PETITIONS HELD THE NOMINATING AGENCY IN FIRST Ruling From Office of Attorney General Verifies Popular Opinion in Matter CONVENTION) SYHTEM\DEAD FOREVER)IN NORTH; DAKOTA That petitions afford the only proper and legal nominating medium in the First congressional district, and that candidates who run on petitions may state their principles in these peti- tons and may have their names printed on the official ballots with the regular party head and designation following, is the opinion of the attorney general’s orice furnished Governor Frazier to- ay. The opinion is in line with state- ments generally expressed by attor- neys who have given the subject thought. The attorney general's of- fice also holds that under the primary system the old party caucus and con- vention is forever dead in North Da- kota. There may be some division of opinion on this point. — Gives Some History The history of primary election leg- islation is traced from 1905, when the original law affecting city, county and legislative offices was passed, down through the amendments of 1907, ex- tending the primary jurisdiction to state, court and congressional offices, and the amendments of 1909, 1911, 1913 and 1915, and the author of the opinion holds that all of these amend- ments operate to wholly repeal the old convention system; “that no au- thorized committee now exists to call or make provision for caucuses and conventions, and that it would be as|N inconsistent for the present state cen- tral committee or any division thereof to attempt to exercise the functions of the old caucus system, as it would be to call a general primary for the spe- cial election.” Wood or Bronson That Howard R. Wood or Harry A. Bronson of Grand Forks, former state senator and now first assistant at- torney general, will be the league can- didate in the First congressional dis- trict to succeed the late Henry T. Hel- gesen is an opinion that is gaining ground over the state. VACANCY. IN. PREMIERSHIP WAY *FOLEBW? SOON} London, May 25.—A vacancy in the Austrian Premiership may soon fol- low the vacating of the Hungarian Premiership according to reports from Amsterdam today. <A message from Vienna indicates that the rumors of the resignation of Count Clam-Mar- tinic, the Austrian Premier, are per- sistent, and $jdunt lenhgve, Gov- ernof of Bohemia, is mentioned as suc- cessor to the Premier. Two of the most likely candidates for the Hun- gary Premiership in succession to Count Tisza according to Vienna dis- patches are Dr. Alexander Weckerle, a former Hungarian Premier, and Archduke Joseph. Both of these men, the newspapers comment, have held aloof from party strife and have the support both of the populace and the Crown. MOS Mane Seorarenss are cur pes Grane Pint U S.

Hanna — FINAL ACTION WILL BE TAKEN NEXT THURSDAY North Dakota may purchase $100, 000 worth of Liberty Loan bonds from the surplus which has accumulated in its permanent university and school lands fund. When North Dakota be- came a state, the government grant- ed lands for the perpetual benefit of |the public schools, which will ulti- mately bring the state $50,000,000 Former Governor’ Hanna’s suggestion that $100,000 of the surplus which has accumulated from the sales and leases of these lands be appropriated for the purchase of bonds was con- sidered at a meeting of the board yesterday. One. member—the attor- ney general—was absent, and the four present divided, two and two, on the proposal. The only argument advanced against the purchase of the bonds was that taking $100,000 out of the fund might discommode the farmer, who probably will be a heavy bor- rower from the state this fall, when he will need large sums for the har- vesting of his bumper crops. The state treasurer points out, however, that only a certain. percentage of the surplus canbe put out in farm loans, and that there already has ac- cumulated more than $100,000 in ex- Final action was deferred until next Thursday, when, it is believed, application for $100,000 worth of bonds will be made. “Uncle ‘Sam gave us these lands to begin with,” said a member of the board, “and the least we can do is to loan our nation a paltry hundred thousand in its time of need. I do not believe there is a farmer in North Dakota who would not favor such a loan.” FIRST TORPEDO KILLS.

QUNN CENTER TO BUILD MUNICIPAL AUDITORIUM Progressive Missouri Slope City Will Have’ Modern Social Center Soon Dunn Center has voted to bond for the construction of a modern muni- cipal auditorium, contracts for which were let this week, and which is to be completed probably within ninety days, advised Theo. G. Nelson of that hust- ling village, who was a visitor at the state house today. The auditorium will be a frame structure, 80 by 40 feet, and will be owned and controlled by the village, whose citizens will pay for the build- ing through taxation, as is being done in the case of the Bismarck auditor- ium. The Dunn Center building will combine all the features of an audit- orium, theatre and social center, ang will cost about $5,000. moe engine room, and stockhold, wrecked the machinery, put out ‘the electric lights, and tore away a large part of the side of the vessel. It also struck a loaded boat, blowing it to pieces. All the boats were rapidly lowered, the nurses aboard embarking first. The soldiers,; who were lying upon the decks shouted jocular farewells and sang Tipperary and other soldier songs. Destroyers raced to the res- cue and worked energetically; until; crowded to capacity with survivors many of them injured. Captain Bruell, who sunk into the sea when the decks of the sea were awash, was picked up in an exhausted conditions and died in a_ hospital ashore.
