The popularity of the motion pic
lures was demonstrated last night,
when a large number of the visitors
in the city, many of them unable to
speak English, took advantage OF the
opportunity to see the big show.
The applause for both the acts and
the pictures showed their ability to
appreciate the favorite American
amusement.
An entire change of bill for tonight
will include the famous Gilmore Sis
tiers in a comedy singing and talking
act, and Anna Bingham, that different
girl, who is one OF the cleVerest sing
ing and dancing soubrettes in vaude-
vile.
With the large exhaust fan and the
two intake fans going, the house was
comfortable, even when crowded, and
the capacity of the fan changes the
air in the entire house each twenty
two minutes, thus giving pure fresh
air even on the hottest nights.

SOUTHER WHOLESALE GROCERS'
ASSOCIATION VIOLATES ANTI

ELIMINATED Competition
INVESTIGATION OF Department
CONDUCTED ON QUIET FOR
SOME TIME.
Many Allegations Set Forth in Corr.
plant - Burdens Suffered BY the
Southerners As Result of Combine
Combine Maintained Too High a
Scale Of Profit.
(By AsSocia ted Presa.)

Washington, June 15.-AnOther &C
ton under the Sherman antitrust law
was started by the department of JUS
stice today when Oliver D. Street,
United States attorney for the north
ern district of Alabama, was instruct
ed to file at Birmingham a petition
against the Southern Wholesale Gro
GERS association, it's officers and men,
bers, alleging the association consti-
tutes a combination and cons piracy
in restraint of trade and asking THAI
it be dissolved.
The suit, it was said at the depart
ment today, is one of the results of
the investigations which the govern
ment for some time has been making
with reference to combinations that
seek to eleminate competition, main
tain high scale of profit and increase
the cost of living. In the opinion
of the officials the investigation in
dictated that an unlawful conspiracy
exists.
There are many allegations set forth
in the bill as to the general scheme
and plan by which the alleged COM
bination sought to prevent the free
flow of competition among the men,
bers thereof and to restrict trade and
commerce.
The department for some time has
received complaints as to the burdens
suffered by the people Of the southern
states because Of the operations OF
this association.

bring on an international quarrel but
do say this, that cannot imagine
how men who glory in the title of
America, who realize the happiness
that Is theirs in having the star
spangled banner over them, could
transfer themselves to any other flag
on earth. And as to finding better
land, they won't find it. They may
find cheaper lands. That is one at
traction, but cheaper land Is not al
ways the best in the end. 1t is much
better to pay little more for Da-
kota land than to pa va little less for
Saskatchewan river land or up near
the Hudson's bay; so hope that the
people of North Dakota will stay here
and do their best to make North Da-
kota known. feel that North Da-
kota and Minnesota are very much
to blame. They have not advertised
themselves. OF course, modesty is a
beautiful virtue, and it is very well
for an individual, but when it comes
to state l think you might tell the
truth and say that we have the very
best territory or region to be found
on the American continent, and one
thing I know is going to happen, and
that is that Bishop Wehrle is going
to devote all his energy to make
North Dakota known throughout the
United States, across the Atlantic,
and bring us lots of people. We are
very glad to see you here tonight,
Bishop Wehrle, and we are more
pleased whenwe know that the fact
that you are here means that tens
of thousands of others will be here
also. You are able to and will con-
tribute to the growth of Bismarck
bishop is somewhat of an asset to
city. In what way, you will ask?
Well, first of ALL it is one more
added to the population. The mis-
take Bishop Wehrle made was that
he did not come here before the cen
sus man came around. But bishop
makes place known. Why, the name
of Bismarck hereafter will appear on
all official books of the Catholic
church in America and in Rome and
everywhere the world over. know
a great many in Europe will ask,
where is Bismarck? One man wrote
to me and asks where on Gods earth
is Bismarck? and some of them were
frightened. They thought it was the
old Iron Chancellor, holding up his
strong, staunch rule. Then a bishop
becomes center. You will have
priests and laymen rushing in to Bis
marck from all parts of this region.
1t will be good thing for the hotels
and a good thing for the livery sta
bles, and so forth. Why, the United
States mail itself would be greatly
benefited and then we bring you a
man who means to be strong active
element in developing Bismarck, in
developing North Dakota. Don't
think for a moment now that bishops
are all the time looking towards the
skies and never thinking of the earth.
Their first duty is the sky, that is
true; but they know very we'll that
they have to stand on earth for some
years and they know very we'll that
their chief duty is to deal with men
and the more prosperous men are,
the more easy it is to make Roadway.
