Meanwhile, the committee had be- fore it what purported to be a diary of Arthur P. Homer, marine archi- tect, containing supposed chronicles of meeting of naval officials with President Roosevelt and of confer- ences of Ship Building company of- ficers seeking naval contracts. Afterward, the diary asserted, there was an equal division among three ship building companies of six de- stroyer construction jobs. Homer, who was pronounced by his Physicians as too ill to testify, issued @ statement saying he never attempt- ed to “use influence” nor “ever Claimed to have influence” in such matters. “ The diary was read by F. W. La- Touche, committee investigator, who said he had been informed that Ho- mer had claimed friendship with President Roosevelt and boasted that he, once engaged in the lobster busi- with the chief executive. House Committee to , Hear Liquor Proposals North Dakota's legislators Friday will grapple with the liquor question for the first time this session, when hearings on various proposals get un- der way at a meeting of the house temperance committee. Headed by Paul A. Sand of Pierce, chairman, committee members will begin the first of what is planned to be a series of meetings at which vari- ous liquor bills will be discussed. Sand said he was contemplating a series of open meetings at which the problem would be sired, with a view to determining a fundamental bill which would meet with general ap- proval. : He expressed the belief that “the Tight kind of liquor bill probably ‘would meet with not only the approval of the legislature by a two-thirds vote, but with that of the public.” At least one liquor bill is being pre- pared, following in some measure the ‘Washington state law of liquor stores. Sand said he believed the “most ef- fective policy in determining the right type of bill” would be followed by Joint meetings of educational, appro- priations, taxes and tax laws and tem- perance committees of both houses at various times. 7 to Face Charge of Auction Sale Fraud Minot, N.

Sixty- two years ago the Bismarck Tribune ‘was born, July 11, 1873. This news- Paper, which we have at hand, is yellow and torn, with long strips of transparent paper holding it together. It has been read and reread at inter- vals during the years and it offers many reminders to us who are still here today. The editorial follows: Introduction “With this issue is commenced the Publication of the Bismarck Tribune, the first paper on the Missouri River above Yankton and the first in Da- kota on the line of the N. P. R. R. It is printed on @ Taylor Cylinder Press and from an office specially fitted out for the publication of a daily as soon as Bismarck is large enough to sustain one. The pub- Ushers will not spare the expense necessary to make their paper valu- able through its devotion to local interests, for its news and choice selections of miscellaneous matter. They. have made a large investment in their office; have turned their parties, but they ask and expect liberal patronage from all parties in- foley in the prosperity of wn, “They make no special promises except to publish @ live paper and give at all times their best efforts towards building up the town... 5000 ocpies of this issue will be printed and it will be found speci- ally valuable for sending abroad. 5000 copies of this issued will be found at the office neatly done up in ‘wrappers, ready for mailing ... The ‘Tribune will be sent to any address at $2.50 per year in advance. Persons receiving this copy are invited to be- come sul +. Those who have friends they wish to interest in Bis- marck can do no better than to send them the Tribune.” The first issue tells us that the first train into Bismarck was June 7, 1873. 1000 tons of freight was re- ceived at the Bismarck station the first week the office was opened, on which the freight was $22,000. In the notes which we have, we find that this first train came on Saturday. On Sunday a mixed train of passen- ger and freight cars arrived which brought the first women to Bismarck over the N. P. Mary, Nellie, Kitty and Maggie. Mary became Mrs. Charles Kupitz, Nellie married Mr. C. W. Freede, Kitty married Mr. Charles Lewis, and Maggie, John Yegen. They were all good men and women who have long since crossed the bar. This train also brought the press and material for the Bismarck Trib- une and much more freight, for which we were all very thankful. Our flour, coffee, and sugar were getting low. We had frozen potatoes all winter from Fort Lincoln at 10c a Pound. But by this time they were not very good. Some further items of interest from this paper follow: “Bear's Ear, & noble red man, looked over the presses in the Bis- mack Tribune office today with evi- dent interest. “About 400 tons of goods for the Indians have been received at Bis- marck since the opening of the N. P. R. R. to the Missouri river. “The Tribune building, 22x30, was commenced Wednesday morning; by Saturday completely enclosed, win- dows, doors, and floors in and the office including a Taylor Cylinder Press and Quarter Medium Gordon Jobber, set up ready for business and @ half column of type for the paper set. “Tuesday morning last week (June Congregational church building 30x40. Friday it was finished, including seat- ing. Sunday service was held and on Monday a school was opened by Mrs, Slaughter in the church build- ing. The building was put up by Rev. 'H. N. Gates, the Congregational mis- sionary, without expense to the peo- ple of Bismarck. “A pleasant party was had at the IMPROVED GREATLY More Power, Greater Braking, Advances in Engine and Cha Announced Improved commercial car models having more power, higher torque or pulling ability, greatly increased ef- ficiency, and numerous improvements in engine and chassis, have been an- nounced by the Chevrolet Motor com- pany. In addition to the %4-ton trucks of 112-inch wheelbase and the 1% ton trucks of either 131-inch or 157-inch' wheelbase, Chevrolet this year fea- tures a new unit, the Standard sedan delivery, intended for the fast dis- Patch of light merchandise.

