Referring directly to an advertise- ment by tion’s Business,” pub- lished exclusively in newspapers over the country, Senator Nye charged that the purpose of the publication «was to “blacken the names of states which have dared to depart from the beaten path blazed by privileges.” “The whole argument of the ad- vertisement,” the senator said, “is that in the ‘Russianized’ state of North Dakota, the state has tried its hand in the packing business, the banking business, the milling busi- “ness, the elevator business, the home building business and the insurance business, and failed.” Not All True “How much truth is there in this Bismarck—-Clear, 35; road: i St. Cloud—-Clear, 45; roads fair. 1 Fargo—Clear, 36; roads good.

Payments building ordinance for the city was completed last evening and the or- dinance was duly passed, It will be in effect after its publication. The ordinance specified ‘ how certain buildings must be constructed and provides for the inspection at inter- vals of all buildings being erected. The commissioners last night dis- tussed at some length the city’s traffic problems, especially regard- ing the congestion along Main and Fourth streets caused by parked au- tomobiles and the state house street car, Two methods of eliminating the trouble have been suggested. One is to order the street car to end its trip at the Lahr Motor Sales com- pany corner instead of the McKenzie hotel corner, and the other is to pass. an ordinance requiring parallel parking of automobiles along in and Fourth streets. The commission- ers decided to give the matter con- sideration during the week and to take the question up with the direc- rs of the Association of Commerce an effort to work out some sat- isfactory solution of the problem, The matter of prohibiting all- night parking of cars- along the streets in the business district was eee Loosen Up That Cold _With Musterole Have Musterole handy when a cold starts.
