STATE PRINTING LAW
IS CONSTITUTIONAL

Bismarck-The state printing com
mission law which provides for the
designation of one official paper in
each county instead of three was de-
clared constitutional by the state su-
preme court. The decision was re
versal of the one rendered by Judge
Crawford several months ago. In the
decision Of the case the amendment
added to the constitution at the 1913
general election, providing that no law
shall be declared unconstitutional ex-
cept by vote of four of the five su-
preme court judges came into action
for the first time since it's enactment.
Justices Birdsell and Christianson who
did not agree as to the validity of the
law voted for the reversal Of the
Crawford decision since Justices Grace
and Robinson had held the law con-
stitutional. ~as "-a's: @@. ",
All four judges concurred in the
opinion that the law does not violate
the fourteenth amendment to the fed
eral constitution prohibiting the taking
of private property without due pro-
cess of law. The question of the con-
stitutionality of the measure then
rested on alleged illegal technicalities
declared to have crept in. during the
process of enacting the law. The
opinions of Justices Robinson and
Grace that the measure was valid pre-
vailed. a

that there had been friction between
Mr.. Waters and Mr.. Cathro but the
latter in letter to the papers denied
that there had ever been anything
but harmony. The new manager paid
a glowing tribute to Mr.. Waters for
his services to the bank and his CO.
operation.

STAIR ELECTED WARDEN

Hon. L. L. Stair of Newburg was
elected Warden of the State Peniten-
tiary on Tuesday afternoon Of this
week. Thos. Hennessy who was elected
to this position some time ago declined
owing to local conditions politically
The. election of Mr.. Stair is very
wise one cf the part of the Board of
Administration.
Mr.. Stair is well qualified in every
respect for this position. The business
side of the Penitentiary will be in
good capable hands and Mr.. Stair
also has a real vision when it comes
to handling men and we know the
inmates will be dealt with firmly but
kindly.
Mr.. Stair is one of three or four
who has sacrificed more for the N.
T. L. tina nanyone else in the State of
North Dakota and we are glad that
he has been awarded this good po-
sition. The State Administration will
also have a very able advisor close
at hand and taken all in all we be-
lieve it.. mas been the wisest selection
that could have been made.
'.hc Ct,rsnt will feel the loss of
Mr.. Stair from our County but we
know that the organization is that
much the gamer.

Washington Congressman Sin
clair introduced bill authorizing the
war finance corporation to lend $10,-
100000 to farmers in the drouth-
stricken districts of the west so that
they may be able to buy seeds for this
year. sr ~ .~~
Representative Baer of the first dis
trict introduced a bill to prevent
gambling in the necessaries of life on
the stock and grain exchanges of the
nation. Not daunted by the attacks
Of his cartoons. which were made in
the House Of Representatives Mr..
Baer continues to track the enemies
Of the people to their lair-Wall
Street.
Congressman Baer made the follow
ing statement. about his bill-"I am
reliably informed, if this bill becomes
a law, it will be welcomed by legiti-
mate business interests. It will elm
mate spectators who have no right,
title or legitimate existance in our
system. The pinch of want is even now
felt by millions of our people who go
to bed every night without sufficient
food, not because Of the scarcity of
things to support life IN comfort, but
because Of extortionate prices forced
upon US many times by gamblers.
"Recent disclosures of a federal
grand jury have shown that these
gamblers have obtained the public's
credit and used itstfor private gain
in their schemes to. plumber the con-
sumers. Regulation ie not an effective
method Of stopping the evil; elinnin-
alton is the only practical remedy.
There was no room for them now.
''Tc allow spectators who have no
legal title to goods to purchase fu-
lures and fictitious stocks in times
of rising economic levels and then
manipulate the market in order to
make illegitimate profits is vicious
crime. They are clogging the free
channels of trade and cause an un-
necessary increase in the high cost Of
living"

CARL ADMITS STATE
.. NEVER WAS BROKE


the doings of Auditor Carl Kositzky
The gentleman who was pleased to
announce last fall that the state was
broke and that he was unable to pay
the employees of the state-and that
in the face of the fact that there was
plenty of money in the Golfers to
meet all the pay rolls-this same fl
nancier now tells the industrial COM
mission that there was plenty of mon
ey and he begs them to withdraw GER
tain sums that they borrowed from
the Bank of North Dakota to relieve
the departments embarrassed by Ko-
sitzky's tactics.
Out of spite the Auditor last fall
transferred $175,OO0 from the general
fund provided to pay the running ex-
penses of the various branches of the
state administration to series of
special funds which he concocted for
the occasion. He then proclaimed to
the world that the state was "broke"
and that it was utterly impossible to
issue checks to pay the salaries of the
employees of the state. Much hardship
was wrought on the. small-salaried
employees. To alleviate their distress
the industrial commission directed the
state bank to transfer state funds on
deposit to the account of IL state de-
partments and institutions enbarrass-
ed by Kositzky.
Even after $26,938 had been trans
ferred Kositzky refused to pay salar-
les. He pretended to be in doubt as
to the legality of the transfer and in
need of leisure to look into it. Then
the tax money began to pour in and
the auditor could find no more ex-
cuses for not paying salaries. Now,
six months later Kositzky compla-
Gently announces that he @looked into"
the legality of funds and is satisfied
that it was @. K. He requests the in
dustrial commission to return the
money to the Bank Of North Dakota
SO that the departments affected will
not have to pay interest on the loans.
Most amazing Of all is the state
ment of Kositzky to the commission
that there was plenty of money on
hand to pay the salaries last fall and
that it was not really necessary to
transfer the money. The simple soul
has apparently forgotten that he filled
the kent press with stories to the eff
feet that the state was "broke." Nor
does he realize what gross unworthi-
ress Of his office is revealed in his in
difference to the waste of paying six
months interest on money that did the
departments no good.
