1t is announced that the cham
Der will take immediate action to
impress upon the company that
the people of this section are very
earnest in their demand that this
section of Alaska be given an op-
Dortunity to develop and will in
sist that the company grant re-
luctions in south bound rates and
are also decidedly opposed to any
increase of northbound rates. The
matter will hs fully discussed at
the meeting Cf the chairmen of the
the chamber this evening and will
olso be laid before the big meet
ing at Eagle hall next Sunday. On
this occasion the citizens will
be given an opportunity
to enter a vigorous protest. Ac.
cording to local business man
the increase in northbound rates
will result in the people of St
ward peninsula paying out fully
fifty thousand dollars more than
usual during the coming summer
for traffic expense. Additional
results will be that the price of
coal, foodstuffs merchandise and
general supplies will advance pro-
nortionately in the local markets
thus adding an extra cost to the
consumer not considered in the
estimate given.

Discussion of the possibilities
IF the aeroplane as a means of
solving some of the transportation
problems of this section is becom-
ng decidedly interesting. Several
'ocal parties are now highly en-
thnsiastic over the prospects of
an aerial transportation route and
it is an excellent bet that at least
one of the machines will be doing
service over Seward peninsula
before another winter arrives. The
latest to become actively interest

claims All these are now law. I
urged that the House and Senate
membership should be reduced in
number and that four year terms of
office should be made for state and
county officers. Neither of these have
become law, but I believe will in the
near future:
Economy and Efficiency
During my administration, ! have
conducted the business OF the state
with economy and efficiency and an
investigation of the records will sub.
stantiate this statement.
Cooperation,
! have always believed In the CO.
operation and organization of the
farmers and have given every en-
enlargement to these movements and
to every movement looking toward the
advancement of our people along the
lines of temperance and education.
NATIONAL ISSUES
Experience
AS a member Of Congress- for four
years from our state l had valuable
experience in national affairs. which
would be highly advantageous should
become United States Senator from
North Dakota.
Water Power
We have right here in North Da-
kota one of the greatest water powers
in the world-the Missouri river.
North Dakota furnished more money
than any other state in the union for
national irrigation projects. hold
that this state is entitled to the use
of some of these funds for the purpose
of dar1m'ng the Missouri river. The
waters of the river, If damned, and
it can he, could be used for irriga-
ton over {; large area. aid, in addi-
ton power ard light could be general
ed to-supply farms and towns over a
vast territory.
Reciprocity Act
The Reciprocity Act between the
United States and Canada should be
repealed. / voted against this act
when a member Of Congress and
should l be elected to the Senate will
use every effort to secure the repeal
OF this law:
Tariff and Philippines
I am Republican and believe in
a reasonable protective tariff. be
lieve we should maintain our control
of the Philippines until such time as
we shall have fulfilled our pledges
and the inhabitants of the island
shall be fully capable of self gov
! eminent.
Preparedness

recommendations became

Blue Sky Laws.
/ recommended the passage of z
Blue Sky Law, With stringent regula-
tions for selling stock in corporations
This law has saved the people of the
state large sums Of money. .
... Coal Products. ..-
The greatest natural resource We
have is our Ignite coal. | recon.
mended to our legislature that this
industry should be given help, look
ing toward the briquetting of coal and
the making of gasoline and other oil
by-products from it.
Reducing the States Debt.
| called the attention of the 1915
legislature to the fact that when
became Governor the state owed, as
a floating debt, about three hundred
thousand dollars. All of this has been
paid during, the years ! have been
Governor. The bonded debt of the
state was 1897 ,SOO>t1 and this has
been reduced about one half in three
years-a total reduction OF $3.50. 900. 90
in the states Indebtedness.
Lowest Tax Levy.
If North DakOtans will look over
their tax receipts they will find tina,
for the past three years the tax levy
has been the lowest for state purposes
in our history.
Budget System.
recommended a Budget System for
our state appropriations. This was
largely followed by the 1915 legisla-
ture and provision made for it for
the future. The Budget System means
economy in the administration of our
affairs.
Reducing Interest Rate.
I was the first Governor ever to
recommend that the contract rate Of
interest be reduced from II to 10 per
cent, and this was enacted into law.
Board Of Regents.
I recommended that a State Board
of Regents be established which
should have the care and control Of
our state educational institutions
This also became a law, and is one
of the best measures passed by the
legislature of 1915.
Other Reforms.
/ also recommended the passage of
the law creating the trained Nurses
Examining Board; the law to encour-
age Immigration; the law to permit
the state to take advantage of the
so-called Lever Bill in the interests
of the better farming movement; the
law providing for the fumigation of
cars carrying livestock; the law pro,
viding for the payment of the dourine

ing the Land Department, should he
checked up by expert accountants.
This was done and tue books in every
department were 8; dited and BROUGHT
down to date.
Rural Credits.
I recommended that an apprOpria.
ton should be made for the purpose
of studying the rural credit problem.
This recommendation was not acted
upon. but | believe North Dakota has
the best solution of this problem OF
any state in the Union. The original
law permitting the school funds to
be loaned upon farm lands was passed
in 1897, and the first bill upon that
subject ever submitted to the state
legislature was introduced by me when
a member of the House in 1895, the
law having gone into effect in 1897.
When became Governor in 1913, the
law had been in effect Is years, the
number of farm loans was 999 and t4le
amount loaned was $l,654.9T.O 90. To-
day there are l26O9 loans and the
amount loaned is $4.1SS,74O.OO. In
brief. during the three years l have
been Governor, 1910 loans were made
as against 999 for 16 years previous
an increase of 1Gl per cent: the
amount of the loans was increased
153 per cent. These loans are we'll
scattered over the state, every coun-
ty has received its prOpOrtiOnate part
of the money and the farmers have
derived the benefit of this low rate
of interest.
Absent Voters Law.
recommended the Absent Voters
Law in 1913, and it passed at that
session.
Game Conservation.
I recommended that the killing of
deer be prohibited for a number of
years and that spring shooting should
be stopped, both of which game con-
