There has been great amount or thought, time and money devoted to the combination of rubber and fabric into a successful pneumatic tire and develop IL to it's present stage of perfection. The scope of this expenditure is well illus trated by the fact that 1641 patents have been issued in the United States since the first one. May s, 1S47 to say nothing Of the numerous patents on solid and cush- ion tires It Is needless to say that many of these patents have come to naught, and that most of the men embarking In the business have failed to succeed. The development of the rubber tire has been the survival of the Attest.
 Among those who have been success1ul, no one individual has actually produced more for the benefit of the industry than MT. NJ. S. Firestone, founder of the Fire stone Tire and Rubber company. He was among the first to use and aid In the de- yelopment of solid rubber tires for car riages His success in that line and the various Improvements he has brought out fn tires for commercial vehicles is known to the world.

.ELKs FEL|C|TATE
 IN OPEN SESSION
They Had a Regular Elk of a Time
 in K. P Hall Last Night.

All or nearly all of the jolly good fellows of the Elks of this city assem- bled in the K. K. hall for an open session and banquet last night. A large bunch was there and every one of the crowd enjoyed a large time Food, music, with a feast of reason and a flow of soul made everyone who was in attendance glad that he was there. Until late hour the members and their guests listened ot those who by their own profession were so unfortunate as to appear on the list of speakers. Their plight however contributed largely to the pleasure of their hearers
 Musicians were furnished out of pure goodness of heart by the Elk proprietors of the local playhouses. Messrs. Reeves X Echlin. The work of the Airdome orchestra, the solo of the cowboy violinist, Mir. Scherzel. and the vocal solos and duets by Messrs Gar rett and Julius Flierdl were very much appreciated. The Elks were also ap- preciative of the piano numbers of Mir. Garrett who is for short time ap- bearing in this city. Mir. Whitis also appeared and because of his dark color aroused considerable mirth when he was introduced as Mir. White He gave a vocal solo which made a hit not only because of the ability of the sing CT in giving pieces of the type of Tt Aint No Shame To Run When You Am Scared" but also because of the number of clever local hits included in the parody
 Among those who appeared on the toast list and who paid eloquent trib- ute to the good fellowship of the order of Elks were: Postmaster c. P Bullard. George DriscolI, Eugene Brady O'Neill. Frank DeSouza. A. J. Moore, s. L. Easterling, n. Hackett. Vernon Clarke, Frank Connelley, H M. Moss of Prescott. O. c. Parker of Tucson. and J. T. Bristol.
 The music for the occasion was fur nished by the orchestra from the Air dome theater.
 The appointments of the hall were perfect, the decorations being com posed of festoons of pepper boughs between which were strung emblems of the lodge. The banquet was served in royal style by Charlie Gass.

THE GRIEVANCES OF CHI
 CAGOENNES.

When those Chicago feminine pro- and such things make their descent upon congress, such oppressors of women as Speaker Cannon and MT. Payne will understand how the Eng fish parliament felt when it was be- sieged by the suffragettes.
 No doubt these Chicago women are in deadly earnest about this matter, much more so than were the suffra- gettes who were contending for an abstract principle. The Chicago pro testants have something very concrete at heart.
 Women may get along without the have stockings, and if reports are to be believed the stocking of the av- craze Chicago woman is no trifling article of wear. A rate of duty per pound is something to be avoided if possible.
 Thus We see that the women of Chicago have been provided with an issue worth fighting for. We believe that the standpatters, the protection ists and all the rest of that evil crew will be brought to their senses, at least to a sense of justice, once this Chicago grievance is forcibly pre- sented to them. If We must have a tariff, let it be laid on something of which there is not so much used in Chicago.

THE CITY BOND ISSrE-

No reasonable objection has yet been raised to the issuing of refund ing bonds to take up the outstanding city warrants. We do not think there is any objection. unless it be the chronic one entertained by some peo- pie against bond issues in general
 In this case, though, such an ob- jection would not apply. It is not proposed to create an additional in debtedness, but only to replace one on terms more favorable to the city-by reducing the rate of interest from 6 per cent to per cent
 Moreover. the issue will relieve many persons or societies now holding these warrants and will release a volume of money of considerable size in the community.
 There has been an unexplained apathy among voters on this subject. denoted by the light registration. It has, perhaps, been thought by most voters that such a plain proposition could not be defeated, and that there fore there was no use in taking the trouble to register. This is apparently true, but equally as meritorious propositions have failed for the very reason that it was thought they could not fail.
 Those whose names are not on the register by tomorrow night can not aid in saving this bond proposition.

KILLED BY THE SNOW
RoADMAsTER ON THE NORTH.
ERN PACIFIC MEETS DEATH
WHILE eUcklNG SNOW.

