This State.

Progressive republicans Of North
Dakota are united and gaining ground
according to Senator A. ]. Gronna and
H. N. Tucker, chairman of the execu-
tive committee Of the progressive re-
publican league says the Minneapolis
Journal. Senator Gronna passed
through Minneapolis on his way to
Washington for the extra session of
congress. and was accompanied this
far by Mr.. Tucker. They talked over
the meeting of the progressive repub-
There is very little friction as to the
position the league has TAKEN" said
Mr.. Tucker.
II talked with a state SENATOR"
said Senator Gronna. who told me
that he talked with 10 members of
the legislature before its adjournment
and every one of them declared in ia
vor of standing by the progressive re-
publican cause. It. vas stronger at
the end of the session than at the be-
ginning"
Senator Gronna has been notified
that he will have q place on the COM
mittee on Indian affairs. This will be
in addition to the posts he already oc-
cupies, on the committees on agricul-
ture. immigration, conservation and
expositions.
The North Dakota senator, who is
q champion Of the interests of the
farmer in tariff legislation, said that
he does not expect to see much injury
to agricultural interests by the demo-
cratic tariff bill. II had a telegram
before leaving" he said. telling me
that the house bill will reduce the tar
III on wheat from rs to 10 cents a
bushel. and put -four on the free list.
The 10 cent duty is ample protection
for wheat and In prohibitory except
In seasons Of a very short crop on this
side of the line. As to the -four duty
which l think is 31.25 a barrel now,
there 10 some question whether free
flour does no tend to put wheat on an
export basis. The present tariff is
supposed to be compensatory, and
with wheat at 10 cents a bushel -four
should be 30 cents a barrel"
Senator Gronna. who is a native of
Halltngdal. Norway. spoke Friday at

submit herewith the annual report on
the work of the public health labora-
tory acting in the capacity Of milk
inspector for the city of Grand Forks
for the year ending February IS. 1913.
I am also adding a report giving a
brief summary of the results OF the
archaeological water analyses made
during the anne period.
Milk and Cream Analyses.
During the year ending February
IS. 1913. we collected and analyxed
22l samples Of crea from dealers in
the city of Grand Forks. Fifty-one Of
the ream samples were from dairy
men supplying cream to the ice cream
pies were from, the regular datrymen
in Grand Forks. OF these 10 SAM
pies of cream a%nalyzcd. IS or 80 per
cent. were found to contain less than
the required 20 per cen Of butter fat.
OF the 31S samples of milk that we're
analyzed. 40, or approximately 12 per
cent were found to contain less than
3.5 Of butter fat and 20, or 90 per
cent. were found to contain more than
100000 bacteria per cubic centimeter.
l am taking the count Of 100000 per
permissible in a good milk coming
from an inspected dairy although the
city OF Grand Forks has no ordinance
pertaining to this point. Only three
arrests were made during the ear for
selling cream which was below stand
ard in butter fat. 1t has been our
policy in the past to report to the
dealers the results of the analysis
and. If a subsequent analysis within a
week showed an Improvement. no
legal action was taken. 1t seems.
however. that this policy is not n
tirelS satisfactory because the per-
the standard set for the fat contained
in cream ia altogether too large. The
final summary of the work during the
YEAR shows clearly that more stringent
measures will have to be adopted in
the future.
Psychological Water Analyses.
4 total of l57 bacterioloeical water
analyses were made during the year.
According to these analyses, the raw
water contained an average of 242l
bacteria per cubic centimeter and the
uttered water contained an average Of
S1.i bacteria per cubic centimeter. 1t
appears. therefore. that the hitter
throughout the year gave an average
bacterial removal Of 97.6S per cent. A.
total Of 631 Observation-Disclosures sam.
pies was tested for the presence Of B.
coli and the results show that 20 or
12.5 per cent of these samples gave a
positive test. This is fairly satisfac-
tory but. according to the contract
requirements. not over 10 per cent Of
the one.cubic-centimeter samples
should give a positive test for B.
coli. The following table gives a brief
summary of the averages for the in.
dividual months:

Little Rock, Sept. 30.--W. H. Harvey, of Monte Ne, better known as Coin" Harvey, candi- date for Congress in the Third District, is still deeply interested in the money question, and de- lights to discuss the subject to which he has devoted much care ful study. A friend who has been talking with him says:
 If you talk with Harvey about his silver views in 1893-6, he will convince you that the great ad- vertisement gold got in those days is what has made the worlds phenomenal production of it since. The production was some thing over hundred million per year and now it is nearly five hundred million per year. He will tell you that had it not been for that campaign the army of prospectors looking for gold, would not have so suddenly been enlarged, seeking gold in all parts of the world. And he will also show that the increase in the volume of m tallic money brought rising prices and the needed relief"
