The Upper Berth,

Duluth Herald: There never was any
reason why the Pullman company
should charge the same price for an
upper berth as it does for a lower ex-
cept that it has monopoly and could
get the money.
There never was any reason, either,
why the Pullman company should pay
enormous cash dividends and then
double its capitalization by stock divi-
dends every little while, except that
1t has a monopoly and could get the
money.
The interests of the public never have
been considered anywhere except by
an occasional traveller who emitted a
harsh growl when he was forced to
climb into an upper berth and to pay
too much for being made distressingly
uncomfortable.
The interstate commerce commission.
after many years, has ruled that it is
unjust and reasonable for the PULL
man company to charge the same price
for upper berths as 1t charges for lower
berths, and it also holds that its rates
are too high.
The public is long suffering, but one
cannot help wondering what ii would
have done had the hotels of the coun-
try adopted the practice of putting
hunks in their rooms. and charging fun
price for sleeping in them, the same for
upper hunks as for lower hunks. But
then the hotel business isn't a mon
opoly
No other evidence than the cash and
stock dividends OF the Pullman COM
pany is needed to prove that Pullman
rates are too high; yet the company
still continues to force the public to
pay the wages OF its porters.

STATE SUPERINTENDENT CALLS
ATTENTION OF NEED or TREE
PLANTING AS WELL AS BEAU
Trying OF GROUNDS ON
APRIL q.

Co. supt. Matte M. Davis thi.
morning sent out to teachers and
members OF school boards In Cass
county, the following letter from the
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton:
To superintendents, teachers and
school officers:
His Excellency, Governor John
Burke, has fixed Friday, April %. as
Arbor day. After all the discussion
Of the past few years relative to the
economic value of trees to say nothing
about the beauty which they give to
the landscape, it would hardly seem
necessary to urge tree planting. How
ever, one who rides over the prairies
Of North Dakota seldom sees a. tree
growing about a rural school. This
ought not to be. Farm hemes are
sheltered, many times hidden from
view by groves. Why not the school
home of your children?
The laws of the state, chapter POI
session laws of 1909 make it the DUTY
OF every district school board to plant
trees and shrubs. Not only are trees
to be planted but school grounds are
to be fenced. I most earnestly urge
upon school boards not only Obedience
to the law but also the wisdom Of
making school grounds attractive
Nothing has greater influence upon
school attendance and interest than
pleasant surroundings. Now is the
time to begin.
We have not issued a special day
programme this year. Last wear we
issued rather elaborate programme
and trust that it may be of use again
this year. want to suggest to the
teachers that an Arbor day programme
is an excellent thing but an Arbor
DAY exercise is better. Let this exer-
else consist Of thoroughly cleaning up
the school yard, making a flower bed or
two planting some climbing vines over
the window, making a screen in front
Of the buildings or arranging a school
garden. Let this be your part with
the children on Arbor day.
Tree planting to be effective. means
that the ground must be thoroughly
subdued and trees planted in masses.
This work belongs to the school board.
not to the teachers and pupils. Trees
must have forest additions to thrive
ana eTfort Is wasted when an isolated
tree or two is torn from it's forest home
and planted on the prairie. Trees will
grow anywhere in this great state:
but they must be given an opportunity
and right conditions.
hope each officer, pupil, teacher and
superintendent will feel that he has a
part to play on this Arbor day. Yours
very truly, w. l. StockweIl.

There is every reason ror believing
that in the near future the Northern
Pacific win rescind its former orders
which cuts Fargo out of the schedule
OF Nos. and 2, the best trains on

will be able to buy tickets through to
