Roberts Says the Bill Is Unconsti-
tutiOnal, and Peterson Says
Roberts Makes Him
Very Tired.

The Hurd bill, to place the state oil in
srectorshlp on salary basis, passed the
rouse yesterday morning Considera bIe
not air was wasted for and against the
measure, the arguments on both sides
heing the same as were used on previous
occasions. The vote was 81 to a.
The opponents to the bill brought up
the objection that it was unconstitutional
and should be referred back to the jul
dietary committee Roberts. Stephen
son and Dobbin were among those VINO
urged this theory. But ]. A Peterson,
who is an attorney as well, took a de-
cidedly different view, and in his speech
1avoring the bills passage, said:
1T makes me tired to hear lawyers
get up here and say that this bill is I'M
constitutional; if they can think o; no
ether grounds than that on which to base
their objections to the measure, think
they might as well quit.
Mr.. Hurd made no further speech for
his bill, but after discussion had closed
demanded a house call to determine the
absentees. These were Sherman S.
Smith, of Hennepin; Sid B. Barteau, of
Gcodhue; Warner Hemstead and a. f.
Ferris, of Crow Wing; j. c. Pope, Kan
abec; Thomas NJ. Pugh, of st. Louis. Mr..
Roberts, of Hennepin, asked to be eX-
cused from voting on the bill.

the upper body And yet there are some
who believe that it will pass with very
significant amendment attached. 1t has
been proposed to amend the bill to make
it effective two years hence, so as not
to bring the present oil inspector under
its regulations. This method will OF
course meet with strenuous opposition By

The bill to repeal the law permitting
the practice of osteopathy in the state
will kick up quite a rumpus among the
osteopaths of whom there are a number
practicing in the state, and an institu-
ton at Fargo devoted to the science oe
osteopathy. The circumstances of the
original permission granted by the legiS-
lattve assembly in this state for the prac-
tice of this profession were peculiar.
The sentiment for the bill was worked
among the members by Mrs. o. ]. de
Lendrecie, wife of the wealthy dry goods
merchant of Fargo, who claimed to have
been materially benefited by osteopathic
treatment She made it her object to
secure the introduction of the science in
this state and had a measure nted
to the legislative assembly to this end.
Permission was accorded her to address
the assembly OIL the SUBJECT, something.
that has not been done before in this
state. Opponents of the bill said she
hypnotized the assembly. At any rate
she secured the passage and approval of
the bill and it became a law. Under its
provisions many osteopaths have located
at various parts of the state and are
practicing. The regular medical profess
sion pooh-poohs osteopathy and will prob
ably favor the hill introduced to wipe it
out as branch Of the medical proce
sion.

FAVOR HILLMOND BILL.
Primary Election LAW May Be Made
Applicable to Whole state.

The committee on elections met yes err
day and decided to make a favorable re-
port on the Hillmond bill to extend the
primary election law through out the
state. Their report will contain a recon-
mendation that the bill be postponed fiji
teen days for final action.
While there is considerable favorable
sentiment in both houses for this bill,
which means that the state at large
presents some strong support for it,
there is also a great deal of adverse
feeling. The most hal monious view
seems to be that unless the I'll can be
made to bring about a law that will
apply to every county in the state, it
will not pass. The reason for this Is
that under such a law the position of
congressman should be as important
as any and this officer could not be
made subject to the law unless it was
general; some counties in his district
would be nominating him in conventions,
while others would have the primary
election law. In a district as large
as the present Sixth it would perhaps
be difficult to apply such law unless
1t was distinctly understood before the
bill came up that it is to be general.
The Fifth district is the only one in
the state now where such a law could
work if it was not general, for that dis
trict comprises but one county, Henne-
pin.

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of Famous Physician.

Advice of Il Famous F4ySIcldns
First and foremost, REST.
Take care of yourself. Your already
weakened nerves want rest, and must
have it. If the attack is severe, go to
bed and remain there. More fatalities
result from the neglect of this precau-
tion than from any other cause.
Eat sparingly. Your digestive organs
are in no condition to take care of large
quantities of food.
Drink plenty of pure, cold water It
allays the fever, stimulates the kidneys
TO action and opens up the pores of the
skin. Keep the bowels open with Dr.
Miles Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of DR.. Miles Nerv:ne
per day, and if you cannot sleep take an
extra dose at bedtime. To further con-
troll the fever, and to overcome the pc
culiar aches and pains of grip. use Dr.
Miles Pain Pills. They act quickly and
effectually, and no bad effects result
from their use. These remedies have
been thoroughly tested more than 8
million times, and their efficiency is thor.

Wilson Bill for Constitutional Con-
vention to Come Up Again.
The blow administered by the senate
to the Wilson measure calling for a con-
stitutional convention, may not, after
ALL result fatally. The bill requires for
passage a two-thirds vote of tie senate.
1t received but 20 votes, while q votes
are recorded in the negative.
Senator Potter opposed the passage of
the bill, on the ground that the expense
would be enormous. This position of the
Hennepin member occasioned some sur
prise, as the bill, which will simply sub
nit question to the people, will carry
no expense. Senator Wilson explained
this point, in his advocacy of his meas
ure, and outlined the provisions of the
bill. Senator Stockwell spoke in favor
of the bill. as did Senator Knatvold
Considerable surprise was expressed at
the strength of the opposition. The bill
has not been generally studied, and it is
thought that some of the votes recorded
against it may be finally cast in the af-
firmative.

only one point above zero. Ice had
then formed on still water in the
river to a thickness of five inches,
but the icemen were waiting for
another inch. Wednesday strong
warm wind set in and by Thursday
night it brought rain which spoiled
what ice there was. The weather
is still threatening storm and we
may have another cold snap that
will make good ice, but it is doubt
full. The youngsters We're the only
