BEGUN BY ATTORNEY GENERAL
Act Applies to Foreign Corporations
Doing Business In State, and
None Have Compiled.
Attorney General Thompson Med
cult In tho county court of Lancaster
county ngnlnst tho Amcricnn Surety
company for failure .to comply with
tho Junkln nnti-trust law, enacted by
tho legislature of 1905.
Tho flpeclllc complaint Is that tho
company has failed to Mo nn annual
report with tho attorney general aa
provided by law, nnd It has also failed
to Mo an undertaking with tho attor
ney goneral, Baying that It will com
ply with tho provisions of tho Junkln
act und all other laws governing such
companies.
Tho penalty for failure to comply
with tho law Is a line of $5,000 or Im
prisonment for ono year or both.
Tho law npirfles to all foreign cor
porations except common carriers.
Not ono corporation has over Med tho
reports and all nro subject to tho
same prosecution ub that which has
Just been started.
Attorney general Thompson has
contemplated this action for somo
time, but the matter was precipitated
by tho action of tho American Surety
company In seeking nn Injunction
ngalnst the stnto bonding board and
the rates It proposes surety compa
nies may charge.
Fight on State Freight Law.
Tho railroads of Nebraska in their
light on tho Aldrlch freight- rato law
and the 2-cent faro law will stand on
tho valuation of their property ns
llxcd by tho state board of assessment.
This Htatomont wns made bjr"W. D.
McIIugh, ono of tho railroad lawyers,
at a conference between tho attorneys
for tho corporations and tho railway
commission. The lawyers asked for
a delay in tho hearing on tho proposed
classification of freight rates, as tho
hearing on tho 2-cent rato bill nnd tho
Aldrlch bill comes up shortly In tho
federal court.
The railroads will insist that tho
rates in effect prior to 1907, when tho
reductions wero made, wcro then non
compensatory and evidence will bo In
troduced to proVo this statement, said
tho railroad attorneys. Tho jovldenco
Introduced will bo tho valuation of
railroad property by tho state board.
Tho railway commission has not yet
decided whether It will grant tho de
lay to tho railroads.'
County Exhibit at State Fair.
About $4,000 Is offered In premiums
at tho coming Nebraska State fair,
Septombor C to 10, for agricultural
products. Thcso are usually shown
In county collectlvo exhibits and nro
valuablo advertisements for a county.
In many of tho live, progressive coun
ties the commissioners or board of
supervisors makes an appropriation
for nn exhibit representing that coun
ty at tho stato fair, and the result is
that tho county doing this is tho one
which attracts the attention of tho
prospective settler to a much larger
dogreo thnn those which do not be
Hove in advertising. Among tho coun
ties that have already made entries
are:

