WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Under Section 122, Article V of the Con
stitution, the Legislature is empowered to
extend the right Of suffrage to women.
This question has engaged the attention of
the legislature of the Territory of Dakota,
as well as the constitutional convention of
North Dakota.
Women are citizens Their civil rights
are not inferior to those Of men, but with
regard to their political rights, they form
almost a positive exception to the general
doctrine of equality. They obey laws and
contribute taxes, and it is political justice
(and political justice always pays that
those who are subject to law and con-
tribute taxes should have voice in their
enact12ent and in the distribution Of the
taxes.
The elective franchise has been extended
and restrictions removed as men have
demonstrated their ability to exercise it,
and as the right to its possession became
apparent.
A partial recognition has been given by
granting women the right to participate in
school matters. In the exercise Of this
privilege women have demonstrated their
abi ity to discharge greater suffrage con-
sci.ntoiusly, and 10 the best interests of
the body polite and themselves
would recommend to your favorable
consideration the extension of suffrage to
women, in municipal matters at least.

GOOD ROADS.

The attention being paid to the subject
If good roads in many states, agricultural
as we'll as manufacturing, is evidence OF
it's Importance. In the development of a
state The proper building and improve
ment of highways is one of the last ques-
tions to receive consideration, though they
are of gre It Importance to all industries.
Streams and railroads are the arteries of
commerce, and public highways are the
tributaries. From the farm and the fac
iory come the articles to be transported.
With the low price that commodities often
command, it is necessary that they be
marketed as cheaply and quickly as posi-
BILE Every item of expense that can be
saved in delivering to the lines of trans
portation will augment the profit of the
producer
While the people of this state may not
now feel the need of judicious improve
ments Of highways, believe that the day
is not far distant when they will realize
that the subject should have received
earlier and more careful attention.
These improvements are often objected

Among the reports of business done by
boards IN which the state is interested is
that Of the state board of pharmacy, sub
mitted to the governor by ". S. Parker,
OF Lisbon, secretary treasurer. The mem
bers Of the board are, besides Mr.. Parker,
Il. 6. White, of Jamestown, and II. l..
Haussamen, of Grafton, Mr.. White being
president
The board held two meetings during
the year last passed and examined q
persons for registered pharmacists, II OF
which number passed and 9 were re-
jacted. Thirteen persons were granted
registrations certificate from endorse
ments from other states. Thee were in
the state, at the date Of the report, last
August, 253 registered pharmacists. A
number Of certificates have been can
celed FOR non-p payment Of dues.
A list Of pharmacists is kept by the
secretary, and through it many clerks
have been able to secure employment.
there being demand for competent
pharmacists at fair wages.
The secretary has received numerous
complaints Of violations Of the pharmacy
| law and, so far. has investigated most of
| the cases. The violators have been found
to have complied with the law. Two con-
victions for violations Of the law, how
ever, were obtained. One in November,
1898, in the case of the state VS.. Young
man. of Wheatland, the defendant being
convicted of keeping drug store with
out registered pharmacist IN charge. A
fine of $40 and costs was imposed. The
other case of the same kind was at Har-
vey, Wells county, where Frank Schmitt-
zer plead guilty to keeping drug store
without registered pharmacist. He
was fined S5 and costs.
Secretary Parker protests against CON-
plants of the violations OF the law CON-
ing to him signed in anonymous names.
He says, If the complaint is worth max
ing, it is worth genuine signature and
tue assistance you owe the public
health.'
The receipts of the board for pharmacy
renewals, fines and various other items,
for the year ending August, 1894, were
S1,O7O.32 and the total expense S435.49.
At the meeting of the pharmacy board
examinations were conducted in materia
medlca. chemistry and pharmacy. The
applicants are questioned and examined
on the Identification of drugs compound
ing of prescriptions and manufacture Of
the pharmaceutical preparations.
Registered pharmacists must notify
the board of any change in their loca-
ton.
1t appears that the regulations of the
board have been we'll lived up to-, as a
whole, and the public protected to a
large extent from the employment of lg-
norant and incompetent clerks IN drug
stores and pharmacies.

APPROPRIATIONS.

Reference has previously been made to
the demands of the people for an econom-
ical administration. This is made imper-
ative by reason of the condition OF our
finances and the inability to increase the
limit of Indebtedness. The negative vote
of the people upon the constitutional
amendment increasing the debt limit
must be accepted rs direct expression OF
their wishes regarding Indebtedness.
YOU have not only to provide for the
\ sup port of the state government and its
n institutions, but for the liquidation
of Warrants now outstanding and
unpad for want of funds. We can

Phelan's appointment.

The following dispatch to the Fargo
Argus from Bismarck throws additional
light on the appointment OF Master
Mechanic Phelan as clerk of the railroad
commission. It says:
Much antagonism was developed Mon
day night and Tuesday morning to the
appointment of Phelan as clerk of the
railroad commission. There were two
two points raised: His fitness was con.
ceded, but it was claimed that the people
would never believe that it was other
than a railroad appointment, made in
the interests of railroads and at theil
dlctation. Another party claimed that
Phelan had been "let out" by the roac

and that he would show them no parti :
allty; that his years of experience would
be OF great advantage to the com mission,
and that that was the reason for his se-
lection. His friendship for organized
labor was also an element mentioned in
his favor, and it Is said that his reslgna-
ton which Is said takes effect the 18th
lnst-Was an outgrowth of the strike.
But the fear Of what the people might
say was the strong point. Another point
was that the newspaper men had done
the party and the state great service:
that there were at least three members
OF the press who were seeking the ap-
pointment and that 1T was slap IN the
face OF these earnest workers for the
party. The question Of his republican
Ism was raised, but he was claimed an
earnest republican by some OF those who
have been most intimately associated
with him, The fact is he is not parti-
san, but is inclined to be independent In
politics. The opposition Tuesday morn
ing took active form and may result in
protest, especially from repu blican sem
ators
Mr.. Phelan called on the governor
Tuesday and assured him that his choice
as secretary of the railroad commisson
was not planned by the railroads. The
governor says that other information in
dicates that organized labor IS partlcu-
larly we'll pleased with the appointment.

A Mcintosh County Murder.

A dispatch from Ellendale states that
word has been received from Ashley,
Mcintosh county, distant about 40
miles, that Russian farmer named
Schafer, living four miles northwest of
Ashley, beat his wife almost insensible
and then threw her out of the window.
When she was discovered she was frozen
stiff and it was found her back was
broken by the fall. Schafer skipped out
and at last accounts had not been caught.
