A Tribune representative enjoyed
the pleasure Of a. social hour with Nh.
c. e. Crrm of Mckenzie township on
Saturday evening, during which the
latter consented to relate something OF
his personal experience during a resi-
dence of twenty years in Burleigh
county. ,7 s5"
AS intimated above MI. Clum is one
of the early pioneers of Burleigh
county, having come here from Illinois
and settled in Mckenzie township in
the spring of 1882, locating On govern
ment land about two miles north of
where Mckenzie station now is.
For many years Mr.. Crum confined
his farming operations almost entirely
to the raising of small grain; but dur
ing the past decade he has been grad
ually working into stock growing, un-
til last year his only grain crop was
100 acres of corn. From this he har-
vested $500 bushels of good sound
corn. When asked concerning the
profits of corn culture on Missouri
slope land as compared with Illinois,
MI. Crum said: mo more labor is
required to plant and are for 100 acres
of corn here than would be required
for 40 acres in Illinois, and which the
average yield there is somewhat greater
than here, the cost of the land to grow
it on is not one-tenth as great. My
experience convinees nj that corn can
be produced here at much less cost per
bushel than in any of the so-called
corn states further east" AS MI.
Crum's early training in the school of
agriculture was had on an Illinois
farm, and as his experience in each
state has covered a long term of years,
he is certainly competent to pass upon
this question of. relative profits. =
From a modest beginning Mr.. Crum
has gradually expanded until he now

of Burleigh county. As heretofore
stated his home farm is situated about
two miles north Of Mckenzie station

MR.. HILLS STATEMENT

The signed statement of James J.

railroad merger, is published on an
either page. 1t will be read with in

who will from this time on study the
railroad question in all it's bearings

fore, It is very evidentsthat the trans

tion, combination and aggregation of
capital to establish and promote great
enterprises. AS with merchantile bus
mess, manufacturing and mining the
owners Of railway properties are seek
ing the security and stability that cen
sf%ralization of capital insures. It is a
question if the ~so-called merger of the
Great Northern, the Northern Pacific
and the Burlington lines must not be
considered in a wider range than mere
consideration of same ownership"
If it be true, as Mr.. Hill tells us, that
the control of these northwestern prop
critics was about to pass into the hands
of the owners of systems centering at
Chicago and st. Louis then it is best
for us to stop and consider, before con-
6emning MI. Hill too severely, whether

3neIny or a friend of the northwest
IN the broad principle involved the
people of North Dakota may be opposed
to combinations and trusts of all kinds
but if we must have trusts-if we must
have gigantic monopolies Of railroad.
properties-then we will most certainly
favor northwestern supremacy and
ownership by northwestern men. MI.
Hill has been too great a factor in the
development of the northwest to be
considered an enemy. Nor can 1t be
said of him that he is aotlated by mo-
tives of either personal greed or pure
philanthropy. He is simply human.
One thing seems assured. The merger
of the Great Northern, Northern Pa
cifc and Burlington roads is an accom-
plished fact. They are owned by the
same people. There is no law to pre-
vent it. 1t will be we'll to adjust our
selves, if adjustment is necessary, to
the new conditions. The people have
surrendered O n of their rights to reg
ulate rates and fix valuations for the
purpose of taxation. Ownership does
not curtail legislative power to regulate
railroads. The people want equitable
and just rates, fair assessment of rail-
road property and good accommoda-
tions. If these requirements are not
observed the people will find speedy
remedy. There is no cause for alarm
on this score.
