Volunteer System Failure.
The volunteer system OF prepared
ness has proven a failure, he de-
clared, and the only method is com
pulsory training. He himself had
urged preparedness in congress and
was criticised for II and charged
with favoring the munitions makers.
In his judgment the most prevail
ent evil In the country today Is the
insidious argument being put forth
by certain organizations that this
will be tho last war" The United
States, he asserted, will be in greater
danger during the ten years follow
ing this war than II ever was.

He had told his friends At home

FISK SAYS AMENDMENTS
SHOULD BE DEFEATED
Former Supreme Court Judge Says
Our Constitution Has Given Uni
versaI Satisfaction for Thirty
Years and Points to Dangers
in Change.

Chas. j. Fisk, who was supreme
judge of North Dakota for ten years,
gives his views on the proposed con-
stitutional amendments on which the
voters will be given an opportunity to
cast their ballots next Tuesday, al
follows:
As an argument in favor Of adopt
ing the many proposed amendments to
our fundamental law, the Socialist
press, among other false and ground
less assertions, charge that the State
Constitution is the work OF the agents
of so-called Big Biz. This is not only
absurd upon it's face, but an insult to
each of the 2,441 loyal citizens whose
votes adopted such constitution at We
polls on October LIST, 1889.
The fact is that the Constitution
was copied to a large extent from the
Constitution Of the older states which
had been tested by many years OF ex-
perence and found not wanting and it
was carefully discussed and consider
ed not only in the Constitutional Con-
vention, as the debates in that Con-
vention disclose, but it was also thor
oughly discussed and carefully con-
sidered by the people before it was ad-
opted at the election of October j.
1889
| challenge the Socialists, or anyone
else, to point to a single provision
therein that is favorable to corpora
tons and Big Business or inimical to
the best interests of the people.
Our Constitution has given very
good if not universal satisfaction for
nearly thirty years and until the pres
ent discovery of Mr.. Townley that it
is not suited to the propagation OF
socialism or to his various get-rlch-
quick enterprises.
The proposed amedments should by
all means be defeated at the ensuing
election and this in my opinion is by
far the most important question tor
decision at such election.

price. This price is the price Of any
of the above merchandise at the time
it enters the state at Fargo, Grand
Forks or other eastern terminal. The
committee for Ward county has taken
these prices and added freight to-
Minot to obtain the above prices. This
makes the price at Minot the price for
all Ward county, since the freight rate
to other points in Ward county is the
same practically as Minot. All retail
dealers in commodities listed in the
published list will be required to sell
at published price and those giving
extra service must not sell at more
than ten per cent above the published
price.

Mary Pickford's latest picture is from the famous novel by William J. Locke, who is recognized as one of the best authors of the present age. MT. Locke's novel was adapted fcr screen presentation by Francis Ma rion, the clever scenarost who has adapted many of Little Mary's big gest successes. The picture was pro- duced for Paramount under the di- rection of Marshall Neilan, who was responsible for ''Rebecca of Sunny brook Farm" and "The Little Prin- cess. In the supporting case are seen Conway Tearle, as Mary's lead ing man;- Camille Ankewich, Ida Wa terman. Herbert Standing, Josephine Crowell and Mrs. Coonleu.

Ernest Lynwood, the best blackface comedian that has ev- er appeared in this city "stops" the show at every performance with his clever and original sayings and jokes, and his parodies are sue-fire laugh getters. The Globe Trotters' quar- tette render sentimental and comic songs in their own clever style and if you enjoy good singing don't fail to hear the songs that they are using in Little Miss Money" Porter and Weaver, those nifty chaps, are still more than making good with their duets so beautifully rendered.
