Our Service Flag carries fifteen stars; so you may know we were no exception to the rule. However, we feel vonfident that if you: will,inquire of our patrons as to our Service during the past year, they will tell you it has been satisfactory.

The legislature to date has nothing with labor legislation. Frank Milhollan, vice president of the North Dakota federation of labor, has in hand a draft for a workmen’ compen- ation act which undoubtedly will be passed before the close of the session. The bill, however, is not yet in a con- dition where it is satisfactory to all the, factions concerned.

It is felt that Frazier, hecanse of his personal friend- ship for Macdonald, is making an ef-j fort to cripple hiss rand tof make the office of superintendent of public instruction a farce, while a com- missioner of education, whose creation the governor urges, would be made the real head of the state’s entire eduea- | tiona) system. It is thought that the! governor has Macdonald in view for the job. Macdonald has never b intensely popular with the rank file of his own party, and there many men in both houses of the pres- re- ent assembly who are not disposed to victimize Miss Nielson in order that the former superintendent of publie instruction. may remain on the state's | pay-roll.

Mr. Maddock made no re- ply. Rep. G.-A.
