convention IUlS morning. AL q pIcFI-
Gus meeting there was a majority IN
favor of the plan, but at the morning
session the opponents gained the
victory, and it is expected that
the committee will report against
the proposition. Judge Garland, chair
man of the Judiciary committee. has
been pleading in opposition, and his
Ideas have prevailed. The committee
has agreed on dividing the state into
six judicial districts, and favors the eS-
Establishment of an appellate court, the
judges of which shall be elected, and
which snail be separate and distinct
from the regular district court. The
question of Judges is already Being dis
cussed in detail. and candidates for
judicial hOnorS are numerous. Judge
Garland is one OF the faY0riteS. The
only obstacle between him and success
being the large Republican majority in
the state. The report that John Miller
has been in the city working for the
nomination for governor on the RepuD-
lican ticket, is untrue, and his friends
feel that some one DESTROYS of defeat
ing him is inspiring the reports.
He has been expected during
the past few days, but has

been the leading candidate for the gov
ernorship, is in the Red river valley and
is evidently aware of the strong cOmbi-
nation that some are trying to form
against him. The Farmers alliance
leaders are cutting no small figure in
the contest. and President Fancher, OF
the constitutional convention. is in the
field for one of the prominent officers.
Mayor Cashel, Of Grafton, who for sew
eral months has been pronounced can
didate for state treasurer, arrived
this morning with d large deIega-
ton of supporters and is keeping
an eye on the band wagon. The Sena-
tOrial skirmish continues with eX-goV-
errors OrdWay and Pierce in the lead,
the only variations being the numerous
rumOrS OF new combinations and deals,
some of which picture Ordway as
crowded out. others giving positive
assurances that Pierce will be defeated,
and none of which are worthy of SerI-
GUS consideration. The question of
taxation still holds the fort. a
proposition was submitted by
Bartlett, OF GTiggs. taxing by uniform
rule all moneys, credits and invest
ments in bonds, stocks, joint stock com
panies or otherwise. and all personal
property according to its true value in
money, but improvements and cUltiva-
ton of the soil shall not be considered
in arriving at the cash value of lands,
but all lands of the same quality and
kind shall bear equal taxation. Scott,

STRIKES AT THE SECRET SESSIONS
Of the senate by proposing that
in acting on executive nOmina
tons the senate shall set
with open doors. and in confirming or
rejecting the nominations of the gov
ernOr the vote shall be taken by yeas
and nays. Parsons, of Morton, proposes
to abolish the labor black list by pro-
viding any citizen of the state shall be
free to obtain employment wherever
possible. and any person or corpora
ton keeping a blacklist or inter-
fering with this right shall be deemed
guilty of conspiracy against the
welfare of the state and be punishable
for felony. Articles were introduced
as follows: Prohibiting the formation
of trusts or combines to control the
price of any product, and providing for
the fOrfeituTes of charters and fran
chiSes OF companies violating the pro-
vision; also providing that no act Of the
legislature shall take effect until the
first day of July next after its passage;
establishing boards of arbitration to de-
eide differences between corporations
and employees. The joint commission
on the division of property between the
the states of North and South Dakota
met again to-day, but is still long way
from an agreement as to the basis of
division. E. W. Caldwell. of the South
Dakota commission, who yesterday
stated that North Dakota had received
S143.000 and South Dakota $1,000
of money for permanent improve
ments in public buildings outside of the
bonded indebtedness. to-day aeknowl-
edges that he was mistaken, and that
the difference in favor of North Dakota
is only $4,000. MIR. Purcell, of North
Dakota. produces figures to show that
instead of the balance being in favor of
the North, South Dakota had received
over 800, 900, and North Dakota SCI. 900.
thus showing that the South has
received nearly 900 more than
the North. These are simply
illustrations of the wide discrepancies
existing, and the vast difference be-
tween the Northern and Southern fig
ureS. 1t will be some time before the
Joint commission will agree. as an
agreement cannot be reached without
majority of each commission. The conf
mittee on legislative appointment is
embarrassed by the delay Of the
convention in settling the question
whether the legislative power shall rest
with one or two bodies and deciding
upon the number to be elected. The
committee met this evening and adj
jOurned without action. The young
Republicans in the city have held
meeting for the organization of the
Young Republican League of North
Dakota. At their primary meeting they
elected j. B. Winman, of Grand Forks.
as temporary president, and Fred
Denny. of Trail, as temporary seere-
tary. An informal discussion was held
among the members present relative
to the complete organization of the
young Republicans of North Dakota.
the object being to secure to the young
men of the new state who comprise the
active workers of the party, liberal
RECOGNITION IN THE COUNCILS
and conventions of the party. The gen.
eral opinion among the members was
to the effect that this is the year IN Da-
kota politics when the colonies must
give place to the kids. The following
committees were appointed:
