pnnyfl argued that the'district court
Is without jurisdiction In such mat­
ters that the court has no means of
determining whether the rates charg­
ed by any public utility arc equitable,
and that the city's first recourse is
through the state railway commis­
sion. City Attorney O'Hare, repre­
senting the city of Bismarck, argued
that the question Involved^ was a
breach of contract, inasmuch as the
company's franchise specified the max­
imum fee whicli might be charged for
service, a maximum which the pro­
posed increase exceeds. ItJs expected
the supreme court will hand down its
decision within a week. In the mean­
time, Bismarck consumers of gas were
delighted to lind a "surcharge" run-1
nlng all tho way from .r0 cents to
tacked to their October bills, and rep-j
resenting the company's arbitrary in­
crease.

BISMARCK THEATRE TO OPEN
MONDAY.
After being closed for a number of
weeks, due to the flu the lid has fin­
ally been lifted and the Bismarck
theatre opens Monday with a noted
Paramount picture, "The Kaiser's
Shadow," in which Dorothy Dalton-is
starred.
This is one of those intense, thrill­
ing and dramatic pictures with the
jilot woven around iiie working of a
band, the Cerman secret service spies,
who are finally trapped by the cour­
ageous sliero. Miss Dalton.
This picture has been highly prais­
ed where it has been shsown in lie

at the Bismarck. Monday niglit.
