rThere is a difference Of just fifty
cents to the ton, and when the i'm
mense amount Of hard coal con-
sumed in this state is taken into
consideration, the concession is no
trifing one to the people Of the
state. This generosity on the part
Of the Great Northern manage
ment cannot but be appreciated.
The new rate, it is understood, will
go into effect on the 18th Of the
present month. The Great North
ern is the first to announce any,
thing Of the kind, and it is very
likely that the other roads will be
obliged to fall into line.

"Harvey's people fully appreciate
the honor to our state and the per-
sonal bravery Of her soldiers, and
they are glad to contribute their
share toward bringing them home.
The fact that the request came
through Hon. Ole Serumgard
makes them even, more cheerful

deeply indebted to him for his
prompt, fair and painstaking
method of administering the affairs
at the land Office at Devils Lake,

NEW YORK, Sept. 2--News paper has
gone up a quarter Of a cent a pound within
the last three weeks. The newspapers of
New York city. according to an official of
the company which supplies all but two of
the papers printed in this city, use four
hundred tons of paper daily at a cost of 2
cents a pound. The recent sharp advance
means s2.0o0 n day more to the newspapers,
or $4,000 a year over the price which has
heretofore obtained. The cost of the con-
sumption is now $4,000 a day. The tendency
is to raise the price still higher. The add
vance is due partly TO the drought of last
summer. which seriously impaired the water
power OF the paper mills. Book paper has
also gone Up a quarter OF a cent a pound,
and letter paper from -three-quarters of a
cent to one cent a pound.
The price OF shoe leather has gore up

Will not expire for months to come and so
the patrons of retail houses will not feel
the advance until December. In the mean
time the manufacturers who have bound
themselves by contract will be the sufferers
from the rise In price. A sharper advance
stu has. been made In the price of crude
sole leather. For two months the cost has
been steadily going un and yesterday IL had
advanced 6 cents per pound above the mar
ket price paid In August. Still higher prices
are looked for By manufacturers. The In.
creased cost Is due to the scarcity of cat

PLAINFTELD, Ind, Sept. 2o.-The clos
ing day of the Friends Yearly Meeting
found the attendance of the members very
much deprecated, and they nave left in
numbers on every train to-day. tn fore
noon has been given over to preaching and
purely religious exercises. which brought in
a number of outsiders from the country.
The s o'clock service was in charge of Rev.
Douglas. who gave a lesson on "Hungering
and Thirsting After Righteousness" At 10
o'clock the service in the house was in
charge of Rev. Alpheus Trueblood, while
Rev. Douglas preached in the tent. The
much-vexed question of remodeling the
house where the Yearly Meeting holds its
sessions was settled yesterday afternoon,
and the relief was so great that the chair
man of the committee having the subject
in hand for two years past broke forth
with Praise God from Whom All Blessings
Flow" AT present the house is divided
into two equal rooms by a partition. The
new plan lowers the windows, raises the
floor of the rostrum or pulpit and moves
the partition twenty feet west, making the
room for holding the Yearly Meeting on
the east eighty by ninety feet, leaving a
loom on the west forty by ninety feet to

dissatisfied with the plan, but the meeting
gave practical unanimity of Endorsement to
the report.
An important action was taken i'm direct

meeting house in Indianapolis. on Alabama
street. This was done largely because of
the recent organization of a Friends His

city. The library is a valuable one, con-
tanning many old books of value that are
hard to find elsewhere.
A communication. signed by several Of the
asking that parliamentary usage be adopted
by the Yearly Meeting in the transaction
Of business. This would be a radical de-
parture from the practice of the past, when
all questions were decided by the clerk. or
presiding officer. by announcing what
seemed to be the average opinion of the
meeting, after all who desired it had spok-

posed has been going on among the Friends
here until for two or three years past many

ordered to be printed in the minutes and
