EXPECT TO REvlSl
\, d. CONSTITUTION


The league is to carry out its
program, don't see how . con
s,;tutional convention Is to be
avoided. said President A. C.
Townley of the league here to.
dav. And ne added, the league
intends to carry out its program
The principal object in revis'
mo the constitution is to pro
vide for state ownership of pub
lie utilities.
4 hope to see the day when
some great state owned utility
will be located IN each of the
towns of Fargo. Grand Forks,
Minot. Bismarck and Mandan,
said Townley. The state is big
enough to support them, and if
we stick together, we will get
them.
Townley arrived ahead of 9TH
er delegates to the league cauc-
US, which probably will be de-
layed by the storm.
The possibility that the Non
partisan league caucus, schedul-
ed to begin in Bismarck today,
will go on record favoring a
constitutional convention, looms
up with increasing Importance
as the time for the proposed ac-
ton nears.
Reports early this week indi-
Gated that a constitutional con-
venion would be among the mat
terS considered by the Nonpar-
lsans in their caucus.
The statement today by c. E.
Townley, head of the Nonpartis-
an league. favoring the consti-
tutlonal convention, will give
new impetus to the movement,
and IN some quarters it is ac-
cepted as meaning that the con-
stltutlonal convention is already
an assured thing.
If constitutional convention
Is determined on, the purpose
will be the quick realization of
the Nonpartisan leagues extern
slVe program that requires sew
eral constitutional amendments.
ihe more important issues in
clude the establishment of state
ewned packing plants, state own
ed flour mills, etc.
Numerous Nonpartisan league
members-elect of the legislature
are already in Bismarck, and
.Aelr caucus will be placed un-
uer way tomorrow if a sufficient
number of the members are on
hand.
ine storm of Tuesday, it is
understood, delayed many of the
members, and it is barely posi-
U'e that the first action will be
delayed till Friday.

When the scoffers seofi and the mockers mock
And the Knockers stand the side and knock
Just roll up your sleeves and buckle in
And stick to your task and you're bound to win
If the things worth while you are sure to hear
The doubters doubt and the iecren ieer,
For never a victor has risen vet
But somewhere the jibes Of the wise has met,
So, deaf to the scoffers just work along
And stick to your dream uIi YOU know it, wrong
And toss them a smile when YOU hear folks mock
It's healthy sign when the knockers knock

SUGAR COST SMALL
On Each Jar Of Preserved Fruit win
BE Slight Increase Over Last Year.

Sugar cost in canning will natur-
ally concern the housewife in the
course Of the Civil and Commercial
course of the coming campaign de-
signed to fill the Gunnison cellars with
the preserved products Of the fields
and orchards. The advice Of those
who make sugar and those who study
economic conditions in connection
Herewith is: Don't let the sugar
cost worry YOU"
On the basis Of present prices, the
canning Of q quart jar Of fruit will
cost but six-tenths Of cent more
than it did in 1915. The cost will be
less than one and one-half cents per
quart jar more than it was five years
ago.
Approximately one-fifth Of the con-
tents Of the average quart jar Of cam
ned fruit is added sugar. To be exact,
there are six and three-quArter
ounces.
h 1912 the average retan prizes Of
sugar in forty-hve cities Of the United
States, rs Of March Is. was 6.4 cents
a pound. In 1915 it, was "a cents .
pound, and in 1917 it was 81 cents q
pound. Since 1912 the sugar used in
quart jar Of fruit has risen from %
cents to 3.s cents.
Attention is called to the fact that
this increase is infinitesimal when
the probable cost Of q Jar Of fruit at
time of consumption next winter is
taken into consideration. At any
rate, the increased cost is 50 small
that projected canning operations
should be carried out without hesita-
tion. Quick transportation from the
orchards and quick distribution will
allow an original price for the fruit
which will Offset in splendid measure
the comparatively small increases in
the cost Of canning accessories.

BIG COAL NINE
Cowan Property Above Somerset Il
Leased By Charles Oliver.

