!, Lisbon, N: D., April AT o. The
Forum: see my friend: Knute of
Upham, N. D., is knocking macaroni
wheat again. What difference does it
make to durum wheat culture whether
my ancestors are Irish or Knute's
bold Viking pirates Of the sea-" or
Fishers from Trondhjem?" 1t is the
pedigree of macaroni wheat, not peo-
pie in which North Dakota farmers
are interested. We don't care if
"Knute" owns thousand acres. He
is knocking against an important
North Dakota product to which any
loyal North Dakotan has a right to
object. E%>< !r5 ..:-.. =. .>si,,..@
| North Dakota produced the first
wheat that originated the No. i hard,
now famous over the whole civilized
world. She is now most important

"a new element known as durum or
macaroni wheat. 1t is product Of

If Knute loves the hobo and wants
to give him ten n hours pay for five

this busy progressive age, when wages
are goodI have no time for man who
4 is too lazy to earn his own bread and
who squanders what little he does earn

SOCIETY TALKS ON
IMMIGRATION LAW
American Social Science Association
Holds General
Meeting.

New York, May S.-The distribution of
Immigrants was the subject of the gem
eral meeting OF the American Social
Science association today Raymond ID,
Griffith, president of the Southern lmmi-
grafton society. speaking on Encouraging
Immigration to the South" asserted that
the organization OF many state immigra-
ton departments was loose and imprac-
ticable. and that the heads were often
successful politicians, rather than we'll
informed immigration men.
The demand In the south for imm-
grafton, he said, was strong and the ma
chinery that exists was being rapidly
perfected. 1t was not prophecy to say
that the old fellows would be squeezed
out by young energetic, well-informed
immigration meh
Prescott F. Hall of Boston, author of
immigration treatises. said the foreign
born population had more than twice its
normal proportion of inmates of the in
sane asylums and charitable institutions
of the country, and the allen population
furnished nearly ten times its normal
proportion.

WHITAKER BEFORE
THE COMMISSION
ADMITS THAT HIS ROAD MADE A
SPECIAL RATE ON COAL TO THE
CINCINNATI GAS AND ELECTRIC
COMPANY.

Washington. May at. NJ Whitaker.
freight traffic manager of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad, at todays session
in the hearing before the interstate COM
merce commission in the coal and oil in
vestgation, was questioned relative to
conference of railway officials at Bal
timore March s last, at which the wit
ness was present Mr.. Whitaker said that
for some years the coal shippers on the
Chesapeake and Ohio had been furnish
ing coal to the Southern, but that the
! business having been diverted the Ches-
apeake and Ohio lost the traffic. He said
his people concluded that 1t was due to
an inequitable adjustment of rates, and
that they felt that it was desirable to
have a conference. At the Baltimore
meeting the Baltimore and Ohio was
asked by the Chesapeake and Ohio not
to give a fiat rate for fuel coal to the
Southern the Baltimore and Ohio agree
ing to do so.
/ In the course of his testimony Mr..
Whitaker said a special rate had been
put in for coal shipped to the Cincinnati
Gas and Electric company. but that any
shipper could have the same rate. He ex-
planned that the Kanawha Fuel company
had told them that they had contract
with the gas and electric company, and
unless the Chesapeake and Ohio could
give them a rate, they would ship by
water. The rate was made to compete
with the water route.
Mr. Whitaker was not sure as to the
lagality of the rate and said 1t was his
intention to submit 1t to the commits
sion.
At the afternoon session w. G. Nc
Dowell. vice president of the Norfolk and
Western, testified that the company was
the owner of the stock of the Pocahon-
tas Coal and Coke company.

one. it must lie on your heart and mind

sponsbiltles, but 1t deals with matters
entirely temporary. The things which

the materials that go to make pig iron
lie so close together that running through
convenient and HARDLY furnaces we boast
that we make 1t cheaper than 1t can be
made in any other portion of the world !;
and iron that Is capable cheaply Of being
converted into steel There are many
among us who hold to the idea that we
shall In future make the price OF steel

fine chance ahead of floating the sew
eral ingredients separately and collective

homes to deep water; and SO we hope to
be able to say that our iron, and coal
