products.
Mr. Hill said that his attention was
attracted to the situation last summer
and on Investigation he found that
the cost to his road Of handling the.
lumber traffic from the Northwest was
far greater than the revenue gained
from it. The difficulty was, in his
judgment. that the cars had to be
hauled by the railroads from Eastern
points to Oregon and Washington
practically empty. The haul of sub
stantially 1000 miles cost the lines
about $3.50, while the revenue per car
from the Northwest to the points of
destination Of the lumber products
was about $780, This produced a loss
of $50 per car. This situation was
so serious, from the viewpoint of the
railway lines, that it was necessary to
take some action that would remedy
it, 1t was decided to increase the
rates on lumber and lumber products,
not with any idea of prohibiting the
traffic in lumber from the Northwest,
but merely with the idea of protecting
the interests of the railway lines.
From his point of view it manifestly
was impossible for the carriers to haul
the lumber traffic from the Northwest
to points of destination in the East
at the former rates and to obtain a
fair and equitable rate on lumber was
the only reason the railroads had for
making an advance in their tariffs.

lots which have not been plated,
which is twenty-five dollars for each
lot sold or offered for sale, with an
additional penalty of not less than
ten dollars per month of failure to
put the plat on record, dating from
the first sale. The action will be
taken up at once by County Attorney
Teitsworth.

Protecting Peoples Savings"
James Speyer, the banker, the first
speaker. favored an elastic currency
based on the gold standard. Mr.
Speyer then introduced Andrew Car
negie, who said in part:
mo system Of currency will enable
us to escape seasons of depression,
failures and losses. Prosperity is
bound to stretch the lines beyond the
breaking point and dull times are
needed to restore them; and just in
proportion as the percentage Of the
total Of legitimate business grows
smaller to that of speculation and
gambling upon margins financial dis
asters will increase in number and
severity. Letsus therefore dismiss all
panaceas for panics such as we have
just experienced and which were due
several years ago, but delayed by an
uneQualed succession OF good crops
and strong demand for our crops
abroad. The point that demands at
tention is that our banking system is
unlike that of other countries. I agree
thoroughly with those, however, who
believe that the present is no time to
urge the complete change we need

French Officers Discuss Trip of Battle
ship Fleet.
Paris, Dec. 17.-French naval Off
GERS are intensely interested in the
cruise of the American battleship
squadron to the Pacific. AS profess
sional feat they regard it to be sur
rounded by almost insurmountable diff
f1culties. Captain Faber of the gem
eral staff said:
"The financial resources of America
make the problem of coaling the fleet
comparatively easy, but there are three
great difficulties to keep so
many units together; second, to pro-
vision and repair the ships in the
event Of an accident, and, third, the
navigation of the Straits of Magellan
by such an armada If the cruise is
successfully accomplished and if at its
end, as the programme contemplates,
the vessels are able to engage in tar
get practice, thus demonstrating their
readiness to meet hostile fleet the
whole naval world will take off it's
hat in admiration. This will be a
demonstration of the efficiency of the
crews and the ships of the American
navy which will make even the Eng.
lish navy look to it's laurels.''

st. Paul, Dec. 17.-Disbarme is to
be the punishment of Francis B. Hart,
Minneapolis attorney, for his recent
attack on the supreme court Of Min
nesota, if the recommendation Of the
State Bar association is adopted
A joint meeting of the board of gov.
errors and ethics committee was held
at the ofide Of How, Butler & Mitchell
in this city, when the matter was dis
cussed. Subsequently the board Of
governors and the ethics committee
held separate meetings, when each or
ganization adopted resolutions that
were later adopted by the joint body.
The resolutions recite that the at
tack by Mr.. Hart on the state SUI
preme court was unwarranted and un-
justifable and that it should receive
unqualified condemnation.
The Bar association also took action
providing that counsel be appointed to
represent the association in the dis
barment proceedings.
The resolution adopted by the ethics
committee orders that charges be pre-
ferred against Mr. Hart before the
board Of governors in order that his
expulsion be brought about.

Ban Removed from Beaver and Otter.

u
Beaver and otter have been taken
from the list of prohibited fur-bear-
ing animals in Minnesota, and may
now be trapped or shot at any time.
Whether or not, is not known, but it
is nevertheless true. In amending
the law of 1905, to lengthen the
closed season for certain fur-bearing
animals, the mention of otter
and beaver was wholly omitted, the
amended law applying only to musk
rat and mink. Trappers will prob
ably take advantage of this omission
during the winter and ply their
trade in the northern part of the
state, where beaver and otter are
reported unusually plentiful.
Crookston Journal.
The. above is certainly news to
the writer hereof, and it is doubt
full if anyone hereabouts has known
of this removing of the ban on
beaver and otter. But the legisla-
ture did some peculiar things to the
game laws.
