district judges from $4,000 to $4,000

On Monday the house adopted a
resolution authorizing payment OF
$100 to each member for the special
session "in lieu of supplies" A previ-
Gus resolution was declared by the at
torney general to be unconstitutional
and the old boys worked in the words
Gin lieu of supplies" to legalize it.
The vote was SO to 29 and the amount
required to pay the members will be
1900.
With an amendment striking out
the deduction of tuition feature, found
to be Objectionable to the service men,
the senate late on Tuesday unani-
mously passed the service mems bonus
bill and sent it back to the house for
concurrence in the change.
Disbarment proceedings against
Francis C. Cary, Minneapolis attor-

The senate yesterday attempted to
suspend the rules to permit introduce
ton of a bill by Senators Adolph Lar
son and James H. Hall to increase the
salaries Of members of the legislature
to 81 500 for the biennial period. 1t is
now $1,000. The bill went to the
rules committee.
The house committee on insurance
procured passage under suspension of
the rules of it's bill giving farmers
mutual fire insurance companies the
right to form a central Organization
and reinsure in the new association.
While the tonnage tax bill has
passed the house, it had not up to
yesterday been voted upon by the
senate, and the primary election
measure had not reached a vote in
either house. AS this is the last day
of the session the legislators will be
compelled to do some tall hustling if
they expect to get the important
measures introduced passed before IL
o'clock tonight. In fact the PROPOSE
tion looks like an impossibility.
Governor Burnquist will have the
power to kill almost any of the
measures passed at this extra session
by the "pocket veto" method. While
the legislature is in session he is re-
quired to act on bills within three
days after they reach him or they be-
come laws by default. After the
legislature adjourns, however, he can
refuse his signature to any bill reach
ing him, and there is no opportunity
to pass it over his veto. Aside from
the suffrage resolution no bills of i'm
portance have reached the governor
yet, and he can hold any of them until
after the adjournment if he wishes.

A AMERICAN LEGION
Meeting to Organize Local Post to
be Held at Armory Next Mon
day Night, Sept. %.
Soldiers, Sailors and Marines Are In
vited to Major
.Caswell Will Speak.

AN e1lOTC Will DC uldue ucAC MOuOay
night at the armory to organize a
local post Of the American legion
and every service man in this village
and surrounding country is invited to
participate. Luncheon, cigars, Gig
arettes and amusement features
will be furnished free by the arrange
ment committee. The doors will open
at 1880 and card playing be in order
from that time until 9:15, when the
organization meeting will be opened
by Major Arthur A. Caswell of Anoka.
He will address the gathering on the
American legion, subject with which
he is perfectly familiar.
The American legion is an estab-
lished fact. It is the realization of
"an organization after the war" which
was talked Of in every cantonment in
America, on board every ship in the
navy and in every unit and section of
the A. E. F. It is the crystallization
of the wish of every soldier, sailor and
marine to organize after the war. "In
union there is strength" and in this
particular union will be found the
bulwark of Americanism. The legion
has grown and it's spirit has spread
because it is worthy. In every test
at the outset it repelled selfshness,
narrowness and partisanship and
clung tenaciously to it's. underlying
Observation-Disclosures.
The legion is an organization of
American veterans Of the world war.
1t is nonpolitical, civilian organiza-
ton, neither military or militaristic.
1t makes no distinction of rank and
no distinctions between overseas men
and men who did not get across. Any
soldier, sailor or marine who served
honorably between April 6, 1917, and
November II, 1918, is eligible. *a
The legion was first organized in
Paris in March, 1919, by a thousand
officers and men, delegates from all
the units Of the A. E. F. being present
at a meeting which adopted tenta-
tive constitution and selected the
name, american Legion" Posts
are now being established throughout
the United States and bills are pend
ing in congress for national incorpo-
ration.
France has it's legion, and to be a
French legionnaire is a high honor,
so it will eventually be with the Amer
lean legionnaire boy who served
his country in the late war.

Hundreds of lives were lost and

CONTRIBUTED LITERALLY

A subscription was taken up by
J. H. Grenzeback to defray the ex-
penses of the Jerome brass band at
the Eden fair, he being authorized
to do so by the Jerome committee on
arrangements for said event. Mr..
Grenzeback soon found that he would
either have to slight some of the
business people by not asking them
to contribute, or he would have more
money than was needed to pay the
band boys for their days work. How
ever, lie went on soliciting, and the
surplus, amounting to a couple hun
dred dollars or so, will be given to
the band organization to buy instru-
ments, music or whatever equipment
they may need They were sorely in
need of funds to buy equipment, and
this little sum coming in at the op-
perfume moment will help to solve
the problem for them.

COMPLETE INFORMATION
ABOUT NORTH SIDE TRACT

The Bruneau" number OF the
New West Magazine advertised in
this issue of The Times is especially
interesting to the people of the North
Side Tract as it contains four pages
relating directly to this city and sur
rounding country. A two-page panor-
anna is one Of the illustrations. while
the text gives information that every
farmer should have for reference.
Those having friends in the east will
find this number we'll worth sending
to them as it contains more practical
information about the North Side
than they would likely tell them in
a whole year by writing letters. The
articles on the Bruneau project give
advance information about what is
being done in Washington to help
reclaim the West
