Everything Indicates That
the Usual Rush at End of
Session Will Not Occur
This Term.

bismarck, N. D., Feb. 24.-That
President Frame of the senate has
been making rulings that are eminent
ly fair in his dealings with the many
questions Of parliamentary law that
have arisen in connection with the
fight on woman's suffrage was proven
in two instances yesterday. The first
was when Senator Allen, a supporter
of the suffrage bill in statement to
the house said that the rulings of the
presiding officer had been good in ev-
cry instance and again when on an
appeal from a decision of the chair
there were only nine votes opposing
the chair The woman's suffrage bill
came up again in the senate and there
were four roll calls and everyone
showed that the opponents of the suf-
frage bill We're still in the majority.
There was a large amount of work
accomplished in both houses Of the
Legislature yesterday and at the time
they adjourned last night the senate
and the house could each see where
they were going to come out of the
fiftieth day with all the work required
by that time cleaned up. Practically
all the time yesterday, last night and
this morning was given over to the
passage Of bills that have originated
in each house and probably at no ses-
sion of the legislature has the work
been in better shape for good clean
up than in the case this afternoon.
One of the surprises of the session
was the defeat Of the bill providing
for a horse power tax on automobiles
half Of the money to go to the county
where it originated and half to be ex-
pended by the state highway commits
sion. This bill was recommended for
passage by the committee Of the
whole and then was lost in the house
on third reading by margin of only
three votes.
! In the senate the surprise came
when there were only nine votes rec
order in favor of the present tax COM
mission This expression of opinion
came on the vote for the passage of
the Heckle bill providing for one
man tax commission instead of the
board of three as the law provides at
present.
1t is not probable that there will be
any more night sessions for the rest
Of the week as the only business in
either house will be the consideration
Of bills that have originated in the 9TH
er body and the work of the confer
ence committees.

VALLEY CITY NORMAL
LOSES TO M00RHEAD
IN UPHILL GAME

The Valley City boys started strong
by scoring seven points to the Moor
heads one in the first ten minutes Of
play. When the Moorhead team saw
that they would have to fight they did
not hesitate to do it They were much
heavier than the local boys and had
no trouble in outclassing them in
rough playing.
Personious was injured at the be-
ginning of the game as a result of a
collision with one of the Moorhead
huskies fists. Markuson was ruled
out of the game at the beginning of
the second half.
The game was hard fought through
:out, with the game anybody's until the
final whistle blew.
Smith and Markuson played great
games at the forward positions for the
local team, while Carlson played a
brilliant defensive game. The whole
team was seriously handicapped by
two large iron pillars in the middle of
the floor.
The local team is picked by most
critics to win the conference cham
pionship, they have scored 235 points
to their opponents 145 this season.
They expect to win the game with

Yesterday another new consolidated
school was dedicated in Barnes coun-
ty This new school is located in Bald
win township, six miles from the town
of Pillsbury.
The new building is in every way a
splendid one, and being located on the
open prairie as it is and six miles from
the nearest town, is quite an excep-
tion to the general rule of consolidated
schools over the state, although there
are some of this nature. The building
is a two-story building with a full
basement and is in every way adapt
ed to school and community purposes.
1t is steam heated. In the basement
is a splendidly gymnasium, while the
two rooms on the second floor are sep
arated by rolling partition that per-
mits of it's being converted into one
large room for community purposes. !
Another feature of this consolidated
school is that the consolidation takes
in all the school districts in Baldwin
township. Already there are Is boys
and girls enrolled in the high school,
giving these farm young people an op-
portunity of securing high school ed
ucation without going to the cities or
towns for it. They can be at home and
get this education, which is perhaps
one of the best features of consoida-
tion, although there are large num-
ber of other good points to the system.
The dedication yesterday began in
the forenoon and was completed last
night by basket ball game between
the Baldwin consolidated and the Pills
bury consolidated schools.
The program in the forenoon opened
with song by the high school and was
followed by the invocation by Rev.
Bendelo, of the Pillsbury Presbyterian
church. There was flag drill by the
grade school children, followed by an
address by County Superintendent
Miss Nelson, of Barnes county This
address was followed by cornet solo
by Mr.. Anderson, which preceded the
dedicatory address by State Superin-
tendent E. J. Taylor, who was present
for the opening of the splendid new

IN ORE
ASSAYING $386.70 TON

The persistent quest of $500 ore in
the drifts in the Austin Dakota mine,
a quest that has been the purposeful
objective of Manager Littrell from the
beginning has every promise of reali-
zation this week.
A second or hanging wall ledge
came into the drift on the 300 level
a week ago. This ledge appears to
be converging toward the foot wall
ledge and will apparently unite farth-
er in the hill. The two ledges now ex-
posed in the face of the drift are each
twenty inches in thickness. An aver
age assay made across the new ledge
gave values Of $50 in gold and $3S4.1O
in silver per ton. An assay Of the
foot wall ledge gave $50 in gold and
$99.2O in silver The ore is permeated
with iodide of silver and telulrium.
The drift 100 feet above this level is
also being extended and is in face of
more than three feet of ore. These
facts prove the correctness of the
plants along which the property is be-
ing developed.
The ore showings in the mine at the
present time justify the company, in
the opinion of the manager, in begin
ming to figure on the installation of a
milling plant of at least ten units.
The ledge system shown on the sur
face near the main workings include
series Of veins parallel with the ore
bodies already proved, with several
north and south mineralized dykes

Hiqh School.

The program. of the High school
Monday afternoon in honor of Wash
ington's irthday proved a very inter-
tanning and profitable one. When Gov
ernor Hanna, Ex-Governor White and
other prominent figures had taken
seats on the platform, Mr.. Brown ask
ed all to raise and sing America. The
vocal selections next rendered by Mr..
Myers were we'll received. The Nor
malonians also favored us with a
charming spring song. The Governor
was then introduced by Mr.. White.
Governor Hanna referred in opening to
a need Of smaller legislative bodies to
save much time and work. Then fol.
lowed delightful description for over
an hour of many interesting things
and the Halls of Congress with &C.
counts of several famous battle fields
of the Civil War. The closing pic
ture of the great reunion at Gettys.
burg in 1913 was vividly drawn, and
the whole discourse proved so inter-
esting and instructive that not one
present felt but well repaid for the
time spent. The Assembly Room was
nearly filled with students and teach
ers Of the city schools and Normal,
with many town people. All agreed
that the Chief Executive had struck a
patriotic chord of no small power by
his pleasing address.
Mrs. D. B. Berlin of Wimbledon
gave very interesting and instruc-
tive talk about birds, to the student
body Wednesday morning.
