Depots for Nymore.

In the last issue of the Nymore In
dependent, the question of depots
and shipping facilities for Nymore is
again brought before. the public by
the publication of the finding of the
state railroad and warehouse COM
mission which held a hearing here
last May.
The report finds as follows:
THAT Nymore is an Incorporated
village in the county. of Beltrami,
and has about 800 inhabitants; and
that its chief support is large saw
mill; that 1t adjoins the city of Be-
midi, a place Of about $500 inhabi-
tants, according to the last census;
that each of the railway companies
has extensive terminals in Bemidji,
sufficient to last and take care of the
business of: that station for a number
OF years to come; that the distance
between the ,depots of the several
companies at Bemidji and the center
Of Nymore is: about $500 feet, and
that large portion Of the people of
Bemidji live as far or even greater
distance from the depots; that the
wagon road between Bemidji and
Nymore, at" the; time Of the hearing,
was very poor. and needed construc-
ton or repairing and the commission
has been advised that immediate
steps, on the part of the city of Be-
midi, will be taken to make a good
road between&the two places. If the
road should remain in bad condi-
ton, or allowed to become out of re-
pair for any great length Of time,
the commission would feel bound to
reconsider it's present decision, and
probably require station facilities to
be established In Nymore.
This proceeding is brought under
Section 2028 of the Revised Laws
Of 1905, which reads:
Every such railroad company
shall provide and maintain at all
villages and cities upon its lines, de-
pots with suitable waiting rooms for
passengers and rooms for storage Of
freight
1T appears in the case under con-
sideration, that ample facilities have
been furnished by railway compan-
les in Bemidji; that there is only a ]
distance Of $500 feet between where
a station would be constructed at
Nymore and the present stations Of
the companies in Bemidji. There is |
only one way, therefore, in which the |
commission can dispose of this case.
and that is to hold that it would be
unreasonable to require the compan-
les, or either of them, 70 build de-
pot and furnish station facilities at
Nymore. .,..s1.s 49,. ~, ~

In comparing wood to see which
kind will do the best in a certain
stove, one should remember that the
colder the weather the faster the
wood will burn. Cold weather
makes a strong draft even in an air
tight stove so that the wood will
burn much faster.

VITAL STATISTICS
AND H|NDRANCES
CLAN ON METHODS OF VITAL
STATISTICS IN U. s.

Colorado Springs, Colo, Sept. "a
The delegates to the meeting this
year Cf The American Public Health
Association, onw taking place in this
city, listened tonight to an address
by DR.. Cressy l.. Wilbur, Chief Sta
tistician of the Division of Vital Sta
t.stics, Bureau of the Census, at
Washington, DR.. Cressy chose as his
subject the hindrances to the extern
sion of uniform methods Of vital
statistics in the United States, and
spoke in part as follows:
Rapid progress is made in the eX-
tension of registration area for births
and deaths and in the securing Of
uniform vital statistics generally, but
we have still much to do in this re-
Spect.
Some people think that all that is
needed is to pass laws requiring the
reporting of deaths, births or mar
riages, and then the matter is settled.
If | should be asked what is the
greatest, the underlying, the every
where present, and so far as our
present experience extends, the in
superable difficulty or hindrance to
the effective registration of vital sta
ustics in the United States, might
reply: Contempt of Law. We may
pass the best possible model laws"
but if the state registrar or the
local health officer fails to enforce
them, or if the social workers, the
physic. an, and the members of the
American Public Health Association
fail to respect them, our work is al
most in vain.
This contempt of law can be over
come only by thorough process of
education. In the registration of

Must Aid Oklahoma.
Tens OF thousands of acres Of In
dian lands in this state are not sub
ject to taxation, due to the treaty and
act of Congress. This fact is
tremendous drawback to the actual
building of good roads in this state.
The government would, in my opin-
ion, compensate Oklahoma for this
great loss if appealed to properly, and
if elected to the senate ! will imme-
diately work to the end of getting a
sufficient appropriation to be distrib-
utei in every county affected by this
uon- taxable Indian land. This causes |
a loss to the state, according to fig |
ures available, of more than half a
million dollars annually. The gov
ernment offered ten thousand dollars
to this state with other states last /
year. but it was peremptorily with
drawn and given to other states be-
cause there was no one to interest |
themselves in the matter. What is !
