the legislature for the purpose of
considering a reapportionment meas
ure. The Bemidji Pioneer has start
ed move to put the matter up to
the governor of the coming meeting
of the development association. If
the demand is made sufficiently
strong Eberhart will not refuse to
redeem his pledge. He would not
dare turn down a practically unani-
nous demand, because it would mean
political suicide for him to turn his
back on Northern Minnesota's cry
for justice. And if an extra session
is called reapportionment will pass.
Many the legislators who voted
against it last session would be in
line for it next winter for the simple
reason that another election is close
at hand and they are too wise to do
anything to displease the people of
the state at time when they will
be asking for their votes. Every del
egate should go to the, development
association pledged to put the matter
straight up to the governor.-Bau-

Reapportionment the Biz Issue.

The Duluth Herald, Bemidji Pho
neer and a number of other state pa
pers are vigorously advocating the
calling of special session of the leg
islature the coming winter to pass
railroad legislation and a reappor-
tionment bill. The Herald seconds
the motion for an extra session called
for this purpose if enough members
of the legislature-both branches
sign pledges between now and
Christmas whereby they will pledge
themselves to vote for measures of
this kind. Without such ironclad
pledges an extra session would be
useless expense as we see no reason
why the members would pass such
legislation after having failed so to
do last winter. We do not believe it
wise, at this time, to call session to
consider railroad legislation alone,
but IT a reapp0rtionment bill could
be passed to become effective so that
a complete new legislature could be
elected next fall if the voters of the
state were so inclined, then a special
session would be a wise move. By
that time the final decision will be
rendered in the rate case and if the
supreme court decides in favor of the
railroads the senators and represen-
tatives who failed to safeguard the
interests of the common people can
be weeded out and men elected in
their place who stand ready and will
ling to pass legislation that will re-
suit in the railroads paying at least
fair share of the taxes of the state.

Good Grounds for COMPLAINT.

The Duluth Herald and the Be-
midi Pioneer are making a strenu-
GUS campaign for an extra session
of the legislature. The Herald bases
it's fight on the need of increasing
the tax assessment of the railroads,
while the Pioneer is putting forward
reapportionment as it's main argu-
ment for the session. Both of them
are right. Either issue is in itself
sufficient reason for the calling of the
session and taken together should
prove convincing enough to convince
even Governor Eberhart, if he is
amenable to reason.-R. V. Carr in
Middle River Pioneer.

War to the Hit.

At the Brainerd meeting of the
Northern Minnesota Development as
ISOLATION Governor Eberhart said, ''If
the legislature does not pass a just
reapportionment bill at the regular
session I will reconvene them in ex-
traordinary session for that purpose -
Then the air was rent with cheer up
on cheer, some threw their hats in
the air, others waived their arms
wildly and Eberhart was pronounced
"Adolph the Great" but alas, little
those delegates dreamed. that he was
only gushing hot air:
But those same delegates are now
determined that Governor Eberhart
shall make that promise good. Every
man that sat in that convention hall
that day will take his coat off and put
his shoulder to the wheel and some
thing will move or something will
Dust"
If Northern Minnesota is not en-
titled to representation according to
its population, then why should it be
taxed? This is the very question that
a great many years ago caused a peo-
pie to rise as one man and declare for
their just rights. They were Ameri-
can and the people of Northern Min
nesota are Americans and as such we
shall demand of the legislature equal
representation with the southern
half.
If the southern part of the state
feels that it does not need the north
ern part then why not divide the
state and lie us govern ourselves and
we will not have to bother them. Our
interests are not identical with theirs
and as long as matters continue as
they are at the present time it will
in all probability be war to the hilt.
The time is now ripe to push this
matter to point where action will
have to be taken.-Moose Lake Star
Gazette.

How About It, Bro. Halsted?

Bros. Halsted, who publishes the
Tribune in that thriving city of
Brainerd where Governor Eberhart
once made the assertion that he
would call an extra session of the
legislature to pass reapportionment
bill If necessary, does not warm up
to the extra session talk. 1t appears
to us that the governors assertion
should come near enough home to
the Brainerd editor to amount to
something. Pilot.

