It is the duty of the association to! fight for reapportionment oa every! possible occasion and in every hon- jest way. That is the chief thing| for which it was created; for when/ reapportionment is gained all the oth- er things for which it is working will | follow, | It is the present duty of the as- | sociation to continue its fight appartionment and to ask jextra session of the legislature for for an {r | that purpose; for if reapportionment | does not come at an extra session.of (the present legislature it will not |come until 1917, And if Northern ; Minnesota is placed in the apparent position of abandoning its fight for reapportionment, as it will be if the association fails to demand an extra session for that purpose, the chance |of getting justice even in 1917 will be made very much less. If the association abandons, even for a single moment, its stern insist- ence that the rank injustice of the present legislative apportionment be redressed, it will fail in the pur- pose for which it was created, te serve which it was born in the fire of the hearts of loyal citizens ot Northern Minnesota who weary of longstanding injustices and of the condition of impotent inertia to which the natural wealth of this part of the state had been condemn- ed by the state's neglect. If the association abandons this purpose of its being at the behest of of the selfseekers—personal, partisan | fighting | against an extra session by every ; means at their command, then it will be wandering far from the true path Jaid out for it at that first eplendid | meeting at Bemidji, and will be trait- or to the noble cause which shaped itself at Crookston, Brainerd and Du- luth.
