B, 233, the nonparty state election law whica is a part of the Independent ad- ministration‘ progtam. The vote on the final passage of the bill was 26 ays, to 19 No. The division was elorig strictly party + lines, except that Senator William | Martin, Nonpartisan of Morton vot- ed with the Independent senators | for the pasage of the bill and Sena- | tor Rusca, Independent of Cass vot- ced with the leaguers against it, | very resource of delay availble | was exhausted by the Nonpartisan | League senators befora the measur- | er was permitted to come to a| 9 ator Hamilton, Nonpartisan of | ASE un County opened the at- on the bill. “This is a vicious! measure” he declared. “Every can- & didate should stand on the prin-| ciples of the party which nominates | him in order that the voters may | may ‘fairly expect bill not only does away with party principles but the | principles of the voter himself.” Senator Baker of Renville, the league leader of the senate arose to ask Senator Carey, chairman of the committee on ‘elections who intro- duced the bill for an explanation of the reasons for its introduction. Says Intent is Plian “The intent of the bill is plain| on its face” answered Senator | Carey. “It is simply to extend to the state election the same nonparty em which has been found to work out so well in county elec- tions.” “Maybe it is” replied Senator Baker “but I was told"by a man wae haq just come from’ an I. V. A. meeting that its real reason was to! keep the I. V. A. in. power. The people of the state have turned this law down, and I promise you now that if it is passed by this legisla- ture it will again go before tae peo- ple and you will be forced to defend from every platform in the state.” Senator Whitmer, Nonpartisan al- so spoke against the bill, and Sen- ator Gross, of Grant, Nonpartisan, delivered a rather rambling dis- course which had little to do with + the bill in questionsbut was largely devoted to a defense of the I. W. W. He wound up his remarks by declar- ing that “the state faces a crisis.” “That is true,” shot back Senator Stevens, Independent, of Ramsey, | and it is just because the state is facing a crisis that we want this law passed. | Asks Note Delay | Senator Benson, of Rolette, Non- partisan arose and moved that a several senators were absent the final action on the bill should be put over until Thursday. He demanded know what they from him. Tais a roll call on his motion. The motion was defeated on a party vote, Senator Benson then again attempted to delay action by moving that the senate recess until Taurs- day, and again demanding a roll call.

The death of Miss Cavell has generally been attributed to General von Bissing, at that time governor of Brussels, but a letter from Baron von Der Lancken to the German for- eign secretary which has but recent- ly ben made public, relieves that official of this slur on his name, the correspondent writes. It is also established that General von Sauberzweig had the power to stay the execution in order to give time for. an appeal to the Emperor for mercy. To accomplish this Gen- eral von Sauberzweig would have had only to withhold his confirmation of the sentence of the court martial. Baron von Der Lancken was in Brussels at the time as an observer for the German Imperial Chancellory. He wrote the following letter: “The Cavell affair is known to your excellency in all its detgils. The ef- fect of it has been what I predicted to von Sauberzweig in an interview I had with him without, however, be- of the execution.” General von Sauberzweig,.as suc- cessor to General von Kraewel, wan ordered to institute a reign of ter- ror in Brussels, the correspondent declares, and throughout his admin- istration arrests and condemnations follgwed one another without cessa- tion.

The chairman of the appropri- | | ation committee, Rep. Watt, was ab-: isent from the session because of; illness. He declared it was the! third or fourth appropriation bill which came ih with the appropria- | tion committee not prepared to give detailed information concern- | ing it. Rep.

Dr. Guest asked for such a stoker which he said would cut the coal expenditure in the neighborhood of 40 percent according to gfarantees. There are 1,280 inmates in the in- stitution as compared to 1,288 two years ago. The committee allowed total ap- propriations of $160,000 for the bien- aim s compared with $283,000 ask- “he counties of the state pay $24 @ month per capita for persons from each county in the institution, this money providing most of the funds of the institution. This had been $30, Dr, Guest said, but had been out when war‘ prices had receded to 8 corporations throughout the state, including a million dollar building and loan association at Mandan, according to information available in the office of the secre- tary of state. Other companies formed were in Logan county, Leeds, Fargo, Wash- burn, Casselton and Grenora.

