FEAR FOR IMMIGRANTS.
Blizzard In North Dakota Finds Mum.
bers of Them Unprepared.


Fargo, N. D., March 17.-Fear>is felt
for safety of some of the immigrants
who arrived in the state within the
last two weeks and who have already
proceeded to their claims. Some had
only tents and others small claim
shanties.
None we're bountifully supplied with
either fuel or provisions. Settlers are
reported to be driving over the country
gathering in newcomers till the storm
blows over, and everything possible is
being done to avoid loss of life.
Trains are badly blocked. Trains
bound for the coast on the Northern
Pacific line are held in local yards.
Locomotives are attached and they are
kept well heated with steam The din
ing cars serve meals, and many of the
passengers remain aboard.
The Great Northern has had no coast
train through since Friday and east
bound trains are still reported at Mi
not, while west-bound trains are at
GAINESVILLE. Local trains are run over
both lines from here east.
No effort have been made to send
anything west as rotaries and snow
plows are unable to clear the track
till the wind falls. All cuts on the
Northern Pacific between Valley City
and Bismarck are reported filled to the
level, and from six to eight freight
trains are buried. No effort will be
made to run branch lines for several
days. The storm seems to have reach
ed it's severest point in the West, and
to have lessened in severity as it trav-

1t is an undisputed fact that
the people of a community are
responsible for the prosperity that
exists therein. Ii the people are
progressive and pushing, things
will move. As some one has said:
"Oppress the poor and you will
suffer poverty. Pull down your
neighbor and you will hurt your
self sooner or later. The prosperity
of one is the prosperity of all.
Be helpful. big hearted and broad

sisters of the east. Nevada like
many other states of the west, is
destined to take high rank in this
friendly competition of common
wealths. California has already
won recognition, and her place is
assured. The rest of the great
western country will as surely
triumph, and it is not impossible
that in the future conditions IN
congress will be reversed and the
east will be at the feet of the west,
begging for favors. Such is the
prospect opened up by the irriga-

work is yet to be done. 1t now re-
mains for the west to prove that
with a fair field and no fayors the
east cannot long retain its suprem-
acy.

A man who claims that he is

the murder of Nora Fuller in San
Francisco several months ago, is
in Jail at Sedro Wolley, Wash,
pending an investigation.
The San Francisco authorities
have been notified and have for
warded a description of Bennett to
the city marshal of Sedro Wolley.
Chief of Police Whitman expresses
the belief that the prisoner is an
impostor, seeking notoriety and a
free trip to San Francisco.
The alleged Bennett hints at an
operation being performedon Nora
Fuller by one of San Francisco's
most noted physicians and he
AYERS that he foolishly allowed him
self to be rushed out of the city,
the doctor promised to keep him
amply supplied with funds in re-
turn for his absence and silence.
He will not mention any names
of San Francisco people whom he
alleges had a hand in the young
girls death. He says That when
the proper time arrives he will tell
the story and that it will be tie

TERMS.
The NeWlands
Measure.

The Newlands Irrigation bill
that has become a law creates a
reclamation fund from the sale of
public landsin Arizona, California,
Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana,
Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico,
North Dakota. Oklahoma, Oregon,
South Dakota, Utah, Washington
and Wyoming, less the amount
paid to local land officers and 5
per cent due the State under exist
ing laws for educational purposes,
the reclamation fund to be used
for the construction and main
tenance of irrigation works in the
States and Territories enumerated.
Provision is made for the payment
out of the treasury of any deficien-
cies in the allowances to agricul-
tural colleges owing to this dispo-
sition of public lands. The Secre-
sary of the Interior is authorized
to examine, survey and construct
the irrigation works and report
the cost thereof to Congress at
each session. Section 4 provides
for the letting of contracts for the
works contemplated in sections
when the necessary funds are
available in the reclamation
fund for such section. Section 5
provides that mo right to the use
of water for land in private owner
ship shall be sold for a tract
exceeding 100 acres to any one
land owner, and no such right
shall permanently attach until all
payments therefor are made, and
no such sale shall be made to any
land owner unless he be an actual
bona fide resident on such lands or
occupant thereof, residing in the
neighborhood of said land" Sec
ton 6 authorizes the Secretary to
use tho reclamation fund for the
operation and maintenance of the
irrigation works. Section s re-
quires State control over waters of
non-navigable streams, such as
are used in irrigation.
Nevada has miles and miles of
land now worthless, that science
can make wonderfully productive.
This will mean to Nevada an ever
increasing number of citizens a
tide of emigration from older states
something that has not been
known since the bonanza days.
For years the population of Nevada
has been decreasing, and the people
OF the east have unkindly used the
battleborn state to point oil their
arguments against the constitu-
tional provision that sparsely set
tied states and teeming common
wealths like New York equal
representation in the senate. OF
course the arguments accomplished
nothing, but Nevada naturally has
not enjoyed the reproaches, and
now that she has an opportunity
to forge ahead in the world she
will be quick to take advantage of
it. With even a small fraction of
her land irrigated end under cul-
tivation Nevada may in a short
time pass Delaware, the least popu-
lous of her eastern rivals. That
alone win make the old arguments
useless but Nevada will stop there.
Instead she with her mountains of
metal and her many valleys dotted
with farms will go on and on, over
hauling and passing her naughty

HOWTHE CHINESE GET RAIN
Peculiar Practices In Vogue In the

1t is one of the pecularities of the
Chinese that. while they have develop

has led to any confidence in the uni

nor their rulers have any fixed opinion
as To the causes of rainfall. The plan
in some provinces when the need CT
rain is felt Is To borrow god from
nei@hborinC district and petition him
for the desired rain. Ii his answer is
satisfactory he is returned to his home
with every mark of honor: otherwise
he may be put out in the sun as a hint
TO wake up ana do his duty. \ bunch
of willow is usually thrust into bis
hand. as willow is sensitive to mois-
ture.
Another plan in extensive use is the
building OF special temples in which
are wells containing several iron tab
lets. When there is scarcity of rain.
a messenger starts out with n tablet
marked with the date of the journey
and the name of the district making
the petition. Arriving at another city.

throwing in his own by way of ex-
change. On the return journey he is
supposed to eat only bran and travel
at top speed day and night. Some
times he passes through districts as
greatly in need of rain as his own.
Then the people in these places way
lay him and, ter,- rarily borrowing his

er place.
Prayers are usually made in the fifth
