Writing from Saskatoon, Saskatche

money during the season OF 1906 than

Bank Commissioner NJ. c. Bergh,
in a hourishing condition. Compared
with the last preceding report, made

crease in resources and liabilities of

Fireman Ed Vitek, of Central, Makes
Trip After Sustaining Fracture.
Thinking he had simply sprained his
arm. and not knowing a bone of the
wrist was fractured, Fireman Edward
a. Vitek, of the Iowa Central. made a
part of one trip and all of another,
shoveling coal into the firebox of one
of the big locomotives. Altho he
stuck it out he was pretty nearly eX-
hausted when he reached the end OF
his ram in this city and consulted the
company's surgeon. He was informed
that the large bone of the right arm
was fractured. just above the wrist.
Nitek's accident happened at Rock
we'll, when he was engaged in shaking
down the engine fire. A big clinker
made the task a hard one and finally,
when the clinker gave way, Nitek was
thrown between the cab and the shaker
bar. He struck his arm, and it panied
him, but he did not think that there
was anything worse than a sprain. He
fired the big engine all the way from
Rockwell to Mason City, and from Ma
son City to M~arshalltown, a distance
of about 100 miles.

MILK DEALERS ENTER PROTEST.
File Petition With Council, But Con
sideration Not Yet Taken.

File Petition With Council, But Con-
sideration Not Yet Taken.
The Wholesale and Retail Milk Deal
ers' association of Marshalltown pre-
scented it's petition to the council at
its regular meeting Monday night, but
there was not much interest mani
tested on the part Of the council. In
fact a motion to table was made and
seconded, but Good moved to defer
until the next regular meeting, and
this was carried. Absence from the
city and other business cut down the
attendance Monday night, Mcdonald,
Devine, Jay and McMains all being
absent.
The milk dealers ask hat the new
ordinance be repealed until a state
law is enacted covering the inspec-
ton of milk. If not amended the
dealers would have a clearer interpre-
tation put on some phases, especially
covering butter and cream. The deal
ers also protest against the isolation
of milk COWS from others of their
herds that are not milk producers and
therefore not subject t o inspection.
They claim this will entail a loss to
them, work a hardship, and will be
practically impossible to observe. If
animals, are condemned the city is
asked to reimburse each owner in the
sum of one-half the value of the an
imal so condemned, the value to be de-
termined by three appraisers.
