NO SEATS, NO FARES.
Railroads Must Provide Seats on
Trains or Not Collect Fares.

A special from Grand Forks, N. D..
says: At the forthcoming session of
the legislature 1t is expected that sew
eral measures will be introduced in
an effort to give the state improved
railroad service.
Among these will be one copied
after the laws of eastern states max
ing a first-class seat one of the re-
quirements for first-class tickets, aud
providing that no fare may be col
lected in case where seats are not
provided.
In the past month or six weeks the
passenger traffic out of North Da-
kota has been the greatest in the MIS-
tory of the state, and was made up
largely of returning harvesters VINO
were unwilling to risk the dangers ol
beating their way home. Trains
coming into Grand Forks have beer
loaded so heavily that stops OF an
hour have been made in order tha'
conductors might take up tickets.
On the eastbound flyer two morn
ings ago $50 passengers were carried
in two coaches. and it has been
common thing for trains from th'
west. carrying three coaches to orlnt
in from 500 to 500 passengers. I'M
means that more than half, and II
some instances two-thirds Of the pas
sengers have been required to stan
up.
A law that would require seats Q
no fares might work a hardship o.
the railroads, but 1t is argued that
would result in improvements in TN
service that ought to come for IN
money paid for first-class tickets.

LATEST THEORY
OF BATE MURDER
Said to Have Been Result of
Labor Union Conspiracy.
WRONG MAN WAS SHOT DOWN
BULLET WAS INTENDED FOR
EDWIN ARCHER.

CHICAGO. Nov. pa labor union
II conspiracy is the latest explana-
ton of The automobile tragedy near
Lemont III. According to this theory,
John W. Bate jr.. the young chauffeur,
was the victim of bullets intended for
Edwin Archer. a vital witness for the
prosecution in criminal case involv-
ing a number of Chicago labor union
officials.
Archer was an emDloye of the same
automobile company for which Bate
worked. 1t is singular fact that Ar
cher and Bate were the only two
chauffeurs on duty when the autOmO-
bite was hired by telephone for MI.
Dove the supposed murderer. Only a
moment before Archer was alone, and
II was he who received the original
commission to accompany Dove A
sudden impulse or presentiment of dan
ger led Archer to turn the work over
to Bate.
Archer has for months believed him
self in danger since he gave testimony
in the case of an alleged professional
stugger, who was charged with attack
ing non union electrical workers. and
who was freed by a change of court
records. The alteration of the records
was discovered. and led To the conVIc-
ton Of a court clerk and several OH
Gals of labor unions on a charge Of
conspiracy. Other cases were still
pending
