BARN and HORSES AND GRAIN
BURN UP.

Lightning set fire to A. H.
Browns barn and granary at Mar
mon last Friday night and the re-
suit was a three thousand dollar
loss. The men working on the
place saw the fire shortly after it
started but only succeeded in get
ting out two of the six horses
that were in the barn before the
flames drove them back. Be
sides the four horses there were
something like 1900 bushels of
wheat and ten or fifteen tons of
hay burned. There was no insur-
ance on horses, grain or barn.

DYING FATHER

Devils Lake, N. D., Sept. g.
If Ed G. Ian or Lau, aged 10
years, is in this section of North
Dakota, this is to notify him that
his father at Des Moines, Iowa, is
lying on his death bed and is con-
stantly calling for his son. Ian
was last heard from at Lakota,
but letter addressed to him at
that place was returned uncalled
for. If anyone has knowledge of
the whereabouts of Ian they will
doubtless confer a favor upon a
distressed family by informing
him of the call to his fathers bed

ALEX M'KENZIE
OUT OF POLITICS

LAST FALL.

Minneapolis Tribune:-Alexan-
der Mckenzie, for years the lead
er of North Dakota politics, last
night at the Merchants hotel in
St. Paul, announced his retire.

political work the North Dakota

The announcement of his retire.
ment from politics was received
skeptically, but he insists that he
is through for the rest of his life.
why should l stay in the
game" said Mr.. Mckenzie. Il
have been in it for forty years
and have never wanted an office in
my life. l have worked for my
friends and for the party. ~ There

JOHNSON STILL :.
The BEST MAN
BIG NEGRO GETS NEWSPAPER" DE-
ClS0N AT The END OF TEN
ROUND BATTLE.

San Francisco, Sept. 9-In a
contest, unique in local prize
fight annals, Jack johnson was
credited with a newspaper" de-
cision over Al. Kaufman at the
end of ten rounds of fighting to-
day at Coffroth's arena. Accord
ing to the articles of agreement,
if both men were on their feet
when the ten rounds had been
fought, no decision was to be CIV
en-. Referee Eddie Smith, how
ever, stated that johnson was en-
titled to verdict.
johnson employed tantalizing
lefts and forceful right uppercuts
with such frequency that Kauf-
man was fairly bewildered. Early
in the contest his face began to
show signs of Johnson's punching
and IN the third round a we'll d.
rected punch started the blood
flowing from Kaufman's face.
johnson appeared to be holding
himself in reserve and it took
constant jibing by the spectators
and an occasional punch from the
blacksmith to start him going.
When he did let go he played
with Kaufman as if the latter
were child.
In the ninth round Kaufman
found Johnson's stomach with a
vicious right swing. 1t was kauf-
mans best blow and convinced the
negro that he had better be care
full ~ ar :
The contest proved, fight ex-
perts say, chat Kaufman should
shun short round affairs. He ap-
peared to gain strength as the bat
tie progressed, while johnson,
who apparently had trained none
too we'll, began to show signs of
weakening.

FARGO AFTER AN
EARLY DECISION
COMMERCIAL CLUB HOPES TO SEE
GOAL RATE CASE PUSHED FOR.
WARD RAPIDLY. "

Fargo, ND, Sept. 12-The need
of stronger cooperation on the,
part of the Commercial clubs of
North Dakota was brought out,
yesterday afternoon at the meet
ing of the Fargo Commercial club,
when a resolution was before the.
club, concerning the coal rate.
cases which are now before the
United States supreme court.
The meeting was one of the
most important that has been
held by the club this year. It,
did not last long but there were
several matters of more than pass
ing interest taken up and decided.
One of the most important of
these came up when the following
resolution was introduced by H.
Bachelor, q member of the club
COAL RATE CASE RESOLUTION.
''Whereas the United States ge-
illogical survey states that there
are some 5O0,OOO,0 900, 900 tons of
coal laying under the lands of
North Dakota, and whereas, there
is an abundance of raw material
in this state in the shape of flax
straw, wool, potters' clay, suitable
for the manufacture of brick, tile,
sewer pipe and insulating porce-
lain, and, whereas by virtue of
the coal and raw materials of this
state it should occupy a leading
position as a manufacturing state,
and, whereas, all that is necessary
to give q great impulse to the de-
velopment of great industrial en-
terprise, is cheap fuel, and, where
as, all that is necessary to secure
cheap fuel in this state is a reas-
enable rate for the transportation
of coal, and, whereas, the legisla-
ture of the state of North Dakota
at it's 1907 session enacted chapter
81, known as the maximum coal
rate law, and whereas, that law
establishes the same tariff for the
transportation of coal as is now
provided by law in the state of
Illinois, and whereas, we believe
that the rate established by the.
legislature of the state of North
Dakota for the maximum coal
rate to be charged by the railroads
for the transportation of coal
within said state to be reasonable
and just, and whereas the railroads
have refused to obey the said
maximum coal rates and have ta-
ken it to the courts, claiming that;
the said law is con6scatory, and
the supreme court of North Da-
kota has unanimously adjudged
that the law is valid and whereas
the railroads have removed the
said case to the United States su-
preme court claiming that they
will be ruined if said law is en-
forced, now, therefore, be it re-
solved that we, the Commercial
club of the city of Fargo, do here
by urge the attorney general of
North Dakota to do his utmost to,
present the case of the state of
North Dakota in the most favora--
ble light possible that the court.
may be made to see the justice of
the cause of the people and be it
further resolved that we aid the
said attorney general in every way
possible"

