GEORGE MALONE
CHARGED WITH
SHERMAN'S YEA

Because George A. Malone Of
Wilton, the miner member Of the
legislature from Mclean, author Of
the workmen's compensation and
mine inspection bills, somewhat re-
sembles J. C. Sherman Of Steele,
member Of the Emmons- kidder
county delegation, whose seat is ia
the same section Of the house, Mr..
Malone yesterday in The Tribune's
report Of the debate on House Bill
II, Inadvertently was quoted with
a statement made by fMr.. Sherman.
rwieheIishad said: "'n order: to
do anything; they've got to have
the governors consent. The other
two n,ssn bsrs ae-far AZ doing. any,
thing are Dummies, are they not?"
Malone was credited with having
replied, "Yes, sir"
THIS response was made by Sher-
mani and the gentleman from Nc
Lean VIZ not on the floor at any
1tin1e during the DEBATE. " l'l@'@'H ,''''
Mr.. Malone also states that he
was misquoted in his debate on the
personal ? exemptions bill in the
house, and that he did not refer
to the merchants as "sp;dery"
sorts Of individuals.
The Tribune gladly makes these
corrections in justice to all con-
cerned.

JOHNSON THINKS
P U UBLIC SHOULD

Former Equity Head in Petition
Tells Why He Asks for
Hearing on Bills

NJ. p. johnson of Tolley, former rail
way commissioner, former state head
of the North Dakota Equity, and. until
this morning, when Townley forced
him out, member of the state equity
boa rd, was denied public hearing on

toned the house of representatives yes.
terday.
Johnson's reasons for believing a
public hearing advisable were set forth
in the following communication
To the Sirtcenih Legislative Assem-
bly:
Gentlemen:
In your effort to so alter existing
business methods and industrial opera
tiOns in our state as to make it easier
for the ordinary citizen to acquire a
home and competency for himself and
family and better education for our
children. all right thinking people who
believe in q square deal must sympa-
thize, but inasmuch as there is a wide
difference Of opinion among many and
a great uncertainty in the minds OF
others as to the best and most depend
able course to pursue to attain the
desired end since you are contemplat-
ing the enactment of laws that will
bring about an almost complete re-
versal with reference to two funda-
mental principles Of government devel-
opment in our state Of its natural re-
sources of public service utilities, Of
industrial enterprise and greater prog
ress in popular education, than any
where else in the world in the same
length of time, the writer respectfully
submits:
1. That. no such law or laws should
he enacted without providing for a
public hearing on each of such meas
ures, and
2. That no one Of such measures
should become operative without be-
ing submitted to the people for rati-
ftcation or rejection and receiving at
such election the approval Of a major
ity Of all those voting on various prop
Osfti0ns
I further submit that all of this will
be in harmony with the prediction

Rate of Reduction, From, First
Year Adopted After Some
81 E, Merry Debates

After Opposing of pro-league meas
ures, the senate Thursday afternoon
devoted an agreeable three hours to
good natured discussion of the amena.
ed motor vehicle registration act,
which is something of a puzzle to all
the legislators. The debate resulted
in the final passage of the bill amend
ed for fifth time as to license fee,
to provide that the cost of regisctra-
tion for a new car shall be five mills
on the list price, 20 cents per hundred
of weight, and ten cents per unit of
horsepower, with a provision that
this fee shall be reduced ten per cent
the second year, 25 per cent the third
year, and 40 per cent the fourth year,
and that thereafter the fee shall nver
be less than so per cent of the basic
fee. with the further proviso that in
no instance hall the annual fee be
less than IS. ..;s
Senator King introduced the amend
ment, but admitted that he was in
clined to question whether it would
make the fee high enough. Church
said he was somewhat responsible for
the amendment, but that he had
changed his mind on the question to
some extent, inasmuch as a ten.year-
old car can wear out the road just as
much as much as spick and span
new one He suggested that this reg
istration fee was not so much q prop
erty tax as road tax, and that the
wear an ter on the rod should be the
most importnt consideration
Senator Hyland offered as an
amendment that the reduction pro-
posed on old cars apply only to the
five-mill tax on the property value
of the car, and that the weight and
horsepower assessments, which might
properly be considered pure road
tax, be permitted TO stand unchanged
50 long the car remained in use.
Church explained as the reason for
abandoning the original straight one
per cent tax on the list value of cars
that the advalorem taxation plan pro-
hibited under the laws Of the state q
tax of more than five mills on prop.
erty vlues for state purposes.
Senator Kings motion fixing a slid.
ing scale of reduction in registration
fee of Is, 25 and 40 per cent finally
carried, as did an amended amendment
proposed by Church that the registra-
tion fee never be reduced to less than
$500.
Several other minor amendments
were adopted, and the bill, still with
some points in doubt in the minds of
the senators, was at last passed. It
is believed the house will have some
ideas of its own on the subject, and
that the bill may come back to greet
its old friends once more.
