It is related that when Buffalo Bill, that good old scout, was ill the other | day he asked his physician what were his chances. The physician, according to accepte reports, made a reply that meant his} patient had no chance at all. “How long?” he asked, and was told that the end was close at hand. To _ others the physician seems to have ald the sick man would die in 36 jours. ‘Asia matter of fact, he lived long- er.(than that, meantime amazing the doctor by his display of increasing strength and vitality. FSNg doubt the doctor here was hon- estly-loyal to the traditions of his job.~ (Most doctors do this kind of ‘thing. and sincerely believe it is right. But the great question is. whether, in view~ of what we know now about miné.and body isn’t it about time to throw overboard these ancient and dangerous traditions?

Lo you know that deserted mothers are not permitted to participate in the benefits of the mothers’ pension laws? Do you know that the first state- wide mothers’ pension law enacted in Illinois in 1911 provided for the pen- sioning of deserted mothers with de- pendent children, as well as all other dependent children? Do you know that certain interests succeeded two years later in changing this first mothers’ pension law so that it could not benefit deserted mothers “at all and that on July 1, 1913, hun- dreds of deserted mothers of depend- ent children were cut off of the moth- ers’ pension payroll and thrown onto “charity,” with the result that these children were taken away from their mothers and sent to institutions? Do you know that 27 states, adopt- ing mothers’ pensions, followed with the same kind of. a law, excepting only . Michigan?

Do you know that the legislature of |every state each session is importun- ed to appropriate more millions of the taxpayers’ money to build and main- tain more institutions to keep these deserted children after they are taken away from deserted mothers? Do you know that some of these deserting diseased fathers are brought ‘back home under threat of imprisca- ment if they do not live with their families and that they do live home for a few years more and breed more defective children? Do you know that the increase in births of defective and sub-normil children has increased over 20 per cent in the last ten years? Do you know that if the present sys- tem of compelling good mothers to keep bad husbands by the fear of los- ing all the children they now have, if they refused to breed more chil- dren and kick the rascal husband out, has filled to overflowing all the in- stitutions now built and wil bankrupt every state that continues it many years longer? ‘Now that you do know this, what do you intend to do abent it?

It would not ‘be a saving of four cents a month to the common people, ; but would, on the contrary, shift upon them much of the postage expense of the big mailing houses, especially the stock-jobbers. To meet the reducticn in revenue, the postoffice department would be empowered to increase the rate on newspapers, magazines and ers, in these days of trust prices for paper, would have to shift the in- creased cost over upon the readers. through which Big Business seeks to make all the people carry part of its expenses. There is no public demand for “penny drop letter postage.” What Postmaster General Burleson hears is the seductive whisper of Big Business and the indications are that he's got an earful of it, more’s the pity.

The North Dakota supreme court this morniug confirmed the constitu- tionality of the law which enables tho state to pension mothers when it re-/ versed the Cass district court’s deci-| ision in favor of Cass county in pro-| ceedings brought against Bessie R. Nixon, the mother of seven minor children and who had been granted a pension of $8 the month for each child by the Cass county court. The action was brought by: State's Attorey W. A. Fowler to test the Con- stitutionality of the act, The district court found for Fowler, and Pierce. Tenneson & Cupler, attorneys for Mrs. Nixon, then appealed to the supreme court. The latter finds that Sec. 3 of the constitution applies to mothers’ pensions in providing the duties of the county courts in connection with guardianship and administration in the interests of minors. “Chapter 175 of the laws of 1915 (the pension act) is not in contravention of section 172 of the constitution and is therefore not unconstitutional,” the Supreme court holds, The court also Tules that where @ to North Dakota in March, 1890, at-} commercial course at Fargo college, /® Woman ts eT E ier Roy B.

Many covered the distance by foot. At 1 o'clock, three-fourths of the gal Suffragists were in prominence about the floor of the statehouse all morning. Their lobby: ing was also in-force in the lobbies of. the hotels. + KE. W. Everson of Kulm predicted that both measures would carry by , big majorities, Another representa- |tive confident of the passage of the ‘suffrage bills was Stewart Wilson of Fargo. The fair lobbyists at the capitot showed this morning th? eifects of several days’ hard work. They have seldom “turned in" before 1 o'clock in the morning. and they have found pol- itics a strenuous game. Thay are hopeful today, although not over con- fident, as with the house in its pres- ent mood, any one of a number of things might happen. Still in Committee. It is not expected that the house will get the Hagan bill to revise the constitution for several days. The house committee which has this under consideration is taking it up section by section.

Geogra- phically, being located south of the Cannon Ball river and east of the Adams county line, they belong to Sioux county, and they probably wilt be presented to Sioux by a special act of the present legislative assembly. \ WANTED, AT ONCE.
