NORTH DAK0TA'S
NEW LAWS NOW
ARE IN EFFECT.
Farmer Revolution Completed Yes.
terday Afternoon at $50 When
Governor Signed Last Bill.
(From Courier News)
(By C. X. Gummerson)

Bismarck, Jan. 2O.-With the ut
most simplicity the seven constitu-
tional amendments initiated by the
people and adopted by them at the
last election were made a part of the
organic law Of North Dakota this af-
ternoon when Speaker L. L. Stair Of
the house, Lieutenant Governor How
ard Wood, president Of the senate and
Goevrnor Lynn ]. Frazier signed the
engrossed documents.
Speaker Stair affixed his signature
to House Bill No. 6, the first of the
amendments, at exactly 2:1O p. m. in
the presence of the house. The only
indication that anything out of the
ordinary was about to take place was
the usual announcement made by
Chief Clerk George A. Totten, who
said: "The speaker is about to sign
House Bill No. g." As Speaker Stair
picked up his pen and signed his name
a broad grin spread across his face.
He completed the signing Of the last
amendment at 2:14 p. m.
Although still suffering from bad
cold and the symptoms of light at
tack of flu, Speaker Stair made the
trip to the capitol expressly for the
purpose of signing the seven mea-
sures. Talking to a group OF legisla-
tors just before the house convened at
2 o'clock, Mr.. Stair said: "1'm de-
termined to sign those amendments
today if it's the last thing I do in this
world. After l get my John Han
cock on them all, I'm going to go
right back to the hotel and go to bed
and stay there until get WE'LL"
Governor Completes the Task
The measures were then taken over
to the senate for Lieutenant Govern
or Woods signature. There, as in the
house, the signing of the important
documents was without ostentation.
Lieutenant Governor Wood finished
with the bills at 2:45 p. M, and then
had them delivered to Governor Fraz-
ier's office at 2:50 p. m. Governor
Frazier was out of his office and did
not return until after o'clock. I'm
mediately upon his return he read
each of the engrossed bills, compar-
ed them with the original and then
signed his name at $500 p. m. He
finished by placing his name to the
public ownership amendment, which
is perhaps the most important one OF
the lot. It gives the people the op-
portunity to erect the state-owned
terminal elevators and flour mills
they have been fighting for for the
last two decades.
The farmer governors characters.
tic smile was very much in evidence
when he finished with the last amend
ment.
"Well it's all over with now," he
remarked as he rose from his desk.
