 Plans have been made for a final appeal to the democrats of the city to get back of the campaign and subscribe the remaining $500. It has been suggested that several community parties be arranged, but the committee does not believe that such measures are necessary. Members of the state committee include Governor Wilbur L. Cross, National Committeeman Archibald McNeil, Fannie Dixon Welch, David A. Wilson, chairman of the state central committee. and Nora Harris. Dr Dolan is the state di- rector.
 It is the plan of the committee to send a letter of personal &C., Acknowledgement to all contributors The chairmen of the local district committees were instructed at the outset to keep a list of all donors so that a check-up might be made by the state committee before the report is filed with Chairman Far ley.

Finding that the public served by a
carrier whose service has been reason
ably satisfactory to the shipping pub
lie should not suffer, the state rail-
road commission has denied request
of the Northern Pacific Railroad that

The transfer company. operating
motor freight service between James,
town and Turtle Lake and between
New Rockford and Darlington, last
September was granted an extension
of the certificate to include service

Following a hearing on petition of
the railroad and G. M. Springer Of the
jamestown Chamber of Commerce,
the commission denied the extension
of the certificate.
In February the Northern Pacific
filed complaint with the state COM
mission alleging the transfer COM
pany conducted motor freight service
between New Rockford and Devils

commission and asked an order be
made revoking certificates held by
the company.
The transfer company admitted
operating on the extension until COM
plant was filed by the railroad, but
added it assumed 1t could continue to
operate the Devils Lake-New Rock

of cancellation had been received.

Forest Bill Causes Confusion Here

Job-Seekers Invade u. S. Agencies

President Roosevelt's reforesta-
ton employment measure has Civ
en- rise to an unusual variation Of
the "Hutton, Button, Who's Got
the Button" game in Bismarck.
The only trouble with the game,
according to John A. Graham,
local representative Of the depart
ment Of labor, Is that "nobody's
got the button"
Since Roosevelt signed the re-
forestation bill last week many
applicants for jobs provided by
the measure have called on Ora
ham, U. s. army officials at Fort
Lincoln, and officials at the local
postoffice.
But none of these has author
ity to give jobs.
Graham said he has received
no instructions regarding en-

1t only in a general way.
