DEFENDING FREE TOLLS
E. C. Plummer of Bath, Me-, Refers
to Exemption in British
Treaty of 1915.

In defense of the provision OF the Pan
anna canal act which would grant Ameri-
can coastwise vessels free passage
through the canal, Edward C. Plummer.
an admiralty lawyer of Bath. Me. in an
interview today cited a precedent which,
he declared. has great significance in the
present controversy. Mr.. Plummer said:
Those who are so anxious to adopt
the British construction of our treaty, SO
far as it affects free tolls Of American
coast sting vessels. discreetly ignore the fact
thai our treaty made with England IN
1878. giving equal privileges to British
and American vessels in American ports,
always has been construed as permitting
exactly the same exemption to coasting
vessels of the United States as Congress
has given to American coastinS vessels
which NAV use the Panama canal.
The commercial treaty with Great
Britain here referred to provides that no
higher or other duties or charges shall pc
imposed in any Of the ports OF the United
States ON British vessels than those pay
able in the same ports by vessels OF the
United States Yet British vessels. like
American vessels engaged in foreign
trade, are compelled to pay pilotage
charges whenever they enter American
ports while American coasting vessels are
not compelled to pay pilotage charges.
Pilot Charge Parallel Case.
THE American coasting vessel is ex-
empt from compulsory pilot charges in
our ports exactly as it is proposed to
exempt them from canal toll charges in the
canal. yet Englan- has never raised any
question on this point. because England
always mas recognized that our coasting
vessels are engaged in a business into
which her vessels cannot enter, and that.
therefore. any exemption of American
coasting vessels from charges imposed
upon vessels engaged in the foreign trade
in no way discriminateS against such for
eign-trade vessels: because the coasting
vessels are in trade exclusively their
own as Independent of foreign-trade YES
sci competition as are the railroads Of
the country.
Having acquiesced for half century
in the principle that we have right
to exempt American coasting vessels
from charges which we do impose upon
vessels engaged in the foreign trade,
how is England to maintain that this
is our right no longer. when the language
of the canal treaty is not SO strong OF
comprehensive as the language of our
commercial treaty with Great Britain,
and properly must be construed having
regard to the practical construction by
Great Britain and the United States of
the language of the commercial treaty
which was in existence at the time the
canal treaty was written. and, pre-
sumably. was in the minds of the treaty
makers at that time.

STATE FORESTER
BARRET IS DEAD

Devils Lake., n. D., Feb. 20-With
four score and two years of activity
composing his life work, thirty.onc of
which We're spent in Ramsey county,
the death of W. w. Barrett of Churchs
Ferry occurred Wednesday at the home
of his son, George Barrett. of Lakota.
Old age is attributed as the cause of
his demise.
Few men in Ramsey county or the
state at large, were better known than
W. W. Barrett, who resided on his beau
tiful farm east Of the Ferry. For ten
years he held the position as state for
roster and is responsible for everything
that has been done along this line in
the state, being the first and only per.
son who held the position from 1891 to
1901.
At his farm east of the Ferry he con-
structed "a sylvaton pyramid which was
one of the objects Of interest of this sec!
ton of the state. 1t is claimed this is
the only pyramid made of wholly gla-
ciated rocks to be found in any part of
the entire earth. 1t was seen. studied
and fully commended from year to year
by a vast number of able biologists and
students from every part of the world,
Striated rocks Of which this
and others were made. together with
over 20, 200 more glaciated specimens.
We're gathered by Mr.. Barrett from year
to year in Ramsey county. since his
arrival here in 1883.
The funeral was held Friday at La.
aSota.

dred dollars cash for ten head of pure
bred Polled Angus cattle, was paid last
week by John J. Dawson of Strain, to
the Fischer and Ryan company Of Bott-
ma. Iowa. The purchase is another proof
Of Morton county being the center of
the greatest dairying region in the state.
Mr.. Dawson went east a couple Of
weeks ago and visited the fischer and
Ryan ranch at Bottna. He selected
seven heifers, two cows and one bull
calf. paying nearly $500 a piece for the
two cows, a fancy price for the bull
calf and over 5000 for the heifers.
The men whom he purchased the cat
tie from are the largest breeders Of the

Citizens Celebrate Event With
Sort Of Municipal
Ill. Jubilee

t1Iazelton, n. d., Feb. 2%O--Thursday
evening of last week was a very eXcit-
able one in Hazelton and perhaps mark
cd the most important epoch in her his
tory since the townsite was plated.
The fire engines arrived that evening
which In itself was enough to cause
plenty of excitement. but the same train
which brought the fire apparatus also
brought in the instruments for the Haz-
elton band. which made the younger ele-
ment overflow with a mass of curiosity
and eagerness. Then to cap the climax
the electric, light plant was started and
the lights in the Hazelton Mercantile
store turned on, throwing the establish
ment of that concern into a brilliance Of
light that could not be surpassed any
where, and which brought in a throng
Of people bent on an inspection tour.
What with all the people crowding in
to the store, combined with the bril-
lance Of the lights. it made the place
look like a Fifth Avenue style shop on
q sale day. 1t vas good for business
too. because whenever you get the
crowd you are sure to sell goods, and to
get the evening crowd nothing is a bet
ter drawing card than to have the store
brilliantly lighted.
The engine seems to run as smooth
as a watch and with what lights have
been turned on-those at the livery barn,
the Hazelton Mercantile store and the
lower floor Of the Andrus Hotel-there
was absolutely no sign of a flicker. If
the engine pulls a load Of three hum
bred lights with the same smOothness,
giving the same brilliancs and steadi-
ness that has been demonstrated by the
smaller load, the plant will be more
than satisfactory to the promoters Of
the Hazelton Electric Light company.
The heavy street cables which are to
carry the burden of the electricity have
been put up on the poles and by the
end Of this week it is expected that a
good many of the business places will
be connected up and the plant will then
be started and run every night.
