HALLOWEEN

SUNDAY WILL GREATLY LES
SEN NUMBER OF GATHERINGS
OF YOUNG PEOPLE.

All Halloween, the last day Of Oc-
tober, observed for six centuries ds
as a time of tradition, superstition
and for the greater part of deep my6-
terry, will probably not be observed so
extensively this year. from the fact
that the date falls on Sunday Cto-
day.. Apart from the usual prankS
of mischievious boys who Keep one

Games of varying degrees Of mil

Games of varying degrees of mirth e
fulness are usually employed at all
Halloween gatherings. Some OF
such games, with which the majority
of young people are for the most part
quite familiar, are ''bObbing' for ap-
pies, fairy boats with halved English
waInuts for bOatsD, cabbage stalks,
cup OF fate, up and out, the looking
glass, etc, many of which are indulg-
ed in to the great delight of all. But,
as stated, the fact that the all-mys-
teriOUs day and night occurs on Sun
day this year, will greatly lessen these
innocent enjOymentS.

as he sees what he believes to be the
interests of his constituents. But he
cannot take the word Of the demo-
cratic or near democratic papers that
the farmers of the state want agri-
cultural duties reduced. The word
must come from the farmers them
selves, and enough of them must so
signify that he will understand it to
be the will of the majority of the
farmers of the whole state. We
would suggest that the democratic
and near democratic papers enlist
their farmer subscribers in united
movement for the abolishing of the
tariff on wheat and barley as start
er. Let them circulate petitions ask
ing congress to reduce or take off
altogether tle duty on agricultural
products in the interest of general
tariff reduction and for the benefit
of the whole people. If there is so
much sentiment in the state in favor
of reducing the tariff all along the
line, the democratic and near demo-
cratic papers ought to be able to dis
cover it.

Co. A met the first defeat of the

Washburn and stacked up against the
fast aggregation from that town.
One of the features of the game was
the pitching of Larson for the Bis

during the game.
One of the other features of the
game was the large number of errors
made by the Capital City boys. Wash
burn did not earn one of the eleven
runs they succeeded in getting across
the home plate.
Yackey and Richards did the fine
work in the points for the Washburn-
ties, while Larson and Edwards off,

EXPLOSION DOES MUCH. :.
DAMAGE: 70 HOSPITAL \ / !,
TWO MEN HAVE NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DEATH ON MONDAY
MORNING.
Heating Plant Let Go and st. Alexus
Hospital Suffers Damage to the
Amount Of $1,000.

An explosion in the basement of the
st. Alexius hospital Monday morning
did about $4,000 damage and was near.
ly the cause of the death of two men.
H. c. Meacham' was doing some
work in the basement of the hospital
in connection with putting in new
boiler and while he was there someone
turned one of the valves in the heating
plant in such a manner that steam
was generated in the boiler and when
the pressure became too great a ter
rible explosion followed.
Mr.. Meacham was blown a distance
CT about fourteen feet and it was
while cropping about in the steam
darkened room in an endeavor to fipd
an exit that he received the injuries
which will keep him confined to the
house for a couple of weeks. He was
severely scalded about the head and
limbs and it is a wonder that he es-
capped with his life. Frank thinner
man, the other man who was in the
basement Of the building at the time,
was also seriously injured but not so
badly as Mr.. Meacham.
All of the windows in the basement
of the building were blown out, the
building itself was wrecked to a con-
siderable extent and the boiler and
all the main pipes connected with the
heating plant were entirely wrecked.
One Of the sisters had narrow es-
cape as she was just about to enter
the boiler room at the time of the
explosion and the force of it knocked
her from her feet.
It Is estimated that the damage will
reach at least 5000 and there is no
insurance. :, -.

If the case of a committee of the
Commercial club of Valley City is
brought to restrain the Northern
Pacific road from operating it's pas
senger trains on the high line, some
distance from the business center OF
the city, the courts will have oppor-
tunity to hand down some interest
ing law with relation TO the relative
rights of a railroad company to oper-
ate it's trains to tle best advantage,
and of city corporation to demand
that they be operated to what is be-
lieved to be the best advantage of the
city. The high line north of Valley
City was built at a considerable ex-
pense to avoid the grade into and out
OF Valley City, which has necessita:-
ed the maintenance and operation OF
"pusher" engines in times past. The
trains will run over the new line on
a measurably low grade and without
pushers. 1t is natural that some at
least of the commercial interests in
Valley City would prefer the running
of the passenger trains through the
city as of old, since the new order of
things would make a considerable
change in the convenience of passen-
ger traffic and disturb the existing
order of things to which people have
become accustomed. The Question
involved will be as to the obligation
that the law places upon common
carrier with respect to the city cor
poration through which it passes. So
far as we know, the case is unique
in the, history Of this state, and we
do not know that there is any express
governing it.

Taking Iowa's yield in 1908 and the

DAT RAISING TO BE
MADE TO PAY.

In the current number the Techin-
cal World offers a very interesting
article on the ''loss in raising oats"
Statistics are published to show
first what an enormous wealth is
contained in the oats grown in one
season in tne united States and yet
this crop of the value of over 1884,
100000 is shown to have been grown
at loss to the producers. The
rapid increase in the demand for this
cereal in the various breakfast food
preparations has, however, enhanc-
ed the price of oats and the price of
so to so cents a bushel now realized
may, like dollar wheat, have csshe to
stay. The author of the article in
question maintains that for the first
time in the history of agriculture,
growing oats is to be made profitable
and this in face of the fact that the
oats crops in the United States in the
past eight years have been sufficient
to pay the interest and ,non-interest
bearing debt of the nation twice over.
The average American partaking
of his matutinal porridge has never
realized that the American farmer
has raised the oats which forms the
bulk of the breakfast foods at a
financial loss. But such has been the
case. Last year Iowa planted 4,2OO,-
600 acres to oats and reaped a crop
Of 1O8,. bushels of an aggregate
farm value of $41,3s2, 900; while ILL
nois raised 101, 675, 600 bushels OF an
aggregate farm value Of al, 687 900.
These immense totals would seem to
indicate profit. Give one years oats
crop of Iowa and Illinois to- a rail-
road president and he could add 1856
sleeping cars or 1852 day coaches
to the rolling stock of his railroad.
OR give to Uncle Sam the $334,568,-
900 secured from the sale of oats
raised on the $4,000, 900 acres planted
to the grain throughout all the Unit
ed States and he could 3add to his
naval strength 125 battleships Of the
size and armament Of the Illinois,
so that no other nation on the globe
would have even look in when it
came to war. Take the money earn
ed by the nations Gals crop for the
past eight years and the American
farmer could lay on the table dol
lar for every dollar every railroad
president in America, Africa, Asia
and Australia could lay down for
every receipt from every source of
revenue. -,
But these big things do not tell
the tale. Twenty-six farmers in the
oats belt, Intercepted as to the cost
of raising oats, reported the average
aynonco nor ocro fo11orc.
