Pry grees OR GOVERNMENT IS —— KILLING OF SURVEY | BONZER BILL ECHO Highway Commission Slaughter Brings Break in Inde- pendent Ranks HOT WORDS OVER FARMER) Hyland Reference to Type of Hamilton's Mind Arouses Two Bitter Retorts Administration forces suffered al stinging defeat in the state senate, Wednentey, when the bill to create ® governmental survey commission was killed by a vote of 23 to 24. | It had not been expected that the bill would meet. serious opposition | since little criticism was expressed when it was considered by the state | affairs committee, but it met the al- | most solid opposition of Nonpartisan | League senators when it came to a vote Wednesday. , In addition, the bill saw the first break from the solid phalanx which ‘the Independent minority in the sen- ate has maintained at this session. A. P. Bonzer, Jr., Richland county, surprised his Independent colleagues by voting against the bill and it was ‘on his motion that the “clincher” was applied. The “clincher motion” is a method used in the North Dakota législature to reaffirm action on a bill so that it can be considered again only on a two-thirds vote. While Bonzer, was shocking his In- ndent. colleagues in the senate by ing af administration bill, the Ihtependent, majority in the house was killing a pet bill of Mr. Bonzer, the measure to reorganize the state highway department and place its operations under the direction of one in, The general assumption was ihe Bonzer’s vote in the senate was a tit for tat affair and was the meth- od adopted by him to show his re- sentment of the administration's ac- tivities against the highway reorgan- tion bill. Seed Certification Passes H larly throughout the session or more Nonpartisans have joined the Independents, but the break inithe Independent ranks came as & and was the subject of con- siderable talk among the legislators ‘night. is ( words were exchanged on a bill to revise the ‘state seed certification law.

There was no debate but a feeling of tenseness pendent ranks at this session. During the time that search was belng made for Martin, several com- mittees met to dispose of work which had been assigned to them. Opposing the bill to do away with registration by assessors of the po- litical affiliations of voters, C. W. Fine, Benson county, charged that it was the first step in an attempt to do away with the primary election law. Party Registration Fails J. P. Cain, Statk county, said the present law never did any good, that it handicaps the free expression of the voter and is not being carried out as intended. The bill has no ‘political basis and will not help or hurt any party or faction, he said. He con- tended that the voter should not required to make his choice of politi- cal affiliation until he goes to the to double the amount and the fur | polls at the primary election. In ad- flew thick and fast. Not all of the débate was between political oppon- ents, A. W. Fowler, Cass county, tal ing issue with Frank Hyland, Ram. sey county, when the latter intimated that enough money already had been appropriated for the agricultural col- lege at Fargo. Hyland also tangled with D. H. Hamilton, of McHenry @ounty, Non- partisan leader, who rose to a point of personal privilege to express re- sentment at Hyland's reference to the “type of mind of the gentleman from McHenry.” Olson’s motion lost and the bill passed with the original appropri- ation of $15,000. Independent Break Comes ‘A bill eliminating the law requiring voters to register their political affil- iations with the assessor-in April was on the calendar for passage another debate. Indications are that it will pass without trouble. ‘There was no debate on the gov- ernmental survey bill. Senator Ham- ilton said he saw no need for @ sur- vey of the government since it would only create a new board to draw salaries and had so expressed him- self in committee. Bonzer’s loud-voiced “no” came like @ polt from the blue when the roll ‘was called. He was the only Indepen- dition to being useless the present sys- tem is expensive, he said, since the assessors must be paid for their work. Fowler said the present law requires the voter to make up his mind as to political affiliations in April, three months before the primary clection, and at a time when the issues may not be clear or the candidates even selected. By giving him the choice of party affiliations at election time he can vote more intelligently, Fow- ler said, and pointed out that in some Places failure to register with the assessor in April had resulted in the disfranchisement of voters. Ole Ettestad, McHenry county, said he always felt that his political af- filiations were none of the assessors’ business and that he wanted the right to change his mind about his party affiliations after the April assess- ment as well as before. It would be only fair to the people to make the change, he said. Dell Patterson, Renvillc county, said the present law requires the voter to abide by the selections of some party organization and puts party above principle. Contending that principle is greater than party, he claimed the voter should have the right to revise his normal party affiliations whenever he felt so inclined. Elimin- ation of the registration would give dent voting against the bill and P. O. Sathre, Steele county, was the only Nonpartisan supporting it. The roll call showed 24 voting against the bill but Gust Wog, Billings county, found that his vote had been incorrectly re- corded and. later changed it, making total 25. i “immediately moved the motion.’ Hyland demanded to know if the re} had not unani- mously favored the bill and asked when it was reported in, if the sudden in attitude had occurred since Sunday. He was told that the report ited Monday. : ‘Absent at Voting Fowler demanded a call of the scn- and @ roll call showed Senators a more freedom of choice, he said.

