He argued merging of railroads was the policy of congress and was the inevitable trend in modern in- dustry. Though an attempt had been made in 1903 to consolidate the same railroad group and had been suc- cessfully checked by the federal gov- ernment, Mr. Lyon added, the public sentiment toward railroad competi- tion had changed completely. He declared that the northwest was “de- pendent on low railroad rates.” Reduced Fare Granted to Football Battles Bismarck people may journey to see University of Minnesota and North Dakota Agricultural college football games this fall on reduced Dads’ Day.
