NORTH DAKOTA WooDMEN.

NUhId UAkUIA WUUUMEN.
:. Fifty-three delegates of the
Modern Woodmen of America
in North Dakota, were Ia at.
tendance at the state conven-
tion which was held in this city
on Wednesday. Aside from the
regular routine business of the
order, the matter of completing
the Woodmen building at the
Chautauaua grounds was taken
up. An excursion wac made to
the grounds and the work al
ready done was inspected. A
board of directors consisting of
Judge Cowan, C. c. Connolly
and A. G. Tanton were elected
to take charge Of the matter and
push the work of completion at
cost not to exceed $4,000.
There are about 1900 Wood
men in this state and an assess
ment of so cents each will build
and furnish it. It is proposed
to arrange for the largest gath
ering of Woodmen ever held in
the state on the occasion of
Hon. w. J. Bryan's visit to the
Chautauqua, at which time the
distinguished orator, who is a
member of the order, will be
invited to take part in the build
ing ceremonies.
1t was decided to hold the
next state camp at Mandan.
The following were elected
delegates to the meeting of the
head camp at Milwaukee:
]. L. O'Donnell, Cass county;
r. ]. Murphy. Walsh county; L.
a. Corey, Ward county; r. S.
Campbell, Ransom county; ]. ].
Wamburg, Steele county; Jos.
Kitchen, Pembina county; W.
3. Radtke, Eddy county.
+ Although the. weather behav-
ed very badly, everything pos
sible was done to make the
visit of the delegates pleasant,
and they all left with q kindly
feeling for Devils Lake

MORE PRIMARY LAW,
Other states than North Da-
kota it seems have trouble in
enacting laws which give the
common voter chance to say
who shall be the nominees Of
his party Minnesota, last win
ter, passed a new primary law
which was amended by the pro-
fessional politicians until it
was little, If any, better than
the thing, dignified by the
name of primary law, passed
by the legislature of our own
state. And now comes Illinois
with another muddle under the
same name, which has some
good features but which ex-
empts Chicago, the headquart-
ers of political graft from it's
provisions.
In general the new Illinois
law seems to be a compromise
between the politicians and the
primary law reformers. Com
pulsory primary elections are
to be held throughout the state,
as they have been held hereto
fore in Chicago. What they
call the "mass convention" is
abolished. We suppose this
means a convention whose
delegates are chosen in the old
fashioned caucuses, without
the safeguard of a primary
election called and held under
authority of the state and
supervised by its own officials.
This is undeniably a step in
advance, but the law is encum-
bered with many complex pro-
visions. The direct primary is
made compulsory only in cities
and villages outside of Chicago.
In: the counties the managing
conmittee of the party may use
either the direct primary or the
delegate convention. State and
congregational candidates are to
be nominated in conventions
after being voted for in prim-
aries. They. get: their names
on pri mary ballots. by fling a
petition and paying a fee.
" Those .receivinga a clear major
ity mpst be nominated. by the
convention. .Othera go into the
conventions with the relative
strength they had in the prim-
aries. and the conventions bal
lot until one gets "a majority.
In order to, make this feasible
where delegates are tied :, up
with instructions, the law EN-.
powers a majority vote of any
convention to release any or all
delegates from their instruc-
tons.
Legislatures seem willing to
do anything except let the peo-
pie choose convention delegates
freely in a safeguarded primary,
and then let these delegates
nominate freely in a represen-
tative convention.

Sur1MER GLOVES

Washable gloves have become abso-
lutely Indispensable to the summer girl.
Fabric gloves. whether in Isle or linen
mesh, are so skillfuily woven now that
they have lost all of the starchy feeling
which has long been their objectionable
feature. The girl who Is peculiarly SEN
sitive to this irritation will find Isle
gloves lined with the most supple of
China silk. Fashionable shades, such as
old rose and old blue, are lined with
check silk or silk embroidered with
polka dots or tiny flowers.
