EVERY North Dakotan should, when
opportunity presents, see the leading
cities Of the State, Fargo and Grand
Forks are places that every North Da.
kotan should be proud of. Although
Fargo leads in population, Grand Forks
has better class of business houses and
there is more life on the streets. The
Grand Forks opcra-house, where the state
convention was held, would be credit to
city ten times the size of the metropolis
of the lower Red. The Grand Forkers,
like the residents of most sections Of
North Dakota, divide on local and State
issues, but in pushing the interests Of
their; beloved CITY they are as one man.
That they are a hospitable community
and willing to make it pleasant fol
strangers every delegate at the convention
knows. Messrs. Bulge, Bray, Ham.
ilton, Cochran, Murphy and their COS
workers are well known and highly re.
garded all over the State. Aud at Grand
Forks the people say that Senator Win
ship has been faithful worker for the
town !; but he's too cranky, and always
wants to boss thin ngs.

Narural Gas.

Natural gas was discovered in pay
ing quantities and Its "boom" bepat,
in 1885. At the end Of three years lis
annual displacement of GOAL was 49,
9O6, 900 tons, estimated in value at
$40, 900, 600, which is believed to be
only about half the rate of the present
displacement. There are now more
than nine thousand miles Of mains-
exclusive OF smaller conveying pipes,
The cheapness Of the gas and the en.
terprise of strongly competing COM
panies have been. the, principal stlmu.
lants In its introduction, These
competitions have resulted In the
rapid requirement and development Of
territory, and In very many cases gas
Is furnished free to consumers. Not
counting the hundreds and thousands
of companies that have organized to
prospect, bore wells, strike water and
quit business. the total capitalization
In the name of natural gas in this
country exceeds $1O0. 600, 900. Recent
as has been the great uses Of natural
gas, 1t has been known for many
years, For example, Fredonia, N. T.,
has been using it for half q century.
Gen. Washington, the father Of our
country, was the first well-known
owner of natural gas stock, he having,
while engaged in a salt we'll enter
prise, purchased the burning springs,
in the Katawha valley Of Virginia.

The writer had read of Uncle John
Van Dusen's volunteer wheat, over in
Aidder county, but couldn't believe it.
However, during a recent trip down. that
way evidence was shown us that the
newspaper accounts We're true. Last year
Mr.. Van Dusen cut his wheat late and a
part shelled out. This spring lie left 300
acres for summer fallow, But the volun.
teer wheat came up thickly. and he left it
as an experiment. About ten bushels per
acre--all No. hard-will be harvested
from the 300 acres.

The Indians believe that If the still.
ness over the waters of a lake be
broken by any careless word the spir-
Its OF the place will be offended. In
the days of the early settlers, we are
told, q white woman had occasion to
to cross Lake Saratoga, and the In.
dians, who were to row her across,
warned her of the dangers that one
rash word might bring; but of course,
being white woman, she was SUPER
ior to all such superstitious notions.
It was calm. cloudless day, and
the canoe sped like an arrow. across
the smooth water. Suddenly, when IN
the middle of the lake, the strong
minded d.woman determined to prove to
these simple folk the folly Of their
belief. So she lifted up her voice In
a wild cry that woke every echo Of the
hills.
The Indians were filed with con,
sternation, They uttered no word,
but straining every nerve, rowed on in
frowning silence. They reached the
shore in safety, and the woman tri-
umphed; but the Mohawk chief looked
upon her in. scopn. The Great Spirit