Prices remain at) the low levels established last year, when Chevrolet led the industry in truck registrations. The chassis prices, according to the Chevrolet announce- ment, are the lowest in the world, The Chrevolet models for 1935 re- tain the general characteristics of the Previous line in layout and design. Mechanically, however, they incor- porate many refinements and added features. Many Motor Changes Changes in the engines include improved spark advance control, heavier crankshaft with improved counterweighting and harmonic bal- ancer, selective balancing of rotat- ing parts, high pressure oil stream lubrication to connecting rod bear-| ings, increased oil pump: capacity, electro-plated pistons, greater water Pump capacity, an improved cylinder- head temperature distribution. Brakes and braking have been Greatly increased in efficiency and ease of operation, now possessing such features as lighter pedal pressure, higher coefficient of friction in the lining, limited articulation of brake shoes, and increased life of linings. Improvements in manifolding, car- buretion, timing and valves, through the adoption of the Chevrolet Blue Flame design of the Master engine for this year’s truck engine, has re- sulted in a horsepower capacity of 70 in the 1935 trucks, a. gain of 10 horsepower over last year. A new system of lubrication serves the crank-pin bearings of the con- necting rods. The oil pump forces high-pressure jets of oil to flow con- stantly from six nozzles, one in each oil trough, directed upward so that the streams are in the paths of the connecting rod dippers as they ap- proach and pass bottom dead cen- ter. These dippers thus receive oil during a prolonged period of each revolution. Preven:; Oil Dilution Oil dilution is prevented by a pat- ented crankcase ventilator which dis- charges gasoline fumes and vapors into the air stream underneath the 30, 1873) ground was broken for the|Oll pan. In the %-ton model, another oper- ation is procured through the adop- tion of a new waved driven plate that eliminates chatter even at light driv- ing load applications (as when the clutch is only partly released parking maneuvers.) Revisions of springing have been made in the various models to pro- vide for a wide variation of the load, and for greater strength. Capitol Hotel on the 4th. Bismarck did not celebrate, but the 4th was ‘@ lively day here.” Our own notes show that this party was very gay, although it was ex- tremely rough. Even the hotel was, not without its pioneer spirit, sturdy and unfinished. The second floor had not yet been partitioned off, and the dance was held there. The floor was rough boards. The seats were Planks nailed on kegs. White satin and swallow tails were worn. One lady ruined her lovely gown when the swansdown trimming caught on the slivers and nails.

D. Jan. 31, 1935. Editor, Tribune: Having heard of the controversy going on at the Capitol I am writing a few thoughts. Not all can get what they want, and the most care- fully laid plans sometimes miscarry. The Democrats not being so prac- ticed in politics did not inquire care- fully enough as to the eligibilty of their candidate. The forces immediately threw a monkey wrench into the state machinery with pretty far reaching results. Isn't it better to turn the attention from People now and to conditions. Isn’t it better to compromise with sane judgment, and just go ahead with what you have got, if the set-up isn’t faultless why not limit the powers; like for instance political appoint- ments and leave all such as they are now. There are many good Demo- jcrats in this state as in all others. jOne of your best trusted and most jinfluential citizen of Ecklund town- |ship, one of the earlist settlers, never Pretended to be anything but Dem- ocratic in the midst of Republican voters and he was also voted into office time and again by these Re- publicans. If the money for schools is insufficient let the teachers finish their contracts and close the schools for a time but please do not make any schools into insane asylums. Lease them to some educators to open schools on a commercial basis, giving revenue to the state. And for the good of those who can keep up let us have some laws about weeds. It really should be a misdemeanor to let Russian thistle |grow over five inches. It should be jplowed under while green. Now that you have voted these men into office and into the legisla- ture it is due to you that they make some omproved provisions for the state and its people, join forces at once in remembrance of the home folks. At this time it is better for the State to take sides with the national government, Politics are out of date, A VOTER. ——— NOTK OF FORECLOSURE oF LIEN Notice is hereby given that on or about the 3ist day of May 1931 Fred Nelson of Baldwin, owner of a sorrel colt delivered. said colt to Thomas Gallagher to keep in pasture for the [agreed price of $1.50 per month for summer months, and the sum of $3.00 inter months.
