RAIL ROAD LEGISLATION
Passed by the Last Assembly. An
Important "Wye'' Bill

Bismarck, March 5.-At the last
session the railroad legislation has
been of far-reaching effect, the anti
pass which has long been an issue in
North Dakota politics will no longer
be heard of, as on July first the is
suance of free railroad mileage comes
to an end. Only few exceptions
are made in the anti-pass bill, and
those exceptions are in the cases Of
persons engaged in furthering the
agricultural and industrial interests
of the state, namely. in the farmers
educational movement and the de-
W. lopment of the vast Ignite coal
fields of the west.
To the board of railroad commits
sioners greater power in the control
of railroads has been granted, while
provision has been made for more
funds with which to carry on the
work; also the board has been given
control over telegraph and telephone
companies, and while this may not
be all important at the present time,
in the future it bids fair to be an i'm
portant department of activity.
In the passage of the wye" bill,
the state has taken a long step to-
ward enforcing the construction of
connecting "wyes" at points where
, railroads cross. One provision of
this measure, which is to the effect
that railroads must grant rate bas-
ed upon the shortest haul possible
if wye had been constructed will
result in the measure becoming Op-
erative in a more marked degree than
any other provision would make pos
sible.
Effecting the employees of rail-
roads, there is the full strength ca
boose bill This measure prescribed
that all cabooses must be construct
ed of standard strength equal to that
of the 10000 capacity freight cars
1t has been contended that since
the passage of the anti-dinkey ca
boose bill, two years ago, that the
railroads have adopted policy of US
ing two of the dinkey cabooses in
the construction of one Of the larger
cabooses, thereby placing in opera
tion a caboose that is not nearly as
strong as the regularly constructed
freight cars and which, in the event
, of collision, would not serve to
protect the lives of those therein.

ORPHEUM THEATRE

Last night was presented bill of
unusual merit. Billy Broad, billed
as the wandering minstrel, does an
act that is away from the usual black
face comedian. His eccentric dane
ing and funny sayings, kept the
large audience in a continual roar
of laughter. Porter and Clark, make
a good team, having fine line of
comedy, some good singing and the
fat girl from the country does clog
dancing that is great. The enthusiast
tic encore they receive is indicative
of the spirit with which vaudeville is
being welcomed in the city. The
pictures were of the best and the
illustrated song was well rendered
by Miss Emily Tilden.

JAMESTOWN LOST TO co. X.

The fast Co. X. basket ball team,
which played game here the first
of the week with the jamestown COL
lege, defeating that team, played the
jamestown Athletics at the Franklin
gym last night before large crowd,
in fast and very exciting game.
The jamestown boys play fast game
from start to finish and their floor
work was superior to the visiting team
but were unfortunate in basket shoot
ing and lost the game by a score of
25 to 12. Co X. has fast team and
has been on short tour through
this part of the state. The James,
town boys have not played together
for some time and considering being
out of practice, put up fine game.
