A complaint has been. made by the
contractors who have in course of
construction the new parochial school
of St. Alphonsus parish, that the
trespass of children, who make it a
gathering place for play evenings has
for some weeks past developed itself

the city authorities to abate. The
building is q three and one half story
brick structure, open from the base
ment to the roof some forty feet over
head. The contractor are still the re.
:sponaible parties until the building
is completed. Parents can cooperate
an keeping their children out of dam
ger of a bad fall or other injury in
playing in and Ground the building.
1t is also intimated that jnstances
point to where work being done has
been interfered with and mischievious
pranks played that give rise to. COM
plant against these youthful tres
passsers. The nuisance is one that
must be put stop to and parenta
can make it easier if they warn their
children to keep away from the
building until the workmen have
chance to complete their job.

Freight Rates
Heavy Burden
Il Will Mean Eleven Million
Dollar Increase Here In
North Dakota

When the order of the interstate
commerce commission granting 35
per cent increase on western railroads
becomes operative. North Dakota's
freight bill will reach the staggering
total Of SAP. 900. 600 annually. In
the event the state railroad commits
sion authorized corresponding in.
crease on shipments within the Flick
ertail states approximately 81, OOO-
600 more will be added to the freight
bill. A hearing is scheduled for
Bismark August IL at which time all
of the railroads doing business in
North Dakota will ask for a 35 per
cent increase on North Dakota ship
ments. 1t is expected that the new
interstate freight rates will become
effective about Aug. 25th. The
price of passenger tickets will be
raised August Goth. When they
appear before the state railroad COM
mission attorneys for North Dakota
railways will present the argument
that the Esch Cummins railroad bill
has rendered all state freight legis-
lation null and void. The commits
sion is not expected to accept this
contention, however. Attorneys N.
