Drug Manufacturers Heard.

Washington, B. c., March 20.-A
hearing was given today at the de-
partment Of agriculture by the pure
food and drug board to the manu-
facturers of opium, morphine and its
derivatives. The department has
been trying for some time to limit
the trade in habit-forming drugs and
infant medicines containing NOR
phine and kindred products. This
activity has inconvenienced the man
ufacturers of proprietary medicines
to some extent, thus leading to a
protest against the drastic enforce
ment of, the law.

Talks on Methods Of Reducing Large
Loss to Be Given in The Com

WASTE HERE $1,000 PER CAPITA
Bemidji People Are Said to Pay
Four Times Average Rate in
United States.

= Eighteen members of the Mime
sofa State Fire Prevention society
will arrive in Bemidji tomorrow
noon from Crookston where they are
holding meeting today. After din
ner, an inspection will be made Of
the down town business district, the
men working by pairs. In the even
ing meeting will be held In the
Commercial club rooms at s p. m.
The public is invited.
Talking over the long distance
from Crookston, Louis l.. Law, secre-
tary OF the association, said, "The
purpose of these meetings Is to re-
duce the fire waste in this state. We
want the people to see that every
time the fire department is called out
it means more than a spectacular
parade. We want to show them that
they-not the insurance companies
pay for the fire losses. The fire
loss per capita last year in. Europe
was thirty cents, in the United States
1t was z$2.04. IN BEMIDH IT WAS
$1,000. We want to show Bemidjt
people how they can cut down this
enormous loss and not only save mon
ey in insurance rates but in actual
property loss" .tz# .@s.cs
Sometime during the afternoon,
the pupils of the High school and the
eighth grade will be called together
by Professor Dwyer and will be ad-
dressed by some of the visitors. The
association realizes that the children
of a community are power for fire
prevention and are endeavoring to
enlist them in the fight. At Crook
ston today, all pupils in the eighth
grade and above are being addressed.
Among the men who will arrive in
Bemidji tomorrow are President
stinson and Secretary Law, of the as
sociation, and A. NJ. Walker, assist
ant state fire marshal. Mr.. Law said
this morning that Fire Marshal Kel-
Ter would be unable to attend the
meeting and that Mr.. Wallace would

Few Precincts Which Have Not Yet
Reported Will Probably Not
Reduce Total.
ROOSEVELT IS FAR BEHIND
Did Not Develop Expected Strength
In the Slope and Valley
Counties.
Results At $3.50 P. NJ.

Grand Forks, March 2O.-(Special
by long distance)--sO3p precincts out
of 1880 report 19,440 for La Fol-
lette; 12,131 for Roosevelt; and l.
008 for Taft. 1t is believed here that
La Toilette will carry the state by
$4,000 to $4,000 when all of the re-
turns are in.
Grand Forks, March 20.-Sweep-
ing across North Dakota like the
storm itself, the sentiment for La
Toilette crystalized yesterday and he
carried the state in the presidential
primaries by majority of over 12,-
900 votes.
With but few precincts left to re-
port the result of the election was
declared a landslide. His nearest op-
ponent was Roosevelt, Taft polling
but few votes. There is no prob
ability that the remaining precincts
will reduce La Follette's lead.
Stormy weather in the western
and southwestern parts of the state
reduced the vote materially from the
total it was expected to reach. The
western part of the state, called the
slope country" did not develope it's
expected strength for Roosevelt and
went for La Toilette by wide mar
gin.
La Follette's great strength was
evidenced in the eastern tier of coun-
ties where Cass county gave him a
plurality of 1900 and Grand Forks
county plurality of 1000. Cass
county had been about conceded to
Roosevelt. Pembina county was the
only valley county to be carried by
Roosevelt, his plurality there being
about 800.
The force of the La Toilette move
ment has been so great that not on
ly did ne win himself but carried
every candidate on his ticket anu
will enter the Chicago convention
with not only ten delegates pledged
but with ten men who are working
heart and soul for him. Thomas
Marshall, for national committee
man, will probably have plurality
that will equal La Follette's.

Senator La Toilette said, "That's
better, even than l expected. 1 am

OF appointing a campaign manager TO CO.
