cANADA's HUGE GRAIN BINS
Port Arthur Paper 10 Psevsd at the
Mention Of Kansas City Elevators.

From the Pors Arthur tcanada, Evening Chronicle
Kansas City gains the attention Of
the New York Evening Post and Is
given five inches OF space in that ad-
mirable newspaper by reason Of in
creasing the capacity Of q grain ele-
vator there. The Evening Post says:
when the additions and alterations
to Its huge grain elevator at Kansas
City now under way are completed the
Missouri Pacifc-lron Mountain rail-
road will have one Of the largest
plants OF It's kind In the world"
The present capacity OF the Kansas
City product Ia one million bushels.
when Il gains It's promised stature
and becomes "one Of the largest In
the world IL will have q capacity of
2,133. 900 bushels.
At the mention Of grain elevators
the twin ports at.the head CT the lakes
prick up their ears and take notice.
The name OF Lloyd-George at a Tory
garden party. or of President Wilson
at bankers convention catches at
tention no quicker than the word "ele-
vator" in the hearing Of a Port Arthur
Fort William man. Toronto prides
itself on it's churches; Pittsburgh
specializes on millionaires; Chicago
has its pork and Boston its pork and
beans-as for us. we rise to fame on
the bins OF our elevators. and he who
says zone OF the largest" about any
old -million-bushel outfit in Mis-
sburi must withdraw the statement or
name the place and weapons.
II the Evening Post had said "one
OF the largest in Missouri" or in the
general but expressive American
phrase had said some elevator" we
wouldn't have minded It so much. but
when 1t describes this stunted Mis-.
souri, receptacle as "one OF the largest
grain elevators in the world" then 1t
Is time to kick. Why. two-million-
bushel elevators are so common here
abouts that the secretary Of the board
Of trade does not point them out to
distinguished visitors. Nothing could
show clearer than that what we think
OF two.million-bushel elevators.
When we have pointed to the $780,.
0o0tushel c. N. r. elevator and the
1900. .O00-bushel c. p. r. elevator and
the $500. .000-bushel G. T. p. elevator;
then to the $500. .00o-bushel Dominion
Government elevator which is only
the first unit of what Is to be a 80.
million.bushel plant, by that time the
air Is SO full of millions that the
listener would be annoyed II we both.
cred him with mention Of mere two.
million-bushel affair. So we Just lump
the balance together and describe the
grand total Of 45-million-bushel capac.
ity already standing at the head Of
the lakes.
Upon the basis upon which Kansas
City got five inches Of space In the
Evening Post we claim a complimen.

bruises about the legs and body. The
car skidded and was overturned. Ed
ward Peterson, driver, was uninjured.
A special session of the grand jury
has been called for Dec. / to consider
cases of Importance to come before the
December term Of Caledonia county
court. Among the cases likely to be
presented to the grand jury are those
of Hosea Ball, accused of the murder
of Mrs. Harl~ Woods, and Bert Mar
telle. alias Bert Blake. charged with
bigamy. The question of the right of
the present judges to hold court even
if reappointed to office by Governor
Fletcher, is of peculiar interest and is
causing considerable thought among
the legal fraternity. It is possible
that court will be opened by the
assistant judges and adjourned to await
the action of the Legislature.
After wandering three days in the
woods without food Or sleep Frank
Roberts was arrested at Victory
Thursday afternoon, charged with
