THE FUtt QUMTION.
Bismarck, Feb. 11, 1S0«.
To the Record:
8enator» and members from those
parts of the state which have been cut
off from the outside world by snow
blockades have been making the lives
of the usually deliberate and easy-go
ing state railway commission abnor
mally strenuous of late. The railways
of the state—like all others through
out the nation—now recogniie the fact
that when a state or federal govern
ment gives the right of eminent do
main to a railway or kindred trans
liortation company, it has a right to
exact certain things in the way of re
turn, one of these things being the
power to regulate to a certain extent
the business of such company, to the
end that the power granted by the
public may not be used for the pub
lic's injury. Therefore, during the
snow blockade of the present winter,
the commissioners, through Chairman
Diesem and Secretary Hammond, have
been able to secure from railway offi
cers daily reports of the work that
has been done during the previous
twenty-four hours in opening the lines
of North Dakota- At the suggestion
of senators, members and other citi
zens here from other pans of the
state, the officers above named have
promptly used ail their influence for
the hurrying of the work. Every let
ter or telegram received by members
here from their home districts, calling
for fuel and the prompt opening of
the branch lines has been "phoned at
once to Division Suierintendent Hurt
of the N". P., at Jamestown, and, when
necessary, to the chief officers at the
company's headquarters.
The Linton-McKenzie line is one of
those longest blocked, its closed con
dition having covered a period of near
ly a month. Within the past two
weeks the writer has received several
telegrams and many letters regarding
the serious shortage of fuel in many
parts of Emmons county, a shortage
which is in some parts rapidly ap
proaching a dangerous condition. All
these messages and letters were at
once turned over to the railway com
missioners and their contents 'phoned
to the various companies that run
through the county.
letters were received from Brad
dock showing that the condition was a
had one. The writer saw Superintend
ent. Derrick almost every evening and
heard his statements as to what the
work of the day had been In the way
of opening the Soo's Diamarck-Hank-
Inson line. This gentleman did his
utmost to o|ten the branch, and every
means at his disposal was used to ac
complish the purpose. In one of the
letters received by me a statement
was given or the fact that a train of
six coal cars going west had passed
through Rraddock on the run, and, in
the absence of knowledge as to the why
and wherefore of the "carrying of coals
to Newcastle"—cars of fuel into a
country near the lignite mines—much
indignation was felt in the country
tributary to Hraddock. The fact Is
that the Soo line into the McLean and
northern nurleigh coal country—to
Wilton and Washburn—was badly
snowed under. A large number of
cars stood at Wilton, loaded with lig
nite. Not a pound of coal could leave
until the road was opened. The com
pany could not open the road without
fuel for its engines, and the cars that
went through Draddock on the fly en
abled the company to at once tackle
the line to Wilton, which was Boon
o|ened and cars of coal came out by
the score. The rushing of the coal to
Bismarck—where there was almost a
fuel famine—without stopping the
train at stations, where It surely
would have been confiscated, was an
absolute necessity, if the line to the
mines was to be opened the six cars
of coal all being used for that purpose.
And the writer will say here that no
man could have done more to relieve
the unfortunate situation than was
done by Mr. Derrick, of the Soo.
On receipt of one of the telegrams
that came from Linton the writer saw
the railroad commissioners and asked
them to try the Milwaukee division
superintendent at Aberdeen that road
then being closed. A telegram sent
by Secretary Hammond in the morn
ing of February r.th brought the fol
lowing reply from Superintendent
Mason: "Extra that will get through
to Linton tonight has two cars for
Hague and two cars of soft coal for
Union—all we have on this division.
If this is insufficient, will send com
pany coal." As the telephone line be
tween Linton and Bismarck has been
out of whack for a couple of weeks,
it is impossible to get quick com
munication, and I do not know wheth
i- the coal reached Linton, as Mr.
Mason said it would.
