NOT TWO BOX CARS:
MATTER BEING HEARD
Proposed to Move Station al
Scribner and Erect
Substitute

Judge Ira B. Mills, chairman of the
Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse
commission, conducted hearing this
morning at the Hotel Markham on
application of residents of Pinewood
and vicinity for adequate station fac
ilities at that point. Pinewood was
represented at the hearing by u large
delegation, which gave testimony in
dicating that the community was
growing rapidly, was contributing
substantial sums monthly to the 500
road and that two superannuated box
cars do not constitute proper facilies
either for man or freight.
Officials Of the 500 made an offer
to move the present depot at Scribner
out to Pinewood and to provide the
former place with smaller but still
adequate accommodations and wheth-
er this proposition will be acceptable
to Scribner interests is not known.
Judge Mills announced that the
order of the commission in this case
will be forth coming in a few days.

LEAGUE HELD NO BAR
TO IRISH FREEDOM

Washington. June 27.-Assertions
that the league Of nations would
handicap the effort for Irish freedom
were denied in the senate by Senator
Phelan, democrat, Of California.
"Some persons interested in the
Irish cause" he said, "have objected
to Article 10 because they fear it
would guarantee the territorial in
tegrity of the British empire. This
it does only with respect to external
aggression Now. Irish independence
can be worn either by the voluntary
act of England, a successful revolu-
tion or the Intervention by superior
force from the outside"

Strongly "No."
(By United Press, }

Fargo, June 27.-With nearly one
third OF the estimated vote in this af-
ternO0n, returns indicated the two
most important bills referended and
possibly all of the seven Nonpartisan
league measures will remain on
North Dakota's statutes.
The industrial commission and

printing bill and educational bill
were running behind. An average on
all seven bills showed the anti
leaguers leading by about 1000 votes
in 323 precincts.
Grand Forks. June 27.-Lagging
returns from the rural districts make
1t impossible to ascertain the vote in
the Nonpartisan referendum, held
yesterday. Grand Forks county voted

House bill 1923. the immigration
bill.
' House bill II, the industrial COM
mission bill.
House bill "a, the judicial redis-
tricting bill.

There is every indication that a

turns showed large majority
against the Townley regime. How

Project.
TWENTY MILLIONS COST
O. H. Huston Returns Here
From Conference at
Knoxville.

Plans for the erection of a series
OF hydro-electric power plants be-
tween Chattanooga ana Knoxville on
the tennessee river are now we'll un-
DER way. The stupendous project is
Deing promoted by the Tennessee
River Improvement association, the
KNOXVILLE Board OF Commerce, and a
number of private individuals, C. H.
Huston, of this city, president of the
Tennessee River Improvement as
ISOLATION, spent Thursday and mart of
Friday in Knoxville in conference
with promoters of the plan.
An effort is to be made to secure
aid from the federal government in
financing the plan as was done In the
case of the Muscle Shoals hydro
electric power plants. The plan pro-
poses the erection of six or more
dams across the Tennessee river be-
tween Chattanooga and Knoxville at
cost OF approximately $50 200, 900. II
Is claimed by engineers that the cost
of production will lie $3.50 per horse
power per year. 1t will cut the cost
or electric power for heating, lighting
and propelling purposes to fraction
The cheap electric power will even
tually mean new nitrate enterprises
and cheaper fertilizers.
Waldo Engineer.
w. G.. Waldo, a prominent construc-
ton engineer, who Is we'll known In
Chattanooga, having been connected
with the Muscle Shoals project, has
hA 20 fnt hiu
vision. It Is understood that the plan
contemplates the construction of sew
eral dams between Chattanooga and
Knoxville, the first being located only
about FIVE miles from Knoxville and
the last only very short distance
from Chattanooga. A huge storage
reservoir will be built on the French
Broad river II present plans are car
ried out. The reservoir will hold a
reserve water supply that will be
available during low water periods
and will enable the running Of the
hydro-electri plants at all seasons
of the year.
1t estimated that the fall between
the two cities is ITS feet. The distance
Is said to be about 100 miles by river
If the government builds, the dams
they will be classed as river improve
ments and charged to that account
by the federal government. The plan
Is to ask congress for the appropria-
ton through the Tennessee River I'm
provement association. When the pro-
Jects are completed the power rights
may be leased to one or more corpor-
atoms OF East Tennessee, giving cleo
trio power at a much small figure. At
each dam power plants, with n ca
pacity of 5000 horsepower can be
