MURPHY BACK FROM FARGO

Francis J. Murphy, assistant attOr-
ney general, returned to this city last
night on No. from Fargo, where he
has been working on the Northern Pa
cific injunction case for several days.
Mr.. Murphy brought with him the
news of an initial victory for the state,
for the Northern Pacific yesterday af-
ternoon stipulated before Judge Ami
don to let the temporary injunction
stand until the final hearing. There
fore no hearing will be- held for some
time in this matter and the temporary
injunction against the railroad stands
until after such hearing has been held.
-a.. Victory by State.
This news is received with JOY by
some of the state officials and it's said
that such action on the part of the
railroad company means that more
than half the battle is already won by
Attorney General Linde and his assist
ants.
Mr.. Murphy had been taking testi-
mony of some of the Moorhead brew
ers relative to shipments of liquor in
to this state and it was stipulated to
continue taking the testimony of Min
nesota brewers until May IS.
History Of Case.
On Saturday April H.. Attorney
General Linde brought an action
against the North ern Pacific railroad
company to enjoln the importation of
Intoxicating liquors for illegal use
into the state of North Dakota. The
action was brought under the Webb
law and Jude Pollock that night is
sued a temporary Injunction against
the road. The order was returnable
on May 8, but this latest action on the
part of the railroad company means
that the matter will not come into
court until the attorneys are ready for
the final hearing.

PLANNING FOR FOR
BIG CORN Snow
Secretary Hardy Of Fargo Com
mercial Club Tells of the
Plans.

Fargo, N. d., May 1.-The Annual
North Dakota Corn Show has unques-
tionably done much to promote this
important phase of our agricultural
industry; it is held annually during
the Grain Growers Convention and
has in years gone by been limited on
account of lack of space. With the
building and completion of the new
Auditorium, the Fargo Commercial
Club finds itself in a position to ma
terially strengthen. and enlarge this
show, which has always looked for
its financial and moral support to this
Club. The 1915 Corn Show is in
charge of a committee we'll qualified
the earnestness of their intentions is
found in the fact that a premium list
of over 100000 in cash prizes is be-
ing prepared, supplemented by many
individual silver cup premiums.
In this competition the state is d.
vided nto four sections: The north.
eastern section comprising the coun-
ties of Pembino, Cavalier, Towner,
Walsh Ramsey. Benson, Grand Forks,
Nelson, Eddy, Foster and Wells; the
southeastern section comprising the
counties Of Traill, Steele, Griggs, Cass,
Barnes, Stutsman, Richland, Ransom,
Sargent, LaMoure and Dickey; the
northwestern section comprising the
counties of Bottineau. Divide, Will
liams, Ward, Renville, Burke, Noun
traill, McHenry, Pierce, Mclean, Sher
idan, Oliver, Mercer, Dunn and Nc
Kenzie; the southwestern section COM
prising the counties of Kidder, Bur-
leigh, Logan, Mcintosh, Emmons, Nor
ton, Stark, Hettinger, Adams, Billings,
Golden Valley and Bowman.
Substantial prizes are offered for
the best exhibits entered in each class
and for the best ten ears and single
ear in each section. On this basis of
competition, each section will COM
pete by itself and the contestants
have an excellent opportunity to draw
one Of the very liberal prizes offered.
In addition, a contest is scheduled for
the best county exhibit in each sec.
tion. Prizes are offered Of Is, $50
and $25 each, thus giving twelve
counties in the state an opportunity
to win a prize for the best exhibit In
their section.

China REJECTS
ALL DEMANDS
Further Conferences Will Be Held
in Effort to Arrive at e..
Understanding.

Washington, D. c., May 1--Rejec.
ton by China of the so.called general
group" of Japanese demands an
nounced at Peking today, occasioned
little surprise in official quarters. 1t
is recalled that China early in Febru-
ary practically rejected the same de-
mands by refusing to discuss them.
It is generally believed the rejection
will be followed by further confer
ence and an endeavor to reconstruct
a series Of articles along line more
acceptable to China. The Washington
state department is silent on the sub
ject.
