Minot Citizens May Become Interest.
ed in Potato Warehouse


Minot citizens and farmers are very
favorable to the plan of building .
potato warehouse in Minot. One plan
is to have the farmers sign notes in
the association, the money to be
furnished by the War Finance Corpor-
alton through the local banks. Some
of the Minot bankers are not favorable
to this plan, for even though the mon
ey would be furnished by the War Fl.
nance Corporation, the local banks
would still be held responsible for
the obligations.
A number of the bankers favor the
plan Of the businessmen furnishing
the bulk of the money and letting the
farmers who are able come in on the
proposition. A potato warehouse,
with a capacity Of 100000 bushels,
could be built for $20,O00.00. It is
believed that $50 Minot men can
readily be found who would furnish
$100 each and so farmers can be
found who would furnish the other
$4,000. The Minot banks will be
called upon to finance the cost of
much Of the seed and by this plan,
they will be able to furnish an abun-
dance Of seed. A meeting is to be
called next week to consider some
plan. One meeting has already been
held.

MAJOR HANLEY DELIVERS
ARMISTICE DAY ADDRESS

Minot observed Armistice day in an
appropriate manner Friday. Prac-
tically every place of business was
closed thruout the day and at IL
o'clock the entire city halted for two
minutes to do honor to the nations
unknown hero who was buried at Ar
lington.> A firing squad in front Of
the Leland fired three volleys to the
west and Bugler Clare McLane sound
ed taps. Pedestrians stood with
heads bowed during the two minutes.
The program at the high school aud
itorium in the afternoon was well at
tended. John Howard with the high
school band furnished patriotic music.
The stage was decorated with Ameri-
can flags and muskets were stacked.
The program opened with bugle call
and the invocation was delivered by
Rev. G. L. Roy White. C.. C. Hvam-
bsal sang "Ring Out Sweet Bells of
Peace. the song that was dedicated
to the allied armies at the close of
war. The audience sang America.
Miss Lucille Carlson read "In Flanders
Fields" and placed beautiful wreath
on the stacked arms.
F. L. Blume, commander Of William
G. Carroll Post, American Legion,
made a plea to the people of Minot
to not forget the soldiers who came
back from war while paying tribute
to those who gave up their lives. The
disabled soldier should also be recog-
nized and given his honor" Mr.. Blume
said.
Major J. NJ. Hanley Of Mandan gave
one of the best patriotic addresses
ever heard in this city, He was in
troduced by Major Person. 1T is in
the heart Of the returned soldier that
there shall never be another war and
the prayers of the country go out for
the success of the disarmament con-
ference in Washington" he said.
while we agree there should be no
more wars, we must remember that
wars are likely to come, and let US in
our patriotism say that if another war
does come, it shall be in the cause
Of right"
The motion picture film, "Under
Two Flags, showing actual war
scenes in France was shown. The
benediction was offered by Rev; D.
J. Gallagher and the audience sang
"The Star Spangied Banner.

John N. Hagan Moves Out of His State
Home Built House

John N. Hagan, commissioner of lab
or and agriculture and member of the
state industrial commission, and as
such director Of the Home Builders
Association Of the state, has moved
out of his house built for him by the
state. He claims the house was to
have cost him $4,000 with 5000 for ex-
tras. He received notice that the
house was to have cost him $8,S89.98
and he does not propose to pay it. The
house is small story and a half
structure.
1t is said that the 81 houses built
by the state will be about 40 per cent
higher than the estimated cost orig
inally.
The Fargo Courier-News today
says: "Before the members of the
present Industrial Commission leave
office it is hoped they will put forth
statement showing just why there was
such wide divergence between prom
Use and performance in the Home
Building Association"

. Charbonneau Buys Roots In.
terest In Auto Concern

j. A. Charbonneau, local capitalist,
has purchased the stock of E. D. Root
in the Westlie- Motor Co. and
will Immediately enter upon his dut-
les in the active management of the
concern. Mr.. Charbonneau is well
known in the auto industry, having
been connected with garage at Rol-
lette for six years and for year
owned garage at Ryder, selling out
his Ryder interest to Paul Rode about
a year ago. He is an extensive real
estate owner, having large property
interests at various points in the state.
We are informed that there will be
no change in the corporate title for
period, as the title Westlie- Root Motor
Co. has become widely and favorably
known throughout this district. For
the past year Mr.. Charbonneau has
been city salesman for the firm here.
Mr.. Root, in conversing with repre-
sentative of the Independent, states
that he will assume the management
Of the Westlie garage and salesroom
at Parshall, going to that point on
Monday next to take charge. His
family will remain here in the city
until spring. Mr.. Root was former
ly in charge of q large farm in the
vicinity of Parshall and has an ex-
tensive acquaintance throughout that
section which will be invaluable to
him in business way. Thomas Neil
son, who has been in charge Of the
Westlie garage. at Parshall, will re-
main with Mr.. Root and be his as,
sistant. - ~s~sFaa..
The Westlie- Root Motor Co. is one
Of the best known and largest Ford
agencies in the state. They purchas-
ed the Moore Motor Co. about year
ago. Their sales of Ford cars and
Fordson tractors are said to surpass
the sales Of any other agency west Of
the Twin Cities. 80:

Finance and Markets

NEW YORK, March 14.-Practically
the same adverse influences which
contributed in measurable degree to
the depression of stock market prices
last week were operative again today,
number of new low records being
registered.
The foreign situation, the precarious
position of the railroads and the dead
lock existing in some leading indus
tries were once more factors which
precipitated fresh liquidation and en-
boIdened the shorts to extend their
commitments.
Statements of earnings submitted
by transportation companies and man
ufacturers offered a steady decline of
railroad tonnage and the Indifferent
attitude of consumers.
At intervals the stock list suggested
support of the better grade issues ,es-
pecially rails, but heavy selling OF
Reading at an extreme decline OF over
8 points in the final hour and fresh
attack upon Atlantic Gulf. which ended
at a net loss of almost points. pro-
voked much confusion. Sales. 6oo,O0o
shares.
Call money continued to hold at Z
per cent and offerings of time funds
were scarce, though unchanged from
last weeks quotations. Dealings in
foreign exchange contracted, British
and French rates easing, while Scand1-
navian remittances hardened.
Weakness in Pennsylvania railroad
5s and the new 61ss the former losing
liz points and the latter a large frac-
ton. typified the reactionary bond
market Liberty 31as made a new low
record for the year at $3.50. Total
sales, par value, S10.175,00o.
Chicago Exchange
CHICAGO, March 14.-Considerable
strength developed in the wheat mar
ket today owing largely to word of ex-
port buying at the seaboard. Scanu-
ness of rural offerings tended also to
lift prices. Demand here, however,
was confined almost altogether to
shorts. Opening quotations, which
varied from unchanged figures to 3
cents higher with March s1.59 to
S1.6O1h and May s1.51 to S1.531a, were
followed by reactions from initial top
| figures.
Corn reflected the action of wheat.
After opening unchanged to IS cents
higher, including May at So cents to
l69A cents, the market steadied with
part of the extreme gain lost.
Oats were firmer with other cereals
starting u cent off to u cent ad-
vance, May AVS cents to 431s cents
and hardening all around before be-
ginning to react.
Provisions showed weakness as re-
suit of free selling on the part of com
mission houses.
