\ » ASK Would Take Obsolete Laws from Statute Books Relief from burdensome statutes by repeal of several tax laws now obsolete are to be recommended to the legislature by State Auditor D. C. Poindexter. He will urge the re- peal of: old mill tax levy on asylum bond sinking fund, glandered horse fund, wolf bounty fund, bovine tyber- culosis fund, old terminal elévator fund, agricultural and training school and edutational institution levies for the year 1914 and pfior years, The recommendation is to be made because appropriations now are being made for the maintenance of the institutions in the budget, and for the other purposes mentioned for payment at of the general fund. Tax levies are no longer made for the specific funds. Recommendation also ‘will be made for the repeal of certain sections of | the compiled Jats of 1913 relating to/ the handling of accounts of various counties with the state charitable institutions, including the insane hospital The law now provides, it is stated by the auditor, that the state auditor shall keep a record of the charges to counties of maintenance of pati- ents from, those counties in the in- sane and feeble-minded institutions. The county treasurers remit direct to the state treasurer. It is held more feasible by the auditor that the accounts be kept in the office of treasurer.

Mont. to Bismarck was a part of a| month’s vacation enjoyed by Miss Margaret Sheehan, stenographer inj the Supreme Court who has just re- turned from a visit with relatives at their Powder River ranch. Miss Sheehan wished to bring her favorite steed, “Bodey” a black’ blaz- ed face Western cow-horse with a “9 bar'7” brand on his left shoulder to Bismarck. Being accustomed to riding the easiest way of transport- ing “Bodey” from the Powder River ranch to Bismarck was to ride him through. 2 Unlike the wayfarers of old or the early day Indian fighters’ she was not “armed to the teeth,” when start- ing out. With no weapons more dead- ly than a pair of jangling spurs and $8 in cash the journey was begun. “Everybody treated me fine. I al ways had invitations for board and lodging. Not a single person would take any money feeding me and my horse. Two nights I slept in a bed, two nights in a hay rack with some ‘other travelers, and one night in a big touring car. I did give the chil- dren where I stayed some money, but it .was always against the protests of the older folks.
