The drug permit bill was the center OF
interest in the two houses during the
week. The prohibitionists of the state
do not favor the Macarthur bill to abol-
ish druggists permits altogether and
place the sale of liquor only upon pre-
scriptions of physicians. The physicians
of the state are generally opposed to this
bill, as they claim it would reduce the
standard of the medical profession and
subject its members to many undesired
opportunities for prescriptions" R. M.
Pollock of Fargo, who appeared before
the committee this week, favors the Nc
Crea bill in the house, which aims to
place the granting of permits under the
supervision of district judges and to
make the present law more effective. Re-
culiarly enough, the representatives OF
the druggists of the state appeared be-
fore the committee and urged the Nc
Arthur bill for the repeal of the permit
law, claiming it degraded the business
of pharmacy and that its provisions or
those of the McCrea bill would have no
terrors for the disreputable druggist who
desired to evade the law. No bill on the
subject has passed yet, although the Nc
Arthur bill will come up in the senate in
a dav or two and the vote on it is apt to
be close

The failure of the state of Minnesota
to grant representation on the boards OF
appeals at Minneapolis and Duluth to
representatives of North Dakota is
likely to result in the passage OF con-
stitutional amendment providing for the
building of a terminal elevator at Du-
luth or Superior 1t will take four
wears to obtain the final passage and ap-
proval of this amendment The commits
sion that visited Minnesota and con-
ferred with its officials was successful IN
gaining the approval of the house and
senate of that legislature and OF the rail-
road and warehouse commission, but
the attorney general of Minnesota has
held that no North Dakotan can sit as
member of the Minnesota boards
under the constitution of that state. A
compromise proposition has been offered
that North Dakota name two men to SIT
with the Minnesota boards and have &C
cess to the books and records of thu
boards, but not to have any vote or bt
members of the board. This proposition
it seems, is not likely to be accepted
The terminal elevator proposition ha:
been reported for favorable considera'
ton of the legislature and may finall,
become reality.

patents shall be delivered to entrymen

shall be accepted by the local land Of

ing the land is under1aid with Ignite

The various investigation committees
have been in session during the past
week. The penitentiary investigation
committee made preliminary report the
first of the week, stating the nature Of
the charges that had been filed and that
it would not be able to report as to the
fiscal showing of the Irvine plant for
lack of time, before the end of the ses-
sion, the expert accountants engaged
not being able to complete their work
before the end OF the session. 1t was
stated that the bookkeeping system OF
the institution had not been sufficient
and that it was impossible to tell in
many instances what the institution had
produced or how it had been disposed
of. Some improvement, it was stated,
had been made, but the system was tar
from perfect. A bill has been presented
by the investigating committee to make
the state treasurer the treasurer for the
institution, and to provide for the direct
payment BY the state of bills for raw
material, thus avoiding interest charges
on money advanced to pay drafts for
materials. The committee recommends
the installing of an entirely new system
of bookkeeping for the institution and
will make a further report later in the
session. The committee to investigate
the disposition of fees for teachers GER
ti6cates in the office of State Superln-
tendent Stockwell has completed its in
vestigation, and it is expected to report
Saturday or Monday. All kinds OF ru-
mors are circulated regarding the ind
ings of the committee, and the report IS
awaited with considerable interest. Inc
committee to investigate other state de-
partments has made an investigation,
but no report as yet.

BOARD OF CONTROL.

