pany to Consolidate It's Twin
City Offices.

Radical changes in the management
Of the international Harvester COM
pany, by which the offices of the con-
stituent companies will be consoli-
dated, are being put in effect. by the
directing officials of the big combine.
1t was stated yesterday that the plan
would be in force by Jan. /.
Dispatches indicate that this con-
solidation step will extend to all cities
and towns where the Mccormick,
SDeering, Plano, Milwaukee and other
companies have Offices, thus saving

ployes, and hundreds Of thousands of
dollars annually. In Minneapolis the
plan will involve the closing Of four
offices, uniting, without doubt. IN the
large warehouse at the Transfer.
The dispatches say further that

offices of the Champion. Plano, Nc
Cormick and Deering companies have
been notified to take inventories at

VERDICT OF | CENT
Suit of Jackson Boys for Unlawful
. Detention Has That
=. g., Result.
Suit Is a Sequel of Idaho Train
Robbery-An Appeal Is
Likely.

After less than an. hours delibera-
ton the jury in Arthur and Dwight
Jackson's damage suit against the
Northern Pacific for false imprlson-
ment in connection with the investi-
cation of the train robbery at Sand
Point, Idaho, last summer, returned
a verdict for the plaintiffs.
The case has been on trial before
a jury in Judge Cray's, court. The
plaintiffs, represented by their father,
introduced dispositions from residents
of Idaho to show that they were
wrongly suspected Of being con-
nected with the robbery, and that
they were subjected to the indignity
of being deprived for an hour Of the
right to go where they pleased. Ar
thur Jackson was the only oral witness
The Northern Pacific brought eight
witnesses from the west to substanti-
ate the claim that their men were
entirely within their rights in hold
ing the youths until investigation had
proved that they were not the right
men. 2 -t.-,, ~.
This morning the court charged
the jury and after a brief delibera-
ton the plaintiff, Arthur Jackson,
and his father and mother were de-
lighted to see the jury file into the
court room. They took their seats
with smiles of expectancy on their
faces and as the. clerk read: 1--WE
find the plaintiff, Arthur jackson, en-
titled to damages, the smiles
broadened-'in the amount Of one
cent" The smiles vanished. TIC
Dwight $Ess Jackson was awarded
equally nunifcent retribution.
A motion for a new trial will be
made and, if this is denied, the case
will be taken to the supreme court

IT am pleased to state that after
using different cod liver oil prepare
tons on the market, find Vinol to be
the best Of them all. It Is, palatable
and pleasant to the taste; In fact, the
oily taste of the cod liver Oil IS dis
guised or done away with entirely, ana
It's strengthening properties are truly
remarkable. .I.
1T has built up my system,
strengthened my nerves; In fact, II
has made anew man of me, enabling
me to take up my work with renewed
energy and, vigor, and / heartily IN
dorse Vinol as the most efficaclous
on the market IN. "A. Cassidy.
Knowing that the Voegeli Bros.
Drug CO of this city guarantee this
preparation in the strongest manner
possible, they were called upon for
information. Said Mr.. Woegeli Of the
company: ''Ninoi ] firmly believe is
the worlds greatest reparation Of cod
liver Oil, for it contains in a highly
concentrated form every one Of the
fifty odd medicinal curative elements
found In cod liver oil, yet Is entirely
free from oil or grease.
Vinol IS delicious to taste and ac-
ceptable to the weakest stomach. It
contains no drugs or poisonous In
gradients, and there Is no necessity for
people to load their stomachss with
drugs, nauseating oils or emulsions to
obtain the curative power of cod liver
oil, for IT is all contained in Vinol.
VinolG is the greatest strength creator
and health restorer known to medicine
to-day. We could quote innumerable
instances where it has fortified and
built UP the system, strengthened the
nerves, cured indigestion, chronic
coughs colds, bronchitis and incipient
consumptio given strength and vigor

NEW CLUB QUARTERS
Commercial Club Officers Look Over
the Bank Of Commerce
Building.
Owners of That Structure Are Con-
sidering Two-story
Addition.

A permanent home in the Bank of
Commerce building is being consid-
cred by the Commercial club. The
new plan would provide double the
space Of the present quarters on the
ninth floor of the Andrus building.
The Bank of Commerce building
will carrya two-story addition. The
bank officials have considered such an
addition, making it an eight-story
building. Club officers examined the
building this week, and found that an
excellent arrangement could be made
by which the club could get room
enough for a long time in the future.
Further than this nothing has been
done. The location is considered ex-
cellent for business men, being CEN
trail to the principal office buildings
and banks. The dining-room and
kitchens could be placed on the upper
floor and the reception and lounging
rooms on the floor beneath.

ORDERS BONDS SOLD
Mayor Haynes Signs Resolution for
the Sale Of the Armory
Issue.
Controller Rogers Thinks There Are
Flaws in Law Authorizing
Bonds.

Mayor Haynes this afternoon signed
the council resolution directing the
sale of $4,000 of bonds for a ma
tional guard armory. Some discredit
is being thrown on the bonds, on ac-.
count of the law authorizing the is
picks several flaws in the law, which
is chapter 83, laws of 1903. Said Mr..
Rogers this morning.
Zone feature that II object to is
the removal of the limit Of indebted
ness. We disposed of four bond issues
last fall, but each law providing for
the issues expressly provided that the
bonds were Of no value in case they
brought, the net ind btedness of the
city to point In excess of 10 per
cent of~the assessed valuation Of the
city. AS I recollect it now, every
bond issue since the 5 per cent limit
was passed has had a similar provi-
sion. But this. chapter allows the ar
mory bonds g. notwithstanding any
charter or other Imitation This APP
pears to me to be an extremely dan
gerous precedent. u: =: = .t=.
Then, again, the council is author
lied to issue the bonds on a bare ma
,jority, while other bond measures have
required tWo-thirds, three-fourths and
five-sixths majorities and even a
unanimous vote. 49,. ri. u = - r..
Another mistake is in not. fixing
a limit at which the bonds may be
sold. There is nothing to prevent a
sale at any figure" 800 -t..t- b
Mayor. Haynes says that the law,
itself has been passed upon by Attor-
ney General Douglas and City Attorney
Healy and that eighteen aldermen, or
two thirds of the council voted for
the issue . He recognizes the
points that are made, but inti1nates
that they are technical" The bonds do
not in themselves bring the net bonded
debt of the city over the 10 per cent
limit, so the clause Notwithstanding
any charter limitations" really
makes no differences. Mr.. Rogers will
probably be satisfied If the bond brok-
ers are. -. -. ~ =