LARD PlVflC
Wo pitched our llrst camp on Fcbru
a.ry 15, 1909, and from then until wo
struck tho Montreal river on March
1G wo pitched camp 12 times. Wo
started on Fobrunry 14 nnd tho first
night found nn old tent thnt had been
up all winter. Bolng rather tired after
our first day's journoy, we decided to
camp there rather than go to tho
bother of pitching our own tent. Tho
tent was rather small nntf wo wero
somowhnt crowded In our closo quar
ters. In turned blttor cold that night,
nnd wo had difficulty In keeping
warm. Tho next morning, after break
fast, wo packed our toboggans nnd
moved about half a mile farther
south and pitched tho camp.
Wo had no dogs, and ns our load
was rather largo and heavy, wo wero
forced to spilt It and tako part ahead
and enche It and then take tho re
mainder when we broko camp, Tho
trails wero vary bad in places and
then again thoro wero no trails at all
and wo wore forced to cut our own.
This mndo pretty alow traveling, nnd
from February 14 to until March 15
wo traveled about 25 miles, or about
a mllo n day.
During tho winter It Is a very com
mon sight to seo a prospector along
tho trails In Cnnnda. Tho packs vary
In weight from 25 to 100 pounds nnd
the toboggans carry botweon 50 nnd
150 pounds, so, botweon tho two, a
man has a pretty good load. If tho
trails are good, tho pack can bo put
on the sled, but If tho trnll Is at all
unovon tho load Ib very apt to tip over
nnd caiiKo more Inconvenlenco than If
the pack wore carried. Tho packs are
usually carried well up on tho shoul
ders and then supported by a tump
lino, going ovor tho forehead and
sometimes bnlanccd by two shouldor
straps. In this way tho man has free
use of hls-arms.
On May G wo woreat Smoothwntor
lake. Although that lato In tho sea
son, tho river frozo nt night nnd loft
about a quarter of an Inch of Ico. Wo
wero thoro about a week after tho
spring breakup started and nt this
thno tho lco was all out of tho river;
but In tho lakes tho lco had not started
to go. Furthermore, It had not disap
peared until about two weeks lator.
Several times in May wo took our ca
noo on tho river and then had to use
Bnow-shoea In tho woods In order to
get nroun'd.
The rapids In the Montreal river at
Latchford wero not frozen ovor on
February 8, yet tho temperature was
14 degrees bolow zero. Tho rapids
never freezo during tho coldest weath
er. The railroad bridge .crosses tho
river at this point.
There wns a bad fire in Gowganda
on May 2G. Tho fire was started by
sparks from a campdro used for out
sldo cooking. First it took a tent and
all Its contents and thou Jumped to a
log-cabin nnd In hnlf an hour thoro
was nothing loft hut a pllo of charred
logs. A strong north wind was blow
ing away from thS town; had It boon
In tho othor direction thoro would
have been no city to toll tho talo.
A greater Bight which wo saw was
a forest llro on Lako Kuwaknnlkn.
Forest fires aro started, somotlmos by
cnrciessneBs nnu sometimes on mil
poso. This particular firo burned all
around UiIb lako und flnnlly burned
Itself out In a Bwamp. There wore a
numbor of bad llreB on Lako Obus
kong, there being llvo In ono any. A
numucr or men havo lost all tliolr be
longings In these fires. The fiamoB
travel bo quickly thoy aro very dan
gerous,
A favorite way of trnvcl- between
Latchford and Elk lako during tho
Hummer months Is by steamer. Tho
trip Is about forty-five miles and tnkos
nlno hours. Thoro nro mountain
chutes, flat rapids and other rapids
botweon Elk lako and Latchford nnd
aa tho boatB-tlo not run them, thoro
has to be a bont at each portage, to'
mako connections. Tho engines on
tho boats nro all wood burners nnd
run quite slow, so It mnkes tho trlfl"'
rnther tiresome.
It wns In 1070 thnt Charlos II. gavo
to his cousin Prlnco Rupert tho bold
hut none too successful cavalier of tho
civil war tho excluslvo right to trade
with the lndlnns in that great stretch
of country whoso rivers run down, to
Hudson's bay. Tho Hudson's Uny
Company waa formed by Prlnco Ru
pert nnd his associates, who exploited
tho concession, nnd Its history for
nenrly two-nnd-n-hnlf centuries has
been- one of astonishing boldness nnd
success. Furs were .tho company's
main concern In Its early days. Ub
agents, established In factories or
forts, traded with tho Indlnn hunters,
collected tho polts, and dispatched
them by tho Inland waterwaya on the
long and perilous routo to tho const
for transmission to England. Even
to this day tho company's fur trnde
Ib being carried on In like manner,
though In moro northerly regions, for
tho settlement of population In tho
south has driven tho fur-bearing nnl
mnls to tho primaeval Bolltudos beyond
In unbroken sequence for nbout a corr
tury tho company's ileot has sailed
from Edmonton down tho AthnhaBcn
Into nnd on down the Great Macken
zlo river to tho Arctic ocean, return

ten months beforo.
Grandmother's Two Fads.
"My grandmother," said tho man
who wns raised on tho farm, "was n

now, about tho only way that Amorlcan goods
can bo shipped to Argentina Is by way of Europe.
But four American ships' visited Buenos Ayrca
In 1908. Dc8plto this hnndlcnp, tho envoy snyB,
tho residents of his land took nearly $50,000,000
of Amcricnn goods last year. The total annual
trndo Is $000,000,000.
"Tho people of our country would like to trrtdo
with America," says Portela, "but bb It Is, tho
countries of Europo can undersell yoijr on

