The |. r. Twins
The senate tenderly laid away an
other set of initiative and referendum
twins. The bills, 37G and 1913, were
born in the house, first cousins of
the pair which Senator WenstrOm
fathered in the senate early in the
session. Their purpose was to make
the signing of petitions popular and
profuse by removing all restrictions
which would prevent from doing so
anyone without paralysis in his right
hand. The senate renewed it's resolve
that the present initiative and refer
endum laws are sufficiently liberal,
and consideration was deferred by a
vote of rs to 20 on House Bill SIS.
and rs to 20 on House Bill 1913.

"Seventy-eigh proved itself an I'M
lucky number, these numerals being
attached to the workmen's compensa-

Senate Bill Is had passed the senate
applying only to steam railways. The
house so amended it as to include
all public service corporations. When
the bill came back to the senate with
the amendments tackled on, the senate
joyOusly indefinitely postponed it's fur
Their consideration. The senate never
was very strong for the bill anyway.
Compensation Idea Wrong
The wOrkmen's compensation bill
was an administration measure, fav-
Ored by Governor Frazier and endors-
ed by the state federation of labor
1t proposed to place in effect in North
Dakota the Washington plan of COM
pensating workmen for injuries aris-
ing out of industrial accident. The
senate opposed not the theory of
workmen's compensation, but the
method proposed, which would pro-
vide for state-administered fund,
contributed to by employers accord
ing to an arbitrary schedule fixing
their risks.
Washington had a state-administer-
ed fund. Things ran along nicely for
a while. Then one morning the treas
urer of the fund was found missing,
and the fund disappeared at the same
time. Then contributors were called
upon to do some more digging. More
than half the states in the union now

Dickinson Announces Largest
Purchase of Cattle in State
This Year
TO BE DELIVERED AT
WATFORD CITY IN MAY
Especial to the Tribune.)


Dickinson, N. D., March 2-The
largest purchase of stock cattle in the
state this year was made the first
Of the week by the firm Of Richards
& Wilcox. who contracted for ,0333
native Montana yearling steers and
heifers to lie delivered at Watford
City the first of May.
The cattle are being wntered by
sheep growers at Chinook, Mont, and
are being fed alfalfa and blue joint
hay. 1t was a case of saving a lot
of splendid feed which induced the
men to buy the calves at i. high price
last fall and, Of course, they have to
sell this spring, as they do not have
summer range for anything but their
sheep.
W. l.. Richards learned of the herd
OF yearlings and went up at once,
reaching the ranch the last of last
week. He was pleased with the stock,
which he believes to be as good a
bunch Of native stuff as he ever saw,
and lost no time in contracting for
spring delivery. The cattle cost $45
per head for ycarling steers and $50
per head for the heifers. The same
cattle year ago would have been
priced at $40 per head for either
steers or heifers.
This purchase Of cattle when deliv-
cred at Watford City, will have been
carried 3O2 miles and will then be but
80 miles from the ,Berthold reserva-
ton, where Richards & Wilcox are in
terested in pasture Of 100000 acres
With their 1917 crop of calves and the
new purchase they will have over
5000 head of cattle in their pasture.
Mr.. Richards is of the opinion that
this is a good time to buy cattle,
notwithstanding the price is high.
