THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1930 Banse on Fortune Telling, Milk, Garbage and Canned Music Before City. COMMISSION HEARS OF FLEECING CASES BY CLAIRVOYANTS One Woman Gives $1,000 Mort- gage, Then Gang Skips Away and Disappears DAIRY PROTESTS COME UP; Assessor W. A. Falconer Quits After 11 Years’ Service; John Graham Is His Successor The sharp practices of gypsy for- tune tellers who visit Bismarck were | revealed to the city commission, Mon- day evening, by Mayo. A. P. Lenhart, * when the matter of future licensing them to practice their occult art, under cover of which dupes have been fleeced, was brought up by City Audi- tor M. H. Atkinson. The mayor said permission to prac- tice here was becoming a matter of merely licensing them to rob people under the guise of healing and fore- telling the future or reading charac- ter. One young man, he said, had been fleeced out of $30 under pre- tense of curing an ailment, the for- tune telling woman even going through an exhibition of burning the money as part of the cure. However, when the victim reported to the po- lice and the chief asked the clairvoy- ant to appear at headquarters, she came with the money in hand and offered it back before an accusation even had been made. Another case LET, GO, ICH OROP OFF!

Since that case the tribe has left town and disap- peared Bacteria in Milk ‘The troublesome milk situation was brought up again by the July report of Dr. A. W. Ecklund, state bacteri- ologist, giving the bacterjological count of samples from the ‘various producing and selling dairies and the status of cleanliness shown by the tests. Also by the appearance of Mrs. Herman Ode with a protest against her exclusion from delivery of milk to one of the selling dairies here, on the ground of.too great a count in bacteria. The excessive count showed in the Ode milk during a short period when the family was absent from the city and help was in charge of the Ode herd. Mrs. Ode merely asked that further samples be taken and tested, as she was sure there would be no repetition of the unusual count. She asked that the commission take cognizance of the fact that this is an mely hot period of weather, and she suggested that some of the regulations pre- scribed by the Agricuitural extension service were not desirable, owing to the dryness and dustiness now prev- alent, as these conditions would tend to uncleanliness in the containers. W. E. Doty, who happened to be at the meeting on another matter of sanitation, reminded the commission that bacterial count was not actual evidence of a pernicious condition in milk, that there were healthy bacteria ll as unhealthy. Buttermilk, he cited, was a mass of bacteria yet it is prescribed as a diet in certain ail- ments for that very reason. The commission could do nothing except that Mrs. Ode thresh out her case with Dr. C. E. Stackhouse, the health officer, and Dr. Ecklund, the ‘bacteriologist, as the milk regulations cre a matter of ordinance under which both officials act automatically. Will Tie Up Canned Jazz Another reform was on the horizon last night. It is the curbing of indis- ‘eriminate music. Complaint has been made against the prevalence of jazz from cafes and other places open late into the night, preventing sleep to those abod nearby. An ordinance to deal with the matter will be drawn by City Attorney C. L. Young and will be presented at the next meeting. Assessor Falconer Resigns The meeting was marked by the presentation of his resignation by W. OF ELECTION COSTS North Dakota Senator Declares Time Has Come to Halt Primary Expenditures Washington, Aug. 5.—(#)—Recom- mendations by the senate campaign funds committee for federal legisla- tion to curb campaign expenditures were predicted today by Chairman Nye as @ result of the investigations the committee is carrying on in sev- eral states. The legislation, he believed, will be urged in the committee's first report on these investigations. A constitutional amendment to em- power congress to legislate on the nomination or election eandidates for the offices of senator and represent- ative, president and vice-president, is contemplated in the program the North Dakotan is preparing to submit. Nye said he expected other mem- bers of the committee to join him in active sponsorship of such legislation. “By the time congress comes back,” Nye said, “we will have figures on the costs of primary and generad election campaigns in 34 states—with a show- ing of a single campaign at the price of perhaps @ million dollars, and of ;5! another as little, probably, as $500. The inescapable conclusion is that legislation is necessary.” A legislative program proposed more than a year ago by Senator Bronson Cutting, New Mexico, Republican, de- signed to curb the high cost of elec- tion, has been brought to light again by Senator Nye. Nye is working on a plin involving legislation to provide that each state set the limit of election expenditures, and pay these expenses in final pri- maries. “This would mean preliminary pri- maries, to eliminate candidates who came in merely because of the free- dom to do so they would have under such. a system,” he continued.

Graham was ap- pointed an assessor last spring and both assessors have been on the task since then. The city now reduces the department to one man again. Sewer and Water Projects Up Bids on sewering Washington street from Avenue C to D were opened, owing to the need of hurrying in the sewer before the paving under way in that section reaches this block, but the contract cannot be awarded until August 25. Frank G. Grambs offered 8-inch pipe at $1.05 a foot, 6-inch at 80 cents and manholes at $15, while H. A. Thompson and Sons bid $1.08, 83 and $16.50. Other* sewer and water projects came up in resolutions to open bids August 25 on laying 100 feet of water on Second street from the south of Avenue E to the north line, city engineer estimating @ cost of $270; also a main on Washington street between Avenues C. and D, estimated cost to be $1,100; and a Sewer on Anderson street from Rosser to Avenue B, sewer district No. 23, estimated cost $1,450.
