BISMAROK DAILY TRIBUNE an FRIENDLY SUIT MAY TEST STATE GRAIN RADE LAW Grand Forks Attorneys. Suggest That Constitutionality of Act Be Established A friendly suit may ‘be. instituted against the state to test the constitu- tionality of the new grain grading act, according to correspondence with O'Connor & Johnson of Grand Forks filed by Dr. E. F. Ladd with the rail- way commission this morning. The Grand Forks attorneys advise Dr. Ladd that their clients are not opposed to the law, but that inasmuch as doubts as to, its constitutionality ; have been expressed, they do not feel like proceeding under the act un- til all doubts are set aside. They suggest to Dr. Ladd that a friendly | suit would settle’ all questions, and his opinion on the matter is ed. In his reply, Dr. Ladd declines to discuss the question of constitution- ality, declaring this a matter for the railway commission, rather than he, to determine. He advises that he un- derstands various features of the act are to be passed upon at an early date, and that in the meantime he is} proceeding “ith the organization of his department. Secretary Calderhead of the rail- way commission had no comment to} make on the subject. G0 PROGRESS.

The farmers in that territory estimate their loss during the last three years at several million dol- lars, and claims for that amount are made in a suit now pending against the state of Minnesota, which is charged with dumping its flood wa- When You TRAVEL MUQUOUUUQUUEUOUEDUUOODOUCEDUODOUOOONND It is most important that your watch be accurate You depend on. it to get you to the station in time.
