The term OF Senator John Wallin expires next
YEAR and the result of the normal school Sight IN
this city will determine solely whether he will again
become a candidate not, for reelection. Mr..
Wa1in says that if Minot should happen to lose the
school, which he does not believe very probable, he
would be ashamed TO 20 back to the Legislature
again. after putting up such valiant fight for the
school these past four years If by any hook or
crook Minot should lose the school, there would be
no need in trying to get another bill passed by the
legislature providing for location Of the school in
this city AS matter of fact, very small per-
centage of citizens have been concerned in the
fight, yet the people of the state do not seem to
take this into consideration The fight was unfor-
tCnate No matter what the outcome of it may be-
it will be many years before we can overcome the
evil effects of the bitter contest

The Bismarck Tribune published column of edi-
torial telling why Minot stood a good chance of
losing the normal school, The reasons set forth
are so nonsensica that hardly deem the eti-
noral worthy of answer. The Tribune questions
the fact that the Minot normal school was legally
provided for. Article Is of the Constitution of the
state of North Dakota provides for the amendment
to the constitution Another article provides for
the establishing of certain institutions in the stata
including the institutions at Valley City, Mayville
Grand Forks and other places, and the article ends
with the following statement: "Provided that
other institution of character similar to any one
of those located by this article shall be- established
maintained without revision Of the constitu
ton" The only question that could possibly be
raised is whether not the constitution re-
vised. The Tribune claims that the revision of the
constitution is thing and the amendment is
other. Our 1905 code is revised code. Many
laws appear in this code that do not appear in any
previous ones Revision to change the act
of going and making things better There
isn't the least chance to lose the normal school.
Our laws not made up of play on words. The
legislature intended to locate normal school at
Minot, and Our supreme court win consider this If
the matter is ever brot before that body

Fire Picture at the Elite.


It is about six weeks since the plant
Of the Powers Picture Company in
New York was destroyed by fire, and
1t was for the first time in the history
of the moving picture industry that
fire in a plant of it's kind resulted in
an entire loss. The fire broke out
while a big production was filmed in
the studio, and 1t spread so quickly
that the actors could scarcely save
their lives. Most Of the employees lost
their head, and some of them man
aged to save a dummy" piano, worth
about ten dollars, while valuable books
and negatives fell prey to the flames.
The camera man, however, proved to
be master of the situation. He hur-
ried across the street and turned his
machine on the fire, thereby securing
thrilling and most realistic picture
of the confla gration which cost the
Powers company about $4,000 as they
ture Of this fire will be shown at the
Elite theatre today. The principal pic
ture Of today's program, however, is
Tanhouser picture entitled, THE
Smugglers." This photoplay is quite
away from the usual, both in plot and
manner Of presentation, and hence is
more than pleasing. The yacht scenes
are we'll taken, and the clever method
| of trying to smuggle the diamonds in
the life pTeserver is deserving of all
| manner of praise. The film scored,

Tomorrow the Elite presents another

which caused the following very favor
able comment by the motion picture
critic OF the New York Morning Tele-
graph: Few picture plays are more
pleasing in their utter simplicity Of
plot than is this delightful Reliance
offering. 1t is presented in quite as

and as a consequence is a production
