Commission To Investigate Shoals, Plan Washington, March 7.—President QUIET ENDING MARKS LAST NIGHT’S The Bridge Fight The first attempts to bring up the bridge bills found Independent mem- bers holding their ranks solidly. Ef- forts to bring up the Sanish bridge bill failed, in the first brush over the measures, A similar motion on behalf of the Williston bridge measure catrying $200,000 appropriation brought a similar result. Then Senator Rusch of Cass county thought he would try his luck with the Fargo bill which carries a $75,000 appropriation. The Nonpartisans who had been voting for the passage of the other two bridge bills lined up solidly against Fargo, and the bill went back to the table. The waiting game was then resum- ed by both parties. In explaining his vote against the Williston bridge, Senator Eastgate of Grand Forks declared that he would vote against such a bill “until the Missouri river runs dry” so long as Williams county sends a communist to represent it in the legislature. He referred to Rep. Miller whose resolutions for the recognition of soviet Russia, and condemning im- perialism in the United States have " featured the session in the house. 3 .
