Alex. Mckenzie at the Head of a Syn
dicate for Development at Cape
Nome.

Editor Winship of the Grand Forks
Herald has just returned from the east
and some of the gossip that he brings
back from Washington and New York,
as presented in correspondence from
Grand Forks will be interesting to
North Dakotans in general and Bis
markers in particular:
While most of his time for several
years past has been spent in the east,
in view of the financial interests which
he has here, and of the influence which
he exercises in state politics, Hon.
Alex Mckenzie is still considered a
North DakOtan, and his movements
are generally of interest to the people
of the state. Mckenzie has been
mixed up in some pretty big financial
transactions, but the one in which he
is now engaged bids fair to eclipse all
the others combined. He has organ
lied a syndicate with a capital of $15,-
100000, which will engage in mining
on a gigantic scale at Cape Nome. Cash
to the amount of 100000 has already
been paid in, and machinery for the
plant has been purchased, and is now
on the way to Seattle, whence it will
be shipped to Cape Nome by the first
boat that leaves this spring. Capt.
NJ. l.. Mccormick, another old North
Dakotan, formerly of Grand Forks.
who has lately been engaged in steam
boating in Washington and British
Columbia, is to accompany the party
and manage the business. The con-
Germ is to be equipped with every de-
tail which can tend to make it sue
cessful. The mining will be done
principally by means of suction
pumps, and these are to be of the
greatest capacity obtainable. Mr.. Nc
Aenzie's long connection and intimate
familiarity with political matters gives
him an immense advantage, as he is
able to arrange readily and accurately
details concerning the organization
and equipment of a large concern and,
the acquisition Of mining privileges
where a less experienced man would
be entirely at fault. Several other
North Dakotans are understood to be
interested in the scheme.
Returned Washington visitors are

cation is working together smoothly

all agreed that the North Dakota dele
cation is working together smoothly
and harmoniously, there being abso-
lutely no frlction over legislative
measures, and little over matters of
patronage. The Grafton p~ostofRce
fight has been the most serious of it's
kind which has yet taken place, and
it seems probable that will be satisfac-
torily compromised by the appoint
ment Of e. H. Pierce, the writer Of
those inimitable "Hits and Mrs" which
have made him famous. Mr.. Pierce
will be acceptable to Hansbrough, Nc
Cumber and Spalding, and it is under
stood that his appointment will do
more to harmonic things in Walsh
county than that OF any other a
Maj. Hamilton is still in Washing
ton. He has not yet received the ap-
pointment he went after, but he has a
satisfactory position which is yielding
him a fair salary, which he can hold
until the next session, when it is under
stood he is to be appointed reading
clerk of the senate.

The firm of Grambs Bros. has been

The residence of George Dalzell in
Fargo was damaged by fire yesterday

damage is about 500, the piano, pic
lures and part of the furniture being

Interest is displayed by military men
in the meeting of militia officers of the
several states 500 to be held at Wash
ington for the purpose of impressing
upon congress the necessity of doing
something to aid materially the re-
Mobilization of the militia in the differ
ent states. Notwithstanding the
great need shown during the war with
Spain for more efficient militia force
in the various states and for better
equipment of it, nothing yet has been
done by congress in that direction.
The secretary of war has dwelt on the
importance of such legislation and
several bills have been introduced at
this session to promote the efficiency
of the militia. The appropriation for
the militia Of the nation made by con-
gress is ridiculously small, being only
100000 a year, which is only 100000
a year more than was appropriated in
1912. Before departing on his trip to
Cuba Secretary Root said on this sub
ject:
1T is greatly to be desired that W
should take advantage of our expert
ence in the recent war and improve the:
organization of the regular army as,
we'll as Of the militia. The country
should not return to the same indiffer-
ence which left us in such a plight in
the spring of 1898. The relations be-
tween the regulars and the volunteers.
should be such as to constitute a
homogeneous body, using the same:
arms, familiar with the same drill, IN
swering to the same ideas Of discipline.
inspired with the same spirit, and
capable of equal and even performance.
The provision of the act under which
the army now serving in the Philip
pines was created partly out of the old
regular force, and partly by new re-
cru1ts in the regular establishment.
and partly by additional volunteer reg
iments, is a long step in advance
toward maintaining the homogeneity
OF which I have spoken. The fact that
officers OF the entire army receive their
commissions from the same source and
look for their promotions and rewards
from the same authority, while in
every regiment regular officers have
Joined with volunteer officers in form
ing, training and commanding the reg
1ments, produce this result to a degree
not previously attained, q permanent
plan ought to be wrought out for the
training of an army Of regulars and
volunteers whenever such an army is
required"
