From the introduction of the bill,

corruption by legislators and men,

doubtedly many people believed them

any improper acts on the part of leg

turned, and am sure none was, the
alleged offenders were never brought
to trial.
AS have said, the honors of MEM

they may have been they were more
than offset by the obloquy that was
cast upon it's members, whether

blight the aspirations for office of

lie institutions of this state in the
constitution. Some will recall that
there was great opposition to doing
this with the result that something
like 5000 votes were cast against the
adoption of the constitution. This
opposition originated and was fos-
tered by the same element which
sided with the Yankton people in
1883. In fact, the opposition to Bis
marck as the capital was so strong
over the state for several years that
there were sessions of the legislature
when, if Fargo, had had a foot-loose
delegation there-that is, one not tied
up by personal friendship or other
wise to Bismarck and its people-the
legislature would have acted favor
ably to change to Fargo.

Announces

To avoid payment of penalty, North
Dakota automobile dealers on Oct.
will be required to register all We

w. s. Graham, state motor vehicle
registrar, Thursday called attention to
an act OF the last legislature provid-
ing that licensed dealers who report
used cars on hand on May Is to the
motor vehicle department are not re-
quired to register such vehicles until
Oct. l. The vehicles, however, must
be registered not later than Oct. l by
the payment of all back fees due on
them, together with penalty, if any,
due for the previous year.
Penalty attaches on such cars at
the rate of 10 cents day for is days,
beginning Oct. q; therefore, on all
such cars that have not been regis

Varied AchiUiHes

BECAUSE so much publicity has been given
= to the activities of the Biological Survey in
seeking to preserve the wild life of the country.
the general impression is that this bureau
stands between man and his hunting. This Is
true in part, but the survey also does bit OF
hunting on its own account. During the past
year, in Texas alone the professional hunters OF
the survey aided by others, killed total of IT,
ATS bobcats, coyotes, mountain lions, wolves ana
ocelots.
The activities Of the survey, in SO far as
hunting is concerned are intended to aid IN
the preservation of the wild game, both bird
and beast, and where it is necessary to restrict
the hunting season this is done in order that
one disastrous mating season. when the crop Oh.
young may be far below normal shan not De
coupled with long open season to bring abouu
such a destination Of the particular game az
fected that years and years would be required
to restore normal numbers.
Inasmuch as the beasts killed in Y@kSs are
predatory beasts which carry on never-ceas1ng
hunger warfare against the game birds and
animals the survey considers them as natural
enemies to be eliminated.
In California the blackbird and the Innet do
a tremendous amount of damage annually TO
the crops of that State and control plan car
ried ON by the Biological Survey last year cut
cent TO 95 per cent.
Another successful hunt, if it may be called
that was carried in Florida, where cotton
rats had been doing an annual damage of
about S150,000. BY the expenditure OF $500 the
damage to truck crops in the affected area was
just about entirely eliminated
The rat, in fact is one of the principal foes
of the survey and during the past year more
than $50 individual and widespread campaigns
against the brown rat were carried ON. These
campaigns were aided greatly by ready
red-squin bait which the bureau perfected
This particular poison is highly fatal to rats,
but does not harm other animals or man.
The bureau is charged with the duty of de-
veloping the various game preserves in the
United States and much has been done along
this line in the past year to bring to fruition
plans long under way to establish proper areas
for the protection and raising of wild water
fowl, one class of birds seriously depleted by
the drought conditions of the past few years.

the American national songs, came into
being largely through a political campaign. 1t
is a combination of words by Judge HopkinSon
and tune known as "The Presidents March
ascribed to a theater orchestra leader named
Pfyles and also to German musician, Johannes
Roth.
This tune was first played when Washington
crossed the bridge at Trenton on his way to
be inaugurated. Later during the campaign
for the presidency of John Adams the words
and tune were hooked together to make pop
uIar political campaign song. 1t was ridiculed
by Madison and jefferson, but despite the rid1-
cuIe it lived to become national song.