O. H. Olson, Eddy county, said one party ticket at the primary and help to nominate a weak man who could easily be defeated by their own can- didate in the fall. The motion to kill the bill lost, 25 to 19. A telegram was read from a group of Minot persons interested in the proposed flood control bill, asking {the senate to give them a workable | bill or to kill it altogether. The tele- gram recited numerous specific ob- jections to amendments made by the senate state affairs committee. \ ‘Walter Bond, Minot, said some ad- ditional amendments had. been pre- pared which would meet all the ob- jections except that. providing for an original vote of people in the pro- posed conservancy district to see if the district should be formed to oper- ate under the. terms of the bill. If the persons signing the telegranr could not approve that the bill should be’ killed, he said. Warm Words Over Travel An amendment to the omnibus ap- propriation bill, lifting the travel al- lowance of the insurance commission- er from $500 to $750 carried after some discussion. It had joint sup- port. William Watt objected that the amendment could have been present- ed to the appropriations committee {but was not and Hyland said he would support a motion to cut all travel al- lowances from the budget with the exception of that for the state trans- portation officer who takes detention. He said it is his idea that state officials should stay on the job instead of absenting themselves at conventions. ©. H. Olson, who of- fered the amendment, had explained that the insurance commissioner needed more travel allowance to at- tend conventions where business in which he is interested is transacted. Bond said it would be just as fair to provide a fund for legislators to attend the convention of the legisla- tive association, which he understood existed. P. J. Murphy, Walsh county, said it was worth while for the state to have the insurance commissioner at- tend the conventions and meetings and Fowler also contended that there was justification for allowing the in- surance commissioner more for travel and insane persons to institutions for | expenses than is given to the other departments, which get $500 each. Fowler said-the insurance business is highly technical and that the state would profit by having the insurance commissioner keep in-close touch with ce world. ‘it seems to be the policy here that whenever any- one makes a good plea you grant him the money. If the budget board did the same thing it would mean an in- crease in appropriations of from $500,000 to $1,000.000.” The amendment carried 33 to 12. Set Up Roar Over Farmer Olson's attempt to boost the appro- priation for the seed certification division of the agricultural college produced heat and bitterness before it finally was beaten. Watt said the appropriation was for a revolving fund which would be maintained by fees to be collected from persons whose fields were cer- tified by the department, and E. H. Brant, Emmons county, explained that some salaries for department of- ficials had been taken out of the ap- Propriation in the past. J. E. Eastgate, Grand Forks county, contended that farmers who have their fields certified should pay the cost and Paul Kretschmar, Logan county, said the legislature was told four years ago and two years ago that the fees would maintain the revolving fund, whereas a new appro- priation had been asked each time. Ettestad said farmers who. raise certified seed get more for it and should pay the cost of certification. Hyland Angers Two Sena.» Patterson charged into the argu- ment with the declaration that everv time something to help the farmer ‘was proposed it met strenuous opposi- tion. He said hundreds of thousands of dollars could be appropriated for buildings and other items, but a small appropriation to help the farmer caused an unholy roar to go up against it. Hamilton said the additional ap- propriation is necessary to give serv- ice to farmers who want their fields certified, and he presented some other arguments in favor of. the bill. Then came Hyland’s reference to the “type of mind of the gentleman from McHenry,” which served as an introduction for the statement that he is sick of hearing about imaginary pervaded the senate chamber as the | danger is that it gives adherents Of | woes of the farmer. He said that result of the first break in the Inde- | one party a chance to vote the other huge sums have been apportionad to the agricultural college, a department of which administers seed certifica- tion, and recited some of these appro- Ppriations in detail. He asserted that the additional appropriation would not help the poor farmer but only those who already were in good posi- tion and could take advantage of the law. The number, he said, would be few. He closed with the heated declaration “If this was decided on in | lat caucus go ahead and ride over us, but you won't do it without my opposing vote.” Hamilton and Fowler each clamored for recognition and Hamilton’s plea to raise a point of personal privilege won. He demanded to know what Hyland's reference to his “type of mind” meant and asserted his right to consideration in no uncertain terms. Fowler got the floor next and de- clared that each bill should stand or fall on its own merits and that he saw no significance or merit in Hyland's reference to the other appropriations for the agricultural college and no logic or force of argument in his con- tentions. He suggested that the dis- cussion be confined to the merits of the bill and demanded to know the occasion for all the heat and turmoil, He‘ suggested that the best thing would be to get the pertinent facts on the matter. There was no mis- taking his own heat, however, as he replied to Hyland’s reference ‘to the tural college appropriations. The amendment lost 21 to 22. ° | The Day in Bismarck * | + i House meets at 10; senate at 11:30, Both houses face heavy calen- rs. Bills before house include pessly- $3,000,000 in appropria- ’ ions.

