City election occurs in the city on
Monday next. The citizens of Bis
marck are familiar with the candidates
and the issues. The candidacy of
Mayor Register is based upon his rec
ord for the past two years. 1t is for
the people to say whether they ap-
prove it Or not. Let there be a fair
ballot and let the people say whether
they favor a business administration
with fairness to all and special privi-
leges to none. the enforcement of the
law. the making of further improve
ments-this is what Mayor Register
stands for. He has opposition, of
course. There are those who differ
with the mayor on matters that have
come up in the past two years, but
they will hardly insist that the city
istration has not stood generally fol
the good of t hecity.

NEVER SUCH FIREWORKS Be
FORE.
P~yroteehnie Program for the Worlds
Fair Dedication Ceremonies the
Greatest Ever.

Work has begun on the vast system
of frameworks for the great fireworks
display on the occasion Of the Worlds
Fair dedication ceremonies at st.
Louis, April 30 next year. Magnificent
as have been former displays of fire.
works at famous jubilees and celebra-
tions in Europe and America. these
programs will far surpass all former
efforts. Some of the set pieces are
nearly half a mile long and II feet
high. Many tons of explosives and
chemical ingredients for producing
the different colors Of fire are neces-
sary in the manufacture of these novel
features, The ballons to be used in
one feature Of the display are so large
as to require three days for their infla-
ton. Expert aeronauts are in charge
of this number on the long program.
One central balloon. much larger than
the rest. will discharge the initial vol
ley from a position 1000 feet from the
ground and will be followed by salutes
from fourteen other balloons ranged
on each side over a stretch of more
than a quarter of a mile. Bombs and
rockets will be set of by thousands
and the sky will be brilliant with new
things in fireworks. The program
provides for two evenings of fireworks.
a grand stand seating 10000 people
now being under construction from
which to view the spectacle.
A~cceptances have been received
from President Roosevelt, former
President Cleveland, the presidents
cabinet, the diplomatic representatives
of foreign countries. governors of
states. and other distinguished men.
The first day, April 30, is dedication
day. May l, is diplomatic day. and
May 2 governors day. The military
parade on April 80 will be composed
of $4,000 to 90 900 troops and the civic
parade on May 2 will be equally large
If not larger.

In a telegram published in another
column is an indication that the work
OF government irrigation will be begun
in North Dakota within the next year
or two. There are several places in
this state where by government aid
water could be stored, and an assured
precipitation would make the land the
most fertile on the globe. This work
is being done under the provisions OF
the Hansbrough irrigation act, and
steps have been taken already for
work along the line of irrigation in
Montana.

IRRIGATION IN NORTH DAKOTA.

Representative Of Geological Survey
viii Look Over Ground in North "a
kota With View to Future Irrisa'
ton.
Washington, April SC. C. Babb OF
the geological survey, who is in charge
of the Milk river irrigation project In
Montana, will leave Washington early
next week for North Dakota, where
he will look over the ground with a
view to future irrigation in that state.
Nothing has been done there as yet
under the provision of the irrigation
act. He will establish several survey
ing parties in North Dakota and then
go to his work In Montana.
Mr.. Babb says the construction on
the Milk river project may begin this
year. though probably O until the
season of 1904. The surveys neces-
sary for this tremendous scheme have
been going on during the last two sea
sons.
It is planned to carry water from
the Rocky mountains. a distance Of
$50 miles, to the land requiring irri-
cation. The greater part of this dis
lance the water will be carried along
natural channels, the st. Mary river,
the north fork of the Milk river, and
Milk river itself.
The waters of the greatest glaciers
OF the continent south of the Arctic
region are drained away from Mon
tana. northward into Canada, to a
large extent through the St. Mary riv-
er. The geological survey has planned
to cut a canal about twenty-seven
miles long from the st. Mary to the
north fork of the Milk river. and thus
carry these waters to the arid lands of
Montana.
Canada makes use of these waters
to irrigate but only for about 10000
acres, and it is presumed that there is
enough water for both Canada and
Montana. The Canadians have the
right to the first supply of water ac-
cording to the law of prior proprietary
rights. VI
No serious objections have been
raised to the American plan by the
Dominion government. however. The
present plan is to irrigate by canals
between 25O. 900 and $780, 900 acres Of
arid land in northern Montana.
