INITIATIVE ACT
LEGALITY POINT
RAISED IN SUIT
ON AMEN DMENTS

In proceedings brought to prevent
the secretary of state from placing
on the ballet the group of constitu
nonal amendments proposed in in
ltiative petitions filed by the Nonpar~
tisan league, not only is the proce-
dure SO far taken attacked, but the
question Of the legality of the initia-
tive amendment to the constitution
itself. under which attempts have
been made to initiate further amend
Irlents, is also raised. 1t is commended
that the legislature which passed the
amendments the second time, failed
TO spread them on the journal, as
required by the constitution.
Papers were filed with the supreme
court at Bismarck Wednesday after
noon, and will be acted upon by the
court when the full membership, or at
least a quorum of the court, is in Bis
n1arck. Attorney A. G.. Dlvet, Of
Fargo, in charge of the proceedings,
said he was informed that other
members Of the court would be on
hand Saturday or Monday next.

GERMAN OFFICER
SHOOTS TEN MEN
DURING MUFFIN
and SURRENDERS
(By Associated Press.)

With The British Forces In France,
Aug. 29.-The towns Of Relloy, AS
sevillers, Herbecourt and Feuilleres
were apparently taken during the
night.
North OF the Somme the British
are reported to have captured Ginchy
about half way between the river
and Bapaume.
Ginchy is one OF the highest posi-
tions in this section Of the battle
zone. There was sanguinary fight
ing for this position this year be-
cause OF it's Importance. Its posses
sion by the British may cause q
change in any plan the Germans
have for holding the line roughly
from Peronne on the south to some
where near Bapaume.
North of Bapaume there has been
heavy fighting at various places
where the British are cleaning up
strong German posts.
BullecOurt Is less than a mile from
the British line this morning.
Generally speaking the main Brit
ish body Is within 1000 or 1000
yards of the famous Drocourt-
Queant line. A smash through here
would menace the whole area back
Of the old Hindenburg line and the
next place where the Germans can
offer stiff resistance is, perhaps, the
line Of the anal Du Nord.
The Last Defense Line.
After that there are said to be no
prepared defenses Of any Importance.
The Germans in their confidence
never considered they would need
them.
Astride the Scarpe the British
this morning moved from the line
east Of ArIeux through the east side
Of Oppy wood. Posts apparently are
in GavrelIe, half way across Green
land hill, east of Pelves and east Of
Berry. British Posts also are in
Remy and Mancourt, east Of
Croisilles.

A Leader of the Allies

Gen. Ferdinand Foch, who has been put in
preme command of the armies of Great Britain,
France and the United States the 'front.' is of
Basque origin, and is famed as a strategist.
Foch began by mastering the strategy of the
war of 1870 in it's minutest details Knowing the
mentality of the Germans, he counted upon their
peating IN future conflicts the maneuvers that had
succeeded. He also expected them to make some of
the old mistakes.
In his teachings at the Superior war school and
in his writings he held always to the idea of in
evitable aggression by Germany, sprung with light
nnglike rapidlty after long generalization and most
minute preparation-the swift thunderbolt of the
opening to develop into struggle of colossal pro-
portions To parry the blow. Foch said repeatedly
France must have staff working in the same direc-
tion practicng the same doctrines under vigorous
and audacous chief Sinking responsibility, pre-
serving the equilibrium of his mind and the force of
his intelligence under formidable difficulties and
ercising without hesitation the most redoubtable
rights over his subordinates
Tall, thiu elegant. with fine head and features.
General Foch is pile of bearing but authoritative.
From his gray eyes shine the intelligence and will

military training by directing the of his talk

constancy should hold in every life. A love and
friendship is in truth exalted and worth holding in

lodge thy people shall be my people, and thy God
my God: Where thou diest, will die, and their
will be buried: the Lord do 50 to me, and more
so. if ought but death part thee and me-"
Judge your friends by this standard and when
time brings hours when friend is needed you will
have cherished those who will stand the test. And
you have been disappointed and forgotten.
we'll your friendship and loyalty to others by
this same standard. There is middle ground
where constancy is concerned, One is loyal or dis
