Thinks Wages Too High

G. A. Morton in Fargo Argus: North
Dakota farmers should take decided
action with reference to the question of
wages. No farmer that sells his wheat
for so cents per bushel, can afford to pay
present prices for farm labor. It is
simply out of the question. Eighteen
dollars is every farthing that we ought
to pay during the seeding season, and
51.25 should be the outside for harvest
ing and threshing. Ihave no inclination
to withhold from the laboring man
proper compensation for labor performed,
and being a Christian man I believe that
"the laborer is worthy of his hire" but
we must be just before we are generous,
and as before stated, As OR so cent wheat
will not warrant our paying wages for
it's culture, in excess of those enumer-
ated above.

Senator Donnelly. delivery may be de-
manded to state elevator, or elevators
at Duluth, il such are built.
Fourth-Pooling as to prices and
profits between elevators at local points
is stringently prohibited.
Build in the State.

William Res IN Fargo Forum: I
wonder if the state officials in their de-
sire to construct an elevator at Duluth
have thought of the saving which might
be effected by building these elevators
in the state. It is claimed we raise 30,-
100000 bushels of wheat per year. A low
estimate would place two pounds OF dirt
to the bushel of grain, and we have to
pay freight on this to Duluth, at an aver
age rate say of 10 cents per bushel. Sixty
million pounds of dirt is 100000 bushels
and this costs the farmers 100000 a
year, for which they get no return. Take
that 100000 and build an elevator at
Fargo, one at Grand Forks and perhaps
elsewhere. This would save freight on
dirt; it would keep the screenings here
to feed to sheep and fatten them, and
would create home market for the best
Of wheat and bring buyers here from the
east. If state officers want to build state
elevators, economy dictates they shall lie
constructed within the state.

Held for Burglary.

On Friday last two men, H. E. Merrill
and J. E. Klspp, came in on train No.
from the east and IN the early afternoon
were arrested by the chief of police, on
information from Breckenridge, charging
them with forgery. Conductor Sloan.
on whose train they came to this city,
noticed that they held tickets numbered
2235 and 2236, two Of four recently stolen
from the ticket Office at Breckenridge,
of which he had received information.
A search OF the men failed to locate the
other two tickets. The tickets were
dated April 9Th, and read from Brecken-
ridge to Butte, Montana. When stolen
the the tickets were in blaLk and after
wards filed in. The distance given be.
tween the two points, on tke tickets, is
$50 miles. A paper found on them
showed that they had taken the distance
from st. Paul to Butte, 1927 miles, and
from that subtracted the distance from
St. Paul to Breckenridge, 237 miles,
which according to their arithmetic left
$50 miles. The tickets they claimed to
have bought from man on the streets
Of Breckenridge. One carried couple
Of switch keys and claimed to be rail
roader. At tho examination the evidence
was strong enough to hold them and
they were bound over to Monday, April
18th, pending the arrival Of requlsition
papers from Gov. Nelson OF Minnesota.

whose decision on these points is to be
final and conclusive to all parties at IN

Third-The seller is given the option

vision that he may demand a receipt
