PRESIDENT KRUGER SAILS

London, Oct. 20.-Germany and
England have formed an alliance to
maintain the integrity of China terri
torially and keep the ports open. The
terms of this agreement, which were
arrived at on October 18th, between
Lord Salisbury and Count Won HAITI
field, the German ambassador to Eng
land, are officially given out as fol-
lows: The German government and
her British Majestys government, be-
ing desirous to maintain their inter
ests in China and their rights under
existing treaties, agreed to observe
the following principles regarding the
mutual policy in China: Firstly it
is matter of joint, permanent inter-
national interest that the ports on the
rivers and literal of China should re-
main free and open to trade and every
other legitimate form of economic &C.
tivity for the people of all countries
without distinction, and the two gov
ernments agree on their part to up
hold the same for all Chinese territory
as far as they can exercise their in
fiuence. Secondly, both governments
agree that they will not on their part
make use of the present complication
to obtain for themselves any territor-
lal advantage in Chinese dominions
and will direct their policy toward
maintaining the undiminished terri
torial condition of the Chinese empire.
Thirdly. in case another power max.
ing use of the complications in China,
In order to obtain under any form
whatever, such territorial advantages,
the two contracting parties reserve
to themselves the right to come to pre-
liminary understanding regarding the
eventual step to be taken for the pro-
lection of their own interests in China.
Fourthly, The two governments will
communicate this agreement to other
PCV u . AhIOA ColCO, OOpOCldllf AuoLIldt
Hungary. France, Italy, Japan, Russia
and the United States and invite them
to accept the principles recorded in
it."
Washington, Oct. 2O.-The state de-
partment has not yet been advised
officially of the terms of the alliance
reported from London to have been
reached between Germany and Eng
land to maintain the Territorial in
tegrity of China and keep the ports
open. While the move gives general
satisfaction here the officials say it
probably is misnomer to call lt an al.
lance. What probably has happened,
they say, has been a re-affirmation of
the principles already agreed upon,
not only between England and Ger
many, but between all the great pow
ers interested in China.

GENERAL WILLIAMS GIVES HIS
IMPRESSIONS OF THE RECENT
CONGRESS.
we who attended the recent irriga-
tion congress at Chicago could not fail
to be impressed with the deep interest
chat is taken in the question all
through the country" said Surveyor
General E. A. Williams, who was a
delegate to that congress from this
state. 1T was a gathering of scien-
tific men who have made a life study
OF the subject and their lectures and
observations were of great interest to
us of the west. We have no distinct
lively arid lands in the state OF North
Dakota but we have much land that
would be vastly productive if we had
an assured supply of water. Further
west and south, where there are arid
belts, the matter Of irrigation is vital
and the government is just beginning
to appreciate the possibilities of this
work. l think the next congress will
insert the opening wedge with an ap-
preparation for the building of reser-
voirs, the storage of water and the de-
velopment of irrigation theories along
scientific lines. At the meeting of the
congress at Chicago we had addresses
from many OF the government experts,
both along the lines Of irrigation and
forestry. A few years ago the gov
eminent first established a forestry
bureau and now it has, l think, 100 or
more forestry experts, who travel
through the country, looking up the
forest area of the country, interesting
people of treeless states to plant trees,
and those of wooded states to preserve
the timber they have. At the rate
the immense forests Of the country are
being depopulated it behooves the gov
eminent to take some action toward
conserving the supply. The idea of
the department is to clear the under
brush, preserve the young trees and
saplings and give every opportunity
for nature to replace the trees cut
down. The irrigation congress is a
business organization which has done
and is doing much to call the atten-
ton of the government to the wisdom
of an appropriation for irrigation and
l hope it will be secured from the next
congress. The whole matter is of
vital interest to the west"

HIGH PRICES FOR PRODUCE,

HIGH PRICES FOR PRODUCE.
Grand Forks Herald: The farmers
from all directions are bringing more
produce to the city than for some time
past and what IS more they are getting
very satisfactory prices for everything
they have to sell. During the past
few days a large number of hogs have
been brought in, both live and dressed.
Live hogs r bringing about Az cents
and dressed from 6 to Z cents. Hay
finds ready sale at from $40 to SIS per
ton according to quality and there is
quite a lot of it being hauled to the
city every day. Michael O'Connor
brought one hog in from Thompson
yesterday which weighed $50 pounds
and which netted the neat sum of
$40. 80, and he states that if he had
enough Of the kind he would not care
whether or not he raised any wheat or
anything else. The high price, or at
least fair price for all sorts of produce
is a pretty good thing just at this time
and the farmers will realize a neat
sum for anything they may have to
turn off for holiday money.

ANOTHER EFFORT BEING MADE

ANOTHER EFFORT BEING MADE
FOR A PARDON FOR THE LIFE
PRISONER.
Nine years ago Joe Remington brut-
ally murdered Elevator Agent Flett of
Arthur and robbed him of a large sum
of money. On the trial he was SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment. Now
an effort is being made to have him
pardoned, and a petition to that effect
will be presented to the new admins
tration. 1t is likely there will BE-
strong opposition to such action, as
the recollection of the crime is too
vivid in the minds of many people.
bennington had see Flett with the
money and hid in the hay loft and
committed the crime when the agent
went to feed the horses. The murder
excited such intense feeling at the
time that there was talk of lynching.
Since he has been in the penitentiary
Remington has been chief barber and
has also learned tailoring. He has
been a model prisoner in every respect,
and is warmly commended by the war
den and other officials.
