Because a big dog jumped out
Of the tall grass onto the track of
the Duluth, Winnipeg & Pacific
railroad and Andrew Mack was
thrown from speeder, the railroad
may have to pay $4,000.
Mack was riding along the track
on velocipede or speeder, as it
is generally called, when the ami
NAL is alleged to have sprung from
the tall timbers and jumped right
into the way Of the vehicle and de-
rallied it. Mack was employed by
the company as a painter, accord
ing to the complaint, and it was
mis- duty to paint switch targets and
other work along the division. He
was permitted to ride on the trains,
hand cars or speeders Of the COM
pany in the execution of his bust
ness.
At the time Of the accident he
was riding with his foreman, whose
name is Fuller, and was travelling
along the track between Falls juno

DIRECT MARKETING Of

A special writer with the <agri-

"A movement has arisen, as a
result Of the tri p through St.

WHAT CHISHOLM EDITOR SAY

Frank G. Harris, publisher OF
the Chisholm Tribune Herald in
his last issue has this to say about
Virginia's boosting spirit:
Virginia is to hold this evening
a For Virginia" banquet which
promises to eclipse anything ever
held in that progressive burg. In
vitations have been sent to the
States leading sons. The slogan
adopted by the boosters of Vir-
ginia is DO it for Virginia-and
do it now" Confidence bpgets
confidence and confidence backeC
up by intelligent action is what
makes a live town out of a dead
one. Virginians are entitled to the
admiration Of all citizens of all
other range towns for their splen-
did community spirit. It's good to
live in a real live town among live
boosters.

Powerful Lecture
by BOst0nian on
Christian Science
Judge Clifford P. Smith, C. S. B., Delivered Powerful AID
dress Yesterday Afternoon on Christian Science
Large Crowd Turned Out to Hear Noted Boston Jurist Who
Is Member of Official Church Board
President Emery of City Commission introduced Speaker
at C rpheum Theatre to Fargo Audience

1t vas @ powerful lecture on Chris
Smith, c. S. B., Of Boston, delivered
yesterday afternoon at the Orpheum
theatre. The eminent Boston jurist
vas greeted by a Acknowledgements
ative audience which seemed highly in
sympathy with the thought and spirit
of his discourse.
Judge Smith is a member of the
board of lectureship of the mother
church in Boston Of the First Church
of Christ, Scientist, and, as an author
lied speaker of the spreading cult
which had it's origin in the western
world, explained many things about
the teachings of Christian Science
which to many have not been plain
hitherto. His audience was composed
of many from outside the local Chris
ton Science church.
Pres. H. F. Emery of the board of
city commissioners introduced the
speaker, not as a member of the faith
himself, but as the titular head of the
city. Mr.. Emery in welcoming the
Bostonian said:
Evenings Remarks.
For many years it has been the
custom for some representative of the
executive department of the city to
extend greetings to any one who may
interest the city on special occasions.
This city appreciates and greets
not only the great conventions and
delegations but individuals who hap
pen to pass this way. b
THE city of Fargo is peculiarly
situated in that it is the center of a
very large territory and during the
course Of twelve months e~ntertains a
great variety Of organizations. She
is known as the big little city.
She has a great number of progress
sive ~people-people who are ever
ready for the truth and seekers of
knowledge that tends to build in this
world, rather than to tear down.
I'VE have with us today a gentle
mar who is a representative of n of
the organizations which is securing
the approval of the world; who brings
us the truth hat was taught more
than 1000 years ago by a mar who
vas heard by thousands but who was
understood by very few He was a
great light and his teachings, if un-
derstood, would bring peace and JOY

GENEROUS CORPORATIONS.

The three companies hat control
the transportation facilities of New
York city appear to be striving for a
record in the matter of benefits for
their employees. Early in the present
year these companies voluntarily in
creased by 10 per cent the pay of their
motormen and conductors and an
nounced the starting of a system of
stores which would furnish all m
ployes with food at actual cost. Two
Of these stores have proved so sue
cessful that others are to follow at
once. The companies fitted W the
stores at their own expense and pay
all the expenses of running them. Food
OF the very best is purchased at
wholesale in large quantities and re-
tailed at from 3 to 10 cents a pound
or quart below the price charged else
where. If any profit is made on one
article, the price of another is lowered
to even things up. If there is any loss
at the end of the month, the mpan
makes it good. BY his system some
thing like 500 a year is saved to each
family, and where the w~age-earner re-
ceives from 5000 to $1,000 a year, this
is a big item.
Another feature of the welfare work
of these corporations is the pension
system by which retired employees are
paid from SIS to $40 a month, and it
employs a capable man to look after
these pensioners to see that they have
comfortable homes and do not lack
personal care in case of illness. Then
a medical inspection bureau is main
tained at the sole expense of the COM
panies. -Four doctors are kept busy
all the time and when an employee re-
ports sick he is at once examined and
cannot be called upon for work again
until the physician certifes that he
has entirely recovered.
There are other things these COM
panies do for the good of their men,
such as club and reading rooms, lunch
counters, etc, all Of which is proof
that a contented and healthy work
man is a real asset to any employer
and that this is fully realized in the
cases here given.

WORLD GRAIN SHORTAGE.

Since early this summer The Forum
has, from time to time, predicted that
there would be e world shortage In
the grain supply this year, n that,
although the farmers Of North Dakota
might not get a bumper crop, the pric-
es should be good. The Forum believes
the prices for grain at the present
time are lower than conditions war
rant.
In this issue will be found a state
ment from Northwest Farmstead, that
there is a world shortage in grain to
the extent Of 10 per cent under nor
NAL. The Farmstead further states
that the northwest, and not the great
grain markets Of the world, should be
able, this year., to control the price Of
grain.
If The Farmstead is right in it's first
conclusion, regarding the world short
age, the latter conclusion undoubtedly
is correct.
Last year there were immense crops
throughout the world, and there was
a big hold-over from last year in the
worlds g~ranaries. 1t Is because of the
hold-over that the spectators have
been holding down the price Of grain
this year.
But, if the farmers of the northwest
are able to hold their grain to any
great extent, it is the opinion Of The
Forum that before another crop is
harvested, they will practically dictate
the prices.
With the abolition of the tariff wall
on grains, the Canadian northwest and
the American northwest are practical
~ on a parity. and should work to-
gether. 1t is this entire district
that is meant, in speaking of the
northwest.
