GET one over ON
EMIL DESCHENE
WELL KNOWN FURNITURE
SALESMAN FINDS THAT LIFE Is
SCARCELY WORTH LIVING Az
TER AN EXPERIENCE HE HAD
AT VALLEY CITY HOTEL.

The following was sent to The Forum
from Valley City by travelling sales.
man who vouches for its truth:
Monday night was made hideous FOL
a while at the Rudolph hotel, Valley
City. for the sleeping guests OF the
hosiery when Emil Deschene, one OF
North Dakotas crack furniture sale
men discovered that room 5 in which
he was sleeping was haunted.
Deschene had returned to his room
after hard days work and a pleasant
evenings visit, and by midnight all
was quiet. His slum'bers were inter-
rupted by mysterious rustling noise
accompanied by crawling sensation
Immediately under the lower sheet of
his bed. At first he overlooked the in
terruption but when 1t occurred again
with Mortified scream he bounded out
Of bed and made for the electric light
switch.
He was cautiously crawling toward
the bed with the water pitcher poised
ready to annihilate the bold, bad man
he expected to find under the bed, when
the writing desk deliberately slid across
the floor toward him.
"Oh, my. Gawd," yelled the affrighted
Deschene as he cleared the door with
one record breaking leap. Dashing
down the hall to the next room oc-
cupied by c. 3. Dotson, Deschene ham
mered on the door for admission. dot,
Dot, oh Dot, open the door quick. Let
me in. Let me in quick"
But Dot did not respond. Dressed
only In his pajamas, Deschene's Unborn
modesty resisted his first impulse to
dash down stairs and call the police.
Instead he sheaked carefully back to
his own door, trembling in every limb,
and reaching inside for the telephone
receiver, he tore the instrument from
the wall and rang the night clerk.
Oscar, oh Oscar. Come I'D here
quick. Hurry up" Three steps, at O.
bound, Oscar Larson, night clerk, hur-
ried UP the stair to find .Deschene lean
ing against the wall of the corridor
white as a ghost and his hair standing
on end. d. ~ -..-.
Oscar" family walled Deschene
there is something wrong with nv
room. It is haunted. Oh, for Gawd's
sake don't go in" Oscar overcome his
own fear and entered the room. He
peered under the sheet and pushed the
table back in its place again.
Good night, Deschene," he said.
Here is the string which was under
your sheet and here is the other one
to the leg Of the table. You
viii see, upon examination, that they
both run under this door into Dots
room. Good night" and Oscar went
back downstairs.
The job was put UP while Deschene
was out calling. Deschene jumps at
the drop of pin now. and has been
joshed SO much that the he acts as if
life were scarcely worth living.

Want NATIONAL
PARK AT NIAGARA

Washington, Jan. 29.-Anothre al.
truistic campaign Is about to be launch
ed from Washington. General head
quarters have been established here
in the Union Trust building by the
American Civic association, and Rich
ard B. Watrous, it's secretary, who has
been placed in charge, win urge on
congress the enactment of legislation
Of much public interest. One of the
things aimed at is the creation of q
national park at Niagara Falls.
President Taft put the seal Of his
approval on the policie9 Of the Amer
lean Civic association by becoming a
member Of 1t when he was secretary of
war. The aims of the association may.
therefore, be considered In a. sense to
be part of the Taft policies" as they
relate to the Improvement Of commun-
ity life and the preservation and deyel-
opment of national scenic beauty.
Thousands of good citizens in all
parts of the United States have united
in this concerted move.nc t to urge on
congress the enactment of legislation
which will eventually result in making
both town and country more desirable
places to live in.
The cultivation of highe ideals of
civic life and beauty; the promotion
or city, town and neighborhood i'm
provement; the preservation and devel-
opment OF landscapes. and the ad-
vancement of outdoor, art, are among
the specific objects which the associa-
ton hopes to attain.
It will be recalled that the passage of
the Burton bill, limiting the amount
of water which may be taken from the
Niagara river for commercial purposes,
was largel5 due to the efforts OF the
American Civic association. The OBJ
ject of the bill, obviously, was to pre-
vent permanent injury to Niagara
Falls, the majesty and beauty OF which
commercialism was seriously threaten.
ing.
The regulation Of billboards and the
abatement of the smoke nuisance are
part OF the associations programme
and while 1t is deeply interested in the
planning of cities, it isl
not above wagtng war on that disease
carrying pest, the house-f1y. Both of
the latter topics were generally dis
5ussed at the convention held in Gin
cinnati last November, and it was
agreed to make a national campaign
along both lines. The association has
also undertaken a campaign for a |
Safe and Sane, Fourth" and of civic |
education through churches and public |
schools.

FLOUR TRUST SURE
DECLARES MILLER
ALEXANDER BERGER or MIL
WAUkEE SAYS LAW TO PRE-
VENT COMBINES WILL
BRING IT ABOUT.

New York, Jan "a -four trust ie
one Of the probabilities OF the future
and to my mind lie bound to come. /"
was the rather startling prediction
made by Alexander Berger, promi
nent miller of Milwaukee, today. Mr..
Berger, who is the chief owner of the
Berger Crittenden Milling company
and has numerous other grain and
financial connections throughout the
west, was visitor on the produce ex-
change today. In further conversation
he said:
Il know 1t has always been assumed
that 1t was impossible to unite the
mills Of the country, for one reason be-
cause they are SO numerous and for
another because they are so largely
governed by local conditions. But the
government at Washington has provid-
ed every means for accomplishing this
result In the law that is supposed to
prevent 1t, namely, the Sherman anti
trust law.
When the -four trust comes II will
be because OF that laws operation. and
FOR no other reason. The milling in
dustry, taken altogether, Is the most
dlsorganized business there Is. The
methods Of transacting business are
entirely out of keeping with modern
ideas, SO that -four contract is en-
forceable only in the interests of the
buyer.
THE experience of every mill in the
country, big and little, this past year
is good example Buyers placed con-
tracts for flour at the beginning of the
season in such quantities as TO be be-
yond the ability of most Of them to
handle, either financially or physically
These were practically all made on the
usual sixty days delivery; and yet it
is well known fact-that the mills ey-
erywhere have been complaining for
months that they were unable to get
shipping directions In other words,
the buyers are calmly disregarding
their contract obligations and forcing
the mills to carry them. They are do
ing 1t because 1t has been done. so
long as to become a custom of the
trade.
obviously here is a state of things
that Is all wrong. A contract should
be- equally binding to both parties. but
somehow -four contract is not. The
way to remedy it is for all the mills to
form q compact to do business only
IN a certain way and according to GER
tain rules. But just let them try to |
do this and see how quickly the Sher- |
man law would be invoked. The result |
Is that it will be impossible for the |
weaker mills to continue, and that only
the stronger mills-the flttest-will !
survive. From that 1t is only a step to
q real trust"
