Independent Editor:
The house is very busy body
now. It's calendar is filed to the
limit every day and it takes a morn.
ing and afternoon session to clear
away the business. With committee
meetings It makes life pretty strenu-
ous. TIE Normal Bill passed the
house Thursday, last and this was
q great load of the minds OF the
Ward county delegation. The bill
win undoubtedly pass the senate
this week and II it does, the peo-
pie Of the state will have to say at
the next general election whether or
not they want Normal Schoo: at
Minot.
A large number Of bills have
passed one house or the other and
. few have passed both houses and
received the governors signature.
About $50 bills have been intrdouc.
ed, and It Is the duty OF a legislator
to see that bad bills are killed as
-weti as see that good bills are
passed.
A large number of bills are in
troduced to remedy some particu.
lar isolated case that has been brot
to the attention OF the author. Many
times the bill would work greater
hardship to hundreds Of citizens
without curing the ills sought to be
cured. Bills are introduced tdat
ore freakish in their nature. Some
times as joke and sometimes the
author does not understand tehm.

perfection OF the organization and
in fact the origin Of the plan may
be credited TO A. N. Dckler, 3roprie

ready to work for the raising ol

had this organization in view for
some years, and during the time
that he travelled about the state as
president of the State Board Of Elk.
aminers, he secured more than four
hundred signatures to an agreemnt
to complete this organization. as
soon as the time should demand 1t.
North Dakota today mas perhaps the
best class Of BARRIERS Of any state

lied right along that what they
needed was organization in order
to work in harmony.
The organization will bring about
a uniform scale Of prices in the
future, not necessarily raise the
prices that are in vogue. but make
them the same the state over.
There were enough delegates at the
Valley City convention to repre-
sent four hundred BARRIERS of the
state. There are about eleven
hundred BARRIERS within the state,

be included within this organization,
which has fairly got to working.

College delivered a very able ad'
dress to the joint assembly.
A bill has been introduced which
mas for it's object the doing away
with mechanics liens In favor OF
one VINO furnishes material Need
less to say this is aimed at the
lumberman. This bill has worked
up considerable discussion. Those
who oppose the bill say that the
lien has done great deal for the
poor farmer who could not get
credit without the lien. That the
lien has developed the country. etc.,
Those who favor the measure say
that tn poor farmer could get
the same credit without the lien
law as with it by giving mortgage
on his premises. That il he knew
that he was giving a lien on his
farm when he bought the lumber
he would be more careful about buy
ing and would get along better.
The lumber interests here boldly
assert tnat they do not care whether
the bill passes or not. It looks to
me as though it would make very
little difference to anyone. eithr
