le s? + i q t pay i pj ‘3 t i ‘ i eyes TUESDAY, JUNE 26, 1917, LOAN FOR TWINE PLANT FIBRE 1S OVER SUBSCRIBED Board of Conttol Asks for §275,- 600 and Is Showered With Offers of $500,000 SAVING OF $66,000 FOR STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA Th board of control, which a few days ago humbly set out to seek a loan of $275,000 with which to pay for sisal and other fibres for the twine plant, finds itself buried under an avalanche of monéy and facing the necessity af hurting some friends’ feelings by declining to accept their assistance. The “issue,” as Chair- man Lewis stated this morning, was very much over-subscribed. Where- as the board anticipated some little delay in negotiating a short-time loan for $275,000, it actually found no dif- ficulty whatever in procuring offers exceeding $440,000. The excess advance in the cost of all fibres hit the prison twine plant when it came to pay for this season’s purchases’. Fibre that a few years ago sold for 3.84 cents now costs 16; fibre that was 10 and 14 cents is now} 26. Most of this fibre is bought at fereign ports; it mut be purchased at certain seasons of the year, often months in advance of ‘consumption. It is necessary ‘now to purchase a greater part of the stock for next year's run. The board found ‘that in order to take advantage of the fair prices‘at which its fibre contracts had; been placed, prices which effect a/ saving of $65,000 for the state, it must have in cTeady cash immediately $275,000. Goes Into Open Markel. There being no other sou: avail- able, the board of control went into the open market for its loan, and it advised the financi that it could not pay more than 5 1-2 per cent. There was an imme e response. Although money i’ a’ most needful commodity just now, Bismarck banks offered to advance $45,000; Fargo of- fered $86,000, and Grand Forks, $25,- 000. Three twin city banks each of- fered $125,000, and when it came time to sum up, the board found that it could borrow on its business reputa- tion a half-million if it really wanted to. The loan will run only a few months. Outstanding contracts pay- ing October, 1, will give the twine plant $440,000 with which to pay this and other obligations. In the mean- time, the state will have been saved $66,000 through the plant's ability to pay cash for its fibre. Thirty-seven carloads of fibre, representing an in- vestment of $125,000, are now here, being. unloaded at: the ‘penitentiary. RED CROSS FUND PASSES $30,000 (Contmued trom Fage Une) ““Oh, | wished I had a mot stead of a Ked Cross worker. Tribute to Women. (Mr. Goddard, in calling upon Mrs. Taylor, paid a tribute to the part th local Red Cross chapter, paid a spe- cial tribute to Mr. Goddard. He said, when Mr. Goddard consented to act, the movement gained force and power. “It has brought us closer together,” he said. “The ld flag means much more to us. Men here know each other better and we are better citi- zens for it, and Bismarck is a better place to live in. The spirit of the men and women is shown in the con- tributions. One solicitor brought in 300 pennies, saved by some woman or child. These represented a sacri- fice and showed the fine spirit which has accompanied all phases of this campaign. . Mrs. Taylor Speaks. Mrs. ‘W. C. Taylor, who organized the women teams, was asked to make a few remarks. “Tam thankful,” she said, “that I could be of some help in this move- ment. We found it some task to dis- trict the city and to keep in touch with the workers. After nine hours of telephoning to various parts of the city and receiving calls, my little daughter said, one day: PORE CLOGGING PIMPLES AND BLACKHEADS Easily Prevented by Use of Cuticura These distressing disfigurations are prevented, in most cases, by using Cuti- cura Soap forevery- | day ‘toilet pu and little touches of Cuticura Ointment as needed.

The District Convention. “Any member of any party may | call a convention and that conven- tion, if recognized by his party, be-| comes legal,” is the stand taken by Judge Burleigh F. Spalding, repre- senting Eurtness. “In the presenc in-| stance the convention was called by! a district convention; was recogniz- | ed by every one of the 13 counties, and was attended by duly elected del- egates from 12 of them. It was a| formal, legal delegate convention, representing the will of the republi-| cans of the First district. To call! the committee meeting held in Fargo | last week a:convention is ridiculous. | “We hold there is no question as ito the right to nominate by convention | in special elections where no special; provision..is, made in the primary laws. We contend there is no room for debate on this subject. The one} question is whether Burtnss, nominat ed by a district delegate convention called in a regular and lawful man-| ner, or Baer, named by a small rep- resentation of the state central com- mittee from all parts of the state, shall be considered the candidate of | the republican. party: in-the First dis- trict.” R. M. Pollock of Fargo is assisting Judge Spalding with Burtness’ case.
