tured to ask him on other matters Of
national import, viz; The repeal Of
the anti-canteen law; and the seeming
desire on the part Of the war DEPART
ment and others high in army circles
for a repeal of the law, and asked
what he would advise.
MADAM" he replied ''hold the
law"
"'But, Mr.. Reed, how can we hole
the law with such odds against us?"
GLOW did you get the law?"
''We fought for it,"
Then madam, hold it by the same
means.
"BUT HOLD IT." this was de
clared with great earnestness.
Upon the matter Of government
permits being issued in prohibition
territory, he went over the question
patiently and carefully, pointing ou,
the difficulties in the way. There
was no hurry, no showing one off; but
kindly, willing, gentlemanly aid.
At the close of the interview, he
took my hand in parting, I again
thanked him in behalf of our great
organization, to which he responded;
81 am glad If I have been able to give
you the help you wanted, but please
do not quote me: / am out of public
life now; I have gladly given what
you have asked, but this is for your
guidance"
CHOW that lie has passed into the
life where there can be no misconstru-
ing of words and motives, / feel free
to tell what he said: The death of
such a man is a national loss"
Such advice from such a source on
the canteen law is comforting and
reassuring to those who believe it to
be beneficial measure, as opposed to
the many conflicting views and sub
that are presented concerning
it. Thomas B. Reed possessed a mas
ter mind; he was thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the social conditions of the
army and the whole political situat-
ion Of our country. His counsel is
well worth needing, when even sup.
posed friends seem to hesitate and
waver as to the wisdom of this law
and also the Prohibition law.

imposing a license fee on a deal
er of any kind was in order to
provide for necessary police sup
ervision, and that the fees must
not exceed the reasonable cost
of such inspection. The supreme
court seemed to take this view
of the case, and the law was de-
clared unconstitutional on these
and other grounds.
The law which it is proposed
to enact at this session does not
appear materially to differ from
lhe former one in it's essential
features. It does not purport to
be police measure. and makes
no provision for inspection. It
is on the other hand distinctive
~ a revenue measure. as it pro.
vides for the collections of q tax
and it's application to the general
fund Of the county in which it is
collected.
The peddlers of the state, and
there are many of them, say that
they are not opposed to a license
Of some kind, but they want the
charges to be reasonable, which
they say is not the case with the
proposed charges in this bill.
They point out that under the
provisions of this bill they would
be obliged to pay a license fee in
every county in which they do
business. The charge fixed for
a dealer travelling with a two
horse team is $3.50 in each coun-
ty. As many Of these dealers
do business in a dozen counties
the proposed tax would amount
to a sum the payment. of which
would drive them out of business.
They argue that this is unjust,
that their business is alegitimate
one, and that it is not right that
they should be treated as Grim
inals. Some of the represent
alive men among them say that
it a plan can be devised which
will provide for the payment OF a
tax into the state treasury, SO
that one tax will cover the state
and permit them to do business
anywhere in the state they will
not fight it if the charges are
anywhere in the neighborhood
of reason. Crank Forks Herald.

present session ana q 0um0er OF
measures will ba introduced
coming directly from that organ
ization. One bill will ask for the
repeat Of the present druggists
permit law, allowing whiskey for
the compounding of drugs and
medicines only. Two years ago
the state druggists association
passed a resolution asking that
the permit system be abolished.
No action was ever taken with
that end in view, but it is un-
derstood that the Enforcement
League will father such meas
ure and that it will be introduced
within q few weeks. Another
bill that the league will present
will be one prohibiting the solicit
ing Of orders for liquors within
the confines of the state. A
number of travelling men now
make North Dakota points for
the sale of liq uors and beverages,
and the new bill will prohibit
this traffic.
The Enforcement League bet
ter 20 slow or the first thing it
knows the druggists. will
"trump" the trick and will get a
bill through giving them au-
thority to dish up liquors for
medical purposes by the quart
or gallon. One of our local
courts has already decided that
to administer q quart or two at a
lick is within the meaning of
the law and if this new bill is
pushed through there will be no
limit to the amount administered
or compounded as medicine. Of
course the druggists favor such
a bill. It is q snap compared to
the present permit system.
Better let that part of the law
alone.
Some time prior to the meeting
OF the legislature two years ago
the supreme court decided that
the peddlers' license law which
was then on the Statute books
was unconstitutional. At the
last session of the legislature an
effort was made to enact another
law, but this failed. This year
the subject comes up again, and
another bill is before the assem-
bly,. There is in many quarters
a demand for a law of this kind,
as there is complaint on the part
of merchants who are establish
ed in the cities and villages
throughout the state that with
out some protection of this kind
the itinerant merchant has an
advantage over them, as it is i'm
possible for the authorities to
reach him and compel him to
pay taxes, while they are oblig-
ed to pay the entire cost of
schools, roads, and the other
things for which taxes are ex-
pended. This situation exists in
every state, and where there is
no law compelling peddlers to
pay license fees there is always
q demand for such a law.
There were several grounds
on which the former law was de-
clared to be in violation of the
constitution. One of these was
that it was unlawful for q state
or any municipality acting under
the authority Of the state to levy
a tax for revenue purposes on an
occupation. The federal govern
ment may do this as y revenue
measure, but it was held that the
state has not this power. It
was argued that if the state
could levy 9 tax on peddlers it
could with equal propriety tax
the occupation Of ablacksmith or
q farmer. The proposed ped
dlers' tax Of course has no refer
ence to to the value Of the stock
which he may carry It is q tax
on an occupation pure and sim
pie. Again, another of the

Yesterday morning at ten o'clock
Mr. Adolph Koehler came into the
Cooper Office bearing in glass bottle
an enormous tapeworm. The worm was
still alive and had passed from his
system but a short time before. Mr.
Koehler said that he had been a suf-

He had scarcely left when Mr.. Peter
Marquardt came In bearing another
enormous parasite which had left his
system about an hour and half be-
fore. His story was almost similar to
Mr.. Koehler's. He had suffered for
years and had been treated by numer-
Gus physicians for heart trouble and

ROAD IMPROVEMENTS
Substantial Character Of Gull
veets q nd Drains Mea ms less
Yearly Expense.

The county commissioners have
about completed their annual trip
through the county to see what the
of the various townships want
in the way of supplies and improve
ments during the summer. They ex-
press themselves as very much graft
fed, at the result. Many Of the town
ships asked only few iron pipe for
road sewers.
The result, it is claimed. is due to
the fact that during the last five or six
years the commissioners have been
putting in substantial stone arch cul-
verts that do mot wash, out and do not
need repairs. Instead of the ordinary
box culvert or loose stone waterway,
in many instances iron pipe of large
dimension is being used. which is
much cheaper and more serviceable
than stone sewers.
There is a general demand, however,
for permanent road improvements and
1t is probable that some applications
will be made under the new road law
during the summer.
