will They be Confirmed:
The Insane asylum board is prob ably
the most important in the list. County
Commissioner Buchanan and Fred
Clark are new members from Stutsman
county. Knut- Thompson is county
treasurer of Griggs county. It was un
derstood and promised that Fred Fan
cher should remain on the board, but to
the surprise of his friends he does not
appear on tho list. DR.. Porter is a
practicins physician at Bismarck. Mr..
Hubbard is in Mexico, and is the only
cd member retained on the board. The
appointments we're made without con-
sultation with Representatives. Lutz or
Milsted, or Senator Fuller, although
these gentlemen were voluntarily in
formed by the governor that he would
consult with them before deciding on
the names. This is not the first occasion
of such neglect of the usual courtesy in
these matters. But the same is true in
the appointment of several other boards.
The constitution provides that these
boards shall be appointed with tine
advice and consent Of the senators, and
such having been ignored there is little
doubt but that the confrnations will be
with held. If this is done it will not be
from any personal objection to the mem
bers of the boards, but to inform the
governor that we are not living IN Rus
sia, under an autocratic government.
On the pententiary board Editor A.
NJ. Packard of the Mandan Times. the
opponent of Mr.. Tuttle of the Daily
Pioneer, is given place. All the mem
bers of this board are new officials. In
the state Fair board several Of the old
members are retained. Thurston, one
of the new members, is the English cat
tie man OF the Mouse river, an ardent
supporter Of the governor at the Fargo
convention and Hansbrough's best
advocate. The two Normal schools
are but just located, at Mayville and
Valley City, and are without appropria-
GlODS. Lilo OOllloIS l1Oulo anu tACiUeItlS
of Science are in the same inchoat con-
dltion--nothing but locations, and hon
orary positions on boards of administra-
ton, with no business to administer.
If the senate does not confirm the
nominations, after the adjournment of
the legislature the governor can reap
point the boards, or make new appoint
ments throughout, as he pleases. The
boards so appointed would hold until
the next session of the legislature Jan
uary 1891.
The superintendent of public instruc-
ton was not appointed: neither was a
new public examiner, but it is stated
that Mr.. Hayden of Fargo, will be the
latter when it is deemed time to swap
off Johnny Percival OF Devils Lake.

in the senate today. The Lutz bill,
