Is Opposition Courted?

The St. Paul Dispatch says there are a
number of North Dakota old timers cir
culating around St. Paul, and adds:
''These gentlemen generally state their
visit is merely a matter of business, but
it is noticeable that they do considerable
planning for their campaigns in that
state None of them will affirm that
Alex. McKenzie's influence will not be
against re-electing Senator Pierce. but
none of them will make a denial of it.
One of their number says that some
little fault is found with Senator Pierce,
but that it is a mistake to state that the
old lottery men and the great railroads
of their state are against him and will
try and defeat him in his attempts to
secure reelection.
The gentlemen referred to Pierce's late
interview in this city. IN which he said
that the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific would oppose him. This state
ment, he said, was incorrect. He said
that it was generally understood among
the politicians that these roads and the
lottery men were in favor OF giving
Pierce another term at the national cap
ital, and Why he should make such a
statement was a mystery, unless ne
wished it to so forth throughout the
state that be was receiving the opposi-
Of monopolies.'
Alex. Mckenzie says ne is out of poll
tics and will shortly return to attend to
his business in New York.

the LOCAL REPERT0RY.
A Nebraska Man InventS a
Water Elevator to Irrigatc
Land.
The Baled Hay Industry Asslm'
ing Proportions i'll Western
North Dakota.
Water Elevators.

4 Nebraska firm has water elevator
to irrigate land, water being raised to
the necessary height from supply ponds,
creeks, rivers or artesian wells. Two
horsepower will elevate, it is claimed,
$50 barrels Of water an hour from 10 to
100 feet The machine is to be on ex-
hibition at the Nebraska state fair, Sept.
5. The irrigation of smaller fields by
artesian we'll supply is certainly feasible.
OK course a smaller amount OF land must
be cultivated, but the yield in proper
ton will be equal to the small average
Of large tracts. One irrigation story
shows how the soil will respond, # given
water enough, at all stages OF tho crop.
A farmer Of an adjoining county plant
ed a small area OF his garden to wheat
ard carefully irrigated it. The result
showed that yield would give at least
ninety bushels to the acre of the best
grade of wheat.

Not His Fault.

The impression seems to prevail IN
some quarters Of the country that the
Lutz elevator license bill is the one
which has caused the trouble with the
elevators and was responsible for their
early announcement not to receive gram
for storage. This is mistake. II will
be remembered that at the time of the
introduction Of the bill it was warmly
championed by The Alert. It was a
plain, business like revenue measure with
only one provision. The Alert maintain
ed at the time that the license was reas-
onable; at the elevator conference Attor-
ney General Goodwin stated that the IL
cense was not excessive and the fact that
the elevators have decided to pay it
would seem to indicate that they them
selves did not consider it unreasonable.
The trouble has been caused by the other
bills-the Cole and Bowen bills. The
provision ti1lng maximum prices for
handling grain and that compelling the
issuance Of grade certificates were con-
sidered an unreasonable 1nterfei-
ence with trade and it was
against these provisions that the ele-
vators made vigorous protest. In the
compromise the railroad commissioners
decided to release the elevators from
compliance with these provisions. There
never was any kick about the Lutz H.
cense. The county license, provided for
in another bill, was objected to, however,
and will not be paid. Mr.. Lutz's is the
only bill by which the state will get any
revenue as taxation from the elevator
and warehouse corporations.

a New Industry.

Dickinson Press: If the farmers of
Stark county cannot utilize all the
prairie grasses, which are everywhere
plenteous, they can bale it and supply
tho western markets at fair prices. Any
country is most prosperous which has the
most varied products or artificial
for export, and the bal1ng of our hay is
not confined with q few. 1t is some
thing that the farmers Of small means can
all get at and earn few dollars Of ready
money. The first shipments Of hay,
amounting to anything, were made
from this country last year. This
year r, j. Turner will ship 800 tons OF
pressed hay west, to Fort keogh,
Miles City and other points. Allalong
the line from Beltield down to the east
end OF the county, farmers are. stacking
hay in quantities of 20 to 40 tons Or more
in place and the press is taken over the
country in turn, the hay ba}ed and de-
l1vered at some station. The demand is
steadily increasing for baled hay in the
markets west and the prospect is that
the surplus hay of this section has a
fixed market. The farmers who are sue
cessful in getting good crop can ship
their grain. the cattlenlen their stock,
and those who have neither can ship hay.
