Bismarck, N. D., May 23.-The
high cost of printing will result in
a dearth of law books for North Da-
kota, unless some ingenious official
can figure way out. When the
time came for the state printing
board to open bids Tor the printing
Of the North Dakota supreme court
reports this week, there was not a
single tender. The maximum
which can be paid by law is $2.25

in the country. although everyone
of them was circularized and fur
nished with specifications, cared to
take contract. at this figure.
The Lawyers Cooperative Pub
fishing Co., New York, has held the
contract for the last eight years,
out it declined to bind itself to the
same terms for another eight years,
which would be the life of the con-
.ract, If accepted. The printing
board has asked Attorney General
LANCER for way ont of it's difficult

PROMISE TO WED
lSPRICE OF GOOSE

Kenmare, N. D.. May 23.-Ou'
of the cauldron in France, where
hundreds Of stories are breaking
daily, comes an interesting tale
from Attorney Karl Stoudt, former.
ly of Kenmare, who celebrated his
birthday in France on April 7.
F. Attorney Stoudt, now a sergeant
in the American forces, wanted to
entertain his friends on that occa-
sion and could think of nothing bet
ter than roast goose dinner. He
went into the country and dealt
with an old French woman for one
of her birds.
When he asked her the price she
wanted for the goose the woman re-
piled that it would cost him nothing
provided he would marry her
daughter.

AMERICANS BUYING
CANADIAN FLOUR

Among the important matters
brought up at the meeting OF the
county food administrators at Fargo
last week was that of buying -four
In Canada. The provinces of Sas-
katchewan and Alberta have no linn
itations on the amount OF -four that
may be bought. Residents of North
Dakota living along the border ad-
joining Saskatchewan have been
going into that province and making
large purchases of -four. As there
is no tariff on the commodity it can
be brought into the United States
at the purchase price with the cost
of transportation added. In return
the Canadians are buying sugar In
the United States. Steps will be
taken at once to stop this evasion
of the food regulations.

PETITION ISSUE BEFORE
ATTORNEY GENERAL

yBismarcv, N. D., May 2S.-Thom-
as Hall, secretary OF state Of North
Dakota, today asked Attorney Gem
eral William LANCER for an opinion
on the question of placing on the
ballot, ten amendments to the state
constitution proposed in initiative
petitions filed by the NatiAnal Non-
partisan league:
! Mr.. Hall Rointss.to to- tn fact that
two yeafa aEo the supreme court
held in the case osapetitiols filed
with him asking that the question
of removing the state capitol from
Bismarck to New Rockford, that
the initiative clause Of the constitu-
ton was inoperative because OF the
failure Of the legislature to provide
machinery, Since then, no step
has been taken by the legislature to
remedy the situation the court held
was fatal to- the initiative petitions.
The Nonpartisan leagues petit
tions initiate amendments carrying
several state ownership planks, and
are signed by over 10000 petition
ers. ..'5
Mr.. Hall also points to the fact
that under supreme court decisions

trance was gained through a side

fyesks, and left Town the night the
gun disappeared. Hes:was the only
person; outside of The Tribune force
that knew the gun was there, and
by his talk during his stay in town
we would judge that he had been
reading more than his share Of Dia-
mond Dick stories, and wanted to be
a full aedged bank robber, He was
traced as far as Minot, and unless
he is taken, in custody soon, it is
believed that he is likely to pull of
some kind of a stunt. He made the
statement here that he would not
be working If he only had posses

Carl Changstrom Tells About
Trip to Allen Factory;
Auto Situation Looks
Better.

Carl Changstrom, president of the
Standard Motor company, received
word form his factory that a ship
ment of Allen AIS had been sent
him and with the few that he had
on hand Mr.. Changstrom is much
envied man on the auto row.
On his recent trip to the Allen
factories Mr.. Changstrom was sur
prised to find the number of women
workers who have become skilled
mechanics in lighter work and have
become of great aid to the big
firms turning out motors and cars
for not only the public, but for
Uncle Sam and his fighting ma
chine as we'll. He reports that the
Allen plant was working full time
and a great deal of overtime to keep
up with the demands of the times.
The Allen company has been
very fortunate and we have been a
little lucky here in Omaha in get
ting cars and the automobile situa-
ton for the winter looks not quite
as dark as it did previously" he
said. There will not be a great
many motor cars made this year
for the use of the public but those
that are being turned out are of a
high grade of workmanship.

we can make immediate deliveries

you believe It'll crossed the ocean,

afterward were separated at Camp
Merritt. They sailed on different

they now have been reunited, much
to the surprise of both. They are

work.
A message came this morning stat
ing that the remains of Ole Egge
would arrive in Madison tomorrow.
His death is about to be investigated,
according to Sioux City papers, as it
is thought possible that dread an
thrax entered his system. Authori-
ties at Camp Dodge. where his death
occurred, will doubtless carry the in
vestigation far enough to determine
whether or not the deadly germs of
anthrax really caused his demise.
Little Harold Olsen is rapidly re-
covering from the injury received a
few days ago, resulting from a gun
shell explosion. His face Is quite
swollen, but he has the use of one eye
and'is able to see fairly well. Har-
old's face is rapidly clearing from the
effects of powder burns and he APP
pears thankful hat he has escaped
blindness and Disagreement for life.
On continuing to improve he will
soon return to his parents home at
Erwin.

wards the lake Saturday, driving an

and his two brothers. George and

ed to pass by him on the left. George
steered for the right side of the road,
but drove too near to the bank, caus-
ing the auto to turn over once in it's
sudden descent. The young people
were thrown out and through some
stroke of sheer luck escaped injury,
but the a did not fare as well. The
top was ruined and the fender and
windshield will have to be replaced.

out, that 1T, what was left of it.
