Three HUNDRED
Miners ARE DEAD
Result Of an Explosion in a
Co|Iiery in England.

Bolton, Eng, Dec. 22.-More than
300 GOLFERS. lost their lives in an ex-
ploslon in the Little Hutton colliery
of the Hutton Colliery company, which
is located a little distance outside this
city.
The explosion occurred early in the
morning, soon after the miners had
entered the pit to begin work. It's
force was terrific and later investiga-
ton showed that the lower passages
had been blocked. Heroic efforts
were made by rescue parties all day
long, but a fierce fire which followed
the explosion prevented the rescuers
from penetrating beyond 400 yards
into the WORKINGS.
The explosion resulted in the tenn
porary. disablement of the machinery
whereby the cages are lowered and
some time elapsed before the first res
cue party could reach, the bottom of
the pit. Eight men in all were res
cued, but the majority of these were
in a serious condition from the nox-
o gases. Ten bodies also were re-
moved and twenty more were found
partly covered by heavy falls of coal.

leather factory of Daniel Friedlander

when the several walls of the five
story building fell in on them.
Of the injured several are in a
critical condition and may die.
What is believed to be the last body
in the ruins was taken from the ice
coated mass of debris sixteen hours
after the fire started.
Two firemen were taken out of the
ruins alive after having been pinned
under the great mass of twisted iron
and broken bricks for twelve hours,

on the way to a hospital.

LADD is ON THE WARPATH
Food Commissioners Attacks Patent
Medicines.

Fraudulent patent medicines are
scored by E. F. Laid, commissions
er of pure foods Of North Dakota, in a
bulletin just issued. Legislation deal.
ing with the subject is urged by him
for passage at the coming session of
the state assembly. North Dakota, he
declares, is made a veritable dumping
ground for a certain class of fraudu-
lent medicines, and in his statement
covering the situation. he points out
needed legislation to further safeguard
public health and do away with the
fraudulent practice.
Frauds are everywhere" says Com
missioner Ladd. There are men who
have failed in every legitimate under
taking with which they have been con-
nected, or have been far from a sue
cess, who turn their attention to the
manufacture and sale of patent medi-
cines, 'dopes,' and preparations with
which to- defraud the pubIic.1
AT the present time, what is need
ed more than anything else in North
Dakota is a law requiring every person
to register the medicines intended to
be sold by a non-registered pharma-
cist. Let this registration be made in
each county in the state. Let no Ii
cense be granted so long as this prod
uct is In violation of Our present drug
or beverage laws or where frauds or
deception is being practiced, or where
exaggerated, unwarranted and false
claims r made with regard to the
properties or use of any drug or medi-
cine intended to be sold in the state"

IMMENSE SUM is DESIRED
Quarter OF a Million Dollars Wanted
for a School.

Conditions that the state of North
Dakota has not had to contend
with in the upbuilding of it's other ed.
vocational institutions will be met when
the time comes for the launching OF
the new normal school in Minot, au
thorized by a constitutional amend.
ment voted upon %favorably in the re
cent election. An appropriation OF
$25O,000 will be asked of the legisla.
u this winter to do the first con.
struction work on what Minot and
people of the northwestern section OF
the state believe will, in time, become
one of the states greatest educational
institutions.
Mlnot's normal must, the people OF
the city say, be started on a broad
plane-on a basis great enough to take
care Immediately of an enrolment as
great as either of the other state
normal schools now enjoy after thei1
many years of existence.
An impressive fact that must be
taken into consideration by the legis.
lature in making it's appropriation is
that 10000 people reside closer ia
Mlnot than to any of the other educa
tional institutions.
With this immense territory to draw
from it is absolutely certain that the
early enrollments in the Minot normal
will be larger than those experienced
oy the Mayville and Valley City nor.
mails, both of which were established
about the time the states entire pop.
ulation was just a little larger than
that portion of the states population
OF today which must consider Minot
as the nearest and most accessible ed.
ucational point.

