GOODS IN BOND.

Bill Passed Allowing Shipment Thrcush
Any Part of the United States.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-An important
bin was passed by the house during.the
day, which makes universally applica-
bic the law that now permits the tran
nt Of goods in bond through certain
ports Of the United States. Under it
goods in bond can be shipped through
any portion Of the territory of the
United States to foreign ports. 1t is
principally designed to give the trans
portation companies of the United States
q share OF the transcontinental trade to
the Orient. The bill also repeats the
law Of March i, 1895, prohibiting tn.
shipment Of goods in bond to the Mexi-
can free zone. The remainder of the
day was occupied in passing the private
pension bills f~avorably- acted upon at
last Friday nights session and in Dis
trict of Columbia Legislation.

to the national republican convention,
the other later, to nominate a full state
ticket and member of congress. The
first convention must necessarily be held
at least thirty days prior to the meeting
OF the national convention, June 19. The
second convention ought to be held at q
time most convenient for all-especially
the farmers-and that time is Just before
harvest. From the 10th to the 10Th Of
July would seem to be the proper time.
The matter of apportionment will un-
doubtedly be the cause Of some strife.
1t ought to be based in each county on
the lowest vote cast in the county for
any of the leading state officers in the
last campaign. That would be good
party doctrine; but possibly this would
be considered in some sections too severe
punishment for party treachery. The
outcome will likely be a compromise, as
usual. ~

Our SPECIAL Offer.
A Liberal Offer.
Bismarck, N. D.

A Liberal Offer.
The Northwestern newspaper which is
conceded the largest circulation is the
Minneapolis Tribune. AS an all round
purveyor of information and entertaining
reading its popularity is the best proof Of
its ascendency.
What the Daily Tribune is to the city
people, the Twice-a-Week edition of the
same publication, the Farmers Tribune,
is to that great majority of the people of
the state who are too busy to read a
daily paper.
The Twice-a-Week Farmers Tribune,
is, to all intents and purposes, the farm
er's daily. 1t is a condensation of the
news for the three days preceding the
date of publication and it contains the
very latest news up to the hour of going
to press.
The Farmers Tribune does not pre-
sumo to take the place of the home
weekly, but it supplies the place just
outside Of the sphere of the home paper,
and in this capacity it is of the highest
value to a large majority of the people of
the northwest.
The Bismarck Tribune has made ar
engagements with the publishers Of The
Farmers Weekly whereby it is enabled
to make the most liberal and astonishing
offer we ever made.
If you are now a subscriber for the
Tribune we will send you The Farmers
Tribune (twice-a-week) with your paid
in-adyance renewal of subscription to
the paper. You thus get the two papers
for s125. No stronger %inducement
could be offered.
The same offer is also extended to new
subscribers.
Do not delay taking advantage Of this
offer. It will not be continued long.
You cannot afford to let this splendid
opportunity slip by. Send in your sub.
scription to the Bismarck Tribune and
get with it The Farmers Twice-a-Week
Tribune free.

In the session of the legislature in
North Dakota last winter Senator Creel
introduced a bill, proposing to regulate
marriage. It provided for the appoint
ment Of commissioners to investigate
the health and tendencies of persons
contemplating m%atrimony, and prohib-
tied the intermarrage of persons affect
ed with certain diseases. The bill at
tracted consideration, some ridicule
and much discussion, and finally failed.
Today q similar bill is pending in the
Colorado legislature, and it is the sub
ject of much earnest discussion, as time
and conditions grow ripper for deliber-
ate consideration of the important topic.
The st. Paul Dispatch, in speaking of
the measure says:
The bill before the Colorado legisla-
ture, which is attracting the country's
attention and to a large degree the coun-
try's chat, is not merely a piece with
populistic Western" legislation. It is
q result OF theory which is approved by
the medical profession everywhere and
conditioned by certain phases of Colorado
living, which, if neglected, would cause a
state population of invalids and incapa-
bles.
The legislation pending will place mar
Fiage at the viii of the state, not of in
diViduals. Before the issuance of any
marriage license, all applicants must go
before an examining board where, on
their fitness or unfitness as determined
Lxy ~tx,e.oaf nva ~ "la-1 L. AL
Issuing or Withholding of the license. A
board OF examining physicians of differ
emit schools is to be constituted in each
county.
The condition of the population in
ling legislation quite as positively as do
marriage of the consumptiVe class can
not result in n good to a states peo-
people, and the state with all righteous
ness is more concerned with the future
welfare of its citizens than in the indi-
Fidual happiness of today. 1t is selfish
ness which stamps weakness upon pos
terity, and it is only state selfshness
which can prevent this transmission OF
the ills OF today's living; at least. until
seH-abnegation becomes a more popular
virtue than it is today. It is not neces-
sary to discuss how hardly this legisla-
ton will press upon personal pleasures.
The state is above the individual and
must seek the welfare of its citizens of
tomorrow. +
The experiment in Colorado will be
watched with interest, if this bill becomes
law, and its chances are excellent
Whether the experiment can or will sue,
9 is theory until Colorado gives the
trial.
