Bismarck, Feb. 13.-The supreme
court today handed down decision
which will be received with satisfac-
tion by telephone companies in the
state that have peen bothered by the
cutting of their wires in the removing
of buildings in cities. It was filed
in the suit of the Northw esteIn Tele
phone company at Grand Forks
against E. 3. Anderson, house mover,
who cut the wires of the company IN
order to pass a moving building under
them. The company brought suit for
damages and won in the lower court.
The supreme court affirms Judge Fisk s
decision.

When on one of his visits to New
York, while he was still resident of
Pennsylvania, Mr.. Carnegie had Bit
ter experience with a messenger boy,
whose hardness in delivering a BUSH
ness message came near .upsetting a
deal of great importance, says the
Rochester Herald. Referring to this
incident while at dinner with friends,
that evening Mr.. Carnegie told of an
office boy who worked for him many
years ago.
James, said Mr.. Carnegie, was a
willing boy, but his ability as a slut
terer was simply wonderful, and 1 Oft
en- found it more convenient to attend
to little errands myself than wait for
his explanations. One day a neighbor
wanted TO send note clear across the
city and I permitted James to carry
it for him.
THE trip was long one and James
was gone quite three hours. When he
returned l asked him how much he
had charged for his services.

Mayor Mcclellan of New York was
discussing municipal matters with a
Tammany man who holds that business
men are out of place in politics. Elm
fact" he said, such a combination is
anomalous. What can a business man
know of politics?" Seems to me-" an
swered the Mayor reflectively, that
he can easily know as much about poll
itics as some politicians know about
business. 1t would be difficult to find a
business man who could be induced to
sell $1,000,000 franchise for a thousand
or two, don't you think?" The Tam
many man changed the subject.

riage of a 16-yearold boy and girl who

shame that ministers OF the gospel
and justices of the peace could be per-
suaded to marry khildren for the sake
of 50 fee. Several cases of that kind
had come to his notice of late and he
thought the Legislature should take
speedy action to stop the practice.

In Maine there is a railroad which
depends for its revenues mainly on
people who hunt and fish and camp
out. In less than two years. the man
ager says, such people put the line
on paying basis. and they had been
induced to seek Maine attractions by
advertising, in the newspapers and
otherwise. These paying patrons of
the road were people seeking recrea-
ton. amusement and sport. They had
certain amount OF time on their
hands each year TO give up to pleas
ure and money to spend to further
their desires. Maine is summer and
early autumn resort; South Georgia,
Savannah particularly. is an all-the
year resort. Last summer we had peo-
pie coming here from Philadelphia to
get COOL" during the winter just
ended we had some from the same
city coming here to get warm" Fol-
lowing the example of Maine. we need
to develop our outing resources and
let the people know about them. The
proposed automobile speedway is a de-
tail in that direction, and quite good,
big one.
