MORE ABOUT GRADING.
investigating Committee Examines
a Few More Witnesses.

Few More Witnesses.
The special grain investigating COM
mittee met last evening and listened to
the testimony Of several witnesses from
Clay county as to the quality of the
wheat and the grades
John NJ Baer, a farmer eight miles from
Moorhead, testified that he shipped two
cars In August and seven In September
They all graded No / northern except
one OF the cars sent in August. That
graded No. northern. The wheat was
from the same field and was Of the same
Kind. There was complaint about the
close grading at the beginning of the
season. He did not think this was the
fault Of the inspection as the wheat did
not dry we'll In the shock and was injured
by the rain.
William Wagner farmer living near
Moorhead, had heard many complaints
but did not think there was any ground
for complaint. In the last part Of August
he shipped four cars which graded No. 2
northern. Sept. 10 he shipped three cars
which graded No. / northern. The dock
age was two pounds to the bushel.
ii. .. Hutchinson, farmer seventeen
miles from Moorhead, saw no difference
In grades last year than year before. He
received fair treatment as in former
years from inspection department.
John Watson threshed $4,000 bushels last
year, but shipped no wheat. Wheat was
all in shock, but not much of it stacked
There was considerable rain and wheat
rtpened premature. One farmer named
Marks shipped 799 bushels and got pay
for 523. He had heard considerable COM
plant. but was Of the opinion 1t was the
fault OF the farmers, who threshed when
wheat was wet. The latter part of the
season there was not so much complaint
Inc wheat In that section was foul and
dirty.
w. M. Todd, state weighmaster, called
by Grain Inspector Clausen, detailed
visit he had taken in January to investi-
gate complaints made by Ole Tangen.
In conversation with Ole Olnes, an ele-
vator operator, he learned that Tangen
had sold all his wheat and had not kept
any for seed on account of it being so
foul Olnes had informed witness that
all the wheat In that immediate vicinity
was poor.
In answer to questions put by Mr..
jacobson witness detailed the manner of
weighing wheat at elevators and admitted
that shippers would be greatly benefited
II the wheat was weighed on track scales
The weighmaster was on the top floors Of
the elevators now and knew when a car
was emptied by being signaled to. There
were 10 track scales in use in Duluth, but
there were four In the Twin Cities. Near
ly all the complaints were on account of
shortage in the weighing and II there
were track scales there could be no
chance for complaint.

TURNED DOWN MCGOWAN.
Senate Tax Committee Would Not
Listen to His Bill,

Express company tax bills were con-
sidered by the senate COMMITTEES on taxes
and tax laws last night. There were
present of the committee Senators Greer,
Somerville, Grindeland, Reeves, Horton,
E. e. Smith, Roverud, Potter and Miller
Representatives of the express companies
were in attendance.
Senator Miller insisted that the express
companies were paying only about ] per
cent on their business, and read from the
railroad reports printed in the journal
of the 1897 senate in support Of his con-
tention.
c.. A. Severance doubted the accuracy
Of the figures. Senator Miller said they
were made up by the state railroad COM
mission on the reports of the railroads,
compared with the contracts there on
file between the railroads and the express
companies.
While Mr.. Severance was looking up
these figures, the committee considered
the MCGOWAN bill for the taxation of
telegraph companies.
Senator MCGOWAN spoke at length In
favor of his bill and cited figures to show
that 1t would be Of financial advantage
to the state.
Senator Horton said that bills for rails
ing revenue must originate in the house.
Senator Greer, chairman, said the point
was we'll taken.
That limited the discussion, in effect,
to the Dyer bill from the house, although
the possibility of substitution was to be
considered.
The MCGOWAN bill was referred to It's
author.
On motion of Senator Reeves the dis
cussion was limited to the Dyer bill, and
c. A. Severance spoke in behalf of the
express companies. He presented figures
from the United States. American and
Adams companies, showing their prop
ty in the state, $4,000, $1,000 and S., 900,
respectively. The Great Northern said
it had only $4,000 to $4,000.
M. D. Grover. on behalf Of the Great
Northern Express company, supplement
ed the figures presented by Mr.. Sever
ance.
The committee went into executive ses-
sion to consider the bills, and then de-
ferred action until today.
