The government, with the aid of the state and two coun- ties, spent a million and a half dollars constructing a bridge across the Missouri river. Both Mandan and Bismarck widely advertised that it would mean much for North Dakota by’ promoting an interchange between people on the west and east sides of the river. Bismarck has done nothing, and will not do anything, to prevent citizens on this side of the river from crossing the bridge. But the few Mandan citizens promoting the new road scheme plan to make it inconvenient for many people living south of Mandan to use the bridge. A road from the Bismarck-Mandan road to the present St. Anthony highway would give residents of the southern part of Morton county toward the river an opportunity to come either into Bismarck or Mandan. . But a few Mandan citizens want to virtually abandon the present St. Anthony road, build a federal project which would enter the west side of Mandan, and lengthen the road for the sole purpose of preventing a large number of people from having the oppor- tunity to use the new bridge and to come to Bismarck. Not only that, but the whole system is designed to cause people in the Cannonball and Ft. Yates territories to travel to the west to make a trip to Mandan and Bismarck. The vesult is that the road system would tie up the southern part DETROIT Kresge Bldg. place from where they are “canned” | the} | Why let the | Hawaii Quits EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reprodueeé in this column may or may not ees the opinion of The ey @re presented here in order thi our readers may have both aides of important issues which are being Qiscussed in the press of the day.

The whole matter was a business transaction, and as such ought to be the business of any state government and not a matter of poli But since the present state administration fathered the system and is responsible for the law, it is entitled to take some pride in the comparison of the results under Mr. Baird to the results under the old method.

He has been here inspect- ing reindeer herds grazing in the pla- teau of Broad Pass. % Because of the encroachment of privately owned herds of reindeer on the Seward peninsula and Point Bar- row section of the territory, it is planned eventually to remove the Eskimo herds to Broad Pass, with Cantwell as the directing base. The first herd of 5,000 animals will be driven from the Seward peninsula to Iditarod next fall, allowed to recu- perate, and started again in time to cross the big rivers before the breakup in spring. “Particular care must be exercis- ed,” said Mr, Lopp, “itt handling the reindeer fawns. Once the human hand touches a fawn, its mother dis- owns it.’ For that reason the Eskimo herders wear gauntlet reindeer-skin gloves ard a reindeer-skin parka, and also spread reindeer skin in the sleds on which the little creatures are plac- ed until the herd rounds up for the ‘night and*they can be delivered to | their mothers.
