little lows

A short visit to Litchville last week
by representative Of the Times
Record was a pleasant hour with the
best people On earth, in one of the
best business towns in the world and
every moment Of the time spent there
was full of surprises, the amount Of
business the tewl is doing. There
probably is not another town in the
state of the same size where as many
teams may be seen sn any afternoon
as at Litchville. Az one goes about
town it is noticeable that all of the
merchants are busy every moment of
the day, and We learned that most Of
the merchants in that place have ac-
quired a fair share Of the worlds
goods as the result of their activity
in business circles.
Several of the boys, including
Banker Hanson of the First National
and Banker Hedland of the Farmers
State are little uneasy as they are
about to visit Valley City to be initiat-
ed into the hidden mysteries of a GER
tain lodge and rumors have reached
them that some of the boys, who pro-
fess to be friends are lying in wait
for them with some mysterious instru-
ment of torture, but for all of that
they say they will be here to ride the
goat as soon as Rev. L. G. Moultrie
has him properly groomed.
We were informed that new walks
were to be laid all over town this year
and this will do wonders in beautify-
ing the place. It is always genuine
pleasure to drive over the famous
Litchville country.

Base Ball for Valley
City That Looks Good
HERE'S WHERE We, GET WHAT
WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR
BOOST IT ALONG. ....
(By D. w. Clark

A feeling of regret has been strong
ly manifest in the hearts of a great
many of the base ball enthusiasts in
Valley City for. SINE time.
1t has been generally understood
that our association has been finan-
cially embarrassed and would not un-
dertake to organize and get together
professional team this year because
of failure to make both ends meet
during the past. ..
1t is true Valley City has the repu-
tation Of having defeated all comers
and it seems tough to think We will
be unable to call together the good old
bunch that knew so well how to de-
liver the goods. We have however
MeGary and Leahy the backbone of
the past and there has come into our
midst enough good players to make up
what we think may prove to be the
strongest amatuer aggre cation ever
organized in the state. The new play
ers are willing and anxious to play
and with the assistance of all good
patriotic fans and the cooperation of
the old association who own the
grounds and equipment we are assur-
ed that Valley City will maintain its
reputation and will put up game
worthy of our patronage and encour-
agement. This will help the old asso-
citation to get out of debt and will keep
the baseball fire from dying out.
Everybody boost.

New Time Card for n.
P. Trains After April |
PASSENGER SERVICE WILL CON-
Meet WITH TRAINS SEVEN AND
EIGHT At MANDAN.

A number OF changes important to
the travelling public are to take place
in the Northern Pacific train sched-
ule after April 27.
Beginning at that date trains No.
and will carry no day coaches but
solid Pullmans from Chicago to the
coast. As heretofore, no local service
will be given.
The new schedule will cause No. 5
to leave st. Paul later than it does
now At present it leaves that city at
9:15 a. m., while under the new sched-
ule it will leave there at 11:1O a. M,
arriving at Bismarck at about II p. NJ.
This will make a faster running time
to the coast and will make 1t but
one hour and 35 minutes slower than
No. l. There will be no change in
the schedule Of Nos. I, 2, 8 and
4, Nos. 4 and 5 will carry sleepers
between St. Paul and Tacoma.
A tariff arrangement has been
made with the North Western line
whereby a day coach and tourist
will be run from Chicago to st. Paul
to connect with No. 5, and will bs
made into that train. The day esaeh
will be carried back in train No. 6,
while the tourist sleeper will 10 re-
turned in No 2, and will connect with
No. On the NorthwestsrR 1ias for
Chicago. This practically makes Ne.
5 and s through trains to ChieAS0.
Two new trains will also be put sn
between Glendive and Billings Gsiug
west this train will leave Glsldive
at a. m. and coming east wiR leave
Billings at a. Rl., arriving in 4leR-
dive at 4 p. N.

a manner as to tend to produce monop-
oily.
"The requirements for membership
in the Chamber and the careful inves-
tigation Of applicants as now existing
and made are necessary to the MAIN
tenances of the integrity of the trading
in the Chamber There is no evidence
that the Chamber of Commerce, or its
members constitute monopoly in any
respect.
The last portion of the report is
devoted to the evidence regarding
1.-The }Esn;istsy- Cooperative exchange and
it's transactions with the Farmers Ele.
vator company Of Voltaire, N. D., are
dealt with in detail with criticism Of
the way in which the Equity failed to
give accounting and settle for stored
grain until officers of the Voltaire COM
pany had come to Minneapolis for
settlement, failed to get it and then
went before the committee with their
complaint
Barley Shipment to Equity.
The report also takes up the ship
ment of barley to the Equity, testified
to by G.. A. Hageback of Madison,
Mimi, and says:
'rhe record does not disclose any
explanation of this transaction by the
Equity Cooperative exchange and It
does not appear that the committee
directed the attention Of any witnesses
for the exchange to this transaction.
1t appears to have been lost sight of in
the details of the other transaction
which took up greater portion of the
time of the committee. However, it
would seem to be conclusively estab-
lished that the reported sale at 55
cents was never made.
'This was the only shipment made
ny l1S dIulcIS McI Cdulllc a. ElcVd-
tor company of Madison to the Co.
operative exchange, although circu-
lar published by the latter, among a
list headed Some of Our Regular
Shippers appears the Farmers Mer-
camille & Elevator company of Madi-
son, MINI. The manager of this COM
pany testified that he never had au-
thorized such use of his company's
name and strongly objected thereto.
''The Equity Cooperative exchange
is now licensed as grain commission
merchant of Minnesota and is subject
to the jurisdiction of the railroad and
warehouse commission. It's transac-
tions with customers are hardly the
proper subject for legislative investi-
cation, but should be investigated by
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion.''
