from perfectly healthy oysters that
have grown In favorable surroundings.
but from those which have had to

When native divers in the pearl fish

For many years natives IN Southern

Legislature Organized
TO Complete Program
iNen.r Partisan League Controls Both
Bsasehss Of the Legislaturs aud
win Enact its Program

The 18th North Dakota legisla.
tive assembly convened Tuesday
last week at Bismarck, when both
houses completed organizations,
md adjourned until Wednesday,
when Governor Frazier appeared
before the joint session Of the two
law msking bodies, and delivered
his second inaugural address.
L. L. Stair Of Bottineau, was ell
ected speaker Of the house, and G..
A. Totten, Jr., Of Fargo, chief
clerk. Lieut.. Governor Wood is
the presiding officer Of the senate
and W. j. Prater Of Burleigh coun.
ty, secretary.
The Non-P Partisan League has a
majority in the house of II to SO,
and about the same ratio in the
senate. In his address to the leg
islature Governor Frazier urged the
enactment of the program on which
the League majority was elected.
In order to carry out this pro-
gram it is necessary for the legisla.
lature to approve the ten constitu-
tional amendments voted on last
fall and declared adopted by the
state canva2sing board.
At the session Monday four Of
the amendments were delared passed
by the house and sent to the senate
for final action.
In the meantime an action has
been brought in supreme court for
q review Of the action of the can.
wasting board, and Tuesday the
smen,beEss Of same appeared in cour,
but the action Of the court is not
known at this writing.
The most important bill intro.
duced in the legislature 40 far is one
creating the Industrial Commission
Of North Dakota, empowered to op.
crate and manage all state-owned
utilities.
Another important bill is one es.
tablishing the Bank of North Oak.
ota with a capital Of 81, 600. 600.
A more complete report Of the
proceedings Of the legislature will
be found on one Of the inside pages
Of this issue.

We were pulled off the Argonne

We again went over for the third
time on the morning of October 81

We placed machine guns on the

Accept Shield. Bridge
County Commissioners Inspscssd aa8
Accepted New Bridge over Can.
nonball River at Shislds "a

Commissioners Stiles and Leach
who inspected the new bridge over
the Cannonball river st Shields last
Thursday report that the bridge
was accepted at the joint meeting
of the commissioners Of Sioux aud
Grant counties. The bridge 10 q
very substantial one and will be a
great convenience to people on 10th
sides Of the Cannonball river. The
approach to the bridge on the Sioux
county side is not finished, but sui-
ficient fill has been made to make
the bringe passable.
The completion Of the bridge a
few years earlier would have meant
that the Yellowstone Trail would
have gone through Fort Yates and
Shields instead Of the present route
through Mobridge. The trail was
first blazed along this route but
abandoned on account Of there be-
ing no bridge over the Cannonball
river.
The old Black Hills Trail from
Mandan to the Black Hills which is
now being laid out should follow
the Missouri river to Fort Yates,
and from there 90 west and cross
the Cannonball river at Shields and
then connect with the road west
from there.
This route would touch such his
toric spots as Old Fort Lincoln,
Fort Rice, Cannonball and Fort
Yates.
