ing firms have practically got a pact
or agreement among themselves to
bear the market, and hold down the
prices. Whether this is true the writer
cannot say for certain.
There is no doubt whatever but
that this harvest has been more than
usually expensive to the farmers. The
price of sacks was nearly doubled la
Dor was higher, supplies cost more and
a thousand and one expenses which go
to cut down the amount left to the
farmer for his share of the crop pro
ceeds.
Whether the quality of the barley
of this county as a whole can stand
the forming of a pool is a question
for the farmers themselves to decide
but there is no doubt but the proper
tion of this years crop that will be ex.
ported as brewing barley as COM
pared with the whole will not be
nearly as great this year as last and
this should also be considered. Yet
il might be that the high quality OF
brewing barley usually sent from
here may be short in other places
and the thing might thus be equalized
maintaining a good price still.

When asked this morning about his

the railways will do. Some of them
may file statements. AS for those
that refuse, the law authorizes me to
direct the prosecuting attorneys of
the various districts to bring suit to

will be done. Prosecutions shall be

Further than this, there has been

the code of 1902, referring to the act
of 1885. as set forth in Hill's code,
says in foot note: The entire chap

the recital to that effect in the re-
pealing act of October 10, 1885,"
The outcome of the demand on the
railways for statements may be pret-
ty legal battle, but the governor
stands by the code and believes that
the courts will sustain him.

Answer to Dunbar.

Still another interesting letter went
out from the governors office. This
one was I'm answer to the communica-
tion of Secretary of state Dunbar Civ
ing opinion that the act Of 1855 was
repealed by the act of October 10,
1898. which did away with the state
board of railway commissioners. un,
dar the law of 1855 railways are COM
manded to file statements with the
secretary of state. That Is why Gov
ernor Chamberlain wrote to Secretary
Dunbar few weeks ago asking him
to demand the required statements.
Dunbar's reply caused the governor
to take the matter In his own hands.
What the governor wrote to the sec
retary of state yesterday was In sub
stance as follows: Your opinions may
be right and the law may be repealed
but IT is not the function Of an admin
istrative officer to determine legal
question of that kind. That a doubt
exists is made evident by the fact
that the compilers of the code, one

other an attorney representing the
