very little. The price of transporta-
ton has come down, but the price of
wheat has come down with it, Com
pare the cost of carrying ton of
wheat to Liverpool or Antwerp twenty
years ago and now, and it will be
found that the fall in the price of
wheat from year to year is just about
the difference in this rate. 1t has

our commercial relations, by expand

it is to go on and increase we must
get some place, some people, where
we can get rid of the stuff we raise.

Oliver county. was in the city today
to visit President Mellen of the North

MCINTOSH COUNTY RANCHMAN
MEETS SERIOUS INJURY.
TuIley Williams Falls From His Horse
and is Badly Injured-Brought to the
Hospital at Bismarck.

Last Thursday morning. Tulley Will
liams, a ranchman, started for his
home from Wishek, on horseback.
The same evening several men riding
over the trail discovered him lying
manned and bleeding beside the road.
Williams has never since gained
consciousness, so the details of the ac-
cident are not known, but it is evident
from the nature of the wound that he
was kicked in the head by a horse
after being thrown. One of his eyes
is nearly torn from the socket, and in
crack in the skull.
He was taken to Wishek and from
there brought to Bismarck, over the
500 Friday evening, and placed in the
hospital.
Owing to the severity of the trip
the man was delirious from pain
when the train reached this city. and
was calling out loudly that he was be-
ing misused. that he was an able
bodied man and begged to be allowed
to walk. 1t took six men to hold him
on the cot while being taken to the
hospital
At the hospital he succeeded in
breaking away from his attendants
and If was not until after hard
struggle he was again subdued and

try-the Washburnites.
They came, they saw, but-we con-
quered.
1t is hard to distinguish the respec-
tive merits of any particular player
from the rest. for each and every one
played the gar'n of their life. Bartron
is credited with one of the best one
handed catches ever made on dia-
mond. Smittle is a hereo. pitching a
winning game with one of his fingers
disjointed from the start. Smittle,

double play. Caylor hit the ball at

work throughout the game.
Big Crowd From Washburn.

at 2:30 p. m, bringing bowling, con
fident mob of players and rooters. Al
most Immediately the crowd began to
betake ltsef to the park, where the
great event of the day was to be en-
acted. By $3.50, when the game was
called, it looked as though every per-
son able to ride or walk had cOngre-
gated from the remotest corners of

grand stand, netting in all $306. Ev,

diamond was in perfect condition, the
weather seemed to have been ordered
for this especial occasion.
At the start the odds were against
the Bismarck players, both in the bet
ting circles and in the opinion of the
people. Hundreds of dollars were
bet at 8 to 10 and the game seemed
to hold up this expectation until the

AN AGE OF COOPERATION AND
COMBINATION.

That this is an age OF co-Opera-
ton and consolidation has been
30 often stated that it has become
a trite saying, but even while we
say it we scarcely realize no"
true it is of almost every business
and industry. Statistics show
that while the bank clearings OF
the country have greatly lncreas-
ed the number OF banks in our
cities has noticably diminished.
In manufacturing along all lines
the capital invested, the number
of hands employed and the value
of the manufactured product has
greatly increased, but the number
OF manufacturing establishments
is reduced. The same thing holds
true of transportation companies.
Where twenty-five years ago
many small railroad companies
were operating, now they have
combined under a comparatively
few great systems. The small
company, the small trader and
small manufactures are crowded
out. They cannot stand the
pressure brought upon them by
the great all-absorbing corpora
tions. Where is this crushing
and absorbing process going to
land our boasted country of Tree
and equal rights?

Germany is far in advance OF
America in the matter of practical
business education for the boys
and young men of the empire. In
that country they have CONNER
cial schools carefully graded and
] classified to cover every phras e
of technical commercial life; while
in our own land we expect a boy
to have sufficient instructive busi-
ness ability to "catch on" to the
particular line OF work which he
chooses, and win out in ccmpeti-
ton with business men of long
experience. The college gradu-
ate, here, is many times handi-
capped for practical business
career because he has received
only classical education, and after
having spent four years in COM
plering college educatien he
does not feel that he can afford to
spend several years in mastering
the rudiments of the commercial
enterprise in which he wishes to
start. 1t is this lack of practical,
technical, education that causes
so many business failures among
college men.
At present the United States is
noticably lacking in institutions
designed to teach commercial life
successfully. We have still much
to learn from the old European

themselves ready to establish and
