THE STRIKE SITUATION
IN NORTH DAKOTA.

Bismarck Tribune: General Manager
Pennington of the 500 line is quoted
in The Minneapolis Journal of date
Thursday, Dec. 16, as follows:
so far as our road is concerned we
have almost forgotten that there ever
was a switchmen's strike"
The Northern Pacific roads chief of
ficers state practically the same thing.
The following facts about some Bis
marck shipments do not seem to bear
out this statement:
Nov. "a the Milwaukee road loaded
car number 4S705 at Chicago with Bis
marck contents, among others. This
shipment should come over the North
ern Pacific from the Minnesota Trans
fer. Not received yet.
Nov. 30 the Northwestern line at
Chicago accepted shipment for Bis
marck. Not received yet.
Dec. the 500 line at Chicago re-
ceived shipment for Bismarck. Not
here yet.
Dec. 3 the 500 line accepted a ship
ment at Chicago for a city merchant,
and last night 1T had not arrived and
no trace of it APPARENTLY on the map.
Dec 10 the Milwaukee accepted a
shipment of extremely perishable
freight for Bismarck. This comes via
the Northern Pacific in refrigerator car.
Last night it was not here and nothing
heard Of it.
Oh, yes; freights are moving NOR
mally."

GRAIN nocKAoE.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Dec. 2O.-To The
Forum: Believing that the grain
growers. OF our state OF North Dakota
have no idea or conception OF the
amount they are losing each year on
dockage, win say we find on close In
vestigation that the loss each year
amounts to the enormous sum OF ST.
100000 or s6,500.000 for the past FIVE
years.
These screenings are worth from $12
to $50 per ton at the terminal mark
cts. They are worth every dollar as
much where they are grown, for feed
purposes. Do not forget the fact that
you pay the freight on these screen
ings and deliver them to the termin-
als-both mills and elevators-abso-
lutely free OF charge to them. To move
these screenings to terminals would
require more than 5000 cars of thirty
tons capacity each year. The value
Of this product which you have actual
ly given away. would nave built a
courthouse and college at a cost of
about $4,000 each, within every coun-
ty OF your state in the last five years.
We consider the question of dockage
a very grave matter to our grain
growers and for this reason are writ
ing upon this question at this time
hoping that this article will give you
some food for thought along lines that
in the near future will greatly accrue
to your benefit.
Every elevator in the state should
clean every bushel of grain shipped to
terminal markets, thereby saving the
dockage and also for the fact that
dirty grain in a great many cases
lowers the grade, one and sometimes
two grades. AS an illustration of what
can be done by the proper handling Of
country elevator, will give you q
few facts for your earnest considera-
ton.
We will take for consideration an
elevator handling 100 cars of wheat
and flax per season. The value of
the screenings where the grain is
cleaned and the profit to be gained by
the reason of being properly cleaned
on better grades, would be about $3,-
600. This would pay every item of
expense in connection with operating
and maintaining Of the elevator. This
article applies to the grain growers, of
our own great state, and also to our
sister states of South Dakota and Min
nesota.
Another proposition of vital and far
reaching Importance to grain growers.
which we understand will be taken
up at the Tri- State Grain Growers
meeting to be held at Fargo next
month, we wish to say a word. We
believe that every farmer and indie
pendent elevator company of the grain
growing states Of North and South
Dakota and Minnesota, should have at
least one or more OF their representa-
tives in attendance at that meeting,
to consider the subject of terminal ele-
vator, which is to be considered at that
time by the grain growers, and which
we believe most essential to the right
and proper handling Of all of our
grain. II. o. Brown.

FUNDS SHOULD
BE HURRIED in
THREE MORE COUNTIES ADD
SUBSCRIPTIONS TO SILVER
SERVICE FUND.

Grand Forks, N. D., Dec. 20.-The
stress of the Christmas season seems
to be preventing the North Dakota
battleship silver service fund from
coming in as rapidly as the commits
sion would wish. Three counties,
Logan, Mcintosh and Ransom, none OF
which has sent in any subscriptions
before. have come to the front with
liberal checks this week. The little
town of Napoleon alone contributed
$50 through George Laney, the sheriff
OF Logan county. An urgent request
is made to all counties to remit as
fast as possible now. 1T is absolute>
ly necessary to nave the fund we'll in
hand before the order is given finally
for the silver service, and the commits
sion is anxious to give the order as
soon as possible. 1t win take some
months to complete the work. and in
order to have it ready by the early
summer when the great snip is ready
foractive service, it should be given
before the first of the year.
While the people are in the spirit
of giving during the holiday season
they should not forget their patriot
ism. The subscriptions are very small
no one is giving over a dollar and
hardly a person in the state when ap-
preached will begrudge giving it, but
for fund Of this kind II seems hard
to- arouse their DatriotisI1i to the ex-
tent of bringing in or mailing the
amount 1t is pretty custom in the
United States to give each states
namesake a silver service, and the
gift represents something individual
from the state it represents in the
navy Our magnificent prairie state
with its thousands and thousands of
rich acres is represented by the great
est battleship afloat and it seems
right that it's people should appreciate
this fact with the courtesy every other
state in the union has given. The
commission urges the people OF the
state now who nave not contributed.
to do so. Mail or bring in your con-
tmbution to Secretary Brockheff, or
if in another county to the one In
the county in charge Of the fund.

Gas Tank Exploded.

jamestown, N. D., Dec. 2O.-There
was an explosion in the combination
express and baggage car that is carried

spread to all parts OF the interior and
but for the quick work of the express
boys the car and contents would have
been destroyed. However little damage
beyond scorching the wood work re-
suited. The baggage and express that
had been placed in the car ready for
the trip north today all had to be taken
out and placed in another car. az IL

Friends pre- vailed on Garner to remain out of the court room that there would be no clash.
