CROP AND LAND VALUES.

O1eOF AND LAND VALUES.
The wheat crop Of 1897 forthe state Of
North Dakota Is estimated at from 40..
OO0,O 600 to 46,o0O.0 .0cO bushels. Taking
42,O:O, 900 bushels as the amount and 90
cents as the price we have $33, GEO. 600.
In 1895 the total value of all farm lands
in the state. as equalized by the stats
board, was t5s, ,sss, ,se5. 1t is very prob
able that the other products raised on
these lands, such as oats, barley, pota-
toes. hay, flax, ETC., If fadded to the price
of the wheat, the total would approxi-
mate the full assessed value of ali Of the
lands Of the state. and greatly exceed the
assessed value Of the particular lands up
on which the crop is raised.
This fact Is quite commonly true even
on the high-priced lands Of the Red Riv-
er Valley and it IS an actual fact that
sometimes more money can be obtained
for the crop than for the farm on which
the crop grew, OF. as occasionally hap
pens, a farm is actually paid for with the
proceeds of one crop.
Of course tliiswilt not always be SO.
The true value Of land, or anything else,is
in'time based on its posefo Of production
or income. Any property that will pro
duce temper centincome Is pretty good
property, and lift will bring SO a year
profit then it ought to be worth at least
tlO0 Given the cost Of production and
the value received for the crop. the diff
ference is the profit and is ten per cent Of
the actual value of the land.
Farmers in the great middle states
raise no more bushels to the acre than
we do in North Dakota; they do not
raise as 'many bushels per man; they
work more months and more hours, they
take much greater pains; they get but
little better prices, and yet their lands are
valued at frome fifteen to one hundred
dollars per acre.
We believe that in the near future not
an acre Of valley land will be for sale for
less than ten. dollars and that the average
value Of land will range from twenty-five
to seventy-6ve dollars per acre, exclusive
of buildings. because of the facility of
cultivation, the fertility of the soil and
the value of the crops produced.

MOVING THE CAPITAL.

Most of the newspapers that comment
on the athck on the Bismarck Settler,
end up by stating that the capital should
be removed from Bismarck, and there
are those who state that il the matter
were put to popular vote, It would be
removed speedily. We don't know how
this may Be, but II the capital should be
1emoved to Fargo, Of some other place,
The imhabltants pfs the successful. candi-
/ date tor capkaf honoss should TT up. q
presentation Of something valuable lof
Mofet He does more for capital re-
moval than any other force ID the state.
-Mandan Pioneer.
Editor Tuttle also repeats the same
charge in speaking Of Editor Kent Of the
Lakota Herald as follows:
''He then urges 'tevery law-abiding
paper in the state'' to take the matter up
and remove the capital. But how will
all that help Moffetl That will merely
demonstrate the truth of what Moffet's
enemies have insisted for years-that
Moffet was daily working more injury to
Bismarck than the best and finest citizen
could work good. The first thing we
know the truthfulness of the position TAX
en- by Moffet's enemies will be substanti-
ated.s'
Evidently Editor Tuttle has forgotten
the fable wherein it is stated that the
lamb was eaten by the volt for muddy
ing the stream so he could not drink,
Notwithstanding the current ran down
ward from the wolf to the lamb.
On the contrary; the newspapers of
this state, and the people Of this state,
know that Mofet has always spoken and
fought for the Enforcement Of law
which the majority of the people of this
state heartily approve. .Andthey further
know, that many Of the men who publicly
placard the walls and advertise them
selves in the newspapers as his enemies.
have been open and fragrant violators Of
that and other laws referring to public
morals.-and the people think they know
mutton from wolf meat.
Bismarck people may as we'll accept
the fact as true, that the sentiment for re-
moval Of the capital is nothing new, and
is only intensified by the outrage at the
Office of the Settler. And further, that
almost the only reason for this vide
spread sentiment is the persistent disre.
gard Of law by the principal citizens and
ofice-holders of Bismarck, aided and
abetted at the polls and in public senti-
ment by a majority Of the voters of Bis
marck.
1t is a fact, as expressed by the mayor
of Bismarck last winter, that no jury in
that county would convict him for selling
liquor. It is probable fact that the
same could be said by any other saloon
man in Bismarck. 1t is also equally true
of Mandan, Dickinson and some other
cities in this state. It is also true that
most of these cities license the saloons
that run wide-open in their midst.
But even in these places, large mi.
nority codemn this lawless work, and az
for the rest of the state, ninety-nine vot-
ers out ofa hundred believe that the law
as long as it IS law, should be obeyed.
The people Of this state cannot vote in
the municipal and county conventions OIL
Bismarck, but they do not feel like locat.

Gardiner March 1S.-(SpeciaI.--At the
benefit given at the Coliseum, last even

probation of the good work the Gardiner
polo team has done and help them along.
The sports were a little late in starting,
but this the crowd took good naturally.
The first event was a exhibition mile
skate by Walton of the Lewiston team.
he making a great show, and doing the
act in three minutes and 20 seconds. Next
came polo game between the Lewiston
and Portland teams. Lewiston being
somewhat handicapped by the loss Of two
of her regular players. put up great
game. Both teams played fast polo and
furnished lots of fun but despite this.
Lewiston won. 5 to l.. After this came
an orange race between six Gardiner
boys which was laughable sport. Oranges
were placed over the floor and the object
was to get the most oranges In basket,
jerry Burgess was the successful one IN
this contest. The most laguhable OF all
was the three legged race between MEM
bers of the teams, Spencer and Tarrant
winning. Gardiner played the winning
team.
After the athletic sports had been COM
pleted, a ball was given at which about
200 couples danced to the strains of
Monaghans orchestra. The benefit was
declared great success and the players
will make about $500 out of the undertake
ing. The most of the players will not
leave for their summer work until next
week and all hope to see them all again
when the season next opens as they have
made countless friends in the city both
as polo players and as gentlemen.

The Bicycle Corps is now a regular
branch of army service in several cOun-
tries, but Norway is probably alone in
having a skating corps attached to her
soldiery. They are armed with rifles and
provided with skates. admirably adapted
for moving rapidly over rough ice or
snow. The men are trained to ascend
patched for trial tests of speed. One of
their latest records is having travelled
1913 miles in 1S1a hours.
The delight of the little South American
boy who was in New York during holiday
week and saw snow for the first time
amused his entertainers and led to the
telling of some funny stories by those
who had Travelled in many countries. One
was of an army officer in India, who. at
great trouble and expense, procured some

gave the order in that fashion, for his
