FRAZIER’S MESSAGE. ‘All who heard Governor Frazier de-} liver his first message to the legisla- ture were impressed by the sincerity of the man. There was every evi- dence that he realizes the responsibil- ity vested in him. His honesty of purpose was demon- strated by a strict adherence in his) message to the general program upon | which he made his campaign last| spring. Governor Frazier proposes | to rise or fall on those issues. He is not a politician in the narrow sense | and it is refreshing to witness the frankness with which he approaches state problems, ignoring completely Political expediency and sham. Whatever the views upon the soundness of his economic policies, his message voices the demand ex- pressed at the polls for the institu- tion of certain reform. The creation of a Highway Com- mission along the right lines will as- sist ‘in the good roads propaganda. North Dakota is far behind the pro- gressive states in systematic and economic road ‘biilding. Thousands of dollars are wasted yearly by slip- shod methods employed by the vari- ous township and county boards, Gov- ernor Frazier emphasizes the neces- sity for immediate legislation so that North Dakota can avail herself of , federal aid. Minimum wage legislation is along the line of progressive thought. ts application, however, should not be restricted. As..dor. a. labor bureau, the state hhas the necessary machinery in the department of agriculture and labor and Governor Frazier indicates that there should be special organization in that office to take care of the im- portant problem of labor supply. Placing the inspection of oil under Dr. Ladd of the state agricultural col- lege might work out excellently. Everyone in the state except the poli- ticians will welcome the elimination of politics from the oil inspection de- partment. It would be just as well to place the dairy work in the same hands, leaving the department of agriculture free to devote its energies to the la- “bor and immigration problems of the state. The hotel inspection law is now a farce, a political sinecure. State food inspectors make their sanitary spections of the hotels and there is; ‘no reason why this work should be duplicated. The scope of the inspec: | tion could be broadened without ma-| terial increase in the expense to the| State. In turning the work of the fire mar- | shal’s office over to the state insur-| ance department, interests of the state will be served better. i No one can object to a sensible state hail law, properly administered. | The present abortion is worse than no law at all. All friction between the state tax €ommission and iboard of equalization should be eradicated without delay. ‘The tax commission should act in an} advisory capacity and become legal- ly affiliated with the woard. Toere is @ pressing need for reforms in the administration of our tax laws, but > 4t is necessary to move slowly. The rural school is given consider- able space in the message. Not enough attention is paid to the sec- * ondary institutions. Control over the common schools should be more close- ly centered in the state government. . Through the proper ‘application of State aid, state control and super- vision can be ‘strengthened and the * Sptandards of our rural schools im- proved. *¢ Bveryone can endorse the closing -gentences of Governor Frazier’s mes- “Let us all so act that our state i be a better place in which to je; a better place in which to make children so that they may the best advantages and make tration tal over the reins of gov- ernment with practically a clear | | sheet. | message. His recommendations |come from four years of experienc and contact with state problems and | they should assist the legislature i passing the necessary laws to relieve certain conditions in the various de-| partments. | |CLUB ROOMS, EVERY MEMBER IS POISONED BY THOUSANDS shall have performed our simple du- ty.” CREDIT OF. STATE. Governor Hanna in his message gave an excellent review of the fin- ancial condition of the state, in addi- tion to some sound advice that the legislative committees and the gener al body will find valuable in’ fram ing laws. impair the excellent credit of | the state. Whatever the shortcomings of the recent administration were, it re box in} tires with the state’s strong the best condition since statehood. The bonded debt has been decreas- ed from $937,200 to $462,000, There} are very few deficits. Four years ago the state owed in excess of al possible revenue some $200,000. This has been paid and the new adminis It is impossible here to review all the good points of Governor Hanna's Governor Hanna renews many © the recommendations of his message to the Fourteenth legislature, espe cially as regards tenure of office for] legislators and other state official: North Dakota has nothing to ga in building up speculative markets aly St. Pant or Minneapolis. The process ; of cleaning grain and preparing it for market should be done within the} borders of the state as far as possi- ble. | Of course, it is impossible to organ: ; ize at once to handle the grain, but} there is no reason why the farmers should not enjoy the profits derive by a systematic plan of marketing grain. | This is a young state, comparative: ; ly speaking. For years Minneapoli: has been its market and little effort} has been put forth to supervise the of the «state's major) | i DEVELOP NORTH DAKOTA, H crops. It the league can work out a prac- tical plan that will give the farmer more for his produce, every citizen should back it to the limit. What is good for the farmer is good for the| city. | North Dakota has not paid enough attention to methods of distribution. It dumps its grain into the great pri- mary markets as fast as it can, tak- an inspection over which it exacts no control, Governor ‘Frazier and his advisers can well apply themselves to work- ing out a more profitable plan of dis- tribution. Let us retain some of this “easy money” here that has been building up the Minneapolis market. Probably all that is necessary is just a little application of good busi- ness sense, assisted by the proper} laws to safeguard the farmer in the| merchandising of his produce. The problem is a big and intricate} one and cannot be settled without study and deliberation. i LARGE CROWD ATTENDS GRAND THEATER OPENING A large crowd attended the opening last night of the Grand theater under the management of Mr. Wingreene | and Mr. Bauer.

Allow the man’s vital- ity to be reduced to a certain point, and he is ripe for any of these weak- nesses, or certain conditions which we call disease.” Through failure of kidneys to act, through congestion, inflammation, any person’s condition is ripe for dis- of to fasten its hold upon the sys- em.
