The New Abstract Law.

Grand Forks Times: Real estate
men and property holders Of the state
are said to be much pleased with the
passage Of the new abstract law,
which makes the abstractor RESPONSE
BILE for the accuracy Of the abstract
issued by him, not only to the person
for whom it is directly made, hut to
everybody into whose hands the abb
#stract may pass, thus protecting the
property holder more fully than be-
fore. Under the old law the abstrac-
tor was liable only to the person for
whom the abstract was made for the
accuracy Of the abstract, and as fire.
quently the same property changed
hands many times. the abstractor was
relieved from responsibility after the
person for whom the abstract was
made had disposed Of his property.
The abstractor is placed under a heavy
bond. under the new law, which fur
ther increases his responsibility.

Fargo. Forum: STANDARD ization of |
grain grading all over the country
through government supervision and
inspection is likely to be brought
about before long. This is something
which has been eagerly hoped for by
the elevator men and grain raisers Of |
North Dakota for a long time, and now
from all appearances their hopes are
about to be realized. According to
reports which have come from Wash
ington, Senators Hansbrough and Nc
Cumber have succeeded in carrying
their point for government inspec tion,
and it will not be long before govern
ment inspection stations will be estab-
slished at Minneapolis, Duluth and st.
Louis.
In these stations there will be ex-
tensive laboratories for the testing OF
grains Of all kinds, and they viii be
in charge Of government experts. At
the present time the millers in Min
neapolis have their own laboratories
for testing wheat and flour, and the
barley buyers have facilities for test
ing barley, but all Of these things will
be covered by the government inspec-a
ton, once this is established. 8
Through the efforts of Senator
hansbrough, a provision was inserted
in the agricultural appropriation bill
more than a year ago authorizing the
estab Enlistment Of two laboratories for
testing grain. One Of these was put
in operation in Baltimore and the
other in New York The plan thus
given a trial has proved most sue
cessfuI, and it has developed that
European buyers much prefer the
grain that has been inspected by the
government to any other. AS result
Eof this it has been decided to establish
the three new laboratory stations mem
toned above and in addition one will
probably be setabllsned later at New
IOrIeans and one at Seattle or San.
Francisco.
Should the plan be carried out as
outlined, it will practically do away
with state grain inspection and grad
ing at terminal points from which
North Dakota producers have suffered
II rs 81 me
so much.
4 TITS understood that the government
has also perfected an apparatus for
the accurate and scientific inspection
of grain, and 1t will not be long before
this can be furnished at the cost to
grain producers and elevators SO that
all can make their own inspections
and determine the grade of the grain
they send to market, so that they can
not be cheated in the grading or by
excessive dockage.

FACT THAT MAY
SIGNIFY MUCH
Atkinson and ShingIe Write
CabIegrams on Site, at
One Desk.

Nothing definite has been divulged
since Saturday in the Federal building
site matter with one significant excep-
ton.
1t is known that on Saturday cable
grams were sent to washington by Act
ing Governor Atkinson and Robert W.
Shingle
Both dispatches were written in Mr..
Shingles office at the rooms of the
Henry Waterhouse Trust Co. From
this fact it might be surmised that
Mr.. Atkinson, who had been under
stood to have been favoring the Irwin
site, had come to some amicable un-
derstanding with Mr.. Shingle relative
to the Mahuka site
AS stated in the Sunday Advertiser
things had latterly come considerably
the way of the Mahuka site cause, one
of the chief items in its favor being
the fact that the condition stipulated
by Treasury Agent H. A. Taylor, with
whom il was first choice-namely, that
Bishop street should be opened to Mer-
chant street-had been satisfactorily
arranged for.

WORDING THE
NEW LICENSES
License Commissioners Act on
the Matter at Their
Meeting.

The Board of Liquor License Com
missioners at their meeting yesterday
afternoon considered the form and
wording of the licenses to be issued.
The wording of the license received
much consideration. The striking feat
ures of it as finally decided on were
in striking letters and in the case of
retail licenses whether the license was
for saloon, a restaurant, or a hotel,
and in the case of restaurant or hotel
whether the special privilege of selling
after hours and on Sunday are or are
not granted. In this a glance at
license will show its character and
whether the business being carried on
is authorized by it.
In the wording of the license the
statute is very closely followed. The
class of license is given, and then the
definition of the kind Of business which
may be carried on under it is given in
the words of the statute. In the sec
Ond class retail license the full deflni-
ton contained in the statute may not |
be given, though this was not finally |
decided on. In all others 1t will be.
The license viii further describe with |
iefniteness the exact premises licensed /
and Will state that the license is not |
without the written con-
tent of the Board, nor is it applicable
o any other premises.
All licenses will state that they are
ubjeet to all the provisions of the law
applicable to them and to the regula-
ions adopted by the Board from time
o time. At one time it was proposed
O print the regulations on the license.
But on further consideration this will
lot be done. but as regulations are
dopted from time to time they will
e certified to each licensee.
The licenses which will be provided
or all the counties by the Territorial
treasurer will be bound in books. {

The Hawaiian Society Sons of the

last night as favoring the good old

The twelfth annual meeting of the
Society was held at its own permanent

acquired during the past year. There
was a good attendance at the meeting.
President John Effinger presided. In
his annual address he said:
1.-The twelfth anniversary of the or
ganization of this society is now at
hand. From the reports of the Board
of Managers and the officers you will
see that we have not been idle in the
cause for which they stand. From
eighteen members in 1895 we are now
coming near the century mark in point
of numbers and it is only the lack of
time and opportunity that prevents us
getting more applications. It is earn
estly hoped that the new Board of
Managers will take the matter of Sc
curing new members up seriously as
most certainly in the case of an organi-
cation like ours numbers is strength.

SWEEPING POLICY OF ECONOMY

Railroad Company has just decided upon
a sweeping policy of economies. 1t is an

hands upon the steam system will be laid
off. besides several hundred more In the
Rhode Island trolley. service. Work upon
a very large number of the improvements
will either be stopped or largely cur
tailed.
Included in these improvements are
various double tracking work, the tunnel
work on the Highland division between
Waterbury and Bristol. q part of the
work on the Kew Haven Improvements
and also a part of the work upon the
extra tracking in connection with the
Harlem terminal.
In general the discharges of men will

and depends upon the general financial
situation. The curtailment Is thus to
