Frank w. Youngman, a we'll
known travelling man, and Miss
Ida v. Lidquist were married at
Minot last week, Rev. O. j. Bagne
Of Crazy, officiating.
It is claimed that about twenty
per cent Of the homestead claims
made in the Minot land district
during the past two years are now
being contested. This is signif-
cant. 1t shows that the specula-
tive period is over and the demand
for land by actual homeseekers is
great. The time of loose methods
and "town'' farming is past. One
must now live on his land if he
wants 100 acres free or make way
for a settler that will. - Crary

ladies in the state of North Dakota

several important principles which
prospective brides will do we'll to
treasure in their minds. 1t will
have a tendency towards making
the girls prove up, and onthe 9TH

Let's Have the Road.

Inter Ocean, Devils Lake.
AS the spring elections draw
near, what do the farmers think
of having a direct road from
Churchs Ferry to Devils Lake on
the north side of the railroad
track? Are you going to take up
the question next Tuesday? If
not, why not? Don't you think
it would be better to have a good,
short road, than to drive Z of a
mile south and then dodge some
slough, come back to the railroad
track and compelled to drive south
again ! mile? The county com
missioners will furnish all lumber
for culberts, also in addition $500
if a direct road can be had. Now
if the county commissioners see
the necessity of the road, surely
the farmer as we'll as business
men living Of said road ought to.
Lake township has put up a good
example. Grand Harbor has a
grader which is up to date, and
Dry Lake and Coulie township
certainly are able to grade a road
which would be a credit to this
county, instead of an excuse which
they call a road to Devils Lake.
Ramsey county is known as one
OF the most progressive counties
in the state. Let us see how we
live up to our name. Surely no
one will dispute the fact that a
good road is a credit as well as
a comfort to an up to date com.
munity. I have no doubt that
the Inter-O Ocean will give space in
it's columns for the furtherance
OF this object. Lets hear from
You, gentlemen. A.. S.