THIS HAS HAPPENED RUTH LESTER, secretary, finds the body of her employer, “HANDSOME HARRY” BOR- DEN, Monday morning sprawled beneath the airshaft window of his private office. He was shot some time between one and four Saturday afternoon. McMann, detective sergeant, questions the following sus- pects; Ruth, MRS. BORDEN, Borden's estranged wife and mother of his two children, who admits calling Saturday after- noon; RITA DUBOIS, night club dancer, who says she called on Borden Saturday afternoon to get the torn half of a $500 bill he promised her; JACK HAY- WARD, Ruth’s fiance, whose of- fice is across the narrow air- shaft from Borden's. Hayward says he returned to the seventh floor Saturday to get his and Ruth’s matinee tick- cts left on his desk. Jack’s guilt seems emphasized by the testi- mony of MICKY MORAN and OTTO PFLUGER, eleva bo; and of BILL COWAN, Jack's friend, who says he heard Jack threaten Borden's life.

She could not force her fingers to close upon the small, flattened-out lead bullet which lay upon the palm of Detec- tive Sergeant McMann’s big hand. “The—bullet which _killed—Mr. Borden?” she gasped. “But I—don’t understand. .. . It’s—flat—” “Yes, it’s flat,’ McMann agreed, with dreadful significance. “And if’s not the bullet which killed Borden. It’s—the bullet he fired in defense of his life—but just an instant too ” Ruth shrank into her chair. “Please tell me. I don’t understand.” McMann’s hard gray eyes dropped. “Detective Carlson found this bul- let while you were out to lunch with Hayward. He found it on that strip of cement seven flights below,” and McMann pointed to the window over- looking the airshaft. “And after Carlson found this—” the detective returned the flattened bullet to his pocket and rose from Borden’s desk —"I_ found something else. Come here!” Ruth: followed him jerkily, on: ice- cold feet, to the window. Two pig- eons, strutting about on the window ledge. took flight, but she scarcely saw them. Her wide, frightened eyes followed the direction of McMann’s pointing finger—a spot in the brick wall beside Jack Hayward’s window. “See?” McMann persisted, but she scarcely saw them. Her wide, frightened eyes followed the direc- tion of McMann’s pointing finger— a spot in the brick wall beside Jack Hayward’s window. “See?” McMann persisted, but without triumph. “A new scar in one of those old bricks. I've examined it—and it’s new all right. That is where this bullet struck—harmless- ly. It was aimed at Harry Borden’s murderer, who stood in Jack Hay- ward’s window, but the finger which pulled the trigger was that of a man mortally wounded—or the shot would not have gone so wide of its mark. Do you understand now, Miss Les- ter?” Ruth raised her trembling hands to her face, pressed her icy finger- tips into her throbbing temples. “No! No!” she cried. “I don’t understand! All I know is—the person’at whom that shot was fired was not Jack Hayward!” a McMann turned from the win- dow, strode to Borden’s desk, took his seat again. Ruth followed un- steadily, her knees. so weak with fright that they could scarcely sup- port her small body. : “What became of your pistol, which we know from fingerprint evi- dence that Borden had‘secured after you left Saturday, bothered me con- siderably until this evidence turned up,” McMann said slowly. “I believe that Borden was shot as he stood against that open window, that, as he fell, mortally wounded, his pis- tol—or rather, your pistol—clatt out of his hand to the cement below, His murderer retrieved it, dieposed of it along with the weapon with which he had killed Harry Borden.” “Retrieved it?” Ruth cried, sud- denly electrified: “How? How? If you mean. Jack Hayward when you say ‘his murderer,’ how could Jack have possibly retrieved my pistel on Saturday? Otto Pfluger, the eleva- tor operator on Jack's, corridor, has told you that Jack descended in hig car, not more than 10 minutes after oO There is no “And there is no record of his be- ing in the building Saturday night or Sunday,” Ruth