RHODES Is DYING.

Cecil Rhodes, the uncrowned king of
South Africa, is dangerously i'll, and
even before these lines are read, may
have paid the debt OF nature.
Such a man as he, of large ambitions
and u to carry them out. must
find it bitter to die, but he will dread
death less now than a few years ago.
Then there was a possibility that his
imperial plans would be realized; now
there is none. They might have been
but for his own rash act in planning
the Jameson raid.
This masterful Englishman has been
a conspicuous character in the world
of finance and in the industrial and
political life of South Africa, and his
history is familiar to most Americans.
He was born in the possessive case
for himself and for his country. For
himself he gained wealth and for Eng
land vast expanses Of African terri
tory north and west of the Transvaal
republic. But for his restless energy
and determination the Beers would
have planted themselves long ago firm.
ly across the Cape TO Cairo" route.
He vas a compelling sort of a man,
who forced on the home authorities
the acquisition of block after block of
the African hinterland.
In spite of the Beers, Mr.. Rhodes
was able to do wonders for the devel-
opInent of South Africa. No more driv-
ing man ever set foot in that country,
He opened mines. He built railroads.
He brought fiourishing towns into ex
istence.
Mr.. Rhodes did much for himself and
he did much for England. He was the
lineal descendant of Give and of Hast.
ings. The end of all his labors vas a
war which will almost irretrievably
ruin South Africa. The toiling and
scheming of this iron-willed, resource
full mar have ended in disaster.
What shall it profit a man to hear
up riches for himself and to extend
greatly the possessions of his country
when he has no children to inherit his
riches and when his last gift to his
country is an interminable war which
is staining African fields with English
blood?

THREE NEW STATES.

The Denver Republican. always a
good friend of the territories, says
that the national house of representa-
tlves will, probably, pass the bill to be
reported by the committee on terri
tories for the admission of New Mex
leo, Arizona and Oklahoma at the
same time. There is danger, however,
that the measure will encounter severe
opposition in the senate and, possibly,
defeat.
1t is a bill which ought to pass. for
against it not a single valid argument
can be advanced. If it is opposed it
will be because of ignorance or cold
blooded indifference to the rights and
the welfare of the people of the far
west. The east may say that it does
not want to see any more new states
admitted in the far west because il
fears the growing influence of this sec,
ton upon national legislation. But this
is carrying selisIiness to an extreme
and such a position would be unworthy
any right-minded American citizen.
The Inhabitants of the three terri.
tories under consideration want state.
hood, they are entitled to it and they
ought to have it. There is no great ma
tional issue in relation to which the
proposed states could take a stand ad-
verse to the interests and views of the
J east. But even III such an issue were
before the country il would not supply
an adequate excuse for resisting the
admission of the new commemorative.
The relation of a state to the national
government is a small part of what in
connection with the establishment of
a state government should be consid
cred. The relation of the state to its
W people and its own government
and laws is by far the more important
matter.
The people of New Mexico, Arizona
and Oklahoma are American citizens
and as such as much entitled to the
right to govern themselves as the citi
e of Massachusetts or Rhode Island
But they are denied this right as long
as they are kept under territorial gov
ernments. A territory is a province oil
the federal government. Its very eX
istence may at any time be destroyed
by act of congress. Whatever author
ity TO make laws a territory may pos
sess is derived from and held at the
will of congress. Congress may nullify
any act of a territorial Legislature.
The people of the three territories in
question have pee in this condition
OF pupilage long enough. Let then
remove to a state and no one would
in that case question their right and
their ability to participate as American
citizens IN the state government. Why
then should they be denied the right
to organize and maintain state govern,

COAL PRODUCED.

In 1880 the Rocky mountain coal
fields produced about 100000 short
tons of coal; in 1890 they produced
about $4,000 00 tons; in 1900 almost
10, 500 900 tons: and their estimated
capacity was over q ,000, 900 tons. In
1900, 2i7 commercial mines in fifty
eight counties of North Dakota, Mon
tana, Idaho. Wyoming, Utah, Colorado
and New Mexico, produced 13,496, 55'
short tons, worth a little over SIT,
400, 900. OF this total coal product 81
per cent vas used for railroad fuel, 2,
per cent for manufacturing fuel, 81 PEE
cent for domestic fuel and 8 per cen
was made into coke.

