| | FRENCH HEADS ASSOCIATION OF STATE SHERIS Jamestown Selected As Next Meeting Place Which Will Be In July 1918 UNIFORM SYSTEM OF FEE CHARGES WANTED J. P. French of Bismarck was late Saturday afternoon elected president of the state association of county sheriffs. M. C. Stenby of ‘New Rock- ford was elected vice president, and J. N. Kunkel of Fessenden, secretary- treasurer. Jamestown was selected as the place for the next meeting, which will be held in July, 1918. ‘An effort to establish some kind of uniform system of fee charges to be adopted by the sheriffs of all the counties was left to a committee com- posed of Theodore Hartunk of Stark county, Oscar Olson of Morton coun- ty, and J.P. French of Burleigh. The committee named will establish a new list of fees, which will be submitted to the attorney general for his ap- proval, after which the schedule will he adopted. Claim Bill Impossible. H. B. 156, by Haines, providing that all the ballot boxes and poll books, which heretofore have been delivered personally ‘by the sheriffs to the elec- tion officers in the various precincts, should be sent by parcel post, was the subject of the hearing ‘before the sen- ate committe Saturday evening. The sheriffs argued that the provisions of this bill might work in the small. and niore’'thickly populated counties, of the eastern part of the state, but that it would be impossible to put it into effect in the western part. It is under- stood that the senaie committee will | at all. report out the Haines bill for indefi- nie postponement. Sheriffs at Convention. Present at the convention were: J.

It is the most effective way to break a cold and cure grip, as it opens the pores of the skin, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus break- ing, up a cold. ‘Try it the next time you suffer from a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive * and entirely vegetable, therefore safe and harmless.