Says the Paonian: Another coal
mining enterprise is in process Of or
ganixation which, it is expected, will
mean one more substantial addition
to the commercial life of the North
Fork valley. P. B. Jenkins, who re-
Gently contracted the output of the old
Cowan mine. which he owns, for ship
ment to Pacific coast points, has ar
ranged to open the vein on the hold
ings Of Charles Oliver of Paonia.
This coal property lies about mile
and = half east Of the end Of the d.
4 r. G. railroad terminus at Somer-
set. It is continuation Of the meas
ures extensively worked by the Utah
Fuel company through its Somerset
mine and the quality Of its product Is
exceptionally high Furthermore than
an opening sufficient to sccommo-
date the residents Of the adjacent
hills farming region, no entry has
been driven into It. Mr.. Jenkins will
proceed It ostn to drive IN entry,
which will tfkc northeriy course
for . thousand feet and will then
turn east for twelve hundred feet.
The method to be pursued in de-
livering the output Of this mine to
railroad cars is yet to be determined.
Should negotiations now in progress
warrant, arrangements will be made
as quickly as possible for an extern
sion Of the railroad to the mouth Of
the mine, which would be no difficult
task. Otherwise. the development will
be limited to delivery by wagons. Mr..
Oliver has owned this coal property
for number Of years and more than
once 1t has been sought by established
mining interests. In view Of the re-
Gently stimulated market for coal, he
will no doubt feel amply rewarded for
declining to dispose Of It.

problem. II every Ameriean will do
all he can to assist Mr. Hoover the
food problem will BE- brought to such

HARD FOR CARVER.
He Has to Prosecute Personal
Friend in johnson Trial.
Yet He Insists on Conviction of
the Defendant.
CASE GOES TO THE JURY
Mckeeyer and Schenck Plead
for AcquittaI of Client.
They Argue Weaverling Child
Ran i'm Front of Automobile.

Robert d. Carver, county attorney,
today admitted that one of the hard
est tasks in his official life confronted
him in the prosecution of John X.
Johnson, a personal friend. charged
with killing 11-year-old Jesse WeaV-
e. ling in an automobile accident on
West Sixth street in October. In adj
dressing the jury, Carver told of his
friendship for johnson and his knowl-
edge of Johnson's enviable reputation.
70 The case went to the jury at 1;S0
o'clock Arguments by John ].
Schenck and E. d. McKeever, attor-
neys for johnson, and Robert d. Gar
yer and Hugh Fisher, prosecutors. oc-
cupied the entire morning in Judge
Whitcomb's division of the district
court.
yet. personal friendship and
knowledge of Johnson's sorrow and
attempts at reparation should not be
considered by the jury" said Carver.
IF you believe the death of Jesse
Weaverling was a result of excessive
s,pe ling by Johnson, it is your duty,
if you are not towards, to convict
him.
Il cannot police the streets of To-
peka to enforce traffic regulations. It
is only when the death of this child
or some other catastrophe occurs that
l have an opportunity to do my best
in prosecuting for failure to comply
with the law. If the daily failure to
enforce speed regulations on West
Sixth street, is as bad as pictured by
the defense, it behooves this jury, by
its verdict, to either open the flood
aates to such a procedure, or to close
them"
McKeever and Schenck pleaded for
Johnsons acquittal on the grounds
that johnson did not hit the child, but
the child ran into his car, that con-
viction and, Imprisonment would dc
Johnson no good, would put the stamp
of a criminal on him, blacken his
family's name and that man OF
Johnson's caliber had suffered every
heart anguish possible as a result OF
the accident.
The court room was packed. The
father and mother of Jesse Weaver
i ling were present at the morning SEES
sion. Mrs. Weaverling is not in good
health and was supported by her

RECIPE TO CLEAR
PIMPLY SKIN
Pimples are Impurities Seeking
an Outlet Through Skin
Pores.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and lmpur-
tiles which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment 10
sustain the body.
1t is the function of the kidneys TO
filter impurities from the blood ana
cast them out in the form of urine,
but in many instances the bowels
create more toxins and impurities
than the kidneys can eliminate, then
the blood uses the skin pores as the
next best means of getting rid of these
impurities which often break out all
over the skin in the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions, says noted author
ity. is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot
water each morning before breakfast
for one week. This will prevent the
formation of toxins in the bowels. II
also stimulates the kidneys to normal
activity, thus coaxing them to filter
the blood of impurities and clearing
the skin of pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
Here you have a pleasant, effervescent
drink which usually makes pimples
disappear; cleanses the blood and is
excellent for the kidneys as WE'LL
