RAIL BOARD HOME FROM LONG DAE Commission Settles Many Petty Squabbles During Ten Days’ Journey Completing a ten days’ jaunt at San- ish on Thursday, and bidding farewell to its troubles for the nonce after be- ing held up for an hour and a half by a derailment at Wilton, for wrecks are no respectors of persons, State Railway Commissioners Johnson and Bleick have departed for their homes at Tolley and Elgin, respectively, to spend Sunday, while Secretary Cal- derhead is back at his desk in the capitol. The board’s tour opened with a meeting at Sanborn which did not ma- terialize, the differences between Bin- ford and Jessie over the opening of a new telephone exchange, having been adjusted previous to the board's arrival on the scene, while the San- ford board of commerce, because of the war, withdrew its petition ‘for new crossings. At Gardner new crossings were considered, and at Doyon the board considered argu- ments for and against a new load- ing platform. After a hearing at East Fairview on an interstate proposition, the boird went to Williston for Sunday, and the following day visited Drake to consider requests for crossings over the Soo and Great Northern tracks. Better Soo Service At Sanish petitions for better pas- senger service on the Soo line were discussed. The Sanish people ori- ginally asked for a daily passenger train to replace the present mixed train running from Sanish to Max and return. When business is heavy, the mixed train cannot adhere closely t® schedule, and passengers often are delayed. Supt. S. W. Derrick of the Soo line attended the hearing and he prom- ised that the Soo will install a new transfer platform at Drake from which merchandise destined for San- ish line points will be loaded ‘into’ separate cars. There will tien be|, little delay. at stations, as the car|’ loaded for any particular point can|' absent from his voting precinct on registration day should apply as soon | as practicable for a registration card: to the county. clerk of the county where he may be stopping, or if he is in a city of over 30,000 to the city clerk.

The absentce shoul mail this card to the registrar of his home district so it will reach that official by registration day. A self addressed, stamped envelope should de enclosed with the card to insura the retur nto the absentee of the registration certificate. 1. Registration booths will be open from 7 a. m. to 9 p. m. on registra- tion day, June 5, 1917. Census Bureau Figures.
