Dry LasD Immune
From Further Attack.

Special Despatch to THE NEW York HEnALp.
New York Her~ld BuYeau.
Washington. ID. c.. May 10.
The United States Supreme Court to-
day made the prohibition amendment to
the Constitution immune from future
legal attacks
BY unanimous decision II declared that
section 8 of the amendment, requiring
that It must be ratified within seven
years after its submission by Congress
does not invalidate 1t, as was set forth
by attorneys for the liquor interests.
The section originally was proposed by
President Harding while Senator and
caused a sharp debate In the Senate as
to It's constitutionality.
The entire amendment now has been
specifically approved by the court. Sec
tions | and were held valid last June
but no mention of section was made
raised. The vets grabbed at this straw.
but to-day's decision completely banishes
their hopes.
The court also set at rest all doubts
on when the amendment and that part
OF the volstead law enforcing It became
effective. II emphaticaliy named Janu-
ary 1S, 1920, as the date. by taking
judicial notice Of reports of State Legis-
latures showing the thirty-sixth ratiffca-
tion was obtained on that date. It had
been contended that since the Secretary
OF State did not proclaim ratification un-
Ill January 20. 1919. the amendme mt
could not become effective until one
year after that date.
Test Case By pr.yman.
In the case at bar J. J. Dillon. a
San Francisco drayman. was arrested
for transporting a cask OF liquor with
out permit on January II, 1920. He
said the law was not In effect on that
day. Dillon sought arrest in order to
test the law. and It was with difficulty
he found an officer to arrest him.
The Governments position was de-
Tended In the case by Mrs. Annette Alb
bot Adams. Special Assistant Attorney
devanter said 1T will be seen that the
Constitution says nothing about the time
within which ratifications may be had
neither that II shall be unlimited nor
that It shall be fixed by Congress.
The proposal for the Eighteenth
Amendment Is the first In which a
definite period for ratification was
fixed. Tneretcforc tWcnty-one amend
ments had been proposed by Congress
and seventeen OF these had been rati-
fied-somc within a single year and all
within four years.
IAN examination OF Article v. dis
closes that II In intended to invest Con-
rress with wide range OF power In
proposing amendments. We do not find
anything In the article which suggests
an amendment once proposed to be open
to ratification for all time or that
ratification In some of the States may
be separated from that In others by
many years and still be effective. We
do find that which strongly suggests to
the contrary.

them They just simply voted for Kohler
in expectation that he would turn out to
be the best mayor they ever had.
THEY ARE JUST PLAIN THIEVES AND
COWARDS

If anybody should ask what We think
is the most crying social need of the times
in America we'd give him this answer:
TAKE THE ROMANCE OUT OF
STEALING.
Most of us forget one thing. Every
real youngster growing into mans inches
carries in his bones more or less of the
spirit of recklessness, or of adventure and
daring 1t is the heritage of masculinty,
and when directed Alright by education or
by natural good brains in the boy himself,
it is a fine thing. But when misdirected,
the lad goes bad in one way of another.
America doesn't handle thievng as it
should be handled. We make too much of
q romance out Of it-anyway, something
that looks like romance to the immature
or degenerate brain of the thief. The
trial in crowded court room, the stories
in the papers of desperate deeds, the print
ing of his picture, are glorification to the
young fool who has been caught,
We would prohibit by law the print
ing of a thief's name. Give him number
as soon as he is arrested.
We would make it impossible for his
picture to appear outside of "rogues'
gallery"
We would have the trial occur in a
barred court room.
And we would quit the use of 'ro-
mantle" words, such as bandit, gunman
and the like.
Let's call stealing, STEALING, and
a thief THIEF.
And as for gunmen, they are merely
common murderers Also cowardly ours.
because, in holdup, they shoot unarmed
defenseless people.

rEDDY's BEST CHIEF" GOES HIGHER

Since election day there has been
disposition in other big cities to sneer at
Clevcland-the fifth city in size-for
electiny a former chief of police to the ex-
alted place of mayor
But it is not eakishness-THERE'S
A REASON
Raek some fifteen or sixteen years ago,
Theodore Roosevelt, then President rather
shocked the conceited metropolitan cities
with this declaration THE City of Cleve-
land has the best chief of police in the
United States" And Theodore knew. Be
sides having been police commissioner of
New York. he was himself-in effect
one of the best policemen the country ever
had.
All right. A few years ago. this best
chief of police was framed" off the force
by unscrupuous politicians. AS an answer
the people of Cleveland elected him coun-
ty commissioner twice by enormous ma
jorities Whereupon. he became THE
BEST COUNTY COMMISSIONER Cuya-
hoga county ever had.
That's the record of Ex-chief of Police
Fred Kohler, the newly elected mayor Of
Cleveland.
1t is not freakishness for the people OF
a big city to elect a man to manage their
affairs who has twice made good for

THE NORTH DAKOTA ELECTION

Upon the first reports of the results
of the recent election in North Dakota,
we assumed that the recall of the three
Non-partisan state officials-governor. at
torney general, and commissioner OF agri-
culture and labor-carried with 1t the re-
call of the Non-Partisan measures or poll
cies. This is not true. The leaders of the
party, then in office, were recalled but
their policies were sustained by majority
vote. The majorities in both cases were,
unfortunately, small and are really not as
conclusive as the issues would seem to
warrant. The results are at least para
doxical.
There are some good things offered
in the Non-Partisan League program-or
else it would not have been able to enlist
the support of great number OF good
farmers at so much per-but unscruplous
leaders like Townley have well nigh

Fall from SilO Results
in Painful Injuries
John A. Bisel Meets With Accident
Last Tuesday AfternOon-BrOk-
en- Fall Saves Life.

