THERE nay Be no PANne
City of Crookston 1t Is Thought, Is On
Against Tough Proposition
Now

Crookston Times: An attorney for
the Barber Asphalt company was in
the city yesterday comforting with City
Attorney O'Brien about the paving
bids which have been called for, to
be presented at the regular May meet
ing OF the city council which will be
held at the city hall next Thursday
evening. The barber Asphalt company
was the company which did the
asphalt paving on the streets already
paved with that material and they are
one of the best paving companies in
the country.
From what the attorney for the Bar
Der company said yesterday it is pos
sible that Crookstons proposed paw
Ing will have to be passed up for an
indefinite period 1t is understood that
the companys attorneys will advise
their company that in their opinion
the city of Crookston has no power to
enter into contract for paving under
the present city charter, until fifty
per cent of the special assessment
levied to pay for the work has been
paid into the city treasury and that the
assessment must be levied in accord
ance with the requirements of the city
charter. In other words, that it is not
permissible to make such improvement
and apportion the cost over a period of
years as was done with former paw
ing improvements, but that the whole
cost must be paid in one payment and
fifty per cent of it paid into the treas
ury before the contract can be let.

Dakota jobbing interests will vanish.

ITO some extent the mail order
houses will profit by this order of
the state railway and warehouse COM
mission. in case 1t goes into effect.
For instance, there are certain sup
ply houses who make shipments of
carloads of goods from Chicago direct
to consumers These shipments will
be routed at first to Minnesota ter
minals and then re-shipped under the
reduced commodity rate. This advan-
tage of outside interests was no doubt
entirely overlooked.
This order of the commission is
so clearly discrimination that there
is not much question but what a fair
minded judge or court would grant
an injunction against putting it into
effect, which will be petitioned for
Leaving aside the question of IA
voring the jobbing points in the in

is question of discrimination within
the state itself. The various jobbing

ditions that were we'll known as to

unfair to discriminate against the old

Minneapolis, Saltwater and Duluth,
who have built up their business by
years of labor and expense on basis
of rates, which were fair and equal
to all.

A Yankee Tourist,

The most interesting announcement
of the coming attractions booked for
the Metropolitan is that concerning
the production in this city of Henry
w. Savage's new comic opera, "A
Yankee Tourist" in which Raymond
Hitchcock is starring. Raymond
Hitchcock is always sure Of a hearty
welcome wherever he goes and he is
always as funny or funnier than any
other present day comedian, but in
"A Yankee Tourist" he is given a
greater opportunity to display his
droll style of humor and the result
is that more pleasing play could
not be imagined. Richard Harding
Davis, the noted author and war cor
respondent, wrote the book especially
for Mr.. Hitchcock; Wallace Irwin has
written the lyrics, while the music
comes from the facile pen of Alfred
G. Robyn. A large number of favor
ties are in the cast and the chorus
is said to be the prettiest and best
singing bevy of girls ever sent out
from the Savage headquarters. "A
Yankee Tourist" is by far the most
successful and pleasing comic opera
to0visit Grand Forks this season.

est fad of mankind. it is evident that
the commission has become much con-
fused in their desire to carry out the
commendable idea of developing the
interior of the state. they having by
their order for reduction in COM
modify rates to the points enumerat-
ed made it possible for the jobbing
interests of Grand Forks. Fargo and
Wahpeton to profit at the expense of
Minnesota industries, and in this way
the jobbing interests at these points
will take advantage of making ship
ments from the east to the Twin Cities
and Duluth and then re-bill or re-
ship from these Minnesota terminals
to East Grand Forks, Moorhead and
Breckenridge, Minnesota, thus not on
ly securing the advantage of every
low commodity rate at Minnesota ter
minals, but an unfair advantage over
Minnesota jobbing interests in having
their goods laid down at nearby Min
nesota points on low commodity rates
from Minnesota terminals.

"If such interests at these interior
points heretofore mentioned secured
the bulk of their supplies from Min
nesota terminals there would be
different aspect to the case. This,
however. is not So All of the sugar,
tea, coffee, syrup. tobacco and canned
goods are all imported; the basis of
supplies originate outside of the state,
and it is only fair and just that all
jobbing interests of the state be kept
upon the same basis as at present.
