Events Scheduled.

Arrangements are practically COM

A great lea Of school time has al.

where we are going to get enough
money to pay salaries and current ex-
penses. and one or the other will
have to wait.
II would not have made this state
ment," continued the state auditor,
III It had not come to my ears that
paid workers Of the league are spread
ing the report over the state that /
am holding up certain bills simply
through spite. / have never operated
this ONCE on a spite basis. and I don't
intend to begin now. The bills are
being paid just as rapidly as we can
find money to pay them, and they are
being paid in their proper turn. No
body Is being favored and no one is
being Disseminated against. I feel
that in justice to myself the people
should have the truth.
1--WE have. gone on creating new
commissions and new boards and new
departments until we have outstripped
our revenues. Now there must be a
halt, and some must suffer.
There's only n means. Of putting
money into the state treasury and
that 10 through taxes. fees or fines.
We have discovered too many ways
OF taking money out Of the state treas-
ury. The last assembly alone voted
almost 100000 in emergency appro-
priations, all OF which come out Of
the general fund"

"I2don't know" he said. II haven't
been paying any attention to those
things"
After failing to retain possession of
the office Of superintendent Of public
instruction, Macdonald instituted quo
warranto proceedings in the Burleigh
county district court to determine
whether or not Miss Nelson was
qualified to hold office. This case has
not come to trial. Macdonald said
today that they were waiting for the
attorney general to bring it to trial.

Bangs Explains
Law Regarding.
Dance Pavilion

In the following communication re-
ceived today. City Attorney George
A. Bangs sets forth his view of the
law in regard to the proposed estab-
lishment Of a dance pavilion in this
city, against the proposed erection of
which near Lincoln park protests are
being made:
April. 4, 1919.
Editor Grand Forks Herald: +
of S. B.. No. "a, the city had a prac-
teal power over the location of dance
halls and pavilions by virtue Of Its
power to grant or refuse. a license
therefor. This power was taken away
by Senate Bill No. "a and vested in
the attorney general. Under 8. B.. "a
the attorney general possesses all
the power formerly held by the city
council to grant OF refuse licenses and
thus the attorney general has the
practical power to fix the location Of
The city yet retains all Of its powers
to regulate dancing halls and pa

or refuse licenses therefor.
Whether the power thus retained
by the city council includes the power
to control the location of dancing
halls and pavtlions is an interesting
question with respect to which I
should prefer not to express an
opinion until called upon by the city
council 50 tt do.
The question, however, may be
stated thus: Has the city council the
power to forbid the private owner of
property to make use Of 1t for this

attention and thought to their inter-

Brahms readings are unsurpassed by
any I have heard and the sensation
he created in Boston last February

out. On the other hand. his grasp
OF the moderns is equally remarkable

of the fact that the same symphony

Governor Harrison said the formal
act granting independence was one
that only congress must take and that
the administration would present the
matter at the appropriate time. He
added he could assure the mission
that the object that seemed to pre-

ago had greatly diminished If it had
not virtually vanished. 1t was found

To VOTE ON REWARD LAW
GOVERNOR BELIEVES PEOPLE
OUGHT TO FIX POLICY
Assembly Acts on His Request-COm-
plicatiOns That May Hold Leg
islature Longer

After members of the state senate
had practically finished their work
and betaken themselves TO their homes
for Fourth of July vacation, new COM
plications arose in the lower house
over the message submitted by Cow
ernor Philip, in which he recon-
mended that the big financial bonus
or reward bill for soldiers be submit
ted to the people for their approval.
In response to the governors mes
sage the assembly defeated the SEN
ate bill for an appropriation of $15,-
100000 to S20,000,000 and passed the
Nolan bill providing for a special cleo
ton August 10 on a program of bon
uses. Before this bill can be effective,
1t must run the gauntlet of the senate,
IN which body referendum proposal
has once been defeated. Should the
senate attempt to stand it's ground in
the face of executive opposition, late
ness IN the session and difficulty of
getting quorum in the assembly, the
whole program for aid for service men
may fail.
The senate met yesterday to clear
up remaining business. 1t may then
be confronted with a veto of the Nye
bill to establish at state expense a
kind of army college, to give college
training to all service men.
Gov. Philip denounced the meas
ure as calculated to assist the further
education of those who least needed
it, Int that most of the young men
who entered the service would not be
qualified to enter the institutions des-
ignated, the normal schools university
and colleges.
The 215 per cent beer bill was CON
Cured in by the assembly and has al
ready gone to the governor for his
approval.
