Kelley issued his statement after F. H. Waldo, manager of the North- | Western Bell Telephone company jhere, had reporte:t that the cable jhad been damaged several times re- cently, apparently by bullets. Wa said he believed boys who road bridge have either carelessly or maliciously punctured the trunk cable, with the result that some of | the wires have been severed. Some- times water enters the cable, caus- ing short circuits and paralyzing telephone communication between the | two cities, Waldo said. { “Fortunately,” he said, “only a! small amount of service has been in- | terrupted by the damage, due to! prompt clearing of the trouble and the general absence of wet weather. It is entirely possible for such in-| jury to result in a complete failure |of the facilities between the two cities and to hamper long distance service to points west of Mandan, if rain should enter the holes made in the lead cable. Some cases have caused considerable inconvenience to ips telep! ‘phpne patrons affected and | also have’ put the telephone com- |pany to unnecessary expense.” $00 LINE ENJOINS | COUNTY TREASURERS IN FIGHT ON TAXES Get Federal Court Order Barring Debt From Being Listed | as Delinquent | Fargo, Sept. 16—(P)—A restrain- ing order enjoining county treasurers ‘om listing as delinquent unpaid § assessed against the Soo Line railway in 1931, was issued in U. 8S. district court here Thursday on the motion of John F. Sullivan, Mandan attorney, and counsel for the Soo, Line. The order forbids the turning of! the taxes over to sheriffs for oo lection as provided by North Dakota! statute, if such taxes are unpaid by y | Sept. 15. The order was wired to county Treasurers and ‘county auditors, co-| defendants in the order, in the 32] North Dakota counties where the Soo | Line operates, The state board of equalization ts named, too, in the order being re-: strained from further pressing col- lection of the taxes levied against the railroad. A motion to show cause why an injunction should not be issued en- joining the equalization board and the several counties from further acting to collect the tax was also granted by Judge Andrew Miller. The defendants were ordered to appear in federal court here Sept. 24 at 10 a. m., to present their argu- ments on the second order. The restraining order is effective on the remaining 25 per cent of t: es levied in 193t against the Soo Line. In March the railway began suit in U. S. court protesting payment of the $610,000 tax levied against it. | It contended its properties were overvalued by the state board of equalization and demanded a 25-per- cent reduction, | In its suit the railway proposed | payment of 75 per cent of the as- sessment, terming such a tax equit- able and fair.

For the expected redoubling of |Party endeavors on both sides the | Maine election returns are largely re- | sponsible. Rejoicing Democrats, | thinking that in their Maine victory they sense a distinct advantage every- where, are encouraged to press every opportunity to the utmost. Surprised Republicans have been called upon by President Hoover himself to rally for a “hard fight.” No one can guess at this stage! whether sparks from the roaring fur- naces of organized party activity will start any conflagration among the voters themselves. Word has come to party leaders from many sections that a large body of the people is silent and apathetic. In general, neither campaign contri- butions nor attendance at political meetings show an average high enough to indicate intense popular interest. Yet in Maine the vote was very heavy, which may mean that the public is thinking and meaning to act, even if it is not talking. For the moment, most of the out- ward activity is on the part of the Democrats. Governor Roosevelt, speeding toward the west coast, is of both parties, as he turns from the ~ jold subjects of the general depression jand prohibition to speak about farm |relief, power and the railroads. It is be Heath ot ee Democrats to consoli- if possible, enough western prepa Bt win regardless of what the east may do.

Park for Pincnickers Announcement that the Bismarck park board is prepared to improve Pioneer Park, providing increased use of the park is made this fall, was made Friday by S. W. Corwin, mem- ber of the board. Pioneer Park, along the Missouri river road about one mile north of the city, is equipped particularly for | pienickers, Corwin said. The park has tables enough to ac- commodate 100 picnickers, in addi- tion to toilets for men and women| ‘and a well with “exceptionally-good” | water. Should local residents demonstrate a demand for further picnic fixtures} | in the park, including more tables and fire places, the park board is ready to furnish them; Corwin said.
