WHEAT LIQUIDATION.

The Minneapolis Tribune SAYS
In spite Of the drastic decline I'm
wheat prices the last week. the essen
tial factors that have made strong
market remain unchanged. CONNER
cially the conditions are healthy:
there is steady absorption OF cash
wheat at premiums compared with
the December future.
The liquidation OF speculative ac-
counts was forced by the Technically
weak position OF these holdings In the
pit due to the elimination of the vul-
nerable short interest and the panic
which hit the bull traders when 1t was
noised about that government inves-
tigation was on.
The decline in wheat became a bull
debacle. Tho long account in the mar
ket was like a row Of blocks standing
within touching distance of each 9TH
err AS soon as one toppled over the
disaster Travelled rapidly down the
line. Whether the line of least re-
sistence has been followed to it's linn
1t remains to be determined. 1t is the
history OF markets that speculation
grows by what 1t feeds upon; in a de-
clining market Oppressive Information
carries weight. in a rising market on
ly buoyant news is In the ascending
Just as the recent bull market brought
an over-bought technical pit situation.
SO the present downturn WIN lfkelv
continue until 1T is technically weak
from overselling.
The best test Of a commodity mar
ket is the position Of the cash article.
The underlying strength OF the wheat
situation Is the broad commercial de-
mand although supplies in sight are
large and the requirements are limited
to home consumption. The mills of
the country are doing a fairly active
business and under conditions that. SO
FAR, insure a steady trade without es
pecial consideration Of the price. Even
with the unsettlement caused by
sharp recessions in quotations last
week the volume Of -four booked was
very good; a development, under such
conditions, most unusual.
Prices have now receded to a point
which puts the country quotations
considerably under the dollar level.
Farmers of the northwest sold very
literally on the late advance to the
high point Of the season. 1T remains
to be seen II they will continue to mar
ket as freely at the present prices. The
favorable weather has. Of course. per-
mitted return to the interrupted
threshing operations which has help
ed to swell the primary receipts. Ar
rivals are still well in excess of mill
ing requirements but the additions
to the visible stocks are on a cirnfn
ishing scale.

POOL ROOM ORDINANCE.

The pool rooms of Fargo must close
at II o'clock each night and on sun
days. The enactment OF the ordi-
nance is directly due to the disregard
of some Of the proprietors for the ex.
listing law. 1t is the same old story.
Some OF the places permitted boys of
~ and IA years Of age to play. They
declined to observe the law-eyen
when demonstrated with by parents
and the heads of school departments.
Probably the primary cause of the
trouble was the manner in which the
proprietor or one place permitted lot
OF half-baked youths to stand in the
entrance Of his place and insult women
and girls who passed. His attention
was called to the acts Of the Juvenile
idiots who made his place hang-out
but there was no relief.
The Forum does not believe a new
ordinance was necessarily the old
one had baen enforced. II the oficials
and proprietors pay no more attention
to the new measure than to the others
little good WIFI be accomplished.
The people responsible for the new
ordinance have overlooked one fea-
ture. In closing the pool halls sun
day they have arranged for no SUBJ
atitute amusement for the youth. The
result may be lot Of private poker
Eanies--trips to Moorhead and other
practices equally as Objectionable as

Bowman Pioneer: The announce
ment of the candidacy of L. b. Hanna
for governor OF North Dakota seems to
meet with the approval of the peo-
pie throughout the state. judging by
the newspapers. Mr. Hanna Is a sue
cessful business man. has the inter-
ests of this great state at heart and
as our representative In congress has
always labored faithfully for his con-
stituents. He Is certainly the type Of
man to have at the head Of our state
government just at this time when so
many forces are at work for the de-
velopment of the agricultural re-
sources of North Dakota. There also
seems to be demand for Usher L.
Burdick to be a candidate for the of
fice of lieutenant governor which he
now holds-at least we know that is
the sentiment in Bowman and Bill
1ings counties.

the upbuilding Of public highways and
that North Dakota should not be be-

would be an excellent thing for the
whole nation. Then he explained
somewhat In detail the national high
ways bill OF Senator Cullom OF Illinois
which is now pending before the ma

In addition to this Mr. Hanna referred
to his own public highways bin before
congress which provides for a federal

LAW MAY PREVENT PLAN TO 80
RUN NEW CARS ON RAILROAD
Ann Arbor Line Proposes to Charge
Rate Of Five Cents a Mile For
Short Runs.

LANSING, Mich, Jan. 3l.-(Spe-
CiaD-That the law on the Michigan
statute books regulating the fares tn
be charged by railroads in this state
may prove a barrier to the Ann Ar
Dor Railroad company in its plan TO
operate gasoline motor cars over Its
lines, was a point raised by Chairman
&c. J.. Glasgow, OF the state railroad
commission this morning, when ii was
called to his attention that the COD
pany was planning TO charge a mini
mum fare OF FIVE cents when the gaso-
line motor cars, were placed in ser.
vice.
Recently the state railroad commits
sion authorized a. bond issue Of sev-
eral hundred thousand dollars so that
the Ann Arbpr company could rur-
chase new cars and extend its ser
vice. Ii was the plan OF the COM
uany to purchase five gasoline motor
cars at a cost of $4,000 each. The
ears were not to supplant the regn-
lar trains now in use, but were to be
placed in service on short runs.
. According to the Michigan statute,
railroads may charge a rate OF three
cents per mile for a distance not ex-
ceeding five miles. ,'.' 80
Inasmuch as the Ann Arbor COM
pany planned to operate a sort OF in
:erurban service over its steam lines,

who was In the city a few days ago
