A statement for 1919 and 1920 is not made it is stated, because production . records could 1i)t be found. Regarding subscriptions of the Gra Forks Commercial club on bonds the audit report says: “Item of Grand Forks Commercial club, bond subscriptions, represents two cash de- posits—$50,000 on Aug. 20, 1920, and $10,000 on Dec.:28, 1920. The addi- tional $3,800 is in the nature of sib- scriptions and were‘ used for ‘the; pay- ment of interest on subscriptions to July 31, 1921, in the amount of $3,- 066.66 and cash deposited in the Bank of North Dakota of $733.34 on August 29, 1921.”.° This, item’ was set up as li- ability and there is this explanation: “This transaction was apparently handled by the Secretary of the Grand Forks Commercial club, and no sub- scription list was on file in the office of the Grand Forks Mill, Industrial Commission’ or the Bank of North Da- kota. No interim certificates or bonds. appear to have been issued for the sald amount.” _ The value of the Drake mill is. fixed, as follows by auditors: Original Purchase, $20,000; additions, $9,088.08; furniture ‘and fixtures, $1,027.27; le: depreciation reserve $3,629.46; less de- preciation in value, $5,000; net worth of plant, $21,475.89. A ‘total of $23,053.79 applicable to 1920 sales of flour of the Drake mill on assignment has been written, off the’ books by. auditors as uncollectible.

Syllabus: 1. Where most of the jurors called for trial of a case had sat in from one to six similar cases brought’ by differ- ‘ent policy, holders against the same insurance company, and fried at the same term, in which the complaints were practically identical and the an- swers substantially the same, and the witnesses for the plaintiffs were gen- erally the same, with the-exception of the plaintiff in each case, and’ the witnesses for the defendant, were practically identical in all of the cases; and, where such jurors stated upon their voir dire that they had made up their minds upon the con- flicting qpestions of fact submitted in the previous cases, and that if the facta were the same, in the case upon trial, their decision would necessar- ily be the same; that it would require additional evidence on the part of the defendant to overcome ther opinions on such facts; that if the evidence was the same they would come to the same conclusion; that their minds were fixed and made up after hearing the evidence in the other cas that the defendani's challenge for cause should have been allowed un- der subd. 6, sec. 7616, C 1918, providing that “hav: qualified opinion or belief as to the merits of the action founded upon knowledge of its material facts or BY STANLEY au ATT it “| there was no some of them,” is ground of challenge for causé, even though, the jurors , stated, when interrogated by the court, that they .could try the case fairly and impartially on the evidence, and declared themselves to be. free from bias or prejudice. 2. An instruction that if the jury believes an agreement of, accord had been entered into whereby defendant had agreed to repay to plaintiff his premiums, and an additional amount in case other policyholders received more than a repayment of their prem- ium, plaintiff, before the accord was }| completely executed, might repudiate it, and sue upon the original obliga- tion without rescinding the accord, was erroneous, it appearing that issue raised by the pleadings as to any agreement by de- fendant to pay plaintiff any such ad- ditional dmount, and that all testi- mony with reference thereto had been erroneously admitted over defend- ant’s objection. . : 3. Under Sec. 5825, Comp. Laws, 1913, providing that an accord is-an_ agreement to accept in extinction of an obligation something different from or less that to which the person agrze- ing to accept is entitled, there may be an accord of either a liquidated or a disputed unliquidated demand. 4. Certain testimony held to have been erroneously admitted. 5. Under Sec. 3535, Comp. Laws, 1913, providing (hat witresges are entitled to receive for each day's at- - tendance before the District Court the sum of two dollars, a witness called to testify in a number of cases at the same term is entitled to receive in a particular case the statutory fee for only the number of days he was actu- ally in attendance before the court for the purpose of testifying in that case. 6.. Under Sec. eComp. Laws, 1913, providing that witnesses are en- titled to receive for each mile actu- ally traveled one way ten cents, a wit- ness coming from without the state ig entitled to receive the statutory um for the number of miles actually traveled within the state. 7. An attorney appearing in a case before the Court as counsel for one of the parties, even though he is called as a witness in. said cause, is not entitled to’ witné§s fees. 8. A person called ‘as a witness vho is plaintiff in another similar ac- tion and is presént in court awaiting trial of said action is entitled to wit- ness fees for his actual attendance in court on account of the case in which, he testifies, the same as any other witness.

M of Fargo, New Constitution For Palestine Is’ Criticized Some Jerusalem, March 23.—Publication of the newly rroposed constitution for Palestine which was completed after long discussion between represerita- tives cf the British, government and of Arely and Jews of this country caused widespread rejoicing and-a good deal of dissent. It is evident that the ex- tremists on all sides of the céntro-” versy here are not satisfied but on the other hand there is an apparent major- ity who regard the new draft as a com- promise which should satisfy the aspir- ations of all concerned. These gener- ally express the hope that the new constitution will be speedily adopted and confirmed by the League of Na- tions. On the other hand the dissentists, Arabs and Jews alike, have organized themselves to obtain the Inodification of some. of tiie terms in the draft. The natives want the granting of national- ity to he nade contingent upon a real- dence of five years instead of almost no residence as proposed. The Zionists object to’ giving the Arabs a majority in thé legislative council, ‘TRIBUNE WANTS—FOR RESULTS
