Liquor Handling Concerns
Actively Circulize State
League Protests
Fargo, , N. D.

A determined effort to stamp out the
system of ''circulariZing" North Dako-
ta, as employed by liquor handling
concerns of the nation has been
launched, by the North Dakota En-
forcement league.
F. L. Watkins. superintendent Of the
league, makes this statement Of the
matter:
THE North Dakota Enforcement
league Is receiving numerous protests
from over the state against liquor
advertising coming through the United
States mail by the thousands and the
letters include such terms as an insult
to North Dakota an insult to intelli-
gent people, There letters urge action
to put an end to such advertising.
There are two ways to stop this:
First, there is a. movement on now
backed by the united temperance
passage Of federal measure prohibit
ing the use of mails for liquor
advertising. Second. if the coming
legislature would pass what is known
as the Bone dry law prohibiting the
transportation of any Intoxicating
liquor into North Dakota for beverage
purposes, the liquor companies would
have no further reason to advertise in
this state and Ut would practically
solve the problem of law enforcement.
The people of Arizona and Oregon
have adopted such a law by popular
vote and other states are getting into
line.
What do you say? We would be
glad to hear from you as to your
opinion on this matter. If the time
has come for such movement we are
ready to put the North Dakota En-
forcement league back Of it."

THERE WAS TROUBLE
Drug Clerk Put Postscripts to Private
Correspondence of Many.
(By Associated Press.)

Chicago. Dec. 15.-A mystery Of the
obnoxious postscripts and suggestive
sentences that women Of a west side
residence section have found in their
most intimate correspondence was
solved yesterday. according to federal
authorities. with the arrest and con-
fession of Irving Zeitlin- a drug clerk,
that he had added offensive post
scripts to letters left by the carrier
for a few minutes each dav in the
drug store in which he was employed.
Complaints to James e. Stuart,
chief postal inspector here, said the
letters to mothers from dutiful sons
would contain inexplicable phrases
when delivEred and wives of most
sedate husbands were mystified by
the postscripts which came In let
ters from their husbands.
The carrier. it was learned, left his
mail sack in the drug store daily
while he carried a smaller package OF
letters on one street. During his alb
sence. the drug clerk extracted letters
addressed to women in the neighbor-
hood. wrote in the postscripts and
sealed them up. He was charged with
causing obscene matter to be sent
through the mails and with obstruct-
ing the mails.

ARE HELD
LIABLE
FOR DEBT
Subscribers to Stock Declar-
ed Responsible for I'm
paid Portions
REFUSES TO DISMISS SUIT
Action Growing Out of Tim
ber Investment Co. Case
Continues

That stockholders in a corporation
are liable to creditors of that corpora
ton to the amount of their unpaid
stock subscriptions, was held by Judge
Charles A. Pollock yesterday afternoon
in the district court In handing down
a decision In favor Of the receiver in
the case of M A. Baldwin, receiver of
the North Dakota Improvement Co.,
against the Timber Investment Co..
and f1fty-two subscribers to stock,
whose subscriptions are not paid in
full.
This is the first time that this point
of law has been decided in this state
under section 4554. which makes
stockholders directly liable to credi-
tors to the amount of their unpaid
stock subscriptions and is therefore
of great interest over the state as we'll
as to those interested in this particular
case.
Shortly before the North Dakota I'm
provement Co, went into the hands of
the receiver it loaned to the Timber
Investment Co.., $4,000. and it is on
these notes that the receiver based his
action against the subscribers to stock
the face Of unpaid subscriptions being
$4,000.
Subscribers Object.
Seven subscribers to stock in the
Timber Investment Co., appeared in
court and contested the action, set
ting up a great number of defenses
such as fraud in the procuring of sub
scripkpns, fraud in the management
Of ths Timber Investment Co., the
statute Of limitation and that the sub
scriptions had been cancelled.
Judge Pollock held that none Of
| these defenses could be urged against
the creditors under the statute.
On the last defense the court held
| that subscriptions cannot be cancelled
at will after the contract for stocks
had been made especially as these sub
scriptions relate to the creditors of
| the company issuing the stock.
The subscribers in court contesting
the action were G. e. Burgess and
John McFadden, Valley City, repre-
sented by Atty. NJ. J. Englert; DR.. j.
