that it employs as conductor such a

The line is IA miles in length, with five
stations, two at Anderson, two in Pen
dleton and one at ingalls,. We are in
formed that additional subscribers
could be served to advantage, but that
the terms of the contract with the
present parties prohibit it. The un-
questioned success of this novel tele-
phone line is stated to be due largely
to the perfect insulation. The builder
Invariably uses the top strand of the
fence wire, which is treated to gen.
erous coating of rubber paint. At
the fence sections common galvanized
wire is used to continue the circuit to
a connection with the next fence, the

the railroad crossings. In order to
carry across the road or highway, the
circuit isleither placed beneath an in

is extremely low, as there is no eX-
pense for copper wires, and poles are
only needed at the crossings. Where the
number of patrons is not too large, the
service is said to be all that could
be desired. Our correspondent states
that he has used the fence line to con-
verse with a friend some eight miles
distant, and this at time when the
1ence-posts were still saturated with
the morning dew, condition under
which the line is supposed to work to
the least satisfaction.
The line has been such a practical
success that the farmers of the neigh

The New York Post comments thus
on the immigration into North Da-
kota: The movement of immigration
to North Dakota and Minnesota has
not been equa1led in the last ten years.
Fully 10000 have settled
in North Dakota since the first OF
March, and the movement is yet in full
swing. Many of the immigrants are
farmers and their families from Ohio,
Illinois and Michigan. Many of these
farmers had sold their land "back
east at from $$3355 to $50 per acre, and
were on their way to various localities
in North Dakota. where they will begin
anew on farms which cost from So to
$12 per acre. With the money re-
ceived from the sale of a 100-acre farm
in one of the old states, some of these
men will be able to buy 800 acres Of
the best unbroken wheat land in North
Dakota, to put up a set of comfortable
farm buildings, and to do their first
years ploW1ng and seeding. An IN
cident Of this movement to the north
west is the subdivision and sale of the
so-called bonanza" farms. The huge
farms of from $4,000 to 10000 acres,
with n or two exceptions, remain in
tact, but hundreds of others of suf6-
Gent area to entitle them to be classed
among the bonanza" farms, have been.
cut up into tracts Of from 800 to $40
acres. With the reduction in the
price Of wheat and the decreased fer
tility OF the land, profits on the .bo-
nanzas farms have shrunk seriously

SOME PRAIRIE E

THE SOUL OF THE DREAMER.
Only the soul of the dreamer,
Linked with the heart of a child,
Nothing of riches but sweetness
Sweetness that spoke when it smiled,
Naught of success that is worldly,
Nothing of riches it had,
Only the soul of a dreamer
That threaded the mists and was
glad.
Only the soul Of q dreamer,
That rose from the. earth to the sky,
Roamed with the clouds and the sun
beams,
Sang where the swift swallows fly
Lands it had not, nor the castles,
Haughtily reared, stone by stone,
Only the soul of a dreamer
That priced all the earth as it's own
Only the soul of a dreamer,
Lifted up out Of the mire,
Up from the deeps, dense and dismal
Into the nobler and higher, y
MARRIED not by greed or contention,
No struggling beast DER a bone,
Seeking but sweetness and silence,
Peace-and its dreamings alone.
Only the soul of the dreamer,
Dreaming of peace and content, i.
Love that engulfs every weakness,
Earth and it's bitterness blent,
Blent with the sweetness Of Heaven,
Only the f~ar-feeting eyes
Far-feeting eyes of the dreamer
See from the earth-Paradise.
Only the soul of the dreamer,
Up from the din and the dust,
| Out of the shock of the battle,
Up from the levels of lust,
Only the soul of a dreamer,
Naught of earth's riches it had,
But it sped with the song and the sun
shine,
Into the skies-and was glad.
