nish wheat enough to make the mil! pay
and they could not be induced to greater
industry, so the good. old man had to
give up the mill. The result was that the
breeds returned to the coffee mill or ate
the grain raw or roasted. That mill was
the first. Geo. Emerling and John
Mayer built the next, and that mill is
now one of the paying concerns of Penn
bina county at Walhalla, having all the
new improvements in merchant mills.
Prior to 1873 there had been few
shipments of wheat, which had been
picked up along the river by the boats.
Frank c. Myrick, who was in the COM
mission business from 1854, made the
largest shipment on one of the boats
ever made from Pembina. 1t amounted
to 500 bushels of wheat, which he COL
lected from the back country on the
Pembina and Tongue rivers. From
Grand Forks to Pembina settlers came
dropping in by families one at time,
and all came with the idea that wheat
was the only staple to be cultivated in
the Red River valley, all of which they
learned from the remarkable crops raised
near the Selkirk settlement with primitive
tools for cultivation, yielding from 20 to
50 bushels per acre.

Joy VS.. SORROW"

Mark Hunt, the erudite and versatile
editor of the Fessenden Free Press. has
taken unto himself wife in the person
of Miss Rosebud Brinton, pretty and
popular Wells county school teacher.
The marriage took place on Wednesday,
Jan. "A, the residence of the brides
mother in Fessenden. The Herald
wishes for Mr.. and Mrs. Hunt many years
of happiness.-Grand Forks Herald.
Really we are in quapdaly. In was
on the tip OF our pencil to wish Brother
Hunt and his bride all possible Joy. But
if it is true as Brother Hunt said few
weeks ago, 1T is source of much Won
der why happiness and Joy takes the
form of idiocy. Sorrow brings the intel
lect to life and grief stings the brain to
action, etc" we hardly know whether to
wish him joy or sorrow. But, as we
take it. it is fact not theory we are
now discussing, and from that fact we
perceive that Brother Hunt has dropped
his Don Quixotic lugubrious and pessi.
mestic ideas of life (and we half believe
from the coincidence of dates that the
PIONEER EXPRESS has somewhat assist.
ed in the happy result) and that he is
now indulging in the most extreme
optimistic dreams of a whole houseful oi
joyful probabilities. We hope so.

THE MOVEMENT GROWS.

The presentation in the house ofrepre.
sentatives the other day of the committee
report in favor of constitutional amend
ment permitting the popular election ol
senators in states which choose to adop,
that method marks an epoch in the his
tory of the movement. The committee
in its report cites instances which have
occurred through the entire history OF
the republic in which the present system
has been directly responsible for corrup-
ton in state legislatures, and shows that
it has, in many cases resulted in the fail
ure of states to secure proper representa-
ton in the senate.
Twenty-four states have petltioned con-
gress for the popular election of senators,
North Dakota among them. This is
within six of the number required to
make constitutional amendment effect
i've, and there can be no doubt that when
voluntary petitions have come from such
large number of states, without any or
ganized movement or any prospect OF
immediate results, much larger number
would signify their approval were the
matter submitted to them in a formal
way.-Grand Forks Herald.

aoEBEL SHOT.

In Kentucky the result of the election
for governor had not been decided until
Wednesday. On the face of the returns
Taylor, the republican candidate, was
elected by about 1900 majority. This
was as passed by the county boards and
by the state board, most of the members
being democrats. The legislature then
took hand. A test vote on Tuesday
showed enough democrats favorable to
Goebel, the democratic candidate, to
seat him as governor. Meantime large
numbers of partizans from both sides
filled the city. On Tuesday while going
to the capitol with two friends Goebel
was shot by an unknown person from a
third story window Of building near by.
The bullet passed through Goebel under
the two shoulder blades, infiicting prob
ably fatal wound. The assassin is not
known, though man, who is probably
innocent, was arrested.
The act is at once disgrace to civili-
zation, to the whole country, and more
than all to Kentucky.

THE HISTORY OF WHEAT.

A large audience attended the opening
session of the second days meeting o1
the Grain Growers and after music by
the orchestra Capt. George N. Lamphere
of Moorhead, was called as the frs,
speaker, presenting an able address on
''The History of Wheat Raising in the
Red River Valley" Mr.. Lamphere
spoke in part as follows:
The beginning of wheat raising in the
Red River valley was in the Selkirk set
tlement north of the boundary line, near
Fort Garry, now Winnipeg.
In 1911 the Earl of Selkirk purchased
from the Hudson's Bay Company vast
tract of land in Manitoba, including the
land afterwards occupied by the Selkirk
settlement. The purchase was subject to
the Indian claim to its title. About the
time of this purchase there was compul-
sorry exodus of the inhabitants of the
county Of Sutherland, Scotland, from the
estates of the Duchess of fSutherland; and
Lord Selkirk took large number OF
these evicted persons under his protec-
ton and forwarded them to settle on the
land he had purchased on the Red River.
They arrived on the Bay in the fall of the
year, and spent the winter at Churchill,
on the western shore of the Bay. In the
following spring they advanced inland,
crossed Lake Winnipeg, and ascended
the Red River of the North.
In 1917 Lord Selkirk came over and
visited the settlement. Besides having a
desire to see how the settlers were pros
pering. he desired to negotiate for the
extinguistment of the Indian title to the
land he had purchased. After much
difficulty he negotiated treaty with the
Chippewas and Crecs, which treaty was
signed.July Is. 1917. The consideration
was the annual payment of 200 pounds OF
tobacco, halt to the Chippewas and half
to the Crees. The conditions in the ter
ritory at the time were so wretched that
the Canadian government interfered and
appointed commissioner to make in
vestigation, who recommended an amic-
able settlement and a ayunion Of interests
by the companies, which had been re-
duced to the verge Of bankruptcy. It
was long time, however. before action
was taken. Lord Selkirk died in 1921,
and the Right Hon. Edward Ellice sue
ceeded to his rights. He was one of the
principal stockhpld ders of the Northwest
company. and tie Canadian government
consulted with Inn and under its aus
pices he instituted gotia,ions, which.
.sfter many difficulties, resulted in a har-
n,onious union Htween Hudson's Bay
Company, the elatts having before COM
binsd with the Y. company. The
. zrssasnt went intd effect 10 1921, and
