Coal EACH EEK
Next Move for Priority on All
Rail Supply for North
west.

Minneapolis-Coal for the North.
west in an amount sufficient to bring
the weeks total up to 100000 tons has
begun moving up the lakes to Duluth,
Governor Preus was informed by H.
B. Spaacer, federal fuel administrator
The Governor was also informed
that as quickly as possible the allot-
ment would be increased to 1000, 900
tons weekly. Mr.. Spencer asked that
the northwestern states cooperate in
the distribution of this weekly supply
to give all industries and the various
sections equitable amounts. The coal
is being shipped to the Northwest un-
der the. priority orders recently issued.
Acting on the assumption that lake
movemet ont coal to the Northwest
would be insufficient, under most ia
vorable conditions, to supply North
west needs, C. A. Bruce, secretary of
the Twin City Coal exchange, announc-
ed that he would start a movement
for priority shipments of all-rail coal.
He will request GQYernor Preus and
Ivan Bowen, state fuel commissioner,
to lend their support. ..>
Regional committees appointed last
week by Fuel Administrator Spencer
are now on duty in the producing
fields.
According to telegram received by
Governor Preus from the geological
survey at Washington, the production
OF bituminous coal in the non-union
fields in West Virginia and Kentucky
is almost normal.

NUT Has HIGH FOOD VALUE
Seed Of Pinon IL Not az Fully Appre-
ciated in This Country az It's
Qualities Deserve.

Few fasteners are familiar with
the Indian nut, tiny but wonderfully
favored and nourishing pine tree Seed
This nut, which finds high favor on
New FORKS lower east side, is much
misunderstood. 1t is called an Indian
nut and mountain nut, but most peo-
pie believe it comes from China.
1t is found only in North and South
America and is the seed of the pinon
pine. 1t is about the size of a navy
bean, is autumnal brown in color, with
dapples and situations Of a deeper
brown, making it beautiful to look
at. 1t is highly charged with oil and
Is most delicious. 1t is the principal
food Of mountain squirrels or chip
hunks.
The wood of the tree which pro-
duces this seed Is the best firewood
in the world. 1t burns slowly, pro-
duces beautiful colors Of fame and
great heat It abounds most profuse-
ly in the temperate zone Rockies. The
Colorado Rockies produce 1t in great
quantities.
Another peculiar fact relative to the
pinon nut is that it finds no favor
in It's native country excepting among
the squirrels. There is little sale for
pinon nuts in the West, but the west
ern mountaineers make much pin
money gathering the nuts for the
markets of the big eastern cities.

The highest speed attained by an

EDWARD INDREHUS

Northern Headlight:-The demo cratic
party is not obliged to apologize for
their candidate for Governor. AS in
the past, the candidate chosen by our
party has always been a man Of the
highest type, mentally and morally and
this year is no exception to the rule.
Of likeable personality, Mr.. Indre-
hus combines with it grasp on public
affairs that commends him to all voters
who want square deal. His expert
ence on the farm has made him sense
the feelings and aspirations of the
toiler, while his service in the legisla-
ture has fitted him to cope with public
affairs in an intelligent manner.
One thing is certain. If Ed. Indre-
hus is elected governor, there will be
no recommendation for a state con-
stabulary. Also that Brooks Coleman
act will come in for "a repeal and the
street railways will be returned to the
supervision of the people, where they
belong. We do not wish to anticipate
Mr.. Indrehus' views, but We feel sure
that he will speak in nouncertain tones
on both of the above subjec cts.
A vote for Indrehus is vote for the
whole people and will serve notice that
the day Of catering exclusively to
special interests is gone.

COAL. :. RE :: 10 DAYS
Governor and Bowen Believe
Shipping will increase

st. Paul-Early relief from the coal
shortage in the Northwest appears
probable from advices received from
Washington which indicated that
movement of about $4,000 tons week
to this territory will begin at once.
With Eastern railroads sending men
to operate the mines in the non-union
nelds in Kentucky, West Virginia,
Ohlo and Tennessee, where supplies
Tor this district are expected to origi-
nate, rapid movement of fairly liberal
supplies to lower Lake Erie ports for
transportation to the Head of the
Lakes is expected.
Both the governor and Mr.. Bowen
believe that the strong recommends
tions OF the state during the past ten
days has had considerable influence
In the improvement of conditions
which have heretofore prevented the
disposition of coal.
Governor Preus said: IF the roads
brace up and increase the movement,
the production will show a consider
able increase. I believe the coming
week will see marked improvement
and that the flow of coal into the
Northwest will be greatly increased by
the placing of federal embargo on
shipments from the non-union fields in
the coal producing states"

Bees Stinu.

