Mr.. BROOKE asked Mr.. Gill to stat
whether, had his motion to adjourn car
ried, "the bill would have been here to
morrow" To which the urbane agricuI
turist from the banks of the Red, having il
mind that sufficient unto the day is til,
take care of ITSELF"
Near the wind-up of the contest Mr.. Gil
moved to strike out the word white
from the authorship line of the bill, anc
substitute the word "LOOmis' in lieu there
OF; and the young gentleman from Barnes
being between the devil and the deep sea
OF pro and contra petions from his town
seconded the motion.
Finally, like all the things of earth, the
prohibition razzle-dazzle came to an end
the crowd of visitors departed, and the leg.
lglatlve mill began to grind on a less sen
sational grist.
The next bill considered was house bill
liz, authorizing the bonding of civil town
ships for the sinking of artesian wells.
MI. Burke thought that, while the prohl-
bltion law prevailed, no obstacle should be
thrown in the way of getting a sufficient
supply Of water.
Messrs. Oliver, Peabody, McCulloch and
Richie spoke for the bill, and Mr.. kearney
did the %antagOnizer act.
The bill passed.
House bill 225-the revenue bill-then
came up. A goodly portion of its viscera
had been extracted in a previous smash-uu
in committee of the whole. Even its for
mer friends refused to recognize it in its
dep!orable plight; and so, after a few more
kicks and cuffs had been administered, and
after MeSSrS. Gill, Burton, Douglas. Daily,
Williams, McCulloch. Beardsley, Lamb and
Brown had debated it, the bill was knocked
out. 1t had a majority, but not the consti-
'u Mr.. oG IH{HEisy o. BY an uman mne e consent
presented the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, 1t is evident to every student
OF agricultural industry that, in order to
keep pace with the older and more deyel-
oped countries of the world in the strife for
profitable markets for products, this great
nation must seek to improve the expanse
OF its foreign trade; and
which the state of North Dakota has the
distinction of forming nc small part, is
pre-eminently an agricultural, producing
section, raising annually many millions
more bushels of breadstuffs than it con.
Sumes; and
WHEREAS, The Latin-American repub.
lies of South and Central America contain
featured cereals, offering at once a marke,
equal to o%ne-fourth of the whole United
States; and
WHEREAS, 1t must be acknowledged b,
the intelligent observer that great benefits
would Immediately accrue were these mar
kets opened to our products; therefore
be it
Rcsolvcd, That the Second Legislative
Assembly of the State of North Dakota
most heartily endorses the reciprOclt,
policy of that far-seeing, fearless. progres
slve and eminently grand American states
man, the Hon. James G. Blaine, believing
that the estabtablishment of his policy O
reciprocity and international good feeling
betWeen the United States and these
southern republics would materially assist
in making this country the market of the
world, greatly enhance the value of thu
labor and products of the farmers of the
state OF North Dakota and the northwest
and ultimately aid in the maintenance O
our vast American manufacturing In
tereStS.
Mr.. LUTZ: II thought it would come t.
this. 1t is good democratic doctrine; but i
has the wrong name and l shall therefore
have to vote against it."
The resolutions were adopted; and OF
motion of Mr.. Holritz, the house ad
journed.
