Meridian ROAD
TO Be INSPECTED
Party Will Tour Entire Dis
tance-To Pass Through
North Dakota.

D. E. Colph, vice president Of the
Meridian Road association, and Col
onel Westergard, vice president of the
National Good Roads assertion, are
to make an inspection Of the Meridian
road from San Antonio, Texas, to
Winnipeg, Man. They begin the tour
at San Antonio Monday morning.
The trip brings them through
Grand Forks and other sections of
North Dakota. The schedule for the
journey through this state has not
been formulated as yet, owing to the
fact that the South Dakota schedule
Is not ready. Just as soon as the sec.
rotary of the North Dakota branch
of the association knows when they
will enter this state. the schedule can
be made.
The inspection tour promises to be
of great benefit to the road. A mo-
ton picture photographer, an Asso-
ciated Press representative and CORE
spondents of other papers and several
magazine writer's are to accompany
Mr.. Colp and Mr.. Westergard.
The plan Is to put the Meridian
road on the map" as lever before. and
make 1t possible to secure national
assistance for keeping it up and i'm
proving it. A map of the road and
each county 1t passes through will be
made. County delegations are asked
to meet the party at each county line,
so thai the exact mileage can be de-
termined.

Magnificent Spectacle is Sells-Floto and Buffalo Bill
Parade; Lonely Little Girl Who Staid at Home
Surely Missed Splendid Treat This Morning

This is a story intended for the lit
tie girl who couldn't come down town
this morning, the little girl who
dreamed of all the things she might
have seen, who sobbed a bit as the
hands Of the old clock on the mantel
reached the hour Of 1880. For she
was at home, home where all was
quiet and still and lonely, where the
streets outside echoed " a sound
dreams could come-and dreams are
so vague.
Only dreams, and downtown, down
where childish voices shouted and
laughed, where mothers and fathers
smiled with reminiscent happiness,
down there the glittering parade of
the Sells-Floto Circus and Buffalo Bill
(himself) was passing, the bands were
playing.
But the Little Girl was at home, at
home and lonely. Her dolls, her play
things, uninteresting, dull on this day
of days, seemed to stare at her and to
mock her. She was at home-and
you of the keen Imagination, depict
the heartbreak Of 1t all If you can
And so, for the Little Girl Who Stayed
at Home this story is written, that she

it all through the eyes Of another.
A long wait-or rather it seemed
long to those expectant ones who lined
the streets, for they had come far
ahead Of the hour. A long wait and
then-a craning of heads which re-
sembled the lifting of a wave. A
shout, an edging forward. Then, far
down the street there came the glitter,
the golden reflections of the circus
wagons, the sound OF a band. Nearer
nearer '',
And there in front Of it all, laugh
ing, bowling, waving his hat now and
with the happiness of it all, was Buff
falo Bill himself, leading the parade,
just as an honor to this city. And

side of his spider trap. when some lit
tie fellow ran out into the street, just

PRIVATE OWNERSHIP DEFENDED
Northwestern Telephone Company
Official. Claims Company Gives
Best Service In the World.

Private ownership Of telephone
lines was defended Friday afternoon
by Ray F. Lands of Minneapolis, di-
vision contract agent of the North
western Telephone company, who ada
dressed forty of the employees Of the
local exchange at the Commercial
club.
Mr., Lands claimed that public
ownership was less efficient and more
expensive than the present system in
use in this country. To prove the
point he quoted figures from other
countries. notably Canada, showing
that under government ownership the
cost of service had increased 20 ~per
cent.
The Bell Telephone company, ac-
cording to the speaker, furnishes the
cheapest, n most efficient telephone
service in the world. There Is no
advantage to be gained therefore, he.
pointed out, from government owner-
ship.

Prominent Life Insurance
Company Official Pleased

MEMBER OF AUTO
PARTY ON FRIDAY
First Opportunity to Get
Real Close to States
Resources.

T.. P. Marshall, first vice president
OF the Union Central Life Insurance
company of Cincinnati, O., is in Grand
Forks, visiting M. F. Murphy, who is
In charge of the company's loan bust
ness for the northern half of the state.
Mr.. Marshall and A. p. Colwell of
Fargo, state insurance manager for
Murphy on the automobile our yes
terday.
Next week MI. Marshall, Mr.. Col
we'll and Mr.. Murphy will go to Inter-
national Falls, Mimi, where they will
spend a week fishing, They have
chartered a special launch for their
outing.
Yesterday MI. Marshall got his first
real glimpse of North Dakota He
has passed through the state several
times, but until yesterday he has
had an opportunity to inspect
conditions. Yesterday he saw one of
the finest sections of the state.
A Great State.
. North Dakota Is q great state" he
said at Aneta, where the party stopped
for supper. This is the first oppor-
tunity I have had to inspect conditions
In North Dakota, and I certainly have
enjoyed myself. The crop conditions
are excellent and the country is beau
tiful. There Is every indication that
you will ave a fine year"
The Union Central Life Insurance
company, Of which Mr. Marshall is
vice president, has more money in
vested in North Dakota than any 9th
er company. At present there are
over $5,75O,O00 in this state.
M. F. Murphy, who has represented
the concern in this section of the
state for many years. Is the second
Oldest man connected with the loau
department.
Have Faith in State.
"You see, we have faith in North
Dakota" Mr.. Marshall continued. II
have wanted to come up here before
to look at the country n see If all
the good things my friend Murphy
has told me were true. This is the
first opportunity I have had, however,
n I must say the trip has been a
revelation to me. Murphy has been
too conservative"
Sees Banking Benefits.
Mr.. Marshall believes the new
banking law will be a benefit to fnan-
cial conditions, but he is of the opin-
ion that congress ought to cease its
labors at present.
II think 1t would be a good thing
If congress would stop banging away
at business. There is a feeling among
the business men and fanciers down
u way that they are going too far
with the antitrust legislation. They
feel that the Sherman law itself is
enough without adding others to it,
but Mr.. Wilson doesn't think so.

that he might get a better look at
him! How he smiled! For Buffalo
Bill was as happy as those who look

all the other examples of zoo life.
Not a age was closed, Little Girl

was looking at them.
And then the elephants! The big
elephants, the little ones. and the

mouse-like eyes twinkling as though
they got as much amusement out Of
the parade as the spectators them
selves. The camels, too, wobblfng
along, their humps swaying, and pref

atop them.
And then the Hyneys. But you've

it is a brand new animal, just created,
and five specimens have beef given in
