To achieve civilization race must conquer itself and each individual must master the savage existing with in him.

nent Of this scrt would be a waste
of the peoples money and hu-

people Of the state.
II state goes into the PROPOSE

The board refers those interest

Mr. Greedy, the representative Of
those interests.
Twin City miIers only purchase
wheat in terminal elevators when
track wheat cannot be had.
The North Dakota farmer ship
ping his wheat to the terminal
market and putting it into the
state-owned terminal elevator
which has been proposed would
lose the premium now being paid
for track wheat and would also
have to pay storage and handling
charges.
The terminal elevator PROPOSE
tion would ultimately amount to
that Of furnishing storage for the
mills.
MilIers will not pay any more
for North Dakota wheat in North
Dakota elevator than they would
for the same wheat in other public
terminal elevators.
Two terminal elevators would be
needed, one at the Twin Cities
ard the other at the head Of the
lakes. t.
A terminal elevator fully equip.

An elevator Of three million
bushels capacity is the most eco

The state would not be justified
in going into the elevator busi-

A French eye witness with official

SUFFRAGE IS
ISSUE AGAIN
Senator Bronson Introduces the
Amendment Ratified Two
Years Ago.

Senator Bronson of Grand Forks
county introduced concurrent reso'
luton to submit constitutional
amendment to the people at the next
election. The legislature two years
ago ratified the proposed suffrage
amendment and if this session does
so the matter will then go to the
people.
The question was submitted at the
November elections under the consti-
tutional section which gives authority
to extend or restrict the right of suf-
frage by submitting the matter to the
vote Of the people. In other words,
the constitution of the state of North
Dakota provides a special referendum
on sulirage matters.
Many legislators believe that the
subject should not be submitted again
in view of the recent defeat.
