DENIES RIGHT Of
STATE COMMISSION
Attorney for Telephone Co.
Declares Railroad Board
is Without Authority.
CASE
AGAIN IN ISSUE
Contended That Physical
Connection Question Can
not be Considered.

A brief denying the jurisdiction OF
the state railway and warehouse COM
mission in the suit instituted by the
citizens of Berthold to compel the in
stallation of physical connections by
the Farmers Telephone company OF
Berthold, and the Northern Telephone
company of Minot was filed today by
Tracy Bangs. attorney for h Ameri-
can Telephone company for this state.
The contention set forth in this brief
is that in the absence of any act OF
the legislature. giving it authority over
telephone lines, the commission has
no right to assume this authority.
The Farmers Telephone company
of Berthold is an independent con-
Germ. The Northern Telephone COM
pany of Minot. which is a Bell COM
pany. has refused to connect with the.
Berthold concern, thus restricting 1t.
to local service.
A recent decision of h Wisconsin
railway and warehouse commission in
a SIMILAR case holds that the commits
sion has power to order the connec
lions.
A copy of the brief filed by Mr..
Bangs will he served on Coyle & Her
| igstad of Minot. attorneys for the
, Ber,hold people, and a date for the

mission.

SUPPORTS plan
Writes Letter to North d.
kota Methodists Urging
Cash For Wesley.

Bishop Naphtali Luccock, who has
official supervision of the Methodist
churches of North Dakota, has sent
the following letter to every pastor of
the denomination in the state:
Dear Brother:-You will remem-
Der that our North Dakota conference
at its session of 1912 heartily Endorsed
the project of increasing the endow-
ment of Wesley college. fixing the goal
at $4,000 Let US give this matter
immediate n continuous right Of
way until the goal is attained. Some
generous gifts have ben mada to this
fund and a number of the friends of
the college are favorably considering
the same. Without doubt. by hearty
work. the undertaking a be closed
up in the near future. Is it too much
to hope that by 1914 we can finish the
enterprise and be ready for the next
forward step along educational lines?
1.-THE conference has made a good be-
ginning in this educational enterprise.
! We have now 100000 in grounds and
quite 100000 in productive endow-
ment. The proposed 100000 would
provide additional buildings. meet
some other pressing needs. and leave
$150.0O0 for endowment. This would
place the college on a SUBSTANTIAL
working basis and assure its growing
future. Excellent work has been sus-
tanned by the college at the normal
school at Valley City and similar work
is planned for the normal school at
Minot. The college is working most
tremendously with our state institu-
lions and is gradually realizing its
great ideal of large and vital religious
influence and service at the education
al centers of the commonwealth. The
imperative and commanding thing he
fore the Methodism of North Dakota
1T present is the endowment of Wesley
college. Let US arise n do it.
"Sincerely yours,
-"Naphtali Luccock."
