q Bismarck, N. d., Jan. y. Special
Correspo ondence: Resubmission is a
dead issue as far as this legislature is
concerned. A caucus was called for
the consideration of the matter last
evening but the deal was switched
and wolf bounty formed the topic for
discussion. 1t seems that over one
half of the members Of the house have
signed an agreement to oppose any
attempt on the part Of resubmission-
lists to bring about the passage of a
bill. The resubmission promoters be !
came aware of this fact and this is
said to have been the reason for not
bringing up the matter last night.
The slope members have been the
greatest advocates of resubmissiOn.
OF late it has been apparent that 1T
would be a hard matter to pass both
resubmissiOn measure and a wolf
bounty bill. The Slope members have
some hopes Of passing the latter bill
and do not wish to jeOpardize their
chances by trying to force a resub-
mission bill through. A resubmission
bill will undoubtedly be introduced
in the senate or house but there will
be no fight and twill be simply intro
duced to please certain constituents.
The druggists Of the state have q
lobby here working against the pass
age Of the bill lrepealing their permits.
The bill is introduced on behalf Of
the enforcement league which claims
that the prohibitory law IS being
fractured more nowadays by the drug
gists than BY any other class. The
bill stands q good show to pass, for
besides having the support Of the
prohibition element there are Others
who, while mot proflibi bitionists inftIle
istrictest sense Of the word, want to
see what they term monopoly in the
whiskey business done way with.
The bill making it unlawful to solicit
for orders for intoxicating liquors in
the state is also measure introduced
on behalf Of the enforcement league.
The idea IS to have the sale Of intox-
icants stopped If such thing is
possible. From the pressure being
brouhgt to bear on the Legislators by
the druggists lobby one would be led
to believe that the resolution adopted
at state meeting Of druggists to the
effect that they did not desire permits
and disliked to traffic in liquor, was
only . blum. Selling whiskey and
other liquor at exhorbitant prices
keeping poor quality Of goods and
selling the same indiscriminately are
among the arguments being used for
repeal Of permits. 5
