Bismarck Tribune: Geo. F. Macnider,
an old-time Bismarck boy, was down from
Helena yesterday on brief visit. His
friends were glad to see him. George said
he intended to 60 only as far as Glendive.
Mrs. Macnider, nee Matte Weller, is well
and happy. George ]. Douglas of
Fort Yates was yesterday examined for
admission to the bar by Attorneys Hanitch,
Boucher and Philbrick, and upon their
recommendation he was admitted by Judge
Winchester as an attorney to practice in
the courts of North Dakota. Mr.. Douglas
is one of the rising young legal luminaries
in the state. ...... Mrs. Pettee, whose
resignation was accepted by the board of
education, goes to Stevenson to take po-
sition in the Indian school service. This
is an excellent appointment, and superin-
tendent Gerowe is to be congratulated on
securing an able assistant. The board Of
education have decided for the present to
employ no ono in the place of Mrs. Pettee,
bnt to reclassify the school and do with
one less teacher.

By the looks of things John r. Cook has
got IL in for J. e. Britton-and ]. e. Brit
ton hasn't got much use for John r. Cook.
Il will be now in order for. Mr.. Britton to
plead guilty or repudiate the statements
made by Mr.. Cook. Giving all sides
square deal, however, it cannot be denied
there was row at Berthold In which Mr..
Cook figured qnite prominently. The
Mandan and Stanton papers have it from
different sources. Who is to be believed?
Mr.. Britton says that Mr.. Cooks appoint
ment as boss farmer at the agency has not
yet been confirmed by the department, al
though he has been holding that position
for some time.-Bismarck Tribune.
And now comes ]. E. Britton and denies
having ever made to the Tribune or any
body else the statement attributed to him in
the last sentence in the above paragraph.
He says he does not know whether Cooks
appointment has been confirmed or not,
and has had no means of knowing, as the
department has not yet communicated any
thing to him on that subject. Mr.. Britton
is q candidate for county auditor for Nc
Lean, and it looks to US as though our
friend Cook and the Tribune were in q
conspiracy to injure Mr.. Britton's chances
with the people. Mr.. Britton has not yet
been nominated for county auditor, but he
has his eye on the Office and has no time
to take it of to answer these onslaughts
ON his personal character.

The Aberdeen irrigation convention,
which was called in the interest of a scheme
to divert the waters of the Missouri to the
james river valley for the benefit Of South
Dakota, developed into . project to irri-

circulating memorial asking that Gov.
Miller convene special session of the
legislature for the purpose Of enacting q
law authorizing counties to bond for irri-
cation purposess: The artesian system
was favorably considered by the oonven-

construct and operate sufficient number
of wells, charging farmers . reasonable
rental for the uss of water. Grand Forks

B1sMARcK correspondent of the Pho
neer Press: The laws of North Dakota
are of little importance to the people.
Attorney General Goodwin has render.
ed an opinion in which he says certain
sections of the elevator law passed and
supported bv the most eminent men
in the last legislature is unconstitution-
al.
Tho iron-clad prohibition law, which
requires two hours in which to read 1t
and was supposed to be as strong as hu.
man hands could frame it, is relic of
history with no visible power. Orders
were issued over week ago to close all
saloons in the state, and these orders
were issnedsbY the attorney general, yet
there is not . city or town Of 500 inhabi-
tants in the state whore liquor is not
openly sold. Judge Rose Of the Fourth
judicial district, holds that liquor can be
sold in original packages. The game
law has been openly violated and not an
attempt made to bring the offenders to
Justice. All laws yet brought to test
have proven unconstitutio or certain
sections annulled.

The Griggs County Courier is solid to
enthusiasm for Congressman Hansbrough
for the senate. The Courier fatty states
that Senator Pierce has had enough at tho
hands of North Dakota people, and should
give way to some pioneer resident of the
state.-JamestoWn Alert.
Senator Pierce has never received "at
the hands of North Dakota people" one
tenth part as much as either Hansbrough
or the editor Of the Griggs County Courier,
while on the other hand he has saved to
the people Of North Dakota hundreds of
thousands of dollars and induced more
capital into the state than any other one
man in public life in II. The retention of
the capital at Bismarck was wholly through
his management, and that is ono great
cause for the opposition TO him from the
Red river valley, while the opposition from
other sources arises mainly from the dis
appointment of plaoe-seekers for positions
under his control.
The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1890-09-20

