FALCONER RECALLS SPEECH BY GRANT; Crowd at Capitol Ceremony De- manded Few Words From Ex-President Scenes attendant upon the laying of the cornerstone in the old capitol building 48 years ago were recon- structed for The Tribune Wednesday by W. A. Falconer, pioneer Bismarck resident. Falsoner and Col. C. B. Little were members of a local volunteer fire company at the time and took part in the parade to the capitol grounds, Falconer said. The ceremony occurred early in the day because the party of visitors headed by President Henry Villard of the Northern Pacific railroad was} anxious to continue their journey to! Montana where former President U. S. Grant was to drive the golden spike which marked completion of the line. ‘Territorial Governor N. G. Ordway was master of ceremonies, Falconer said, but his speech and that of oth- ers who followed him was interrupted by the crowd which demanded a speech from Grant. ‘The former president had not been Ysted on the program, Falconer said, but. yielded to the insistence of the crowd and made a brief address, in which he commented on the beau- ties of Dakota. There was no prearrangement as to the items which were to go into the cornerstone, Falconer said, and Gov- ernor Ordway asked that all who wished to place something in the cop- per receptacle file past the stone and inake their deposits. This, he said, ounted for the heterogeneous con- tents of the box when it was opened recently. $341,085; Valley City, $309,104; Dick- inson, $159,695, Mayville, $195,994, and Ellendale, $104,034, {tax commissioner instead of the state jauditor under Senator F.

A, who with George Aljets, Wells, Nonpartisan, ‘had introduced @ bill providing for a drastic change in the refund system and which was killed by the senate, voted against Gronvold’s bill, while Alfred Mostad. Ward Nonpartisan, swung to the I. V. A. side to give them the necessary majority for passage. Opponents of the bill held that the change would require additional '‘of- fice workers and add “red tape” to the procedure of getting refunds ‘on gasoline taxes. L. L.