told him trium- hantly. “I haven’t seen the register or those days, but I’m sure you have, and since I know Jack wasn’t in the Starbridge Building after two o’clock Saturday until nine this morning, I know his name is not on the register. That’s true, isn’t it?” “Yes,” McMann admitted. “But he could have walked down to the base- ment without using the clevator, or without being seen by the one man on duty after four o’clock Saturday.” “And that exit door to the court is kept locked,” Ruth cried. “It had to be unlocked for me. The porter in the basement had to send for Mr. Coghlan, the superintendent, in_or- der to get the key to unlock it. Fur- thermore, Jack never had the key to this office, so he could not have come here Saturday night or Sun- day and gained access to den’s office, even if he could have entered the building and left it un- observed by the elevator man. You must believe me when I tell you that the key which the waiter picked up and handed to Jack was the key to mr apartment, not my office key. No, Mr. McMann, you're on the wrong scent. Please believe me, please keep an open mind for some theory which will explain all the facts.” xk * “And one of those facts,” McMann pointed out, “is that Harry Borden fired a shot which grazed a brick in Ke wall beside Jack Hayward’s win- low. “And what does that \ ere against Jack?” Ruth challenged. “Pll grant that Mr. Borden was . |standing near that window when he was killed, but how can you be sure that he was facing the window when he took aim his murderer—or murderess—fired at him in this of- fice, iswt it easy to picture Mr. Bor- den’s arm flying out, after he was hit. so that the bullet with which he had meant to kill his attacker, was discharged through the window? Why assume that he had aimed at someone in Jack’s window? There was simply nowhere else for the bul- let to go—” “Just a minute!” McMann inter- rupted. Detective Birdwell opened the door between the private office and the outer office. “What is it, Birdwell? - “Commissioner Weeks on the wire from headquarters, McMann reached for the instru- ment on Borden’s desk, but before he removed the receiver, he spoke to Ruth: “That’s all for the present, Miss Lester. Please remain in the outer office till I need you again. You might open and sort the re noon mail. I'll take charge of it and go over it later, of course.” . As Ruth slipped through the door’ which Birdwell held for her she heard the detective sorgrant sree his superior, the police commission- ir. Sickly she realized what that call from the head of the police depart- ment meant. Commissioner Weeks was famous for his choleric temper, his impatient demand for quick re- sults, especially in sensational cases, like the murder of “Handsome Har- ry” Borden. His motto seemed to be “Arrest somebody — anybody — and find out the truth later.” In this particular case, Jack Hayward would undoubtedly be the victim of Com- missioner Weeks’ avid appetite for | Poor- newspaper praise. Fifteen minutes later, as she sat at her desk, trying to concentrate upon the thick sheaf of correspond- ence addressed to a man who would never read it, Police Commissioner Weeks arrived. Ruth knew. the commissioner personally, In the old days, before her father’s death, Weeks had occa- sionally dined with the famous crim- inal lawyer, Colby Lester. She rose and faced the tall, lean, disti ed-looking man who had ba a ue greeting to Detective Bird- well. “How do you do, Mr. Weeks?” she faltered, trying to make her trem- bling lips smile aherelly “I won- der if you remember me?” Light sprang into Commissioner Weeks’ cold. eyes; a broad smile beneath his stubby ing her cold little hand in both his. “Who could forget your pretty face? You're Colby Lester's daughter, of course. And while I’m mighty sor- ry that you’re dragged into this mis- erable business, I’m glad to see you again. How are you, my dear?” “Well, and—very happy,” Ruth an- swered steadily. “ Weeks, I’m et to a man I love w tered |Mr. John C.
