The prospects are that the constitutions

The prospects are that the constitutional
convention will conclude its labors by
August 5. The North Dakota portion of
the Division committee are delaying work
as far as possible in order to tire out the
members from South Dakota aud thereby
probably secure point or two in tn cir
favor in settlement. The report of the
legislative district sas confirmed, which
makes forty-ope Legislative districts and
forty-five senators. the latter being the
limit provided by the constitution. Hand
county is district by itself with one
senator and two representatives.