Fargo Forum: F. G. Wales of this
city and roadmaster of the Fargo di
vision of the N. p, met his death
Thursday evening about $50 o'clock,
evidently by having the life knock
ed out of him by a large bunch Of
snow thrown from the track by a
snowplow. He was supervising the
work of clearing the tracks on the
Casselton branch,
r. The accident occurred Just this
side of Hastings, where the last drift
was being bucked from a deep cut.
Mr.. Wales was last seen standing
on the north bank of the cut. He
warned his men to get back from the
south bank as the engine, TO-. which
was attached Russell snow pillow,
was making it's last rush at the snow
bank. Just what happened is not
known for after the snow pillow had
hit the drift and things were again
Visible through the whirling snow,
Mr.. Wales was nowhere to be seen
and was lated found under large
pile of snow about fifty feet from
the track and near a snow fence.
Only one foot was protruding from
the mass and it is supposed that the
mass Of snow dislodged and thrown
by the force of the plow had hit him
and carried him that distance.
Workmen Immediately rushed to
his rescue and dug him out. Doctors
were rushed from Kathryn and every
effort made to revive him but with
out avail and it is supposed that he
either suotfcated or had the breath
knocked out Of him by the force Of
the flying particles, the officials be-
lieving the latter to be the cause Of
death. 33.@}

Proposed AMENDMENT
SUGGESTS BILL FOR THE PAR.
TIAL PAYMENT OF TAXES ON
PROPERTY. s4y%

Grand Forks, N. d., Jan. Am
amendment to the existing tax laws
of North Dakota, which will be ap.
preciated by the poor taxpayers, it is
believed, will be introduced at this
session of the legislature by ID. G..
Skulason. The bill was drafted by IT.
Bronson and provides that when
the taxes ON any lot or tract shall ex-
coed, 81, one-half thereof may be
paid on March /, whereupon no. pen
atty shall attach to the one-half 70
raid and thereupon the remaining
one-half may be paid at any time
PRIOR to Nov. 1, following, and no
lenalty shall atatch to such remain
ing one-half. ...
Under the present system taxes be.
come due Dec. and ON March 1 a
penalty is added. The new law is
similar to that of Minnesota. The
following is the bill to be introduc-
ed:
Sec. l. All real estate taxes shall
become due on the first day Of De-
cember in each and every year for
which the tax is levied, and become
delinquent on the first day of March
following, and If unpaid there shall
attach thereto a penalty of three per
cent as soon as the same becomes de-
linquent; also, and the first day Of
April following, an additional penal
ty of three per cent, and on the
first day of June following, an addi-
tional penalty of three per cent, and
on the first day of November follow
ing, a further penalty of five per cent
on the original tax, and the same
shall be charged and collected &C.
cordingly, without being especially;
entered or noted on the tax list, pro-
vided that, when the taxes charged
against any tract or lot exceed one
dollar, one-half thereof may he paid
prior to March l, whereupon no pen
atty may attach to the on-half so
paid; and thereupon the remaining
one-half may be paid at any time
prior to November l following, where
upon the penalty shall attach to
such remaining on-half.
Sec. 2. All acts and parts Of acts
inconsistent herewith are hereby re-
pealed."

The Voice ofthe Press

Democrats in the legislature, and
this plan was only frustrated by the
efforts of b. G. Skulason, who pro-
tested against the movement. IL
seems to us that the insurgents have
long enough combined with the DEM
ocrats and that it is high time that
such combinations were abandoned.
They have been combining so long
with the Democrats that in the late
campaign a Democratic instead OF a
Republican governor was elected.
The Republican members of the leg
islature are overwhelmingly In the
majority and any legislation in the
interests of the state can without
doubt be enacted without democrat
ic assistance. OF course II Demo-
cratic assistance is necessary to pass
needed legislation such assistance
will be gladly received by those who
stand for good government and for
progress, but there should not be any
pre-arranged plan or combination
made between any faction Of the Re-
publican party and the Democrats.
The members of the legislature can
do much by wise and intelligent &C
ton to bridge over the gap that ex-
lists between the two late factions Of
the Republican party. A union with
the Democrats by either of one those
factions will not aid in bringing
about harmony but will only tend to
continue the disunion and discord
which has hitherto existed.

the first assistant is given to Andrew

REPEAL THE DRUGGIST PERMIT.

Edmore Herald-News: Undoubted-

ing session Of the legislature to re-
peal the druggist permit law, and
we hope such may be the case. We
believe that this is one Of the most
vicious laws we have in our state
today, as it gives a certain class a
monopoly on the whiskey business
without paying anything for 1t. II
we are to have a continuance OF the
druggist permit Jaw, then we are In
favor of high license. No, Sir, this
law should be repealed, and then
some stringent law passed to regulate
the shipping and handling of booze
in the various depots throughout the
state.
