ESTABLISHED 1873 | HOUSE BEATS COOLIDGE BONUS VETO BRITAIN’S ao CHIEF DINES WITH THE KIN HIDE AND SEEK ROADPROGRAM GETS SETBACK ‘Vaniie Proposed 1 For “Enter Mandan Back Door Plan” Is Not Feasible FT. YATE! ” ARGUMENTS Join With Bismarck in Oppos- ing Proposed West of River Road Policy. The “you must come in our back door policy” which a few Mandan . citizens, have — pro- posed be followed in creating a highways system south of Mandan with the federal gov- ernment paying a good share of the cost has suffered its first setback, it became evi- dent today. Engineers who surveyed the so-called Man- dan plan found out that the extension of the highway down through Sioux county as’ proposed was virtually im- possible because of hills and j ravines. But the policy. hasn’t been altered materially, and the fight is going on to the bitter end. This also became evi- dent today. A new hide-and seek method of road building’ was proposed, with laterals ) galore, which won’t solve the problem after all, in the opin- 1on of Sioux county men who were here yesterday aftey- noon to talk the proposition over. A meeting was held after luncheon by representatives of the A’ssoi tion of Commerce of Bismarck, Su- perintendent E. D. Mossman of the -Standing Rock Indian Agency and other Sioux county citizens, and E. ©. Hathaway, federal district en- gineer and W. G. Black, secretary of the state highway commission, Dr. N. Q. Ramstad presented the atti- tude of the Association of Commerce, which proposes that Bismarck shall have a chance to entertain citizens from the “south country” and citiz- ens of the “south country" shall have @ chance te come to Bismarck and use the new $1,500,000 bridge without taking a circuitous route into Mandan’s back door. Emphasize Cut-Of The Bismarck men emphasized the cut-off road across the river which would intercept the St. Anthony road, on which cit-off local citizens by Private subscription and in coopera- tion with Morton county people have already built a bridge. Mr. Black told the meeting he was not opposed to this 1.miles cut off, which some Mandan citizens have bitterly oppos- ed, saying that bridge like the. new one over the Missouri should have as many feeders as possible. But so much for the Bismarck side, Sioux county has her argu- ments. In addition to Mr. Mossman the Sioux county men here included R. G. Bede, editor of the Ft, Yates Pioneer, G, W. Gokanson, Gus Hokan- son, Ray Shipman and C. G. Lew Hew. This is their outline: The bulk of the population of Sioux county is in the eastern part. That's where the government hus huge investments, ~ The territory around Ft. Yates is about equi-dis- tant from the Northern Pacific rail- road terminus at Cannonball and the Milwaukee railroad, which is a South Dakota feeder. If the few misguided Mandan zens, they say, succceded in forcing the people of this section of Sioux County—who live eust. of Bismarck although west of the river. a circuitous route to Bism Mandan, they will naturally go to ) the Milwaukee line to do business, | f and Mandan and Bismarck both will he the losers. That's one argument for building up the river road now ice as an outlet for this territory. Grade Of Road Another reason is that the grade on this road near the river is much easier than farther west, because it avoids the hills and ravines te large extent. The government has already spent many thousands of dol- yn of money on the road. This in- estment would be wasted under the new plan, two. Then the present Bismarck-Man- dan—Cannonbull-Ft. Yates road is a part of the capital-to-capital—or Bismarck to Pierre route—and North Dakota should improve her end to join with the South Dakota improve- ments, Also there is a star mail route from Cannonball to Ft. Yates and one from Ft. Yates to McLaugh- lin, 8. .D, This would have to be abandoned if the present road ex- penditures were rendered’ useless. Still another argument, Freight is hauled over the road from Cun- nonball to Ft. Yates. An improved highway might decrease the freight charge. But if the road is abandcn- ed the cost would be greater and would force North Dakota business agie Milwaukee and South Dakota. ill the Siqux county arguments pile up.

D., May 17.—A somewhat unique decision, involving the guar- dianship and custody of Lois Fiath, four year old orphan, of Stanley, N, D., has just been handed down in district court in Minot by Judge John C. Lowe of this city, wherein’ it is provided in part that Dr. A. Flath of Stanley shall become the guardian of the child. The case has attracted considerable attention, due to the fact that the two sets of grandparents have been seeking the custody and guardianship of the child. In a memorandum opin- ion recently written, Judge Lewe gave joint guardianship of the girl to Dr, A. Flath and Mr. and Mrs. Cens Nelson, all grandparents of the child, with power to agree between themselves as to the actual cnstody of the child.
