ing, back in 1911, those accommodations
have been very slight indeed and by no
means fitted for the large volume OF
traffic which passes through White River
Junction and which, by reason of poor
articulation of the various services, must
wait for varying periods. Two of the
most important lines in New England
pass through White River Junction, they
being the Central Vermont and the Bos-
ton & Maine railroads, which carry the
bulk of passengers i, at least two states
of New England; and, having joined
their efforts, the operating companies
should construct building that will fill
the needs for long time to come. We
are inclined TO doubt that the expendi-
ture of $4,000 win meet the require
ments inasmuch as a considerable out :.

The distinction should be borne in mind
that the conviction of Or. Karl Buenz
and three officials of the Hamburg Ameri-
can line was not for any violation of the
neutrality of the United States in rela-
ton to the European war but because of
breaking the law respecting fraudulent
manifests of shipping OF course, the
latter charge had relation to the progress
of the war by the nature of the circum-
stances; but the broader question of the
neutrality of the United States did not
enter into the consideration of the case.

The experience Of the steamer Verona
shows that it is possible for vessel of
good steaming capacity to get away from
a hostile submarine providing the attack
is not made from the front or side. In
the case of the Verona the submarine
appeared far astern and gave chase
whereupon the Verona, on report Of her
officers put on full steam and, pursuing
a zigzag course, got away from her
would-be destroyer. However. the zigzag
course when the attacking vessel first
appeared far astern seems 20 have been
waste Of effort because there was Iii
tie or no chance for the submarine TO hit
the steamer until the distance between
them had been shortened, and the main
purpose Of the pursued was. therefore.
10 stretch that distance That purpose
could have been best attained by fun
steam ahead. unless Of course, there was
possibility Of other submarines towering
about in the vicinity.

A. " BADGER a COMPANY

Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1915-05-28
CITY WILL SUE GAS COMPANY
GIAS NOT COMPLIED WITH FRAN
CHISE AND SUIT WILL BE
STARTED

Suit will be instituted against the
officers Of the Little Falls-Darling Gas
company by the city of Little Falls
soon to recover $500 damages for fail
ure Of that company to comply with
the provisions of its franchise.
About a year and half ago the
Columbus Gas Construction company
Of Milwaukee applied for a gas ran
chise in this city. The franchise was
drawn up and was granted about a
year ago, at which time the officers
stated that Little Falls would be sup
piled with gas within a short time. AS
time to begin operations approached
the company asked for an extension
of time, which was GRANTED. They
gave surety bonds for $500, which was
to be forfeited for failure to begin
work on the plant at the end Of the
extended time. Still they failed to
start work and applied for another ex-
tension and later another, both Of
which were granted.
The city council recently decided
that if the company meant business
they would: have to show it and get
busy and purchase a site at least. This
was not done and at the expiration of
the extended time given the company
the city attorney was instructed to
proceed and collect the bonds. He
wrote the company letter and receiv-
ed an answer from President Suit
about May 10, stating that the COM
pany would make a proposition to the
city council within week and if the
council would not accept this PROPOSE
tion he would paw the $500.
1t is now nearly two weeks since
the proposition should have been in
the hands of the city attorney or the
city clerk, but nothing has been heard
from them and City Attorney Cameron
will proceed to institute suit to recover
the money.

Will ERECT W0hEN'S bUlD|NC|
COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO PRO-
CEED WITH BUILDING-ES-
TINGATED COST $3.50

Work will likely be commenced
soon on the erection of a women 8 ex-
hibit building at the fair grounds. At
a meeting Of the fair board and a
committee of ladies who are raising
funds for the building, held Tuesday
evening, plans and specifications for
the building were exhibited and esti-
mates of it's cost given. It was esti-
mated that it would cost about $3.50
to erect it. T. c. Gordon, N. N. Berg
helm, W. H. Ryan, Charles SYLVESTER
and John Vertin were appointed @atsa
committee to proceed with the build
ing by securing the necessary material
and advertising for bids for the labor.
The plans submitted were altered some
what and now call for a building 80
feet wide, 80 feet long and 10 feet
high. Forty feet of the building will
be used for women 9 exhibits and the
ing will be frame structure, with
shingle roof and concrete floor.
1t was suggested that flying ma
chine be secured for exhibits at the
county fair. The question was dis
cussed but it was decided to drop it
for the time being.
The admission fees to the fair were
left the same as last years except
that all who wish to enter exhibits at
the fair must purchase season tickets,
except children entering exhibits
through the schools. Children 3 tick
cts will be 10 cents.
A resolution was passed Offering the
Redpath-Vawter Chautauqua Bureau
the use Of the fair grounds for their
Chautauqua in June.
The following department superin-

TO SENTENCE EMOND

Judge J. A. Roeser OF St. Cloud is
expected to come here today or tomor
row to sentence David Emond, who has
pleaded guilty to charge of forgery
in the second degree, for passing forg-
ed checks at local business places.
Emond appeared before Judge Roeser
at St. Cloud last week and pleaded
guilty but sentence was deferred as it
was learned that he had been out on
probation twice before and an investi.
cation was ordered. It was found
that he had been out on probation the
last time from the Red Wing training
school, where he had been sent from
Minneapolis for indecent assault.
Nothing could be learned about the
first probation term. The fact that he
had been out on probation before, how
ever, will have some effect upon his
sentence.

ORGANIZE K c COUNCIL SUNDAY
INSTITUTION TAKES PLACE AT
HARRISON & PETERSON HALL
300 VISITORS EXPECTED 8.

Sunday local council of the
knights of Columbus will be instituted
here and class Of about so candidates
will be initiated into the order. The
institution will also be in the nature
of reunion for the councils of the
neighboring towns and if the weather
is favorable several hundred knights
from St. Cloud, Melrose, Long Prairie,
Sank Rapids, Staples and Brainerd
will come here for the meeting. Most
Of them plan on making the trip by
automobile so the number of visitors
depends largely on the weather.
The institutional work will begin at
9 O'Clock a. m. Sunday and the meet
ing will last practically all day. The
state deputy will likely be here to su-
pervise the work. A large number or
local K. C. members, who belonged to
the st. Cloud or Brainerd councils will
transfer their membership to the local
council, so that it will be instituted
with nearly 100 members.
The meeting will be held at the Har-
rison & Peterson hall, which is being
fixed up and decorated for the occa-
sion. A banquet will be rendered the
members and visitors after the work
is over.
