HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Walton of Antler has regis
tered to take the reviews prepara-
tory to entering the Junior class next
year.
The Baccalaureate address will be
delivered by Rev. Maunder next Sum
day evening at 8 o'clock at the Grand.
The music will be furnished by the
chorus classes of the high school.
Superintendent Darling attended
the state meeting of city superintend-
ents at Grand Forks last Thursday
and Friday.
Commencement exercises will be
held in the Grand this year and will
occur Thursday evening, May 31st.
The class will consist of 26 members,
13 boys and 13 girls. The staying
qualities of Bottineau high school stu
dents are equalled by no other. school
in the state as is shown by the fact
that SO students have been graduated
in the last four years. Minot beats
us this year by one, probably on ac-
count of the stimulus of the new high
school building.
We are wondering what will happen
to our chemistry class next year since
we lost the new building.

program:

WHO ARE THE ''SLACKERS?"

As time will not permit your
acceptance through the press,
your presence at this meeting
will suffice.
Sincerely,
L. l.. Stair.
In the April 27th issue of the Bot
tineau County News Mr.. Sandstrom
accepted my offer as follows:
WILL MEET MIR. STAIR
l just came in to Bottineau
from my farm at Antler this, Fri
day, morning and knew nothing
of his challenge to meet him at
Newburg tomorrow night till l
reached here. l am busy seed
ing and have to 60 back this eve
ming to the farm. l will be glad
to meet Mr.. Stair however at a
later date when seeding is over
and the farmers have more time.
Will be very pleased to meet him
at any point convenient for all
concerned.
Signed, L. P. Sandstro,n.
Up to this point there had been & -
solutely not one word said about the
Republican" platform, which Mr..
Sandstrom now wants to debate.
In the May 4th issue of the Bot
tineau County News the senator
brings out his proposition to debate
all Of the house members from Bot
tineau county upon the following
question:
"Resolved, That The Action of
The Senate Majority and The
House Minority Conformed To
The Issues Involved in The
League) Republican Platform"
This offer has, I note been accepted
by Represe,- a':r-cs Miller and Hagan,
conditioned upon the senator's MAX
ing good on his offer to debate me.
The same week l authorized the
Courant to say that I would gladly
accept Mr.. Sandstrom's offer in the
News of April 9th, which authoriza-
tion was printed in the following Ian
guage:
In the April 9th issue of the
News Mr.. Sandstrom offers to de-
bate Representative Stair at
"any point convenient for all
concerned"
Ot6lK 0utUOIlLCS ClC SOuA
ant to state that this offer is ac-
cepted unconditionally-that he is
prepared to meet the senator at
any time and any place in Bot
tineau county that he may desig-
nate, and also asks him to suggest
someone who would preside over
the meeting in q fair and impair.
tial manner.
Surely the senator is not so dense
as to believe that this implies an &C.
ceptance Of his offer of May 4th to
debate the republican platform.
But such appears to be the case, be-
cause in last weeks issue Of the News
appears the following over Mr.. Sand
strom's signature:
The Bottineau Courant, claim
ing to speak with authority, &C.
cepts for Mr.. Stair my challenge
to debate the following question:
RESOLVED, That the action Of
the Senate majority and the
House minority conformed to the
issues involved in the 1916 cam
paign and redeemed the pledges
enunciated by and embodied in
the (League) Republican plat
form.
Here is bran new proposition,
differing somewhat even from the
question accepted for debate by Rep
resentatives Miller and Hagan, as can
be verified by referring back to the
senator's challenge of May 4th.
II Mr.. Sandstrom can thus go on
and pervert the question for discus
sion as he sees ft, what assurance
have / that he will not insist upon
debatint ths age Of Ann or the fourth

Editor Courant:-
After supposing that all the ar
rangements for the proposed debate
between myself and Senator Sand
strom had been completed to his en-
tire satisfaction, am certainly amaz-
ed at the proposition which he sets
forth in the Courant and a number of
other county newspapers last week,
protesting to believe that this is his
original challenge.
have never proposed to debate the
merits of the republican platform
with Mr.. Sandstrom, nor anyone else,
for the simple reason that l am not,
nor have I ever been, republican, or
claimed to be one.
Mr.. Sandstrom may be able to sat-
isfy, his conscience, and even some of
his constituents, in the contention that
he has been "within the law as far
as the republican platform is con-
cerned. I owe no allegiance to the re-
publican platform.
am a Nonpartisan and was elected
as such last fall, an analysis of the
vote showing that I received support
from members of all political parties.
It is the platform or program OF
the Nonpartisan League that Mr..
Sandstrom originally agreed to pub
licly debate with me, and not the re-
publican platform, as I shall proceed
to prove.
In the April goth issue of the P"t-
tineau County News Mr.. SanGstIo- o--l
issued the following challenge:
A CHALLENGE.
/ see the so-called Non Partisan
League are advertising a picnic to
be held by them here in June some
time. Perhaps debate would
add interest to the occasion and
do q little towards educating the
people along the lines of II. B.
A, and socialism in general. l
hereby challenge the League lead
ers here or in the state to pub
fc debate at this proposed picnic
in June, at Bottineau; to bring
on their leading speakers, and I
will produce speakers to meet
them to discuse the questions
which are inter: ing the people
these days. We viii pay our share
of any necessary expense at this
y affair.
!
In the April 26th issue of the Bot
tineau Courant, replied to this chal-
lenge as follows:
Hon. L. p. Sandstrom:-
I note that you have issued q
challenge to have House Bill A
debated at the NOnpartisan Pic
mic to be held in Bottineau in
June, you proposing to bring
someone here to defend your
( side of the question.
Now, Mr.. Sandstrom, it seems
to me that YOU are the one to de-
fend your vote on this bill and not
someone hired and brought here
for that purpose.
You and both represented
the voters of Bottineau county
in the fifteenth legislative assem-.
bly,. voted for and supported
House Bill Al. am willing to
defend my action before the v0t-
ers. You opposed and helped de-
feat House Bill A. Are you will
ling to defend your acti0n7
One Of us has misrepresented
the voters who elected us.
Being that you have seen fit
to open up the subject, am will
ling to give you 4 splendid oppor-
tunity Of explaining to large
number Of voters, without wait
ing until June to do SO. On Sat-
urday, April -28, at eight o'clock
in the evening q Nonpartisan
League meeting will be held in
Newburg and / shall be glad to
meet you 1t that time to discuss
with you publicly House Bill A.
