The removal of the war tax
from tobacco is equal to a gift of
nine million dollars annually to
the tobacco trust and as q result
the stock of the American Tobac-
co Co., has jumped up eleven
points. In this manner the great
and good republican party is re-
lleving the people of the oppres-
sive burdens of the war tax. 1t is
a question just how long the peo-
pie will put up with such methods,

In accordance with the recon-
mendation set forth by the Gem
missioner of University and School
lands in his report, the ;oard of
University and School lands has
authorized Com missioner Laxdal
to sell $4,000 acres Of common
school lands, and $4,000 acres of
institution lands, the sale to occur
in May next. Another sale will
be held next tall. At these sales
large tracts in Cavalier county will
be offered, especially in the south
Western townships in the neigh
borhood of the terminus of the
prospective railroad. These lands
in Cavalier county and vicinity
are capable of producing in one
season a crop Of flax which would
at the presentprlce be worth three
times their minimum purchase
price of $40 per acre, and it is not
surprising that there is an active
demand for them, especially as
tho terms are such that the pur-
chase price becomes equivalent to
q low rental. Another feature
which will be appreciated by many
is the opportunity which will be
given of securing a full section or
more of land in block, as is often
desired for diversified farming,
which is fast becoming the most
profitable and popular. Milton
