Proceedings in the condemnation cases
now in court, to obtain right of way
under the law of eminent domain
for the Bismarck, Washburn & Great
Falls railway, indicate that a great many
property holders still entertain the illu-
sion of boom values for out lots and un-
productive acre property. Many have
refused to aver talk with the com
mittee in charge of the proposition to
obtain a right of way, and either de-
cline to place a value on thei
property or demand such an exhorbitant
figure as to remove all possibility of a
satisfactory compromise compensation.
Thus it happens in many instances that
a better proposition from the committee
has been made the owner for right-of-
way than the jury grants on the evidence
rendered by witnesses. Non-productive
out-lots are really of little value now as
compared with the inflated ideas of boom
days. The valuations placed by the va
rious juries int hese condemnation cases
show it.

The reports from South Africa continue
to be brighter for che British. The re-
lief of Kimberly and the retreat of the
Boer army have completely transformed
the whole aspect of the war. The entire
Cape-Orange border, from the Orange
River to the Vaal, is practically cleared
for Gen. Macdonald has gone around the
west side of Kimberly to clear away any
forces that may be lurking in that quar-
ter. In a short time, at the present rate,
the line will be open from the Cape clear
up to Mafeking and beyond. The fight.
ing is now transferred from British to
to Boer soil. The invasion of the Orange
State and the advance on Bloemfontein
have actually begun. Similar action
toward the Transvaal and Pretoria may
follow, or may be undertaken at the
same time.

while, as, when an editor wrote him to
know what was best to do to advance
the interests of North akota-he re-
piled: In my opinion, among other
things that could be done to advance the
interests of North Dakota, would be
let the people who contemplate making
a change of home, know that we have
millions of acres of the most fertile
lands in the world that can be had at
a moiety. as compared with the worm
out lands of the other states, or hat
a he had free under the Homestead
Act of congressional we have good
schools and churchcs-that we are law
abiding pcoplc-that the crime record
is lower in North Dakota than it is
in any other state in the Union-that
life and property are as safe as it is in
any part of the world-that taxes are
low and investments safe-thar our
railway facilities are equal to the best,
and superior to some of the older states,
and that it costs less to transport grain
to market than it does the farmers of
western Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska
that while the eastern part Of the state
is the paradise for wheat, flax and other
small grains, the western part contains
millions of acres of as fine ranges as
can be found anywhere where stock
obtain food, the whole year, and that
the beeves, when they reach the great
centers, command a premium owe
range stock from other parts of the
Union-that we have an inexhaustible
supply of native coal, sufficient to fur
nish the world for centuries to come,
and that, as soon as developed, will
furnish cheap fuel for all-that, with
less than one sixteenth of our area
under cultivation, we have raised more
than II per cent of the entire wheat
crop of the United States and that
in 1899, North Dakota produced nearly
ono-half of the entire flax crop of the
United States and that-we will con-
tinue to do so for an indefinite length
of time-that flax and fiber mills and
linsecd oil mills are being located at
various points in the state, thus insur.
ing a sure market, not only for the seed,
but for the straw as well, and finally,
and above all things-contine yourself
to the truth as to the wonderful re-
of the state.
