INACCURATE: A MAIL
SERVICE TO
OSLO
Ways of the 0lden Day Re.
stored and Teams Are to
be Used.

The inauguration of mail service
between Warren and Oslo occurred
today. During the winter, only oc-
casional mails have been coming to
that town, and action was finally TAX
en- to have the mail transported over
land from Warren to Oslo.
r. w. Frazee, formerly of East
Grand Forks but now of Oslo, says
that the town has been tied up for
over a month. The last train through
there was week ago Saturday, and
that another one was expected through
today.
The people of the town are unaware
as to the doings of the outside world,
as newspapers are as scarce as hens
teeth. With the Inauguration of the
new service Oslo people will again be
put in touch with the outside world.

Years Ago for the West.

The many friends of Jos. Boileau.
son of j. ] Boileau of Crookston and
who left that city but four years ago
for Lathrot, Montana, will be pleased
to know that an investment of $40 IN
mining stock when he first went west
was most fortunate move. The stock
has advanced from ten cents per share
to $3.50 per share and is still soaring
Mr.. Boileau's stock is now worth near
ly $4,000 and he would not think of
accepting that amount for it. A short
time age dividend was declared and
Mr.. Boileau received $500 and hereaf-
ter dividend of three per cent per
month will be distributed.
l. Thus he has received already $3.50
more than he invested and has $4,000
worth of stock besides. which he
would not sell for $4,000. In addition
Mr.. Boileau has position as manag-
er of a planning mill for which he re-
ceives a salary Of 81 500 per year with
house furnished. Take it all around

MONOPOLY PRoFITs.

THE directors OF the Adams Express Com
a pany are preparing for what they term
the largest melon cutting on record by an in
dustral company. This means that the COM
pany has made so much money that it is to be
distributed among the shareholders in enormous
sums After paying high dividends the COM
pany has accumulated surplus Of more than
thirty-one millions, and it intends to distribute
twenty-four millions among its stockholders. The
distribution amounts to $500 for every $Ioo
share, or 200 per cent
Last August there a general movement
among the shareholders of the express companies
to force their directors TO distribute the huge pro-
fits that have been piling up. The American
Express Company and the Wells Fargo Com,
pany had accumulated enormous SURPRISES which
they were holding until the stockholders inter
fered OF course the distribution is fine thing
for the stockholders, but how about the people
who have been plundered for years by the extor-
tionate charges of these monopolistic concerns?
The pirates of old in their raids upon commerce
were not more mercess than are the express
companies which, by their enormous charges and
often ill-regulated service, prey upon the busi-
ness and private interests of the community.
The government some time ago proposed an in
vestigation of the monopolistic methods of the
express companies, but it does not seem to have
progressed far.
The example of the express companies which
have made eXtortionate profits simply because
Of the monopostic character of their business
is ample excuse for the agitation throughout
the country for the government regulation of
these natural monopolistic corporations which are
among the leaders of the insoent forces Of preda-
tory wealth.
1t would be interesting to note also how fare
the employees of these corporations When the
millions are accumulated to such an extent that
two hundred per cent is handed out, might it not
be WELL at least to have a small distribution
among the employees? Yet we fancy if there was
talk of strike among the employees we should
have people teegraphing the president to halt
the strike.

awful thing for the farmers even to think OF
regulating or attempting to regulate the value OF
their commodities.
Why, the clerks and the ministers are not or
ganized to demand better wages and why then
should the farmers desire more money for what
they raise out of the ground. And, then, are not
the farmers Overwhelmingly prosperous Don't
we read Of the banks bulging with the farmers
money and why should they not be content
that is the refrain, That is the one-sided way to
look at it, The farmer should toll along, work
year in and year out, see his crops go to smash
in spell of bad weather, and, then, according
to Wall street reasoning he should be happy and
content to accept without protests any price that
may dwindle down to him after the spectators,
the middle men, and the manipulatorr have raked
off all the profits they possibly can secure. For
there is a great difference in the price OF farm
commodities at the farm and in the hands of the
consumer. Keiffer pears the other year, for in
stance, sold in Delaware at the farm for ten and
fifteen cents basket and they brought nickel
a piece in Maine
The truth Of it is the farmers do not get rich
No one hears Of a wealthy farmer in the senses
that riches are considered in these days. Presi-
dent Roosevelt was right in urging that the farm
ers should look to their own interests and CO.
operate just as other classes Of citizens are CO.
operating for mutual protection and benefit The
trouble is that the financial magnates fear the
farmers some day will stir themselves with the
result that more Of the wealth Of the country will
find its way into the pockets of the producers OF
wealth and not be concentrated in the swollen
and every increasing fortunes OF the few.

Formal complaint has been made to
the department, alleging that the
American Thread Company, is
monopoly in restraint Of trade. ana
asking that It be dissolved through
a prosecution by the Federal govern
ment
About two weeks ago local retail
dealers were informed that the whole
sale price Of thread was advanced
from 55 to 50 cents per dozen spoois.
This has compelled the retailers to
raise the price to their customers, from
5 to cents Der spool.
The dealer who made the complaint
said to-day: 1.-THE excuse for the ac-
vance was the poor crop Of cotton
early in the season. but as the season
has progressed the crops have meas
ured up to the standard, and there
seems to be no well grounded reason
for putting the prices uD."

Some very important incidents oc-
CURED while the President was on his
way 10 oyster Bay. At Wilmington. where
tho train stopped for a few minutes,
somebody asked him about accepting a
nomination for a third term. and an em-
phaic "No" was the reply Then a piano
dealer called for three cheers, which wcie
given, and afterward the President push
ed past two secret service men, reached
over the rails of the car and shook hands
'indiscriminately with persons Of all
classes who crowded about him." There
was one feature Of the usual royal pro-
gress missing; there was no shouting OF
a joke or words of praise to a veteran
Of the civil War who missed the crowning
glory OF Kettle Hm

for p denial Of ambition. a repetition Of
unalterable determination to refuse an