HARTMAN DIED
ON THURSDAY LAST
GREAT RAILROAD MAGNA1E DIED Al
l:3o O'CLOCK, SEPT. 9, AFTER
LONG ILLNESS.

New York, Sept. 1O-With the
passing of E. H. Hartman from
the realm of business where he
had long occupied dominant po-
sition, achieved by remarkable ge-
MUS and intense energy, the at
tention of the hosts of his friends
and admirers turned today to the
stricken family in the silent house
on Tower hill at Arden.
The magnificent courage with
which Mr.. Hartman faced the
unconquerable enemy was charac-
teristic of the man and stirred the
emotions, not only of those who
had been close to the railroad fin
ancier, but elected tributes from
men who had been his opponents
in many business fray. Almost
to the very last, the mind of the
man who had never given up in
defeat, continued actively direct
ing the great business he had
built up. His last instructions
, were delivered to a subordinate
only few hours before his death.
A constant vigil had. been main
tained at the Hartman home all
during the night preceding his
death, for the members of his
family realized that only the stern
will power of the man, sustained
him in the unequal fight he was
waglng. The cricis was antici-
pated at any moment but ,Harri-
mans cheerful optimism, abund-
antly expressed when he returned
from Europe to take as he said,
''the after cure" gave hope that
ha might yet survive the critical
sage. Ex-Judge Robert S. Lo-
vott, vice president of the Union
Pacific and one of Harriman's
closest associates, remained at the
house all Wednesday night. Al
though the patients vitality was
at a low stage and he was suffer-
ing from high fever he revived
yesterday morning and endeavor-
ed to cheer his despairing wife
aud children.
''Don't worry, my dear,'' he
said to his daughter, Miss Mary
Hartman, II am going to get
WE'LL"
Some hours later it became ap-
parent that the end of the brilli-
ant career was approaching and
the members of Mr.. Harriman's
family we're summoned to the bed
side. There, according to one of
those present, the scene enacted
was most affecting as the husband
and father babe his wife and chill
dren good bye. With unfaltering
courage but with ebbing strength
he clasped the hands of all for the
last time embracing them, spoke
words of cheer to his wife and
\ daughters, and of advice to his
sons. Roland, the youngest son,
who had been his fathers constant
companion during his illness,
shaking with sobs as his father
clasped him in his arms and whis-
pered farewell words. s
Harriman's death occurred at
1880 p. M, but the fact was not
announced until after the close of
the stock market. About 2 O'Clock
Wall street heard rumors that the
financier was dead, but the state
ment to that effect would not be
given out until after the stock ex-
change session ended. A stele-
phone call to the Hartman home
at 1:45 brought a positive denial
of the report of Harriman's death.

IS BEING GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT BY PRESIDENT GoMPERs
 AND ASSOCIATES.
Chicago Federation of Labor Has De. Decided to Reinstate the Local
 Woodworkers Union.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 20.-For the protection of workers who handle machinery. the installation of modern safety devices that will render acci- dents practically impossible is one of the problems for the working men of the country, now being worked out by President Gompers and his asso- ciates in the executive council of the American Federation of Labor. The council today agreed to make a thor ough study of the question and 1t is not improbable that the Toronto con- vention next month will be urged to take definite steps to this end.
 Action on the strike situation at McKees Rocks, Pa, which continues to be menacing, was deferred, the council deciding to report the whole m tier to the next convention and that body will determine the question of what further assistance snail be extended to fhe strikers
 The automobile drivers controversy was also considered and Mr. GomDers was directed to continue his efforts to bring about settlement as to the relative claims of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the In- ternational Association of Machinists.
 The Chicago Federation of Labor, it was decided. must reinstate the local union of the Analgamated Union Of Woodworkers, which was unseatcd ss a resut4 of dispw'e and the mea. it's of the controversy and the ques- ton of jurisdiction will be decided by the international unions.
 Resolutions were adopted urging na- tional legislation for the establish ment of the postal savings banks and a parcels post
