OF these permits the governor to re-
move workmen's compensation bureau
commissioners with or without cause.
Under the present law, removal can
be made only for cause.
The other referred measure, chang
ing the administration Of insolvent
banks, would abolish the office Of state

Two Amendments Offered
Two constitutional amendments
proposed by the last legislature COM
plete the ballot.
One provides for consolidation of
county offices in counties according
to two classifications Of population.
In counties having less than $1,000 in
habitants the county Judge would be-
come clerk Of the district court, while
in counties OF 5000 population or less,
the register Of deeds becomes clerk
Of the district court and county Judge.
II approved, the. amendment takes
effect at the next statewide election
In June, 1894.
The other amendment changes the
procedure In reading bills before the
legislature and is aimed to speed up
the legislative machinery. Under the
present constitutional provision, the
first and third reading Of bills must
be at length and the second reading
may be by title. The first and Sec
ond readings are the only ones that
may be had on the same day.
The proposed amendment would
permit the first reading to be by title
only, unless reading at length is de-
manded. The second reading would
be at length, but the first and sec
ond readings may not be on the same
day.

and you find you have to pay . two

Bill LANCER
Newspapers are not telling the
truth when they say the sales tax Is
not replacement tax" the governor
continued.
He then told how the last legisla-
ture, (which was well worth the $685.
600 1t cost the taxpayers" reduced the
appropriations from 10000, 900 to ~
SOC, 900 at the last session.
Shifts Burden From Farmer
This relieved the farmer, he said.
1.-THE sales tax serves to SHIFT the
burden from the farmer to the thou
sands Of persons who have been pay
ing no taxes for years. including fell
ons who at times have received free
board and room at the state peniten-
tiary from the taxpayers.
He declared the sales tax was need
ed to meet bond interest obligations,
totalling millions, as well as to finance
rural schools.
North Dakota will not default on
itS debts as long Is I am governor" he
declared. LANCER charged that though
the state bonded indebtedness was In
creased by $36, 900 900 before his term,
since his inauguration the indebted
ness has not been increased and he
promised that the state VIII not sell
one more dollars worth Of bonds rs

ployes. which he likened to pigs suck
