The North Dakota press as
sociation will meet at the capital
city of the state next Tuesday
and Wednesday and the array oI
editorial talent that will gather
will totally eclipse the Legislature
entirely. It would be good
thing for our Legislators to adj
journ during the presence of the
pencil pushers in the capital city
as the legislature would be about
equal to dime side show from
the main circus. The faber
spoilers will have a grand con
cert and ball and every one Of
the fraternity is expected TO
leave his cork screw at home and
borrow a dress snit for the oc.

city will have within her borders

Representative Cassel, of
this district, has introduced a
bill in the legislature giving the
county com missioners authority
to accept bonds of county
treasurers as they see fit. This
is u blow at the bond companies
and is a step in the right di-
rection It costs this county
$175 to get a bond for our
county treasurer when he could
furnish a local bond better than
any outside company can furnish
without the cost of a cent to the
county. Mr.. Cassell' 8 bill is all
right. Let it pass.

The Courier believes that the
representatives Of this district
should vote for the defeat of any
reapportion ment bill at this ses-
sion making an increase in mem
bership. The expense to the
state which will be incurred if
the Sharpe bill is passed would
mean an additional $40, or
$50, 600 each session and the
state can lily stand such extra
expense at this time. The
present representation will do
the state for several years to
come. This district would gain
an extra member but we do not
need it. We are well and ably
represented at the present time
and the people do not want any
more members. Kill the bill.

Two or three primary election
bills have been introduced in the
legislature but noneof them seem
to be gaining much headway with
the members. It would seem to
us that 4 good primary election
law would be the best thing to
pass one that would be fair and
one that would do away with the
bosses and lessen election ak
penses. Such a measure that
would also give the people q
chance ana insure the nomination
of popular instead of machine

The bill cutting down eXcep-
tion from $500 to $500 has
passed the State senate and it is
said that enough votes have been
pledged to secure its passage
through the house, when it will
become a law-if the governor is
willing to approve Of it. The
legislature is being flooded witt,
petitions from all parts of the
state asking for its pas ssage.
There are many good arguments
both for the passage and defeat
of this measure. and personally
the Courier believes it would be
a good thing for all concerned il
it does pass. The passage of
such q measure will increase the
credit of every farmer in the
state and give them a better
show to get along. The only
serious objection to its passage
comes from people who don't
want to pay their debts. An
other good measure that will
probably become a law is the bill
taxing peddlers. A bill was
passed a few years ago but on
account of a defect in it the
supreme court declared it un-
constitutional and since that the
country has been flooded with
peddlers who do not pay one
cent toward the support of the
county where they operate to
the detriment of our business
men who spend their money in
building up the country and who
pay heavy taxes for the support
of their county and city and vii.
lage government. Senator Ames
of Trail county, drafted the bill.
and is said that it will stand a
test of the supreme courtif it be-
comes a law and we sincerely
hope that it will. While the SEN
Hator is at it helping out the mer-
chants he night also tack on a
section making 1T a misdemeanor
for those fellows who buy their
stationery from those cheap out
side establishments. What is
sauce for the goose is also sauce
for the gander and if those fell
lows and they are few-want
business protected, so do the
printing Offices who are asked to
jump onto the peddlers.

new readers very much. We
have just started the new civics,
and like it very much. We are
doing topic work in geography
and enjoy it. We like our new

Our schoo! has accomplished a

On this honor roll, which will be-

We took examination the 9TH of
December, for completion of the
common school course. We did
not expect to pass, but tried to
do our best.
Supt. Sinclair issued certifi-
Gates of completion to US in the
studies we passed in. These
will be sent to the new superin.
tendant next spring, when we
will write on the studies we now
fail in. We will not be discour-
aged, but will try again. hoping
that we may receive our al
pl0mas. This examination
means the finishing of that
course of study in the common
schools OF Griggs county, North
Dakota, issued by the state
superintendent. It is our aim
to work for diploma. We must
work faithfully that we can ac-
complish more in the future, than
we have in the past. The work
we are doing now will have a
great influence on our future
lives.

faithfully at school, while they
can; a moment is precious. and
we can not regain those lost
Education is valuable and is some
thing that cannot be taken away
from us like money. Therefore
we must try to get all we can.
When we do get an education we
can associate with cultured pe0-

onward" for our class motto, and
not only for our class motto. but
also for our future motto, which
will help us all through life. We
have taken for our class colors,
red, white and blue. Red
suggests the blood that was shed
for our Union: white means
purity, and blue means the
canopy of heaven above us. We
have taken for our class flower the

Truth-seekers is the class name.
IF we seek truths we are sure to

THE FLY as A PROPAGATOR OF Tvpyo,.
FEVER.

The study of the numerous ON
denies of typhoid fever in ~.
various camps has developed an mn
suaI amount of interest in the wiaa1n
varied Geological conditions ason
ciated with their d~evelonmert
Lately the ordinary house and field
fly assumes a comparatively new
role as a ready and plentiful dis.
tributer of the poisonous miorohs
The recent observations made hv
the government bacteriologists in
one of the southern camps inyests
this part of the subject with an in.
terest and Importance which can
scarcely be gainsaid. Although. 50
far as has yet been stated, tho proofs
that the fly can carry typhoid ara
not so demonstrable as is it's ability
to convey cholera infection, the
analogy Of relations between I'll
and effect is strikingly probable. DR..
M. A. Veeder in a recent issue of the
Medical Record has recorded some
observations on the point at issue,
which are of the greatest Importance
in settling any reasonable doubt on
the subject. The experimental in
question proved that flies readily
devoured the microbes in alvine
excavations and discharged them in
their feces and also carried them on
their feet, injecting every article of
food or drink with which they NAV
come in contact. From all accounts
there were abundant opportunities
offered the government experts for
demonstrating how this could be
done in the camp under observation,
as the flies were very plentiful and
the open privy trenches were very
near the food supply. From a logi-
cal point of view such observations
are exceedingly valuable and deserve
thoughtful consideration. The fly
is a natural scavenger, which is
capable of transferring wound poison
from one patient to another, is
charged with propagating yellow
fever and cholera, and5 being very
much of a gypsy in it's migratory
tendencies, may be found to be the
ever ready dissemination of the ty-
phoid poison when under other cir
cumstances the cause of the fever in
distant and isolated districts would
be Observation-Disclosures Record.
