The former claims to be under the draft age while the latter claims to be past 31 years. They will be given an op- portunity of establishing their age claims when their cases come up next month. JUDGE ROBINSON CALLS NEW GRAIN GRADING LAW FAKE North Dakota's new grain grading act is "a long, ill-constructed un- grammatical, multifarious hodgepodge document," declares Associate Jus- tice J. E. Robinson, in dissenting from the opinion of the supreme court in the test suit decided reoently in fa- vor of the state. While the other four justices concur in the opinion of the court written by Chief Justice Bruce. Justice Robinson, in his indi- vidual opinion dissents most vigor- ously. . "Without any consideration, says the big leaguer, "the bill was rushed through toward the close of the last session of the legislature. It was not read at length as required by the constitution. Obviously* the _ subject of the act is not expressed in its title, and it does contain more than one subject. "If we may amend the title by a reference to the body of the act, con- trary to the decision of this court in N. D. 514, we may as well say it should be entitled'thus: "An act to create a huge grafting system and to deny farmers the right to sell their grains without paying to some. in- spector an unknown and unlimited graft on each and every load.'" "In marketing a load of grain, the farmer has no time to adjust the graft. He must pay whatever is de- manded, though it be a gross impo- sition. The rates are to be fixed by those who profit by the graft. The farmer who hauls his grain to market may have to haul it home again, as he has no guarantee of finding a deputy inspector." "The .graft," states the justice, is such a sum as may be fixed by the chief inspector and his deputies with- out consulting any seller of grain. Denial of Rights. The denial of the right to purchase is a denial of the right to sell, says Judge Robinson; and is contrary to guaranteeing every citizen the right to acquire or dispose of . property. "The grower of grain is not a chump—ne doesn't need a guardian," declares Judge Robinson. "The act doesn't limit the graft. The charge may be ten cents or a dollar." The Track Buyer. "The elimination of the track buy- er," says the judge, "does away with LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE OF MORTGAGE SALE BY AD- VERTISEMENT.

An accident happened at ' Pierce when a motorcycle came pretty near putting an automobile out of commis­sion. R. H. Hutchinson of Amidon was riding the motorcycle and Frank Byers was operating the car when the accident happened. Hutchinson was hitting a lively clip and was unable to guide his machine to the right when a collision occurred. The front part of the car was badly dam­aged but the motorcycle camejthrough with only a scratch.. Hutchinson was badly shaken up but was able tb hop on the wheel and return home. Mr. Byers was not injured.

Saturday of last week at the Con­gregational parsonage, in Killdeer, Miss Mabel Thorson and Mr. Clifford Horseman were united in marriage by Rev. George Atkinson. M. W. Power and Miss Minnie Tabery at­tended Mr. and Mrs. Horseman. Im­mediately after the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. Horseman left via stage for Dickinson where they took a train to Wisconsin and other eastern points to spend their honeymoon. Mr. Horse­man is a plumber and has been en­gaged in installing heating plants in Killdeer and Dunn Center. He has a claim near Trotter, N. D., where they will go to housekeeping.

Alexander Friedt of Mott and Joseph Rettinger of New England were arrested last week for alleged violations of the act of May 18, 1917, failure to register, and were ar­raigned before U. S. Commissioner E. S. Dunn at Regent last Thursday. They entered pleas of not guilty and were released on $500 bail for their appearance at ttie Bismarck term of United States court. The former claims to be under the draft age while the latter claims to be past 31 years. They will be given an op­portunity of establishing their age claims when their cases come up next month.

JUDGE ROBINSON CALLS NEW GRAIN GRADING LAW FAKE

North Dakota's new grain grading act is "a long, ill-constructed un-grammatical, multifarious hodgepodge document," declares Associate Jus­tice J. E. Robinson, in dissenting from the opinion of the supreme court in the test suit decided reoently in fa­vor of the state. While the other four justices concur in the opinion of the court written by Chief Justice Bruce. Justice Robinson, in his indi­vidual opinion dissents most vigor­ously. .

"Without any consideration, says the big leaguer, "the bill was rushed through toward the close of the last session of the legislature. It was not read at length as required by the constitution. Obviously* the _ subject of the act is not expressed in its title, and it does contain more than one subject.

"If we may amend the title by a reference to the body of the act, con­trary to the decision of this court in N. D. 514, we may as well say it should be entitled'thus: "An act to create a huge grafting system and to deny farmers the right to sell their grains without paying to some. in­spector an unknown and unlimited graft on each and every load.'"

"In marketing a load of grain, the farmer has no time to adjust the graft. He must pay whatever is de­manded, though it be a gross impo­sition. The rates are to be fixed by those who profit by the graft. The farmer who hauls his grain to market may have to haul it home again, as he has no guarantee of finding a deputy inspector."

"The .graft," states the justice, is such a sum as may be fixed by the chief inspector and his deputies with­out consulting any seller of grain.

Denial of Rights. The denial of the right to purchase

is a denial of the right to sell, says Judge Robinson; and is contrary to guaranteeing every citizen the right to acquire or dispose of . property.

"The grower of grain is not a chump—ne doesn't need a guardian," declares Judge Robinson. "The act doesn't limit the graft. The charge may be ten cents or a dollar."

The Track Buyer. "The elimination of the track buy­

er," says the judge, "does away with