From day to day, in answer to my
inquiries. It has been Btated by the
x-
l»eople here that, judging by the
last daily re|iorts, the work of opening
the Linton branch would begin Mon
day, February 4 but they have been
putting it off from day to day. The
N. 1*. company has met with frightful
luck during the past fortnight. Had
It not been for such luck the Linton
line would undoubtedly have been
opened Itefore now. At Cashel, not
far from Grand Forks. Wednesday of
last, week, a big Russell snow-plow and
two engines were ao badly wrecked
an to be put out of commission for
ihe winter. A fireman was killed.
few days later another N. P. plow
and two engines were mashed up near
Edgeley, one man being killed. The
plow demolished ai Edgeley was the
one that would have soon been used
on the Linton-McKenzie branch. Add
ed to this is the fact that, about the
time the company had its branches in
the eastern part of the state opened,
another general windstorm farther
east again blocked the main line and
the branches already opened, making
ii necessary to do all the work again.
It will thus be seen that an unfortu
nate combination of unavoidable cir
cumstances had a great deal to do
wiih the failure to do the work.
Now, however, that ihe thawing
weather has come, it will require an
additonal snow-fall to make another
blockade j»ossible. Therefore, as is
likely that the lines that are now
open will stay open awhile, it is prob
able thai Lrinton folks will see a N*. P.
snow-plow some time this week.
THE LEGISLATURE.
Kismarrk. Jan. 12. 1&0T.
To the Record:
The session of the legislature is Just
entering its third stage. Only nine
teen working days remain. So large a
volume of bills has been introduced in
either house that it is a sure thing a
lareer number than usual will be left
over without consideration, even in
committee. Within about ten days of
the close of the session a steering
committee will be appointed, to which
all bills will be referred. The mem
bers of this committee will come from
the dominant faction of the body, and
they will have the practical say-so as
to the legislation of the closing period.
Among the peculiar bills of the
present session is one by young Mr.
Anderson, of rGand Forks, a democrat.
We print this remarkable bill in full,
as follows:
"A Bill for an Act to Prohibit Corrupt
Practices and to Provide for the
Publication of the Names of All Per
sons Contributing Articles for Pub
lication.
"He it Enacted ly the Legislative
Assembly of the State of North Da
kota:
"Section 1. Anything published in a
newspaper, pamphlet or public journal
in favor of or in opposition to any
candidate for any public office, or In
favor of or in opposition to the suc
cess or defeat of any political party,
or any proposition submitted to a vote
of the people, when the same is pub
lished in consideration of the receipt
or promise of money or thing of value,
shall be known as "Political Advertis
ing and any editor, publisher, man
ager or agent of any newspaper,
pamphlet or printed journal, who shall
publish political advertising other
than as advertising matter, shall be
labeled at the beginning or end
thereof with the word 'Advertise
men).' or who shall knowingly or will
ingl.v demand or receive for such pol
itical advertising money or thing of
value in excess of the sum or sums
due for such service at the regular ad
vertising rates of such newspaper,
pamphlet or printed journal or any
person who shall pay or offer to pay
the editor, publisher, manager gr any
agent of any newspaper, pamphlet or
printed journal for such service any
money or thing of value in excess of
the sum or sums due, at regular ad
vertising rates or any person who
shall pay or offer to pay any editor,
publisher, manger or agent of a news
paper, pamphlet or printed Journal
any money or thing of value for the
publication of political advertising, ex
cept as advertising matter, shall be
punished by a fine of not less than
fifty dollars or more than three hun
dred dollars. Provided, however, that
nothing herein contained shall be con
strued as applying to announcements
of candidates for office.
"Sec. 2. Anything published in a
newspaper, pamphlet or printed journal
in favor of or in opposition to any
candidate for any public office, or in
favor of or in opiiosition to the success
or defeat, of any political party, or any
proposition submitted to a vote of the
people, or any public policy, or con
cerning any public servant or any In
dividual, shall have subscribed there
to the name of the person or persons
contributing or writing the same. Pro
vided, that this shall not apply to any
thing published as editorial matter.
'Sec. Any person or persons vio
lating any of the provisions of this
act shall, upon conviction thereof, be
subject to a line of not less than fifty
dollars or more than three hundred
dollars."
