since that time. A big crowd witnessed
the game.
The visitors got their only point in
the first half on free throw. Nineteen
points were registered by Little Falls
in each half. The local boys played
with machine-like precision and they
had the Aitkin boys guessing all the
time. Bastien led in. basket shooting
with five baskets and Fortier and Bak-
er each made four. Tanner got three
and Kiewel one. Captain Niche was
unable to play owing to injuries re-
ceived in practice.
Ware. one of the Aitkin forwards,
was hurt in the first half, when he
collided with Kiewel and fell hack:

TELEPHONE COMPANY SEEKS RE-
LIEF m COURTS

Following the refusal Of the Mime
sofa Railroad and Warehouse Commits
sion to grant rate increases to the
Northwestern Bell Telephone Company
and the Tri-State Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, the first named COM
pany has applied to the United States
District Court for relief, alleging confis-
cation of its property as a result Of the
denial Of rate increases. In this con-
nection, w. B. T. Belt, president Of
the Northwestern company, has issued
the following statement:
ION February 8, 1921, the Minnesota
Railroad and Warehouse Commission is
sued an order denying any financial re-
lief to the Northwestern Bell Telephone
company thus closing finally the hear
ing started with its order dated Sep
TENDER "a, 1918, making no finding cx+
cept that the present rates are reason
able for the service furnished.
Pursuant to the order of the COM
mission, on it's own motion to investi-
gate our telephone rates, charges and
practices, the Northwestern company
has spent in the last three years ap-
proximately 100000 in making inven-
tory and appraisal of its property in
the State of Minnesota and in making
and representing to the Commission
complete records of all of its opera
tions, earnings, expenses and justifica-
ton of its various rules and regulations
now in effect.
"In it's order, the commission makes
no finding as to whether or not the
company is receiving sufficient revenue
to properly operate and maintain its
plants and make fair return to the
investors in the business. At the time
the commission issued this order, there
was before it in the record, and verified
by its own employees, the facts which
showed conclusively that the company
was not receiving adequate or reason
able revenues.
"The interstate operations of the
company in Minnesota during the year
1920 resulted in a net deficit Of more
than $350.000 after paying it's interest
charges. Therefore, the stockholders
not Only failed to have any earnings
on their investment but were compelled
to stand this deficit.
"On account of these conditions and
|because the commission, by it's order
made final disposition of the entire rate
investigation, as well as our request
for emergency relief, we were com
PEELED to resort to the courts. not only
for relief for ourselves financially.
but to enable us to properly protect the
telephone service of the public in the
State.''

per hour when the accident occurred.
Another car was coming from the op-

the sudden turn caused the car to turn
turtle and it made three turns, landing

Did you ever see fairies dancing on

proof that they are not there. Nobody

unseen world which not the strongest

the supernal glory and beauty beyond
