Provision is made for the surrender
OF any license that may have been
granted by any municipality within

the license fee to be returned to the
licensee. The carrying of an election
for no license keeps the county dry
until another election is held, and
such an election can not be held until
three years have elapsed. Likewise,
if county goes wet, it remains wet
for the next three years, the bill pro-
viding that no county option election
can be held in the meantime.

OF the amount named above d bill
has already been reported for passage
in the house for six hundred thousand
dollars odd. Some opposition de-
veloped to it in the house, as I have
before stated. Tuesday it's provisions

Kunze. Part of this appropriation is
for deficiency in the appropriation
of two years ago; the balance for the
completion and equipment of build

resentative Robinson moved to strike
out all but the deficiency appropria-
ton of S130,000. The amendment was
voted down with substantial unanim-
ity. DR.. Stone of Park Rapids
criticised the elaborate nature of the
equipment for the medical buildings.
The best surgeons, he said, prided

appropriations, and stated that the
only time university appropriations
we're not exceeded was when their ex-
penditure was under the direction OF
the business men who then constituted
the state board of control. He
thought such men better qualified to
supervise the construction of UNIVERSE
ty buildings than the specialists to
whom it appeared the matter was now
left.
