the "real thing"
Streeter was exercised lest this lapse
on the part of the daddy of the permit
law might not result in repeal of that
statute. - .
Shells explained that it would not,
that it was an article in common use,
like gasoline in foreign countries, that
it was made of grain Several members
winked the other eye at that and if
the duty was removed it would result
in manufactures in this country,
where now there were none, and the
consumption of large quantity of
,, grain. &a
Stevens thought if Shie1s could
stand for free alcohol the rest of them
could.
Chapman said if more than a pint
at time could be had he wanted to be
counted in. ...: ...-,..
Streeter claimed to be satisfied the
prohibition law was not endangered
by the seemingly incendiary resolu-
ton.
Phelau promised to vote for it if as
sured it was non-intoxicating.
G. M. johnson hoped it was wood
alcohol, otherwise he could not sup
port move to make it free. @l
Casey was sceptical, saying the
resolution was no good, because if
congress did admit alcohol free of
duty the half pint law was still a
statute of North Dakota.
The resolution was in grave danger
until Shells said this particular kind
Of alcohol was more deadly than wood
alcohol or blind pig whisky, that it
could be made for to cents gal
lon and made excellent fuel. This
saved the day, banished Streeter's
fears and the resolution passed unan-
imous1y. @a s@rs-

The house concurred in Senator Ba-
con IS concurrent resolution asking for
a division Of irrigation funds to help
drain the Red RiveE Valley.
