tory Bonds makes that much available
for taking up municipal and school

manent common school fund, Treas
urer Steen suggested that they be sold

pom bonds in return for registered

HAIL WARRANT
SALE IS 0.K'D
BY HIGH COURT
Gives State Administration Au.
thOrity to Proceed With Its
Sale Contract
INJUNCTION is DENIEI
Purchase of Warrants is Ex.
pected to Begin Immediate.
ly Under Agreement

Application for writ Of injunction
to halt the proposed deal for the sale
of 1921 hail warrants to Minneapolis
financial houses was denied by the su-
preme court late this afternoon.
There is no obstacle to completion
Of the deal and the administration
expects that purchase of 1921 hail
warrants by the financial houses will
start Immediately.
The case, brought by Otto Bauer. a
taxpayer of Morton county, raised
numerous questions, attacking the
validity of the proposed contract by
which the 1921 hail warrants would
be sold. Members of the Industrial
Commission, Commissioner of Insur-
ance, manager of the State Hail In
surance Department and state treas
urer were defendants.
Under the proposed deal the finan-
cial houses will purchase warrants
in February at 80 per cent of face
value increasing the offer One-half
per cent each month until par value
is reached, and will take notes of the
Industrial Commission for the war
rants, which will be neld in trust by
the state treasurer.
In constituting the section Of the hail
law providing the Commissioner OF
Insurance and Industrial Commission
may negotiate a loan to enable pay
ment of hail warrant in cash Judge
Christianson writing the opinion, held
that the power conferred and duty
imposed upon the officers named car
ries by implication the power to use
such proper and lawful means as in
their judgment are necessary to ac'
complish the intended purpose"
Answering the contention that there
is NO authority to contract that the
warrants shall be deposited as collat-
eral security with the state treasurer
Judge Christianson held that the law
giving authority to negotiate a loan
gave authority to Issue instruments
evidencing the Indebtedness incur
red" .....
The insurance commissioner is held
to have full authority to, certify that
the warrants are valid obligations OF
the department, waving defenses.

GUNNER Murder Case Today
Settles to Debate Between
Experts on Signature
ADJOURN OVER MONDAY
Court to Resume on Tuesday,
Following Observance of
Monday, Legal Holiday

Valley City, Feb. 11.-One more
session in the William GUNNER mur-
der case was given over to expert
handwriting testimony when the state
handwriting expert, R. G. Cation, was
called for rebuttal. Counsel had
agreed to permit Cation to testify in
rebuttal before the defense conclud-
ed its case the additional defense
witnesses to be called this afternoon
and when court reconvenes next Tues
day.
Mr.. Cation in his testimony this
morning reiterated his previous opin-
ion that Andy Brown, Gummer's room
mate, wrote the name James Farrell
that appeared on the register of the
Prescot hotel the night of the mur-
der. The safe maintains that the
name Farrell was placed on the reg
lister by Brown in collusion with Cum
mer to inject an element Of mystery
when the murder should be discOv-
cred. No man by the name Of Farrell
has ever been accounted for.
H. B. Howard, a member of the po-
lice force at Fargo, testified today
that at a. m. he saw man come
out of the front door Of the Prescott
hotel, walk down the street a short
distance and seat himself on bench
nearby. Mr.. Howard could not de-
scribe the man and when asked on
cross-examination if he had ever seen

ANNEXATION
is UPHELD BY
JUDGE A. T.C0LE
Opinion Handed Down That
Cities and Villages Can
Annex Adjacent Territory
CONSENT NOT NECESSARY
Residents Near Hillsboro Will
Appeal Their Case To The
Supreme Court .

Fargo, N d. Feb. 11.-Judge A. T..
Cole upheld constitutionality of the
state law which allows an incorpor
ated city or village to annex adjacent
territory without consent of those liv-
ing in the territory, in a decision in
district court here, made public to-
day. The case was brought by prop
erty owners whose lanl mad been an
nexed by Hillsboro. The, decision
holds that action Of the city in an
nexing the land was proper.
The property owners have announc.
ed intention Of Immediately appeal
ing the case to the state supreme
court.
Hillsboro is justified in taxing the
annexed territory, says the Judge in
discussing this phase of the matter,
because of the advantages which the
territory receives from its nearness
to the city. To permit it to remain
without the town would be letting its
residents enjoy it's benefits without
paying proportionate tax, he says.
In summing up reasons for his de-
cision Judge Cole says
I'm the case at bar the territory
annexed created additional responsi-
bilities for the city of Hillsboro. 1t
brought to its borders an additional
population in close community. 1t
necessarily made an additional bur
den for the requirement Of police and
other provisions. 1t added somewhat
to the fire risks of those included
within the municipality and other
matters might be mentioned. So long
as the territory remained unannexed
it created liability and an expense
to the city of Hillsboro for which the
inhabitants of such annexed territory
paid nothing. 1t was to cure this sit
uation that this territory was an
nexed."

mouth" said nurse today. IAN un-
clean mouth with decaying teeth and
abscesses, is one of the gravest pos
sible dangers to the child. The mouth
is the vestibule of the body. 1t is
more important that it be clean than
the face be clean. The condition OF
the mouth is becoming more and
more the barometer of health. The
individual with clean sound teeth and
healthy gums is seldom below par
physically. 1t has proven to be fact
that when existing defects are cor

brush has been taught and enforced

It will be the effort of the schoo
