Mr.. Bell of Fargo, agent for
the Hart-Parr gasoline engine
was here a few days last week
in the interests of his business.
He spent Saturday and Sunday
with Thos. Kranick and sons, old
acquaintances from Minnesota.
He was very favorably impressed
with the country and thought the
outlook for the gasoline engine
plow rig was good.
The initial number Of the
Wibaux Pioneer made it's appear
ance Monday as u four page, six
column. It is very bright star
in newspaperdom and nearly
every business place Of Wibaux
is represented by an advertise
ment. We wish brother Shear
and the Pioneer full measure of
success.
Mrs. Anna L. Peck and daugh-
ter, Miss Eva, arrived from MIMI
eapolis last Monday evening, after
starting in a. blizzard and being
on the road since Saturday even
ing. They came to establish
residence on their homesteads
about seven miles from town, and
like the rest Of as, feel that 100
acres in the beautiful Golden
Valley is we'll worth facing Il
blizzard to obtain.

that the vacant land in North

LUNACY COMMISSION
 TO REPORT TOMORROW

Continued from First Page.)
 The commission decided to-day 10 ad- init the much discussed testimony of Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton, who stat ed that he made four examinations of Harry Thaw, the last in July, 1906 He came to the conclusion at that time that Thaw was suffering from chronic delu- sional insanity or paranoia and still held to this belief. On s-examina~ tion Dr. Hamilton admitted he had not examined the defendant recently, The defendants counsel fought against pr. Hamiltons testimony to the very last. Failing in the plea of professional priv ilege as a bar they argued that his ex- aminations of the defendant were too remote to be of any value at this time. The commission decided to allow the testimony for what it might be worth
 pr. c. F. Bingaman, the Thaw fam fly physician from Pittsburg, was also allowed to testify, over the protest of Thaws counsel as to traces of insani- ty in the Thaw and Copley families.
 Members of the commission cross-ex- amined several of the district attorneys s alienists at length, inquiring as to the consistency of their testimony now that Thaw is insane and has been so for several years, as against their testimo- ny at the trial when in answer to hy- pothetical question they declared Thaw knew the nature and quality Of his act when he shot and killed Stan ford White and knew that the act was wrong, Dr Austin Flint declared that Thaw was insane from the alicnist's point of view when the homicide oc cured but was not insane In the lan- guage Of the law Mir. Jerome's ex ports one after another agreed that Thaw Is paranoiac and that his case is incurable. They reached this conclu- sion, they repeated, on cross examtna- tion, upon an assumption of facts and not as the result of personal examin- ation of the defendant
 Dr. Flint gave q new an dpicturesque touch to the form of insanity from which it is alleged Thaw is suffering, by declaring that his former paranoiac- al delusions. of. persecution are rapidly changing into "delusions of grandeur

tors as witnesses for the defense re- Peated on the stand some of the re- marks Thaw has made during the pro- gress of the trial. Dr. Graeme M. Hammond declared that when Thaw's counsel announced at the trial that they would agree to District Attorney Jerome's suggestion that pr. Allan Nc Lane Hamilton should tell everything he knew. the prisoner turned to hin. and said:
 T think those lawyers need a com mission more than I do."
 Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, nattily attired in a new spring suit of brown and black straw sailor hat, was present during all of to-day's session. It soon became evident, however, that she was not to be called as a witness as MT. Jerome threatened on Monday when he had a subpoena served upon her.

A SQUARE DEAL FOR RAILROADS.

Figures that cannot be questioned
show that while freight rates have
been cut in half and the passengers
carried cheaper than anywhere else in
the world. the cost OF everything a
railroad uses has gone up from 30 TO
100 per cent. The Pennsylvania in
1917 earned LOLA cents ton mile; in
1865 rs earnings had been cut to half
Of this, 80 cents. Wages during TIE
same period have increased 30 per
cent. for 1907 the Pennsylvania S
payroll alone will be $l2, 600, 600
more than for 1906.
President Finley Of the Southern
shows that the cost of bridge timber
has increased from 50 to $40 per thous-
and feet ties from 2S to S5 cents; rails
from SIS TO $50 a ton; locomotives
from Si2. 900 TO double that amount !;
passenger coaches from 81, 600 to $i0,-
900: freight cars and other equipment
and material in proportion. This
means an outlay of millions to a road
like the Pennsylvania, which bought
II, 600 freight cars last year and has
already ordered an even greater num-
her for delivery in 1907. OF course
railroad taxes have increased and the
terminal properties required by mod
ern conditions now involve fabulous
OUTLAWS.
Al the same time carriers are called
upon TO increase their trackage, ter
minals. equipment and operating
stan, they are also confronted by a
cloud of federal and state legislation,
the result of all of which will be, con-
fessedly, to increase the cost of run
ming n railroad and cut down its
profits. In addition TO these troubles,
and partly in consequence of them,
public confidence is disturbed TO an
extent that makes it increasingly diff
cult for railroads to borrow money TO
make needed improvements.
Railroad officials probably do not
delude themselves with the hope that
the demand for reforms of various
kinds in railway management will
cease, but from the viewpoint of the
public, whose welfare is absolutely
dependent upon the efficiency of the
carriers, wisdom suggests careful
consideration of the question: Can
il reasonably be expected that rail
roads alone among industrial under
talkings, will be able to pay increased
wages, increased prices for the ma
terial they use, improve and extend
their service, and at the same time
reduce the price of their product
transportation?

DANGEROUS BUILDING OPPOSED.


Inspired by the recent collapse OF
concrete buildings throughout the
country and the comments thereon by
the architectural press. the American
Institute of Architects, at its conven-
ton held few days ago at Washing
ton, took steps TO impress upon the
Government the necessity of carrying
on tests on large scale and establish
ing standards of effectiveness and
strength of building materials.
The consensus of opinion among the
leading architects present seemed to
be that in the fireproofing of buildings
il was more desirable to use mater
ial that had acquired its strength and
could be tested as a perfected unit be-
fore its introduction into the struc-
ture, instead of using something that,
like concrete, had actually to be
manufactured i'm the process of con-
stIucting the building and that could
not possibly be tested until the build
ing's completion. Several declare
that under no circumstances would
they use any of the patented systems
of reinforced concrete. 1t was quite
evident that however some of them
might have been inclined heretofore
to dabble in experimental contruc-
tion, recent occurrences had demon
strated to them the ACCESSIBILITY of
adhering to the standard method of
steel frame and hollow fireprofing
tile protection.
An editorial in the American Arehi-
tect, the organ Of the American Insti-
tute OF Architects, that has caused
much comment and serious thought,
and that was written just after the
four consecutive co lapse; OF concrete
buildings that occurred within a
month, says:
Building with concrete, whether
reinforced or not, is an undertaking
not 10 be attempted for salvation
should never be so iterant as when
the temporary wooden supports are
about to pe removed. Ba. the archi-
tect who allows himself TO use rein
forced concrete without having gwen
10 the material and methods such SER
ious study as will justify his belief
that he has actually mastered them,
the architect. that is, who is willing
10 take chances with the lives of
mechanics and the capital of his en-
pioyer should be held entitled to full
membership in the criminal classes.
