Three Companies of the Seventh

Gen. Bacon yesterday afternoon re-
ceived a dispatch from Washington
stating that three companies of the
Seventh infantry would be sent to Fort
Smelling instead Of only one. as was at
first planned. The news was satisfac-
tory to Gen. Bacon, who felt that one
company would prove a small force
to garrison Snellipg The dispatch did
not state when the troops would ar
rive here. nor was there any informa-
ton obtained during the day as to the
departure of the Third.
The work of equipping the regiment
for its campaign in the Philippines
progresses as rapidly as the necessary
equipments arrive from the East. They
are being delivered quite rapidly now,
and it will be but a short time before
the regiment will be in shape for the
transports.
Nearly all the men who have been
discharged under the terms of their
enlistment as recruits at the beginning
of the war have received their money.

UndeIiyered Goods.

When an American trader buys a
carload of cattle he expects the deliv-
cry of the live stock before he pays
for them. When an American house
wife purchases a tub of butter she
usually settles with the dairyman when
he sets the tub down in her pantry.
When the United States agreed to pay
Spain $40. 900, 900 for an indefinite num-
Der of islands inhabited by an indefi-
mite number of races, why was it not
stipulated that this conglomeration of
real estate and dirty humanity should
be handed over to this republic in rea-
sonably good order? If Spain isn't able
to deliver the goods, she certainly isn't
entitled to any money for them.
The fact is that Spain sold something
she was in a death struggle to retain;
the United States arranged to pay her
$780, 900 for taking her place in this
struggle. and Is apparently bent on
spending other untold millions in sub
DUNG barbaric people whom it will
take a thousand years to civilize.
And for what? Trade? Yes, for
trade, which will inevitably go to that
immense country just to the south Of
the Philippines, Australia, which is
thousands of miles nearer the islands
than America, and which has what
they want. from fresh beef and NUT
ton to bread, butter and clothing. There
are great prospects for American trade
with the Mongolians on the mainland,
but so little with these hot-blooded ISL
anders living under tropic suns that
it is hardly worth considering when we
must get it under competition with
Australia and at the sacrifice of thou
sands of men in field and hospital and
the expenditure Of millions of money.

lion. Joseph Roach, of Minot. a for

merchants hotel yesterday. Mr.. Roach
is president of the First National
bank, at Minot, and is heavily inter-
ested in the cattle business at that
place.
He said: II regard the outlook from
TINS years trade in cattle as verv ia
vorable. OF course, the best that can
pc expected is that this years business
1 Mdll co., come up to that of last year. as
1913 was a record breaker. Both cattle
ana sheep are very high. The prevail
ing price for mutton and wool IS
hlgher today than it has been for SOME
years, and this fact has greatly slim
ulated the ranchmen to continue in
business. Several years ago ranches
were rather drug on the market
but the last two years has just placed
all the cattle men on their feet, and I
believe the outlook for the Industry
was never brighter.
Quite number Of ranches have been
established in our vicinity during the
last year, by Eastern people, who
have decided to cast their luck among
the cow punchers' and coyotes of the
North Dakota prairie.
stock cattle have been very high
during the last two years. and those
in the business have found it very re-
munerative.
Some successful experiments are be-
ing made in agriculture, which will in
time have a great influence on the
cattle industry.
MANY ranchmen are raising hay and
oats on their land to feed the cattle.
in this way they keep their cattle
within sight and run no chances Of
losing them. Three or four crops of
the Alfalfa hay can be raised in one
year.
There is no doubt that North Dakota
and Montana will in few years fur
nish a large amount of the export
trade in cattle and sheep. just at
present the Montana cattle are sent to
other states and rounded out for the
export market, where the facilities are
more adapted to the process. AS soon
as the range men mix agriculture with
the cattle business, they can breed
the finest sheep and cattle in the
world"

cognizance Of the new prison Irvine bill, to the
extent Of calling public attention to the pro-
posed commission Of 1 cent per pound to be
paid to the fortunate individual who might
be selected as salesman. Prison Irvine sells
itself, whenever it is sold on a par or lower
than the market price. and this commission
would yield s24O per car; which is as much,
OF more, than the retailer, who sells for cash,

view to removing the causes for com

One Of the several complaints is that
the hardwood lumber dealers in On
tario have asked that the rates be
reduced to the same basis as pine
lumber. This would result in giving
the Ontario dealers an advantage over
dealers here in competing for Manito-
ba trade. The American roads will be
