The excellent programme for the
approaching convention of the North
Dakota Educational association, which
will be held in Fargo Nov. S, 6 and Z.
has just been completed and Is here
with given for the general interest of
the educators over the state.
Much work and time have been ex-
gramme this year, and it Is to be not
iced by those who have attended the
educational conventions for years,
that it is probably the best that has
ever been presented.
Credit for the splendid programme
is largely due w. E. Parsons of Bis
marck, the deputy superintendent of
the North Dakota Educational associ-
alton. Mr.. Parsons has labored most
effectually to get out a programme
that will be interesting and novel as
well as profitable to the educators of
the state and the public as well.
Chief Speakers.
Attention is directed to the two
chief speakers of the convention.
whose names have already been an
nounced in The Forum.
Cong. Simeon D. Fess of Yellow
Springs, O., and Henry r. Pattengill
of Lansing, Mich, are the big attrac-
tions.
Congressman Fess Is one of the few
republican representatives In the low
er house at Washington from Ohio
tiIis term. s1e represe1ts the Sixth
Ohio district. Before assuming his du-
ties in congress, Mr.. Fess was presi-
dent, OF Antioch college at Yellow
Springs.

Gator. fhe author of several books and

Washington, Sept. 22.-The strong
est test of President Wilson's control
over party policies and over the legis-
lative performances of congress, is
about to occur. s.- -
Within the last week he has seen
the triumph in the house of his cur
rency reform demands and the practi-
cal completion of the tariff revision
bill so far as the democratic admins
tration is connected with it.
The question now paramount in
congressional circles bears directly
upon the presidents potential control
of the currency reform situated in the
senate. Except for those Immediately
connected with the handling Of the
currnecy bill, the general query is:
Will the president be able to induce
the senate to act on the Glass Owen
bill without delay, and without ma
terial alteration of its provisions?
No doubt remains Of the determined
purpose Cf the president to urge con-
gress to complete the currency legisla-
tion' within the next few weeks and to
give the country a new banking
system and revised form of paper
currency before December.
Evidences of his concern in the mat
ter have come in series of events in

Anti.Snuff Test Case
Attracting Attention:
Is Right Cut Snuff?
American Tobacco Co. Attacks The Law on Three Grounds
ts and Takes 1t to the Supreme Court
Claim "Rght Cut Is Fine Cat, That Title Of Bill Doss No
Cover All Features and That Law Is Unconstitutional

Much interest attached to the test
Of the North Dakota anti-snuff law
which is now in litigation. At the re-
cent term of court in Stark county, c.
j. Olson, a tobacco dealer of Dickin-
son, was convicted of violating this
act and fined $500. The case was ap-
pealed to the supreme court and the
American Tobacco Co. Is making the
fight on behalf of Olson. Olson was
convicted in the district court Of SELL
ing four one-ounce boxes or packages
OF Right Cut chewing tobacco and
fined $500.
Section /, chapter 271, laws of, 1918,
prohibits the sale or manufacture of
snuff or any substitute therefor
Section 2 defines snuff "as any tobac-
co that has been fermented or dried
or favored or pulverized or cut or
scented or otherwise treated, or any
substitute therefor, or imitation there
OF, intended to be taken by the mouth
or nose"
This section, however, exempts from
this definition, ordinary plug, fine cut,
or long cut chewing tobacco as now
commonly known to the trade Of this
state.
1t appears that Right Cut chewing
TOBACCO is a fermented tobacco, finely
