Quick Service.
Especial to the Bonanza.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-The Pos
tai Telegraph company on August
2, inaugurated new and improved
methods in its general service be-
tween important cities and towns.
This new service is called Special
rush service and has proved a
revelation in the rapidity with which
messages and answers thereto are
exchanged between all points, in
Guiding Pacific coast points. A sys-
TEN of the most rigid supervision Ii
employed from the time a message
is signaled for by call box, or hand
ed in at a Postal office, until it is
delivered to the %addressee. Every
second possible is saved in the var
Ious channels through which a mes
sage passes. The improved methods
is expediting the traffic over the
wires has reduced the time of tran
sit SO that now patrons may re-
ceive from Chicago, Seattle.
Portland, Los Angeles, Boston, st.
Louis, Denver, San Francisco, New
Orleans and other principal points
in less than thirty minutes after
messenger has been slgnalled to take
the message. A maximum schedule
time limit is fixed for the transit of
every message in the operating, de-
livery, clerk and messenger depart
ments. Failure to keep within this
limit is sharply checked up on each
message. Messengers receive extra
pay for the delivery and collection
of every message within the time
allowed for the service. All en-
ployes of the Postal Telegraph serv-
ice from manager to operators,
clerks and messengers are enthusi.
a~stically and efficiently cooperating
in maintaining this fastest tele-
graph service in the world" The
average elapsed time for instance,
from the time a messenger is called
in New York to delivery to address
see in Chicago is 10 minutes. In
cases where the distance from Of
flee to addressee is short, messages
are more frequently delivered in
less than 10 minutes.

school district, in the western part
of the county, growing out of q
former election eliminated last
week in the moving of school
building at night by certain
parties whose identity is not yet
discovered. The school house
was moved the distance of three
miles and was placed in a new
location. The directors will
probably move the building back
and charge the expense up to the
district in case the parties re-
sponsible do not return the school
house themselves. 1t requires
two-thirds vote to change the To-

COMMERCIAL CLUB OF THAT CITY TAKES
ACTION ON PROPOSITION START
Ed IN GRAND FORKS.

The Fargo News this morning
contained the following account of
the action taken by the Com
mercial club of that city yester-
day on the proposition of secur-
ing a better mail service:
"A concerted effort on the part
of Fargo and Grand Forks busi-
ness men will be made in an effort
to prevail upon the Great Nor
thern officials to run the fast
mail train to the coast via these
two cities, instead of over the
present routing via the Brecken-
ridge-Aneta route, in order to
secure quicker mail and express
service. A communication from
the Grand Forks Commercial club
was read yesterday at the monthly
meeting of the local Commercial
club, asking their afiliation in
the movement.
''Quicker through service, and
a reduction in the distance between
Fargo and St. Paul of two miles,
will be arguments advanced by
the local organization in putting
the matter before the railroad
officials. The proposed routing
would bring the trains via Fergus
Falls and would make the distance
to Grand Forks only nine miles
greater, and would do away with
the junction, giving that city a
direct service and a saving of
about four hours in securing the
mails.
insufficient service causes the
alleged congestion of mail coming
to Fargo according to statements
made at the meeting yesterday,
and committee composed of
Secretary Baernstein, A. A.
Trovaaton and w. H. Merritt was
appointed to take the matter up.

SENATOR P. J. McCUmBER VISITS WILL
LlST0N AND ADDRESSES GATHER.
ING OF CITIZENS.

u. S. Senator, p. j. McCum-
ber visited Williston yesterday
and at ten-thirty in the forenoon
he addressed meeting of citizens
held in the Commercial Club
rooms. on the Tariff and other i'm
portant issues. Every word spo-
ken by the senator was to the
point and he showed quite plainly
the reductions made by congress
in the tariff at the special session
held last summer. Senator Nc
Cumber fought for a lower tariff
on lumber, iron and oil and the
figures prove that he succeeded in
getting q considerable reduction.
At the same time he worked for
the protection of the farmer of
the northwest by fighting for the
tariff on wheat and barley and in
this he was again successful. Nc
Cumber has been working for
years for an honest grade, an
honest inspection and an honest
docksge on our grain and owing
to this fact he has incurred the
hispleasure of the leaders of the
boards of trade in the big grain
markets of the United States.
They have even declared that they
would do every thing in their pow
er to secure his defeat at the next
election and to elect a senator
who would leave the grain ques-
ton alone. The senator's remarks
were enthusiastically received by
everyone present and after his
short address he was kept busy
receiving congratulations on the
stand be had taken both on the
tariff and the, grain inspection
question.

sented to hold their wheat for
sale in a pool, the negotiations to
be made by the district officers.
In the published call President
Nelson asks that the local unions
Immediately begin the consider
alton of the following questions:
by what means can we most
easily reduce the cost of market
ing grain and how can farmers
elevators throughout the country
aid in saving the grain growers
the profits which they lose in the
terminal markets?
"What is the quickest and
surest way in which we can get
one standard of grades by which
to grade grain in all parts of the
United States9 How and by
whom should the weighing and
grading of grain be done in local
and terminal markets.
(which is the best and surest
way to secure a correct crop re-
port each year, and for COM
pelling operators of threshing
machines to file reports of the kind
and qualities of grain threshold
"What is the best method
of raising funds to perform
the functions for which the
department has been organized9
What is the best definite basis
of representation in the annual
conventions of the grain growers
department to give every one q
fair vote in all matters9"
In order to get widespread ex-
preston from the grain growing
interests officers of local, county
and state unions are requested to
send the opinions of the various
organizations, and these will be
tabulated and presented to the
convention.
There are about eight hundred
farmers elevators in the country
and if all of these or a large ma
jority of them can be enlisted in
national movement they will
form a considerable factor in the
marketing of the grain. BY the
same policy the officers will at
temp to provide facilities for the
handling of grain at terminals and
at all points between the farm and
the manufacturer.

CONVENTION TO
POOL ELEVATORS
AMERICAN SOCIETY OF EQUITY IS BE-
hind The LARGER SCOPE
OF SELLING.

Hastings, Neb., Oct. H.
Plans for combining the farmers
or cooperating grain elevators
throughout the country for con-
centrated handling of grain in
pools will be proposed at a ns-
tional conference of grain growers
in indianapolis November Is. A
call for the conference was issued
by President Theodore G. Nelson
of the grain growers department
of the American Society of
Equity. 1t is directed especially
to the members of the union in
district No. / and 2, whose head
quarters are at Fargo, N. D., and
Hastings, Neb. 1t is addressed
also to all grain growers regard
less of whether they are affiliated
with the society.
There are approximately two
thousand local unions in the two
districts and each includes from
10 to 225 members. The member
ship is mostly in Wisconsin, Min
nesota, North and South Dakota,
Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma.
but there are scattering local
unions in the middle western
states. District 2 includes only
farmers extensively engaged in
raising winter wheat, but the
other organization covers not
only wheat but corn, barley, oats,
flax and rye. All of the members
of these two unions have signed a
pledge at least on wheat to hold
the 1909 product for sale either
at a fixed price or in general
pool. :... -. y
District 1, in a meeting in Far
90 July 81, fixed a price of 81. Is
for 1909 wheat and members are
said to be shipping wheat now to
the Society;of Equity Exchange in
Minneapolis, to be held in storage
until the price is offered. The
winter wheat union, which has its
headquarters here, has fixed no
price for which the crop is to be
