tives Of the engineering department
have been in the city for everal days,
. installing sales and Office equipment
and vulcanizing machinery. Tie man
ager, with his corps of sd esmen and
tire repair experts, will arrive heXt
week The new distributing agenLy,
with its service department, will mean
the addition ia half dozen families

The Fisk Tire COMPANY formerly
handled this business through the
Fargo factory branch. Other factory
branches aree located at Grand Forks
Minot, Aberdeen and Eillings.I The
Bismarck plant will serve all of ceen-
trail and western North Dakota and
extreme EASTERN Montana, and it is
expected to become befo"e the end of
the first year the largst distributing
house of this company in North Da-
kOta. Bismarck distributes more au-
tomobiles than any other city in
North Dakota, and it must naturally
follow, believe the Fisk people, that
the demand for automobile accessories
viii be greater here than lseWhere in
the state.

PEOPLE MAY
VOTE ON. THREE
PROPOSITIONS
Two Referendums and One Init.
alive Before Voters This Fall
if Courts Do Not Interfere
WILL DECIDE FATE OF
1-8 MILL ELEVATOR TAX

Three propositions will be put up to
the voters Of North Dakota for a d.
rect vote at the fall election unless
the courts intervene in the two pro-
positions that are being contested.
Advertising of them must COM
mence August rs, but the courts may
step in at any time before election
day and prevent a vote.
The two referendum on laws are:
Referendum on Chapter 258, 1915
Session Laws, relating to the Is of a
mill tax for the terminal elevator
fund. NE
The last session repealed the chap
ter and the people will now vote on
this act of the legislators.
Referendum on Chapter 1914, 1915
Session Laws, defining crime Of boot
Logging, held defective by the SUI
preme court, now pending in federal
courts.
The initiative on the constitution is
to amend Section 215 so as to make
New Rockford the capital of the
state. This proposition is now pend
ing before the supreme court.

vantage Of the Special Bargains.

pany to run d service track" across
Third avenue south. There appears
to be considerable opposition to the
matter. Just recently the council
granted the company permission to
run its track up to Third avenue.
Another matter Of Importance
which is requiring the attention of
the city officials is the matter of uni
form taxi fares. 1t is stated that dur
ing past fairs held in this city the
rates which the taxi owners charged
were eXorbitant and as result many
complaints were made to the secre-
tary of the Fair association, who this
year took the matter up with the
council, which authorized the city at
torney to draft an ordinance.

HARVEST is ON
IN DUNN COUNTY

Dunn Center, N. D., Aug. 10.-The
extreme warm weather has ripened
the grain much quicker than expect
ed and many farmers are forced to
leave the mower and rake in the hay
field anad hitch to the binder to cut
thee fields of GOLDEN grain.
Although this sudden ripening may
not allow the late grain to fill to the
very top of the head it will serve well
otherwise by eliminating any progress

of black rust which was being felt the
most in the south country, very little
being manifest in the north.
The crops are looking fine every
where and if the elements will but
allow the farmers to cut what they
have as fast as it ripens, a feeling Of
contentment and satisfaction will be
abroad. ...
Hail has done damage all around to
the south, east and northeast, but so
far none has fallen in Dunn county
and it is hardly likely that twill.

NEWS NOTES FROM
NATIONAL CAPITAL

Washington, Aug. 10.-Congress-
man P. D. Norton has gone to his
home at Hettinger and will probably
not return to Washington until next
fall as the house of representatives
has practically concluded all business
for this session and is simply mark
ing time to permit the senate to con-
clude the consideration of measures
now pending.
The agricultural appropriation bill
with the federal grain grading and in
spection provisions has finally been
agreed to. Both Senator McCumber
and Senator Gronna made a forceful
fight to have that provision agreed to
in the form in which it was passed
by the senate, but the house conferees
held out against the senate and both
senators declare the law is far from
being adequate to give the relief de-
sired They hope that, with the next
congress under Republican control,
they can so amend the law as to make
it of some benefit to the grain raisers
of the country.
Mr.. and Mrs. "A. l.. Tenney of Valley
City, N. D., have been visiting in this
city. Mr. Tenney has been attending
a meeting of insurance agents of New
York.

is considered bumper and the

the want of harvest hands, help being
