UPWARD REVISION
OF WATER RATES
OLDK COUNCIL PROVIDES FOR
INCREASED REVENUE FROM :.
WATER USERS.
FRONT STREET SEWER WANTED
BY MAJORITY OF PROPERTY
OWNERS.

One of the last acts of the old council
was to boost the rates charges for city
water, by advancing the minimum
charge from $500 to $500 per year and
making a general revision upward of the
rest of the rates. The matter came up
at the meeting of the council last Wednes-
day evening and caused no end of dis
cussion before it was finally adopted.
Even then there was trouble about the
vote, Councillors Hamann and Mueller
refusing to vote in the affirmative until
the others had cast their votes and car
ried the motion. In order to make the
raise effective it required unanimous
consent and this was given when the
two councillors mentioned changed their
votes from nay to yea.
The old rate was based upon max
imum water consumption of 5000 gal
Ions per month or 1850 per year and
the consumers using less than that
amount were charged at the rate of
$500 per year and at the rate of cents
per 100 gallons when more than that
amount was used. The old and new
rates follow.

STATE AGENT AVERY RETURNS
FROM CANADA.

Carlos Avery of Hutchinson, state
game and fish warden, has just returned
from trip through the wild country
in the northern part of the state and
Canada, where he conferred with the
authorities regarding illegal seining in
international waters.
He says the trip was in many ways
the most remarkable he ever experienced
and was also the most severe as test
Of physical strength and endurance.
They travelled by dog train and had to
60 ahead Of the dogs on snow shoes and
break trail in the three feet of snow
that lay in the forests. The five dogs
drew a sled laden with 800 pounds of
camp supplies. Some of the time they
camped with the Indians. Mr.. Avery
had his camera with him and secured
some beautiful views of the lakes,
streams, virgin forests and mountains
for there are elevations in this little
known part of Minnesota that in their
height and rugged grandeur may proper
ly be called mountains.

SHERBURN VISITED BY BAD FIRE.

The village Of Sherburn was. visited by
a disastrous fire last Thursday morning,
when two warehouses went up in smoke
with the contents and the balance of the
town was in danger of being entirely
wiped out. The buildings destroyed
were the A. w. Packard farm machinery
warehouse and the storage house of the
Minneapolis Brewing Co., both Of which
are situated on the Milwaukee right OF
way. The fire started in the Packard
warehouse and it's origin is unknown, It
was not discovered before nearly the
entire structure was one sheet of flames.
1t quickly spread to the Minneapolis
Brewing Co. building, and both build
ings together with all their contents were
in few minutes practically a total loss.

Minneapolis, appeared before the council
and stated that he had made an investi-
cation into the heating plant proposition
in New Ulm and had found that it was
entirely feasible and would no doubt
be q paying venture if properly installed
and the rates fixed high enough to bring
the city some return. Mr.. Foster
promised to submit detailed report to
the first meeting of the new council.
The vote cast at the recent city election
was canvassed by the aldermen and the
city clerk instructed to notify the several
successful candidates of their election
and request them to appear at the city
clerks Office to qualify.
The first meeting of the new city
council was held last evening, for the
purpose of organization and the trans
action of routine business. At this
meeting the Mayor submitted his list of
appointees for approval.

RAILROADS APPLY
FOR 10C ADVANCE
WANT HIGHER FREIGHT RATE
ON SOFT COAL FROM LAKE
SUPERIOR.
CLAIM INCREASE GRANTED BY
INTERSTATE COMMISSION
SETPRECEDENT.

Cities of Southern Minnesota are
vitality interested in the hearing before
the state railway and warehouse COM
mission next Tuesday morning, when
the applicationof the railroads traversine
this part of the state for an increase OF
ten cents per ton on the freight rate fol
soft coal from Duluth to Southern Min
nesota will be heard.
None of the Twin City newspapers
have called attention to this hearing in a
manner to attract attention and most
of them have ignored the matter entirely,
and had it not been for the attorney for
the Minnesota Shippers Association, it
is doubtful whether the public generally
would have been aware of the con-
templated raise until after it had been
granted.
The attorney for the shippers has sent
out circular letter to some of the bust
ness and commercial organizations and
these will no doubt be represented at
the meeting. The letter from the at
torney follows and explains the situation
in detail:
''On April 13 hearing will be held
before the Minnesota railroad and ware
house commission to consider the petition
of the railroad companies asking for an
increase of ten cents a ton in soft coal
rates from the head of Lake Superior, to
Southern Minnesota cities and towns.
cat this hearing the railroads will be
represented by their attorneys who will
try to make the railroad commission
believe that the rates now charged from
the head of Lake Superior to this territory
are entirely too low; that the present
rates do not give the railroad companies
a fair return for services rendered; that,
owing to the fact that the rates have
been increased from Chicago and eastern
territory, which increase was granted by
the interstate commerce commission, the
Minnesota commission should also raise
the rates from the head of the Lakes to
this territory.
''As against this representation, we
believe the increase asked would give
the railroads higher rate than is now
enjoyed by the Chicago and Eastern lines
and deprive the citizens of this territory
of the benefits they are entitled to be-
cause of their favorable location with
reference to the coal docks at the head
of Lake Superior. We believe that the
people should be protected in this in
stance, inasmuch as the increase in rates
asked for does not seem warranted and
if granted would simply open the way
for further advance in the future.
''This is matter of vital Importance
to you, and 1 hope you are sufficiently
interested to be present in voicing your
protest. You need not necessarily speak
on the question; there will be others there
prepared to put forth their best efforts
along that line. Your presence, however,
will count for as much as the presence of
those who will discuss the matter with
the commission. 1 sincerely hope that
you will lend your aid and be on hand

