NEW EXCHANGE TELEPHONE RATES
EFFECTIVE MAY l, 1919.

A new schedule of telephone exchange rates be-
came effective in Dillon May by direction of the
Operating Board of the United States Telegraph
and Telephone Administration, acting under the
order of the Postmaster General of the United
States.
AS you know all of the lines and property of this
company are in the possession control and are be-
ing operated by the United States Government un-
der the direction of the Postmaster General OF the
United States.
The new rates are necessary in order that addi-
tional revenue may be secured by the government
to meet the increased operating expenses. The
causes which make greater telephone revenue
necessary are due to the new conditions and the
new price levels introduced by the and are en-
tirely beyond the control of the United States Tel
,egraph and Telephone Administration or of the
Telephone Company.
More than two years ago the Company foresaw
that the telephone system would be operated at
loss unless the rates could be adjusted to me-, the
increasing costs of all elements entering into the
wsrOduction of service. A similar rate adjustment
would have been unavoidable under private control
and the new rate schedule is practically the same
we would have sought in 1918 if the government
had not taken possession of our property.
AS stated by the Postmaster General the own
aars of the telephone system do not benefit IN any
way from rate changes Practically all of the in
creased operating expenses which require this ad-
ditional revenue are due to increased wages paid
70 employees to enable them to meet the new con-
.alitions of life in the present day.
1t is neither practicable nor desirable to reduce
wages, and so far as wages are concerned we be-
ieve that portion of the increased operating eX-
Oenses to be permanent.
The new rate schedule is fair and reasonable and
the percentage of increased revenue which it will
produce is much lower than the increased cost of
their services and commodities of a similar char
acter
Complete detailed information about the new
rates may be obtained at the managers office We
are making every effort to change our records
promptly and your courteous consideration Will
be appreciated. The new rate for your service IS
shown on your statement for May l. MA

EVERY DAY is
BIGGEST DAY IN
CITY'S BUSINESS
Conditions Reported Never to
Have Been Better in
Town's History

Every day is a biggest day with US
this fall. We have just sent out ter
emergency wire orders for merchanl-
ise. We have never had a month :
business which has approached that
for September" said r. NJ. Bergeson of
S. e. Bergeson & Sons, clothiers, to-
day.
Department stores, hardware dealers,
merchants in every line have similar
report to make. They state that the
volume Of business is not only the
greatest in their career in this city,
but that there is far larger percent.
age Of cash business, and that cole =
tions have never been better.
Although central North Dakota has
had a very ordinary crop year, money
seems more plentiful than ever before.
Automobile dealers have more calls
for cars than they can supply, and the
farmers, especially, are buying better
classes Of cars. Women shoppers are
paying as much for ordinary cloth
coats as they would have paid for fur
garments two or three years ago, and
they are also investing literally il,
furs, which are almost 100 percent
higher than they were before the war.
Bismarck bank clearings for Septenl-
ber We're only few thousands short Of
a million dollars, which is by far the
largest on record. 4 Local railway
agents report the heaviest volume If
freight and passenger traffic for any
September in the history Of the city.
The capital city has enjoyed an un,
precedented increase in population
during the last twelve months, and 1t
is now estimated to he close to the
10000 mark, as compared with 7,500
when the last state census was taken,
three years ago. The city is adding a
third of a million dollars worth Of
paving. to its already extensive street
Improvement district, and is planning
to spend 100000 on other municipal
betterments, to include a $1,000 out
door swimming pool, during the year.

SEPTEMBER WAS
BIGGEST EVER
ON N. P. ROAD
Passenger and Freight Traffic
at This Point Busted"
All Records

September was the busiest month the
North Pacific railroad office here ever
had. Both the freight and passenger
traffic were very heavy, incoming and
outgoing business contributing to the
total volume. If it had not been for the
temporary embargo on certain ship.
ments during the month due to thu
railroad strike the record business
would be even higher.
The freight business of the railroad
was particularly active with shipments
of automobiles predominating. Food
stuff and machinery were next In i'm.
portance and these three classes Of
freight were the greatest Of all this
type of traffic handled.
More than eight percent Of the pas
senger business, the remainder being to
distant points. The fair at Mandan
and the Wilson Bay celebration here
helped to bring the total to record
figures. One Of the outstanding
features of the passenger travel We're
the number Of persons travelling to dis
tant points.
The shipments of live stock and feed
were heavy during the past month, due
in great measure to the drouth in
the western part Of the state and in
Montana. NJ

UGLAND STOLE
HIS OWN FLAX.
FROM TRUSTEE?
Attorney General Rearrests
Knox Banker Recently
Given Parole

David H. Ugland, only recently
released from the state peniten-
tiary after serving nine months for
embezzling about 100000 from
the Security State bank of Knox,
is again sought on a warrant is
sued on complaint of Attorney
General LANCER charging grand
larcency. LANCER objected to the
paroling of Ugland two weeks ago
by the state board of pardons, de-
claring that if Ugland was to serve
but nine months for making free
with 100000 Of other peoples
money, there is many man in
the state penitentiary for stealing
$40 to 5000 who should be free.
Asserting that this parole is an
outrage and perversion of JUS
tice, the attorney general by wire
last night directed States Attor-
ney Victor Wardhope of Benson
county to re-arrest the Knox bank
er. The new complaint alleges
that in October, 1918, after the al
legged wrecking Of the Knox bank
had been discovered, and after R.
H. Shure of Fargo had been
named trustee, Ugland extracted
four loads Of flax from the trus-
tees custody. Ugland is ALLEGED to
have secured the assistance of a
farmer residing near Knox who
drove the fax to an elevator at
Pleasant Lake, where it was sold,
and the proceeds, LANCER claims,
were split with Ugland. No date
has yet been set for the prelimi-
nary hearing.

Sox Slightly Favored
There is no doubt that the
White Sox will go into the fray

The little betting that has been
recorded shows odds from 6 to s

White Sox money is in evidence,
