mortgages in North Dakota. John ].
Hastings, financial secretary Of the
league, stated in recent interview
that $1,000, 900 are invested in North
Dakota securities by twin city banks.
The action of the league will be at
tackled on the ground that the plan
Of removing the limit for bonded in
debtedness, the attempt to authorize
the state to guarantee bond Of pub
lie and private utilities, industries and
enterprises, and the single tax plan,
imposing all the burdens of taxation
upon land, wounld jeopardize foreign
property interests.
The canvassing board, of which the
majority are league members, accord
ing to Secretary Hall, plans to act un-
der Section 1925, laws Of 1892, which
DEGREES that the majority Of votes cast
upon any question will carry it, de-
spite the fact that the initiative and
referendum chapter Of the constitution
adopted in 1914, require a majoriy of
all legal votes to approve a constitu-
tional amendment initiated at that
election.
As late as Nov. 2, the Nonpartisan
Leader, an organ Of the league, car
ried warning to voters that votes not
cast for amendments would count
against them, iDasmuch as under the
state constitution amendments re-
quired majority of all votes. Prior
to that, at least two warnings OF a
similar tenor were issued, one by Pres
ident A. C. Townley, and another by
the republican state central committee
in a pamphlet entitled TRUTH" and a
number were printed in the Nonpar-
tisan Leader.
The vote on league amendments fol-
lows:
The initiative and referendum; e.
ducing the number Of electors required
to initiate to 10000 at large; number
required to refer legislation to 1900

of members present and voting in each
house; yes, 1921; no, 32,057.
Amendments; reducing the number
of signatures required on petition to
initiate constitutional amendments to
10000 electors at large and providing
such amendments shall be approved

by law to exempt any or all classes of
personal property, including fixtures,
buildings and improvements Of every

constitutional debt limit Of 5000, 900

100000 shall be secured by first

cast to insure their adoption, but that
an actual majority Of the vote cast
either for or against the amendment
was sufficient.
The state canvassing board, which
was expected today to declare the
amendments passed, failed to meet
this afternoon as the official returns
from Wells county are still missing. A
special messenger has been sent for
the returns, and he is expected back
Monday, when the board will hold it's
final session.
An effort to enjoin the Nonpartisan
league from proceeding under the con-
stitutional amendments probably will
be initiated in federal courts by for
eign corporations, which have much
capital invested in the state.

Miss Foss Near the Front Lines.

Many Minot friends will be greatly
interested in hearing that Miss Anna
bel Foss, a former Minot nurse, was
one of the five nurses chosen by DR..
Quain to go with him very near the
front lines to work. Miss Foss is in
base hospital numbered 60 and Miss
Harriet Spillane, Balfour young
lady, is dietician in the same hospital.
Miss Foss writes that she served on
the front line just one week before the
signing of the aEmistice. In letter
written to her sister at Velva, she
states that she helped unpack a ship
ment Of hospital supplies sent out by
the Bismarck hospital unit in which
were articles furnished by the Velva

The grade around the north end Of
Oak Lake is so high and narrow that
it is hoped the county and township
will both help to widen the grade be
fore some serious accident happens.
The grade should be put in according
to state specifications. In fact, that
whole road from the township line to
the White-Toronto road, 6 miles long,
should be put in first class shape be-
cause of the heavy auto travel. 1t be-
ing the main road to White and Brook
