seems likely that the 10O-inch refiec-

however, be much more efficient in

Contracts for the new telescope
have just been awarded to j. Bra
shear for the mirrors and other OPP
tical parts, and to Warner & Swasey
for the mounting. The disk for the
principal mirror will be made by the
st. Gobain glass works, in Paris, but
all the grinding and figuring will be
done in this country. The total cost
will be nearly one hundred thousand
dollars. Inasmuch as the instrument
is intended primarily and VIGOROUSLY

benefit, viz, the spectrographic meas

this sum represents very notable
contribution to pure science on the

INTERSTATE COMMERCE

The decision OF the Supreme
Court upholding the power of the
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion to strike down State rates
that discriminate against inter-
state commerce is of vast import
ance to the other business inter-
ests of the country as we'll as
the railroads. And it may be said
that the decision is in accord
with good business. good sense
and good government. AS JUS
tice Hughes, who wrote the opin-
ion. points out. "it was recogniz-
ed at the beginning, the nation
and foreign trade were governed
by many masters. and; where the
interests of the freedom of in
terstate commerce are involved,

they cannot impose any regula-

fy or discriminate against the
regulations of the Federal gov
ernment as to interstate COM
merce. The Supreme Court de-
cision is simply a reaffirmation
of the Constitution. 1t raises no

THIEVES AT HANkINsoN

Thieves recently burglarized
Goldstein & Kulberg's store at
Hankinson and carried away
goods valued at 5000 to $500. The
News says the plunder consisted
of about forty gold watches. a
number of watch charms and
other iewelry. four suits of
clothes, suit cases. hats and other
goods.
The robbers effected an en-
trance by forcing the lock on the
front door, using a stake that had
evidently been taken from the
show grounds wild west show
having given a performance here
during the evening. The daring
of the thieves is shown by the fact
that an electric street light was
burning brightly within dozen
feet of the door.
The robbers left no clue and it
is hardly likely that they will be
apprehended although the police
authorities of all adjoining towns
were notified as soon as the rob-
berry was discovered.
