After the withdrawal, those who re-
manned passed the following resolu-
ton:
"The citizens of Trail county, as
sembled at a publicly called meeting
in the court house at Hillsboro for the
purpose of discussing the advisability
of adopting House Bill A as the pro-
posed constitution of North Dakota,
do hereby resolve that we are OPP
posed to said House Bill A for two
principal reasons, namely:
First-Because said proposed con-
stitution Is unsafe and not the kind
of constitution that the people of
North Dakota want as their organic
law.
Second-Because the procedure pro-
posed to be followed in adopting said
constitution is unreasonable, uncon-
stitutional, and contrary to law.
We would therefore recommend that
the senator and representatives Of
Trail county use their best efforts in
opposing the passage Of said House
Bill a.

HOW EVERY WOMAN IS BEING
REACHED.

The Woman's Committee of the
Council of National Defense is try
ing to reach every woman in the
country. A writer says in the Octo-
Der Woman's Home Companion:
"Take a town of ten thousand in
habitants anywhere in the United
States and see how this organization
works there. What the .Woman's
Committee of the Council of National
Defense asks of this town is that it
should form, for the period of the
war, a central committee, in which
every society, every church, every
school in the community shall be
represented. 1t asks that no agency
be overlooked, big or little, rich or
poor, black or white, Catholic, Jew
ish or Protestant. 1t needs no ar
guing that with such a committee
in every community, practically
every woman can be reached.
1--WE are told that this is not prac-
tical, that the American woman
won't come into any such all-inclu-
sive group, that she thinks in terms
of her societies and her causes, and
not in national terms. Well, if this
has been true, something has happen
ed to the American woman of to-
day, just as fast as the plan of or
ganization of the Woman's Commit
tee of the Council of National De-
Tense becomes known, these demo-
cratic groups are forming.
''In order to find out just what the
various organizations were doing, and
to what degree they were prepared
to coordinate their efforts, the Wo-
mans Committee invited the presi-
dents, or their representatives, of all
the national groups on its list to
at headquarters. Although
the notice was short, seventy-five or
sent representatives.. In
speeches these women
told of the work they were doing and
offered their full allegiance to the
Government in its effort to unity the
Woman Power"

argument with woman, even ii she
knows positively that she is dead
wrong.
Kissing the "Sammies."

In conversation with a handsome
and intelligent Paris woman the
other day she expressed mingled sur.
prise and disgust that French wo-
men so far forgot themselves as to
rush into the streets of Paris
(France) and kiss our American
soldiers when they landed in that
country recently. She declared that
it was an open insult to womanhood
and the entire feminine sex.
We had to disagree with this
estimable woman. We had read the
same news dispatches telling of the
joy and gladness that filled the
hearts of the French people when
they saw Gen. Pershing's men march
ing before their doors. We had put
an entirely different Interpretation
upon those news stories from that of
the Paris woman who condemned her
sisters across the seas for what she
considered "unladylike actions
We know the French people are a
demonstrative people. But they real
ize what war is. They know more
about what this war is in a minute
than we have learned in three years.
They know what these American
boys are going to face, know how
little of home comfort, of the ten
derness of womanhood lies before
them. iNi nh
The women of France who demon
strated their joy at seeing our Amer
lean soldiers marching to the aid of
their own husbands, brothers and
sons have seen what it is to offer life
and limb, and they don't think any
welcome they could give too good
for the men whose fate it is to go
into the trenches. They take their
own way of welcoming and hearten-
ing our boys. They see no rudeness
in it, nor is there evil in their minds.
Out of hearts that have bled for three
strenuous years they offer love and
breathe benedictions upon the sons of
other mothers who must now join in
the sacrifice. The women of France
are taking their own way of showing
our "Sammies'' that their prayers
are with them as they go through the
streets of the French capital on their
way to mo Mans Land" We do
not think any American woman
should object.
1t won't be long until the Paris
boys will be sending postcards from
the camps to their friends at home
bearing that favorite phrase: Am
having a fine time. Wish you were
here"
