NOW IS THE TIME
To Come to Dakota and Secure good
& Farms Cheap.

To Come to Dakota and Secure good
Farms Cheap.
Every indication now points to con-
siderable rise in values of real estate, be-
fore long whether in farm lands or city
lots. There have been many of the more
conservative home seekers from the east
ern states who have felt little bit shy of
ceming to live in a territory. Probably
they could not have given any definite
reason for this prejudice, but there is no
doubt that it has existed in the past, and
Il may have deferred some from coming
TO Dakota It has been the fashion with
considerable portion of the eastern
press, which in many respects is shame.
fully ignorant of its own country, to
speak of Il territory, as species OF mo
mans land" similar to some of the scenes
in Rider Haggard's novels, only more SO.
With the advent of statehood much of
this prejudice, none the less powerful
Because unfounded, will pass away. A
foretaste Of this has already been shown
even in the week since the passage OF the
bul, Ky the rise in Dakota securities and
in the increasing flow OF enquiries as to
the price OF lands. Farm lands which
are now offered at 56 and s. per acre
Will not long remain at that figure when
once the eastern farmer finds that he can
exchange his worn out forty acre farm IA
New England for one ten times tie size
in Dakota without losing his }nrthrlght
as citizen of the United States. Even
at the rate of immigration for the
Hast few years, it will not be long before
| the available land will be all taken up,
SO that those who wish to secure free
homes should hesitate mo longer, but
| come before the rush. There is still
some government land in Stutsman coun.
! ty, and there are a number of partly i'm.
! proved farms that can be bought at
| present at very reasonable figures.
/ twenty-five years ago the land on which

HIS Second AtteInpt-The James
town Burglar tries to Break
Jail at Glendive.
Jamestown is the FIRST City
to Order one Of the new
Flags.
His Second Attempt.


Sheriff Schmitz arrived yesterday with
his escaped prisoner from Glendive, who
will in future be kept in one Of the steel
cells and is not likely to mingle again
with the outside world for some time.
When the sheriff arrived at Glendlve he
found that Callaghan had begpn prepar-
ations for making another escape. In
conversation he admitted taking Mr..
Woodbury's horse, and said that when
he had made up his mind to escape, it
did not take him more than fifteen min
utes before he was outside the jail. The
Glendive Independent has the following
about his attempt to break Jail at that
place:
Edward Callaehan, who was arrested
at Jamestown. Oak. for larceny, and who
dug his way out of Jail through the roof,
was arrested last Monday by Sheriff
Gleason and confined IN the county jail.
On Wednesday morning the sheriff took
the prisoners breakfast in the cell and
Then LETT the cage without locking it, in
tending to return in few minutes. The
sheriff went out in the yard for a pail OF
water and was then called into the Deputy
Clerk of the Courts office and given
some papers to serve. When he return
ed the prisoner had made his escape
His tracks we're followed in the snow as
far as Sand Creek where he was captured
by Sheriff Gleason. The prisoner Is
young in years but old in crime. Sheriff
Schmitz of Stuts,nan county. OAK, IS lr
Helena after requisltion to take the
prisoner back to Jamestown.

Babies Badly Named.

New York Sun: The efforts to chris
ten the newcomers with more appropri-
ate and euphonious names do not seem
to be of much avail. Picturesque and
significant titles are not SO scarce as to
make it necessary to use Dakota twice,
and thereby repeat the awkwardness OF
North and South Carolina. Nor is it
altogether desirable that We should have
State of Washington, in view OF the
confusion that it will occasion. But
usage will soon reconcile us TO such
blemishes.
How many babies are badly named. and
yet how dear they soon become to their
brothers and sisters And SO we well
come the new stars, however awkward
their titles, just as we pet the new baby,
though it labor under the name of Adon-
Tram or Galusha or Sarah Jane.

An Enjoyable Evening.

A jolly party went out from jamestown
Monday night to attend the oyster supper
and dance at the Davenport farm. It
could not have been the moonlight, be-
cause there was none, but something
seems to have been wrong with the way
the boys handled the lines last night as
nearly all of the party got upset on the
way. It takes lots of experience to drive
with one hand on a dark night anyway
When the house was reached dancing
was at one commenced and kept up with
vigor to the strains Of Judge Hayes Or
chstra. Supper was served at midnight
and sad to say ono of Jamestowns' blonde
legal luminaries managed to get Gin the
SOUP" and the fluid was not below zero
either. AS the rule was strictly enforced
'no partner, no supper" two Of the
jamestown bachelors were obliged to
borrow a lady from their more fortunate
neighbors, though they have registered
a solemn VOW not to be caught that way
again and they may be expected to apply
for licenses before long. Thirty eight
couples were present, those from James
town being, Mr.. and Mrs. Gaffney, Miss
Alice Purchase, Miss Cora Phillips, Miss
Kate Maroney, w. W. Graves. Frank
Purchase and brother, Chas. Mahoney,
A. Somers, NJ. St. Clair, and M. J. Bar

The Alert received a copy of the
admission bill from Mr.. Springer this
morning, and will print it in full as soon
as it can be setup. Section 3, is prin ted
below, it provides the manner in which
delegates to the constitutional conven-
tions shall be elected, which is intended
to give the minority party share of the
representation, as it is important that
there should be no party bias in making
the constitution.
Sec. 3. That all persons who are quail
fed by the laws of said territories to vote
for representatives to the legislative as
semblies thereof, are hereby authorized
to vote for and choose delegates to form
conventions in said proposed states; and
the qualifications for delegates to such
conventions shall be such as by the laws
of said territories respectively persons
are required to possess to be eligible to
the legislative assemblies thereof; and the
aforesaid delegates to form said conven-
tions shall be apportioned within the
limits of the proposed states lE such dis
tricts as may be established as herein
provided, in proportion to the -popula-
ton in each of said counties and districts,
as near as may be, to be ascertained at
the time of making said apportionments
bv the persons hereinafter authorized to
make the same. from the best information
obtainable, in each of which districts
three delegates shall be elected. but no
elector shall vote for more than two per-
sons for delegates to such conventions:
that said apportionments shall be made
by the governor, the chief justice, and the
secretary OF said territories; and the gov
erpor of said territories shall, by procla-
nation. order an election Of the delegates
aforesaid in each of said proposed states,
to be held on the Tuesday after the
second Monday in May, 1889, which proc
lamation shall be issued on the 10th day
of April. 1899: and such elections shall be
conducted, the returns made, the result
ascertained. and the certificates to
persons elected to such convention issued
IN the same manner as is prescribed by
the laws of the said territories regula-
ting elections thelrin for delegates to
congress: and the number OF votes cast
for delegates in each precinct shall be re-
turned. The number of delegates to
said conventions respectively shall be
seventy five: and all persons resident IN
sald proposed states, who are quaullfled
voters of said territories as herein provld-

newspapers, schools, colleges, asylums,
electric lights, telephones and all other
progressive institutions which mark the
most advanced civilization, constructed
everywhere to meet all wants, and equal
ing the most favored states in the un-
ion.
Because North Dakota is pre-eminent-
ly the land of homes, and they cannot
be more easily obtained Or more perma-
nently secured anywhere.
Now is the time to come, because, at
the rate at which, during tho last five
years, government lands have been alien
ated, there will not be a free farm to be
had in 1898.
Now is the time to como, especially for
those who have means TO buy farms
more or less improved, because, after
three or four years of dullness in real
estate, during which all land values have
reached their lowest ebb, there are al
ready indications that the reaction is be-
ginning, and farm property will never
again be SO cheaply purchased.
Now is the time to come, because an
early admission to the new national life
of statehood will give great impetus to
immigration, eastern capital in large
amounts will seek investments here, i'm
portant new commercial enterprises will
be initiated, and all who hope to secure
the largest share in the results must
be here promptly to participate in them.
Now is the time to come, because OF
the charm inherent in the fact that
every individual according to his powers
| is a factor in the creation of the society
and the state Of the future, and that
here there are no ruts Or grooves or ira
ditions to prescribe or hamper the action
of any one.

The third of the series Of Sunday lee
tures at the Presbyterian church last
night was an account OF the art galleries
at Washington. The chief Of these was
the Corcoran gallery which wollld at once
attract the attention of the visitor by the
magnificent bronze lion and lioness which
guarded the entrance. The collection
had been founded by southern gentle
man named Corcoran, who had lately
donated it to the government. Owing ito
his political bias, there was not at pres
ent single portrait of any union general
except Grant, and his picture was only
there because he was president. It was
truly wonderful, the way in which the
genius of the artist had transferred the
characteristics of the different men to
the inanimate canvas. The benevolence
of Franklin, the dignity Of Washington
and the selfopinated stubbornness of
jackson we're Enthusiastically portrayed.
There, benignantly looking down on the
continually changing crowd below, were
the great southern generals, Lee, Long
street, jackson and many others, but it
caused feeling of pain to northern
man to note the absence of those who
had fought SO gallantly to preserve the
union.
Perhaps the most striking picture in
the gallery was that of Charlotte Corday
waiting for execution. The story was
we'll known how this young country girl
of twenty five, at the height of the Reign
of Terror, had plunged dagger in the
heart of Marat, while he was in his bath.
With wonderful skill the artist had
caught the calm, peaceful, far away look
on the young girls face, a look which,
once seen, would never be forgotten.
Aomong the battle pieces the most
striking was that of Commodore Perry
at the battle of Lake Erie, transferring
his flag from his sinking ship. Several
of the men in the boat were wounded,
but the commodore stood erect amid the
flying bullets with the light of battle
shining in his eye, while at his side, hold.
ing his hand and looking up into his face
was his little son, fearless Of danger SO
long as he held his fathers hand. This
piece was hung in the rotunda of the
capitol. A great work for good was be-
ing done by the growth of love OF art
as love of beauty, would naturally lead
to the love of the good and the true.

no THE RIGHT THING,

AT the Right Time--North Dakota's
Opportunity 70 Get Emigrants, is
Right Now--Let the Work Begin.
There is every ipducement now for the
people of North Dakota to be up and
doing, in the matter of getting settlers
to come into the country. Never in the
past five years has the time so favorable
for this work as right now. Local differ
ences ought to be put aside for this end
andthe people of jamestown andStutsman
county put their shoulders to the wheel.
The west is about filed up with the peo-
ple who always want to 60 a little fur
ther west. There is no other part OF the
United States for those looking for
homes and agricultural lands to 60 to
than the two Dakotas. There are thous-
ands and thousands of people in the
east and in Canada Who would come
west if the proper information was put
before them. Letters of inquiry daily
attest this fact. Now is the time for
North Dakota men to rustic as they have
never done before. Statehood will furn-
ish us an immense amount of free adver-
tising, and people always prefer coming
to state rather than to a territory
North Dakota is closer to the source OF
emigration, which is bonud, in the end,
to settle up her prairies, than any other
western locality now seeking new set
tiers: and North Dakota should by every
right of location and cheap lands, be the
first to receive the strangers. The ac-
complishment of this lies almost entirely
in the efforts of the people here.
For the information of the numerous
eastern readers of The Alert the follow
ing reasons why people desiring to 60 to
a new country should come to North Da'
kota. are given as noted in the Caring
ton News:
Because North Dakota contains the
only large area of hard wheat growing
prairie land now available to the poor
emicrt,nt in the United States.
Because North Dakota offers a home
stead and tree claim (32O acres OF land
free to everyone, and without impossible
or onerous conditions.
Because North Dakota demonstrates
that all stock interests can besuccessful-
" and profitably cultivated, as we'll as
wheat and other grains.
Because North Dakota entails on the
new settler fewer disabilities or calaml'
ties than any other territory or state IN
the union. Grasshoppers and cyclones
are all unknown, and drought has only
been local.
Because North Dakota is without equal
in the union for healthfulness, there be,
ing no diseases whatever, that are pecu'
liar or Indigenous to it.
Because North Dakota's climate is IN.
vigorating and stimulating. the largest
amount of labor being possible with less
fatiguing effort than elsewhere.
Because North Dakota's society Is
moral. educated and refined, and offers
unexceptionable and unsurpassed ad-
vantages in bringing up family.
Because Dakota spends OF its own
money. and without assistance from the
national government or from sales Of
land. Ss2.OO0.O0O per annum for educa'
tional purposes, its schools being free to
all.
Because North Dakota has railroads
legraphs, elevators, markets.: stores
