On March 22nd, mass meeting
was held at the City Hall, addressed
by Miss Gubbelman of the Normal
faculty on "Women and Political
Party" -

state where women enjoyed full fran
chise was able to speak from exper-
ience., She announced at the outset
that she did not wish to change the
political belief of her hearers, but
hoped to make each republican,a bet
ter republican and each democrat a
better democrat. She emphasized the
necessity of making a study of politi-
cal questions and public affairs, so
that women could perforsm their duty
of voting intelligently.

meeting will be held, and a speaker
secured to address the women on the
referred laws which come up to be

only the selling Of, liquor. 1t was
many years later until the law was 50
amended as to prohibit agents taking
orders for Intoxicating liquor in North
! Dakota, and making that solicitation a
crime.
The effect of the anti-cigarette law
of this state by it's provisions is no
different than the former prohibition
law which permitted the solicitation
of orders for Intoxicating liquors. The
legislature of this state made the Gig
arctic an outlaw and prohibited its
sale in the State of North Dakota. In
enacting this law, as in passing ev-
ery other law, the legislature had au-
thority TO regulate cigarettes in North
Dakota alone. 1t could not 60 beyond
the Red River on the east, or the Mon
tana border on the west, or the South
Dakota line on the south, or the Ca
madam boundary on the north of US.
It had to confine the effects of Its
legislation TO it's own state. The opin-
ion given by the Attorney General re-
lating to the anti-cigarette law holds
Just exactly chat. The sale of the
cigarette in North Dakota is, and has
been since 1918, prohibited and made
misdemeanor. 1t is not an offense for
an outside tobacco dealer in a foreign
state to sell cigarettes in that foreign
state to people in North Dakota. The
legislature, of course, did not have au
thority to direct the conduct of per-
sons other than those within its own
borders. This truth is too plain for
anyone but a Non-Partisan League
editor to misunderstood.
The fact that the order transmitted
to the dealer selling cigarettes in the
adjoining state is handed to an agent
instead of being dropped in the post
Office in North Dakota, can in no way
change the place where the sale oc-
ours. 1t is unlawful to sell cigarettes
in North Dakota, and the Attorney
General has so held. 1t is not a viola
ton of the law for an agent to take
an order for cigarettes in North Dako-
ia that are to be sold in an adjoining
state, any more than it is unlawful to
deposit the order for those cigarettes
in the mails.
This is the simple truth which the
editors are having so
much difficulty in compromising and
disappearing.

Miss Emma De Witt, home demon
stration agent, then gave an outline
Of the work she, intends to do in
Barnes County along the line Of de-
monstrations to aid in producing
more and better poultry and especially
how to provide better quality Of
eggs. Miss De Witt has already done
considerable work in poultry demon
strations. One of the things the as
ISOLATION voted to do was to stand be-
hind the demonstration nd ,other work
Of Miss De Witt has undertaken and
also to encourage the Boys and Girls
club work in poultry projects. This
work should yield profit several-fold.
It's possibilities cannot be over en-
phasized.
The meeting was harmonious in ev-
cry respect. Those present went away
with a feeling that now that the war
was over more definite attention could
be paid to the interests for which
the Barnes County Poultry Associa-
ton was organized to foster, namely,
more and better poultry for Barnes
County people.
