TO RAISE RATES
FOR HOMESEEKERS
EXECUTIVE OFFICIALS DECIDE ON
INCREASE OF SIS FROM ALL
POINTS IN SOUTHWEST.

Chicago, Dec. %. Homeseekers'
rates from Chicago and ST. Louis and
the middle West to the entire South
west and to a portion OF the West
will be slightly increased for the COM
ing year. This, together with the fact
that the western roads will be unable
to agree regarding the cancellation of
reduced rates for 1910. was decided
at a meeting of the executive officials
held yesterday.
The passenger heads OF the vari-
GUS roads met first and were unable
to make any recommendation to the
executive officials. The latter found
it impossible to harmonic contending
interests regarding rates for the COM
ing year. The maximum rates for the
homeseekers, however, have been be-
tween $2.50 and IS, making 1t $s5 from
Chicago, $3.50 from St. Louis, instead
Of $25, and $25 from Kansas City. A
determined effort was made to secure
an increase in the colonists' rates
but this proved Intellectual. It is likely
that the basis for colonists will remain
the same.
From Chicago the colonist rate will
be SO to adj western territory clear to
the Pacific coast; from st. Louis the
rate will be approximately $27.5O, and
from Kansas City approximately $25
The rates into the Northwest have
not been determined. 1t is likely that

Who GETS CREDIT
FOR Discovery?
VENTILATiNG FLuE AT CITY
HALL HAS CAUSED DIssENTIoN
AMONG EMPLOYEES AND oFFIc-
IALs-oUEsTIoR WILL BE SUB
MITTED TO TRIBUNAL.

The city hall is in turmoil. Within
the past twenty four hours a contro-
versy has arisen there which by COM
parison trims the Cook Peary affair
down to insignificance. It's noa
question OF who discovered the riNweN
pole, but one that from a local star4-
point far overshadows that which has
held the attention OF the world for
weeks and which has been made a sub
ject Of study by scientists.
Who discovered the ventilating shafl
in the city hall? Not until that prob
lem has been submitted to the univer-
sity Of Copenhagen or some tribunal OF
acknowledged repute will the war
clouds which now hang about the bust
ness headquarters of the city, be driven
away and affairs reach a normal stage
once more
According TO the best informed, the
honor now lies between Alderman Tt
bert, Chief Sutherland and Janitor
Wells. Attaches Of the various depart
ments with which these men are con-
nected are naturally backing their COL
league.
Sentiment at the city hall this morn
ing showed that Alderman Tibert was
backed by the members of the council
as we'll as every constituent In the Sew
enth ward.
Sutherland has his brigade OF fire
fighters as well as host of personal
friends, who have declared themselves
for the head of the department.
Janitor Wells has convinced the
members of the police force that the
honor belongs to him. And there you
are.
Auditor N. c. Morgan, whose faith in
newspaper men is explicit, suggested
this morning that this momentous
question be submitted to a committee
Of the local press, city hall reporters
preferred. report will be made to
the city council at the regular meeting
in January and II is expected at that
time that some official action win be
taken to place the credit for the dis
covery which has resulted in giving the
Jail the best ventilation that could be
desired. Whatever may be the judg-
ment It is confidently expected that a
riot will be precipitated.

Will Be NO REST
FOR MANY PEOPLE
EVERY HOUSEWIFE IN CITY WILL
WORK JUST A LITTLE BIT
HARDER ON SATURDAY THAN
SHE HAS ON ANY OTHER DAY
OF THE YEAR.

Christmas day, all other things be-
ing equal, will stroll alonL about Sat
urday Unless something happens TO
the calendar, on that day all public
buildings win close. and man, woman
and child will cease from labor, theo-
retically. AS a matter of fact, how
ever, there are many classes OF people
to whom even Christmas means little
in the way of rest. Every housewife
in Fargo will work harder than ever
in making that Christmas dinner just
a little bit more delicious than any
dinner she has yet tried. Every
father will spend the day at home
most of the time amusing the children,
probably by crawling all over the
house as a bear mimic, or showing
Johnny how to run the new toy auto
mohilM Sew and far between, indeed,
ara 60 fortunate mortals whom
ChrhAmnm@ means day OF unalloyed
rest ama comfort.
But &here are number Of classes of
people who will work just the same on
Christmas day as there will labor to-
day. There are the street car con-
ductors and motormen, for instance.
There are the editors of this news
paper, for instance, the railroad men,
the hotel men and the operators OF the
two telephone companies, the North
western and the Tri- State. Team
sters will meet the trains as usual and
the circulation department of The
Forum will work with its customary
vigor. While all stores Of the city
villa DE closed, drug stores and the
different eating places will be open
and If the turkey, mlnce pie and
other delicaces do their duty as ii
ought not 70 be done, the doctors Of
Fargo may be a very busy class. At
the hotels the clerks will not be SO
busy, for Christmas day resembles
Sunday, only more so. In 4act the ho-
tel business for the next few days will
be away below standard. Walters In
all the cafes will have their usual
amount Of work to DO. cooks and
dishwashers will woeA through the
usual agony of three MEALS and cash
iers will push the change across the
counter as on any other day. Police
men and firemen who are always on
duty will work on reduced energy but

things were going full blast. Then,
too, the FIRE department is ever on
the watch for those Christmas fires,
which are bitten caused by careless
ness I'm lighting Christmas trees.
There are certain lines OF business ac-
tivity that will keep open until noon
for the convenience Of the trade. But
these will be few and far between.
