CONGRESSMAN '
YOUNG HEALING
THE BREACH
WITH HIS AID THE DEMOCRATS
OF THE STATE MAY BE ABLE
TO GET TOGETHER.

Congressman Young Of this state
has recently introduced bill in con-
gress to create second Federal judi
cial district in North Dakota. We
agree with the Minot Optic, when they
say that this measure is a travesty on
Necessity.
It looks as though our congressman,
who poses as a Republican, was lend
ing his aid to the Democrats Of this
state in helping to heal the breach
which has been growing in that party
for some time. There is now one Fed
eral judicial district in this state,
which is ample ,and;plenty. For years
there has been very little important
litigation in the Federal Court in
North Dakota, the majority of cases
being what is known as "Indian" cases
and just why Uncle Sam should be
compelled to create another district
for the purpose Of making room for q
few disgruntled office seekers is not
just plain. j.
When the Democrats too the reins
of government when Wilson was elect
ed there were several candidates for
the various federal positions. Tobias
Casey had some assurances that he
would be given the -. S. district at
torneyship, but he was ditched for N.
A. Hildreth, VIM. Collins Of Botti-
neau was in the race for u. s. mar
shal, and some claim that he was
promised the place, but was cast aside
for Joe Doyle. These things with sew
eral others has caused some bad feel
ing in the Democratic party in this
state, and before another election
comes along things must be fixed and
now Mr.. Young steps IN to aid them
in healing this breach, as, II this bill ID
passed there will be q duplication Of
the Federal court positions to fill in
this state, and Mr.. Collins, Casey and
others can have another whack at the
pie counter. This law would create
the position Of another Federal Judge
giving q position for life to some good
Democrat, U. s. Marshal and Dis.
trict attorney, q Clerk and stenog.
rapher and other minor positions. Yes
North Dakota needs another Fedora
district about as much as cat needs
two tails. If Mr.. Young can't fine
something bette~ to employ his timt
when down at Washington; we sug
= gest that he organize q run dunn

MONTANAiS NEW LAW MAKES
SWEEPING CHANGE IN THE
SMALL TOWNS.

Glasgow, Mont, Jan. 11.-Fully 300
saloons in Montana must go out Of
business under legislation of the last
assembly, which became operative on
January l: Most Of the saloons af-
fected have licenses under which they
would be- privileged to do business
till the conclusion Of the license year,
which is about the middle of the sum-
mer, but the state act nullifes such
right.
Attorney General ]. B. Poindexter
has given an opinion on the law that
affects saloons and bars in small towns
Of less thnan so bonifed residents.
Speaking Of the construction placed
on the law, the attorney general said
he had taken the position that there
must be so bonafied residents living
within a quarter Of mile of the sa-
loon or other place where liquor is sold
to authorize the issuance Of a lice1 e
and the maintenance Of business, CT
the place must contain hotel which
has at least 20 rooms.
The attorney general says the law
requires that the residents must have
resided in the place six months, a.. l
that everybody, including babies six
months old, may be counted. The ho-
tel must be q genuine hotel with q real
business reqtFing. 20 rooms.
Attorney General Poindexter says
he has heard there would be attempts
to evade th4yiaw BY the construction
of buildius3 Of 20 rooms whose pro
prietors would pretend to, run a hotel
business, but that such attempts would
not succeed. ons. Or two towns in the
state are said ia have, such buildings
now in the courle Of. construction, and

nation to bring ae6on.

Contractors and builders generally
are watching with eVer-increasing in
tereSt the remarkable progress that is
being made on the remodeling of
l South Front street, one of the city's
oldest residences, into modern store
room and apartment building. The
way the changes are being made with
out interfering with the upper floors
of the structure is attracting more
than ordinary attention. Great steel
beams are being substituted for oak
rafters, tons of bricks, etc, are being
changed about-and not even the fur
niture in the upper rooms is being
disturbed.
The house. which was erected nearly
125 years ago, was recently purchased
from the Hummel estate by +. NJ. Her.

room at the corner of Market and
Front streets. with two smaller rooms
on Market street, and to add another
story TO the house to provide room for
six fine apartments. Joseph Koons is
the contractor and the whole job will
cost something over $4,000. The Pack
ard Motor Company. it is understood,
will occupy the larger storeroom.
