PAGE EIGHT THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE” BRIDGE PAVING | PROJECT STILL 1S UNSETTLED Highway Body Confronted With Opinion That Bridge Money Cannot Re Used OTHER FACTORS IN Bismarck Citizens Continue to Voice Demand for Equality in Road Projects The State Highway Co hus not settled the qu whether or not a contra let for paving the Bismarck- Manda roud from the west end of the Miss ouri River bridge to a point near th Northern Pacific viaduet east of Mandan. ‘There is, according to Chief ver Black, a legal ques: | tion as to whether state bridge funds can be used ins paving this read.| Under the proposed plan Morton | county would pay one-sixth of the| cost, the federal government — half and the would come out of the fund. The highway commission may} theet tomorrow to consider the mat ter, the chief engineer said. Attor ney-General Shafer said no opinion} had been asked of his office as to the legality of the use of the state bridge fund money, but that a couple of years ago an opinion wai given from the Attorney-General’ office by Assistant Attorney-Gene Reimestad the effect that this| money could not be used without specific appropriations by the legis lature. Under this opinion the pre- sent plan of paving will not be car- ried out. ‘The question also has been raised by Bismarck citizens, carrying out} their announced determination of de- manding approaches to the new bridge from the southwest, that if the highway is paved as a part of the bridge project, provisions must} also be made for the southwest road reaching to this bluff, This, they believe, would greatly improve the avenues of approach to the bridge. By extending the lateral road, which would connect up with the St. An thony and Ft. Yates road, as a p: of the bridge project, the utility of | the bridge would be increased and the entire matter solved with the least possible expense to local ta&- payers, in the belief of local men. |t is probable that a mass meeting df business men of Bismarck will be called soon to thresh out the whole road problem. The local citizens are joined with} Ft. Yates and other citizens between Bismarck and that place in demand- ing incorporation of the so-called river road as a part of the state federal highway system. They point out that the recent state highway map of the highway commission omits this road, which has been for forty years a main artery of tr: serving a large number of desiring a direct route to Bismarck and Man Certain interests in Mandan, it is charged, seek to direct | this traffic over a route to west via| experimental station and reform | school.

Secretary of State The supreme court will grant an early hearing in the matter in which a review is asked of the action of the Secretary of State in declining to file petitions for u vote on a con stitutional amendment providing for a $6,000,000 bond issue to aid in reim- bursing depositors of closed banks and rewriting the Guaranty Fund laws, according to announcement of the supreme court.

He took up the position of the taxpayer and com- pared him to a stockholder in a corporation, pointed out the princi- pal similarities, but stated that- the chief distinction between a North Dakota taxpayer and a stockholder in a corporation lay in the fact that the taxpayer is interested in state owned industries in practical per- petuity. He traced the state owner- ship of private enterprises from House Bill 44 down to the present time, discussing briefly the fields of industry entered by our state, and concluded with a statement of what te ownership had cost to date and the inevitable tax burden y®t to come unless through a miracle our endeavors reach the apparently un- attainable goal of a profit, Upon the oceasion of J.

When the Nonpartisan League is organiz- ed, he sees in it a Utopia for the farmers and joins in the work. With the money he receives from the League he is able to provide the kind of a home he always wish- ed for his family. Jane becomes disappointed in the League and, upon investigation, de- clares it is operated dishonestly. Steven supports the League, and the disagreements between husband and wife finally cause their separation. Their trials and hardships, and their final reunion, make this story one of unusual appeal and interest.
