his instructions with regard to the

FOES MEET
BUT No FUSS
Fish and Harahan Meet at
Directors Gathering
Yesterday.
NO APOLOGIES MADE
Ousted l. G. President Wins Point
Without Battle-Resolu-
tons Accepted.

New York. Sept. 4.-Stuyvesant Fish
and President J. T. Harahan of the
Illinois Central railroad met today at
another Illinois Central board meeting
at II Broadway for the first time since
their personal encounter of the previous
week, but there was nothing warlike
in the meeting.
There were no apologies made either
by Mr.. Fish or Mr.. Harahan for the
events of last week, and every one
concerned treated the matter as
closed incident.
This. however, did not prevent the
Introduction by Mr.. Fish of the reso-
lutions which were at the bottom of
the now famous row between him and
his successor in the presidents chair.
This time the resolutions were accept
ed by Mr.. Fish's fellow directors with
only a minor change, to which he 1n1de
no public objection.
Same Resolutions of a Week Ago.
After the meeting of the board Mr..
Fish would not discuss the proceedings
OF the directors in any way and Mr..
Harahan hurried back to Chicago by
the first train. other directors were
equally reticent but the important de-
tails of the proceedings were learned.
The resolutions were practically
those Mr.. Fish started to read week
ago Upon the request of some Of the
directors, who had to hurry away, the
meeting of last week was adjourned
and then Mr.. Fish and Mr.. Harahan
after a discussion of the matter, had
their personal encounter. Mr.. Fish in
troduced the resolutions today and the
directors listened to the reading of
them quietly.
Wants Facts for Stockholders
1t is understood that the resolutions
called for information from certain Of
fcers in the traffic department of the
road and from the auditors. the pre-
sumption being that Mr.. Fish wants to
gather facts to lay before the stock
holders at the coming annual meeting.
The change made before these resolu-
lions were accepted had to do with the
method of collecting the information,
and with that exception, which had no
bearing at all upon the information it
self. Mr. Fish's wishes were fully COM
piled with by his fellow directors.
Another special meeting of the board
will be held next Wednesday, and at
that time the information desired by
Mr. Fish will be submitted to the board
through the proper Offices in shape for
action
Mr. Fish has insisted at all times that
Mr.. Hartman was really the moving
spirit in the Illinois Central affairs. and
1t is alleged that the information he
has called for viii prove his conten-
tions.

the very best thing for the purpose.

Largest
Bag
Factory
i'm
the
Northwest
Northwest

r HE farmers of the Pacific north
l west, modern, intelligent and up
tO-date in every respect, are beginning
to appreciate the advantages of mar
keting their products in a neat, prac-
ticable and attractive way. Their pro-
ducts are superior and they are learn
ing the lesson that superior products
should be marked in superior pack
ages in order to have the superior
brand. Therefore, the farmers of this
section of the country are very large
purchasers of burlap wheat, barley
and oat bags of every sort and des-
cription for all sorts of farm products.
The largest concern in the Pacific
Northwest engaged in the manufac-
ture of these bags is the Bemis Bro
Bag Co., of Seattle. In fact, this is one
of the largest factories of it's kind
on the Pacific coast and was started
here as branch of the Bemis Bro.
Bag Co., of st. Louis, but has grown
to such proportions as to become one
of the company's p,ain factories.
The secret of the success of this
concern is the fact that they manu-
facture bags which they aim to make
superior in every way to any other
bags, both imported and manufactured.
They have only been in business three
years and yet their factorw is one of
the largest manufacturing institutions
in the city of Seattle. Their "Blue
Stripe" wheat bag, intended for wheat
and oats, and their "Red Stripe" bar
ley bag are recognized by the farmers
of the Pacific slope as the finest, most
substantial bags made for grain in the
United States, and they are very
widely used. They are fast becoming
the farmers standard of what good
bags should be. These bags are abso-
lutely guaranteed by the Bemis Bro.
Bag Co., not only for their strength,
but also for their size, holding as
large an amount of grain as any other
bags on the market
Farmers of the antiquated kind,
who are narrow and prejudiced, are
still inclined to use for their grain
the burlap bags made in India from
cheap coolie labor. These bags are
sold to the farmers without any guar
antee and the purchaser has no pro-
lection. The farmers of this class
prefer the foreign bag because years
ago an inexperienced manufacturer
started making a grain bag on the
Pacific coast which, while it was of
good quality, was smaller in size than
the bag made in India. The farmers
purchased these quite generally, but
when they found that they were
smaller bags and did not hold as much
produce, they believed they had been
treated unjustly, and few of them
have been prejudiced against the bags
made on the coast ever since.
The broader and more intelligent
farmer, however, has determined long
since that the Bemis Bro. Bag Co.
and other concerns on the Pacific
coast can make better bags than those

The CITY ALDERMEN.

AS the time approaches for
the election of a new board of
city aldermen or the reelection
of the present board, there is
talk among people generally, and
the trend of such talk is some
what divided.
Some are Of the opinion that
the present board of aldermen
should BE allowed to continue
the work they have begun, and
point to the progress that has
been made by them in better
streets and sidewalks. That the
present board stands for progress
such as in keeping with Durham,
and that such should be endorsed
by the people.
Others are Of the opinion that
we need in the city a more
economical administration of its
agairs, and that a new set of
men should be elected as alder
men, that the present board have
spent all the money they had in
the treasury, and all that they
could borrow, and that now they
want to issue bonds to pay off
said Indebtedness. So far no
definite steps have been taken
for the running of a new set Of
men for this position. The anti
saloon league has not announced
its intention of putting out a
ticket.
