ment of the Rocky Mountain division
of the Northern Pacific is in full
blast, with section crews all along
the main line of the system and on
the various branch lines removing the
supports that have served their time
and installing new ties underneath the

Two hundred and fifty thousand new
ties are being placed on the division
this spring. which is an average for
the annual replacement work, as from
100000 to 400, 900 ties have been used
for this purpose each year in the past.
Ties are considerably more expen-
sive now than in past years, the in
crease being about 90 cents tie. the
cost of each. including hauling. being
from so to 80 cents this year. This
means the tie replacement work will
cost the railroad several hundred thou
sand dollars. labor included.

Small MilIers object.

Though the Montana MiIlers' asso-
citation has asked the Montana trade
commission to fix the toll at 80 cents a
bushel for grinding hard wheat into
flour and mill feed for wheat owners,
individual millers representing smaller
mills, objected to the proposed sched-

this service for less than 45 cents a
bushel.
When the hearing concluded, the
commission stated ii would not be
considered definitely closed, but would
be kept open, and the request would
be made that the Millers' association
appoint a committee of five members

CASE OF BEN KAHN, NOW IN PRIs

HEARING
NEWS OF THE CAPITAL CITY
Small MiIIers of State Object to Rate
Of IS Cents per BusheI for Grind
ing Wheat.-crop Reports Show
Favorable Conditions

Helena.-The first case to reach the
supreme court, directly involving the
validity of the sedition act passed by
sembly and under which nearly 100
persons were convicted and sent TO the
penitentiary at Deer Lodge, came up
for hearing last week. Ben Kahn,
travelling salesman convicted in Car
bon county in March of last year and
and half years nor more than twenty
years, was the appellant in this case.
Kahn was born in Russian Poland
and is a citizen of the United States,
coming here with his parents when
two years old. He got into an argu-
the food regulations and, it is said,
made the statement that 'HoOverism
is joke. Nobody pays any attention
to 1t. This is a rich mans war" Then
he defended the sinking of the Lusi-
tania. it is alleged. He was arrested
for sedition, tried, convicted, moved
for new trial and appealed from the
order denying the tr1al.
The contention was raised In his be-
half that the sedition law conflicts
with sections eight and ten of article
one of the constitution of the United
States and with section ten of article
three of the constitution of Montana.
1t is charged the act assumes to legis-
late with regard to the war making
powers Of the United States and that
this is an exclusive prerogative of the
federal law making body.
The attorney general contends that
if Kahn's view is upheld, it deprives
the state of aiding in any manner,
shape or form toward the winning of
The war.
The court has the case under adj
visement.
