WORKER BUREAU
FAILS IN EFFORT
TO BLOCK QUIZ
Supreme Court Holds That Call
ing in of Judge Hanley
Was Regular -a

The calling in Of Judge J: NJ. Hanley
Of the sixth judicial district to hear
State Auditor Kositzky's petition for
an order giving him entry to the books
Of the workmen's compensation bureau
in the absence of Judge Nuessle, the
regularly presiding jurist in this half
Of the fourth district. was upheld by
the supreme court today, when 1T de-
clined to issue a writ Of prohibition
against the hearing Of Kositzky's plea
by Judge Hanley, prayed for by S. s.
Mcdonald of the worlmen's compen-
sation bureau.
The opinion of the court written by
Chief Justice A. NJ. Christianson, holds
that writ of prohibition will be
granted to arrest the proceedings
of a tribunal, corporation or board
only when such proceedings are
without ar in excess of the juris--
ldiction of such tribunal, etc. In this
case it was held that Judge Hanley,
in common with other district Judges,
possessed jurisdiction in another dis
trict; that he was a judge Of the sixth
judicial district called in to act as
judge in the fourth judicial district
upon and pursuant to the written re-
quest of one of the judges of said
fourth judicial district, and that there
is nothing in the law which in any
manner prohibits judges from acting
III a different district from that in
which they are chosen. On the con-
trary, rules the supreme court, the
act expressly recognizes the right of
the supreme court to call in a judge
/ from another district.
It. is, contended by officers of the
" orkmen's compensation bureau that
their defeat in supreme court in this
instance means nothing, inasmuch as
the supreme court in separate action
a few days ago held the workmen's
compensation fund a special fund, and
10 part Of the public moneys of North
Dakota. This decision, it is held, will
prevent State Auditor Kositzky from
examining the books of the bureau
under the statute which makes it his
duty to examine and audit the accounts
Of all state officials, boards and COM
missions which have to do with the
collection or disbursement Of public
funds. 55s .5. s. q

HALL DECLARES
RECALL AC I IS
BADLY J0KERED
Law as It Is to Be Submitted to
People for Approval Is
Farce, He Says
TO GIVE VOTER CHANCE
Believes Electors Should Have
Privilege of Dismissing
Public Servants
TO GIVE VOTER CHANCE

"Some of my Nonpartisan friends
have been lamenting over the fact
that at the present time the people of
this state do not have the right to re-
call their public servants" remarked
Secretary of State Hall today. "The
league organs have been proclaiming
that when the constitutional amend
ment proposed by the last legislature
assembly (Senate Bill No 16S, Chap
ter SO, Session Laws of 1919), has
been approved by the people, this will
be remedied. On this I wish to take
issue.
"The proposed amendment provided
for the recall of any elective official,
by petition signed by 80 percent Of the
qualified electors who voted for gov
ernor at the preceding election, and
the holding Of special election not
less than forty or more than forty
five days from the filing of the petit
tion. M
"The officer against whom such
petition has been filed shall continue
to perform the duties of his office un-
til the result of such special election
shall have been officially declared.
Other candidates for such office may
be nominated in the manner as is pro-
vided by law in primary elections.
The candidates who shall receive the
highest number of votes shall be
deemed elected for the remainder of
the term. The name of the candidate
against whom the recall petition is
filed shall go on the ticket unless he
resigns within ten days after the fill
ing of the petition" g.,
"Now in the first place the primary
election law does not apply to special
elections. (Section 852, Compiled
Laws 1918, State ex rel Burtness v.
Hall, volume 81, North Dakota re-
ports, page 259), and secondly, it
would Of course, be impossible to call
and hold both a primary election and
the special election within the period
limited, forty-fve days.
"The primary election law relates
only to party nominations. Section
s51, declares, ut is the intention Of
this article to reform the methods by
which political parties shall make
nominations.
ut is the intention OF the proposed
amendment to have party nomina-
tions. If so, is the recalled official
denied the privilege Of having his
rame appear in his party column, if
not is his party denied the right Of
selecting some other candidate?
GAS the recalled official automati-
cally goes on the ballot, and no work.
able method by which another can
didate can have his name placed
thereon, this law is merely a farce
and is being used to fool certain
class of people with. The men who
drew the bill know that it cannot
operate. ,
"The legislative having been called
to meet in special session, I therefore
suggest, that it strike out this joker,
and propose a workable law, so that
the people may actually have the
power to dismiss Objectionable judges
and officers from public service"

JUMP OF MORE
THAN SIX CENTS
IN CORN TODAY

Chicago, Nov. 3.-Jumps of more
than six cents bushel in the value
of corn took place today and purchas-
ing took on big proportions. Breaking
up of the longshoremen's strike at New
York together with increasing anxiety
as to whether supplies at terminal
markets would be of sufficient volumn
to fill contracts for December delivery
were the chief reasons for the steep
advance. -

GOPHERs UPSET DOPE

Madison, Wis, Nov. 3.-Minnesota
upset the dope completely here and
landed Wisconsin its first defeat of
the year, 10 to Z. in game featured
by the terrific line-plunging of the
Gopher backs who tore great holes in
the Wisconsin line and romped around
the enemy's touted ends, Meters and
Weston, for big gains.
Wisconsin was on the defensive al
most every minute of the first half
and did not open up with it's best
trick, the worward pass. until the third
quarter. Then the Badgers worked
a half dozen passes for long gains
only to be checked when other throws
were Intercepted by the Gophers.

NO BACK TO MINES RUSH
Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 3.-No
movement Of men back to the
mines developed in the early
Monday report from the coun-
try's bituminous mine fields. A
small number of Ignite miners
in the Burlington, N. D., area re-
turned to work after being on
strike one day. This was the
only place where reports were
received Of men reporting for
work Monday.
No attempt by operators to
work the coal mines in the
unionized territory were re-
ported. It was said the opera
tors would make no effort to
operate until the miners show
a disposition to return to work.
There were no reports of law
lessness from any of the mining
fields and the first arrest re-
ported in connection with the
strike came from Walsenburg,
Colo., where United States

100000 YET AT WORK

While operators admitted that
the figures given out by union
leaders as to the total number
of men on strike were approx
mately correct, they pointed out
that close to 100000 non-unlon
men were at work in the Penn
sylvania and West Virginia
fields and that nearly 10000
union miners were working
under contract in Kentucky,
signed recently.
Federal troops today were in
the mining region of West Vir-
ginia, Tennessee, Wyoming and
New Mexico under orders to pre-
serve the peace in case disorders
arise in connection with the
strike. One company OF the
32nd infantry also was on It's
way from San Diego, Calf, to
Utah for duty in the coal fields
of that state.
The national guard of Colo
RADIO and Oklahoma have already
been sent to the coal districts OF
those states and several COM
panies of state troops have been
mobilized at Birmingham, Ala,
in case their services are needed.
Federal troops have been
ordered to be held in readiness
in every department of the army
for service whenever state au-
thorities ask for assistance IN
keeping down disorders.
