DYNAMITE WILL
BE NEAR FARGO
REPRESENTATIVE FOR FIRM
HANDLING EXPLOSIVE SEEKS
TRACT or LAND NEAR THE CITY
WHERE he CAN LOCATE A pY-
MANTLE MAGAZINE.

It is entirely probable that in tn,
very near future large dynamite
magazine will be located near Fargo
and this city will become the dis
tributing point for the high explosive
throughout the state.
While nothing definite can be learn
ed regarding the proposed location OF
magazine near the city, nevertheless
1t has been announced that one OF the
big firms of the country which manu-
features dynamite is anticipating To-
eating storage house in the country
In the vicinity OF Fargo.
During the last few days a repre-
sentative of one of the big explosive
manufacturing firms has been investf-
eating land in the immediate vicinity
Of Fargo along the Great Northern and
Milwaukee roads. He has spent some
time at the register of deeds office
getting the names of the owners of
certain tracts near the railroad, 1t is
understood. with view of leasing or
buying a section or half section of
land.
The man stated confidentially to one
member of the force at the register of
deeds office, who was assisting him,
that his company intended to locate a
dynamite magazine near the city. He
was looking up the land records for
this purpose and hoped to be able to
secure some available property.
The man refused to state what COM
pany he was with or give out any in
formation regarding the proposed To-
cation of the magazine. AS rule, peo-
pie do not care to have a magazine OF
high explosives around and for fear of
opposition, 1t Is understood that moth |
Ing would be given out.
A representative of The Forum saw
the man later at the Gardner hotel and |
he would not give out any information |
regarding the location of the proposed
storage house.
AS yet there is no distributing point |
Tor dynamite in this section of the
northwest. Several of the wholesale
hardware houses carry some of the
esser explosives, but nothing is
handled that would in any way COM
'are with a magazine such as is pro-
POSED to store the dynamite.
The representative seemed to prefer
and along the Great Northern tracks
ust northwest Of the A. c., about a
nile out. However, he also looked UP
and located on the Milwaukee road.

carried on by the national rivers and

adjustment of comprehensive policy
on the part of the federal government
towards the waterways of continental
United States. For many years q
student of the great economic ques-
tions which confront the people OF the
United States, he has taken time I'm
the last few months to make close
study of waterways as affecting the
transportation problem. In recent
speech at Burlington, NJ r., speaking
upon the needs Of improving the wa

II want to point out to you that the
railways Of New Jersey have so mon
opolized the tariff OF New Jersey that
many Of her best energies have been
cabined and confined until she has had
an artificial growth IN some parts and

And these men had gathered together
to show how she had but to open her
arteries and let her blood flow, how
she had but to make a little link here

highways would carry her boats and
her cargoes, link her processes OF
trade with every part of the country

winds and dangers of the outer coast
and see her factories grow thick
along the lines of great highway,
where no man could establish mon
opoiy and where the people would
have their rule and their opportunity

Near ExpIosion.

Crary Public Opinion: A near auto
accident occurred in Crazy Tuesday
afternoon. Chas. Wright was just
about starting his Jackson touring car
from the garage, when he discovered
fire under the machine at the head Of
the muffler. Fearing an explosion Of
the gas tank he pushed the machine
out in the street, and with the aid OF
hand grenades and Babcock fire extin-
guishers the fire was put out without
any damage to the car. The oil and
grease were burned of but the gas
tank did not explode.

higher. The strength was based on
continued continental buying, firmness
or Russian holders, complaints of heat
and drought in southern Russia and
unfavorable reports from India. There
was further rainfall in the northwest.
The market is apt to rule higher in
sympathy with the strength abroad,
but crop conditions in this country are
improved, owing to precipitation and
lower temperatures
Corn-Liverpool n higher. Specula-
tive offerings continue light while the
cash demand is only mcSerate. We
are inclined to look for a steady mar
ket with moderate price changes.
Oats-There is considerable talk
about reduction in acreage and some
fears of high temperatures affecting
the growing crop. There is more or
less buying of the deferred futures of
so-called investment character. The
undertone Is steady, the cash demand
being fair, with the country inclined
to sell for shipment on all little adj
vances.
Provtsions-There seems to be some
congestion in May pork. Cash trade
keeps good and we look for a steady
market. Bartlett Frazier Co,

long side and is TN state constant APP
prehension regarding the possibility of
damage by drought. While we feel
that the crop outlook at the moment is
entirely satisfactory we also realize
the fact that sufficient moisture from

easily result. We have, therefor, to-
