SUPREME COURT
SETTLES FIGHT
ON INSPECTORS
Commissioners Battey, Bertsch

COMMISSION POSSESSES
ITS POWER AS BODY
Has Already Confirmed Judges
Named by Members of
County Board

In an opinion which will be filed
in a few days the supreme court re-
ssJ.alssi Etsossle silli his inSeFprst-
atiofrsof the manner in which election
inspectors are to be selected. The
court will hold that if any appointive
power inheres, the city commission
possesses it as a body and that it
does not lie Individually. This was
the contention of Commissioners Bat
tey, Bertsch and Lucas, when City At
torney McCurdy reported on Judge
Nuessle's opinion. They promptly
named the same inspectors as those
selected by the county board in Gr-
ing upon the eve of the primarieG
While the court has not announced
the details of it's opinion, the gen
eral result was given out yesterday
Action was started first by Carl
Kositzky to restrain County Auditor
Flaherty from delivering SUPPLIES to
inspectors named by the county
board. This writ was quashed because
of the irregular procedure, but at that
time Judge Nuessle stated informally
his position, which was that the city
commissioners should cast lots and
the one winning should act as III
spector in his precinct and appoint
the other five to serve with him. This
was reported to the commission.
While willing to name the inspectors,
Commissioners Battey, Bertsch and
Lucas took the position that lots
should not be cast, but that the ap-
pOintment should be made by the en-
tire commission. They then proceed
ed to name the same inspectors as
selected by the county board.
Then City Attorney McCurdy man
damused the city commission to pro
ceed by lot to name the inspectors,
and it, was upon this writ that heav-
ing was held Monday before Judge
Nuessle. He ruled that the appoint
ments must be made by lot.
Attorney General Miller, who rep
resented the city commission, cch-
tended that il any right inhered with
the commission it was as a body AID
not otherwise. 1t was on this point
that the appeal was made. AS to just
where the power lay, it was admitted
by counsel that the law was defective
as no change has been made to gov
ern commission forms of government
This defect probably will be reme-
died, if any exists, along the lines in
dicated by the opinion of the supreme
court.
The court acted with unusual
promptness in the matter and clears
up situation that might have proved
embarrassing in view of the short
time until the primary.
All sides are gratified that the point
has been decided without ill-feeling
on any side. E

tention to hold floral, industrial and
commercial parade on Monday, July
3, and a patriotic, civic and military
parade on Tuesday, July 4. Last eve
ming it was the concensus of opinion
that all energies SHOULD be concen.
trated on the preparedness parade
for the Fourth, which will be the most
impressive enterprise of this nature
undertaken to date in the northwest.
Every civic, fraternal, military and
semi-military organizations in the Bis
marck territory; every commercial

icipal, county and state organization
Ordepartment; all public and semi
public bodies will be invited to parti-
cipate in the demonstration as
whole, while all individual citizens of
the Slope country in attendance at the
celebration will be urged to take part.
The present prospects are that from
two to four bands will be on hand to
lead the procession; there will be
scores of beautiful patriotic and alle-
gorical floats; dozens of appropriately
decorated automobiles, and, it is pre-
dicted, from 5000 to 5000 men, wo-
men and children in line. The prepar-
edness parade will terminate with
patriotic exercises in the auditorium,
at which the principal orator prob
ably will be man prominent through

It VIII not be a small vote, even if weather conditions should be unfavorable to country travel, for the people are now ouite aroused on the bond issue prop osition.
 Election prophets are hesitatlns when it comes to foretelling the re- sult of this election Advocates of the amendment and opponents have been busy during the last two weeks trying to persuade their friends and neigh bors.
 The amendment should carry by an overwhelming majority. It will carry if a majority of the people take a bus. iness-like view of the states financial condition.

OUR KIND OF A MAN

By James WhitcOmb Riley. The kind of a man for you and me! He faces the world unflinchingly, And smtes, as long as the wrong re-
 sists, With a knuckles faith and force like
 fists; He lives the life he is preaching of, And loves where most is the need of
 love; His voice is clear to the deaf mans ears, And his face sublime through the blind
 mans tears; The light shines out where the clouds
 were dim And the widows prayer goes up for him; The latch is clicked at the hovel door, And the sick man sees the sun once
 more, And out OCT the barren fields he sees Springing blossoms and waving trees, Feeling as only the dying may, That Gods own servant has come that
 way, Smoothing the path as it still winds on Through the golden gate where his loved
 have gone. The kind of a man for me and you! However little of worth we do He credits full. and abides in trust That time will teach us how much is
 just. He walks abroad and he meets all kinds Of querulous and uneasy minds, And. sympathizing, he shares the pain Of the doubts that rack us, heart and
 brain, And. knowing this as we grasp his
 hand We are surely coming to understand! He looks on sin with pitying eyes E. en as the Lord, since Paradise Else, should we read, Though our sins
 should glow As scarlet. they sholl be white as
 snow?- And, feeling still. with a grief half glad, That the bad are as good as the good are bad, He strikes straight out for the Right and he Is the kind of man for you and me!

THE WICKEDEsT CITY

From Answers.
 Which is the wickedest city in the world?
 If you ask an American this question he will probably name Chicago, which has most unenviable reputation. But he will be wrong. The dscredit undoubtedly belongs to Irkutsk, in Siberia. The pop ulation of Irkutsk-the very name has a cutthroat sort of sound about it-is 120000, and every year 800 murders are committed there. That is a worlds record; and, what is worse the murderers generally get off scot free, for arrests average only about 1 in every 50 murdered. and only one-half of the arrests are followed by convictions.
 Tn order to remedy this state of af- fairs Irkutsk once decided to have a wig ilance committee of it's own.
 It got one-the worst viligance commit tee on record, for eX-convicts and active thugs enrolled themselves by the score and were given exceptional power by the governor.
 The reign of terror which followed is unparalleled in criminal history The DO. lice were massacred. Rich merchants were shot in broad daylight under pre- tense of being suspects. system of house inspection and penal confiscation was introduced. which was another way of saying wholesale burglary.
