
course, moro than others) sing at in
tervais all day long. but he appears
at times to take delight in singing to
Q crowd.

some neglect about Insurance. What
with the kids and other reasons you
could see she was nervous about this
travelling. Anyhow. we hadn't gone
far before the conductor found out that
she was on the wrong train. Then she
broke down, but she was as proud as
q well-bred woman could be. II didn't
take the drummers-there were six Of
them-long to find out that she was 90

was 80 darned reserved that NO one

Health Board May Name Secretary.
Having several weeks ago. partly
for political reasons, rejected the state
board Of health's bill to allow the
board to nominate its own secretary,
the governor to make the appoint
ment, the house reconsidered and
passed the bill by a vote of 50 to 80.
II passed the senate before It appeared
In the house.
The majority Of the members Of the
state health board are Republicans.
and the present secretary, Doctor
Burkart. who was appointed by Gov
ernor Ferris without nomination BY
the board, II . Democrat. While the
bin was rejected last month II was
currently reported that members OF
the Legislative peanut politics club
were afraid that II the Republican
board got chance 1t might ask the
governor to reappoint Its Democrat
secretary for full term Of six years.
But, by rejecting the bill. Doctor
Burkart could continue in ONCE until
1917. when, It Is expected, there will
be . Republican governor who would
make the board take some good Re-
publican manipulation for secretary.
Heretofore the boards secretary did
not have to be doctor. or even ex-
perienced In health matters. The bill
that Il now passed requires that the
secretary must have had ten years ex-
perience In the practice Of medicine.

IN DISGUISE.

Two years ago the North Dakota
legislature repudiated the full crew
bill because of its apparent unfair.
ness to the railroads without any
corresponding service to the public.
The same measure in disguise is be.
fore the legislature again in the bill
limiting the size of a freight train.
This bill is drawn with the avowed
intention of compelling the railroads
to employ more men. Shorten the
train load and you increase the crew,
The bill in its practical application is
the same which a few d%isgruntled az,
iators sought to foist on the state at
the last session.
This, however, is a form of railroad
batting which is not popular with the
public. At the fall elections Missouri
revoked by the operation of the ref
erendum law, a full crew law tha1
had been enacted. The vote on this
issue was overwhelmingly against i'm

provided that the school board of any

English" Mr.. Bratton moved that

HERE TO fight
COUNTY BILL
Nelson County Citizens Aroused
Over Senate Bill Changing
County Seat Removal.

S. G.. Skulason and w. c. Fair,
banks. both CT Lakota, are in Bis
marck to present arguments against
the passage of the pending bill b!
which it is proposed to make import
ant changes in the law regarding the
removal Of county seats.
The present law provides that to
institute proceedings for the removal
of a county seat a petition signed ~
SO per cent Of the legal voters asking
for an election must be filed with the
county authorities, and that at the
election SO held, two-thirds OF the
votes cast must be il favor of remov
al to secure a change. The pending
bill makes no change in the Prov.
sions for petition, but provides that
in counties whose buildings are worth
not more than SIS 900, as determined
by a board Of appraisers. a majority
of the votes cast shall suffice for re,
moval.
It is generally understood that the
bill is intended to facilitate a cam
paigl for county seat removal in Mel
son county. though it is necessarily
| general in its provisions. Mr.. Skula'
son and Mr.. Fairbanks say that they
have learned that great interest is
being taken in the bill in many other
counties. where its purport has not
been understood until recently.
ut is impossible" said Mr.. Fair
banks to say how many counties this
will affect, because no one can tell
how many counties there are whose
county buildings would be appraised

posing additional and unnecessary
burdens upon the railroads at this
time.
There seems to be no disposition
on the part of this legislature to re
verse the position taken two years
ago. The same arguments that ap
piled against a full crew bill are
equally potent against this measure.
The Tribune di.ects the attention
of the leg stature TO the action taken
in Missouri.
In reporting this bill for indefinite
postponement, a majority of the SEN
ate COMMITTEES on railroads reflected
the attitude of the state toward the
common carriers, which is II o. ab.
sOlute fairness. no more nor no less.