JUDGE TAKES NEWSPAPER TO
TASK FOR CRITICISM.

imprisonment in the state peniten-
tiary at Saltwater during the remainder
of his natural life at hard labor" That
is the awful sentence Judge Quinn pro-
nounced upon Ole 0. SOlem at Jackson
Friday, says the Fairmont Sentinel.
"All the parties to the action were
in court. The defendant preserved the
same stolid Indifference that has charac-
terized his conduct throughout all of the
remarkable and nerve-racking trial. At
the close of Judge Quinn's sentence the
defendant was turned over to the Jackson
county sheriff who will keep him in close
confinement until taken to his final
home inside the great walls in Saltwater.
Judge Quinn, in pronouncing the
sentence took occasion to reply at some
length to an article in a Window paper
which criticised the conduct of the at
torneys for the State. He characterized
the article as unjust and without founda-
ton and in reviewing the case, compli-
mented the attorneys on both sides for
the spirit of fairness which had charac-
exacting and laborious trial. The judges
remarks were well received and cleared
the atmosphere of many false reports

''The attorneys for the defense were

MiSSOURPS BLUE LAWS HIT
NEWSPAPERS.

Moberly, a fair-sized Missouri town,
seems to harbor adherents of the states
blue laws, who are not respecters of
persons or business and the law is being
enforced as it is found upon the statute
books, regardless of it's antiquated
character or obsolete origin. A recent
dispatch covering one instance follows:
''The editors of three daily news
papers of Moberly, Mo.-the Monitor,
the Democrat and the Index-were
arrested, Sunday, March 18th, shortly
before the papers were issued from the
the press, the police alleging the news
paper men we're violating the Sunday
closing law by working on Sunday.
''At o'clock in the morning Pritchett
Walkup and Irby Gray, news dealers,
were arrested for delivering the St. Louis
and Kansas City papers.
Frank Rothwell, editor of the Moni-
tor, was the first man taken into custody.
He gave bond for his appearance. His
arrest was followed by that of R. F.
Kelley of the Democrat, and w. D.
Preston of the Index.
mo business houses were open in
Moberly that day. Several dealers had
large cards in their windows announcing
their intention to open at midnight, and
the streets were thronged with crowds
waiting for something to happen
''Taxicab drivers went JOY riding
through the streets, but were not al.
lowed to carry passengers.

PAPER MANUFACTURES SHORT
OF RAW MATERIAL.

It would not be surprising at all to see
the price of paper come up to such a
prohibitive figure as to make the publ
cation of newspapers impossible at
present prices. A shortage of raw
material already exists and print paper
is going up at startling rate.
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld has
taken up the matter of urging the people
of the country to save the waste paper
and old rags, essential to the manufacture
of paper and has sent out the following
notice to the public:
The attention of the Department of
Commerce is called, by the president of
a large paper manufacturing company,
to the fact that there is a serious shortage
of raw material for the manufacture of
paper, including rags and old papers.
He urges that the Department should
make it known that the collecting and
saving of rags and old papers would
greatly better existing conditions for
American manufacturers.
Something like $4,000 tons of different
kinds of paper and paper board are
manufactured every day in the United
States and a large proportion of this,
after it has served its purpose, could be
used over again in some class of paper.
A large part of it, however, is either
burned or otherwise wasted. This, of
course, has to be replaced by new
materials. In the early history of the
paper industry publicity was given to
the Importance of saving rags. It is Of
scarcely less Importance now. The De.
partment of Commerce is glad to bring
this matter to the attention of the public
in the hope that practical results may
flow from it. A little attention to the
saving of rags and old papers will NEAR
genuine relief to our paper industry anc
diminishing drain upon our sources O
supply for new materials.
A list of dealers in paper stocks can bt
obtained from the local Chamber O.
| Commerce or Board of Trade.
