BUSINESS SITUATION
RAISED DEMAND FOR
| north DAKOYACOAL
c. w. M'Donnel Cites Shipping
Figures to Northwest
Advisory Board

Minneapolis, Jan. 28.-RS0eneral
economic conditions during the last
year induced q demand for cheaper
fuel, resulting In an increased mine
output Of Ignite coal In North Da-
kota, G. w. Mcdonnell, member OF
the state railroad commission, report
ed Thursday to the northwest advi-
sorry board Of which he Is q state vice
chairman for North Dakota.
Railroad transportation figures show
that interstate shipments Of Ignite In
1881 exceeded the 1880 shipments. Nc
Donnell said, while rail shipments OF
Ignite within the state fell off during
the last year because much Of this
traffic was carried by truck.
while interstate shipments In 1880
show falling off Of 3o,178 tons. -
compared with 1870, the 1891 figures
show an increase over 1880 OF 32,311
tons, or 2,142 tons more than In 1879.
"Intrastate figures show an entire
ly different situation; 1880 shows .
falling off OF l10O84 tons, compared
with 1929, and 1891 shows a further
decline Of 236, lat, compared with 1880.
or loss for the two years OF 346,23l
tons"
Mcdonnell cited figures showing
that in 1929 rail shipments Of Ignite
totaled 132,l51 tons Interstate, and
1912, 666 tons intrastate; in 1880 In
lterstate shipments totaled 101 976 tons
and interstate 1882 $50; in 1891 inter-
state shipments totaled 1928 tons,
land intrastate 900. 4S5.
There are several contributing
causes for the intrastate showing.
mcdonald said. 1.-THE freight rate In
crease in 1929 drove large volume "a
the trucks. The use Of natural gas
for heating in Williston, Dickinson
Mandan, Bismarck, and seven or eight
lother towns Of considerable size has
;; displaced q large amount Of Ignite
There is no doubt, however. that thu
mine output has increased, but the
figures are not yet available.
General business conditions the
past year have induced many to use
the cheaper fuel. Many farmers and
others owning trucks are using them
for delivering Ignite direct from thu
mines. The advertisement Of truck
man in Bismarck newspaper yester-
lday quoted q splendid grade Of Ignite
delivered, for $2.60.
Because of the length Of haul. thu
trucks have not, as yet, interfered
with the interstate movement OF ug-
mite by rail-"

CLAIMS FARMER IS
OPPOSED TO BEER
Louis J. Taber, Master Of Ma.
tionaI Grange, Testifies
on Bingham Bill

Washington, Jan. 28-@-T The
American farmer was described
Thursday as opposed to beer.
Louis j. Taber, master of the Ma
tional Grange, was the first opponent
to the Bingham four per cent beer
bill to be heard by the senate manu-
features subcommittee. Proponents
Of the measure already have testified
Taber said farmers were against
the bill on social, moral and eco
nomic grounds"
I'VE oppose this BILL" he said, "be-
cause we favor the 18th amendment
and desire its retention. It's prepos-
ferrous to say we can have beer and
the 18th amendment at the same
time"
Taber said experience had proved
to the farmer that he received less
for products going into liquor than
for any other similar article going in
to food. :.
"A million drinks of beer and q
million drinks Of whisky" he said
takes small amount of grain COM
pared with q million glasses Of milk
and million porkchops."
do you mean to say" asked Sen
ator Bingham (R., Comm author Of
the bill, that If person wants q
glass Of beer he will take pork chop
instead?"
I'm not making that point" Tabel
replied. TIN trying to show the in
significance Of the relationship o.
grain to liquor and the substantial
relationship Of grain in food"

North Dakota Passes
It's Red Cross Quota

Fargo, N. D., Jan. 28.-(F-North
Dakota's Red Cross drought relief
campaign in cash and pledges has
passed the 100000 mark.
With five counties still at work on
final cleanup, it is probable the state
will build fund Of $4,000. said Gov.
George F. shafer, announcing the
drives completion on advices from
Wesley G. Mcdowell. secretary Of the
state committee.
Adams county's drive Is not quite
complete; Dunn expects to raise 5000
more. Foster has not completed all
its arrangements: Logan plans on
further contributions: Mcintosh IS IN
the final stages Of its campaign: and
Sargent has certain details to COM
plete.
The success Of the state Red Cross
drought fund drive with several
county committees still working
should be a matter Of genuine graft
fication to every citizen Of North Da-
kota, said Governor Shafer.

THE WHOLE SHOW.

