well about 30 feet to make an ex-
animation and IL possible to remove a
rock which was interfering with the

PETE.

Bismarck. N. D., Sept 15.--Dairy
Commissioner Flint has returned from
Marshalltown and Des Moines, Ia,
where he has been in charge of the
North Dakota exhibits at the fairs
held in the two towns mentioned. Mr..
Flint returned in order to be able to
go into consultation with Pres. w Fl,
Stutsman of the railroad commission
in regard to the action to be taken at
st, Paul. Saturday, when the case
of r. =. Cobb & Co, ct al, VS.. North
ern Express Co., comes up for hear
ing.
The case has to do with the pro-
posed reduction on express rates on
milk and cream and in case the re-
duction is ordered, it is stated, 1t will
work a great hardship to the dairy
interests of the state as it will mean
the death of small and cooperative
creameries on account of the fact that
larger centralizers will be able to
come into the state and purchase
cream at high price until competi-
ton is killed and then raise the price.
The same results have followed in
other states where the reduced rates
have been put into effect before the |
people of the communities affected
realized what the results would be. |
Attorney General Miller will, probably |
be at st. Paul Saturday and appear
for the state when the case Games up |
before Commissioner Prouty of the |
interstate commerce commission.

of the horses soon was detected and
ranchers in this vicinity started in pur-

pursuers gained on the thieves to such
an extent that the latter were COM

which were recovered, but thus far the

a warm reception should they again

PLAN FOR SANE FOURTH

FIREWORKS DISPLAY.
Public Meeting and Band Concerts
Also Will Be Features Of
Celebration.

Plans for a safe and sane Fourth of
July celebration received further impetus
this morning at meeting of the joint
committee in Commissioner Rudolph s
office. There is certain to be big cele-
bration in this city next Fourth of July,
although the plans have not yet crystal
lized into such shape that anything like
a program may be announced.
The features which the committee is
thinking of include splendid display
of day fireworks, as well as night pyro-
technics. The members of the committee
recalled this morning that the day fire.
works attracted much attention at the
last Inauguration, and it was evident that
the committee intends to push this fea-
ture into it's full possibilities.
A public meeting, however, was definite
~ decided upon. None of its details was
discussed except that 1T would be an
out-do meeting. if the weather permits.
Otherwise it will be indoors.
There will be plenty of good Oldsfash-
Toned crashing band music to add to the
celebration. This feature of the day al
ready seems assured.
The regatta the lower Potomac
course will be held, IL possible. Perhaps,
also there will be water games and
races in Potomac Park basin.
j. Fred Kelly was elected chairman of
the committee on fireworks.

WILL AWAIT COURTS DECREE.
Dickinson's Attitude Regarding
Texas Oil Company.

A few days ago Thomas L. Hisgen Of
West Sprinfield, Mass, who was the
presidential candidate OF the independence
party in the last campaign, wrote a letter
to Secretary Dickinson, complaining that
the Texas Oil Company, which was sup
plying the War Department with oil. was
nothing more than a subsidiary company
of the Standard Oil Company. AS an ex-
ecutive order had been made prohibiting
the purchase of government supplies from
trusts, Mr.. Hisgen requested the Secre-
tary to terminate the relations with that
company.
Secretary Dickinson has replied that
there are two reasons why this request
cannot be complied with: First. the War
Department has no knowledge that the
Texas company is a trust and can accept
nothing less than the decree of court To
that effect. Second, the order does not
apply to existing contracts made before
it's issue, as was the case with the Texas
contract.
