TREES GROWING.
WILL N III

Y. Ssa q. Will FINDS TREES
PLANTED ALONG THE NORTH
ERN PACIFIC IN GOOD SHAPE.
Oscar Will in jamestown Alert: The
roots Of the trees we planted along the
Northern Pacific are alive and west Of
Medina are doing as well as could be
expected At least ninety per cent OF
them are alive, and on examination of
those which have had the least moist
IRE I find that they are ali right. AT
the tips the roots are growing and in
some cases the trees are sprouting.
There is no country where trees and
vegetation will get along with as little
moisture as here. The one late snow
fall3that occurred late this spring west
of Medina did a great deal Of good and
the effects of it scan be plainly seen as
you ride west on the train. In an
eastern state, under LIE same condi-
lions all vegetation would have been
absolutely dead, before this, yet here
crops are green and vigorous, only
waiting for a rain to make a good fair
yield in many eases.

Mandan, June 21.-Charles Hughes,
machinist in the Northern Pacific
shops. received a government check
recently for the sum OF $50 to pay him
for clothing and personal effects lost
by the wrecking of the q. s. S.
Charleston, on which he served during
the Spanish war. 1t will be remem-
bered that sne Charleston was wrecked
on an uncharted rock to the northward
q the Island OF luzon last winter. The
vessel was a total loss and the crew
barely escaped with their lives. hughes
was naturally much pleased at having
his personal loss made good and thinks
that Uncle Sam is q good paymaster.

The sugar trust did not get the gift
of $14,0O0,O00 with which the demo-
Gratis tried TO present it under the joint
resolution of Congressman Richardson
of Tennessee. His idea was to wipe
out the tariff on all sugar brought into
the United States from Cuba and
Puerto Rico, the duties on which last
year exceeded $14,OOO,OOO. AS the
whole Of this sugar is bought by the
sugar trust and its allies, there would
have been a nice little sum to divide
among the monopoly's stockholders
had the democratic resolution passed
the house.

Among the many acts passed during
the last session OF congress were the
gold standard law, bills providing for
the government Of Hawaii, Puerto Rico
and Alaska, the free homes bill,
amendments to the pension act, an
antitrust law amendment to the Sher-.
mar act OF 1890. making it as effective
and as far-reaching as the constitution
will permit. These were some of the
things done by the republican repre-
sentatives. They also did much to
call a halt on legislation proposed by
the democrats, which was of a ba6 and
questionable character.

: COURAGED BY THE DRY
WEATHER.
Grand Forks, June 21.--A party of
immigrants passed through the city en-
route south from Bowbells, where they
settled On land earlier in the summer.
They are very much pleased with the
new country despite the fact that the
lack OF rains has made the breaking
up OF the new soil a very difficult task
and. has mad the effect of lessening
greatly the amount of work done this
season. The party above referred to
has driven the entire distance from.
$Bowbells which is situated on the 500
in the northern part Of Ward county,
but 20 miles from the Canadian boun-
Diary. From the fact that they have
driven through the entire northern
part of the state they had an excellent
-r0 s-F 4 So 4a.[ = ---F- |G-a-.#- e -
opportunity to size up the crop situa-
ton along the entire route. They
report that the wheat is very spotted
nearly all the way down, but that the
situation is not nearly so bad as has
been represented by a great many.
There are a few spots along the route
followed, which was through Ward,
McHenry, Pierce, Benson, Ramsey,
Nelson and Grand Forks counties,
where the crops are practically ruined
by the continued dry weather. In.
many places, however. the travellers
report the wheat all right if the usual
June rains fall in the near future. 6
Speaking of the situation at Bow
bells the party reported that the rum
ors to the effect that many of the set
tiers had become discouraged and re-
turned to their former homes, were alb
solutely unfounded, as the only ones
who left belonged to a floating popu-
lation that never remained any place
long enough to take root.
In connection with the whisky
traffic in the new country one member
Of the party stated that there was all
kinds of liquor o~btainable. Two
blind pigs have been running ever
since the new town started and within
the last few weeks another had started
up and that all three were doing a land
Office business, as nearly all the new
settlers had come to the country with
more or less money and the fact that
the a was unfayorable for the
crops did not effect them much as
there were practically no crops sown
this year except in very small patches
by the few who had settled in that dis
trict before the present Quite
a number OF the new settlers are start
ing south at the present time to take
in the harvest and will work their way
back in the fall and spend the winter
on their claims, preparing for the busy
season another year.

WHITES VIEWS.

MAJOR WHITE, BARNES GoUNTY'S
CANDIDATE FOR THE COVER
NoRsHIP, As GUEST IN THE CITY.
Major. Frank White Of Valley City
has been In the city for a day OF two
visiting friends, and left this afternoon
for the east. Major White says con-.
ditions in Barnes county are not pleas
ing to the farmers or business men.
The section has suffered from the gem
eral drouth, and much OF the wheat
will be a total failure. Some OF the
land soWed to wheat is being plowed
up, and the harvest from many pieces
will be light. There will be a fair
flax crop, with rains from now on.
Business men are feeling the effect Of
the crop prospect, but take the situa-
ton philosophically.
Major White was one of the most
popular officers of the Philippine vol.
unteers and takes a keen interest in.
developments in the Philippines. He
says in his opinion the insurrection is
practically over. There is now no
fighting in the regions over which the
North Dakotans fought, the skirmish-
es now being in outlying provinces and
islands, where the natives have been
deluded into the belief that Aguinal-
dos government isin control, and that
the insurgents have been victorious.
The fighting is only occasional and
never fierce.
There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other di-
seases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease, and
prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to Ire with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. II
is taken internally in doses from 1C
