KILL THE FLIES.

There is to be a greater effort made
in Fargo against the typhoid flies this
year than ever before. The health Of
ficials are showing more interest and
promise to have the alleys and back
yards cleaned up just as soon as the
weather will permit.
More rigid regulations will be en-
forced against the livery stables and
less refuse matter will be permitted
to remain around them as q breeding
ground for flies.
The American Civic association is
preparing to make an active campaign.
1t proposes to show people just what
the fly does and how he does it. Lam
tern slides and moving picture films
have been prepared showing the fly in
action. A fiy-as large as a hen on
the screen--is shown tTampling over
disgusting dirt and filth-and a few
moments later he is in the dining room,
wading over the delicacies. He is
pictured in all stages of development
and activity. The observer, after see
ing the pictures, never again will class
the fly among the things that are too
weak and harmless to merit serious at
tention.
The plan is a common sense one
and 1t is said the motion picture man
ayers all over the country have DEM
onstrated a willingness TO cooperate.
The fly is a real menace. The only
way to cope with it is to arouse public
interest and cause the people to APP
preciate the danger.

The First Trick.

Money loaned to a client on any
note must be paid by check payable to
the order of the client. This proves
that he has received the whole amount
and discounts the allegations often
brought against loan people that they
never paid over the full amount of
the loan.
Every payment made by a client
must be credited on the back OF the
note, as a part of the payment. of the
principal. The client thinks that his
monthly payments represent interest
and commission, but in case the claim
ever has to be contested in the courts
the defense to the charge OF having
charged usurous interest rates upon
the crediting of every payment made
to apply on the principal of the note.
Leave II to Clients Sense of Honor"
'If man falters in the payments at
any time after the amount he has paid
in covers the principal owing with in
terest at the rate of 10 per cent per
annum, do not push the matter too
harshly, leave the VIII lie thing to the
clients sense OF honor. That claim
can never be pushed in justice court. ;
when a client fails in his payments
any time before the full amount named
on the face of the note is paid up, act
firmly, you can at all times collect the
balance due you with legal interest by
garnishment proceedings.
when your contract is challenged
you must say: I credited every cent
received from the man on the back of
the note. Whose business as 1t il he

VALUATION OF
SANTA FE Line.
President Ripley Says Road
is Worth $579,OW,0O0.
NO BEARING ON RATES

Witness in Hearing Before the Inter.
state Commerce Commission Sur
prises the Audience by the Deelara-
ton That the Cost of Railway and
Its capitalization Should Have No
Bearing on Rates.
Chicago, Aug. Silt would cost
$579,OO0,000 to reproduce the Santa
Fe railroad system, according to the
testimony of President E. p. Ripley,
who was again in the witness chair
when the interstate commerce COM
mission rate hearing was resumed in
the federal building.
The hearing is for the purpose OF
determining the justice or otherwise
of the freight advance, which the rail-
roads have scheduled for Nov. 1. On
the evidence adduced the commission
will rule for. or against the advance.
Answering questions put by Attor-
ney Frank Lyon, counsel for the COM
mission, Mr.. Ripley made his state
ment of the cost of reproducing his
road. He added that approximately
$45,OOO,OO0 of the investment is rep
resented by franchises. He stated
that for the year 1910 the road would
pay 100000 for labor in excess of
the sum paid the previous year.
Mr.. Ripley estimated the increase
in operating expenses at $5,200,000 for
the fiscal year 1910 as compared with
1909. Cost of maintenance was during
the same period increased $1,600,000,
he said.
"Out of each dollar received by the
road about Is per cent goes back to
the general public in one way or an
other" said Mr.. Ripley.
Mr.. Lyon took up the problem OF
what constitutes the proper factors In
determining just rate. President
Ripley surprised his hearers when he
declared that in his opinion the cost
of a railroad and it's capitalization

Pueblo, Colo, Aug. 31.-Warning the
people of New Mexico and Arizona
against the danger of having an iron,
clad constitution not easily amended
Colonel Roosevelt took occasion to
speak of the affairs of those new
states here, explaining that he will be
unable on this trip to visit them.
A large crowd met the colonel at
the station, and he was escorted to
the public park. Colonel Roosevelt
said: '@
II want to call attention to the ad-
mirable work done with these great
forest fires. Not only has the forestry
bureau done everything humanity pos
sible, with the preparation given
them, but in fighting fires the men of
the service have shown just the same
abilities of endurance, courage and
entire Indifference to their own lives
as shown by the best fire departments
in our big cities. There is no body Of
public servants of which the public
has a right to feel more proud than
of the men of the forest service.
II wish could go down to New
Mexico and Arizona, but this is the
nearest place to them will reach on
this trip. Many of my friends there
have written asking me to advise
them about their constitutions. I have
not felt familiar enough with the con.
ditiOns to do so. But there is one
point upon which would like to ad.
wise them, and that is to leave the con.
situations easy of amendment at any
time when the people feel that they
should be amended

at the time and my plea is that the
people of the new states should be
left with their hands free so that if at
any time they find that something has
been put into their constitutions which
they did not know was there, or if
they find that something is working
badly, which they believe would work
we'll, they shall have an opportunity
to easily make any change that is
necessary" ~ u; :E .'f'

special train for Osawatomie, Kan.
The trip to Osawatomie will be bro
ken by an hours stop at Pueblo, Colo,
where Mr.. Roosevelt will lay the cor
nerstone of the Young Mems Chris

which Mr.. Roosevelt will proceed to
the Y. M. c. A. building, where he will
deliver a short address.

drive to the Union depot, where his
special train will be in readiness to
continue the journey to Osawatomie.
Numerous stops of five and ten min
utes each are scheduled between Den:
yer and Osawatomie, the principal
towns being Colorado Springs and
Horace, Usage City and Ottawa, Kan.

dedicate as a state park the battle
ground on the outskirts of the town,
where in 1856 John Brown stood off
band of pro-slavery guerrillas.
Mr. Roosevelt will be in OsaWatomie
for twenty-four hours and one of the
most important speeches of his West
ern tour will be delivered there.

White TELLS OF FIRES
Veteran Townsite Man Says Damage in

A. A. White. veteran townsite
man, now in Bemidji, has just re-

the West. He says:
1.-The damage done by the forest
fires cannot be estimated at this
time with any degrees of accuracy.
That there have been some heavy
losses is certain, but the exact ex-
tent is a matter of guess work at
the present time.
Many of the newspaper reports
published, from the very nature of
the disaster. were in large measure
estimates and long distance guess
work. In some places the stories
perhaps did not state the damage as
full and complete as will prove later
to have occurred, but other reports
were without question exaggerated,
as definite and accurate information
cannot be secured until the stricken
districts have been gone over care
fully.
The damage has been severe
enough, both to the government and
to private owners, many of the big
lumber companies having been heavy
