BISMARCK DAILY TRIB! STUTSMAN AND BURLEIGH NOW ONE DISTRICT Amended Bill Redistricting State for ‘Judicial Purposes Makes Change The much amended house bill 124, redistricting the state judicially, was amended, once. more in committce of the whole. Monday, and it is now be- Neved to be more generally satisfac- tory. The dill also contains a clause which those familiar with judicial practice insist is no more. than bare Justice which gives jurists their actual expenses while holding court outside of their county. Under the present system in some districts where the mileage is extensive and where much of the court business is necessarily transacted outside the county where the jurist resides, a large proportion of the annual stipend of $4,000 has gone into traveling expenses. ‘There is said to be some division of opinion among the judges as to the advisabil- ity of the redistricting, but the pre- ponderance of opinion seems to be in favor of the bill which is designed by increasing the number of judges from 12 to. 15 and through a rearrangement of the districts to. lighten the work and make it possible to dispose of court work with greater dispatel Under the new -plan the fi dis- trict remains unchanged from the last rearrangement, but the second district is‘amended to include Pembina, Walsh, Towner, Cavalier, Rollette, Pierce, Benson, Ramsey,;, Bottineau, Renville and McHenry counties, with three judges. The new third district sist. of Richland, Ransom, Dickey, LaMoure, McIntosh, Logan and Emmonsgwith two judges, and the fourth would include Stutsman, Wells, Fé@ster, Eddy, MeLean, Sheridan, Bur- leigh and Kidder, and would have two judges. The fifth district would con- sist of Divide, Burke, Ward, Moun- trail, Williams and McKenzie counties and would have two judges, and the sixth would include all the counties west and south of the Missouri river and would have three judges The governor would appoint an ad- ditional judge in the first, second and sixth districts.

In eliminating the pro on, that two £ the list’ p: be the bi for regfstration, belicved by; mem- bers of the seuate who secured the reference of the bill to committee on Saturday, the joint highwaymen on Monday reported out the bill with the basic fee provision as in the original draft, which used one-half of one per cent Of the list price, twenty cents per hundred on the weight of the car and other considerations as a basis for tho registration fee, The objection to this system is that it is complicated Tho bill as it came last before the senato still included the objectionable provision that nove of the revenu derived from the registration of mo: tor vehi may be expended within the corporate limits of‘any Pruntelnah| ity. This was one knocked out by the supreme cour year ago. In the meantime the registration d partment of the secretary of state’ office. has returned to auto-ownel more than 7,000 applications for 1919 ORR lection shall be by such bank or banking association remitted for at} bar to the Bank of North Dakota.

STERN A For Constipation! Physic. Parge or Laxative?, Everyone now and then becomes constipated, and mil- lions ate chronically in ‘that condition. The perplexing question ariges—what to use. Purgatives and cathartics are drastic and usuaily, cause reaction. Saline waters ‘are rapid in action but do no'more than empty the bowels. Just as certain an effect, and certainly a much more pleasant one, can be obtained by the use of a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under the name of Dr. Caldwel}’s sSyrup Pepsin. It acts gently, without griping. It is an especially ideal medicine for children, women, old peoplc’and others who find purges too powerful. Only a teaspoonful is required, and by morning the move- ment is free and complete. ’A bottle in the house is insurance for the whole family against constipation, indigestion, head- aches, flatulency and other digestive ills. , * Dr. Caldwell’s The druggist will refund your money if it fails 'YRUP PEPsIN to do as promised. The Perfect & Laxative FREE SAMPLES— If you have never used Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin send for a free trial ' bottle to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 468 Washington St., Monticello, M1. PRICE AS ALWAYS In spite of greatly increased laboratory costs due to the War, by sacrificing profits and absorbing war taxes we have. main- tained the “price at which this family fax. ative has been druggists for the past 16 years.
