Raspberry Hunt.

YACK and Evelyn had been picking raspberries all the afternoon n they
had had them for their supper. Not only that but when daddy came
up to tell them their story they had a nice saucer Of them awaiting him.

You see, none of them were 81 fond # the white berries a they were
of the red ones, and 81 they gave more prizes for the successful red raspberry
hunters
"And what do you suppose the prizes wereT"

"Wen. let's try to guess" said Jack. 81 guess that they gave Queeriy made

Jack had been making a collection OF all the queer stones he could and
"Why, you're right" said daddy.
They gave very strange looking stones which had fans drawn oer them
and in the center of these stones were big honows. n these houows they
put the raspberris, and then every n took the raspoer1eS from these sd0nes

p~lainant. Order and opinion.
The Northwestern Sheet & Iron
Works of Wahpeton makes complaint
that for the past three years the Great
Northern Railway Co. has refused to
switch cars, which move via compel
ing lines, to the industry tracks OF
the complainant.
1t appears that the plant of the COM
plainant is located upon the industry
track of the Great Northern Railway
Co, but is not upon the right of way,
which at that point is evidently but
a few feet wide, because the complain
INT is able to unload the sheets Of
metal used by 1t in its business direct
ly from the car into h warehouse
without the use Of a platform, and
without intermediate handling, this
being accomplished by sliding the
sheets down an inclined chute, and a
platform being really a detriment,
rather than a help, in this regard.
Complainant alleges that it has been
Disseminated against because other
Industries upon the same track are not
so treated, but it will appear that the
other industries are either wholly or
partially upon the right of way and
have their own platform built upon
the right Of way.
1t appeared upon the hearing that
the Great Northern Railway Co. has
been in the habit of spotting all cars
shipped over its lines upon this in
dustry track adjacent to the plant of
the complainant for its convenience,
but has refused to so spot cars ship
ped over competing lines upon which
1t would be entitled to collect merely
a switching charge. It also appears
that while the contract or lease,
nrLizL A. T-ooA NYN-AL~-- ~
has with the other industries referred
to upon this industry track, seems to
prohibit such industries from ship
ping their incoming a load ship
ments over any other road than the
Great Northern. yet where such road
has secured the billing of the ship
ments this provision is not enforced,
and in fact could not be enforced. The
point made by the railway is
that inaSmuch as the complainant is
not upon it's right of way and has no
share or interest in the terminal facili-
ties of the railway company, it is not
entitled to any more consideration
than my other shipper and could be
required to unload upon the company's
team track and haul it's freight a con-
siderable distance, n that it is only
for accommodation to the complainant
as a customer Of the company that the
latter spots the cars opposite its plant
as stated above.
1t developed upon the hearing that
certain influences were at work to
bring about this situation, but it seems
to us that a larger question is in
volved, and that a mere disagreement
or quarrel between a common carrier
and it's shipper is of no concern to this
commission in its determination Of the
legal aspects of the case.
Upon the hearing of the case, which
was had in the presence Of representa-
tives of all the railroads doing bust

full of little water crafts Of various
sizes and kinds filled with people.
They gave US a very warm and cor
dial welcome.
Monday forenoon we were driven to
the handsome residence Of Hon. T. K.
Meyer, the American vice consul at
Bergen, and entertained for a short
time with generous hospitality by MT
Meyer and his good wife. After that
we were taken On a long and beauti-
full drive about h city and high up
on the hillside overlooking the city
and harbOr, and in the early evening.
from 4 o'clock till 7:3O, we were en-
tertained at a banquet of magnificent
proportions. Bergen is a quaint old
city with many points of interest. AT
10 in the evening we took a steamer
for Trondhjem, On our way to North
Cape. We spent two days, Wednes-
day and Thursday, at Trondhjem, an
other quaint old city Of much inter
est. 1t was one time the capital of
Norway. There the king has a pal
ace which We had the privilege of WIS.,
iting. We visited the Masonic temple
of that city, a wonderful structure,
Also the old historic cathedral of

great power Of which the government
is beginning to utilize. The second
day, we took a long automobile ride
by a winding road high up on the side
Of one of the nearby mountains over
looking the city. We are now on the
long home stretch Of over 600 miles
from T%rOndhjem to North Cape. The
route is one grand panoramic view of

grandeur. Yesterday afternoon and
evening we felt that We had reached
the crown event of our northern trip.
At $3.50 We crossed the Arctic circle.
| A cannon shot was fired at the cross
ing in honor of the event. At $50 we
reached what is called the Glacier
field. This was a grand sight. Our
steamer stopped at that point for an
hour in order to let the passengers.

STILL A CIVILIZED CITY.

