Gavels Made From
Washington Elm to
Be Put in Museum

Speaker John Carr, Jamestown, of
the house Of representatives received
his second new gavel of the present
legls lative session on Washington 5
birthday.
Unlike the first, however, which
was huge "sledge" given him by
the Ward county delegation, the sec
ond was gift from the city council
of Cambridge, Mass, and was made
of wood from the famous Washing
ton elm.
A letter from the Cambridge city
council informed the speaker that
the gavel, and also a mate sent TO
the president of the senate, was one
of a number which have been sent
to be placed on presiding officers
desks of both houses of every state
legislature in the United States.
The letter stated that the gavels
were the gift of Cambridge to the
state of North Dakota. and that they
were either to be used by the speaker
of the house and the president of
the senate or be placed in some
museum.
Speaker Carr announced that they
would be placed in the state his
torical society museum at the cap
itOl, and remarked on the timely ar
rival of the gifts made from the
Washington elm on Washington's
birthday.
The gavels were Of the usual size,
and were finished in two-color
scheme.

in favor Of the measure. 1t was
passed by 81 to 81 vote.
Would Limit Loans
The second bill, a companion bill
limiting loans to one person or firm
according to sliding scale fixed
by the relation Of the surplus to the
capital stock, was also passed, 81
to II, after Fine and Rusch had OBJ
jectcd to the bill, contending that
it still allowed too large loans to
individuals in accordance with the
capital stock. The clincher motion
preventing recons Iteration except by
two-thirds majority, was added to
both bills.
The mixup on the house bill al
lowing families of physicians to re-
ceives railroad passes started wher
Senator D.. II. Hamilton, McHenry
county, offered an amendment to
also allow members Of the legisla-
ture to receive passes.
This led to general discussion OF
former sessions and railroad lcgis-
lation before it was defeated, 25 to
90. Legislators were prohibited from
receiving railroad passes at the 1911
session.
Senator Patterson followed with a
motion for indefinite postponcment
of the bill, but the motion lost on a
close vote.
Senator Walter Bond, Ward coun-
ty, entered the clash with move to
eliminate the provision that families
of physicians may receive passes.

present law.
All Restrictions Repealed
When this carried, Il to is, Sen
ator J. +. Stevens, Ramsey county
who had previously urged passage OF
the measure, countered with a move
to change the reading of the bill SO
that it repeats all restrictions
against giving railroad passes. His
motion carried, but differences over
the bill are expected to be ironed out
and the measure reconsidered. 1t
:. was passed by the house after stiff
fight.
Other measures were passed with
out comment. They included house
appropriation bills of $21 ,405.8S to
repay the Bank of North Dakota for
a loan made to the state insane hos
pital at jamestown, $4,000 to aid the
state engineer to cooperate with
county boards in flood irrigation
work, $4,000 for the North Dakota
Children's Home society, Fargo, and
$4,000 for maintenance of the state

tin and senate concurrence in the
house amendment is expected.
A bill permitting cities to levy
taxes for the support Of municipal
bands was recomme led for passage
r. f. Swendseid, Mountrail county,
objected that it opens a new field
for taxation and will cause endless
trouble to city officials who may be
besieged by rival band leaders seek
ing city appropriations.
Trubshaw Supports Bill
+. r. Trubshaw, Barnes county,
pointed out that the bill will permit
cities to support municipal bands
and asked that it be approved. As
recommended the bill provides that
no city may spend over $4,000 for
support of Il band and provides "A
sliding scale of taxation, the small
er cities being permitted to charge
higher rate than those with larger
valuation. Sixty per cent of the
voters must approve proposed band
levy before the law can be made cf-
fective in any city.
An attempt to amend the bill
changing October IL from Columbus
day to Discovery day and giving Lief
EriksOn equal credit with Columbus
for discovery of America failed.
Some members sought to add provi-
sion making Good Friday legal
holiday.
Rather than take upon itself the
determination of an historical fact,
however, the house supported an
amendment declaring that the Morse
man visited America about the year
1000. AS passed by the senate, the
bill gave a definite year. The mea-
sure will come up for final vote to-

was purely Diaz. His voice laughed
or sobbed or pleaded in a way his
listeners could not mistake. In the
same way John Powell played but
one piano selection that is ordi-
narily addressed to the emotional
part of concert audiences-the Chopin
Prelude with which he opened his
recital. The remainder OF his pro-
gram was made up of what most
artists regard as exhibition pieces.
But Powell made them something
more than that. He found music
in them-and showed his audiences
exactly where and what it was.

Frank Daniels proved in a rather
striking way that his old query

answerable-he was, is and probably
always will be the same laugh pro-
ducing, thoroughly satisfactory star
of his great piece-the music of
which led quite a lot of us to
wonder why it hasn't been revived
and become a staple in light opera
production like the Gilbert & Sui
Ivan productions. Its intrinsic worth
certainly would suggest it.
