Ole Serumguard, of Devils Lake, who
has been in attendance during the ses-
sion, received telegram last evening
stating that his large farm machinery de-
pots together with his Office and fixtures
burned at 3 o'clock. Mr.. Serumgaard
says that he was well insured and the
loss will not be heavy.
Senator Creel speaking of his bill re-
quiring insurance companies to pay full
legal rates said: "Why should not these
foreig ign companies pay the full legal rate
for the publication of their statements
when our people at home are compelled
to do the same for any legal printing
they may have. The difference is not
great enough to cause an increase in the
rates of insurance but is quite an item to
poor newspaper men. To my mind the
provisions of the bill are just"

committee on mileage and per diem the
