HOW WE GROW,

Thirty years ago there was
neither a farmer nor mile of rail-
road within the borders of North
Dakota. Today it has population
of not far from 100000, with q
railroad mileage of more than
5000 miles. The assessed valua-
ton of its real estate in 1901 was
24,609,S69. Since 1900 it's farm
lands are rsputed to have doubled
in market value. The farm pro.
duce raised in North Dakota last
year, including live stock, easily
aggregated more than 5000 per
capita for the entire population of
the state. Ths increase in farm
land values last year was probably
twice that amount. The state has
according TO the assessment re-
cords Of 1901, farms to the num-
Der of S,Sos; combined farms and
ranches, 20,120; ranches, $3.50. 1t
is believed that fully 100000 set
tiers are coming into North Dako-
ia this summer, and that by the
end of 1902 the population Of the
state will aggregate half million.
Population determines the value
of lands. This population is dss-
tined to be permanent, for the
lands of this state are better un-
derstood now than they were if
teen years ago The impossible
will not be attempted as it was in
many instances then. North Da-
kota is rapidly coming to be a
state Of diversified farming which
means uavarying and substantial
farm prosperity.

what magnificent good thing for

there are no trusts, but are bring

RathboAe, convicted of criminal
connection with grave postal ir.
Irregularities in Cubs, is not grant
ed a new trial. If the concession
be made to the Senator's friend
and political henchman, the threat

There are several suggestions in
this ominous situation. Rathbone
was once charged with crooked
work in the manipulation of the
Ohio legislature, on an occasion
when it chose Hanna to the senate.
The inference is that a .dsbt of
gratitude Was thus placed upon the
senator, and he is man who not
only pays his debts, but stands by
his friends through sunshine and
storm. These are admirable quail
ties in the man, but they become
Objectionable if they seek to pro-
tect a friend who is a law breaker,
Or to pay q debtst the expense of
