Eldridge, June Is, 1881.

The recent appointment of Mr..
G. F. Kindred to the extremely i'm
portant and lucrative position of
Assistant Land Commissioner of
the Canada Pacific Railroad is es-
pecially gratifying to his host of
friends and well wishers on the N.
P, because it is a practical and
complete vindication from the
charges made by the recent manage
ment of the N. P. The reputation
for business sagacity and a perfect
knowledge of men which is enjoyed
by Manager Hill and his associates
of the Canada Pacific is so we'll
known, that nothing more than the
present appointment is needed to
fully clear away the doubts that
may have existed in the minds of
those who were personally unac-
qusinted with Mr.. Kindred, and
his successful management of the
N. P. railroad company's land de-
partment. The Alert unites with
the thousands who know him in
congratulations to Mr.. Kindred,
and in the wish that his new field
of labor may prove both pleasant
and remunerative, and that his du-
ties in a foreign country may not
lead him to withdraw his invest
ments and his interest from this re-
gion which he has done so much in
developing.

| Fargo Republican,
During the recent term of court
which has just adjourned the number
of farm machinery cases which came
before it were sufficient to point a
moral to farmers to be exceedingly
careful how they rush into debt for
machinery. After they have done it
they are very apt to lay the blame on
the shoulders OF the agents and dea.
lers instead Of recognizing it as the
result Of their own want of wisdom
and foresight. The machinery agents
and dealers are generally keen bus.
ipess men, and while they are men Of
integrity, as rule, they do not pro.
pose to allow scheming farmers to
take advantage of them. They look
out for their side of the trade and if
the farmer don't look out for his, it
is his own fault.
To equalize the matter tho farmer
should be just as careful in his part
of the transaction as the machinery
men are Of theirs, to the end that
undue advantage may not be taken,
if the manufacturers should notify
their agent to "enforce payment Of
certain notes. etc.
Farm machinery is necessary,
but the farmer in buying, too often
earelessly, overlooks the stipulations
necessary for protecting himself, es.
pecially if it is, as it generally is,
case of notes and mortgages. He evi.
dently does not consider his notes of
much consequence, and is 80 we'll
pleased than he can pay for and Sc
cure machine by giving his notes,
that he allows the papers governing
the sale to cover him with all sorts Of
obligations, without looking TO- see
how he is protected, or whether" his
interests are protected. Possession
seems to be his principal aim, and
the agent has the preliminary ar:
rangements all his own way. When
the mortgage is executed and begins
to draw interest, it never rests, but
with tireless, never-halting steps it is
always on the track of the farmer day
and gniht, and is as sure as death to
overtake him. The race is often
disheartenlng and in favor of the
mortgage, and the farmer finds,
when too late, that his notes are Of
some consequence after all.
The conclusion is that machinery
man is granting you no particular
favor when he sells you a machine
and takes your notes secured by
mortgage, providing you have ''got
anything" and in so purchasing a
machine, the farmer should see to it
that the ''papers" grant him some
relief in case the machine should not
he as represented or fails to answer
the purpose for which he buys it.
Be careful in the start and save trou-
BILE in the end.

NEWSPAPER NOTORIETY.

Perhaps there is no course which
a newspaper can pursue that will so
completely rob it of its dignity
as to be continually putting into
notoriety that class of individuals
whose characters have been branded
by the people of their own COM
munity, as being disreputable, and
void of noble or manly qualifica-
tions. Did the influence Of this
class Of unprincipled journals have
no more effect upon the outside
world than they have upon the peo-
pie of their own community, no
harm would ever come from them.
Their brilliant biographical efforts
through which they seek to trans
form the most corrupt characters
of the town into men of integrity
and ability, would only serve to
sink the unworthy subjects still
lower in the scale of public opinion.

From Our Special Correspondent.
jamestown was ably represented
at the wreck provided by the N. p.
few miles west of here last Sun
day.
Chas. B. Clark disposed of one
thousand bushels of oats through
the fundamentally of his live
agent, r. r. Griffing.
G. T. Hobart, the indomitable
superintendent of the Dakota Divis.
ion of the N. p. r. Il. was here on
Tuesday afternoon, with view to
locating an elevator, which squire
Jones will Immediately proceed to
have built.
The Eldridge lunary object dis.
appeared on the morning of the
23d inst, and has not yet returned.
1t is supposed he is in consultation
with his banker, or concocting
some wildcat scheme to prevent
the destruction Of any more box
cars loaded with King alcohol:
The wheat in this locality is
looking tip top, and it is prophesied
by competent judges that on Mon.

Fences.
Fargo Republican.

