Great Falls.-Judge George NJ. Bour-

the issue of the Montana Develop
ment association, against the Montana
trade commission. being the case of A.
NJ. Hotter company for an injunction
against enforcement of the order COM
polling merchants to display the cost

1t was not necessary to bring in other
judges to sit with him, as had been
the contention Of the trade commits
sion, and, having assumed Jurisdiction,
overruled the motion Of the trade COM
mission to dismiss. He then noted an
exception for the commission, granted
five days for filing briefs on the ques-
ton of Jurisdiction. and five days to
answer, and gave the plaintiff reason
able time thereafter to reply. Mean

is possibility that school districts in
those counties may not be able to

latin. Granite. McCone, Garfield,

An amendment to the school laws
passed by the Eleventh session pro-
vides that ''all school districts failing
to make annual census reports shall
forfeit their apportionment of any
school moneys"
The statutes provide for taking a
school census annuall;; in every dis
trict between the first day Of Septem-
Der and the first day Of October. 1t
is made compulsory upon the clerk
of each district to report such census
to the county superintendent of
schools within Is days after its COM
pletion and to also furnish copy of
the census to the board Of school
trustees.
The county superintendent keeps a
copy on file and sends a copy to the
state labor commissioner.
Inquiry in Lewis and Clark county
reveals the fact that the return from
the county is being delayed through
failure Of one district, where a new
clerk has recently been named, to re-
port. and the state report is being held
up waiting on that one district. 1t is
presumed that in the other II counties
failure of some one or more clerks to
report is responsible for the delay.
This is believed to be the case be-
cause the law provides that in case
any district clerk shall fail to take
the census provided for at a proper
time, and If through such neglect the
district shall fail to receive its ap.
portionment of school moneys. said
school clerk shall be individually liza
BILE to the district for the full amount
so lost, which may be recovered in a
suit brought by any citizen of such

NO BIDS YET RECEIVED

to be opened at the regular weekly
meeting of the city council tomorrow

tween today and closing time for re-
ceiving bids. Five bids for tho sale to
THE city of motorcycle have been
received.
The reason for the lack of street im-
provement bids lies in the bond mar
ket situation, City Recorder Thomas
Fitz Gerald believes. At the present
time the paving companies are unable
to dispose of bonds and the city cam
not pay cash. The city charter will
not allow bonds to draw more than s
per cent interest nor to be sold at less
than par. For this reason, 1t is i
thought, paving companies. now carry
ing all the bonds they possibly can
handle, are not in the market for
more such securities. When credits
can again be extended, the disposal OIL
bonds is expected to be facilitated.
Bids for sewer work in the city,