Should the bill not be reported for
indefinite postponement, and thus go
to general orders for debate and
amendment, the following additional
sections will be proposed in commit
tee of the whole:
1 hat any country publisher who
prints a marriage notice In which he
as usual refers to the bride as hand
some, shall be compelled to prove it,
and in default thereof shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor. And any publisher
printing a death notice of a member
or ex-member of the legislature, or
any other statesman or politician, as
may be considered from a general
point of view, and who shall, in said
notice, express the belief that said
member or ox-mcmlior. statesman or
pol tlcian has ascended the golden
sta r, shall in said notice give satis
factory reasons, for such belief or
prophecy. Any publisher failing to
comply with tlie provisions or this sec
tion shall, upon conviction be sen
tenced to read twenty-three
Qrand
Forks Herald primary law editorials
twenty-three times without pausing to
partake of meat or drink.
Whereas. There Is at the present
»«a»ute for* the adcqnato pun.
Ubmtnt of country editors who depart
from the truth in describing the
beauty of brides, or in exploiting the
virtues of departed statesmen and in
denoting the place of their present
abode. Therefore, this act shall be in
torce from and after its passage and
approval."
In my last letter I said ihat the op
position of the Grand Forks Herald to
the White primary election bill was
having a strong influence against it.
So much has this been the case that
an almost unanimous indorsement of
the bill by the committee on privileges
and elections has been changed to a
condition of twelve to three against it
That committee, which is in session
twice a day, is now considering the
Sorlev primary bill. This bill is simi
lar to the Sharpe bill in the senate. It
seems almost certain now that the lat
ter bill will pass the senate and the
Sorlev bill the house. If this should
happen, conference committees would
then be appointed in the two houses.
These would meet and try to get to
gether on a bill that would be satis
ractory to a majority or the members
or both houses. The bills not being
tar apart in their provisions, it is be
lieved that no great effort will be re
quired to harmonize the senate and
house on the two bills.
It now looks as though the two-cent
rate bill that passed the house will be
amended to two and a half cents in
the senate or knocked entirely into
smithereens. It is claimed by a good
many members of that body that in a
sparsely settled state like this the low
ering of passenger rates means a cut
ting down or the standard or service,
poorer cars and inrrequent trains.
It will take some steady work rrom
now to the close or the session to con
sider and pass even the leading bills
—bills that the Jamestown convention
platrorm pledged. It Is likely that two
sessions a day will be the program
during the last ten days of the session.
D. R. S.
NOTES.
Former State Senator Wesley Baker
spent a day or so with friends in Bis
marck last week.
Uncle Ren Corbin, who had been in
Bismarck several weeks, went home
last week. Comrade Corbin is in very
poor health, symptoms of partial par
alysis having appeared.
J. I. Roop of Hazelton, employed as
a clerk in the house, received a tele
gram Thursday of last week from his
daughter Mabel, asking him to come
home, as his wife was very sick. He
secured a rig" and started for home
at once.
Senator McCumber's service-pension
bill, which passed the senate and house
and was signed by President Roose
velt, and is therefore a law, provides
as follows: Soldiers of the civil war
who have reached the age or 62 years
shall receive $12 per month 70 years,
$15 75 years, $20 the pension to
commence rrom the date or filing ap
plication.
Tom Kelly arrived from Linton Sun
day, driving here. Tom is not in very
good health and will stay here awhile
for treatment. The Bismarck that Mr.
Kelly is visiting this week is quite a
different place rrom the Bismarck
that was the starting point tor him
self and other Black Hills freighters
about a third of a century in the dim
and distant part.
Recently the writer wrote to Attor
ney Williamson, of Aberdeen, asking
him to visit the office of the collector
of internal revenue for the district
embracing North and South Dakota,
and procure for said writer the figures
showing number of retail liquor deal
ers' licenses issued in the two states
during the year ending June 30, 190C.
He did so. Following are the figures:
In license South Dakota, 1,405 in pro.
hibitlon North Dakota, 1,703. Mr. Will*
iamson says In his letter: "These to
tals are accurate, as shown by the
records of the collector's office. But
in North Dakota there are, according
to the estimate of the field deputies,
probably at least. 100 more that have
not been located. In South Dakota,
under our license law, practically ev
ery one is located. What is meant b
those not located is persons who have
engaged In the business and who have
not yet paid the internal revenue fee.'*
