Partial progress toward forcing the
use OF the home manufactured brick
on city work was made In the city
council last night by the adoption OF
"A resolution instrncting the city en-
gineer and inspector to accept and
use all brick from the local Yards
averaging up to sample Councilman
Dnnham made strenuous kick
against the original report OF the fin
ance committee. which had loop

already purchased brick elsewhere

job. This action OF council partly re.
lieves the city engineer from the re-
sponsibillty. Heretofore council has
succeeded in making him the goat in
the use Of doubtful material.
Beamer Is still disconsolate al/ut
'somethlng and he was the only one
who voted no on the resolution to re.
qnire the use OF home brick.

Agitation For Good Rnaa.

"A well known travelling man. ROYAL
good Fellow who has not a penchant
for grumbling, said this morning to The
Forum that it is good news to travel
ers who have to use horses or autos
In their work to learn that the subject
or good roads is to be taken nm aarn-
estly by the commercial club Of Moor
mead. The speaker said that he and
others, only little while ago. were on
their way from G1yndon to Ayerill and
from the latter place to FELTON, when
they had the time of their lives. The
point was reached where it became All
soiutely impossible for horses to travel
and they had to be abandoned. The
bitches were caving in at some points
causing stretches of the. road to he
nothing more or less than duck nonds-
the bitches were NOT even straight. The
impression was that the conditions were
not conducive to the inducing of set
tiers from the east coming here. 1t
1t alleged that it is the road super
visors who are to blame, that men are
put in authority who have no idea of
the science of road making or repair
ing. More than once lately travelling
men have been refused autos and
horses as the risk was too great on ac-
account OF the bad condition of, some
of the roads tributary to Fargo and
Moorhead 1t is said that even the
road between Moorhead and Dilworth
is abominable.

GOOD ROADS TO
BE CHIEF SUBJECT
COMMERCIAL CLUB PROPOSES TO
TAKE UP THIS SUBJECT AND
HANDLE 1T WITHOUT GLOVES
MANY OTHER IMPORTANT MAT.
TIERS COMING UP.

The commercial club of Moorhead
will meet in regular monthly session
tomorrow night While all Of the mat
ters which will be taken UP will be of
great interest to the city as a whole,
the most important subject will be the
one relating to good roads. The prom
Use is that it will be discussed very
forcibly and plainly. 1t is openly COM
mented upon that conditions of the
roadways closely within and Just be-
yond the city limits demand immediate
action on the part of the officials re-
sponsible
If the present bad roads are due to
official neglect the club proposes to find
1T out and If there is a shortage of
money to do the work properly. that
condition will be brought to the sur
face, too From all directions come
unfavorable comments about the roads
in parts of Clay county. and the COM
mercial club is out to use it's influence
and best endeavors to bring about a
change.
Another matter will be a report of
a committee which was to confer with
the officials of the local lodge of A. o.
U. w. relative to the contemplated
erection of a building for business and
lodge purposes and which will include
ample public hall space to meet the
needs of the city. 1t Is also expected
that the new building will be arranged
to furnish quarters for the commercial
club, office, library and a spacious par
lor. Workmen officials today said that
the block would be erected this year
and that it would probably be dedi-
Gated the first week in January.
The officials of the commercial club
have also been approached on the mat
ter of the Fourth of July celebration,
and that matter will be taken up to-
morrow night. g. 1t will be placed in the
hands of a committee of boosters to
plan tentative programme which will
later be submitted to the club.
Last but not least will be the SUBJ
mission Of the names of the special
committee on publicity by President |
Huntoon. The members Of the club
are chuck full of enthusiasm and this |
spring and summer 1t is proposed to /
do things for Moorhead and all of her
interests.

Liverpool, April 25.--Wheat: This
market at opening was affected by firm
ness In American cables and less fav-
prable American crop reports and
values are "a 10 n higher. Following
the opening the market showed a
very firm undertone with an addition
al advance of r. Russian shipments
were smalled than expected with
shipments to the United Kingdom
nearly million bushels less than last
week. Toward midday there was some
little pressure as the market became
dull and prices lost port Of the morn
ing advance, selling was prompted by
continued favorable Russian crop re-
ports, good harvest reports from India
and the fact that cargoes in distant
positions are being offered freely. At
midday the undertone was firm with
prices u to u higher with the princi
pal strength in October. Corn was dull
and nominally unchanged. India:
