SYKEsToN, N. D., Aug. 9.-Harvest-
ing in this section will soon be we'll un-
der way. Some early grain is already
fit for the harvester, and a few farmers
have commenced work. Most of the
grain is very short. and great many
headers will be used in consequence. A
careful estimate places the yield in this
county at about one-third of an average
crop. Sykeston is getting to be quite a
sporting center, and it would seem that
some of the county officers were COM
peting for athletic honors. The clerk
of the court and judge of probate under
took to settle a difficulty without due
process of law, and the clerk came out
with a judgment attached to one of his
optics. The judge of probate is also a
member of the school board, and late in
the day he sought to achieve further
honors by endeavoring to knock out an
ex-member of the board, but this time
the judges judgment was bad, and as a
result he now wears y-disfgured
phis. Sullivan and Jackson best keep
themselves in training, preparatory for

Republican PRIMARIES.

HAMILTON, N. D., Aug. "a meet
ing of the committee of the county of
Pembina was held at Pembina on Sat
urday last, j. G. Webb, Esq, in the
chair. There was good attendance,
amongst whom were F. D. Harrison,
John E. Thicker and Robert Muir,
from Hamilton; Dick TTenholme, from
Bathgate. After some private business
was put through, a deputation of farm
erS from the Farmers County alliance
was heard, consisting of Peter Nc
MILAN. Esq, and John Mcdonald, Esq.
1t would appear from their statement
that some of the Republicans who are
alliance men attended the Republican
primeries, but were not allowed to take
a part therein unless they would join
the Republican club. To this they OBJ
jected; and now they approached the
Democrats in good faith, desiring to
take part in the caucus that was about
to be held. They were assured by the
chairman that they would be welcomed
with pleasure, and that they should at
tend the primaries as Democrats and
take part therein, as the object of the
Democrats was to secure good measures
for the benefit of the whole people. The
convention was fixed to take place in
Hamilton on the oath. The deputation

JAMESTOWN, n. D., Aug. 9.-Prof.
Warren Upham, member of the United
States geological survey corps, who has
beeh on duty in Dakota for the past four
years, was in this city to-day. He gave
your correspondent some cheerful in
formation which will be of interest to
the public. Prof. Upham, in the prog
ress of his duties of Investigating the
shore lines, the ancient lake that COW
cred the Red river valley, has included
a searching examination of the shore
lines of DEVILS lake and Stump lake,
the latter the second largest body of
water in North Dakota, lying not far
from the former. This examination
has been continued through four sea-
sons. and capaCious notes made Of the
condition of these fresh and alkali lakes
each year. On comparing the notes
Tuesday for the first time. for the use
of the senate subcommittee on arid
lands, Mr.. Upham was particularly
struck with the indications the records
of the lakes gave of periodical seasons
of
WET AND DRY WEATHER.
He states positively that farmers and
all others can pluck up their courage, as
the end of the dry period is at hand, and
the next change will soon bring the uni
formly wet seasons the "old-timers"
talk about and a few of the tenderfeet
know something of. From careful sci
entific and geological observations. Mr..
Upham is confident that this period of
change from maximum to minimum
moisture, and from the least moisture
to the most again, occurs over an aver
age range of ten or twelve years. The
dry seasons began here in 1888, and the
the extent of them has, according to this
authority, now been reached. The lake
shores examined show regular fiuctua-
time required to accomplish these
agrees perfectly with the memories of
old trappers, Indians and old timers
who have been questioned on the sub
ject. AS soon as the laws of nature
have been indelibly written in the peri
Ddic rise and fall of these lakes so sure
Is the
WET PERIOD NOW
about to begin. The growth of timber,
and certain other marks known to the
trained eye Of the scientific expert de-
clare this, and Prof. Upham reiterated
the statement that season of good
crops and sufficient moisture was rap
idly approaching. This agrees with
the known record of SpiritwOod lake,
in this county. The Gray brothers,
who have lived Oh the lake seven years,
state that the water is now at the low
level it was when they first went there.
r. E. Wallace, another old resident,
sixteen years ago shows that the point
of land now barely covered by the east
tongue of the lake was then dry ground.
The periods covered by the rise and
fall of this lake agree to an accurate
degree with the opinion expressed by
Prof. Upham. who stakes his profess
sional reputation on its correctness.

paper, two different jobs, two changes Of

wrapping samples of his soap in to be dis
trlbuted around town, with local dealers

$4,000 He said our contract must be

He said his men would be here by the 9th

soap, and insisted that we should have the
work ready for delivery by that time He
went out and sold two Of our druggists
each a bill of goods, delivered the goods

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

A SYSTEM Of public schools would
be of more benefit to Marietta than
anythlng we know Of. The towns
that have public schools are pros
pering and growing, People are
moving to Atlanta because they can
get free education there. They would
move to Marietta if we could give
the same educational advant ages.
Marietta has lost several families
owing to the lack of tree schools.
Atlanta has gained them. We
know of a widow lady who has sold
her little home here and will move
to Atlanta to educate her children.
Marietta has two frst-class schools.
male and female, hut there are 3
number of families not able to paw
tuition. Ought these children to
grow up in ignorance We think
not. This is an age of education,
and our town must keep pace with
it. You can hold out no better i'll
ducement to man of family than
to tell him that he will be at no ex-
pense TO educate his children if he
will locate in our town. Of course
it will cost something, but we've got
to spend money to push our town
forward. All towns do that mako
any progress. We must 90 forward
or backward We cannot stand
still. Stagnation is death There
is no prettier or healthier town any
where than Marietta. 1t has in
comparable natural advantages that
make it desirable Llace to live,
and those who visit the place fall in
love with it. Let us supplement
these advantages by inaugurating
a splendid system of public schools.
1t has become a necessity. Towns
and cities surrounding US have them
and are attracting population there
by. There is Atlanta, Carrollton,
Douglasville, Cedartown, Carriers
vile, Dalton apd Rome, all have
public schools. Austell is prepar-
ing to have them. Can Marietta af-
ford to lag behind? We think not.
Objections must be laid aside and
dispassionately and calmly we must
meet this important question as be-
comes intelligent and progressive
citizens, Sel6shness and prejudice
must be relegateo to the rear, and
the sooner we act the better.
