EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
Uiaiharck, Jan. 13,1909.
Weil, the eleventh session of the
legislative assembly of tbe state of
North Dakota is now at work. So far,
there hasn't been a single happening
of a sensational order—scarcely
enough excitement to keep the mem
bership awake. The present session
olds fair to be about the most har
monious that has been held for sev
eral years, although In legislative
bodies something unforeseen Is liable
to come up without warning that will
cause for a time au exceeding liveli
ness.
The senate this year was organized
in a thoroughly "angelic" manner—
the former upper-house factionists
eating from one another's hands as
though that had been their habit for
years. A committee was selected to
distribute the loaves and fishes, and
this usually herculean job was per
formed in that manner which slang
ists would term "dead easy."
In the house there was a dead-lock
of a day or two in the so-called pro
gressive faction, the fight for success
in tbe choice of speaker being be
tween White of Traill and Skulason
of Grand Forks. Mut a sufficient num
ber to control tbe caucus could not
be secured for either of the gentle
men named, and a choice was flnally
made of Usher L. Ilurdick of Cava
lier, a young man who has not been
closely Identified with either faction.
Tbe opposing caucus settled upon
George McCrea of Pembina as their
candidate. It had been the wish of
three-fourths of the members of both
factions that the final choice of a re
publican candidate for speaker should
be made by a general party caucus
composed of all the republicans of the
bouse, and not, as was the case two
years ago, by a part.
\Vh«n the general caucus assem
bled the test vote came on the mo
tion to vote by ballot for candidates.
This was lost "by 44 to 40—two mem
bers not voting. Then, as is usually
the case, a few went over to the
stronger side and on the final ballot
tor speaker, Mr. Burdick was declared
the nominee of the united republicans
by a vote of 48 to 38.
Two men could not have been
named tbe choice of either of whom
for speaker would have provoked less
antagonism than McCrea and Bur
dick. The writer served with McCrea
in the '05 session and with Burdick
in the '07 session. Both were thor
oughly Independent in the matter of
legislation, and both were well liked
by the fellow-members. Mr. Burdick.
the speaker, is a man well equipped
mentally and physically for the office.
We say "physically" for the reason
that the duties of the position entail
much arduous work. Take, for In
stance, the first week of the session
The speaker is kept up day and night,
almost, making up his committees.
There is much pulling and hauling to
secure places on the favorite commit
tees, and by the time he has finished
his strenuous job his ear drums are
usually in bad shape and his legs a
foot or so longer from the vigorous
pulling of members. It is a job not
often sought by a man beyond middle
age, and it requires one who is able
and willing to stand considerable hard
physical and mental labor. The
young speaker of the eleventh session
is certainly competent to stand the
fatigue, for he is about as perfect a
specimen of young American man
hood as one often sees. He is tall
smooth-shaven, broad-shouldered and
dark-complexioned. He was the
youngest member ("the kid") of the
05 session, and 1 believe he is the
youngest of the present membership.
He is a noted athlete, being the same
Usher L. Burdick who was a member
of the victorious University of Minne
sota football team of 1903.
The speaker just finished making
up his committees, although they
have not yet been made public
through the press. They will be an
nounced today. The Kidder-Emmons
members are assigned as follows:
Tuttle—Federal relations (chair
man.) Agriculture. Coal Lands and
Mining. Warehouses, Grain Grading
and Dealing. Joint Committee on
Public Buildings.
Streeter—Printing (chairman.) Ap
portionment. Military Affairs. Edu
cation. Supplies and Expenditures.
Temperance. Joint Committee on
Rules.
As has been announced in the daily
newspapers, Mr. Tuttle was given his
certificate of election, which js signed
by Governor Burke, Secretary of State
Blalsdell and Attorney General Mc
Cue. This thoroughly disposes of
the contention made by the Herolz
Storey people that the December eloc
tlon was unnecessary and illegal. As
a matter of fact it would have been
necessary to hold the election if it
was known that not a vote would be
cast, and the auditors and sheriffs of
the two counties would have been
subject to penalty had they not done
so.
"The "Vontest'' ease of Storey- vs
Herolz has been postponed until the
18th of this month. Attorneys Lauder
and Engerud are watching the inter
ests of Mr. Tuttle and Attorney Sor
ley those of Mr. Storey in the matter
It is a funny proposition. Storey con
testa Herolz, who has no certificate of
election—a proceeding unheard of
heretofore. In the meantime Tuttle,
chosen at an election held In absolute
conformity with law. and at which
Messrs. Herolz and Storey,-or either
of them, had a right to run, holds the
certificate of election, which is abso
lute proof of the legality
0f
tola choke
seen a single attorney of any faction
who does not believe that Tuttle is
entitled to the seat. However, a par
liamentary body is the sole judge of
ihe qualifications of its own members,
iind can unseat one of them for chew
nu gum or anything else If It sees
fit. nut it is not believed here in
Bismarck that a factional majority of
law-making body will use the strong
jrm in violating tbe spirit of laws
made by its predecessors.
A vast batch of bills Is being pre
sented. There are bills on every con
ceivable subject—some members
seeming to believe that they are
working "by the piece" instead of by
the day. A good share of the hard
work of every session, on the floor
and in 'committees, is in seeing that
much of tbe proposed legislation does
not pas*. It is too bad that some
system cannot be thought out by
which bills would have to be prepared
and Kiunbitted by at least the 20 th of
December to a state commission (or
special 'court) composed of leading
lawyers, who would pass upon the
constitutionality of liills before they
were presented, rather than have the
supreme court tackle them after they
became laws. But nf feasible plan
along these lines has yet been formu
lated I" any state.
There is a strong feeling among
senators and representatives in favor
of good-roads legislation, and it
likely that there may be some enact
ments at this session that will radi
cally change the present slip-shod
methods of road-building.
Hut 1 must close in order to get
this off to you in time for the paper
