Fifteenth Assembly .........-
Passes Many Laws;
for Better Roads

North Dakota will soon take it's
place with other states for the con.
struetion and maintenance of good
roads.
To the credit of the Fifteenth as.
sembly may be noted large amount
of good roads legislation, the creating
a state highway commission and max.
ing an appropriation therefor; divert.
ing large amount of the funds de.
rived from the registration of auto.
mobiles to the use of this commission;
providing for state aid in the build.
ing Of highways and bridges; passing
an act specifically designed to take
advantage of the federal aid for post
roads, and enacting a drag law SINH.
lar to statutes in force in Iowa and
other states which will compel keep.
ing in good condition highways once
constructed.
The state highway commission will
consist of the governor, state engin'
eer, commissioner of agriculture and
labor and two members to be named
by the governor. The governor will
be the chairman and the state engin.
eer will be the secretary of the com.
mission. The bill went into effect
Monday, inasmuch as it carried an
emergency clause, and the board must
be organized not later than April s.
The commission will be in position
to prepare for an early spring cam.
paign of road building.
The law providing for the registra
ton Of motor vehicles will create a
fund of at least half-million per an,
mum to be used in the building of a
state system of trunk-line highways.
With the federal aid, there will be
available almost three-quarters of a
million, and North Dakota will be in
a position to undertake its first com.
prehensive good roads campaign.
Section three of the motor vehicle
registration bill does not become eff.
fective until Jan. /, 1918. It's import.
ant provisions are:
The license fee for registration or
re-registration Of motor vehicles shall
be not less than Sc.
For motor vehicles having a higher
rating than 20 horse power, an addi-
tional fee of so cents shall be added
for each additional horsepower.
Provides, that, if a motor vehicle
shall have been licensed for three sep.
arate years under this act, and the an.
nual registration fee thereafter shall
be one-half of that amount.
The annual fee for registration or
re-registration of motor vehicle or
motor cycle will be SO.
The dealers license fee is placed at
SIS for each make of car handled
The dealers license certificate must
be displayed in the dealers place of
business and the secretary Of state is
authorized to issue to such dealer or
demonstration duplicate set of deal.
er's license tags. AS many Of these
duplicate sets as the dealer may re.
quire for demonstration cars are to be
issued at so cents for each set.
Under this new law tags must be
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1917-03-22

displayed on the front and rear Of
each car. Under the old law, the Sec
rotary of state was required to issue
duplicate tags, but the car owner was
required to display but one. g There
was nothing to prevent his loaning or
selling his duplicate tag to friend,
and 1t is said that this was frequent
ly done.
Another feature of this law is that
the secretary of state is authorized to
employ an agent or agents to enforce
the provisions of this act Motor car
owners will do we'll to remember that
both tags must be displayed this year,
and that "sleuth" may be concealed
behind any fence post, ready to hold
them up If the car is not properly
equipped with two tags.
Section 2976 provides: 1.-THE secre-
tary OF state shall pay into the state
treasury all moneys received by him
under this act which have been paid
by owners of motor vehicles in any
county and shall file with the state
treasurer and the state auditor verified
statements of the amounts and sources
thereof, and the amount to which each

of this act.
ION the fifteenth day of every calen-
dar month the state treasurer shall
pay into the county treasury of each
county to the account of special road
maintenance fund as hereinafter pro-
vided one-third of all the moneys re-
ceived by him from the secretary of
state under the provisions of this act,
and shall credit the remaing two-thirds
to the account of the state highway
fund. Provided however, that the
state treasurer shall first deduct from
all moneys received by him from the
secretary Of state the cost of tags,
clerk hire, printing, postage, express
and other expenses as estimated by
said SECRETARY of state.
"The state highway fund for this act
shall be expended under the direction
Of the state highway commission"
While the increased registration fee
does not become available this year,
there should be no lack Of funds. It
is estimated that North Dakota will
possess $4,000 cars when the spring
buying has ended. These cars at the
old registration fee of SO, will pro-
vide an aggregate Of $4,000, two
thirds of which, with approximately
$4,000 to be received from the feder-
al government, under the provisions of
the Shackleford post roads act, will
give the state $25O,0OO as starter
toward the construction Of good roads.

AN ACCESSORY

Old Dobbin was good old nag,
And he proved mighty handy
In days of old when l would go
A-sparking sweet Mirandy.
He knew the roads that we would
take,
And faithfully he'd take 'em;
He knew the hills that we would
make,
And faithfully he'd make 'em.
Unguided, he, and when at times
Her lips to mine we're pressin',
Implicit faith we had in him
He never had us guessin'.
The while Rugged her, recall
The lines were idly swingin',
Old Dobbin was one good spark plug,
His praise today I'm singin'.

The Photograph with a Soul'
not a "talkin g
machine

This won derful instrument is
mdde in the Edisonn Labora-
tories in accordance with spec
Ifications established by Mr..
Edison personally.
Although the New Edison sells
at u somewhat higher price than
taxing machines, II is manufac-
T. red and sold at a smaller per-
centage OF profit. Furthermore,
owing to the superlatiyely fine
materials used in the manufac-
ture OF the New Edison, the
Edison Laboratories have felt
the increasing cost of materials
more acLtely than any of the
talking machines manufacture
ers. Nevertheless, although the
talking machine people have
quite generally raised their pric-
es, the Edison Laboratories have
stood steadfast in the mainten-
anee of their long-established
prices.
They now find, however, that
IL is imperative. for them to in
crease their prices, but ii is
quite Characteristic of Mr.. Edi-
son that, instead OF making the
increase Immediately, the Edi
son Laboratories give the public
ample warning. The increased
prices will not become effec-
tive until January 1, 1918.
Meanwhile the New Edison, the
monograph with a SOUL" viii.
be sold at the old price. As you
probably know, there is now a
Government tax on monographs
and records. The Edison Lab
oratories are absorbing a part of
this tax, and only q portion of
it is being passed on to the con-
sumner, There is no increas. on
Edison Re-Creations.
You will want to buy your
New Edison prior to January
first. Owing to the uncertain
ties OF transportation, 1t is diff
flcult for us to maintain COM
plete stock. 1t will therefore be
well for you to make your selec-
tion now.