A bee loses it's sting and it's life
when 1t stings person. because of
the peculiar ia of the sting 1t is
usually wv.,.ES bee that stings
humans, for, although the queen has
sting, she generally uses it upon rivals
only. The working bees sting is just
a tube which carries the poison. The
tube is fitted with two sharply toothed
minute saws, which are driven into
the wound alternately. If the person
who is being stung remains perfectly
still, the bee can withdraw its sting
somewhat after the fashion of cork
screw-that is, by moving round in
circular direction. In which case, of
course, it lives to sting again. Usually,
however, the outraged human retail
ates on the bee, which, driven away,
perforce leaves it's sting, tearing away
portion of the stomach to which it
Is attached, and SO killing itself.

Equity Packing Co. Of Fargo involved
In $4,000 Mortgage.

Fargo, N. D.-The Northwest Audit
company Of Fargo has served notice
on the Equity Cooperative Packing
company here that the audit firm will
start foreclosure proceedings against

open account. The new board was
elected last winter at a meeting
where charges of mismanagement
were made against the former MANAGE

CONGRESS- Be:
READY TO ACT
Congress Should Be Prepared for
Special Strike Legislation,
Leaders Say.

Washington-Faced with probable
rejection of his latest rail strike set.
Element proposal by the striking rail-
way shopment and with a reply from
the executives as yet uncertain, Presi-
dent Harding has let it be known that
he is DESTROYS of having the house re-
convene Tuesday the 18th, prepared
to enact any legislation which might
be deemed advisable.
He has suggested to the leaders, it
was stated, that instead of marking
time with handful of members pres
ent after the house reconvenes that a
full membership be on hand so that
congress might function in case any
legislation is needed to carry out the
administrations program with re-
spect to the coal and railroad situa-
lions.
The President feels that there is no
the seriousness of the pres.
ent coal situation and perhaps the
seriousness of the rail situation.
The president, in his latest PROPOSE
ton to the railways and striking
shopmen, has found the "safe and sane
position of fairness and conserva-
tism," Chairman Ben Hooper of the
labor board announced in Chicago.
On many railroads, he said, the plan
can be carried out without any incon-
venience. More than $4,000 shopmen
had been laid off before the strike, he
said, and with the Increased work now
available so many men will be needed
that ION very large number of roads,
in my judgment, the question of SEN
iority would never arise.'

MRS. OLSEN, SENATOR.

Bryan's Commoner;-M Mrs. Peter
Olesen, or Mrs. Anna Dickie Olesen, as
the law requires it to be written on the
ballot, has received the democratic
nomination for senator in the state of
Minnesota. She was recommended by
the state convention and her selection
is the more complimentary because she
had as opponent Hon. j. Meighen,
one of the most popular democrats Of
the state pioneer progressive. Mrs.
Olesen is woman Of rare oratOrical
ability and is as sound in her political
principles as she is persuasive in pre-
senting them.
The statement which she issued is
characteristic of her. She. modestly
denies that her success is personal
tribute; she gives the credit to the
platform of the party. She says she
simply brought the platform to the
attention of the members Of the party,
and regards her nomination as an &C.
ceptance Of the platform. She is going
to make a thorough campaign of the
state. She is friend Of the common
people and one of the most sincere
champions the people have had in re-
cent years. It would not take the
democracy long to win the nation if
all the democrats followed her motto:
"Let US raise standard to which the
wise and honest can rally-the event is
in the hands of God.''
Every democrat in Minnesota should
rally to her support. Every progress
sive republican should give her a vote;
every woman in Minnesota should feel
a pride in sending to the nation 8 CAPT
tol such a splendid type of the woman
ly woman-wife, mother citizen.
The Commoner expresses the hope
that, when the votes are counted, it may
be able to send its hearty congratu]a-
lions to Mrs. Olesen, Senator.
