place Governor Lynn J. Frazier, Atty.

those offices. 1t was decided to place
three names in nomination for gov
ernor, those of former U. S. Senator
A. j. Gronna, Senator j. E. Davis and
Louis F, Crawford. The Ward coun-
ty delegation decided not to place any
candidate in nomination, but agreed
to be the first to second the nolnina-
ton made. When the convention re-
convened, j. F. T. O'Connor, who made
such a brilliant campaign for COVER
nor against Lynn j. Frazier in No
vember, placed the name OF K. A.
Nestos of Minot in nomination for
governor. Mr.. O'Connor made a
wonderful speech IN 1avOr OF Cne MI
not man and he had no more than
concluded when from the various parts
Of the house, filled with the 525 dele
gates. delegates arose to second the
nomination. The nomination was
actually seconded by B. A. Dickinson
of Ryder, chairman Of the Ward coun-
ty delegation and Mr.. Nestos was the

the leading members of St. Leo's con-
gregation and had done much for ST..
Joseph's hospital and the Knights Of
Columbus. He had served as grand
knight and financial escretary of the
Knights Of Columbus Council and also
secretary Of the state council. There
was no finer citizen in Minot than
Mr.. Renwald and no one was held
in higher esteem.

The very best of feeling prevailed
in the convention at it's close, there
being complete harmony on the ques-
ton of recall. When the conven-
ton opened, it appeared that a ma
ority of the delegates were against a
recall at this time, but it appeared
that after considering the political sit
uation, they were unanimous for the
recall in November.
Upon the recommendation Of L. l..
Twitchell, speaker Of the house at the
last legislative session, the conven-
ton decided on introducing consti-
tutional amendment to be voted upon
in the November election, providing
for the security Of our state bonds
to be backed UP by the state rather
than by the Bank of North Dakota.
This would improve the credit of the
state, it was argued, and enable the
state to sell bonds.

wastefulness In Use Of coal.

OH may possibly supplant coal for
heating purposes and for the driving

hold It's own place in other why's, for
oil has little to give us in the way OF
byproducts. When we burn coal we
use II in the most wasteful way pos
sible, obtaining from II less than a
fifth of the heat which II is capable
Of giving out, and making no use at
all OF the colors, the sweetness, the
disinfectants or the healing medicines
that are hidden within II.
