YOUMANS CLAIMS
UNSEEhLY HASTE,
ASKS REHEAR|NG

.g Alleging that the hearing of his
appeal in supreme court was "improv-
identity and unfairly advanced on &C.
ton of the defendants" that the al
legged stipulation to advance never
was authorized by the plaintiff; that
the affidavit of Carlton B. Davis, of
counsel for the defense, questioning
his own authority, destroyed its ef-
feet; that the motion to advance was
made by the defendants in bad faith,
and that the unseemly haste with
which the supreme court arrived at
its opinion was denial of justice
to the plaintiff, Representative James
S. Manahan of Minnesota, represent
ing Grant S. Youmans of Minot. this
morning filed petition for rehearing
in the supreme court.
Youmans 0sOught. to recover dam
ages aggregating $25O,00O from Gov
ernor Hanna and other members of
a former state banking board for the
alleged wrecking of Youmans state
bank at Minot. The Ward county dis
trict court returned a judgment for
the defendants; Youmans appealed,
and the last unquestioned official act
of the "old" supreme court of North
Dakota was to affirm the decision of
the lower court and dismiss this case.
If the petition for rehearing re-
ceives favorable attention, the You
mans case will come up before the
new supreme court, where Manahan
and Arthur LeSueur, attorneys for the
former Minot banker, want it.

CAPITAL OF HEAVEN,

The Kingdom of Heaven is here on
Earth. w.- ... .'.a..
1t is the widest OF earth's empires,
and the most beautiful.
1t has 50 states, which are the
weeks of the year.
It has 365 glorious cities.
And Christmas is its capital!
. From the capital of Heaven no gum.
frown; no bastions bulWark its gold
paved streets against the armies of
other kingdoms.
The gates are open ever, and in its
spacious parliament all languages are
spoken, which the necromahcy of the
edifice transforms into a common
tongue called Love.
The avenues of this capital are lin
ed with evergreen, emblem of tina
which is eternal; and silver stars
sparkle from the shining towers that
pierce the gentle sky
In these towers dwell those happy
morta)s for whom the capital of Heav-
en- was builded-the rulers of the
Kingdoms capital-they of whom
Jesus said: Suffer little children,
and forbid them not. to come unto
me; for such is the Kingdom of Heav-
en-"
So brilliant are the stars in the tow
ers Of the capital Of Heaven that
their CLEANS illumine the most dis.
tant states of the kingdom; so that
every dweller therein, If he but look
sharply, may distinguish the CAPT
tails beauties from afar.
And through all the states and cit
les of the kingdom the best used
roads lead ever toward the capital
AS the ways approach they grow
more beautiful and wider; they are
inlaid with pearls which were tears
of joy and they echo with youthful
laughter.
AT the doors of the capital, sweet
music is heard, and every traveller
enters its portals to the accompani.
ment of children's carols.
The roads from the capital are
noted for kindly deeds and are filled
with travellers sharing their means,
and helping one another.
These roads are suffused with a
gentle glow, and in the heart of each
wayfarer abides the desire to help
bear another's burden.
The glories of retrospect are slow
to fade, and often the goodwill i'm.
planted by sojourn in the shining
city remains with the traveller in the
farthest regions Of the kingdom, un.
til it is again time to make the pill.
grimage to the capital.

FLOUR INDUSTRY
Of STATE PLACED
IN REAL DANGER

Less than two weeks distant and
scheduled for a point 700 miles from
North Dakota will be held at Kansas
City, Mo-, on January 4, 1917, rate
hearing Of the most vital Importance
to the milling and cereal manufacture
ing industries of North Dakota. No
tice of the hearing has only now been
received by the North Dakota railroad
commission, giving it very little op-
pCrtun'ty to prepare an adequate de-
tense, but the commission has made
arrangements to be represented by
Rate Expert Jas. A. Little and petit
ton will be filed for a second hearing
to be held at Bismarck, where all of
the interests involved in this state
may have an opportunity to be heard.
1t Is important, however, that the mill
ing interests of the state be repre-
sented at Kansas City, as no further
hearings may be held and it is prob
able that several associations or
groups of Independent millers will
send delegates.
Want Common Minimum.
Because of it's comparatively small
cities and its thinly distributed popu-
lation, North Dakota milling interests
have long enjoyed rates based on a
minimum carload of $4,000 pounds.
These rates were voluntarily inaugur-
ated by the railroad companies, know
ing the situation and realizing the
necessity.
Now number of powerful milling
organizations in the south and central
west have filed with the interstate
commerce commission, an allegation
that they are being Disseminated
against in that their rates on grain
products shipments are assessed on a
40,0O0-pound minimum carload basis,
while the northwestern states enjoy
intra-state rates based on a $4,000
pound minimum. They ask, therefore,
that a uniform interstate minimum
basis be established, presumably at
10000 pounds. The effect in North
Dakota Of the establishment Of this
basis would be to compel our small
manufacturers and shippers to ship
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1916-12-23

10000 pounds more to car, il they
are to enjoy carload rates. And, with
the generally small population of our
cities, 40,00o.pound minimum is en-.
tirely impracticable, it is claimed.
To save the milling industry of
North Dakota, or to prevent what
must at the very best result in SER
ious handicap, it is said to be highly
important that the interstate COM
MERGE commission be impressed with
the injustice of asking small millers
in this state with their comparatively
scattered sources of consumption to
compete on the same basis with the
large millers whose distribution is in
densely settled regionssof the coun-

Dakota mills will be generally repre-

OUR CHRISTMAS TREE.


1t is improbable that the Christmas
trees valuable fruit is really half so
interesting as the tree itself. u
The balsam fir, the species conn.,
monty sold in mid.winter markets, il

tree family known as the pines.
This whole evergreen tribe is Of
aristocratic lineage; it's ancestors liv.
ed in the ancient forests which made
the earth's coal measures, and its
most distinguished modern represent.
alive is the gigantic sequoia, or Cali.
fornia redwood. The white pine
which has made millions of dollars
for lumber kings, is a cousin of the
little Christmas tree, while the tiny
club MOSES and common cat tails be-
long to the same ancient stock. 9th
ers Of its kin grow deep in southern
swamps, or climb up mountain
heights. or creep along sand dunes, or
hide beneath the Arctic SHOWS.
The use Of the pine family for pro-
viding the special kind of living green
required for festival decorations ante
dates the birth of the Christ child
In Isaiah LX:13 it is written:
THE glory of Lebanon shall :.
come unto thee, the fir tree, the
pine tree, and the box together,
to beautify the place of my sane
tuary."
The Greeks burned the wood of the
arbor vitae in sacrificial fires, be-
cause Of its agreeable odor.
In oriental art the pine tree appears
as the symbol of everlasting life. 1t
Is for this reason that the Japanese
develop those choice specimens of
horticulture, dwarf pines a hundred
years old and few inches high.
Lately in America, every variety
Of the family has been used as gar
den garnishments. But even fashion
cannot vulgarize the evergreens. Who
ever cherishes one of this family is
serving humanity.
Although we treat our Christmas
tree as an honored guest, we are, all
unwittingly, its enemy. 1t belongs to
a dying race, and we are Fastening
its destruction. 1t cannot be grown
from the roots nor from cuttings. II
must spring from the seed which is
weak in vitality and when borne by
the wind is often flung on sterile soil
