NORTHWEST NEWS
HARVEST HANDS MUCH NEEDED
NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS HAVE
BIG CROP AND WANT MEN
TO HANDLE 1T.

st. Paul, Aug. 14.-Men are wanted
and wanted badly in the North Dakota
harvest fields. So great is the demand
that the civic and commercial bodies
throughout the state have taken up the
cry and are making every effort to Sc
cure men Conditions are very favor
able for an average crop throughout
the Northwest, and the pay offered by
the farmers is very good, with steady
work up to the middle of November
assured.
A. J. Wells of Grafton, N. D., who
was in the city yesterday, said that
from now on the farmers will be able
to use more help than they can posi-
bly, get and they are worrying good
deal about the annual shortage Of men.
''The grain crop in North Dakota
this year is an excellent one," said Mr..
Wells, "and thousands of men will be
needed to harvest it. Our commission
er of agriculture estimates that at
least $500 men will be needed and
every effort is being made to secure
them. The commercial clubs through
out the state have taken the matter up
and are sending advertising matter
through the country explaining the sit
uatiOn.
Probably better wages will be paid
this year than ever before"

south warehouse was mass OF ruins,
entailing a loss of $4,000, the remain
der of the warehouse emitting huge
clouds of smoke. threatened to blaze
up any moment.
Famed by the heavy south wind
the flames swept above the entire
plant and only prompt work upon the
part of the firemen prevented gen
eral confiagration. The real check to
the fire was a twO-fOot brick fireWau
built about midway into the south
warehouse. The flames were unable
to leap this wall, and, driven into a
corner, were partially subdued after a
fight of six hours.
Owing to the infiammable stuff, raw
fax, stored in the warehouse, it was
almost impossible to make any head
way. against the flames, which, famed
by the rising wind, swept over the
building, jumping from section to sec
ton of the warehouse. Several times
it seemed as though the fire wall
would give way or that the flame
would leap it and jump to the north
side, where a clean sweep awaited.
But the heroic work of the firemen,
coupled with the strength of the wall,
held the blaze back and at 3 o'clock
there was a good chance Of saving the
rest of the plant

SaIoonkeeper Is Badly Hurt, but Pur-
sues Assailant.
A bold attempt at murder and rob-
berry was reported to the police at Ra-
cine by Richard Asby, proprietor Of
a Main street silicon.
Ashby was badly cut about the
head, he alleges, by a highwayman
who attempted to- hold up his place.
He says that he was in front OF his sa-
loon about 10 o'clock when there was
a loud knock at the rear door. he
supposed it was customer for a pail
of beer and opened the door.
A tall man, dressed in black, with a
black mask or his face and white
hat pulled down over his forehead, at
tackled him with a billy, cutting a bad
cash in his head.
Asby grappled with the thief and
got him down, but the bandit struck
him three or four times over the head
and then broke away. Yelling Muir
der!" at the top of his voice and with
his blood leaving a crimson trail be-
hind him, Asby pursued the robber
until he lodged into an alley and dis
appeared.
Asby is in a critical condition, but
it is believed will recover. There is
no clue to the bandit.

TRY TO AVOID COAL SHORTAGE
GREAT NORTHERN APPEALS TO
TOWNS TO LAY IN WINTER
SUPPLY.

st. Paul, Aug. lathe traffic ON
Gals of the Great Northern railway,
by means of frequent reports from
each station on it's main and branch
lines in Northern Minnesota ana
North Dakota. have been closely
watching the fuel supply at these
points since April of this year and are
using every means available to i'm
press the people in this territory WITH
the urgfient fuel requirements now,
while the coal is to be had at the
Head of the Lakes and the equipment
necessary to haul it is available.
The Great Northern is forwarding
to the newspapers in Northern Min
nesota and North Dakota letter stat
ing the percentage of coal on hand at
each point July 81, 1907, as. compared
with the total amount of fuel con-
sumed in each locality in 1906. A
number of towns have needed the pre-
viCus appeals of the railroads and now
have on hand a supply Of coal that
practically insures them against
shortage during next winter. How
ever. the majority of towns on both
the main and branch lines are still
Withholding their coal orders, and the
supply on hand is being steadily de-
creased by the demand for present
use. More than one-half the towns in
the district affected by the shortage
last winter have less than 10 per cent
of the quantity consumed during 1906
now on hand, and a number of the
smaller towns have less than per
cent
The supply on hand July 81 at
towns and cities in Northern Mime
sofa and North Dakota averages about
Is per cent of the total amount of fuel
used at those points in 1906.
In the face of the figures given by
the Great Northern, the probability
of repetition of last winters expert
enee is great unless the public bark
ems to the warnings of the railroad
and puts in its coal before the heavy
east-bOund grain movement takes the
empty cars away from the Head of the
Lakes and retains them in the service
until cold weather sets in.

ASHLAND NOT DEAD TOWN.
City Which Once Led world in Lunn-
Der Trade Wins New Enterprises.

