We are trying to get the people to
observe the rules, also, so it will be
fair all around. There is no sense
in auto drivers not driving at the
required rate of speed and observing
the other provisions Of the ordinance
and the traffic law. If they violate
these rules the only thing for us to
do is to arrest them. We can't keep
track of every violation but we are
trying hard to do so.

there would be no complaints nor

Two violators of the traffic law
were before Judge Gibbons yesterday
afternoon when Chief Ripple made

deavoring to impress upon his hear
ers the meaning of traffic law and

BATTLES PUSHES WORK
ON REM0DELINC STORE

Charles E. Battles last evening
asked the city council for permission
to occupy part of Beltrami avenue
for material in remodeling the old
Challenge hotel, adjoining his brick
business block. Permission was
granted, and already the hauling Of
material has commenced.
Work is now progressing on the
excavation for a basement under the
entire structure.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Battles
to entirely remodel the old hotel,
making it an attractive and substan-
tial business building. The front
will be entirely transformed. A new
plate glass display front will be in
stalled and from the top of the first
floor front the building will be stuc-
coed in an attractive color. In ad-
dition to the present building, an
addition of thirty feet will be built,
making the store room 80 feet in
length. The interior is also to be
remodeled and when finished will be
occupied by Mr.. Battles with his
hardware business.
The removal of Mr.. Battles into
this building when completed, means
that the j. C. Penney store will oc-
cupy the present hardware quarters.

Washington, May 28.-A deter
mined effort will be made by admin
istration forces to eliminate the Ran
dali dry rider" from the emergency
agricultural appropriation bill in the
senate committee on agriculture.
Failing there the fight will be car
ried to the floor Of the senate.
President Wilson is understood to
be opposed unalterably to the prohi-
bition feature inserted into a meas
ure designated to stimulate food pro-
duction last week by substantial
vote of the house. 1t will not be
surprising if a statement is issued
from the White House soon setting
forth his position.
Congress already has given Mr..
Wilson full power to deal with the
use of foods in the manufacture of
light wines and beer. The alcoholic
content of such liquors has been re-
duced sharply by president tial order.

The German offensive is pro-
crossing on both sides of the
Aisne and Flanders fronts. In
the latter sector the fighting is
still furious along a forty mile
front. In the former sector, the
battle has simmered down to a
local affair near Dickenbush
Lake.
The German offensive front
now extends practically con-
tinuously from Dixmude c.
Rheimes, or 235 miles.
London and Paris both admit
the Germans have CROSSED the
Aisne representing an advance
of four miles. This also seems
to support German claims of
capturing Chimen des Danes.
There are no Americans in this
sector.

Forthcoming on the recommendation
of the Federal food administration.
The Randall rider" seeks to force
the president to take step which he
hitherto has found inadvisable. 1t
proposes to get action by withhold
ing funds needed in stimulating food
production.
If the senate accepts this kind Of
prohibition the country will soon he
on whisky basis. The supply OF
beer and wines soon will be exhaust
ed leaving hundreds Of millions of
gallons of whisky and other hard
liquors still to be marketed.
1t is understood the White House
agrees with the food administration
in the belief such a situation will
lead to increased drunkenness; that
instead of bringing about temperance
it will cause greater intemperance,
for many Of those used to the lighter
alcoholic drinks will turn to the
heavier ones.

the Twin Cities have been asked to
aid in the search for C. e. Ballard,
president of the State Bank of Gryg-

room, but instead left the hotel and
was not seen again.
Mr.. Ballard left satchel in his
