SHIP POOL UNDER
GOVERNMENT FIRE
Final Arguments Heard in Suit to
Break Up Combination
of Lines.

An "expeditins" court, comprising two
judges of the federal District Court and

to dissolve the transatlantic steamship
pool on the ground that It is monopoliz-

dered next July, and an appeal will be
carried direct TO the Supreme Court in
any event.
The defendant lines are the Hamburg
American, Holland-America, North Ger
man Lloyd, Allan, Anchor. Red Star.
Cunard, White Star, Russian East Asia
tic lines, International Mercantile Marine
Company, international Navigation Com
pany and the Pacific Railway Company.
The government contends that these lines
formed a trust" In London in February,
1908, under the name OF the North At
lantc conference and agreed 10 divide
equally among its several lines all third
class passenger traffic between Europe
and the United States.
The government complains that fight

parallelling independent lines and that
the loss was borne pro rata by members
of tho pool" AS a result, the govern
ment maintains. the Russian Volunteer
fleet between New York and Russia was
driven out of business and the Russian
line was driven into the combine. The
Uranium Line alone has withstood the
competition.

From a Pioneer.

For three years previous to locating in
Emmons county. myself and family had
made our home at or near Hunter. N. D.,
where had "pre-empted an eighty"
but as there was no more government
land in allthatregion we concluded to
60 where it would be free OF cost instead
of purchasing railroad land at twelve
dollars an acre on twenty years time.
In so doing we made the mistake Of our
life. Within ten years from that time
land in that locality was selling at
from forty to fifty dollars the acre. AS
Think it all over now. ! realize that it
was most wonderful lack of foresight
in US in view of:the rapid growth and
of the country. If one
could always possess as good foresight
as ,.hindsight'' most Of life,s mistakes
would be avoided.
The spring of 1856 was a mos. delight
ful one, the valley Of the Red River, be-
ing as bright and sunny in carly April as
are Baltimore and Washington at That
season Of the year. remember that On
April 18th Oliver Dalrymple, who owned
many large farms in the neighborhood Of
Casselton, had ten thousand acres Of
wheat seeded. BY May Isl my son, 6.

were ready TO start with our four-horse-
team and load Of household goods across
