BARS LAWYER.
FROM COURTS
Supreme Court Suspends Man
For One Year

Attorney J. f. Bryans Of Mohall
was suspended for period of one
year from the practice of law before
any court in the state in a decision
handed down today by the state su-
preme court The decision Of the
court stated that the evidence pre-
sented by the State Bar association
does not show Attorney Bryans so
unfit and untrustw orthy as to re-
quire a Judgment Of disbarment, and
that because of his heretofore hon
orable record in Renville county,
where he has served several terms
as states attorney, he is given the
benefit of light penalty.
1t was charged in the disbarment
proceedings that Attorney Bryans
verified complaint, alleging that a
certain bank was the assignee of the
proceeds of an insurance policy be
filed brief in the county court in
support of such contention, when he
knew as matter of fact that the
bank had no interest in the policy.
1t was further charged that At
torney Bryans settled lawsuit for
$4,000 and represented to his client
that the settlement was for $4,000
and on that basis settled with his
client for 1000, being one-helf Of
6e sum alleged to have been re-
covered.

Final action that makes certain
the penitentiary road between the
Bismarck city limits to point on
the National Parks Highway east of
the penitentiary will be paved with
use Of convict labor was taken at a
joint meeting of representatives of
the Burleigh county commissioners,
Board of Administration and State
Highway commission late yesterday
afternoon.
Opposition developed to the use of
concrete and the employment of con-
vict labor at conference held yes
terday morning. The opposition was
on the part Of three members of the
Burleigh county board. The county
commissioners asked that the mat
ter be deferred until in the after
noon and the morning meeting was
adjourned. The Burleigh county
beard held meeting in local ho-
tel to discuss\the project and then
met with the two state boards again
in the afternoon.
The afternoon meeting was rushed
through in a hurry. A motion that
the three boards act as committee
of the whole was carried. A motion
was then made that the paving pro-
ject be left to the State Highway
Commission. This motion was car
ried with two dissenting votes.
Although nothing was said at the
afternoon meeting about the style
of pavement to be used nor about
employing convict labor, the action
taken by the three boards makes
certain that the highway will be paw
ed with concrete and that the COM
mon labor on the road will be done
by convicts. The State Highway
Commission had already come out in
favor of concrete for the road and
for prison labor. The Highway Com
mission has the backing of the Board
of Administration in it's stand.
A conservative estimate is that the
taxpayers will be saved $4,000 on
the project under the plan of the
Highway Commission.
It is expected that work on the
road will be started within a few
weeks.

BRINGING PET COW
FROM DUNN CENTER TO BISMARCK

Dunn Centre, May 26.-"Pet" is
going to leave Dunn Center. She is
going to Bismarck to resume her
duties as caterer to the family of the
state tax commissioner.
She is not anxious to go. Bismarck
may be the capital Of great state
and pretty city and all that, but
great big brick buildings, streets paw
ed with asphalt and small backyard
spaces is not exactly what "Pet" is
used to-. But she is loyal to the
Thoresen family and she will 60.
"Pet" is--well she is pet. Other
wise she is red cow with white
face, her ancestors coming to these
United States from Heresfordshire
in England, about the time the pill
grim fathers landed at Plymouth
Rock. For five years she has fur
nished milk and cream to the Thore-
sen family Seven rosy-cheeked
youngsters bear witness that she has
done her work we'll.
II the truth must be told, it must
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1925-05-26

be admitted that there have been
times when "Pet" fell short in de-
livery, thereby violating one Of the
first principles Of American business
teachings; because, in spite of. the
steady and constant demand, the milk
supply has varied considerably.
Family demands, daughters mostly,
have interfered with "Pet's" manu-
featuring activity.
But on the average she has been
a good caterer. Twelve quarts a
day is considered a low output by
the tax commissioner and his wife.
When it is fifteen they are pleased;
when it is eighteen, as sometimes
happens when the pasture is excep-
tionally green, they are jubilant.
So "Pet" has been a good COW and
good pet. Therefore she is going
to Bismarck to help keep the tax
commissioners family healthy.
"Pet's" daughter is going to stay
in Dunn county to take up her
mothers vocation.