This item is little old, but will bear
repeating:
It concerns an Omaha jobbing house
and a customer in a small Iowa town
A shipment of goods received by the
customer was rejected as unsatisfactory
The jobber prepared to institute suit
for collection and wrote to the rail-
road agent at the village for informa-
ton about the arrival of the mer-
chandise; to the president of the bank
for information concerning the finan-
cial standing of their customer; to the
mayor of the city asking him to recon-
mend a good lawyer to handle their
case; and to the merchant himself
threatening suit, if he did not make
payment at once.
All the desired information came in
a single letter as follows:
81 received your letter telling me
had better pay up
II am railroad agent here and re-
ceived the letter you wrote the agent
Il am president and sole owner of the
local bank and can assure you of my
financial standing.
"As the mayor of the city, I hesitate
to refer you to lawyer, since I am
the only member of the bar in this
vicinity.

church here, would tell you to go to

NOT A THREAT.

Charles Cheney, political writer in
the Minneapolis Journal:
ut Is a coincidence that four of
the nine congressmen-elect have been
opponents of Senator Thomas D. Schan.
MagnuS johnson was defeated by Schall
in the 1928 election. Theodore
Cmistianson lost to Schall in the Re
publican primary of 1880, and in the
fall election, Senator Schalps opponents
were Einar Hoidale, democrat, and
Ernest Bundeen, farmer-labor. Now
these four, representing three political
parties, all win places on the states
congressional delegation and will join
the senator at Washington.
"MagnuS Johnson's victory, leading
the entire nine congreSSmen-elect, was
a remarkable comeback for the Kim
ball veteran. After his defeat for the
senate in 1924, he ran for governor in
1925 and was badly beaten. Since then
he has not been a candidate for Office
'"The most striking comeback of all
was made, however, by Ernest Lundeen
Since his defeat for reelection to con-
gress in 1918, he never had ceased try
ing. He has been a candidate in every
election since, twice for United States
senator, once for chief justice, but
generally for congress. Fourteen years
of Illustration eneded in victory in

FINDS TELEPHONE LINE
SAFELYREACHES CAMP
Anton Murge Lost for Three Nights and Four Days in the
kawishiwi District, Now Home After Trying Battle
With Cold and Hunger.

Anton Murgel, who was lost in the
forest on the South Side of the South
Kawishiwi between the river and Gabro
Lake for three nights and four days,
returned to his home in this city Fri
day evening showing no bad effects
of his trying experience more than
one frozen foot, which may be serious,
and some frosted toes which are doing
fine under the care of physicians.
Mr.. Murgel in company with his son,
Robert Merhar, Henry and Eugene Fill
son and Paul Yadlosky were in hunt
ing camp about six miles from the half
way on the South Kawishiwi On
Tuesday afternoon Murgel started out
alone in southerly direction from
camp 10 secure deer. He left camp
at about 2:30 and thinks he had gone
several miles when he shot buck and
dressed it, putting piece of the liver
of the slain animal into his pocket.
After placing the carcass on rocky
outcrop he started for the return to
camp. Walking hard in storm raging
on that day, darkness overlook him and
for the first time he came to the con-
clusion that he was lost.
Realizing this fact he gathered wood
and built fire alongside of which and
with exercise when he felt drowSinesS
overcoming him, he put in the night.
The following morning he resumed his
rush through the woods and again
night overlook him. The matches in
his pocket had become damp and re-
fused TO light when he attempted a
fire the second night. However, he
built a brush shelter under spruce
tree and with stamping his feet and
running about another night was spent.
The third night was repetition of
the second. Again a brush shelter and
an all night run around tree.
Drowsiness was conquered in this man
ner. On the fourth morning he started
again in his quest for some point he
could recognize and thus find his way
out This day he started north, the
sun giving him the direction. Along
about noon he heard a shot and little
later, two more. Rapidly making his
way in the direction of the shooting
he came upon trail and little later
Ia camp in which was wood and stove
but no matches.
Leaving this camp he started out
again in the direction towards the
Stoney road. This brought him to a
telephone line and getting his bear
ings he walked to the camp he had left
on Tuesday. On arrival at the camp
he started fire and took off his rub
bers and sox to dry them out. He
treated his frosted feet with snow and
later slipped on his rubbers and went
to the river cutting a hole in the ice
and getting cold water to drink and
with which to treat his feet.
While engaged in this task, Peter
Prebelich and Henry Filson came to the
camp and found him there. After dry
ing the sox, Prebelich, Filson and Muir
gel went out in search of the deer he
had killed the first day but were un-
successful and the trip to the road was
begun, Murgel walking all the way. At
the road searching party was en-
countered with sirens and other noise

We don't know what the
county commissioners had up
their sleeve when they made
the announcement that no more
deputy clerks outside of Du-
luth, Virginia and Hibbing, be
allowed to issue marriage IL
censes after December 81, but
do know that this move will
cost those contemplating mar
riage much more than the saw
ings affected. Thirty dollars
has been paid to the deputy
clerk for marriage licenses so
far this year in Ely. There may
be one or two licenses issued
before the end of the year and
maybe the fees to be paid the
deputy will amount to about
So a month. This will be some
saving to the county?
The nearest place from Ely
to secure a license after the
first of the year will be Vir-
ginia, a distance of so miles
from here. Figure your loss
