THE COMMERCIAL CLUB.
The State Association Promises to be
q Important Factor.

. 4 +. ..
That the newly organized associa-
ton Of commercial clubs of North
Dakota 10 arousing considerable inter-
est is evidenced by the number of
letters of inquiry which e. B. Follett
of Fargo. the secretary, Is receiving
from different points In the state where
improvement associations have been
organized or the question of organic
ing Is under consideration. Some Of
these are DESTROYS of learning what
are the requirements for admission
to the association. while others are
from merchants and business men
who desire the state association to CO.
operate with them and assist them in
forming commercial club or similar
body In their own town. /.
Everything IL coming on Nicely
said Mr.. Follett, in discussing the
matter. 1.-THE different commercial
clubs which have become members
are taking hold with will, electing
the Officers apportioned to them and
doing everything possible to make the
movement q success. The association
is going to be one Of the biggest things
in the state before long, and 1t will
prove Of great benefit to North Dakota
by stimulating and assisting the
growth and development Of the state.'
It is further pointed out that the as
sociation will be a good advertisement
to the state and will be able to fur
nish prospective settlers with consid-
cradle information regarding the adj
vantages Of residing here; and that
eastern moneyed interests will be led
to make more Investments here when
they realize that there is such COM
mercial Organization In existence bent
upon the Improvement Of the states

particular as to the subject upon
which they joke. Come two weeks
ago, a popular CONGRESSMAN from
Pennsylvania, tired Of financial worry
ended his life after writing note to
the speaker in which he gave the rea-
sons for his rash act A few days ago,
another member from q southern
state received a letter from an old
friend and constituent which read as
follows: ss. ~
Dear John-I see by the newspapers
that one Of your fellow congressman
has committed suicide because he was
financially embarrassed. knowing
that you are chemically hard up and,
fearing that you may be tempted to
follow the example set, I inclose here
with a New York draft for ten dol
lars, in the hope that this will tide
you over and save your life until
congress adjourns. II 1t won't, let
me know. and I'll go you another
ten"
And that congressman cashed the
draft. That evening his frineds all
drank real old fashioned drinks with
grass in 'em." as the Englishman de-
scribed the julep.

SUNDAY PROBLEM.

Associated Press to TIE HvenlAG Tines.
Washington, D. c., June 25.-The
ships of the Atlantic feet will spend
the present summer much after the
same fashion. SO far as concerns
cruising and exercises. as they did
last year. The vessels will have their
rendezvous at Provincetown. Mass,
and will visit such places as Newport,
r. l., Rockport, Mass, and Rockland,
Me-, ON cruises which will take up
much of the time. Later there may
be special exercises. and the seasons
work will end with target practice as
usual on the ranges of Provincetown.
No one in the navy department
knows exactly what Rear Admiral
Evans intends to do with his large
force of enlisted men on Sundays.
1t seems probable that the ships will
find 1t convenient to be at some other
port than Pfovincetown. 80 that the
men may indulge In baseball and
other harmless diversions on Sunday
afternoons without giving offense to
residents, as threatens to be the case
in Provincetown. The Inhabitants Of
that place, however, are by no means
unanimous against Sunday baseball
for the navy, and those who have
spoken for strict observance of the
day have incurred a harsh sort Of
criticism from those of their own
townspeople who think that some re-
spectacle means Of employing the lei
sure time Of bluejackets must be al
lowed on shore on Sundays after their
usual church services on board ship.

Political leaders In New York be-
lieve that unusually large sums Of
money will be expended for campaign
purposes In the coming election. The
regular machines believe that the busi-
ness interests which the radicals are
making the objects Of their attack will
be found ready contributors to the
machine Golfers and that they will
have large campaign fund at their
disposal. With this prospect N view,
they are confronted by the necessity
OF devising plans for meeting the laws
passed by the last legislature. relating
to campaign contributions and ex-
penditures.

that Will be square WITH the packers
and fair to the people.
But 1t Is wonderful what an amount
of good is likely to result from this
discussion. They dumped all sorts of
refuse on North Dakota until We got
our pure food law, but that was only
small affair compared with the work
that was going on In the large cities.
In London last week 1000 tons of
refuse including decayed fruit Of all
kinds, was seized in a factory engaged
In manufacturing jam and jellies.
With their present facilities they make
the choicest creamery butter out of
the rancid stuff and fats that years
ago were only regarded fit for soap
gerase. The decayed eggs are deodor-
lied and sold to confectioners and
used in making sponge cake. The
London Dispatch called attention to
the fact that the decayed berries were
brought to life again and sold for
absolutely fresh goods by soaking
them in analine dyes. And it was
not charged that these goods we're
American. The world had gone wild
in its chase for the almighty dollar
and 1t is time for some one to arouse
the forces that work for good.
The whole world is interested in
this meat inspection business. The
whole world does not know the rob-
berries that have been perpetrated on
the producers of the northwest by
the wheat ring OF Duluth and Min
neapOlis But the people of North
Dakota know, and suggest that they
commence firing In their knowledge to
the president. Let every man who has
a grievance tell it in language that
is plain. and out of the mass there
may come an awakening that will
make another gang OF men who have
grown rich at the expense of the pro-
ducers by operating on illegitimate
lines, plead for mercy, and willing to
submit to honest inspection.
What North Dakota wants is the
wheat inspection that Senator Nc
Cumber's bill provides for and IL 1t
passes 1t will put from 100000 to
5000, 900 annually into the pockets of
the farmers Of our state. They want
that for the money there is In 1t, and
they want the pure food bill for the
health and comfort there Is in 1t.
In electing members of the legisla-
ture this fall 1t Is to be hoped men
will be elected who are alive to the
importance of the movement for pure
feod laws. North Dakota leads many
of the states not only in the law but
in the brains applied in its enforce
ment. Let the law be strengthened
in the light of experience of the past
two years, and give added means to
enforce the law.
The general feeling and hope among
congressman is that they will be able
to get away from Washington by
June 80. The 18th is the day they
have their hopes fixed on. but the
end Is not yet.
There is one good thing about this
congress. Democrats and republicans
are making an honest effort to cor
rect some of the evils of trusts domin-
alton. A democrat said today, "twen-
ty years ago IL president had TAX
en- the course that Roosevelt has TAX
en- he would have been impeached on
an almost countless number of counts.