New York City is nearing the end Of
a weird chapter in its history, and
throughout the affair it is gratifying to
note that it's officials have acted with
entire good sense.
When three members of an anarchis-
tic organization were killed by thee x-
plosion Of a bomb a week ago, leading
anarchists made preparations to turn
h funerals into a big Saturday DEM
~onstration, which would have necessi-
tated the holding Of the bodies for a.
week.
The health department was called
upon to take the first step to check this
species Of midsummer madness. The
superintendent of the department in
sisted that a city ordinance pertaining
70 the keeping Of dead bodies be car
ried out; and so the Saturday celebra-
ton seemed to have been prevented.
Next the anarchists decided to Gre
mate the bodies of the three men who
had been killed. and carry their ashes
through the streets as a preliminary to
experimenting orgy.
This brought the matter within the
scope of the police department, which
has general authority to prevent any
demonstration which is believed to be
a menace to the law and order Of the
community, or which it thought to be
contrary to a sound public policy.
OF course a large city like New York
has more than the Usual number of
1ow-browed individuals, who think
crookedly just as consistently as a
rail fence runs c~rookedly; and it is
often confronted with the necessity Of
dealing with somewhat unclassified
forms of insanity.
But it ought to be a comparatively
easy matter to decide as between dis
orderly indulgences and an honest in
stention; and it is to be noted with sat
isfaction that in its handling of its

in the habit of moving this wheat on
a switching charge Of SO, but a refer
ence to the regular published tariff of
the company convinces us that this
was by mistake, and upon the assump-
ton that the rule applied which pro-
Vides that all carloads of freight on
which revenue has beer received. and
which has been set for unloading and
subsequently reswitched to another
location in the yard limits shall be
handled upon a switching charge of SO.
The commission can see no reason
why a comomn carrier should fail or
refuse to establish a regular tariff for
a switching charge for any commodity
in carload lots from any point at any
station to any other point in the same
station, whether upon. it's own line or
in conjunction with the line Of anoth-
er carrier, or whether it is a commOd-
ity upon which it has received v
nue., or upon which some other carrier
has received revenue.
It frequently happens that grain is
loaded out from an elevator for trans
portation to the terminal market and
afterwards diverted to a local mill for
milling. It also frequently happens
that local mills unable to secure their
wheat directly from the farmers are
required to purchase from the eleva-
tors in the same town. The transpor-
tation of wheat from an elevator to a
mill under such circumstances is not
necessarily a draying service, but is
the function Of a common carrier the
same as the hauling Of commodities
between different stations, and while
the compensation for such services
should be based upon the cost Of the
service, yet there is no reason why an
arbitrary minimum of five miles (sup-
posed to represent the distance be-
tween two stations) should be used,
and the commission feels, and SO de-
cides that the Great Northern Railway
Co. should establish and publish a
regular tariff switching charge for this
purpose. q
This applies not only to the facts
raised in this case, but to all similar
situations al any point within the
state, and is not meant to apply pecu-
liarly to the Great Northern Railway
Co., but should apply to all common
carriers within the state, and it Is
hoped that the order in this case shall
operate and be construed as an ex-
preston Of the commissions will in
the matter and be so acted upon by
other carriers even though they are
not parties to this proceeding. There
fore it is
Ordered, that this order shall be-

FINANCED INTO BANKRUPTCY.

New York World: There is no mys
terry about the fall Of the Cincinnati
Hamilton & Dayton railroad into the
hands of receivers any more thar
there vas no mystery in the earlier
fall Of the Flint & Pere Marquette
into the hands Of receivers.
Both systems serve a territory
thickly settled and rich in agricul-
tural and manufacturing production,
Both enjoy a density Of traffic above
the average for western railroads
which are amply solvent and pay good
dividends,
If either Of these properties had
been run by railroad men for railroad
ends of public service and ownership
profit, the bankruptcy Of the one
would be as accountable as would
have been the bankruptcy Of the other.
But both were run by bankers for
bankers profits. Both were loaded
down with bOnd issue after bond issue,
with bankers commissions on each
issue. Both have a bonded debt far
exceeding stock ownership.
When the bankers OF the Morgan
group who controlled both properties
could force no more of the inflated
bond issues on the open market, they
proceeded to make a market other
wise. When the Erie refused their
offer Of the Hamilton 81 Dayton they
loaded it over on to the Baltimore &
Ohio. which sunk $23, 900, 900 in the
property within a few years. They
then unlOaded on the Baltimore &
Ohio 10000 shares of Pere Marquette,
which, President Willard testified a
month ago, has been a dead loss"
The bankers skinned both proper
ties as they have skinned the New
Haven. Both properties have been
Morganized to the verge Of a receiver
ship. How many more cases Of the
kind are needed to effect a complete
and final divorce Of banking and rail-
reading?

That follows days UNMARRIED flight!
