GOLDEN GRAIN TO
Be OPENED ON
THURSDAY
Plant Will Have Increased Ca
pacity and Full Force Is to
be Employed

Yes, we expect to have the Col
den Grain Biscuit company plant In
operation by Thursday afternoon
said &c. Wilder this morning to the
Evening Times. I'VE will put on just
as large force as we can handle
from the start and constantly increase
until the plant is being operated to its
full capacity. The Golden Grain Bis
cult company will continue to be a
Grand Forks concern and the pros
poets for the future are brighter than
ever BEFORE"
The above statement will indeed be
cheering news for the people of Grand
Forks who have for some time been
figuring on what action would be TAX
en- with relation to the re-opening of
the plant. The announcement that
the plant would be put in operation
at once. sets to rest all talk to the
effect that the plant would go to
either Crookston or Fargo, as has
been said from time to time, but
Grand Forks is still the home of the
one of the best manufacturing indus
tries in the state.
Since the fire which occurred early
this summer, destroying almost the
entire structure, leaving only the
walls standing, the Golden Grain COM
pany operated a plant at Crookston,
this being closed down November 1
with the completion of the reconstruc-
ton of the plant in Grand Forks.
The new plant that will be opened
again tomorrow will have a greatly
increased capacity over that of the
old plant, provisions having been
made for additional floor space
through the construction of an ad-
ditional story by making three floors
were formerly there were but two.
The Golden Grain Biscuit company
will employ large force of people
from the start and is for that reason
alone, one of the city's most valuable
assets. Its product is shipped
throughout North Dakota and north
ern Minnesota, and this fact is an
other reason why Grand Forks is
fortunate in retaining the industry.

GAINING. MUCH
FAVOR
Pla nof Controlling the Water
works System Is Meeting
With Approval

The commission system of control
ing the city waterworks system is re-
ceiving more and more agitation as
the work progresses and the senti-
ment in favor of the proposed plan to
have three commissioners care for the
entire system is becoming the talk
of the city.
BY so doing, the proper care Of the
waterworks system would be we'll
regulated and such an institution and
of the magnitude that the East Grand
Forks system will be, should have all
the attention that it will be posi-
BILE to give.
The question is going the rounds
and most Of those who have spoken
on the subject appear to be in favor
of this plan. The commission system
is not at all new, but has been tried
at many places with the best Of sue
cess where other control has failed.
At Moorhead, near at home, the citi-
zens agree that the waterworks sys-
TEN was not properly taken care of
until the commission was set to work.
Work on the waterworks system is
progressing rapidly and the excava-
ton on DeMers avenue has been made
as far as Third street. Much of the
pipe has been laid for two blocks,
from the bridge on DeMers avenue.
A large force of men are at work and
If weather conditions keep up 1t will
not be long before the pipe line is
completed.

LATEST GOSSIP IN BOSTON
ON NEW UTAH SHELTER

Fridays Boston Financial News tells
what 1t knows about the big smelling
works that are TO be built on the Pine
canyon site of the Utah Consolidated
company. by the Ryan-Cole combination
as follows:
''The arrangement which has finally
been made for the smelling of Utah Con-
solidated ores at the expiration of the
contract now in force with the Garfield
smelter is highly satisfactory to the large
stockholders here. and particularly to
those who have been strenuously oppos-
ing the plan for the erection of a new
smeller by the company.
Complete details of the new plan have
not yet been given out, but it is known
positively that New York, Salt Lake and
Butte friends of the management have
organized a company for the purpose of
erecting a new smelter on the site chosen
by the Utah consolidated and with this
new company contract will be made
which will take care of all the ore the
Utah Consolidated can turn out.
The new company will take over all
the sites and land options recently Sc
cured by the Utah Consolidated, which
means the return to the treasury of a
considerable sum of money which has
been advanced, and in this way the COM
ened.
ut also means that there Will be no
necessity for disturbing the large sur
plus which the Utah Consolidated now
be available for the payment of divi-
dends as heretofore.
Under present conditions the disburse-
ments should be at the rate of s. per an
mum at least, and with a still further
improvement in the metal market which
is assured. they should be even larger.
This is what the large stockholders
here have been fighting for. and they are
highly gratified to learn that the wisdom
of their course has been acknowledged
