Norwegian Press
Criticizes Germans

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
CHRlSTIANTA, June 1.-THE criticisms
of the action Of Count Won oberndorff,
the German ambassador to Norway, in
addressing the Norwegian people through
the General Press bureau In a letter at
which the newspapers took offense. has
been even moro widespread than was in
dicated in the cable reports.
From the outbreak of the war Count
Won oberndorff IL said to have attempted
TO exercise a strong pressure on the Nor
wegian press. and 70 have been success
full in keeping It from publishing criti-
cisms OF German methods of warfare and
the treatment Of Norwegian merchant
ships, particularly. His influence through
the Norwegian foreign office was said to
have been indicated by occasional notes
from the department OF foreign affairs.
requesting that certain reports unfavor-
alberto Germany were not TO be mentioned
in critical light for the sake OF Nor
ways neutrality.
Tho torpsdoIng Of the Lusltania was
the first ooepsion on which the Nor
wegian press voiced its criticisms OF Ger
man methods, and the articles that fol-
lowed treated OF the incident IN strong
terms. II appears that the colncidental
receipt Of two anonymous letters by Count
Won obemdorff concernins the emperor
OF Germany led the ambassador to Issue
an address to the Norwegian people
through the General Press bureau. Some
OF the leading papers refused TO publish
his statement, while those which did
print Il accompanied Il with strong ad-
verse comment on the propriety OF his
action.
One OF the examples OF the outspoken
way In which the newspapers treated the
accident Is seen I'm the Norwegian shippins
Gazette, which says;
when the representative OF the Ger
man emperor chooses to address the Nor
wegian people over the head OF Kins
HaalSon and his cabinet he has thereby
relinquished the respect generally shown
representatives OF foreign powers at the
Norwegian court"

EMPTIED LAKE TO GET ORE
Engineering Feat Recently Brought to
q Successful Conclusion Near :
Cobalt; Ontario.

When a lake interferes with modern
Industrial progress the lake must be
abolished, according to a precedent es.
tablished regarding Kerr lake, near
Cobalt, Ontario, which is no longer in
existence. 1t has been pumped dry
because it stood in the way of the
mining of a vein of silver extending
under it. This vein was so rich that
the mining company decided that it
was worth the expense Of pumping
the lake dry. The pumping opera
ton was unusual. 1t required four
big centrifugal pumps, which were
placed on scows floated on the surface
of the. lake. These pumps were large
enough to permit the passage of solid
matter up to four inches in diameter.
The water. was conveyed through
pipes to another lake about half a
mile away. The pumping operations
required SO working days Of ten hours
each, with the pumps bringing up wa
ter at the rate of 5000 gallons a min
ute. The lake covered about thirty
acres and contained more than 4,00O,-
900 gallons Of water.

TIPS FOR HALL.
Bismarck, N. D., June II, 1915,

Bismarck, N. D., June II, 1915.
Editor Tribune. f.
Dear Sir: Just as a suggestion
offer the following analysis to prove
that if the intent of the initiative and
referendum amendment is followed by
Mr.. Hall, none Of the laws attacked
by petitions is ~referended:
Chapter3SG, Senate ELL no. "a, SEES
sion Of 1911, to amend the constitu.
ton to provide for the initiative and
referendum, said: s.
"a referendum may be ordered by
a petition signed by AT LEAST TEN
PER CENT OF THE LEGAL VOT
ERS IN LEACH COUNTY OF AT
LEAST ONE-HALF OF THE COUN'
TIES OF, TILE STAE."
The intent of the phrase, ten pei
cent of%the legal voters in each coun
ty of. at least one-half OF the counties
o.. the state, is plain and can have
but one meaning, and thatsis, that the
petition must be signed by ten pei
cent Of the legal voters in each oi
tWenty-siX counties of the state, and
that it is not necessary to get add
tional signers from any Of the other
counties of the state.
Chapter SO, Senate Bill NO. 153-
Gibbens-Session of 1911, providing
for the amendment OF the constitution
by initiative, provided: ~
ANY amendment or amendments to
this constitution may also be propos
ed by the people by the filing with
the secretary of state at least six
months previous to a general election
of an initiative petition containing
the signatures of AT LEAST TWEEN
TY-FIVE PER CENT OF THE LE
GAL VOTERS IN EACH OF NOT
LESS THAN ONE-HALF OF THE
COUNTIES OF THE STATE"
The phrase, I'm EACH OF not less
than one-half of the counties of the
state" like chapter Sc, Senate Bill
No. 81, is plain, can have no other in

depreciation than that the petition
must contain 25 per cent of the legal
voters in each Of fifty per cent OF
twenty-siX counties OF the state. II
does not provide that there shall be
signed to the petition p per cent OF
the legal voters of the whole state
but simply Is per cent of the voters
Of each OF twenty-six counties or one,
half Of the state. 1sr .
Chapter SO, Senate Bill No. 5, Bes
sessen, 1911 session. concurrent
resolution for an amendment to the
constitution providing for the iniative
and referendum, being the present
amendment to our constitution, pro
vided: e..
"By a petition&signed by ten per
cent Of the legal voters of the state
(from a majority Of the. counties.)"
The first provision is that the reti.
ton must be signed by ten per cent
Of the legal voters Of the state and
that the signatures Of the ten per
cent of the total vote of the state for
secretary CT state must be obtained
from or in a majority of the counties;
if it were intended that the petition
should be signed by ten per cen of
the legal voters from the state at
large and that at least t%wenty-siX
counties should be represented it
would seem that the provision should
read. as follows:
"B, a petition signed by ter per
cent o. the. legal voters of the state
from at least a majority of the coun.
ties The words AT LEAST would
indicate that petitioners would have
to be secured in at least onc,half of
the counties, Or that twenty-six coun-
ties would be necessarily represented
and that the balance could be secur-
ed from any other of the counties Of
the state so long as the t%wenty-siX
counties We're represented.
Ten per cent Of the legal voters Of
the state from a majority of the
counties does not, mean ten per cent
of the legal voters obtained from the
whole state or two.thlsds Of the state.
Yours. truly,