Notwithstanding that it has lost the
distinction of being one OF the greatest
lumber manufacturing centers in the
world. and that while a few years ago
it had ten big sawmills. whereas now
only two plants of this kind are in OPP
Grafton, the city of Ashland is far from
being the dead town predicted as its
fate with the disappearance of the
pine timber that once stood in great
forests in the region tributary to it.
Like Menominee, Mica, what this
Lake Superior port has lost by the
closing of the sawmills, 1t is more than
regaining through the establishment of
new Industries.
The outlet of the Gogebic iron range,
with it's many big mines, Ashland
ranks high as a shipping point. Ore
piers are maintained by both the Chi
cago & Northwestern and Wisconsin
Central railroads. Last year the for
mer company expended over $600,0GC
in improving it's dock system, and dur
ing the coming winter it will erect
new dock at cost of almost $1,000,
O00 A -four mill, also stave MILL
were recently established and the
Lake Superior Iron and Steel cOmpa-
ny's charcoal iron furnace is doing a
bigger business now than at any pre-
vious time in it's history. This plant
will be in commission for many years
to come. In connection with it there
are in the neighborhOod Of $50 kilns in
commission.
Ashland will within few years be
one of the largest coal distributing
points in the country. A strong COM
pany has been organized by prominent
Minnesota and Nebraska interests for
the establishment of a big dock enter
prise. Work was started on the dock
some two months ago, since which
time operations have been pushed with
energy, as it is desired to have it
completed in time for the delivery Of
coal before navigation closes. 1t is the
purpose of the promoters to make Ash
| land the coal distributing point for
many of the cities of Minnesota and
Nebraska. The same freight rates as
are granted to Duluth have been as
sured the Ashland people, despite the
fact that Ashland is seventy miles far
Their east The business of the COM
pany will be conducted on co-opera-
tive plan, and it is expected that an
immense tonnage of coal will be han
died annually.
Ashland's Advancement association,
composed of it's leading business men,
is largely responsible for the establish
ment of the new industries. The asso-
cations officers are now after other
enterprises. The location is desirable
| for -four mills and number of the big
mill men of Minnesota are figuring on
establishing plants there. The harbor,
with it's fourteen miles of water front,
is one of the finest on the lakes.-W.

MAKES BIG CUT IN STOCK RATE.
Commission SIashes Freights on Live
Stock From to IS Per Cent.

Stock From to 25 Per Cent.
The Wisconsin railroad commission
issued an order requiring four of the
leading railroads of the state to reduce
their rates on live stock from the prin-
cipal stock shipping points of the state
to Milwaukee and Cudahy from 5 to 20
per cent. The order was issued on pc
tition of Former Secretary of State
w. L. Houser of Mondovi and will take
effect in twenty days unless the rail
roads appeal to the courts. The rail-
road companies affected are the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul, Chicago
& Northwestern, Wisconsin Central
and Chicago, ST. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha.
The largest reductions are at points
in the central and western parts of
the state, where cuts approximate %
per cent in many cases. The smallest
reductions are in the eastern part of
the state, along the lake shore region
to the north of Milwaukee
1t is expected that the reductions in
rates will greatly stimulate the Mil
waukee live stock market and enable
it to compete with the Chicago mar
ket
The reduction affects the Transports
ton of cattle, calves, hogs, sheep,
horses, mules and goats. No specific
rates are given for horses and mules,
but they will be 10 per cent of the
rates of cattle and calves
The commissions order is a long
document and discusses the question
of live stock raising eXhaustively. The
commission explained that it deemed it
necessary to make a general investi-
cation of the rates in Wisconsin and
not confine itself to the rates specific
| ally complained of by Mr. Houser,
from Mondovi to Milwaukee, so that no
| maladjustment of rates might result.
| Extensive tables are set forth in the
decision, showing almost uniformly
higher rates in Wisconsin than in
either Illinois or Iowa for the same
kind of shipments and same distances.
| ThOs excuses of rates for Wisconsin
over those in Illinois and Iowa. were
| larger IS the distances from MilWau-
kee were greater. In some cases,
usually from places near Milwaukee,
the Wisconsin rates were slightly low
er than those in the other two states
| com pared.-W.

Feline Is Objected to by Husband
Over Whom 1t CraWIs Into Bed.
A marriage which had it's inception in
a matrimonial advertisement in daily
paper has just been wrecked by a pet
cat at Waukesha. In the county court
Theresa Herring was granted di-
vorce from Gottlieb Herring of Muske-
gon and was given $125 alimony.
A French cat played an important
part in the proceedings, the defendant
alleging that the plaintiff insisted on
having the feline sleep with her and
that he objected to it's crawling over
him during the night.
Herring, a few years ago gained
some notoriety by applying to the
county clerk for a blank marriage Ii
cense, stating that he had several
women in mind as prospective brides
and he would fill it out when his Sc
lection was made.

That La Crosse is experiencing an
