ing will come the general address to
the people of the state.
Monday night the editors and the
governor enjoyed a banquet together
at the Adams hotel at which time the
governor took up large number of
matters in executive session which he
requested should not be published. He
wanted the editors of the state to I'M

may best know how to conduct the
editorial and news colunns. When

reply from that company in regard
to their decision in the matter. It
has now come to a point where their
action is awaited, although Mr.. Hoov-
err is being given a hearty cooper
alton in his work of verifying the
facts as presented by the board of
control of the association which rep
resents large majority of the people
in this territory. There is no doubt
in our mind but what this section
is on the verge of an era of great
development and that the people of
this section are going to put forth
their best efforts in accomplishing
this result. A sugar factory is the
crying demand and with united for
ces such as now exist, we see no reas-
on why this goal will not be accom-
plished.
Let us not forget at any time this
most important issue and be ready
to aid in any way within our power
to assist those who are doing active
work along this line. Our interests
are in common in this matter and we
are all going to receive a great bene-
fit in many ways by the establish
ment of modern sugar factory with
in our territory. The Great Western
Sugar company at the present time
have the matter in hand and it is
to be earnestly hoped that they will
report on the proposition in favor.

"U-Umw he observed, scanning
the screed wisely-"jUst so. Be seat
ed, miss, and l will fill the prescrip-
ton at once.
Ned proceeded back behind the
prescription case, slowly, however,
for he kept his customer in admir-
ing sight as long as possible. Then,
shielded from those timid but bright
eyes, he glanced again over the pre-
scTiptiOn.
Ned was not a registered pharma-
cist, but he had studied Latin and
chemistry. There were two compo-
nents of the prescription that were
familiar enough - soda and aqua

ingredient named, however, that
puzzled him A penciled word rep

"Capsules?" studied Ned. Hardly.
No, it isn't gum either What can
it be?"
He, ran over the bottles in the case
that bore labels beginning with G.

Cascara? Hardly. Cap-ah, have
it-capsicum."
It was not capsicum, in fact, but
Ned did not know that. He did not
hesitate, however. Soda was harm
less, water more so. Capsicum? Well, |
it might be 'bitey," but was an in
.nocent sort of ingredient outside of

daughter, with a sigh of dreariness.
"The doctor says most of his all

ines he's got a great swelling in his
throat that is going to end wretch

get out and occupy his mind it would

Ned sighed as the sprightly form
vanished through the doorway. He
had inherited a very comfortable for
tune within the week. He would
have given half of it to have had the
privilege of walking home with the
lovely maiden who had crossed his
path with dazzling effect.
Blair returned in a little while and
Ned seemed to have completely for
gotten an engagement he had pre-
ViOusly referred to. He narrated the
incident of his recent customer.
Blair scanned the prescription and
laughed.
you did very well for a novice
on the safe side, anyhow. CapsiCum?
It wasn't that, but it will do-that is,
unless the victim swallows the dose
prescribed raw. He'll do some ram
paging when he does"
Blair validated the impression ex-
pressed by Miss Wardell that Mr.
Wardel was something of a hypO-
chrondiac. Ned was not interested
in that, however. He piled Blair with
questions as to his charming visitor,
more and more interested at cOntin-
uous disclosures as to the rare quail
tiles of mind possessed by this lovely
maiden, the sort" he admired.

Railway Commission Asks Definite
Advice From Congressman
as to Federal Intent

Does the administration intend to
Confine trading strictly to grades and
prices for each grade below No. 1
Northern?" the state railway commits
sion asks in a wire filed with Rep.
George M. Young at Washington this
morning. "A large part of our CROP"
the commission advises Congressman
Young, may grade two. three or four,
because of weed seed. Such grain
would be taken on sample at price
cent or two lower than No. l. Can
such grain be sold op sample at prices
higher than those esta jlished for the
grade fixed by inspectiona. Question
involves millions to producers. Are
prives fixed maximum or minimum?''
"A spread Of ten cents the bushel
on half of our wheat crop, which is
entirely possible if the grades are en-
forced and the farmer deprived of
the privilege of selling by grade, would
mean loss of $3,OO0,OOO to the grain
growers this year." said j. A. Little,
rate expert with the state commission,
this morning. "lf the government in
sists that the farmer sell by grade,
fully half of our wheat will sell for
less than No. 1. 1t now appears that
the intention of the government is
to enforce the grades established by
its federal standards. If this is true,
it means the North Dakota farmer
will lose an average of ten cents the
bushel Oh probably half of his crop,
whereas if he could sell by sample the
wheat probably would bring within
cent or two of the price paid for
No. l."

One instance cited is two Americans

being insulted, having her hat torn
off. The correspondent reports that
the sailors did nothing improper or
contrary to good taste to invite the
attack and as far as could be learned
did not retaliatc.
Several parties paraded the streets
singing Sim Finn songs and perform
ing military evolutions. Some win
dows were broken. One party raided
the premises of an officers training
camp corps and stole Sc rifles, 80 re.
