IS MODIFIED
Supreme Court Recognizes
Power Of Railroad
Commission.

According to a dispatch received
from Bismarck late this afternoon,
the supreme court today modified its
decision in the Bismarck utility case,
permitting the railroad. commission to
continue with the Fargo and Grand
Forks gas and electric rate cases as
scheduled.
The court in it's former decision
had taken from the railroad COM
mission the'power to fix utility rates,
which would have prevented it from
action in the Fargo and Grand Forks
rate cases.
In commenting on the decision Of
the supreme court today, City Attor-
ney George, "A. Bangs said: IT had
no doubt that the railroad commits
sion had full authority to , ~reEulate
the rates of private corporations do.
ing public utility service. The Jaw is
too clear for serious doubt and the
statement by the supreme court to
the contrary was undoubtedly an
oversight occasioned by the fact that
>the court was considering another
phase of the law entirely"

Erected In N. D.


In today's sNorInanden published
by Poo Thorson, who in 1912 was a
delegate to the Progressive copven-
ton in Chicago whiua nominated
Theodore Roosevelt Tor president, it is
suggested that q statue be erected in
North Dakota to ~perpetuate me
memory of the late ex-presidents
residence in this state. The Norman
den writes editorially:
With good reason North Dakota
may credit herself with having con-
tributed to the moulding OF Roosevelt.
the most typical American of the age,
and the state can find no more strik-
ing way Of honoring herself ana her
great son than by erecting q monu-
ment in his honor. The logical place
for such a monument would, accord
ing to the Normanden, be in front of
the state house in Bismarck. Roose-
velt's small log house is standing
there, too.
"A Roosevelt monument would re-
main as a permanent proof to the
present and future generations Of the
opportunities which this country at
fords to her sons provided they pos
sess an inf1exible will. unlimited cour-
age, honest intentions and a sincere
faith in themselves and their causes
In the article several details con
corning Roosevelt's ranch life at Me-
dora, N. D., more than thirty years
ago, are given.

for the complete consolidation Of the
W exchanges is September IS. 2
AT the time of the transfer of tho

ern, which was made while the war
was yet in progress it was thought
that at least is months, or until Jan.
/, 1920, would be required for such
consolidation. Orders werc gwen at
once for two switch boards, and 9TH
er appliances, which will be neces-
sary to add to the present equipment
to make central service adequate. and
it was found possible to fill the Grand
Forks order with a switch board
change, saving four or five months
thereby in the time required to con-
solidate the two Grand Forks en-
changes. The expense for installing
suchs appliances was estimated at
about 100000, to be borne by the
telephone company. The new sys-
