MINES COAL At SMALL COST
National Government Also Pays More
Wages to Employees Than
Private Concerns.

Mining Ignite coal for the Willis
ton reclamation project the United
States government has successfully
demonstrated it's ability to handle the
mining question by producing coal at
a cost below that of private mine own
ers and it also is paying better wages
to miners. In handling the mining
question in the Williston project the
United States government has created
conditions in marked contrast with
those existing in the Eastern coal
mining districts.
Expert coal miners, and practically
all the men employed by the govern
ment are skilled in their work, receive
from 81 to S. a day, working on the
tonnage basis, which is remarkable in
contrast with the average wage in the
United States of So a day for coal
miners. In addition to better wages
the government has created better
conditions for it's miners. They have
their shower bath, private lockers,
bunk rooms for single men and a
restaurant where the miners can Sc
cure meals at 25 cents each
AS against an average cost in pri-
vate mines of about $1.50 a ton the
United States is mining it's coal at
about $1.30 and Engineer w. S.
Arthur, in charge OF the project, an
ticipates that ultimately the cost Of
mining will be reduced to 81. De-
livered at the project station coal
mined by private owners would cost
the government about $3.50 a ton.
By doing the work itself the govern
ment is getting better service at less

LAND BRINGS HIGH PRICES
Farmers in Dry States Are Looking
for Homes.

More new settlers will be attracted
to Northwestern Minnesota and North
Dakota this "a as a result of the
splendid showing made in raising corr
than from any other single cause.
Red river valley land men interested
in bringing in new residents to that
district expect to see a new record OF
immigrants established this season
and next spring.
Discouraged by their seasons work
without reward farmers of the Central
states are coming to the Northwest.
They are seeing fine crops Of grain
and the corn is attracting their atten-
ton particularly. Corntields are we'll
matured in practically all sections of
the state. The farmers have gathered
their seed for next year in greater
quantity than ever before and the
prospects are that next yea will see
a greatly increased corn acreage.
Land values are at a high point as
a result of the demand and farmers
are selling at from $50 to SS5 an acre.
The new farmers are not driving out
the old ones, but are in most instances
purchasing land that is owned by non
residents.

Benton, Ill.,. Sept. pa race riot
between American and Polish miners
was begun on the town square here
as a result Of the double murder Of
ElWell Hutchins and Quincy Drum
monds, Who were killed by a band
OF drunken miners while returning
from a Polish dance, where they had
furnished the music.
The disturbance assumed such pro-
portions that Mayor Espy swore in
twenty-five extra police and sent for
the sheriff of Franklin county.
The mayor then mounted a box in
the center of the square and sought
t. pacify the Americans. In spite Of
his address serious trouble was
threatened.
twenty-five foreigners who appear
ed on the square were severely beat
en- and pursued to their homes. Every
other foreigner who was found in the
streets received similar treatment.
Fifteen Polish miners were arrested
and are being held pending an inves-
tigation into the double murder.
Three other miners implicated by
the testimony of the arrested men at
the %coroner's inquest are being sought
by an armed posse.
The story of the murder was
brought to Benton by Harmon Wyant.
the third member of the party OF
musicians, who escaped with a bullet
wound in the arm.
His unconscious form and the
bodies of his dead companions were
found on the road by a party OF
automobilists, who stopped when
their machine ran over a victim in
the gutter.

GRAIN CHECKS CIRCULATED
Used as Medium of Exchange by
North Dakota Farmers.

The residents of the section around
Edgeley are not worrying over what
President Wilson and congress will
do with the currency bill. During
the periods when more circulating
medium is required North Dakotans
grow and manufacture their own.
In the fall of the year when money
is most needed the farmers are haul
ing grain to elevators. Some of them
sell direct, others take the elevator re-
ceipt checks and pay bills to mer-
chants and others direct with these,
just as they would with regular checks
or with currency. This has solved
the problem Of an increased circulat-
ing medium when it is most required.
One grain check was recently traced
to Edgeley and was found to have
passed through the hands of seven
different dealers before it was finally
cashed and the transactions with it
were just as clearly handled as with
ready cash.

BAGGAGE CASE POSTPONED
Commission Will Await Interstate
Commerce Decision.

The North Dakota railroad commits
sion has postponed indefinitely the
proposed hearing on excess baggage
rates in North Dakota and it also will
delay the hearing on express rates,
both of which were scheduled for
Grand Forks at the meeting opening
Sept. 80.
This action follows the lead of the
Minnesota commission, which also has
postponed it's hearing on baggage
rates, pending the outcome of the
hearings fixed for New York by the
interstate commerce commission on
such rates.
The p~ostponement is based on the
fact that express companies, seeking
to comply with the Interstate com
merce commissions ruling that new
rates must be established on Oct. Is,
cannot present their cases on the
state rates at this time
