United States District Attorney
Chas.F. Clyne, who returned here
after a conference of several days
in Washington with Attorney Cen
eral Palmer, said that the campaign
against hoarders and proIiteers

tigators and that action in his office
was just beginning.
Resumption of sales of surplus

League Associate Justice Not In
Accord With Townley
Attacks

unconfirmed rumors are prevalent
to the effect that petitions calling for
the impeachment of Attorney General
LANCER, Secretary of State Hall AMI
State Auditor Kositzky are being sir
culated by the Nonpartisan league. AS
to one of this trio Associate Justice
James Il. Robinson, league member o.

on record
In public letter, Judge Robinson,
says: "Now in a few days the solons
and wise men from the east do meet
at the capitol to correct their own
errors and to restrain and curb those
young thoroughbreds who despise cor
rection and who are continually
kicking over the traces But Kosit-
zky, he must be given a clean bill Of
health, with due comm endation be-
cause he is good worker, he does not
fear to speak the truth, and he has
done the people great service by con-
tinually pointing out the rocks on
which the ship of state is in danger
of being wrecked. He shows how the
last assessment of land was increased
more than four-fold over all other as
sessments and how there was then
added a general average Of about 80
percent."

In other words, the state will
hold that under martial law the
governors rights are supreme,
and that the operation of the
courts and of all other civil func-
tions is suspended.
Assistant Attorney General
George K. Foster will represent
the state in urging dismissal of
the action brought by the Wash
burn Lignite Co., praying an
order restraining the adjutant
general from interfering with
the operation Of their property.

CAN ORDER EXECUTIONS
The legislature some years
ago suspended capital punish
ment in North Dakota. Under
martial law, it is contended, the
governor may restore capital
punishment, try, judge and exc
cute as he may see fit. He is,
the states legal authority in
sists, supreme. There is no
power short Of the United States
government which can question
his acts as absolute dictator Of
North Dakota.
The rule which the state con-
tends would apply to the district
court will also, it is held, be ap-
plicable to the supreme court,
which Governor Frazier could,
should he choose to do so under
martial law, indefinitely adjourn.
Or, it is pointed out, should the
supreme court make any decis-
ion adverse to the governors
martial dictatorship, he has the
power to suspend the supreme
court and to reverse it's rulings.
The one power left the courts,
if the state makes good it's con-
tention, is through the writ of
habeas corpus, under which the
courts could, if appealed to,
wrest from the governors hands
any prisoner who was arrested
and held without due process Of
law,

opposed any reconsideration. At the
same time democratic leaders were

eral tons crashed down on
the spot where he had been
standing.