THE GUARD,

Ii is probable that General Dicks bill
to promote the efficiency of the militia
will be favorably acted upon by con
gress. II it becomes a law it will sup
ercede the old United States militia
law. which has been on the statute
books since 1892, and is entirely obso-
lete in its provisions. For instance, il
demands the enrolment of every able
bodied male citizen between the ages
of IS and As, and declares that he shall
be constantly provided with a good
musket or firelock, of a bore sufficient
for balls the eighteenth part of a
pound, a sufficient bayonet and belt,
two spare flints and a knapsack, a
pouch with a box therein to contain
not less than twenty-four cartridges

GILDED DOMES.

There are only a few gilded domes
in this country. One of the first in the
United States was erected on the state
house at Boston and n of the most
Iotable is that on the new congress
sional library at Washington. Chicago
is soon to have the o unique and
-obably the most beautiful, on the
rev federal postoffice building. In this
case the dome will be of glass with
gold leaf on the inside, thus securing
the effect of a great mirror with a
golden backing. The surface will be
smooth and glistening. the rains will
wash it clean and the gold will be pro.
tected from dirt and weather.

realize the almost utter impossibility
of the acquisition of such a magnif-
cent principally in-for instance-Mr.
Crum's native state, by other than
those in circumstances of %afluence?
At the time he came here the same
amount of land in Illinois would have
been worth at least $40 per acre, re-
qniring a fixed earning of about $4,000
per year for taxes and interest-a bur-
den that would bring dismay to the
stoutest heart and cause the burrows
of care to be drawn over an otherwise
cheerful countenance. Here it has
been acquired by easy stages and with
out a moments feeling of unrest that
is the constant lot of one laboring
under a heavy burden of debt.
What has been accomplished by Mr..
Crum can be accomplished by any
man whose experience has taught him
habits of frugality and the determin-
alton to make an earnest effort.
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1902-02-22

Mr.. G. E. Crum is a resident Of Nc
Kenzie township, his post office being
Mckenzie. His experience in this
country is of interest to all desiring
information regarding this section.
Mr.. Crum is one of the early pioneers
of Burleigh county, having come here
from Illinois and settled in Mckenzie
township in the spring of 1882, locat-
ing on government 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, I'M
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,
Mr.. Crum said: mo more labor is
required to plant and care for 100 acres
of corn here than would be required
for 40 acres in Illinois and while the

tinued for some time, but that it is a
declining industry, and where carried
on east of the Missouri river must be
done under conditions different from
what have prevailed, the principal diff
ference being that we must buy
our grazing land and husband it as
best we can Already no N thinks
of trusting to government or vacant
land for hay or water.
"The meadow lands and watering
places have to be owned. But here
tofore our grazing has been practically
free. Not much longer will that he
the case. AS citizens and well-wish-
ers for the prosperity of our states we
should welcome those changes. The
man who is ranging over many ..hous-
and acres of vacant land with perhaps
only a quarter section Of land as hid
quarters is apt to consider his resi-
dence temporary, and to make his
improvements Of the same nature.
He is not likely to spend labor or
money in testing the capabilities OF
the land, and there is little incentive
to beautify his home with grove or
garden. These western prairies and
plains Of America have been Gods

arid region, to ascertain it's needs and
adaptations. Our greatest need is a
forage plant that will withstand our
hot MINERS and cold winters. Trees
and shrubs, and "all the fairer forms
which cultivation glories in" are also
sorely lacking.
What we have a superiority of is
land and wind, politicians and go
piers. How much has the nomadic
ranchman done to improve these con-
ditions? The stock farmer, owning
perhaps a couple of sections Of prairie
land, will pillow good and sufficient
fre-breaks, which will protect his
grass and hay. When this is done
all over our land the annual prairie
fires will have lost their terror, and
we may look for some ~amelioration of
our climate. The farmer owning his
land and DESTROYS of establishing him
self permanently, will begin by setting
out trees to shade and protect his
home and children. By and by, hav-
ing learned this most beneficial art,
he will plant to shelter from sun and
wind the cattle or sheep which have
made him his livelihood, and for
whose comfort and we'll being he feels
himself responsible--at any rate to
his own conscience"
Mr.. Campbell then proceeds to re-
late the particulars regarding sheep
ranging, taking a flock of 1,SOO as OF
December LIST and relating in detail
the experiences of range life-winter-
ing, herding, warding off the wolf. the
prairie fire, shearing, caring for the
young, disposing of the wool, etc.
Getting back to the subject of sheep
farming again Mr.. Campbell con-
cludes as follows:
Let me describe shortly the class,
of sheep farm of which you have
many attractive examples here in
South Dakota, the kind which is per-
fectly possible in North Dakota now,
and along the lines of which the ex-
pansion of our sheep Industry in these
