HIGH SCHOOL
TEST PAPERS
BEING GRADED
Work Will Take Until July
Students General knOwl.
edge Considered

While examiners for the state de-
partment Of public instruction are
piOwlng through l26 papers a day,
high school students who submitted
them as samples Of the education
CLEANED during the year must wait
until July to learn the results of
their labOrs, according to Miss Ber-
tina Palmer, superintendent of public
instruction.
Thousands of examination papers
are graded annually by the depart
ment but the work is SO heavy that
it will not be completed before the
middle of July or event later, Miss
Palmer said.
In the meantime some high school
seniors have received blank diplomas
at the graduation exercises, This is
done in many places, Miss Palmer
said, to give students whose sch0-
lastic standing is not assured an OPP
portunity to graduate with his class
in case he does succeed in passing
the final tests. In the event OF
failure the blank diploma means
nothing, whereas il the final report
shows that he met the requirements
he is given diploma properly filled
out.
Reasonable Allowance Made
Contrary to the idea of some chill
dren who have met disaster at their
hands, state examiners take no plea
sure in thinking" student and
every reasonable allowance is made
in grading the papers sen. here for
examination.
The general knowledge displayed
by the student is taken into account
in determining his grade, Miss Palm
er said. In the exact b.anrhes OF
learning, such as arithmetic and
algebra, accuracy is demanded.
In other departments Of learning
however, more latitude is allowed. II
student answers a question in such
way as to show that he has Il good
general grasp of the sub;cc. he is
given passing grade.
Everyone knows that it ism. pos
sible to remember every detail OF
some subjects and when student
shows that he knows the general sub
ject but has forgotten a particular
item we are not disposed to penalize
him too heavily" Miss Palmer said.

WESTERN HEROES LEAVE LEGENDS

Freight Rates on
Flax Straw Lower

Reduction in the freight rates on
threshcd flax straw and revision OF
the rate on flaxseed in carload lots
have been announced by North Da-
kota railroads, 1t was said today at
the state railroad board offices.
The new rate on flax straw will be
20 cents per 100 pounds less on ship
ments to the Twin Cities and Duluth
Superior. It is classed as an emer-
gency rate and will expire Septem:
Der 30 of this year unless changed
or cancelled before that date. The
new emergency rate was established
voluntarily by the railroads to en-
courage the movement Of Gex straw
to consuming markets.
Changes in the rates oW flaxseed
range from one half to two cents per
100 pounds, some rates being higher
and others lower. The new rates
apply on shipments to the Twin
Cities and head Of thc-lakes markets
and are predicated on the ruling al
| the Interstate Commerce Commission
that rates on flaxseed should be II
1-2 per cent HIGHER than freight
! rates on wheat. The change in each
case represents an adjustment based
on the wheat rate.

Deadwood, Where Wild Bill
Hickok Reigned as Sheriff,
and Where Deadwo0d Dick
and Calamity Jane Gained
Fame, Lies IS Miles North
Of State Game Lodge

Dcadwood, 8 D., June 1O.--<E-The
luried days when DeadwOod was the
wild west capital Of the world and
the Black Hills was its empire are
still fresh and dear to natives OF
western South Dakota among whom
President Coolidge spends his sum-
mer vacation.
Less than half q century ago, and
within the easy memory of many old
timers now living, Wild Bill Hickok
reigned as sheriff, Deadwood Dick
was scout, pony express rider and
dime novel hero, and Calamity Jane
was the boisterous sweetheart bf the
camp.
Today Wild Bill and Calamity jane
lie buried in a mountainside cemetery
near Deadwood; and DeadwOod Dick,
diverted to calmer pursuits since the
winning of the west, 10 rancher near
the city under his Christian name Of
Richard Clarke.
Few Landmark
Seventy,five miles north of the
state game lodge, the president
summer white house, Deadwood is
today quiet town of some 5000 in
habitants, with only few of the
OLD landmarks surviving TO mint the
wickedness Of its heyday.
But when gold was found in the
Black Hills in 1876, and when Dead
| wood was found to be the site of the
, richest ore lodes, it became overnight
the habitat of all the gamblers and
adventurers who followed the pros.
pectors into the Hills. Saloons
gambling dens and dance halls be-
came as numerous rs trading posts
! along the crooked streets at the bot.
, tom of Deadwood Gulch.
| Into this unrestrained Sodom came
| Wild Bill Hickok, native of northern
Illinois, cowboy and gunman, as
frontier sheriff. He taught the
gospel of the law and order to the
bad men, but not until he numbered
by the dozen the notches on his gun
and when he finally met death it was
at the hands Of a foe who, despairinl
lof beating him in fair fight, sho1
him in the back.

