The county board of equalization having gone on record as believing the original Crookston Lumber com- pany assessment wag fair and equit- able was forced to lay the cost of the reduction on Bemidji instead of the entire county. Otherwise the mem- bers would have opened themselves to criticism for changing what they professed to be a just opinion. At first glance, it might seem that it was not exactly just that Bemidji real cstate should be assessed and extra ten per cent in order to make up the deficiency caused by lowering the figures of the lumber.company, but the board members evidently thought that as long as they consid- ered the original assessment just from the view point of the entire county and the Bemidji people who signed the petition did not agree, it was only-right that Bemidji should make good the loss. The board stood pat on its former decision by making Bemidji make up the loss to the county. Turn It Off. Mr. Weatherman, kindly turn off the water at onc To Whom Did He Talk? “I never witnessed such a change of sentiment. The whole of North- ern Minnesota is for Eberhart,” says Andrew 'Horngren, deputy commis- sioner of labor, in the Duluth News- Tribune. The News-Tribune has been an Eberhart paper for some time but it goes pretty far when it prints such interviews. Mr. Horn- gren is certainly not well posted. Farmers Don’t Want It. If Mr. George P. Hampton, secre- tary of the Farmers National com- mittee on postal reform, speaks the opinions of farmers generally, they do not want the Bourne parcels post and they do want the Garden-Goeke- Lewis postal express. Senator La- Follette presented a communication from Mr. Hampton in which he criti- cices the Bourne bill and conclusive- ly shows that its rates will leave to north of Washlfii&pn.y river, Missouri and parts aud Wisconsin, it can be readily seen | that the best part of thg; territory for package carrfage .is left to the ex- press companies by the higher rates of the Bourne bill. 3 Other tables presented in Mr. Hampton’s protest give comparisons of rates for the different zones with the Bourne bill rates, the express rates, ordered by the commerce com- | mission, the “government cost,” the rates feasible under present contracts of express with ‘railroads and the rates feasible under the Gardner- Goeke-Lewis plan. Taking the fifty- mile zone, the one through which the bulk of produce from farmers to con- smmers would move, his table shows that the five-pound Bourne bill'would be seventeen cents; the reduced ex- presg rate twenty-two cents; the gov- ernment cost 6.7 cents; the railway express contracts were fourteen cents and the postal express were eight cents.—Fargo Courler Journal.

The Bourne bill, which, by the way, Postmaster General Hitchcock pronounces a comprehensive and scientifically constructed measure, creates distance zones of 50, 150, 300, 600, 1,000, 1,400 and 1,800 and more miles. It starts with a one-pound unit and ‘a five-cent rate for the first zone, increased one cent for each sncceeding zone. It increased the rate by three cents for each addition- al pound in the first zone, by four cents in the second, by five cents in the third, by six cents in the foyrth, by seven cents in the fifth, by nine cents in the sixth, by- ten cents in the seventh and by twelve cents in the more than 1-100-mile zone. The mathematical, rather the arithmeti- cal progress in these rates is, proba- bly what led the postmaster general to term the scheme “scientific.” Mr. Hampton illustrateg his criti- cism of the rates proposed by a table giving the zones and the proposed rates from one to the eleven pound maximum. In one column he gives the Bourne rates and in a second one tbe average express rates for the same distance. Across the table he draws a line. All the Bourne rates above the line are lower than the ex- press rateg and would be competitive; all below the line are higher than the express rates and would not be competive. Up to seven pounds in the first, to five pounds in the sec- ond, to four pounds in the third and fourth, to three pounds in the fifth, sixth and seventh zones, the rates are competitive. Below those weights the Bourne rates are higher than the exprasg rates. The latter are those established by the recent order of the interstate commerce commission, As the fifty-mile zone includes all territory east of the Mississippi, ¥ * x be : NORTHERN GROCERY : x COMPANY * x x *..-o-o-.---o:: SALE I oA ocERs ¢ X x 2 ool x x x x FRRIAAIRIIIAIRIIIR R RK ALBERT KLEVEN FARMERS LAND CO.
