ther for a statement of the views Of
the attorneys relative to its power to
compel the railroads which enter Su-
perior but do not have an elevator
there, to erect terminal facilities for
the storage of grain. This evidence
is to be presented at Madison on May 2.
1t is not the plan of the North Da-
kota Bankers committee to await the
action of the Wisconsin Grain and
Warehouse commission in this matter,
however. The question is to be brought
up at the joint meeting of the bankers
committee and the committee from the
North Dakota branch of the American
Society of Equity which is to be held
in Grand Forks next week and it is
quite possible that at that time ar
rangements may be made for the erec-
ton of an elevator at Superior by
North Dakota interests which will be
independent of railroad or board of
