fore his majesty. Never were these words of truth and freedom which Christ spoke more needed than today thingsf Freedom and truth, these are the things men need.
 Men are not only prejudiced against each other. but against God because of preconceived false notions. We must be mentally free. and free in will also. Fear and prudential considera- tions paralyze our efforts. Only Christ who is the Truth. can make us free You ask, with Pilate, What is truth :? truth? Then I say. Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. Christ came to make a man belong to himself. not somebody else. Christ's freedom is not rant nor hallucination; it's the horse sense of Christianity
 Liberty is not license to do as we please, but freedom to do as we ought. This applies to nations as well as in dividuals. Jesus said, "I am the way the truth and the life. No man com eth unto the Father but by me-" To really experience God as Father, and know all men of all nations as broth CTS is the only true freedom.

TWO NEW PLANS
TO REVISE THE
CONSTITUTION
Opposing Methods in Senate
and House May Cause
Deadlock.
(By Tom Parker Junkin. J

Bismarck, N. d.. Feb. 5.-The ques-
tlon OF revision OF the constitution ia

tempt by the house in following secret
caucus behest of revision by legisla-
tive enactment, house bill A, which
was killed in senate.
Measures providing for constitu-
ticEal convention will be introduced
III both houses during the present
week.
The senate measure will be a modi.
fication of the Mcbride bill and will
provide for the submission to the peo-
pie Of the question of calling con.
vention. This will be voted on by
the people at the primaries in June
1919, the delegates to be tentatively
nominated ct the same time.
General Election.
The election OF delegates will follow
at the general election in November
The convention would meet early the
following year, and the new constitu.
tion would be submitted at q special
eelcticn to be called later.
The senate will pass this measure
but its fate in the house is problema-
tical.
Leaders Of the league have beer

current resolution calling for a con.
ventior to revise the constitution al
an early date. The exact procedure
Of selecting delegates and submitting
the draft of the states charter cannot
be known until later in the week
after it has been submitted tor a
secret caucus.
The house will doubtless pass the
measure, but its fate in the senate is
problematical.
So there is every prospect for a
deadlock on revision unless one side
or the other gives way somewhat

While "Big Five" Directs

Have Assured League Lead

ments Will be Passed.
{By Tom Parker Jiinkin.)

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 5.-If men,
bers Of the Nonpartisan league who
are not being blindly led by leaders
looking out for their own interests
first, they would canvass the work
the senate has done to put the pro-
gram of the league into effect, would
find scarcely that one item of i'm
portance had been neglected.
While the senate was considering
house bill a.. leaders Of the house
begged senators to amend the bill SO
as to remove some Of the most OBJ
jectionable. features and send 1t back
that 1t would be passed.
Some of the leaders who used the
steam roller ruthlessly on the minor
ity. and refused to listen to appeals
for amendments, were among those
who asked the senate to do these
things. They were met with the re-
Ply that they should have done it
themselves and not ask the senate
fire." fir pun '''si e"sS'"0'' '0' o' '"s
They further were told that the
contents of the proposed new consti-
tuition was not the Issue. but principle
involved in attempting to foist onto
the people of the state q revision by
legislature, not elected for that pur-
pose.
They were told still further that
the senate would pass the following
measures: for financing terminal
elevator. for state hail insurance, for
farm land Improvements exemption
from taxation, for rural credits. and
for proper school aid.
In addition there is a sentiment in
the senate to pass the amendment to
the constitution to raise the state debt
| limit to a reasonable sum. say S10.-
100000 to carry out such Of the
league program as should be deemed
! expedient by a vote Of the people.
And still further, the senate is
strong for submitting the question OF
revision OF the constitution to the
people and will certainly pass a res
olution to that effect Thus. there il
no just reason for the statements that
the senate is reactionary, and seeking
to delay what is known as the cause
Of the people," but instead is working
earnestly to carry out the will of the
people in a fair and just manner.
