RETAIL
Of Stark and Billings coun.,e. Organize.

The retail grocers Of Stark and Bill
ings col mites have perfected a local or
ganization to be known as the Stark and
Billings County Retail Grocers & Cen
eral Merchants association. State Organ
izer E. A. Tyler of Fargo was here on
Wednesday and in the evening met with
the merchants in the St. Charles and eff
fected the organization. Retail groccrs
only are included in the organization,
which now has a membership of 500 in
North Dakota, with prospects of 500 bv
the close of the year.
The object of this organization is not
to advance prices, but it is to improve
the credit system, to establish uniform
prices on staple articles, enable the mer-
chants Of the same place to club together
in the purchasing of goods and get car
load rates, thus making a considerable
saving in the cost price. In this way the
merchants will be able to handle a bet
ter class of goods without advancing
prices and no doubt the prices on some
articles will be reduced.
The following officers have been cleo
ted for the local organization:
J. w. Currie, president.
A. T. Crowl, vice president.
Arthur Tollefson, secretary.
E. L. Scofeld, treasurer.
The following card price committee
was appointed: E. L. Scofeld, ]. c. F.
Parker, A. L. Martin, Herman Leutz and
Joe Killer.
1t will be the duty of this committee to
meet monthly and establish prices on
certain articles which will be forwarded
by the secretary to the other grocery
merchants OF the counties.
The first price card. which goes into
effect the morning of the 2Ist, is as fol-
lows:
Granulated sugar, ID lbs, sloo.
Flour, Ist grade, S2.35 per cwt.
Salt, per barrel, s2.25.
Kerosene oil, per gal, 7sc;5 gal. sl.oo.
Four x Arbuckle coffee, 7 lbs, SI.oo.
Laundry soap, 1907. bar, SC.
1aW, per pound, NC.
Bacon, " l7c.
Lard E I5c.
The above quotations are for cash.
If the members will hang together,
and they can only do so by standing by
their agreements and doing what is right
by each other, they can accomplish
a great deal that will not only be bene-
fetal to themselves but to the public as
we'll,

KILLS THE CATTLE DISEASE.

The cold snap has snapped the wind
pipe of the foot and mouth disease
among cattle, and if it continues long
enough, and the cattle survive, there
will be no foot and mouth disease in
the State. 1t was said at the United
States bureau of animal industry this
morning that the cold had checked
the disease. 1t also checks the fumi-
cation process. One of the staff was
trying to fumigate a herd in subur-
ban town, and the fumigation liquid
froze on the animal back, so that an
interruption in the work was necessi-
tated. The distinctive corps is
meeting with no resistance. and sue
cess is attending every move. New
Hampshire is fully out of danger now.

SMUGGLERS CAPTURED.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE treas
ury department officials have been
notified of the capture Of several
members of Il gang of smugglers at
Burke, N. Y :, on the Canadian bor-
der. Although at the time of capture
the men were engaged in bringing
inpnothipg more valuable than butter,
still there are certain features about
the case that lead the special agents
to believe that they have caught the
leaders of an organized gang of snug
glers who have been operating on the
northern border with much success
for number of years.
The duty on butter is six cents a
pOurd, and at the time of the arrest
the smugglers had 500 pounds of Cana
dian product which they had brought
over the line without paying duty.
There is not as much significance in
the capture of the butter as there is
in the apprehension of the men, for it
is believed that the special agents
have now broken up the machinery
! that has been employed in the past
for smuggling more valuable articles.
Instructions have been sent to Burke
to prosecute the offenders to the ex.
tent of the law.
The treasury department is gradual
ly breaking up smuggling operations
on the Canadian border. Years age
this business doomed with prosperity
| for those engaged in it,. but the &C
tivity of the government special
| agents and the punishment of certain
men with stiff sentences have dis
couraged the few who up to this time
have evaded arrest.
Some months ago the treasury de.
partment agents put an end to the
| operations of a Canadian furrier who
regularly sent goods over the frontier
without the formality of paying Gus
toms duties. He sold rich furs tt
American tourists who visited his es
Establishment, and agreed to deliver
them at their homes in the United
States. He sent out package aftel
package of furs, cloaks and wraps, al
of which were safely delivered. Ther
the treasury agents got on to thu
scheme, and as fast as the goods
would arrive on this side of the Dor
der the government employees would
take charge of them. The Canadian
furrier continued the shipments N
usual and 1853 packages fell into thu
hands of Uncle Sans agents before
| the dealer discovered that he wa
merely throwing his goods away. i
was impossible to reach him through
the courts, but the department haC
the satisfaction of prosecuting TIN
runners of the Canadian. The value
of the captured furs Aggregated $50, 600
The department also recently
stopped the smuggling of liquors b,
Cuban fishing smacks off the coast o
Florida. This had been going OF
for some time before the special agent
discovered it, but few months ag
eight arrests were made and numbe
of captures of contraband goods effect
ed. AS a rule, all things seized b.
the government in this manner ar
disposed of by public sale and tn
proceeds turned into the treasury. Il
certain cases the secretary has author
ity to release captured goods, but no
when their value is greater tina
81, 600.