BY ARTHUR l.. GIl.LIOM
Attorney General of Indiana

The suggestion made in my
letter Of April % to the gov
ernor Of Indiana that a proviso
should be added to the Indiana
ohibition statute so as to make
possible the Lawful acquisition OF
reliable whisky for medicinal
purposes in eases of serious i'll
nesses when attending physi-
clans advise it's use as an indis-
pcnsable medicine, was made in
recognition Of the natural right
and duty that everyone has to
use every means to save the lives
Of dependents. The idea Of such
n proyiso is not new in view OF
its presence in the national pro-
hibition act, as we'll as it's pres
cnce in most state prohibition
statutes.
My suggestion is not to be con-
strued as an argument AGAINST
prohibition. 1t is rather to be
taken as being in the interest of
proh ibition. Prohibition laws,
to be successful, can only be
aimed at the abuse of liquors
for beverage purposes; when
they seek to prohibit the legiti-
mate use of whisky in violation
Of natural rights and duties and
in disregard of the professional
judgment of physicians. such
laws lose much of respect and
support that is needed to make
them successful in their proper
objects and purposes.
have always favored, and
now favor, honest prohibition.
And because | do favor it is the
reason why ! only SUGGEST that
carefully guarded proviso be
added to the existing statute 50
as to take out Of it's scope and
operation an object that cannot
be Justly made prohibitive. Such
proviso will strengthen. not
weaken, the prohibition statute
Of Indiana.
OF course the dominating rea-
SON for such a proviso is the nat
ural right and duty that every
one has to make use of all avail
able scientific agencies that
physicians may prescribe in an
effort to save the lives Of the
sick.

Last January he held that the legis-
lature had acted illegally in voting
to increase it's own pay and upheld
the state auditor in refusing to grant
the increase. The case went to the
supreme court, which in divided
opinion held that the pay increase
was legal. Cilliom, however, has
asked for rehearing.

Only once during the interview
with him did he smile. That was
when he exhibited roster of men,
bers of the American Bar Associa-
ton in their 1924 convention in
Europe, and pointed to the word

"They couldn't help themselves
he said. "They had the goods on a
fellow over there, where it made one
conspicuous to drink water, as
| did"
He is undismayed by the leagues
latest attack on him, and vows he
!, will stick by his guns.

nowhere with it's bull-dozing Of me-

tinue to be as good dry as know

Dakota.)

Grand Forks, N. D.. June l0.--tH
I'm the winter Of lG59-6O, a French
raider named Radisson, with his part
er, wintered among the Dakota
indians ut the western end Of Lake
uperior. From the accounts given
hem by the Indians there they were
ed to explore northeastward, and
ound themselves the next spring on
he shores Of James Bay, u branch
I Hudsons Bay.
Here they spent the summer, ex.
loring the shores Of the bay and
hiding out the fur resources of this
lrctic region. They were Impressed
v the value and number of the furs
hat could be purchased from the
indians there, and they spent the
ext ten years in trying to organize
trading company to exploit TINS
ew region. Their first attempt at
quebec failed and they tried next
n Boston.
Saw Louis XIV
Then we hear of them at the court
I Louis XIV in Paris, where they
sere we'll received and advised to
20 TO England. At the court of
Charles II they were able to interest
group of merchants sufficiently to
ave ship sent out to Hudson S
Say on a trial trip. The value of the
argo brought back convinced the
:nglish merchants that they might
afely invest in the fur trade of this
erritory. In 1910 they organized the
Iudson's Bay company, which still
xists, and is the oldest corporation
n America today.
The first post was built at the
oOuth of the Nelson river and was
hereafter known as York factory
he charter of the company gave
hem control Of all land drained BIZ
he waters flowing into Hudson,s
Say. This included the extensive
.rairie country now comprising the
canadian provinces of Alberta. Sask-
tchewan and Manitoba as we'll as
he Red River Valley of North Da-
:ota and Minnesota.
This part of the continent was at
hat time the grazing ground Of q

English traders met came from the
french at Montreal and Quebec.

BY the treaty Of Utrecht in III:
he English monopoly of the fur trade
n the west was recognized by tbs
French government. This did not
prevent Verendrye and his enter
,rising sons, l726-49, from cutting
westward directly through the rich
at part of this fur trade area tt
he Rocky Mountains and divertint
he Indian trade away from the Eng
fish. So serious were the losse
which the Hudson's Bay compan,
suffered from this raid an thei
preserves, that they were cOmpelle
70 build new trading posts farthe

French from driving them entirel,

Burleigh County J.
Court Reversed

Reversing the Burleigh county dis
trict court, the supreme court has
held the Northern Pacific railroad
liable for the amount Of sight
draft, issued by r. S, Clark az
receiver for the High Carbon Ignite
Mines. Inc, of Werner, Dunn county.
The railroad company objected to
the suit on the ground that it never
had accepted the draft for payment
and the lower court upheld its con.
tenti0n. The supreme court, however;
held that it had "constructively" ac-
cepted the draft for payment because
of certain incidents in connection
with the case.
