BISMARCK, Oak, Jan. 23-There was a
lively fight in the house today over the re-
port of the committee on the bill provid-
ing for the holding of constitutional
convention for North Dakota. at Fargo,

bill pass, but the towns which are
aspirants for the location of the
convention made vigorous fight and pre-

which lasted over an hour. the matter was

parallel. the point in favor of this being

should not dictate to North Dakota where
the convention should be held. Some fear
that the fight over the location will delay
the passage of the bill until the last days
