LEGISLATORS WANT
INFORMATION
is Your Opinion of
the Terminal Elevator
Proposition?
Bismarck, N. D., Feb, g. 1910
Editor Of Pioneer
Hope, N D.

Editor OF Pioneer
Hope, N D.
Dear Sir:
The matter of esta blishing
terminal elevator is before this session
of the Legislature and your delegation
10 anxious to get the views of their
constituents on this proposition. Par
ticularly would we lik to get the ideas
of the farmers or oteers engaged in
growing grain, as to whether they feel
it is wise expenditure of money at
this time. There is about $26, 900. 90 in
this fund and it is estimated that near
ly that much more will he available
the comming year and the same a.
mount the third year if the present
levy stands as tits Outside of this
mount anything expended would have
to be by special appropriation.
We desire to do anything that will
lend material aid in the marketing of
the farm products of North Dakota,
but this is big proposition whereby
the state is branching out into new
business venture, and there is much
difference of opinion as to whether it
will work out in a practical way as it
is hoped far by the supporters of the
measure, and also whether the funds
are sufficient and the the time ripe for
action. The position of your delega-
tion is that we wish to reflect the senti-
ment of the people of Griggs and
Steele Counties, and would be pleased
to have you publish this SO that we
may hear from the people interested
befere it comes up for final vote.
Yours very truly.

School Happenings

Several pupils Of the High school
enjoyed a holiday Friday because of
their excellent behavior and diligent
study during the. arst half Of the school
year. We hope to do as we'll, if not
better, the latter half. At present ell
are busy getting settled down for the
new subjects offered this semester.
The teachers had a wonderful exper-
ienoe last week. What do you sup
pose? Why, those children actually
had their names in Minneapolis
daily! This noble paper gave truly
touching account of their green rib
bons which they must wear to keep
from being mistaken for children be-
longing in the primary grades.
The boys OF the Manual training
class are making doors for the teach

They are sure to be appreciated when
completed.

HUGO FARMERS CLUB.

The Hugo Farmers Club met at the
home of F. D. Doyle, January 10Th,
which was rousing success, there
having been about 80 persons present.
We were favored with several songs
and instrumental pieces not on the
program; also with an original poem
by c. j. Jones which surely "brought
down the house."
The debate on stock and grain rails
ing was, to say the least, very inter.
esting and instructive, and showed a.
good deal of study and thought by
some of the participants. And last,
but by no means least was the feed at
about midnight. It is no wonder that
Mr.. Doyle keeps so fat that he can
hardly walk, If he gets such eats all

GREAT ADVANCE
IN DEMURRAGE

Although it has not been received
by local officials, the railroad com
panies east Of the Ohio river have
forwarded to freight agents at some
other points orders which will in
crease the demurrage charges on re-
frigerator cars. The rate per day
heretofore has been 81 per day per
car, but the new order provides that
50 per day per car be charged for
cars after they have been held for a
period Of three days. 1t is under
stood the order will go into effect
February 1. The instructions as
received elsewhere are as follows:
Refrigerator cars when held for
loading or unloading for the first
seventy-two hours 6 days. 81 per
car per day, and for each succeeding
seventy-two hours (three days. SO
per car per day, or fraction Of day:
and for each succeeding day or frac-
ton thereof, S."
No reason for the increase has
been assigned. Local officials have
had the instructions to keep this
class Of cars moving, and it is prob
able that the extra charge is to fur