OF all the reform measures that have
been proposed in this and previous legls-
latures the proposition for a board OF
control, of FIVE persons, to take charge
of all the penal and charitable lnstltu-
tons of the state is the most meritorl-
Gus. No other measure is OF so great I'M
portance, no proposed legislation would
effect such great saving in cost to the
taxpayers of the state as the transfer OF
the management of our state institu-
lions over to board of control, consist
ing of men selected regardless fparty
or faction, but solely because of em'n-
ent fitness and qualification.
1t is time every public institution was
turned over to the state. Not that 1t is
wrong that the various communities
wherein they are located should take
especial pride and interest in the re-
spective institutions, but it is undeniable
that under the present system the man
aeements are too much localized. Under
the board of control system much OF the
strife that exists to control the manage
ment in the interest of locality as well
as certain merchantile and political
benefits would be done away with and
all the institutions would be managed
for the benefit of all the people of the
state as we'll as the communities favored
with their location.
The feeling that has grown up that an
institution belongs more to the COM
munity where it is located than to the
state at large is wrong and ought to be
discouraged.
A board of control would look upon
the needs of the various institutions
from a broader and more unselfish en-
vironment than is possible under the
present system of individual boards of
trustees. A board of thorough, practi-
cal men, chosen because of their especial
fitness for the various interests to be
looked after would save this state thou
sands of dollars in money and add i'm
measurably to the building up of the in
stitutions.
No matter under what administration,
Republican, Democratic or half and
half, the principle of the board of con-
troll is right and if it is right - if it
would result in good to the state, it
ought to be inaugurated.

A Lost Fee.

Tie Right Hon. Augustine Birreu
once believed that he had been smit-
ten with a mortal disease and went to
consult a distinguished doctor who
lived in the neighborhood OF Harley
street and who was a great expert on
the disease Of which he thought he
was a victim. 1t was hot day In July.
and as he walked from his London
home. which was in the neighborhood
Of Addison road, to Harley street no
perspired freely.
He found the great physician's
rooms all crowded with patients-
probably, he thought, suffering from q
similar complaint to himself. >
While waiting he found on the table
a book written by the great physician
on the subject Of the particular dis
ease. He opened the book, and tho
first words which caught his eye were
these: 1.-THE patient who Is suffering
from this disease never perspires."
He had Scotch blood in his veins, so
he picked up his hat and gloves and
walked out, and he never saw that

The apportionment bill to divide the
state into congressional districts was the
subject of a major and minority re-
port by the senate. The majority wanted
the state divided on a north and south
line and the minority on an east and
west line The majority report was
adopted and if the bill passes it will d.
vide the state so that the Red river val
ley will have one congressman and the
western part Of the state one. A good
many members do not favor any division
and would prefer to see both congress
men elected at large until the state gets
its new apportionment after the, next

IMPRESSIONS OF BISMARCK.

Returning to the Magic City of Minot,
after spending few days in the Capital
City in the interest of the normal school
proposition, Ex-Governor Devine took
occasion to say some nice things abor:
Bismarck and its development. Mr..
Devine has always had faith in the de-.
velopment of the western part of thu
state and its cities. Nor has Mr.. Devine
hesitated to declare that Bismarck has
had reputation in the past not justified
BY the real conditions. Political strife
has led to some practices not just prop
er, but withal, the Capital City years
ago was given mad dog name, from
which it took years to recover. Now it
is admitted on all sides that Bismarck
is as clean city and the laws are as
we'll enforced as in the other large cities,
especially the interior cities of the state.
To quote from the article written by Mr..
Devine in the Ward County Independ-
ent:
"The city of Bismarck is the most his
toric in our state and has made wonder
full changes, and changes, too, that are
decidedly for the better, not only in gen.
eral appearance as to its public and bust
ness buildings, its homes and its streets,
but the marked evidence on every hand
of strict enforcement of law, including
the prohibitofy law. I doubt whether
there can be found within the borders Of
the state city so completely under law
and obeying it as that of Bismarck to-
day. Even the drug stores, so I am told,
are strictly out of the whisky selling
business. It isn't TO be got under any
consideration at any drug store, and
that, to say the least, is a remarkable
state of affairs to the old timer on visit
ing the Capital City. The future of this
city is certainly 4 bright one; beautifully
located at the base of the hills north,
and Old Muddy winding by to the south
and west; with 4 splendid climate PEE
euliarly its own, with the rapid growing