MAKES BIG MONEY
ON PULLMAN CARS

Washington.-The Pullman Car
company has increased its capital
from $1,250,0OO to $12O,O0O,OO0 in SO
years, according to a report of the
company made to the interstate COM
merce commission. During that pc
riod the annual dividend has been
about per cent. The company now
owns $3.50 cars.
The Pullman company long pro-
claimed that it was not a railroad
nor arrier; not subjet to federal reg
ulation. 1t claimed to be a hotel
company whose hotels were run on
wheels. But it has finally decided to
tell about its business and it relates
some interesting incidents The COM
pany started nearly so years ago with
$l,250,000 capital paid in except from
earnings, stock dividends have in
creased its capital until it is now
$120,000,000
A man who owned $1,000 of its
capital in its beginning would have
drawn down an average of per
cent or thereabouts a year ever since,
and, incidentally, had his capital in
creased to 100000. Last year the
company gathered in $33,334,0
from the operations of the $3.50 cars.
1t paid per cent cash dividends and
distributed s20,O00,0OO in stock. The
, company builds its own cars and
many others; even exports cars to
foreign countries.
A steel Pullman of the most mod
ern type costs s24,124; of the old
wooden type, s-4,T22. The average
Pullman ear earns a profit of 1852
Last year the interstate commerce
commission compelled a reduction of
upper berth rates, which was the first
real evidence the Pullman company
had ever discovered that, after all, il
was nearly mortal and subject to dis
abilities Ike other human nstitu-
I ons.

EXTOLS HOGS AS
4 PROFITABLE CROP

Extolling the virtues of the lowly
hog and lauding particularly his mon.
ey-making qualities, the Oregon
Washington Railroad & Navigation
company has issued a booklet for dis
tribution along its lines in the north
west, in furtherance of its policy of
encouraging diversif ed crops. The
pamphlet, entitled THE Money-Mak-
err" is given a subtitle. Swine
Raising in the Pacific Northwest" 1t
reads, in part, as follows:
Fertility of soil and plentiful
supply of pure water are the essential
points to be considered in choosing a
suitable location for hog raising. Civ
en- these, with an abundance of shade
and the necessary preliminary train
ing in swine husbandry, the man who
cannot make money out of this in
dustry may safely consider himself
as out of the running when it comes
to making money at anything. Soil,
water, shade and energy tell the story
i'm few words.
Almost any kind of SOIL, whether
II be black, chocolate, gray or red,
whether it be waxy or sandy, can be
made productive of pork making
crops, provided one will study the
many bulletins published by the
United States department Of agricui-
ture and furnished free by the de-
Yartment.
Either artesian. shallow well or
running stream, preferably the latter,
is good for hogs. II water must be
hauled or is scarce, an automatic wa
ter device should be used. 1t will pay
for itself quickly. The small running
streams originating from springs on
the individual farms are the best and
safest. Best, for the reason the wa
ter Is fresh and sweet, and safest for
the reason that the water cannot have
been contaminated by disease from
other herds up the stream. Where
larger streams run through the place
great care should be exercises to
know what herds water above you.

TO SECURE MORE
OF COLONIST TRAFFIC

The development congress which is
20 be held at Helena, Montant, next
month, promises to be one of the
most useful affairs of it's kind ever
pulled off in the northwest, says the
Salem Statesman. Governor West
has named a large list of delegates to
attend the meeting.
President Hill of the Great North
ern railroad is giving the meeting a
great deal of attention and has writ
ten several letters to Governor West
about the matter
Mr. Hill says that the purpose of
the meeting will be to devise some
way of stopping the rush to Canada
and directing the flow OF colonists to
the Pacific northwest. To do this
successfully he believes that the
sthtes should work together.
A part of the plan along this line
is to hold a land show at st, Paul.
one feature of the Helena meeting
will be an overland automobile race.