RAIL DISPUTE
IS ADJUSTED.
Strike Of Western Locomotive
Engineers Averted.
PARTIAL VICTORY FOR men
Secure an Increase of Ten Per Cent
in Wages and Improvement in
Working Conditions.

Chicago Dec. 24.-The wage dispute
between the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and sixty-one railroads
west, north and south of Chicago was
settled here today. There will be no
strike.
Instead the engineers get an aver
.ge increase in. wages of 1913 per cent
of their 1910 wage scale, giving them
a Christmas promise of an average of
approximately 1912 for each of the 49,
900 men involved for each subsequent
year. Specifically the agreement pro-
vides for a raise of 40 cents a day for
all engineers, with a differential in
addition of 25 cents a day for 215, OOO-
pound engines, an added differential
of rs cents a day for the smaller NAL
let engines and a differential of 81 a
day for the heaviest mallets.
In a letter to United States Commits
sioner Neill, who, as mediator under
the Erdman act, brought the settle
ment out of what seemed a sure Gis-
agreement, Grand Chief Engineer War
rem S. Stone of the Brotherhood gave
as the reason for accepting the terms
offered the suffering and loss which
would attend a general Western strike.
Numerous specific working condi-
lions are improved by the agreement
formally signed late today. Engineers
are given control of electric and gaso-
line motor cars used as locomotives,
with an increase of so cents a day in
present wages. Holsters under the
protection of the engineers get an in
crease of % cents a day.
This agreement, coming at Christ
mas eve, gives the engineers on all
the stXty-one railroads affected by the
adjustment a total of some $3,SS9,000
annually. In addition it means a re-
lief to the thousands of shippers who
have hung on the words of the con
ference day after day when it seemed
that a strike would tie up the whole
West and Middle West.

He is not to retire and he says so

no room to doubt that he speaks by

AS originally drawn the bill prohib-
tied the creation of further religious
establishments in the country until

News Of the Week From Vari-
Gus Parts Of the State.
WOULD REPEAL THE MEASURE
State Auditor D. K. BrightbiIl Wants
the Wolf Bounty Law Done
Away With.

That the wolf bounty law should
be repealed is the opinion of State
Auditor D. X. Brightbill. Contradic-
lions to the laws, one providing for a
state bounty and the other for a coun-
ty bounty, together with the fact that
there is no longer any need of a
bounty being paid by the state, is n
reason advanced for the change.
In 1909 the total amount of certifi-
Gates issued by the counties under the
state bounty law and presented to the
state auditor for registration was $780,
291.50. This indicates that during the
year there were killed a total of 11,717
wolves. Iii 1909 the auditor paid out
$41,355 state wolf bounty, the differ
ence paid out between the value of
certificates presented being explained
by reason Of the fact that some of the
1908 certificates were paid in 1909.
The average payment for the past
five years has been $4,000 a year or
$4,000 a month. Since 1897, when the
law went into effect, there has been
taxed against the people of the state
a total of S403, 211.6S.
In the eastern counties of the state,
where a large amount of tax is paid,
because of the higher valuation, the
least benefit is. received. This is shown
in the ISL of Grand FORKS county,
which in 1909 paid a total of $2,576.48
into the wolf bounty fund, when, as a
matter of fact, certificates from that
county registered during the year
amounted to only 1925. The same
holds true in the case of practically
every eastern county in the state.

SHORTAGE OF SEED WHEAT
North Dakota Farmers Are Asking
for State Aid.

Shortage of seed wheat in Ward
county and in that section of the state
is indicated by the many applications
for aid at the hands of the county un.
der the terms OF the state seed law.
This law allows the boards of com.
missioners of the various counties to
issue bonds and purchase seed wheat
for the farmers, taking a lien against
the crop to protect the county.
Last year Ward county issued $685.
800 bonds for the purchase OF wheat
under this plan. During the present
year 1t is expsctsd that this amount OF
bonds Will be increased.
