ICY PAVENENTS
CAUSES TUNBLES
Navigation of Streets At
tended With Real Diff
Guilty Today.

Horse traffic on tho downtown paw
ed streets of Grand Forks was prac-
tically impossible today on account
OF, the fine slcct and rain which froze
on tho paving, causing the unfortu-
nate euuines to slip and slide in a
manner which suggested citizen re-
turning from the Fast side at II p. M.
Fly noon most drivers had given up
the attempt TO drive heavy loads over
the pavement.
Even tho sobercst Of pedestrians
found navigation far from easy and
made their way by mincing steps. as
though they were walking on eggs.
Every few moments IN the down
town district could be heard the "ker
some citizen l,adf taken an Involuntary
seat on the pavement, and frequently
his heartfelt remarks on the subject
could be heard some distance away.

Effect on State Rates.
1f the North Dakota commission
adopts the interstate commerce COM
missions new rates, Grand Forks
shippers will get lower rates to pract-
ically every point in the state. This
will bring about the reduction that
the local Commercial club has sought.
Under this plan. the rates for 25.

Grand Forks to Hannah would he de-
creased. while the lo0-pound rate
would be increased.
Packages from Grand Forks. weigh
Ing 25, so and 75 pounds to Walhal-

would remain the same.
All rates to Pe,nbna. Linton and

+ Northwestern Rates.
r The new interstate rates from ST.

32O miles, will be as follows: e5c for
25' pounds: $1.10 for so pounds: s1.6I
for as pounds and $500 for 100
pounds.
| IL these rates arc made the North
Dakota intra-state tariffs. the rate.
from Grand Forks to Williston, a dis.
tance of Sl4 miles. would be tho

The difference in the location of the
two cities in sub-blocls accounts fo,
this. The rates. however. would be
considerably lower than the prcscn,
