milk PRICES WERE
RAISED THIS
MORNING
Fourteen Quarts Are Now
Peddled by Dairymen for
q Dollar.
q. s. DICKSON Is TO QUIT
Says He Will Not Do Work
Under the New Ordinance
Recently Passed.
q. s. DICKSON Is TO QUIT

A raise in the price of milk was
made by Grand Forks dairy men this
morning. Fourteen quarts for a dol
lar is the price, where formerly six
teen quarts were given.
G. c. Dickson, one of the prominent
milk men of Grand Forks stated to
the Evening Times this afternoon:
"The raise in the price of milk was
made on account of the increase in
the price of feed, inability to secure
cows and the high price of labor" He
denied that the new ordinance recent
ly passed by the council had anything
to do with his action in raising the
milk prices.
F. G. Draper stated that he made the
raise in the price of milk in order to
prepare himself for the enforcement
of the recently lassed milk ordinance,
and on account of feed prices.
Mr.. Dickson thought that soon a
reduction would be made.
In addition to announcing that the
milk price had raised, the announce
ment was made this afternoon that
G. G. Dickson would discontinue the
dairy business very soon. Mr.. Dick
son stated that the report was correct,
and that he would discontinue selling
milk when the new ordinance goes
into effect, He said that he did not
believe that he had received square
deal in the matter, and is feeling
rather sore. Mr. Dickson estimates
that when the ordinance goes into
effect that there would be shortage
of from $50 to 200 COWS in Grand
Forks. He said people living in the
country and furnishing local milk men
with milk would not continue to do so
under the provisions of the new or
dinance.

A'Iinely
Hint

Reports are coming in that
our Hydro Carbon oil is being
received in many towns where
they have been obliged to burn
candles, owing to the inability
of the great trust to fill all Of
their orders. We prepared for
this blockade last fall by keep
ing our tanks full and have
come to the rescue many times.
If you burn oil and want a
GOOD light call for Bartles
oil. If your dealer don't sell it
call us up. You don't need a
special lamp or smokeless de-
vice-it will burn in any old
lamp provided you put in a
new wick.

b|-ACKSM|THS MEET
At BISMARCK
IN FEB.
Have Several Matters They
Wish to Put Before Legis-
lature This Year.

The North Dakota Blacksmith's as
ISOLATION will hold a meeting in Bis
marck on Wednesday, Feb. 6, accord
ing to Secretary Mirehouse who was
in Grand Forks this morning. The
Blacksmith's association was organ
lied in Grand Forks last winter, and
at that time it was decided to mold the
next meeting in Bismarck during the
session of the legislature
There are several important matters
to come mp. The association will urge
certain legislation in their own inter-
ests, and it is for this purpose that the
meeting will be held. The session will
probably last two days. During the
last year, or since its organization, the
growth has been wonderful.

TRIP FROM COAST IS HARD
Railway Facilities Are Not What They
Are Cracked Up to Be Says a
Former Grand Forks Man.

Stephen ]. Raetz, a former resident
of the city and now of Tacoma, WASH,
arrived in the city on Tuesday night
from the coast and renewed friend
ship with old-time friends. When
speaking Of the snow blockade and
railway hardships, Mr.. Raetz volun-
teered the information that his train
from the west reached this city ex-
actly seventy-two hours late. Mr..
Straetz also stated that on several
stages of his journey there was con-
siderable suffering and privation on
the train. Heating facilities were i'm
paired for stretches of a hundred
miles or more and the passengers
took turns pacing up and down the
aisles clapping their arms to keep the
blood in circulation. The more lucky
ons wore their overshoes and furs,
while the others kept warm as best
they could. The lights went bump"
several times also, and candles were
utilized.
Altogether he says the trip was one
which he would not care to repeat.

In the west they say Bill Sweeney,
who is to be a Chicago Cub next sea-
son, has Hal Chase, Frank Chance and
Joe Nealon skinned mile, is faster
than Miller Higgins, was the best
shortstop on the Pacific coast and can
beat Maloney or Browne getting down
to first. Gee Whiz! This mellow is too
good for Chicago.
We all think we have lot more
coming to us than we ever get.

Reasonable Prospect for n Good
Court House.

