The Initiative and referendum bill, BY
which all questions can be acted upon
by the people, was among those pass
ed. If this bill passes the next legis-.
lature and is favorably voted upon at
the following election, the resubmis-
sion of the prohibition question can be
put before the people. as we'll as any
other issue. An effort was made at
the last moment In the house to pass
the plain senate referendum bill.
which eliminated the constitutional
questions, but It failed.
After killing the senate bills Great
ing the Ninth and Tenth judicial dis.
tricts. the house passed the bills
through the herculean work of Sena-
tor Simpson.
The anti.pass bill went glimmering
on failure of the conference committee
to agree, and the members are pretty
well satisfied all round. They have
with one accord agreed there was no
real cry for the measure, anyway.
An apportionment bill was finally
agreed upon in conference and passed
both houses. It makes forty-seven
senators and ninety-five house men,
bers. The great increase in the senate
comes from the western part Of the
state. The only change made in the
Red river valley is taking one district
away from Trail county.
The oil inspection bill was finally
returned to the senate after repeated
demands, although both houses had
passed it. and as a punishment for the
ruffiing of senatorial dignity the pres
ident of the senate forgot to sign it be-
fore adjournment and thus it died.
The senate insisted there was
Standard Oil woodchuck in it and the
house claimed it was all right, and as
a result the new oil inspector is left
tus to conduct his business.
The house passed the following sen.
ate bills: Providing for a commits
sion consisting of the governor, fieu-
tenant governor and speaker Of the
house to investigate public utilities
companies and suggest to the next leg
islature plan for their taxation; pro.
hibiting fake insurance solicitors from
doing business in this state: ordering
annual reports of life insurance
companies; making a division Of coun'
ties; fixing salaries of officers and
agents of insurance companies; pro-
viding that insurance policies must
contain the entire contract; providing
for an accounting Of the surplus Of life
insurance companies; regulating in
vestments of life insurance compa-
MES; providing for recording of me-
chanics' liens; fixing standard form
of policies for life insurance compa-
MES (applies only to old-line compa-
nies); fixing a $4,000 bond for the
state treasurer; ordering biennial H.
censes for grain elevators and ware
! houses, each one to have separate IL
cense fees, SO, SO and $12.

RELIEF TO HoMEsTEADERs.
President Roosevelt Again Modities
Land Patent Order.

President Roosevelt Again Modities
Land Patent Order.
An additional modification Of the re.
cent order issued from the White
House positively prohibiting the issu.
ance of patents for public lands pend.
ing Investigations of alleged fraud has
been made by President Roosevelt,
under which communication proofs are
excluded from the rigors of the orr
ginal order.
A few days ago President Roosevelt
gave some relief to the homestead en-
trymen by modifying his order so
that five-year homestead settlers
would be able to obtain their patents.
Senator McCumber of North Dakota
was caller at the White House to.
day to discuss the situation with the
president, and he was informed by
President Roosevelt that the order
will be further modified at once to
permit the granting of patents to GOV.
er Communication proofs.
The president also reques- ed Mr..
McCumber to confer with the secre-
tary of the interior and the commits
sioner of the general land Office on
the subject, and the details for the
latest notifications were prepared by
those officials. The notifications in
the original order only apply to purely
agricultural lands.
The Withholding of patents for min.
eral lands and entries under the tim.
Der and stone act still continue, pend.
ing investigation to determine wheth.
er fraud or collision entered into the
taking of the lands.
They are estimated to be about 90,
900 entry1nen on agricultural lands in
the country from whom final patents
have been withheld under President
Roosevelt's original order.
Senator McCumber said to-day that
in one land Office district In North
Dakota the patents of entries to the
number OF 1,500 have been held up.
He believes that more than 5000 en-.
trymen in North Dakota will be re.
lieved by the notifications since
agreed upon by President Roosevelt
and the department officials. The en-.
trymen now will be able to obtain
money to make improvements.

The tenth assembly Of the North Da-
kota legislature adjourned late Friday
night, after sessions Of both houses
lasting all day, with only short inter-
walls for lunch and supper. A tremen-
dous amount of work was done and
bills passed or were killed with such
rapidity that few Of the members
knew what they were doing, many of
them finding at last that their pet
measures had been defeated while
they were digesting the last vote on
another measure. Bills that had been
killed on other days were resurrected
and passed; It Is estimated that Of the
700 bills introduced not more than 100
will reach the governor.

A Man of Few Words.

As every one knows, the great
Won Moltke never wasted words
and despised anything that ap-
preached garrulity in others. Ger
man army officers are fond of tell
ing an anecdote illustrative of this
popularity:
Won Moltke was leaving Berlin
on railway journey. Just before
the train pulled out Of the station a
captain Of hussars entered the gen.
erals compartment and, recognizing
him, saluted with "Guten morgen,
excellenz!"
Two hours later the train slowed
up at a way station. The captain
rose, saluted and with another
"Guten morgen, excellent" left the
train.
Turning to one of his compan-
ions, Won Moltke said, with an ex-
preston of the greatest disgust,

The Muscles Used and the Mechanical
Work They Do.

The Muscles Used and the Mechanical
Work They Do.
The chief muscles concerned in
walking are those in the calf and
back of the leg, which, by pulling
up the heel, also pull up the bones
Of the foot connected with it, and
then the whole body, the weight of
which is passed on through the
bones of the leg. When walking the
trunk is thrown forward so that it
would fall down PROSTATE were not
the right foot planted in time to
support it. The calf muscles are
helped in this action by those on
the front of the trunk and legs,
which contract and pull the body
forward, and, the trunk slanting
forward when the heel is raised by
the calf muscles, the whole body
will be raised and pushed forward
and upward. This advancement of
each leg is effected partly by mus
cular action, the muscles used being
(D those on the front of the thigh,
bending it forward on the pelvis;
(2) the hamstring muscles, which
slightly bend the leg on the thigh;
(3) the muscles on the front of the
leg, which raise the front of the
foot and toes, preventing the lat
ter, in swinging forward, from
hitching in the ground.
When one foot has reached the
ground the action of the other has
not ceased. There is another point
in walking. The body is constantly
supported and balanced Oh each leg
alternately and therefore on only
one at once; hence there must be
some means for throwing the GEN.
ter of gravity over the line of sup
port formed by the bones of each
leg, as it supports the weight OF the
body. This is done in various ways,
and hence the difference in the walk
of different people. There may be
slight rotation at the hip joint,
bringing the center of gravity of
the body over the foot of this side.
This rocking" motion of the trunk
and thigh is accompanied by a
movement of the whole trunk and
leg over the foot planted on the
ground and is accompanied by a
compensating outward movement at
the hip. The body rises and swings
alternately from one side to the 9TH
er as it's center of gravity comes
alternately over one or the other
leg, and the curvature of the spinal
bones is altered with the varying
position of the weight. - London
