BILLS INTRODUCED

Favorable report on the medical
board of control bill, adoption of the
concurrent resolution condemning the
proposed Canadian reciprocity, and
passage of resolution providing for
a recess from February l till Febru-
airy I, together with extension of time
for treasurership investigation COM
mittee were the interesting features
of the house of representatives SEES
sion yesterday afternoon which, it
must be admitted, was very tame.
Routine work, including the intro
duction OF new bills, referring of SEA
ate bills and receiving of sundry re-
ports, took up great deal Of time.
The very unexpected peaceable set.
Element of the difficulties that have
arisen since the medical board of
control bill had been proposed by the
medical practitioners of the state was
brought to the official notice of the
house in the report Of the public
health committee. The amendments
that were agreed to late Saturday aft.
ernoon at q conference of the var
ious persons directly concerned in the
progress of the proposed measure,
were reported out by the committee
and the bill goes to general orders
where it will come up for cOnsidera.
ton tomorrow.
In the amendments that have been
accepted by the committee that por.
ton Of the bill having to do with the
practice Of osteopathy, is done away
with. Osteopaths assume the title
of doctors Of osteopathy" while the
regular physicians take the title of
physician and surgeon" Minor sur.
gerry, it is provided, may be done by
the OsteOpaths without the necessity
of having to take the examination
that will be given by the medical
board.
Adoption of the Geiger resolution
asking the North Dakota members in
congress to oppose the adoption of
the Canadian reciprocity compact was
brought about without a dissenting
vote on the report of the ways and
means committee, made by Chairma \
Dean. When the message from the
senate was received announcing that
that body had concurred in the same,
the message was greeted by . round
of hand clapping.

upon at caucus held Sunday after
noon. was proposed in the bill intro
duced by Mr.. DISCARD of Nelson coun-
tn. The same bill was placed before

Adoption of the resolution intro
duced by Mr.. Kuhl of McHenry coun-
~ providing for recess from Feb
ruary 1 to was an interesting feat
&c Of the session.
On the adjournment resolution ef-
'orts were made to amend. but with
out success, Mr.. Sorlie proposing to
ave the recess from February 3 to
February I, but failing to secure
,nough votes although there was
oil call on the passage of the resolu-
ion as originally drawn up. such roll
;all being secured at the request of
'oD Frame.
When Mr.. Sorlie's motion for
:har..2 in the time for the recess wa:
made. Mr. Boyd of Cavalier made
cling talk against the change. r."
ec'ared that under the amendment /:
10 time would be given the members !
esiding some distance from the city ,
0 reach their homes at all. but max >
necessary for them to reside in
bismarck. and if such was to Re the
ase. he felt that they might just as
ell abandon the idea of having any
ocess. On the vote the amendment
as lost. with the roll call on tho
"'einal motion resulting in its pas
age. :,