There seems to be disposition ON the
part Of certain Red river valley politicians
to exhibit their porcine qualities in at
tempts to prejudice the people against
Senator Pierce and work them into spir-
it Of active opposition to his reelection to
the United States senate in favor of man
from their own section. No official
act of Senator Pierce is satisfactory to
them. If an appropriation of money is
made for the Red river, or donation Of
land or some public institution Is located
in their midst they greedily grasp at II as
if it were theirs by right Of Inheritance
and without word Of thanks, but when
ever the Missouri slope is mentioned as
entitled to some slight recognition at the
hands Of the government, they set up q
hoslso Wild ard frantic that pandemonium
would compare favorably with mum
sociable. We do not make this sweep
ing charge against the people of the Red
river valley. We refer only to certain
class of wiley politicians who would con-
stitute themselves political bosses of the
state if they could. Men who possess
neither merit nor reputation-who have
not single qualification that can be rec
ognized by statesman like Pieroe-are
the ones who are striving hardest to mus
ter sufficient force to defeat Gilbert A.
Pierce for the d. q. senate next vinter-a
man whose reputation before the nation
stands without blemish. It seems hard
ly probable that such result viii be
brought about, but for the safety of the
state il will be we'll for tho friends Of good
government to be ON the alert and pre-
pared. to meet the enemy with solid front.

The new receiver of public moneys in the
Bismarck land Office, Mr.. Asa Fisher, is
one of the best men that could have been
selected for that responsible position. He
has ranked among the most successful
business men in the capital city, where he
has resided many years, and he stands to-
day the peer of the best of them in point
of ability and business tact. He is unas-
suming in his manners, always pleasant
and genial with those whom he meets in
whatever walk of life, and counts among
his admirers as many warm, personal
friends as any other man on the Missouri
slope. He is no politician, yet he wields
an influence more potent than many do,
though with less flourish of trumpets."

DR.. Henry W. Coo of Mandan, who has
been on the Pacific slope, in letter to the
Pioneer, makes the following remarks on
the subject of irrigation:
'If the people of Dakota can devise
methods of irrigation, Dakota can laugh
at them all. One of the reasons for this
trip was to look up this matter to some
extent. I am now satisfied that We can
utilize our own streams west of the Mis-
souri, river to great advantage, make thou
sands and tens of thousands of acres OF
land blossom like the rose. One has but
to look at Montana to see the great posi-.
bilities before Dakota. The Missouri riv.
or is rapid stream, rich in itself for the
soil. The government got our farmers Ia
come In on the ground that II was coun.
try with plenty Of rain. Rain is uncertain
The government should now tap the Mis-.
souri, 100 miles above Mandan and feed
the whole country from large ditch com
ing down the divide west of New Salem,
distributing both east and west from there
In Montana they bring water in these
ditches hundreds of miles. Let us urge
the government to take this in hand, and
In the meantime in small way utilize our
smaller streams. am ready to put in
with few others, say one, two OF three
hundred dollars each, and demonstrate the
practicability of this scheme the coming
season. It will make our lands now worth
from 81 to $40 an acre go up to from $20
to $50 an acre. When We demonstrate
what can be done, there viii be no trouble
to get the eastern millions to undertake
ditching on large scale, should the gov.
ernment fail to take the matter in hand
In conjunction with the above the Fargo
Argus publishes what another party says
"Wllile in the tapping business-why moi
construct a wide ditch from above Wash.
burn in Mclean county southeastward
crossing the Jim river in Stutsman-
through to the junction of the Red in Rich
land! Fill the Jim, the sheyeene and Other
streams, as well as the Red, with Missouri
river water. Then tap the Red and let it,
waters how west through Nelson, McHenry
Foster, Eddy, Sheridan and other counties
out that way. Wide canals filed with
running water would furnish surface TO,
evaporation and lateral bitches would con.
duct small streams, for individual irriga.
tion. The government should take hold
of the matter-survey the land-put thou
sands Of men to digging the canals. The
people of Dakota need the work and the
government can do no less than improve
the facilities for its people,"
It is all very ane to talk about tapping
the Missouri river and running large irri.
cation canals through the dried-up por.
tions or the state, but when four or five Of
these immense ditches are constructed
what are the people along the Missouri
going to do for water? From appearances
now they would have nothing left but the
sandbars. Better wait, gentlemen, and
let the government experiment with the
artesian we'll scheme first.