Fargo NepuDHCan.
That which first attracts the at
tention of the eastern farmer when
he visits Dakota for the first time,
as he glances over an almost bound.
less prairie, is the almost total alb.
sence of fences, and he asks with
surprise: "How do you keep your
cattle out of your great wheat
telds!" The answer IS we have a
herd law Ill Dakota; cattle are not
allowed to run at large, and west.
ern farmers have discovered that
fences are necessary only to keep
cattle in, not to keep them out.
This item OF fencing is very large
one in all eastern farmers ledger,
and a very considerable portion Of
his time and income must be devoted
to making them and keeping them
in repair. In many of the states
where every plowing turns up a new
crop Of stones that must be re-.
moved, stone walls are fences, and
it is very heavy and costly work to
build them. Post and rail fences,
log fences, Virginia fences, board
fences, brush fences, wire fences,
all sorts of fences are maintained,
for fences are considered absolutely
necessary. But here there are no
stones with which to build insight.
ly walls, no cedar for posts and
rails, as rule no logs to waste by
putting them into useless fences,
boards are high and barbed wire is
injurious to animals, and the farm
er soon finds that it is much more
economical to take care of his own
cattle than to fence his entire farm
to keep out the cattle belonging to
his neighbors. Besides, while in
the east it is possible by constant ex-
penditures to keep their little 7x9
farms tolerably we'll fenced, here,
where one of our small farms would
make a score of such, it becomes i'm
practicable to do so, consequently it
is not done, and Dakota frrmers have
no fences save such as they deem nee.
essary for keeping their cattle from
trespassing on their neighbors'
premises. Thus while our soil is so
deep and fertil as to need no artiti.
cial fertilization, no fences are nee.
essary and our farmers save the
trouble and expense of both.

Theory vs.. Practice.

hultOE Ouaiy AlCEt.
In your issue Of the 9th inst. there
is an article headed "a Few Words
Fittly Spoken, in which Deacon
Jones tells US Of the "charming ap.
pear2nce of our broad acres of wav.
ing grain, etc." All of which reads
first rate and we like to have such
talk go out to the world, and make
those fellows down there where we
all came from, feel bad, and wish
they were up here too, where chinch
bug and rust doth not corrupt, nor
the grasshopper cuss break in and
steal. But then he bursts the whole
thing up, when he goes and tells
them that we have got wild mustard
started in our land, and he pictures
the calamity Of the evil so highly
that am afraid that our legion Of
Land Sharks with all their auency
and glibness will not be able to in.
duce even a green Dutchman to settle
in our comfy. But l have read in
some book some where before came
to Dakota, "First take the beam out
Of thine own eye, and" there I
forget the balance, and can't name
the author.
Now I'll mortgage my tree claim
to raise the funds and wager a new
hat with you, Deacon, that there is
to-day on ten acres in Jones & Ven.
NUNS addition to Jamestown more
wild mustard than on any other sec.
ton of $40 acres in Stutsman county,
and more than that, there can be
found on these same ten acres. a,
greater variety Of obnoxious. weeds
than mother earth in her present
state of virginity could be supposed
to bring forth. Now Deacon let US
not tell others what to do, but let US
go ourselves, and take our hired men,
and our hired girl, and the old wo-
man, and all the children and tell
them there is to be no Fourth Of July
while these things are thus. And l
tell you that with all this force after
the mustard, it won't take faith, big.
ger than one of the seeds to see the
end of the nuisance. And come to
think of il, we might invite neighbor
Klaus to join in with us, just for fear
he would feel sighted, you known.

4 Few Words Fitly Spoken.

Editor Daily Alert: The farmers
OF Stutsman county must look with
pride upon the broad acres of prom
ising crops as they now appear.
1t is truly charming to look at the
rich green fields of waving grain.
The most of it is so pure, clean and
clear from all obnoxious weeds or
mixtures of foul growth which is
to be seen in older counties. This
can be continue so by the careful
selecting of seed and careful cul-
ture: Many forget the Importance
of this, and soon get the land filled
with foul weeds that years of hard
toll will fail to exterminate. At
the present time, while the lands
and improvements are so new, it is
painful to see the evidence of
thoughtlessness or carelessness
about land getting foul from bad
seed or otherwise. To the exper.
fenced eye can be seen in many
fields towering above the grain a
slender stalk with a modest yellow
flower, now in full bloom. That is
wild mustard, one Of the worst pests
with which the farmer has to con.
tend, ranking with the Canada
thistle and as hard to exterminate.
1t will continue to spread, unless
taken out by the roots and burned,
until the land is filled with it, chok.
ing out other crops, and in the end
ruin the farm. No toll nor labor
can eradicate it when once it gets
possession and firmly rooted in the
lands. just think for one moment
Of this point, and when the plant
first makes it's appearance commence
the work of determination and
have it taken out by the roots and
burned to ashes. A day or even an
hour each year may save years of
fruitless toll. Farmers, look your
crops over. Many of you will find,
to your surprise, the plant waving
in full bloom, and now is the time
to annihilate it, and not moment to
lose. 1t is easy in the start to man.
age it but impossible in the end.
Yours,
F. E. JONES.

Last Sabbath we listened to a

afternoon an address was delivered
by Rev. Williams, of Minnesota
who, we understand, is to remain
permanently.
Since Deisem has taken the name
Of the new hotel for his house,
Messrs. Hall & Sox are at loss for
for q name. Your repOrter advised
them to name it the Mcclure house

The. Winslows OF Jamestown
have been spending few days in
town, and they have to give up that
it leaves the Capital city in the
shade.
jeff Smith and wife are expected

welcome from their many friends.
Anderson, our enterprising black.
smith, is erecting a nice farm house
on his claim.
Parties from Jamestown and Far.
go say that the breaking around
the Rapids is the best they have
seen in Dakota. The reason why
we can do it is because we have no
stone, fine soil, and nice coat of
grass for our plows to work in.
Capt. H. T. Elliott has been ap.

which will suit his many friends.
Our large wholesale and retail
firms report business increasing
