To be Given at the Normal School

is.

All arrangements have been made
for the recital by Charles w. Clark
at the normal auditorium Friday ev-
ening. Mr.. Clark is Americas great
est baritone and the Norrona Singing

for the Moorhead recital.
A rare program has been arranged
and the noted singer will be heard in
a wide range in the sixteen numbers.
Music lovers of the two cities have
already shown their appreciation of
the artist by the early reservation
Of seats for the recital.
Manzanita E. Stephens, of the
voice department of the Fargo College
Conservatory Of Music. who was a
fosmer pupil of Charles w. Clark in
Paris. is enthusiastic over his coming
recital in Moorhead. She considers
him one of the greatest song interpret
ers of the present day. being the pos
SCISSOR of q magnetic power given to
few artists, his diction and interpreta-
ton being remarkable, and his voice
being handled with perfect ease.
He has a personality which grips
his audience from the beginning to the
end of his programs, and his concert
promises to be one of the most sat
isfying of the many which are being
given in the community this season.
There should be a full house to
greet singer who is as famous in
Europe as he is in his own country.
Reservations may be made at Mar
tinson's jewelry store Moorhead, and
at Christianson's drug store Fargo.
Special rates have been made for all
students of the schools and colleges

Attempt to Construct
Drain in Canada Not
Within States Power

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 1s-North
Dakota attempted to expend money in
improvements on foreign soil. in di-
rect conflict with the federal consti-
tuition, when, represented by its
agents, the combined drainage board
of McHenry and Bottineau counties,
1t authorized the extension of the So
called Mouse river channel drain IA
miles north Of the International boun-
Diary.
That is the point on which McHen-
ry county, challenging the power of
the drainage board to order such
work and attempt to assess the BEN
eft against property in McHenry and
Bottineau counties, seeks to have de-
clared null and void all proceedings
of the drain board as related to the
drainage work on the Canadian side
of the boundary line.
In the process Of widening and
Strengthening the channel of the
Mouse river. which. in previous years,
has inundated the many thousands Of
acres of fertile land, 1t was deemed
necessary, by the engineer in charge,
to extend the work beyond the bound

CONSTITUTIONAL DRY DATE
May Be JUNE |, 1920

That compromise will be reached
between the date fixed in the house bill
and that named by the senate temper
ance committee for the constitutional
prohibition bill to take effect in Min
nesota, is now thought to be assured.
The house bill fixed Jan. l, 1920, as
the date. The senate committee has
deferred 1t to Dec. 1. 1920. The pro-
posed compromise date is either May 1
or June /, 1920. This would eliminate
the saloons from Minnesota before the
political campaign of 1920.
The compromise may be reached on
the senate floor next Thursday, when
the bill is taken up as special order.

will be a band wagon" rush. Not less

predicted, will vote for the bill

DRAINAGE CONGRESS
PROJECTS ENDORSED

The joint commissions from the Min
nesota, North Dakota and South Dakota
legislatures at st. Paul decided to rec
ommend that the three legislatures
proceed to enact legislation for drain
age and flood control along the lines
laid town by the bill formulated by the
Tri-State Drainage congress last month
at Fargo, and that each state appoint
a conference committee of three to sug-
gest amendments to the law to the next
legislatures, but not to interfere with
the legislation to be enacted at the
1917 sessions.
The attempt to effect a settlement of
the suits filed by North and South Da-
kota against Minnesota for Red river
flood damage was abandoned. North
and South Dakota delegates wanted the
Minnesotans to make a proposition rel
alive to the matter. This they could
not do. it was pointed out, because they
would thereby admit responsibility for
the damage done, and this Minnesota
has strenuously denied.
