twenty tables were grouped artistic

by Mrs. Edgerton and assisted by Miss

The evening was enjoyably spent in

After refreshments, the local Red

MAJOR HANLEY'S
SALARY HELD UP
State Auditor Kositzky Doubts
Legality of Paying

Major J. NJ. Hanley's salary as Judge
of the 18th judicial district is being
held up by State Auditor Kositzky
pending the receipt of an opinion
which he asked from Attorney Gen.
eral LANCER as to the legality of the
jurist's drawing two salaries-one as
major of battalion In Uncle Sans

other as a district Judge in North Da.

the same amount. Should he be com.

ship, no financial sacrifice would be
involved. - ts:R !
y Judge Nuessle Of the sixth district
has been handling Judge Hanley' s
business in addition to his own. Ne
cessarily there has been some little
,delay-the work OF the district has
not been attended to promptly as
would he possible were one Judge de-
voting all of his time to this one cir.
cult. =
Our state laws require that after
a man has sixty days absent from the
state his position as a public officer
shall become automatically vacant.
I am not certain, therefore, that l am
not violating the law when pay Maj
or Hanley his salary. 1t is my 0pin-
ion that the law requires Governor
Frazier to appoint some one, at least
temporarily, to fill the vacancy"
AS courtesy due the bench the
practice of permitting jurists to sub
stitute for one another, without pay,
has been followed In North Dakota
from time immemoriable. In the par
ticular instance now in question, it is
understood that Judge Nuessle has
taken on his extra duties without pay
in order that Judge Hanley, who left
North Dakota in command of bat
talon of the second regiment, might
retain his place on the bench while,
serving his country. Judge Hanley
is a veteran Of the Spanish-American
war and former Of the First, from
which he resigned at the close of the
Mexican campaign. When the Second
was, organized,.a commission as major
was offered the Mandan jurist, and he
finally accepted, a short time before
the regiment was ordered to Camp
Greene. ,fs

houses and hotels in cities near which
ships are being built. All empty
houses available will be taken

today by President Wilson authorizes
the board to commander not only
houses but land, and transportation
systems as we'll 1t is entirely likely
that the land on which houses are
to be built will be Communicated in
most instances, to prevent speculative

The shipping board already has
made survey Of housing facilities
in the neighbOrhoOd of ship plants
and is ready to take whatever is avail
able Immediately. Compensation will
be determined by the Emergency

In communicating houses the board
will go into the suburbs and to sum.
mer resorts where many houses and !
hotels have been empty all winter.
Some houses available for accomm0
dating ship workers have not been

E he Auto as Necessity.
Please remember that the auto.
mobile is necessity for speedy and
low cost results. In our achieve
ments OF progress it is as import,
ant as the telephone. What would
you do If all the telephones were put
out OF commission? What would
you do tomorrow il an automobile of
any kind was not available? The
automobile has grown to be neces-
slty. Today it is as essential as the
telephone, telegraph or present day
mail service to the business man and
farmer. What physicians would do
without the automobile is a question
that furnishes food for thought. With
the farmer long distance from town
when he breaks certain part in his
binder and when all of his grain
stands dead ripe. it is a problem of
wasting whole days cutting or
only an hour or two .n.
humanity is better Off. as a result
OF the automobile What would New
York. Boston and Chicago do If it
fere no tor the motor bus? Even
here in Bismarck the motor bus has
taken the place OF horsedrawn con-
veyances and the reason for it is
that you San get to your destination
cheaper, and quicker. The automo.
bic is necessity for both business
men and farmer-it makes for greater
progress and better prospects," '' 4