constitutes the bulk of tho $50,000,000 business

HURLED FROM POWER
With Col. Georges Plcqunrt, alternately
France's military hero nnd tho target for her
opprobrium, fato has played n pretty gamo of
battlcdoro. A buroau clerk with n military rank
nnd tltlo, ho became a national charactor when
the Dreyfus affair waB nt Its height by Biiddenly
espousing tho cnuso of thnt officer nt the mo
ment of his greatest unpopularity. As a conse
quenco, Plcqunrt was hated, cursed, threatened,
ridiculed. But history moves rapidly In Jti hollo
Franco nnd public opinion races between ex
tremes. After Zola and tho courts of last degree,
Droyfua was freed, whitewashed, cheered and
promoted, Upon tho national wave of reaction
his frlonds Uko Plcqunrt rodo to quick popularity.
Eventually It went so far In tho lntter'u caso as
to mnko him minister of wnr In tho cabinet of
the republic practlcnl head, under tho president, of tho military establish
ment of Franco.
Now, with no sin of his own omission or commission to thank, tho wheel
lias turned round again. Col. Plcqunrt Is hurled with equal suddenuoss from
Ills pedestal, no moro to ho courted by generals and Bonntors, no moro to
grncofully rldo across tho uppor ond of tho rovlow fields whllo ennnons ronr,
bauds crash nnd divisions cheer. Bccnuso IiIb premier, head of tho cabinet,
In nn unguarded moment pormltted his tomper to run nwny with his tongue
In the chamber, to bo outpointed with the oratorical foils of llncsso by Ills
nnclont enemy, DelcnBse, tho ministry tumbles- not only Clemonccnu, but
hla fellows, including Col. Georges Plcqunrt, plaything of the Jocular goda
that be In modern Franco.
TO HEAD ENGLAND'S NAVY
Admiral Sir Arthur Mooro, K. C. B K. O. V.
O., C. M. G., who will succeed Sir John Flshor
In October next as tho active head of tho Eng
lish navy, Is n sailor wh'o has risen to his pros
cut position by Bhcer hard-AVork and competence.
He Is not n spectacular person, like Lord ChnrloH
Bcrcsford or his Immediate predecessor, Sir John
FlBhcr, but ho hnB distinguished-himself by nl
wnys doing tho Job thnt wbb glvon him in excel
lent shapo and without any unnecessary fusa
and noise. Patriotic Englishmen hope thnt hla
advont at tho admiralty will mark tho end of
tho potty portionnl nnd polltlcnl Jealousies which
havo done so much harm to tho Borvlco recently.
Admiral Mooro Ib now 02 years old, Ho en
tered tho navy in 18C0, nnd wns specially pro

of 1882, when ho commnnded tho Orion nnd was present nt tho battlo or Tel-el-Koblr.

PROPOSES GREAT CANAL
W. J. Bottcrlll, a London (England) civil en
gineer, Iiiib proposed the building of a sea level
canal 120 feet wide nnd 21 foot deep ncross Eng
land, from Yarmouth, tho naval bnso of tho Brit
ish Isles on tho North sea, to tho Bristol chan
nel, 240 mlleB nway, The proposed canal would
also have n branch to Birmingham, nn important
commercial city, making It a port for sea-going
vessels. This Bectlon, which would connect with
the main canal at Oxford, would bo GO iuIIch
long.
Engineer Bottcrlll declnrcn Jlio main Iden of
tho canal to bo commerce, but, of course, tho
nnval doroiiBO England haa expected to mako
for horself In tho European wnr that nlwayH
threatens conieB up for consideration. With thin
Idea In view Mr. Bottorlll would provldo a forti
fied nnval base at Rockland, a few miles from Yarmouth, whore 40 Dread
noughts could bo docked and there would bo 400 acres of nafo water.
Another udvnntago of tho proposed canal, tho author of tho Idea says,
would be the sailing of vessels from New York right past tho Oxford universities