1t is q pleasure to note that the members Of
the Court House Commission who come from
outside the city limits are quoted as being a.
anxious for a good court house as the mos,
enthusiastic townsman. At first We feared
that they might have such a spasm Of econo-
my as would scare Captain Nickles and the
town COIN % issioners out ofa laudable ambi.
ton but 1t seems tha'I the names OF those
outside the. city, like "Abou Ben Adhem's,
lead all the rest" In the desire for II bs ,uti
ful court house. The people Of Aboeviile
County are not exceedingly rich in this
worlds goods, but they are proud. and their
great plumbers make them able tn build as
good a court house as am body could wish to
have. Let US build q court house so good, 80
strong, and 80 beautiful that the next gene
ration will not be put to the necessity Of
tearing II down two or three times as this
generation has done.
This editor has already seen three court
houses on the public square. and II the pro-
posed bulldog that Ia TO be built OF the old
brick and the old timbers now in the barn, is
to be counted as q new one, that will make
four court houses that have been built In q
life time.
Let US build a house OF which the people
living at a distance will be proud to see, and
one which the next generation will not for
sheer shame, destroy.

Dancing Pavilion and Skating Rink

Il DnnelnE thVItlOu u 81 NA
We learn that the young people propose TO
build a dancing pavilion and a skating rink
in some suitable place in the city. AS we
understand. the place most favored is Klugh's
p ,rk.
Abbeville needs a park, and there Is no
place as suitable or as desirable az the park
In front of Judge KluRh's home.
Mayor Mcmillan and his associate council
men nave done more for the town than any
body else, and, on the principle that II q
man wants TO get work done he must 60 TO a
busy man 10 get 1t, we suggust that Mayor
Mcmillan and his associates appropriate
eaough money from the city treasury to buy
a park. The grove In front OF Judge K!ugh'r
house seems to be an ideal place. III can be-
bought at any reasonable price, we suggest
that the town should buy 1t, and then appro.
pirate 81, 900 Or 81 500 to improving 1t and n1
It up for young people, and old people. too.
| Benches and swings should be there. A
great pavilion should be built, where old AMI
young may assemble for q pleasant hour
1t is only a little while that they are young
and flight OF heart. They room assume the
duties n responsibilities OF life. and their
days for social gatherings usually come to en-
cad when they establish q new home Of their
own, and they usually close the door OF
their thoughts 10 the great outside world.
A little innocent amusement is good for
all, and we regard a reasonable participation
In the dance as innocent and as teaching
grace OF manner. but, as an old bachelor. II
we we're on q jury, we should not say as
much for the skating rink. While We would
not presume to be the keeper OF n mani
o ,nscience, yet, speaking from an old
bachelors view point, he would not allow Il
girl who was in bis charge to skate.
This editor loves TO see young people In In
~nocent a nusement, but We have convictions
against the skating rink.
The young people in case the City Council
does not provide a dancing pavilion, may
call on you for help, but we would be more
pleased If the young people danced in the
hotel or In some of the halls In town. A
pavilion In q park for dancing does not ap-
peal to US. And a place anywhere for skat.
Ing does not commend itself.
or course what we say about skating Il
merely the expression OF the prejudice and
Ignorance OF q bachelor. We are not trying
to think for you on a subject about which
you are possibly better Informed.

Unnecessary and Improbable.

1t may be that our recent playful reference
to Anderson, which we thought would be
regarded as 1t was intended, In good humor
was not 30 received.
And it may be. that our reference 10 An
derson, as we thought In q playful manner
has furnished the Anderson Mail with a pre-
text for throwing stones at Abbeville. Ifso
we are sorry. We would neither knowingly
nor Intentionally offend the Mail or give II
pretext for speaking slightingly OF this peo-
pie. We know that the Daily Mall would
not knowingly do our people IN Injustice
and we feel quite sure that the Mail spoke
even as we subscribed to the school, under
misapprehension OF the facts.
We have always thought that the Daily
Mail was governed by a disposition 10 be just
and fair, and IN this instance that paper
must have been disposed 10 settle some cher
ished grievance at this ONCE.
At any rate, Abbeville is conscious OF the
rectitude Of her course.
