BILL INCREASING PAY OF FEDERAL
WITNESSES AND JURORS PUT into
EFFECT-BURTNESS CONGRATULATED

Washington, d. G.. May 3l.---Con-
gresham o. b. Burtness Of Grand
Forks is receiving communications
from district judges and United
States district attorneys throughout
the country thanking and congratu
latlng him on his success in getting
legi station through congress and sign
ed by the president liberalizing the
fees allowed jurors and witnesses
in federal courts.
For many years the situation with
reference to these two classes. and
with reference to witness
cs. has been almost disTraccful and
has seriously intcrfercd with the
proper administration Of justice,
Witnesses have received only $50 per
day and u travel allowance of five
cents per mile and have not even
been paid for the time consumed in
going to and returning from court
At no places in the country where
federal court has been held could
witness obtain lodging and meals
for the amount allowed Witnesses
taken across the country have recciv-
cd travel allowance not quite suffi-
cicnt to pay for their railroad ticket
and Pullman berth and have therefore
not only lost their time. but have
been compelled to pay for their meals
out of their own pockets. The result
has been that many witnesses have
become cmbittcrcd at the treatment
given them by this government, and
prosecuting officials feel that such
treatment has often cons ciOusly or
unconsciously colorcd the testimony
given in court.

YEGGS F0ILED
INATTEMPT TO
LOOT A VAULT
Employc, Working on HOli-
day, Finds Hole in Floor
!. Leading to Tunnel

Chicago, May. 31-(AP)--Tun-
neling for so feet beneath an alley
to the vault of a suburban bank,
bandits found their plans frustrat-
ed because an employee went to work
on holiday. Opening the vault
Sunday morning, Anton l.. For
mack, assistant cashier, found a
hole in the floor Of the stronghold
in which $4,000 in cash, securities
and jewels were stored.
Police, dclving~into the excava-
ton, pursued their way through
a narrow tunnel into an adjacent
garage. On the garage floor were
found money bags containing
$6,83O, all but nine dollars of the
loot missing from the vault.
The thieves had planned the
robbery deliberately and the owner
of the garage said they had leased
the structure two months ago.
Mysterious truck loads leaving the
garage were explained by the police
as sacked dirt removed from the
tunnel. The bank at which the
plot was directed was the Marshall
Sqhare State Bank on the north
west side.
Officers believed elimination of
the plot had been fixed for today,
a holiday, and that only the un-
expected coming to the bank of
Formacek to post some checks pre-
vented complete loot Of the vault.
+. The tunnel was timbered and
electrically lighted, with pads to
keep out the damp.

Rev. A. A. Holmes, who has been
pastor of the First Boptist church
in Bismarck for the last year, died
very suddenly Saturday evening at
the Mounds Park Sanitarium in
st. Paul, MINI. A heart attack is
believed to have been the direct
cause Of death.
Rev. Holmes first suffered a
breakdown, caused by heart trouble.
about year ago, just at the con-
clusion of the daily vacation Bible
school, but soon recovered and
seemed to be doing nicely until
about two months ago when he
was again taken with sudden
heart attack and was confined to
the Bismarck hospital for several
weeks.
About three weeks ago he was
taken to the Mounds Park sani-
tarium to recupcrate and to receive
treatment for his heart. 1t was
believed that few weeks rest
would be great benefit to his
health. Last week he seemed to
be very much better and wanted to
return to Bismarck to resume his
work but his physicians persuaded
him to remain at the sanitarium
for two or three weeks of rest and
treatment, after which he expected
to resume his pastorate here. He
had suffered from heart trouble
for years.

nomination.
Although the time for filing petit
tons Of cardidacy expired at mid
night Saturday, election officials to-
day discovered y new section which
apparently would give the Democrats
until June 5 to complete their fill
ing.
The Law
The section in question says in
part: Application to have name
placed on the primary election bal
lots for nomination may be made by
five qualified electors for any office
by presenting the petition required
to the proper official.
When such petition is received
by the proper official he shall place
the name on the primary election
ballot as candidate Of the party
named in said petition; provided,
that such affidavit and petition shall
not be filed without the written con-
sent of such person to be nominated
endorsed thereon and provided furth-
err that when the time has expired at
which petition may be filed and 4
vacancy exists in the primary cleo
tionballot Of any political party by
reason Of no petition having been fill
ed for such nomination, then and in
that case the same may be filed by
affidavit .... and such affidavit
and petition must be filed with the
proper officers at lePst % days be-
fore the primary election"
Must Have Enough Names
This rule was invoked in filing Il
petition for Charley &. Johnson,
Grand Forks, Farmer-Labor eandi-
date for nomination as secretary of
state. His petition, however, was not
accompanied by written consent. The
defect had not been repaired this
morning.
Secretary Byrnc said that no mat
ter if the Democrats filed by petition
of five electors as indicated, extend
ing the deadlinc to June 5, it would
not relieve them Of the necessity of
having the required number of names
on their petitions. He indicated that
he will ask the attorney general for
an opinion on this phase of the sit
uation.
