COMMISSION WILL MEET
IN BEM|DJ| ON JULY I
Railroad and Warehouse Commission
Will Consider Raising Rates on
Hauling Of PuIpwood.

The Minnesota State Railroad &
Warehouse Commission, through its
secretary, A. C. Clausen, has issued
the following notice of a meeting of
the commission to be held in this
city Tuesday, July 7:
st. Paul, June 10, 1908.
To Whom It May Concern:
The hearing in the matter of the
application Of the Minnesota &
International Railway company to
increase its rates on pulpwood to the
basis of its cordwood rates has been
fixed to take place at Hotel Mark
ham, Bemidji, Minnesota, on Tues
day, July I, 1908 at 2 o'clock, at
which all interested parties can be
heard.
Please be governed accordingly.
by The Commission,
A. Clausen, Secretary"
Several months ago the M. & I.
railway company reque sted of the
commission that a special hearing
be given on application to raise the
rates on pulpwood. Through the
medium of the Bemidji Pioneer this
notice was given wide circulation
and many men, interested in pulp
wood had arranged to attend the
hearing, but for some reason the
railroad company requested post
ponement of the meeting at that
time, which request was granted by
the commission.
Undoubtedly there will be a large
crowd of pulpwood men present at
the meeting to be held here July Z.
