Yesterday afternoon interest centered
in the deliberations Of the Publishers
Association. Herman Ridder presided.
and papers on advertising" ''Circula-
ton" and ways and Means for Ex-
tending the Capacities of Plants were
read. Mr.. Ridder made an address on
Efficiency in Newspaper Management,
saying, in part:
1--WE pay over fifty-five million dollars
for the newsprint paper which we use,
yet we have no standards except those
Of weight, fixed for us by unlawful COM
was to increase the weight and cost Of
paper sold to us. Our methods in the
use of paper are so whimsical that
mill equipped to meet all OF our needs
would require 1856 distinct stocks of cores
to provide for our varied width of rolls.
Our workmen gather up whatever meth
DDS or traditions there are in the bust.
ness by absorption or observation of
those Immediately around them.
Says Unions Destroy Incentive.
MANY of us try to obtain ready-made
competent managers by hiring men whom
others have trained, instead Of applying
ourselves to that important work Of edu-
cation and development. The labor unions
are destroying incentive for efficient Ia
Dor. They seem to be arrayed against
promotion or the culling out Of compe-
tents from incompetents. They bring every
member to dead level of efficiency,
and that level is usually below that Of
the most inferior workman In the shop.
They are against bonuses. Many labor
unions deliberately plan to curtail out
put under the mistaken idea that they
are increasing employment. 1t Is noto
rious that man workmen turn out just as
little as they can safely do. Underworld
ing or soldering Is almost universal.
1t is more than a national evil, because
1t extends to other countries. The condi-
tons which permit it are intolerable and
should be seriously studied and corrected.
1.-The business Of print paper making is
mill, with only two or three exceptions.
the method of beating or mixing the ma
terials to be used in the making Of paper
is identical with that which prevailed 200
years ago. Forester Pinchot said that
of three trees cut in the woods for paper
making only one went into paper. Re
cent experiments made in Germany indi
cate that mechanical pulp can be made
with one-third of the power now used.
In other words, our pulp grinding ca
pacity may be multiplied soon by three. I
think I can safely say that every fnven-
ton which saved labor in newspaper pro-
duction increased the number Of men en-
ployed and shortened their hours of Ia
Dor and improved their conditions"

MUSIC LOVERS.


That Devils Lake can and will pat
ronize first class musical attractions
was ably demonstrated Tuesday, even
ing when the Grand theatre was packed
to the doors to greet the st. Paul Sym.

and the audience proved delightful
one. ,1u
The program was splendidly selected
and magnifcently rendered, beginning
with Schubert's Diminished Sym
phcny" an dending with the ever
pleasing "Blue Danube'' waltz. The
orchestra attained its highest technique
in the Peer Gynt Suite, "Anitra' IS

INTERESTED IN STORY
FIFTY. YEARS AGO. IN ST. PAUL
DISPATCH ESPECIALLY INTER
EsT1Na TO LOCAL MAN.

The series of articles now appearing
in the St. Paul Dispatch, though read
with more than passing interest by
many a resident of Devils Lake, holds
q peculiar attraction for Mr.. 9. ".
Fisher, Of the Ramsey County Nation
al Bank, whose father, was at that time
editor of the st. Paul Pioneer Press.
'Though but boy" said Mr.. Fisher,
in discussing the series with a repre-
sentative Of The World, ~ remember
distinctly the day that Richmond fell.
I was standing on the street with my
father when the telegraph operator,
there was only one in those days, came
up and in whisper told my father the
news. In a moment my father had
reached his Office and scribbled off a
bulletin. telling the story in a few
words and announcing an extra in it,
teen minutes. I am enjoying reading
the stories as they appear, due to the
recollections they bring up

JAMES HENLEY DEAD
WE'LL KNOWN RESIDENT OF
RAMSEY COUNTY sUCCUMBs
TO FINAL ILLNESS.

The funeral of James Henley, prom,
inent resident of Ramsey county, who
died the first of the week, will be held
today, the body having been lying in
state in the Masonic hall for the last
two days.
The demise of Mr.. Henley did not
come as a surprise as he has been suf.
fering for the last few months and his
departure was expected for some time.
Mr.. Henley was 81 years of age and
has been a resident OF North Dakota
for the past twenty-six years. Prior to
that time he lived in Chicago with his
parents. He leaves a wife and eight
children and two brothers, who are
residents of Devils Lake.
Mr.. Henley was popular among those
who knew him and his kindly disposi-
tion and genial good fellowship made
him friends wheree 'er he went. The
heartfelt sympathy of his host Of
friends is extended to his wife and
children in their hour of bereavement.
His children are: Mrs. Ernest Pifer of
this city, Mrs. Ernest Burt of Doyon,
Arthur and Joseph of Fox Lake, Mrs.
John Stewart of Fox Lake, Miss Ruby
and Miss Laura of this city and Miss
Anna who lives at home.

MAJOR sTEDNAN PLEASED WITH
SHOWING OF THE NORTH DA-
KoTA GUARD.

