PASSENGER TRAIN ACCIDENT,

Mondays north bound passenger
came near being derailed, when it
struck drifted snow, packed to depth
of nearly three feet in the cut on the
Easily hill, three and a half miles
east of Langdon. The engine of the
train sent out Of Grand Forks without
a snow-plow, had been successful up
to this point in "bucking'' the drift
ed snow on the track with the "cow
catcher. - At the Easily cut, however,
the snow was so badly dritted and
packed that the train was brought to
a sudden standstill, and the broken
'cow catcher" embedded in the drift,
had to be detached after the train
had backed out of the cut. No diff
fiuclty was experienced in reaching
Langdon. but it was found that drifts
along the track between here and
Dresden were obstacles the injured
condition of the engine was unable
to surmount. Returning to Langdon
the conductor received orders from
the train dispatcher at Grand Forks
to remain here. awaiting the arrival
of another engine. The trip north to
the stations at Dresden, Wales and
Hannah was abandoned for the day,
the train leaving on its return trip to
Grand Forks at about $50 nj n.

A FORTUNE IN "SPUDS'

Ed. Clermont. one of the really
big farmers in Olga township has for
some years past been one of the larg-
est potato growers in Cavalier county
and perhaps has as extensive ideas as
anyone around here Of the crop rails
ing valuation of northern North Da-
kota soil. His view is certainly the
correct one, when he directs atten-
tion to Illinois and Iowa lands that
only produce from forty to sixty BUSH
els of corn having a value of $3.50
per acre and upwards. In comparison
Mr.. Clermont demonstrates that his
potato crop of last year gave him 2IO
bushels of Irish Cobblers to the acre
that netred him $500 a bushel on
the track at Walhalla. 1t will only
take you moment to figure it out
for yourself what land in this northern
part of the state is worth with crop
like this-and how it compares with
corn land in Illinois and Iowa that
show a forty to sixty bushel-of corn
yield, held at $3.50 per acre.

sure thing that the extension of the
spur line of the Northern Dakota
Railroad from Concrete through Cava-
lier county headed toward the north.
ern boundary line of this county and
Manitoba, will be built this summer.
The idea of the project, as it has been
discussed at meetings held since the
beginning of the year, has the extern
sion of the line traversing parts of
Olga, Loan, Harvey, West Hope and
Mt. Carmel townships.
Yesterday forenoon the Democrat
had its attention first drawn to the
fact that meetings were to be sheld
tomorrow at three o'clock in the af-
ternoon at Silwhell and on Saturday
forenoon at ten o'clock in Olga for
the taking up of details relative to a
preliminary survey to be made as
soon as the snow is off the ground.
At these meetings there will also be
plans outlined and a general discus
sion as to the ways and means for
building the road and estimates given
consideration as to its cost Of oper-
alton.

Mr.. Rosholt at the Stilwell and Olga

in this state, across the boundary lin,
into South Dakota. He will show
how the proposition was handled il

The meetings held at Stilwell an

STOCK LETTER By R. Allyn Lewis

General run of commission houses expect to see a trading market. There is a disinclination to buy except on reactions but the majority of sug- gestions are favorable to purchases when market is reactionary.
 Professional sentiment in most cases is disposed toward sales on rallies
 More long stock is reported for sale in American Car Foundry, American Locomotive, American Smelling, An aconda, Crucible, Lackawanna, U. s. Steel Midvale and Utah Copper and motors.
 Bethlehem Steels financial plan is essentially what the street has been looking fora new issue of securities convertible into B" stock at figure which would fully explain the recent deciine. That a company like the Bethlehem company has to offer a ESQ., 100000 preferred stock-a stock that takes precedence over the present shares on an per cent basis is a striking commentary upon the diff culty of enlisting capital in new in vestments at this time There is, of course, nothing wrong with the busi- ness condition of the company. Orders on hand have increased from $193, 00O,- 900 at the beginning of the year to over s300,o00.000 It is simply the s15,OO0, O0o addition to the new construction
