North Dakota stands second among the

Fire Prevention Day, Oct. 8.
Gov. Hanna, has issued pro-
clamation designating October as
fire prevention day.
The proclamation follows:
State of North Dakota, Executive
Department.
Every year North Dakota and the
whole country as well suffers severely
by fires, many of which might be pre-
vented with proper care. By reason
Of this fire loss the rates of insurance
are high. If we can only educate the
young people in our schools and the
older people upon the farms, in their
homes and in their business, to clean
up their property and take proper
care of it, and to help to prevent
fires, We can save an enormous
amount of money each year by pre-
venting fires.
To the end that the people Of the
state may cooperate with the State
Fire Marshal's Department in the re.
duction Of loss by fire, I hereby desig-
nate Monday, October 9th, 1916 as
Fire Prevention Day in the State Of
North Dakota. This day is the ami
versary of the great Chicago fire
where great loss resulted through
carelessness and bad conditions, and
1 sincerely urge that the citizens Of
the state everywhere cooperate so
that Fire Prevention Day may really
mean something in North Dakota.

Governor.

To Vote Directly.


For the first time, voters Of North
Dakota will this year have an oppor-
tunity Of voting directly upon legis-
lative matters-two propositions be-
ing referred to them.
One, the mill tax for the establish
ment Of terminal elevators, and the
other. fixing the penalty for bootleg
ging, and more clearly defining boot
logger, come before the people under
the provisions of the referendum
amendment to the state constitution,
as affecting statutes.
Both these acts were passed by the
last legislature, but were referred to
the people by petitions.
The elevator tax act repealed the
small levy that has been made for sew.
eral years for the creation Of fund
for the establishment Of terminal
elevator. The last legislature repealed
the law, but referendum petitions
we're Immediately circulated. AS re-
suit the act has been held in allegiance.
If the voters Of the state declare
against the measurable legislatures
