STATE COMMENT

Bottineau County News: Aren't the
League bosses a little bit inconsistent :?
When Robinson was so very anxious
to take office the first Of December he
demanded the exact literal interpreta-
ton of the constitution which had
provided for the judges Of the state
originally, to take their seats the first
Of December. because of the exigency
of the time. After the first judges
however none observed that rule, as
it was understood the rule was for
the first ones only. But strict literal
construction was demanded by the
league in order to give Robinson ana
the other newly elected Justices the
job soon as possible. Then when it
comes to the proposition of changing
the constitution to get it to read to
suit the league. the most liberal in
depreciation is demanded. 1t must be
construed to read and mean some
thing else besides what it says literal
~. The two ideas do not correspond
according to our idea. The constitu-
ton declares exactly how it shall be
changed or amended, but our friends
the league propose to go about it in
their way. 1t would look better if
we We're consistent in our course.

THE MARKET WORLD|
PEACE RUMORS IN
MARKET DROP PRICES

Chicago. Jan. 23.-Peace talk and
a lack of any foreign demand except
from Holland led today to lower
prices for wheat. The market closed
heavy. 3-4 to 2 Ia net lower. with
May at $1.S4 ga to. $1.84 7-S, and
July at 1852 Ia. Corn finished un-
changed to a shade lower; oats off
1-S to 1-2c, and provisions with gains
of % to G2c.
Aggressive selling by houses with
eastern connections took place as the
close of the wheat market drew near,
and as the effect Of crop damage fears
seemed on the wane. One of the con-
tributory causes was the increased
seriousness of the railway freight sit-
uation east as q result Of an embar-
go to begin tonight on the Grand
Trunk railroad.
Corn was relatively firm owing to
reports that 75 per cent Of the Argen-
tine crop had received irreparable
damage. Oats reflected the down
turns in wheat. Sales of 100000
bushels of oats for Europe acted az
only an Offset in part.

The colonel said that until an en-

1T is we'll to remember however,
that unless the words of our govern

idle and empty words, we must re-

homely fact.