Of Vital Public Questions.

Washington, June 23.-To The For
UNI: I am sorry to learn that the
continued failing health OF Major Ed
wards has resulted In his resignation,
to take effect June 80. His successor
has already been named. He Is from
Nebraska, the appointment being in
the nature Of promotion under the
consular reorganization act. Under the
same act Colonel Berg gets an in
crease In salary of $500 a year and
goes to Dusseldorf. Germany. John
Bray remains at Melbourne but gets
an advance Of $1,000 year In SAL
airy.
You have doubtless published the
fact that Senator Hansbrough ap-
peared before the house committee
last week and secured favorable re-
port on the senate Red river drainage
bill, and It was understood that the
measure would be called up today,
and would pass the house. It will
be great thing for the Red river
valley II It does. and will mean an ad-
vance Of at least $40 an acre in the
value Of land in the region where the
bill will apply.
The Devils Lake public building and
the MinOt court bill are on the calen-
dar and there Is good reason to ex-
pect that they will be called up and
passed this week or next.
The meat inspection bill has claim
ed ysveryhOdy's attention during the
last week. OF course you have had the
matter in full through the associated
press. and yet there are features that
did not get on the wires.

country and congress with him as
Roosevelt has been able to do. He
could not have accomplished the good
that Roosevelt has accomplished. Car

upon the trade of the country, he has
dared to do right and to demand that
congress do right, and by his daring
he has won the admiration Of the
world.
The feeling is growing here that
Bryan Is the logical candidate Of the
democrats In the next campaign.
Whether there Is anything in that
story from Berlin that he had intimat-

before he risks another donkey ride
can not say. But evidently the conser-
vative element Of the democrats are
turning to Mr.. Bryan to avoid Hearst.

ARCHITECTS SCARCE

SERVICE
Building Boom Has Called
Upon Available Help
Buildings Delayed.
BY e. c. snyder.

washington, ID. c., June rs. -
About the only thing in the way of
an adjournment of congress on the
30th instant is the Omnibus public
building BILL" This measure carries
the authorization for federal buildings
throughout the country and Is one
in which every state is directly inter-
ested. 1t is several years now since
bill of this character was enacted
into law and in the mean time the
force Of expert architects and civil
engineers employed under the treasury
department in the preparation of plans
has dwindled until there is scarcely a
corporals guard left. Under ordinary
circumstances it would be an easy
matter to obtain a new force of COM
petent craftsmen to fill the vacancies.
But this year the building boom"
seems to have struck every city in the
country, and the salaries paid by
architects to their assistants have
been boosted to such a degree, that
the government pay roll has no par
ticular attraction for the young men
who are usually available when their
services are required. While the San
Francisco earthquake and fire caused
great distress and loss of income to
lawyers. doctors and other profess
sional men, 1t has proved boom to
architectural craftsmen and civil en-
gineers. Scores upon scores Of gradu-
ates Of technical schools in the class
es Of 1906 have found places open to
them in the stricken city, and many
of these young men are already on
their way to the coast to take up
positions with the architects already

Railroad Talk.

from an eastern trip. In an interview
with the Walla Walla Union, he said
"There is as much talk in the East
as there is in the West about the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul build
ing through to the coast. It seems to
be settled fact that the road is COM
ing, but could learn nothing about
what route it will probably choose In
so far as Walla Walla is concerned.
The Milwaukee is, however, actually
building on the division out of Ever
etts, S. D., but it will take some time
for it to reach the state of Washing
ton. The w. & G. r. has no plans
for extension during the coming year.
We have our territory pretty well
covered. The only thing of interest
to Walla Walla that we have in sight
is the moving of the car shops"

ONE RATE UNJUST
ANSWER OF RAILROAD COM
MISSIONER TO WHEAT MEN
Eastern Washington Growers ask
for Forced Reduction From
E$3.40 per Blu. to $2.40.

The Washington State Railroad
Commission has received petition
from 260 Big Bend wheat men, asking
that railroads be forced to reduce rates
from $3. 40 to $2.40 a ton on wheat
from Eastern Washington points.
The commission in a $500 word
statement refused to order hearing
until the petitioners are able to bring
proof that the higher rates are unrea-
sonable, within the decision of the
supreme court of the United States.
In other words the commission says
the petitioners must show that the
rates charged are unreasonable con-
sidering the cost of the road, interest
on capital invested and cost of oper-
alton.
The commission says it is trying to
get this information from the railroads
but has not yet secured it, and until
that information is secured by either
the commission or petitioners the COM
plant for railroad rates will not be
set for hearing.
