Left No Will.

st. Paul, Mimi, April l0.-Freder-
ick Weyerhauser, the deceased lum-
ber king, left no will, so far as
known. The absence of will, ac-
cording to Attorney General Smith,
will cause embarrassment iii the col
lection of the Inheritance tax. The
opinion is prevalent here that Wey-
erhauser disposed of much of his
property before he died and that the
state will not realize nearly the
amount of taxes it anticipated. This
also may cause litigation.

London Nov. 12.-The Russian in the east,
which were for time the predominant feature of the
news again divide space with accounts of the rendled
activity on the part the Germans in West Flanders where
the forces of Emperor William have dsproved the conten

tremendous losses to bear out what has also been said
that the Germans abandon the struggle reach the
coast unless they utterly crushed.

Dxmude only temporary and that its history will be much

Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 12.-Shall the

all appropriations including those set
by the mill tax as we'll as those stand

sition as it was put up squarely to
the court. ~
The Proposition.
The seriousness of the proposition
appeals to all interested in state af-
fairs. Briefly stated it amounts to
this:
The constitution limits the state
levy to four mills and thus must pro-
vide the expense of conducting all the
states business and institutions. It
is necessary to have full three mills
to get along, while one mill, with nu-
merous other appropriations, were to-
take care of the educational institu-
tions and other special tax funds.
The legislature continued to pass
mill tax appropriations until 1t was
necessary to levy 1B mills for them,

railroad control of Our terminals is one of the
most serious obstacles to the development
of water transportation in the United States.
1t is almost automatic that the control of
terminals means the domination of the en-
tire route. Of what value is the use of any
highway if one is to be denied the right of
ingress and egress?
In the proper solution of the terminal
problem lies to great extent the future of
water traffic in this country. We should
have municipality controlled terminals, to

ton in the United States is the provision
or proper terminals.
In this respect the United States is far
behind the leading European countries. A
large proportion of the most valuable water
frontage in this country is either owned or
controlled by the railroads. Thus they are
able to dominate this terminal situation, and
they exercise this dominion SO as to throttle
river traffic, either by occupying it for their
own purposes, or by holding it idle and pre-
venting its use for docks and wharves. The

In this connection we must bear in mind
the fact that we have in the United States
the most highly developed railroad systems
in the entire world. This is particularly true
of our ability to handle freight. For ex-
ample, the trains on both sides of the Rhine,
with their diminutive five or eight-ton cars,
look like toys to an American. In the per-
lection of railroad equipment and roadbed
in the United States it has now become pos
sible to carry $500 tons of freight on
single train. In August, 1909, in single
