correspondent of the Fargo Argus
has the following to say regarding the
price of wheat: am told that the
agents Of some OF the elevator com.
panies give bonds that their grades
and weights shall hold out. Can this
be true! 1t does not seem creditable,
and yet it is true. Ithelps to explain
how wealthy owner of elevator
stock can afford to lose = small for.
tune in q gambling enterprise and still
have a princely income remaining.
They force somebody else to take all
the risks while they 60 to the trouble
of wcketing the profits. Do you sup
pose that this is the wayl What an
incentive to an agent to he honest.
II he makes mistake in grading by
which the farmer benefits, he has only
to make mistake" against the next
farmer to make all things right. If
lie has any doubts about his weights
holding out he has only to practice
witt, his scales until he becomes an
expert i'll weighing to his own and
his employers interests.

Undoubtedly the price of wheat is
not what it ought to be, even
though there is a SURPLUS of the arti-
Gle everywhere. Wheat yaisers are
at the mercy of gigantic monopoly.
The elevator and railroad companies
and the Minneapolis mfllers have
Joined hands and the result is no such
thing as an open market. Unless the
farmers and business men of the
country unite and maintain the cause
of the country, the evil will continue.
1t is well now to gravely consider
what legislation may be had TO lessen
the evil. The law of values, as based
ON the conditions of supply and
demand, may not be chang.
ed, but the iron grip of monopoly
may be made to loosen a little.

1t is to be hoped that the legisla.
lures of Minnesota and Dakota will
unite on some legislation that will
benefit the farmers in the matter of
shipping grain. The railroads should
be required to furnish single Cars to
shippers under such restrictions as
will protect the company, but secure
the farmer the privilege of shipping
his grain without paying compulsory
tribute to the elevator companies.

HUDSON BAY ROUTE,

Although tnere mas been nttle pun.
lie discussion of late in regard to the
opening ct the Hudson Bay route.
the interest in i.s:sat project is by no
means dying out nor have its advo.
Gates lost faith in its feasibility,
Nothing has yet been brought to light
by those who oppose the scheme to
throw any doubt or suspicion on the
evidence furnished Ivy SO many exper.
fenced navigators aid engineers,
whose testimony from observation is
almost unanimous as to the entire
practicability of maintaining north.
ern route from this country to Europe
during sufficient portion Of each
year to be of immense advantage to
the whole Northwest, The oppon.
ents of the project have, as yet, done
little else than sneer at it, hut we
believe the time is near at hand when
enterprise and capital backed up by all
the reliable evidence of u century,
will take hold of this project and pro.
ceed to demonstrate to the world its
grand possibilities.
1t may be asked why has not the
utility of this route been shown to
the world before this! Because the
necessity for it has not been suffi-
ciently felt. On the other hand that
powerful corporation, the Hudson
Bay Company. which has so long com.
passed that vast region to the north,
has had the strongest motive from
self Interest to keep its possessions and
opportunities as much as possible
shrouded from the world. We have
a striking proof of this fact in the
disclosures recently made in regard to
Lake Mistassini by geological explor.
ers from Quebec. The Messrs. Bignell
and A. j. Lowe of the Geological
Survey have lately arrived at Quebec
from the vicinity of that lake and
they find instead of its being a per.
petually frozen body of water, sur.
rounded by barren wilds, it is q lake
nearly the size of Lake Superior, teem-
ing with excellent varieties Of fish, in
country alive with fur bearing ami.
mails, the climate withal permitting
an abundant supply of vegetables.
These facts have been kept from the
world, although the Hudson Bay
company have had a post there for a
hundred years. But necessity is the
mother of discovery, as we'll as of in.
vention, hence the developments on
this subject in the recent past, and the
necessities of the great Northwest
for better commercial outlet are
now so keenly felt that a number of
British capitalists, together with
others on this side of the ocean, have
already determined to make vigor.
GUS push towards opening UP this
outlet. Several millions have been
subscribed, surveyors have been pros.
pecting al summer along the propos.
ed route and . determined effort is to
be made the coming winter to induce
the Dominion government to make
such legislation as will place the road
entirely under the control of the
Manitoba government.
Manitoba is of course deeply inter.
ested in this scheme, nor will North.
ern Dakota and Minnesota be less ben.
efcialiy affected by the opening of this
route. People on both sides of the
line will watch, with great interest,
the developments in this connection
from this on,

It was the Hillsboro Banner that
first suggested what, doubtless, a
great many others have come to re-.
gard as necessary and what the people
generally would approve. that the
coming legislature should publish q
daily journal Of its proceedings, that
the people may be able to inform
themselves as to the acts of their rep.
resentatives. On this subject the
Grand Forks Herald says: We make
this assertion, nevertheless, with the
reservation that if such a journal be
undertaken IS it should he, the publ.
cation be limited to a concise and nc
curate minute of all motions, votes
and bills, reports of committees and
such other matters of public import.
excepting however speeches which if
all were printed would lumber up the
record to the confusion of all and de.
feat the purpose of, the publication.
1t is easily to be seen that if speeches
are to be published, it would occupy
so much time and space that no corps
of printers however competent could
keep up within week or two. With
this proviso the proposition seems to
be feasible one and entirely in &C.
cord with the growing demands of the
public and the Importance which will
attach to the proceedings of the next
territorial legislature. Under the or.
ganic act the expenses of the legisla-
ture are fixed by the secretary of the
treasury, which the legislature must
in no case exceed. Doubtless under
a proper presentation of the matter an
allowance would lie made fol- the pur.
pose.

1t is doubtful if the G. p. r. com.
pany have any particular desire to
take further advantage of the clause
in their charter which excludes other
outside roads from entering their ex.
elusive territory. A monopoly may
be carried too far, especially, as in
this case, when it reacts injuriously
upon itself by crippling the country
that gives it support. The Winnipeg
Times says: 1t is doubtful if the gov
eminent will ever again he called up.
on to disallow a charter in the inter.
est of the G. P. r., and by virtue of
the agreement entered into with that
company. 1t is said that the latest
railway scheme, the Brandon & Rock
Lake road, is to be taken up by Mr..
Hill. of the st. Paul 4 Manitoba.
That would be an aggravated viola.
ton of the rights of the G.
r. r.. but it is even doubtful if that
project would be interfered with.
The old monopoly bugbear is virtually
dead; the new one of hard times, how.
ever, is very much alive and we are
afraid it will be a year or two before
we can drive him out of the country.
