new FREIGHT
RATES READY
Much Interest in ClaSSifiCa-
tlOnS to be Effective
February |
ABOUT 5000 ARTICLES
AFFECTED BY ARRANGEMENT

Manufacturers and other patrons Of
the Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and
Reading and the Cumberland Valley
railroads are interested in the new
freight rate classification which it is
proposed by the trans-continental
lines to adopt and become effective by
the first Of February.
About 5000 articles are affected by
the new arrangement. Some Of the
changes will be in the nature Of re-
ductiOns and others Encreases-the
last mentioned being principally Of
minimum weights In the latter, as
far as commercial conditions would
permit, shippers have aided the rate
makers in establishing fair ones. En-
cept for such notifications as chang
ing conditions shall necessitate, the
new classifications are expected To
remain in force for many years after
they become effective. In fact this
change will be the first IN respect ~
a general revision Of rates for trans
porting freight on steam railroads that
will have been made in this country
in more than twenty years
The fact that several months we're
required to reach what is regarded as
fair rate on agricultural implements
alone affords some idea of the magni-
tude of the task involved in the re-
vision Of the existing classification
which has been i'm continuous progress
for more than three years. But while

and then the daily thaw causes them
to become soft. The result is that
they are extremely muddy and in
many cases there are deep ruts. With
continual frost day and night the
roads would have an opportunity to
dry out to some extent and the
wagons would soon overcome the

tlat 1t may still be impossible to come
to any definite conclusion. We believe
and hope that this will be the case. We
would then always have the opportunity
of giving the Spaniards the benefit oi
the doubt, while in our own case, we
would not like to know that we had
blamed and accused the Spaniards of a
crime that they did not commit.
The greatest benefit of the raising OF
the Maine will doubtless be that the
wreck will be removed from the promin.
ent position that it has occupied in
Havana harbor, and when out of sight
will soon be forgotten and cease to be a
perpetual reminder of a terrible catas.
trophe, which may or may not have been
crime, but which did much to cause a
war and to some extent change the map
Of the world.
But that the bodies of the drowned
seamen shall be raised and placed in a
more decent and fitting cemetery, is also
worth something. Not that it makes
any difference to those martyrs but that
it may again be shown "that republics
are not always unRrateful."

From the Commanders report to the
G. A. r. encampment at Grand Forks
last week, we learned that the present
attendance at the Soldiers Home at
Lisbon is now forty. consisting of
forty-one men and six women. Perhaps
the most remarkable and surprising
statement to most people is the fact that
this year the Home has no appropriation
from the state and needed none because
the income from the public lands be-
longing to the institution along with the
allowance of sl0o year received from
the U, S. government for each inmate
is ample to pay the necessary
expenses. 1t don't cost the taxpayers
of the state one cent to support the old
soldiers there.

EARLY and Late County Fair.

Over in Kittson across the river there
is internecine war. For q good many
years Rallock has been trying to get the
whole Of the state appropriation for its
"county fair" but up to this time st.
Vincent has always succeeded in getting
the county board to appropriate part
to st. Vincent. This year majority Of
the county board voted to give the
whole appropriation to Hallock which
holds its fair on July 4th.
Editor DeFrance in commenting there
on says rather sarcasticly:-
1--WE have been here several years and
have never heard anyone say there was
q fair in Hallock yet. OF course it may
be instructive for the sgriculturslist to
see red merry goaround and a strong
man and bicycle rider and string Of
fast horses. It probably stimulates HIM
to produce better grains and roots and
better stock"
While this paper does not intend in
anyway to "butt i'm in the quarrels Of
our neighbors. yet We want to bear
witness that the criticism made by the
New Era could not be made against the
st. Vincent fair. While not very extens-
i've in slze, yet the yearly shows Of
Vegetables and in culinary and other
ladies handiwork the exhibits there
have been remarkably good-snd far
SURPRISING those Of any other fair in this
locality that holds fairs ct earlier dates.
It is impossible to make any showing Of
farm and garden products in July.
There isn't any at that time.
OF course we understand that the
managers Of the fairs think ! later date
will interfere with harvest time and con-
squently at that time they would have
little attendance, 60 they take the earlier
date and get tho people hut hsve no
show Of agricultural products and serve
up horse races and vaudeville in the
place thereof. II, however, makes the
difference between real fair and just
an affair

G. A. R. AND G. F..

The writer enjoyed participating in
the annual encampment of the q. A. R.,
at Grand Forks on Wednesday and
Thursday last week, from several points
Of view.
Most of these old veterans are not only
comrades of the GA. R which forms .
strong tie Of friendship. but they are al
go comrades Of the pioneer days Of North
Dakota and have borne large share in
the development Of this state. There
fore they seem bound to US by the
double tie, both as soldiers Of the civil
war and soldiers Of the army Of civiliza-
tion.
The attendance was large considering
the number in the state and the dis.
abilities that age has brought to 20
many Of them. The death rate is now
very large and many faces seen at former
encsmpments were sadly missed.
The ladies Of the w. r. G. we're there
in large numbers. They are not only
always right on hand at such gatherings
but are the right hands of the old veter-
ans in many ways.
Grand Forks entertained the old boys
with great hospitality. Meals were pro-
vided for al both men and women.
Grand Forks is getting fine reputation
as convention town. There were four
or five conventions there last week alone.
While Grand Forks undoubtedly finds
it . paying investment to be hospitable.
yet they could not and would not be
hospitsble unless they opened their
hearts as we'll ~ their purses.
The Improvements going on in the city
are notable to the stranger who visits
from time to time, Grand Forks
evidently believes that beauty is as
much finaucial asset asRrowth, and
she is getting and doing both.

with an advertisement. You need
Durch-the appearance of forceful
honesty and convincing power IL the
wording and expression of the ad to
bring the results that you have a
right to expect from it.
1t is punch that makes all the diff
ference between success and failure
in the advertisements Of our greatest
retailers. 1t is punch that will bring
success to you through your announce
ments and unless you are able to in
corporate punch into them, you may
as we'll do no advertising at all.
The best way to get advertisements
that have not only the necessary punch
but that are constructed in every way
to bring results is to buy syndicated
advertising service. This service is
offered In series of SO, one advertise
ment for each week in the year. Each
ad is supplied along with an attention
compelling copperplate cut, the illus
tration drawn by a high priced artist.
The whole series has been construct
ed by an advertising expert with Il
national reputation who has made sue
cess for many other merchants in the
same position as yourself. 1t would
be impossible to buy those advertise
ments for the low price at which they
are sold-from one dollar per week up
but for the large numbers of each
kind that are sold to thousands of re-
tailers throughout the country. Only
one merchant in each trade is allowed
to use a service in his own town
The retailers here would do we'll
to get full particulars of this new syn
dcated advertising service from the
editor of this paper. The use of such
salesmanship IN papcT--which may be
called advertising with punch in it
is the straightest road to advertising
success
