taken this action without some under

occupied nearly five years, to the entire

LITTLE BROWN MEN.

Japanese and Italian laborers are
taking the place of white laborers on
the road work of the various north
western railroads. The N. P. is send
ing large numbers of Italians west to
work on it's Montana grades where
great improvements will be made this
summer, and the Great Northern is
employing principally Japs on this
kind of work. These men are en-
ployed not because the roads have a
preference for them but because white
laborers cannot be depended on. Last
year thousands of white laborers were
sent west free and not over ten per
cent of them went to work. The Japs
especially have great endurance and
are faithful and willing workers. They
are not fitted for heavy work, but in
%surfacing and working on grades they
are good men for the roads.

A special train arrived over the
James Valley branch last week. The
train consisted of nineteen box cars
and two coaches, the latter being oc-
cupied by Russians from Trip, Rich
ardson county, South Dakota. They
will locate at New Salem, Morton
county.
Thursdayni ght something like 1900
Dunkard settlers passed through Fargo
on three special trains over the Great
Northern. The Dunkards and their
families will locate on railroad land in
the vicinity of Devils Lake. In the
first train there were 81 cars.
A coach load of immigrants and fif-
teen cars of immigrant moveables went
up the branch Thursday morning des-
tined for McHenry. There was also
a carload of checked baggage besides
that in the regular. baggage Gear.
A train of seventeen box cars con-
tanning horses, mules, machinery, prop
erty and all kinds of farming and
household effects arrived from the
south Friday. There were about 100
persons in the tourist sleepers attached
to the train. The colony was from
Missouri, about the central part, where
land is worth from $50 to $50 an acre.
Many of the new arrivals were vet
without land and expect to locate after
reaching their destination, which was
Darlington. They will scatter through
the counties of Foster, Wells and
Stutsman.

MISSOURI BROKEN.
Ice in the River Breaks Last Night
and is Moving Out Quietly
Today.
(From Tuesday's Daily.)

(From Tuesdays Daily.)
The ice in lie Missouri river broke
at a little after Z o'clock last night and
began moving out. The noise Of the
moving ice as it started down the
stream was plalnly audible from the
western part of the city. The ice is
moving along quietly today.
1t is not expected there will be much
trouble in the breakup this year. The
snow fall has not been heavy and the
stage of water to flow into the river is
not great.
The Northern Pacific have taken due
precautions. Last year after the spring
flood the track on the bottom at the
west of the river was raised several
feet and is now entirely riprapped with
stone, to fortify it against the water,
should it overflow the bottoms. Unless
there should be an unusual gorge, the
N. P. will not experience the same
difficulty west of the river that has
been the case in former years.
Superintendent Wilson came in on
the noon train to take stock of con-
ditions and be prepared for any emerg-
ency that may arise.

Property.

purchase and removal of the Sheridan
house structure. Bids will be received
by Superintendent " llson of the N. P.
until April 10. The bids will be for
the greatest amount that will be given
for the building, the purchaser to
have until June Is to remove the
building. Officials of the road were in
the city a few days ago and took an
inventory of the Sheridan house prop
erty, in order that they might form an
estimate of its value.
The removal of the property is de-
sired by the road at IS early a date as
possible in order that the work of
building the new depot may be begun
and the building be completed before
the eason closes.

joints with the sands of the earth; it
has been used for a waste basket, a
cuspidor and a coal scuttle; it has
worked nights and Sundays until this
week when it went on a strike; it
dropped stitches, lost time, it's valves
stuck and At refused to feed. We took
it to Charley Andrews, the jeweler.
He lever saw the inside of a tpye-
writer before in his life, but he went
at it like a man who had done nothing
else for a lifetime but make typewrit-
ers. He Strengthened the main shaft,
built a new diaphragm, shortened the
stroke, frightened up the screws,
scraped off the mud, and inside of an
hour returned it a new machine. Now
it runs like a young boy going to a
circus, and writes as fast as two men
can think. We would have taken
four dollars for it when we turned it
over to him for repairs, but today we
would not trade that old Caligraph for
any new typewriter on the market.
