North Dakota Farmers viii Get Equiv
alent to Cash For Their Wheat.
GRAND FORKS, N. D., Aug. 2S.-
Northwestern Elevator company agents
are in receipt Of the following instruc-
tions:
"Our methods of paying for wheat
this year are precisely what they always
have been. Our agents have always
sent drafts on this company which have
always been paid when they are pre-
sented at Minneapolis and st. Paul and
always will be. We have just as much
funds to start our business by and more
than we have had in the past The
whole matter is simply this: The draft
you issue on the company will be paid
when presented to the bank in Mime
apolis or st, Paul on which it is
drawn"
Other elevator companies say they are
prepared to do as well. and farmers en-
tertain no further fears as to sight
drafts on Minneapolis and St. Paul
banks. They have always been paid
when presented and are practically the
equivalent of cash. This solves the
grain problem for North Dakota.

The blaze started at ii % in the rear part

and il was soon entirely developed in
flames. which quickly spread TO the
two-story frame opera house on Broadway
and Burke avenue. The building was 100

opera house is the one-story frame dwell

destroyed, the loss being 500, with no in

Iu.s of water.
The opera house was the largest and
one of the finest buildings in Ballard. That
the town itself escaped destruction was
due solely TO the fact that there was no
wind. The water was not turned on until
fifteen minutes after the alarm had been
sent in, although the fremen were
promptly on hand within a few
minutes, and worked calamity to
save the adjoining buildings on
Leary avenue. The delay in turning on
the water is attributed 10 the reason that
man had to be sent some distance for
that purpose, and even then the pressure
was slight, owing to break in the supply
pipe. The weather was perfectly calm,
the flames and sparks shooting straight
upward. Had 1t been otherwise the
flames would have spread to Leary avenue
and the densely populated part of the
town.
No satisfactory cause of the FIRE Is
known. Fanslau's shop was partially
burned in the same place about year ago,
and there had been no fire or lights in the
shop for several months prior TO Tuesday
evening, nor had he done any business
