Members OF the National Export Lum-

O'Clock In the governors room at the
Virginia Club. II Is probable that the

At the same time there Is n great deal
OF business connected with the associa-
ton to be transacted. Not only must the
officers for the ensuing year be elected.
but the multifarious affairs connected with
lumber. export charges, railroad rates.

will be given an oyster roast at Cape
Henry, commencing at noon. They will
make their headquarters at the Hotel

tonight
In all. about twenty-five members are
expected to attend. There are not more
than fifty in the entire association. In
their hands. however, lies the manage

Nearly 5000 barrels OF kale and spinach
n day are being shipped by the Western

ton, and the supply is rarely in excess
of the demand. This, of course makes
for the best prices obtainable

.C0[LUS|ON UNL|K'LY
Senator McCumber Believes
President Should Cancel
Recent Executive Order.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, D. c., Feb. 11.-Sena-
tor McCumber of North Dakota has
talked with President Roosevelt about
the executive order holding up GER
tain land entries in the west, awaiting
investigation. It has been argued that
the president should cancel the order
so far as it applies strictly to agri-
cultural lands, where it is asserted
there could be little or no collusion
or motive for fraud. Senator McCum-
ber said there were probably five hun
dred cases in his state where home
steaders have made entries but are
unable to make final proof because
of the order holding up entries. The
senator asked the president to permit
receivers of public lands to issue re-
ceipts, thereby completing transac-
tions and permitting homesteaders to
begin improvements.

Bismarck, Feb. 1.-THE house on
Saturday reminded one of the sum
shine which always follows the storm
when it was contrasted with the scenes
of the day before. Then there was the
roarings of the thunder, first the low
distant murmurings which fall almost
pleasantly on the ear, and the crash
and roar which indicate that the storm
is on in all it's fury. There was, too,
the flashings Of the lightnings and
the groanings Of the elements at war.
Saturday all was calm and serene and
the sunshine was everywhere. The
battles of the past were forgotten in
the doings Of the present and all was
harmony and good fellowship.
The several standing committees
made a number of reports on bills,
among which were H. B. No. 100, the
bill introduced by Mr.. Pugh of Grand
Forks county providing for the divis-
ion of the county tax for the use of
fair associations where there are more
than one association in county, and
it was recommended for indefinite
postponement. The same fate was
shared by the Rose bill officially
known as H. B. 166 providing for
repeal of the mechanics lien laws. s.
B. No. and H. B. No. 1872 were
recommended for passage.
The speaker in the presence of the
house signed the concurrent resolu-
ton in reference to grain and grain
grading. The senate reported the
passage with an additional member

solution creating special joint COM
mittee to consider all demurrage bills

Washington, D. c., Feb. IL
Senator Hansbrough in addressing the
senate last week said in speak

alcohol: ION the 18th of De-

was referred to the committee on
finance, intended to amend the exist
ing law with respect to the manufact-
uring and denaturing of alcohol. 1t is
my purpose this morning to introduce
another bill on the subject, but before
doing so desire to address the senate
for few moments.
"The bill to which l refer contains
the following provision:
THAT for the convenience of per-
sons engaged in the distillation of al
cohol in quantities that would not

"a few weeks later, Mr.. President,

subject. Those bills were referred
to the committee on Ways and Means,

MURDER MYSTERY SOLVED.
Famous Crime in Germany Solved
After Passing of Months.

Essen, Germany, Feb. 1.-THE mys-
terry of the murder of Miss Madelaine
Lake, daughter of British army off,
Ger, whose mutilated body was found
at dusk Oct. l, last in the city park,
has been solved. Edward Lane, 20
years old, surrendered himself at the
police station here Saturday charging
himself with being the murderer of
Miss Lake. He informed the police
that he formerly was an employe of
the Rhine West Phalian coal syndicate
and fled to Belgium after the murder.
His conscience tormenting him and
being without any money, Land re-
turned to Essen, determined to con-
fess and take the punishment for his
crime.

PembiBa County With 14s Pupils Re.
ceives $500 While Grand Forks
With sic Pupils Gets But s2,4oo and
Ramsey With III Pupils Receives
But si,soo-The proposed Measure.

In some parts OF the state there Is
evidenced a misunderstanding of the
bill proposed by the Grand Forks
board Of education for more fair and
equitable distribution of state aid to
the schools. Under present conditions
Fargo. Valley City, Jamestown, Grand
Forks; Bismarck, Grafton, Devils
Lake, Minot and others of the larger
high schools-each with high school
enrollments Of more than one hun
dred-receive the same amount from
! ehe state apportionment fund, namely
$1,000 for two years. Such distri-
button on the face of it seems unfair.
Then, again, glance down the table
showing the present distribution of
the state high school aid by counties
for the two years ending June 1907,
discloses an apparent gross unfair
ness. For instance, Pembina county
with her enrolment Of 14S receives
$4,000 while Ramsey with Ill pupils
(almost as large) receives but $1,000.
Again Grand Forks county with an
enrolment of 319 or nearly trip pie that
of Pembina gets $2,4o0 or only one half
as much as Rembina.
To substantiate the above statements
the table Of counties is given, this
table showing the distribution for the
two years as above outlined.
