DRAINAGE.
A meeting of the business men Of Grand
Forks was held for the purpose of urg-
ing congress to take action upon the
question of the drainage of the Red Riv-
er Valley.
A series of resolutions were adopted.
These call attention to the necessity of
congress taking action and providing
means by which the disastrous floods
Of past years might be averted.
A general movement is being made
throughout the valley. by the residents
Of every town in this direction. Early
action is being urged by those having
the matter in hand, as the rivers and
harbor bill, under which the measure
will be considered. will come up for ac-
ton soon.

There was CONSERVATION in First M.
e. church circles at Fargo while the
other day. Some days ago the new pipe
organ arrived from Chicago. but was
left on the Milwaukee side tracks till
the arrival of the experts to set 1t up.
Alongside the organ car was another
loaded with Bishop Edsall's household
furniture, to be removed to Minneapolis.
In some manner the out train took the
car containing the organ instead of the
bishops furniture. and there was a lively
interchange of kilograms till the train
pulling 1t was found half way to Minne-
apolis and the car ordered rushed back
on the next train.