They are S. B. 74 which is amend- ed in committee would make the maximum contract interest rate in North Dakota 9 per cent, and Sena- tor /Miklethun’s S$. B. 144, making all deposits in banks of North Da- kota trust funds which could not be applied by the banker on obligations to the bank on the part of the de- positor. ‘The latter bill will probably be amended on the floor of the senate so as to eliminate the words trust funds from the bill as these words would have the effect of preventing the loan of such deposits it is con- tended. The senate committee on Banks and Banking today voted to recom- mend for passage Senator Christ Levang’s S, B. 24 making interest on state bonds payable in New York. This is expected to add to the sala- bility of the bonds. The house committee on banks and banking unanimously voted to recommend for passage H. B. 141. This is an administration measure which amends and strengthens leg- islation regarding the Bank of North Dakota. It provides for a strict examination of the Bank of North Dakota annually by the ‘state examiners’ department, — eliminates tax exemptions of deposits and cuts the amount which may be loaned on warehouse receipts to 75 percent of the value of the security. A majority of the house judiciary committee today voted to recommend for indefinite postponement Sen- tor Martin’s bill to cut the maxi- mum contract interest rate to 8 per cent. Discussion of the proposed repeal of the present state licensing de- partment law featured the session of the house committee on state affairs today. There are two bills on this subject before the house one being in the hands of the com- mittee on state affairs and the other in the committee on temperance. A new proposal inthis connec- tion was that all pool hall licenses and r funds be collected by local governments and retained hy them, but that a speci ation be made to permit the attor- ney general’s department to employ one or more detectives to assist in the work of uncovering violations of the state’s “moral laws.” SEEK RUSSIAN CROWN JEWELS IN SOLDIER’S COFFIN ery; 1,400 bushels of beets; 50 of| navy beans; 1,300 of carrots; 500|jury, The government should make that historic answer and it can be cucumbers;) 50 dill; 20 egg plant; 700 (bushels) lettuce; 80 muskmel-' best spoken from the throats of naval ons; 2,800 onions; 1,400 parsnips; 40/ guns.” peppers; 25 parsley; 200 radishes; 1,600 rutabagas; 600 spinach; 200 in Sava SEEK SLAYER sweet corn; 600 string beans; 800 tomatoes; 400 turnip; 600 green Anniston, Alabama, Feb. 8.—Of- ficers of Calhoun and Talledega peas; 40 tons of rhubarb; 60 tons of squash and 600 watermelons.

It is believed the “ultimatum” is sued by the Turkish general staff which is on a tour of inspection in Anatolia will be withdrawn as soon as the Angora authorities under stang and the allies are firm in re sisting the demand that allied war ships quit Smyrna harbor. Opinion was expressed in Brit ish circles that the American reprc sentative at Smyrna joined in th protest. Paris, Feb. 8.—The French press attaches the greatest importance to the Smyrna situation, regarding it to be so delicate as to render the declaration of war inevitable, unless the Turks recede from their position in demanding the withdrawal of allied war- ships. It is pointed out that there are probably 10 large naval units at Smyrna. These included a French crusier, at least two British craft and one representative each of the Italian, Dutch and Amer- ican navies. In addition ther: is a flotilla of light craft. L: Matin remarks that no one questions. the right of any government to close certain ports to warships under nor- mal relations, but that to ex- pell warships anchored in : port before the signature o! peace constitutes an unfrienc act. ORDER SHIPS AWAY The Turkish government the newspapers say, in in- forming the high commission- ers at Constantinople of iis decision to demand the de- parture of the ships justifies its position by saying that British warships could lan: troops at Smyrna with a vie. to taking in the rear of th: Turkish army in Asia Mino: The commissioners repli that the warships would r main where they are. To this Le Matin continues, the ‘Tu ish authorities announce:! that they would compel t} craft to depart unless th: went of ‘their own free will. The British and Fren commanders then, receive orders to reply immediate|; to any attack. If any such situation arises. the newspaper asserts, 1 power however anxious {« preserve peace, would be al) to limit its effect.
