section 81. under which the old form
of emergency clause was established.
Grace concurs with Justice Birdzell
whose opinion goes into an exhaustive
analysis ofthe initiative and referendum
act and its effect on the emergency
clause. Both contend that the
emergency clause attached to the board
OF regents act was not in conformity
with section %. and that therefore
Governor Hanna acted without
ing the present members of the state
board Of regents at time when
under initiative and referendum
amendment. the statute under which
he acted. was not operative.
One Question Left.
Today's opinion refers to the tenure
OF Office Of Crawford. White & Taylor.
The only question is as to the COVER
flor's right to now name successors to
Scow and Power when their terms

to do so Jan. Is, as provided by law,
it not having been considered by the
court except In indirect way by Robin

Attorney General LANCER advised
today his staff is at work on an
opinion requested by the governor as
to the proper method of nominating
Candidates for congress from the First
district. There is little authority on
which to base an opinion says LANCER
and probably the opinion will not be
completed until next Wednesday.

ROOSEVELT FOR
STOPPING GRAIN
Use IN SPIRITS

Chicago, April 2s.-Prohibition of
the use of grain for the manufacture
of alcoholic drinks during the war,
was urged today by Theodore Roose-
welt in his first war speech delivered
here at a noon luncheon given by the
Chicago branch of the National
Security league. Tonight he will de-
liver his principal address at the
stockyards amphitheatre which
seated $4,000 persons.
In his luncheon address Colonel
Roosevelt also urged obligatory mill
tary training. the expansion and I'M
provement of the navy and asserted
that an expeditionary force should be
sent to France at once. Present con-
scription plans were to deny service
to many who wished to volunteer. He
remarked that when England adopted
CONSUMPTION she did not decline the
services of volunteers from Canada
and Australia.
Colonel Roosevelt was given q re-
ception reminiscent of the days when
he was president. In his progress
through the streets from railway sta
ton to hotel he was welcomed by
cheers and waving of hats. The colonel
stood up in his automobile waving his
black SLOUGH hat and occasionally
shaking hands with himself in Chinese
fashion. Police, national guardsmen
and bluejackets formed his escort.
The streets and windows along the
way were damned with a cheering,
flag-waVing throng.

A considerable part Of the force Of

points along this stretch the British

than a mile, as far as Arleux and

About
Appendicitis

Appendicitis is caused by an infiamna-
ton of the appendix. The cause of the
Inflammation is usually consultation.
and many believe the only help for it
is to have it cut out, but this is a mis-
take and a leading New York doctor
says, TT will not be long before the
medical doctors win feel ashamed to
perform an operation for appendicitis"
And DO not believe there is one case
out of one hundred which needs an
operation. II you had bruised finger
and 1t got sore and infiamed would
you want to cut it of on account OF it?
Would you not try to have this in
Illumination taken out and the wound
healed up? And still 1t would not be
nearly as dangerous an operation as to
have the appendix taken out, and 1t
would not affect your future health,
which it does when your. appendix is
removed. It is just as easy to take
out the Inflammation from your APP
pendix as 1t is from any other part OF
your body. We have cured hundreds
of them and never lost a case, and we
leave your system in as good condition
as it was before you had the appendi-
citis, which cannot be said If, you had
an operation. We treat all kinds of
diseases except contagious diseases,
and We have had splendid success and
we consider an acute case of append
citis about the easiest case to handle
that we get. If you are afflicted with
appendicitis go to the Nelson Sani-
tarium, 405 Eighth Street South,
Fargo, N. D., and get well. We use no
medicine and no operation, but we cure
where others fail.
