ENTRIES FOR THE DOG SHOW.
Twin City People Taking Less In
terest Than Those of
EISaxyhera

The coming dog show of the North
western Kennel club, which Is to be
held in Market hall, st. Paul, March
8 to IL, is already an assured success,
so far as Eastern and Southern entries
are concerned, but there appears to be
lack of interest in it on the part Of
local dog fanciers
If st. Paul and Minneapolis exhibit
ors will come in, the show will certain
ly be the biggest of it's kind that has
ever been held in the West, and the
mana gers of the show think there
should be sufficient local pride to make
it eclipse any of the sort.
In order to attract local entries the
managers of the show offer local prizes
and special inducements. These local
prizes are to be awarded only among
local exhibitors. They will not be in
competition with outside dogs, though
they will be regularly classed with the
others. Every local exhibitor will be
furnished with a free season ticket
which will alone be equal to the entry
fee.
Merchants in the Twin Cities have
taken a lively interest in the show
and they have contributed all kinds of
prizes for local dogs The Humane So
cfety is doing everything it can to fur
Their the success of the dog show, and
will have an exhibit of it's own, which
will be unique
Supt. G. w. Clayton said yesterday
that the entries for the show would
positively close at IL p. M, March /.
In order to be on hand to receive every
entry before the expiration of the time
limit, he will be in his office, 48 East
Fourth street, all day tomorrow.

GRASS AND CLOVER SEEDS.
Reduction in the Carrying Rates to
Encourage Their Use.

The Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and 500 lines have announced a reduc-
ton in the carrying rates on grass,
clover and forage plant seeds on a
basis of one-half of the prevailing tar
iff rates, with minimum charge of Is
cents per hundred pounds for less than
carloads, and 10 cents per 100 pounds
carloads between stations on their
lines in Minnesota and North Dakota,
effective March /, and continuing until
June 80.
The object of this reduction is to en-
courage the cultivation of tame grass
es, clovers and forage plants in the
sections of country traVersed by these
lines where this branch of agriculture
has not received much attention in the
past.
1t is believed that the present time
is a favorable one for a move in this
direction, because Of the low prices at
which the grass and clover seeds can
be obtained, and with these low prices.
in addition to the special freight rate
which will be charged, 1t will enable
the farmers to engage in this branch
of agriculture under most favorable
conditions. 1t is quite apparent to the
railway companies and others interest
ed in the development of the North
west that some active measures must
be taken in the direction of promoting
the cultivation OF tame grasses, in or
der to increase the stock interests For
the past two years a great many young
stock have been shipped out of these
states to be fed in other districts, be-
cause there was not a sufficient amount
of pasturage on which to hold them
during the summer time.
1t is expected that the farmers will
take advantage of the present oppor-
tunity by setting apart a portion OF
their arraa in Top9 0OUS and ra S+1lTeS
and will be able to increase their IA
cilities for feeding stock, which must
result in benefit both to the farmers
and to the Northwest.

CANADIAN PACIFIC WAR.
Cut Rates Through the Missouri
River Gateway Probable.


CHICAGO, Feb. 25-General passen-
ger agents of the Western roads were
in session today, considering the best
method of carrying on the war against
the Canadian Pacific road They did
not reach any conclusion and Will re-
sumo their deliberations tomorrow
A strong feeling developed in favor
of putting in the cut rates through
the Missouri river gateway as we'll as
through St Paul. The probabilities are
that it will go in through both gate
ways. Having secured the suspension
of the long and short haul clause Of
the interstate commerce act, the Amer
lean roads think they can conserve in
termediate rates without combining the
cut to any particular routes. They pro-
pose to do this by selling tickets on
the rebate plan, charging the passen-
ger an amount sufficient to prevent
him using through tickets to intermedi-
ate territory and refunding him the
difference when he arrives at his desti-
nation. This is the plan recommended
by the committee.
A call was issued today for a meet
ing of the Central Passenger associa-
ton, to be held Wednesday next The
principal matter to be considered is the
the rate war inaugurated by the Ca
madam Pacific road
The Western roads feel quite uncon-
cerned about the results of this meet
ing, whatever the action of the asso-
citation may be. The Western roads
believe they will receive all the sup
port they require from enough of the
roads to make the action of the others
a matter of indifference.

MAYOR DORAN'S SLATE.
How the Knowing Ones Say That
1t Looks at This
Time.

President Zimmerman, Of the school
board, suggests that the mayor in max
ing his appointments to the school
be ard appoint three business men for
the vacancies. The management of
the schools from a business standpoint,
Mr.. Zimmerman said, needed strictly
business men.
1t was given cut yesterday that
Mayor Doran had completed his slate
for the school board, and the three ap-
pointees would be l.. N. Bryant, J. w.
l.. Corning and A. r. McGill.
Bryant is from the Sixth ward, Nc
Gill from the Tenth, and Corning from
the Seventh.
For the two members of the board of
public works it Is expected Ernest L.
Mabon and John Sandell will be named
There was some question as to whether
the mayor would incur the opposition
of the evening organ by reappointing
Mabon. A Sixth ward politician stated
yesterday that the mayor had decided
that the evening organ would in any
event only give him a lukeWarm sup
port, and as Mabon practically carried
the Eighth ward vote in his pocket, he
would reappoint him.
Mayor Doran said last evening that
he had learned by looking up the law
that the appointments to the board of
public works did not have to be made
CitA TIC Secoilu MONDAY III March,
which would give him until March IA
to consider the matter of selecting his
appOintees.
The two vacancies on the park board
caused by the expiring terms of Daniel
Aherle and John H. Allen, will be fill
ed by new men. 1t was expected that
Mr.. Allen would be reappointed, but
the mayor, with a view to repairing
breaks in his political fences, has de-
cided to name new men.
Eugene Villaume, of the Sixth ward,
is slated as one of the new commission
ers, and DR.. A. W. Whitney, of the
First ward, may be the other
A DOran man said yesterday that it
was possible that Whitney would be
given a place on the school board, and
eX-Gov. McGill appointed to the park
board. He understood that the mayor
had not decided as to this, however.

CAN 1T INDlCT GRIFFIN?
Grand Jury Finds the License for
His Saloon Is in Another

For the next four days the grand jury
will enjoy recess. 1t adjourned yes
terday noon until next Wednesday
forenoon. In the meantime, the mem
bers will ponder over certain matters.
w. H. Griffin is one of those matters.
In fact, the saloonkeeper is the upper
most matter, in the minds of the grand
jurors just at present.
The grand jury is In a Guandarv
over Mayor" Griffin. Testimony that
liquor is sold on Sundays at his place
of business, was presented to that body
yesterday. Mrs. S. V. Root offered it.
Testimony that women frequented his
saloon was also proffered.
The grand jury thereupon summoned
City Clerk Jensen. From this official,
they learned that the license for what
issued to Griffin himself, but to Ben
Morris.
Under this showing, the grand jury
is in distressing doubt whether it can
indict Mr.. Griffin for the selling of
liquor on Sundays, and there the mat
ter STANDS.
Moritz Helm paid his daily visit and
explained his troubles Mr.. Helm
wants to be present during the investi-
cation of his charges against the cor
pcrations, which, he says, are evading
just taxation. This privilege Mr.. Helm
cannot enjoy, until the court clothes
him with the powers of a special at
torney.
County Attorney Anderson will bit
terly oppose any application on the
part of Mr.. Helm, for such an appoint
ment.
The grand jury has concluded It's In
vestigation of the charges against the
street railway company, and is ready
to submit it's report in this matter at
any time.
The charges against the st. Paul Gas
Light company are now under consid-