New York, May 26.-While tenta-

being discussed, experienced explor-
ers are still confident of the ability
Of Capt. Amundsen and his five COM
panions to return safely from the
North Pole.
Amundsen, his American financial

pilots left Kings Bay, Spitsbergen.

The planes are not equipped with
wireless apparatus and there is no
possibility of communication with
the outside world.
Nobody in Norway is anxious re.
garding Capt. Amundsen," DR.. Frdt-
jof Nansen, famous arctic explorer
is quoted by a Copenhagen news dis
patch as declaring. "He is capable
Of handling himself under difficulties
of any kind"
Amundsen never thought seriously
of returning from the pole by air
plane in the opinion of G. /. B. Ell
lis, a member Of the Oxford univer-
sity expedition of last year. This
authority believes the party has
reached the pole, abandoned the two
airplanes and is now on its way
back on foot:
Col. Coph, Danish explorer, says
that six or eight days must elapse
before hearing from the expedition,
allowing several days to verify their
arrival at the pole before attempting
to return.
The latest dispatch from the north
says the arctic regions are threaten
ed by storms.

Exploration has been the life work
of Captain Roald Amundsen-descen
dant of old Morse ancestry with the
urge for discovery surging through
his veins.
Amundsen was born July 16. 1872,
at Borje, Norway, son Of ship own
er and operator. The son, though,
, chose to become a physician.
Two years at medical college re-
suited in his succumbing to the call
of the sea. He became lieutenant
in the Norwegian navy. Becoming
a specialist in navigation Of north
and south polar seas, Amundsen un-
leonsciously fitted himself for his
greater work.
The Belgian expedition to the ant
arctic in 1897-99 gave Amundsen his
first polar work. He obtained leave
from the navy, was first officer of
the Balgica.
This experience won Amundsen
command of the exploration schoon-
er Gjoa, studying deep water condi-
tions around Spitzbergen and Green
land in 1901.
Sailing on the Gjoa in 1908
Amundsen relocated the north mag
netic pole and was first to definitely
prove it in almost constant motion.
On the same trip, the Gjoa achieved
world fame by negotiating the north
west passage.
The drift over the north pole was
first conceived by him in 1906.
Amundsen worked zealously but
with poor success to finance this
journey. Heavily in debt, and with
poor equipment, the explorers party
was just ready to sail when news
came Of the north pole discovery.
Then Amundsen acted in his char
acteristic manner. He sailed in 1910,
ostensibly for the north pole BASIN
and from Madeira, sent back word
that the Fran was headed for the
south pole. Amundsen took chance
on winning the race, feeling that
the receipts from subsequent lectures
would repay his hackers and finance
his north pole drift.
The Fran reached the Bay Of
Whales in January, 1911. With
great rapidity Amundsen pushed for
ward until with four companions he
reached the south pole Dec. 16, 1911
"a month and two days ahead Of the
ill-fated Scott expedition.
Amundsen's financial reward from
| L. ~ ~
unknown no longer, and the Norwe-
gian government levied a special
tax to finance his longed-for trip,
the drift over the north pole basin.
All nations assisted Amundsen's
scientists in their preparations.
Early in 1918, Amundsen's party
on the 300-ton schooner Maud sailed
from Christiania, the crew of nine
prepared to have their vessel freeze
in the ice and drift over the north
pole, taking from five to seven years.
time. The crew meantime was to
make scientific observations.
Unfavorable ice conditions forced
the Maud south after it had drifted
over the Siberian arctic. With its
propeller smashed. the schooner was
rescued by the United States reve-
nue. cutter Bear, taken to Seattle in
1921, and after repairs there, re-
sumed the trip in n-June, 1922, freez-
ing in the ice north of Alaska.
