of the bond as it was only $4,000
and the amounts were much more. He
moved the bond be made $4,000 which
motion passed.
Mr.. BEARDSLEY moved that when
the committee rise it be reported back
with the recommendations that the bill
do not pass.
Mr.. OLIVER moved to amend, that
when the bill was reported back it be
that the bill do pass.
Mr.. BROOKE said that he was of the
opinion that when the members returned
to their constituents there would. be a
general shaking up if the bill was
passed and that was what caused much
of the opposition to this bill. He said
that many were haunted by the belief
that their chances for reelection would
be seriously impaired. He reviewed the
past of the nation of America. He said
the world is now looking to North Da-
kota as the foreign countries
once looked on the struggle
of America for freedom and liberty. II
say that we have demonstrated to all
nations that we are a power in war, now
let us demonstrate that we are a power
in peace. I want to see North Dakota
there standing breast high with her
thousands of rolling waves of wheat. I
do not want the young people of this
state to say to NE, you were one who de-
prived me If going to and seeing the pro-
ducts Of my own state, Of seeing it dis
played among the products of nations. I
| want to go on record as in favor of that
bill"
Mr.. Brown: I am a Dakotan and have
lived in her borders for twenty years. I
am proud of my state. I came into this
house representing the seventh district
with no strings on me. And I don't
want you to tell me that a state that can
raise 65,000,00O bushels of wheat should
have a second hand show at Chicago.
I am heartily in favor of'this measure.
MI. Kearney said he was not trying to
make a political record, but if this
measure passed, he wanted it understood
that the republican party would be re-
sponsible for it. Republicans: We will
take the credit.)
+ Mr. Lutz did not believe this was a
political measure and he had patriotism
enough to not see the Worlds Fair a
failure. What if all the states should
not appropriate? This is not a period of
war when we can show our patriotism
by dying for u country. But we can
show it just as we'll by living for it. He
thought thousands of poor working
men would through the exhibits made
at the fair find good homes in North
Dakota, where they could build up a
home for their good wife and children,
and be free Americans, blessed by the
pure freedom and ozone of North Dako-
ia. (Applause)
Mr.. Kearney compared the amount of
North Dakota's appropriation with New
York and said we didn't want any more.
He thought the idea of a school exhibit
was sheer nonsense. I don't wish to be
personal, but look at the board we have
got to spend this money. Look at the
machine politicians who have charge
of this money, not a farmer among them.
Mr.. Yegen: North Dakota last year
raised enough wheat last year to fill box
cars enough to reach around North Da-
kota. Now hadn't we better take
enough wheat out for a door and 20 to
Chicago.
Mr.. Holritz thought it would be better
not to be there at all than not to be
properly represented. He didn't want
North Dakota to have a little shack be.
side mansions I don't want Il mansion
for North Dakota but a good respectable
building and display that we will not
wish to hide our face from. Applause.
At 4:30 the speaker signed house bill
No. 5.
Mr.. Brown wanted to say for the bene-
fit of Mr.. Kearney that the people of
North Dakota read and when they see q
good account of North Dakota's exhibit
they will be proud of it.
Mr.. Oliver: I want a rising vote to
see if the members will vote for the bill
without the amendments or if they will
not vote for it with an amenment. The
vote was a tie and the chairman, Mr..
Gill, voted aye, so the motion passed.
MI. BROOKE moved that when com
mittee rise, that it report senate bill No.
3 back, with a recommendation that it
pass without amendment, which motion
prevailed.
Mr.. Kearney attempted to again
speak of the merits of not passing the
bill, when the point of order was raised
and the committee rose and on motion
the report Of the committee was
adopted.
The bill was read the third time and