A fall of Is feet from the top of a
silo to the pit beneath the structure
was the experience of J. A. Bisel
Tuesday afternoon.
The fall resulted in broken right
arm and severely bruised side. That
Mr.. Bisel was not killed was probably
due to the fact that in falling he hit
upon a staging, breaking the fall,
and throwing him into pool of mud
and water.
The accident occurred while the
gentleman was experimenting the
construction of silo on the farm of
Andrew Sritzler, near Elrosa. Mr..
Bisel was located on the third stag
ing at the top of the slid, when he
fell. In making his descent he came
in contact with the second staging
DETECTING his fall and landing him in
a pool of mud and water in the pit of
the fall. This DETECTION very likely
saved his life. He escaped with a
broken wrist and a badly bruised
right side.

Sank Centre Schools
Closed Last Thursday
Most Successful Year Completed
There will be New Faces in the
Next Teaching Corps

The school year of 1920-21 closed
in Sank Centre last Thursday night
with the graduation of the Class of
1921.
Graduation exercises were held in
the Junior high school auditorium in
the presence of one of the largest ag-
grations which has ever witnessed a
similar event in the city.
The class which stepped out from
the school to take up life's labors.
consisted of 20 students, and was one
OF the largest classes to graduate in
recent years.
There will be a number of new
faces in the teaching corps of the
Sank Centre schols when they re-op-
en- in the fall, many of the teachers
of both the Senior and Junior high
schools having left to accept employ
ment elsewhere, while some have
completed their teaching career to
tax up the responsibility of the home.
John M. Quinlivan, principal in the
Senior high school, has left Sank
Centre and will devote his time to the
study of law. Miss Emma Chelgren,
principal of the Junior high school,
will return to the Sank Centre schools
next year.
Supt. John C. West stated this
week that he had not completed his
new teaching corps, but that he had
a number of applimcations under adj
visement. He has not yet secured a
successor to Mr.. Quinlivan.
w. B. Morgan, athletic coach and
Manual Training instructor, will not
leave Sank Centre during the sum-
mer months. He has secured con-
tract to do work about the school
which will keep him on the job all
summer. E. M. Gillig, agricultural
teacher, and Miss Frances Ladner,
school nurse, will remain with the
Sank Centre schools.

LAKE SHORE LOTS
find READY SALE
STOCkHOLDERS BUY PRACTIC.
ALLY ALL OF LOTS OFFERED
BY COUNTRY CLUB
MANY new SUMNER HOMES
WORK WILL START NEXT YEAR
TOURIST PARK BECOMING
VERY POPULAR

One hundred and sixteen huskies
answered the call for volunteers on
Tuesday afternoon to carry on the
work started the week before in
clearing up the tract of land recent
ly acquired by the Sank Centre
Country Club on the north side of
the river, in the city limits.
Nearly as great a change was
wrought Tuesday afternoon as at the
"bee" the week before. The shore
line of Sank Lake is rapidly coming
into it's own as the removal of UNDER
brush makes the sight pleasing to
the eye. The one mile and quarter
drive along the lake shore and about
the Country Club grounds and tour
list park, will be one of the interest
ing sights to show to the visitor. =.
Although opened to the public less
than week the Tourist Park is be-
coming known and several cars are
parked there each night, with the
number on the increase. Two cement
ovens were installed Tuesday after
noon for the benefit of travellers and
home picnickers.
The appraisers to price the lots
plated reported Monday evening
and it was decided to put the lots on
sale Wednesday morning at o'clock
at the office of Secretary Conklin.
The stockholders of the club were
given first opportunity to purchase.
Thirty-four lots have been plated on
the lake front, and when the sale
started number were on hand. There
were several desiring the same lot,
so the officers decided to award the
lots for which there We're contenders,
by lot. Up to this Thursday noon SO
of the "a plated lots on the lake
have been sold, and three of the IL
lots on north Main street have found
purchasers. .....
1t is not probable that there will
be many summer homes erected this
year, but in early spring, activities
will commence. Any purchaser erect
ing cottage within two year per-
iod will be given discount of rs
per cent from the purchase price. The
lake shore lots sold for from $50 to
5000 each. The lots on north Main
street, are appraised at from $3.50 to
$500 each. This new addition to the
city makes available a number Of
choice residence lots which are badly
needed. Others may be plated later
if there is demand for them
The value of the Sank Centre
Country Club and Tourist Park to
Sank Centre and this community
cannot be estimated in dollars.
