POLICE GIVE NO HEED
ORDINANCES ARE DISREGARDED
Free Hand Given to Garbage Dump
# ing Fiends and Sod-Stea1- -.
- ing Gangs. .--.

While the "big mitt" men and other
artists of that stripe have confined their
operations to the business district Of the
city. the outside wards are having their
share of troubles, due to the present police
administration. .. "
The most vexatious of these to deal with
at lust this time are the garbage dump
ing fiends and the sod stealing gangs.
Ashes, stable sweepings and other even
more offensive material are being depos-
itel promiscuously about the wards, often
times almost under the walls of dwellings,.
Not only are dump signs disregarded, but
it is, customary to smash them up for
kindling wood. The garbage men carry on
their operations in the most laWless man
ner Residents have appealed time and
again to the police, but without avail APP
parently there are no policemen to spare
for this purpose. The health department
does all it can to hunt down the offending
parties, but is nearly helpless without the
CO. cooperation of the police.
The sod stealers are said to be more
active than ever before, under the slim
illus of the present active building season
and encoura ged by the complacency of
the police. Vacant lots everywhere are
being stripped Of their sod without leave
or license. z
Under other administrations it has been
the rule for the police to make some in
quries into the regularity of such pro-
ceedings where men or boys are found
taking sod but now, it is charged, the
police are either out of sight, or are too
busy along other lines to give such mat
tiers their attention. - .

LAND UNDER. WATER [
Discouraging Crop Reports Received
From Red River Valley.
OTHER DISTRICTS FARE BETTER
Decrease in Wheat Acreage and In
., crease in Seeding of Flax .
IL Is Noted.

From over one hundred letters received
from farmers, grain dealers and business
men in North and South Dakota and Min
nesota the John Miller Grain company has
made the following estimate of the con-.
dition of: wheat, based on actual figures
received: ....--
In the Red River valley, from Fargo
north both sides Of the river: From Is to
80 per cent of seeding done, from 80 to
35 per cent decrease in wheat acreage,
from 10 to Is per cent of land under Water
and cannot be cultivated this spring.
Taken altogether, reports from that point
of the northwest are very discouraging.
The southern parts of North Dakota and
central Minnesota show about. Is per
cent of seeding done and a. decrease in
wheat acreage of about Is per cent, with
only. a. small percentage Of land that will
not be seeded. The western part Of North
Dakota shows over half the seeding done
and "a decrease in wheat acreage of from
% to 80 per cent In nearly all cases it
is Stated that the decrease in the acreage
Of wheat will be sown to flax and barley,
AID a very large flax acreage is predicted
for the entire state of North Dakota.
Southern Minnesota and South Dakota re-
port seeding we'll advanced and conditions
for growing crops favorable. A large
amount Of new land will be- broken in
| the western part of North Dakota, which
WILL also be soWn to flax. '-- -~-.~..

GRADES TOO STRICT
Coarse Grain Handlers Are Not
Satisfied With Inspection.
A CONFERENCE WILL BE SOUGHT
In Which the Grain Men Can State
~ Their Grievance to Ware
- =. house commissioners.

There is considerable dissatisfaction at
the Chamber of Commerce over the in
spection of grain. The inspection depart
ment is not giving entire satisfaction in
cases calling for close judgment. The
wheat men are grumbling a little, al
though they say the situation now is not
nearly SO bad as last fall, when, in con-
sequence Of the very strict application Of
rules, much grain was forced away from
Minneapolis and sought an outlet through
Milwaukee and other markets where the
inspectors were more liberal. Complaint
in specific cases is frequent, however,
especially in the case of coarse grains.
A petition came on change this morn
ing addressed to the state railroad and
warehouse commission asking that the
gradings on coarse grain be changed.
While the petition does not in so many
words state that there is dissatisfaction
with the methods of the inspection de-
partment. it asks for change of rules
and establishment Of new grades. 1t is
believed, however, that the petition is the
result of several late cases where grad
ings on grain were unsatisfactory and
where appeals were taken and the origin
al grading sustained by the board of ap-
peals.
The petition, which was rather general
" signed, does not specify just what the
complaints are, but asks the commission &c
fix a date for conference between tho
commission and the coarse grain men
that the latter may there state theil
grievances.