The following from the Bismarck
Tribune will be Of ;ntt rest to the local
militia members:
Major R. R. Steadlran, y. s. A.. re-
tired, military secre ;u'i. to the gov
ernor, who recently returned to the
capital city after accompanying Lieut..
Herbst, IA U. S. Inf, and Col. }. II.
Frame, commanding the first regiment
of Infantry, N. D. N. G., ON the annual
tour Of inspection Of the North Dakota
regiment, expressed himself Tuesday
as very much pleased with the i'm
companies Of the regiment over year
ago.
The arms and equipment of the com
panies were found to be in excellent
condition and the different organiza-
tions were prepared to take the
field at short notice.
Not all of the companies drilled as
some of them did not have armories
held for actual service ON short notice
and did not have an opportunity to
use large enough floor. However,
those that did drill appeared to a very
good advantage. The North Dakota
regiment of guardsmen is one Of which
the residents of the state may feel just,
ly proud, and in case any trouble
should ariuA: and they would be called
out, could be relied, upon to give. as
good an account of themselves as they
did in the Philippines during the insur.
rection in '98. -

ARCHITECT SHANNON HAS; COM
PLETED PLANS FOR THE NEW
SCHOOL BUILDING.

The plans for the addition to the
school building at the School for the
Deaf have been completed by Archi-
tect Shannon and are on exhibition at

to carry the steam pipes and the elect
ric wires. The first and second floors
are divided into twelve class rooms

Deputy Here.

Hans Hovind, deputy sheriff Of Ward
county, under Sheriff Ed. Kelly, who is
we'll known in Devils Lake, was in the
city yesterday on business before the
land Office. In Niessrs. Hovind and
and Kelly Ward county has a pair
of law enforcing officials that make the
wayward criminal shake in his boots.
Early in the game when both were
deputies they obtained the, titles Of
The Bandit Chasers, and made good.
Kelly is the man who rounded up the
Sawyer bank robbers after memoir
able chase, while Hans has been on the
trail so long that now when crime
is committed nine times out Of ten
the criminal appears at the court house
and gives himself up before Hovind
is sent out. Mr.. Hovind paid The
World a pleasant visit and talked over
the old days with the editor.

WATER SERVICE IS
/. ONLY TEMPORARY
MANAGER KERL1N WISHES c1T1-
zENs TO KNOW TRUE FACTS
IN WATER MATTER. {,

Because the Daily Journal of this
city misrepresented the facts in connec.
tion with the Sweetwater connection.
Manager Kerlin has asked The World
to publish correction in order chat
the taxpayers may not be labor ng un-
der a false impression.
"The Sweetwater connection il nor
permanent said Mr.. Kerlin in his in.
terview with the editor OF. The World,
"nor had I intended at any time that it
should be. The action that was taken
was because Of the ultimatum issued by
the insurance adjusters in which they
claimed that the rates would be raised
here unless something was done. in
tend to continue drilling wells and will
try to give the people the water they
want. II the wells fail still have the
artisan well to fall back upon." When
asked regarding the announcement that
appeared in the Journal regarding the
Sweetwater connection in which it was
stated that the arrangement would
probably become permanent, Mr.. Ker-
lin said: "The article was sent by me
to Mr.. Bloom from Bismarck but I did
not say anything regarding the perma-
nency of the arrangement and 1 did
not believe that he would insert any,
thing OF. the kind. 1 want that correct
ed.''
The World has no fight with Mr..
kerlin but it does not intend to stand
for the dilatory tactics that have been
employed in the past. That there is
good water in abundance in the city
if properly gone after is the opinion of
men who have lived here and studied
the conditions and the water users are
entitled to it. The Sweetwater plan
is hardly feasible, even as tempor-
ary arrangement except for fire protec-
tion ard it is hoped that prompt steps
are taken to better present conditions.

DECIDES LAND CASE
JUDGE BUTTE DECIDES AN I'M
PoRTANT POINT IN "a ToWNER
CoNuT YcAsE OVER LAND.

A decision was handed down this
week by Judge Buttz in the case OF
Robert Blesset vs.. E. L. Turcotte and
wife involving title to valuable quar-
ter section Of land in Towner county
The case is one of long standing, hav'
ing been tried in the District court, ap
pealed and sent back. for q new trial
on the question of the time the mort.
gage had been held. Blesset formerly
owned the land and in the early 9Cs
mortgaged it for 500, leaving for Can
ada. The land and the mortgage were
bought by Turcotte, who farmed it
continuously until 1907, when an alb
stractor nomed Abbot found an alleged
aefect.
The case was an interesting one.

CHANGE IN WEATHER
NEW wEATHERldAN ARRIVES ON
THE JOB TO PREDICT RAIN
FOE THE SUMMER.

Not having been successful! in Sc
curing enough rain for this section Of
the country during the past year Mr..
c. E. Norquest has been transferred to
Indianapolis and Mr.. A. Y. Randall ar
rived last week to take charge of the
local station. Mr.. Randall, it il claim.
ed, had more rain in the section of th,,
country he ordered weather for than
any other part of the United States.
The removal of Mr.: and Mrs Nor
quest who have been excellent residents
Of the city will be source of disap-
pointment but that fact does not inter
fere with the heartj welcome which
Mr.. and Mrs. Randall are rightfully
receiving.
