THE FATALITIES OF HUNTING
Remains of Henry Clark Brought Down
From Wastburn Killed While Deer
Hunting Other Nearly Fatal Accidents.

The annual slaughter of deer and
deer hunters is in full blast On the
late train from Washburn Saturday
night was brought down the remains
of Henry Clark, farmer living near
Ligerwood, who was shot and killed
last week near Coal Harbor. Clark

Teddy Newman of this city while
hunting at Painted Woods, met with
a narrow escape. He was passing
through the brush and extended ais
arm ahead of him to separate the
brush Immediately some waiting
hunter fired, and the bullet passed
through his arm above the wrist He
was brought to the city where DR..
Smyth attended him. His arm was
quite badly injured the radius being
shattered by the bullet. Had he at
tempted to force his body through the
thicket instead of extending his arm,
he would doubtless have received the
bullet through the body.

Indications at New Salem are that
the town will be greatly improved il
appearance as a result of the exten-
sive fire there last month.
Excavations are nearly completed
and a part of the material on the
ground for a $50 foot front brick
block. This means that one quarter
of one of its principal business blocks
is to be covered with a substantial
fire proof building that will be made
thoroughly modern in all respects.
The building will be constructed
Jointly by Hon. Philip Blank, Otto

Primary Election Law In Minnesota

Primary Election Law IN Minnesota.
Mandan Pioneer: The Minneapolis
Tribune has been asked by CORES
pondent how it likes the primary cleo
tion law which has been in force in
our neighbor state for sometime. and
is is frank enough to say that 1t Is
not the success which some people
claim for 1t. 1t says that 1t does not
think that the state has received any
benefit. whatever, from the new sys-
tenn and believes that the standard OF
quality of the members Of congress
is lower than it was under the old
system. 1t believes that state officers
cannot be nominated effectively by
this system, and it sees no way IN
which under it, a party platform can
be framed. In general the Tribune
does not believe this system adapted
to any but small electorates, which
can be governed on the old town
meeting principle. These opinions are
certainly interesting. and should be OF
value to those who desire to commit
North Dakota to the same new
tangled notion.

MR.. MAXWELL FAVORS PLAN
Chairman Maxwell of the National Irri=
gatatiOn Congress Declares Himself
on the Subject of Irrigation in North
Dakota.

The proceeds of public land sales
would never be adequate. The gov
ernment will prosecute them by the
aid of direct appropriations, charged
up against the irrigation fund. and
repaid by charges upon the land SO
made available. We are scarcely yet
at the beginning of the great irriga-
tion idea and it's accomplishment.
THE first effort of every friend Of
irrigation should be to secure the re-
peal of the existing desert land and
stone acts. The irrigation fund will
not suffer. Its receipts from these
sources are not worth considering.
for fraudulent appropriation of the very
lands that we are seeking to recover
must be taken away. These are the
areas that irrigation will make most
available, and their alienation must
be prevented.
There is another phase Of irrigatic
tnaI is 100 little understood. Men
think of it generally as the reclaming
of actually desert and unproductive
land. But an absolute control of the
water supply will enhance the produc-
tiveness and increase the value Of
other lands. Take North Dakota for
example. All that she contributes to
the fund could be expended most pro-
fitably within her boundaries. n land
can be what is called winter flood
ed" that Is, II 1t can be saturated
with water before it freezes in the fall,
then the moisture is there when the
seed is planted in the spring. and
there can be no fear of drought
With bitches to carry off the excess
and irrigation canals to supply de-
f1ciency, the productiveness and the
: value Of North Dakota lands would
be increased at least fivefold"

sires to have investigations by gov

To an assemblage of business men
at St Paul, Executive Chairman
George H. Maxwell of the National lr-
rigation Association. on his way to
Fargo to consult with II. C. Plumley
regarding irrigation matters in this
state, took a stand with n r..
for the appropriation of funds in this
state. Mr.. Maxwells address will be
of particular interest in this state.
Among other things he said:
by far the greatest contributors to
this fund, derived from the proceeds of
public land sales, are the states Of
North Dakota and Oregon. The big
enterprises contemplated are outside
of the limits of those states, and the
people of North Dakota are in favor
of practice that will permit the funds
accommodating under the irrigation law
to be expended where they are raised.
you may suppose that, as one in
terested in the whole great irrigation
scheme, l would look upon this with
disfavor. On the contrary, it meets
with my hearty approval. The irriga-
tion projects to which the country ia
wisely committed are of enormous
magnitude In the valleys of the Co
lumbia, the Yellowstone, the Snake
the Sacramento and the Colorado there
are tens of millions of acres that may
be reclaimed by projects that will cos,
from $1OOOO.GOO to $5O,0oO,OOO each
An underestimate of the population
which these reclaimed lands will sup
port is 100000 people. And the lane
so prepared for cultivation will be
worth Immediately from 500 to $50t
per acre.
These great works will be carried
through eventually by a larger polio.

were not held, and the village
of Wahpeton was depended upon to
take care of the politics of the county.
On the day the convention was to be
held Burbank headed his crowd and
went to the place of meeting, which
was a little two-story frame building
standing on the site of the house now
occupied by A. Miksche as a residences,
and which served as court house until
about 1881. When the votes were
counted it was found that Burbank's
crowd greatly outnumbered Mr..
Smiths friends. The convention at
Fargo promptly nominated Judson La
Moure for the council and Burbank
for the house An Independent ticket
was put up later at Jamestown, with
A. McHench of Fargo, d. NJ. Kelleher
Of jamestown and Mr. Smith of Wah-
pcton as nominees. When the vote
was canvassed the Independent ticket
was found to have received large
r.ajority Of votes, the little village OF
Jamestown alone casting 450 votes.
O. course this was known to be fraud
ulent, as there were not 450 people
living at jamestown, let alone that
number of legal voters residing there.
1t being an election at which dele
gate to congress was voted for it was
a. once decided to contest the cleo
ton, and put the expense Of the con-
test on the government. A certified
copy of the names Of the voters was
taken. and it was found that three
fourths of them were names of men
unknown in the vicinity Of James,
town. Later it was found that two
passenger trains stopped at James
town on election day for dinner, and
that Kelleher and his friends had run
in all the passengers and train men
to vote, and they voted the independ-
ent ticket. Contests were entered
when the legislature met at Yankton
Barbour Nov 81 nbaa as

seated on the 29th day of the session
The seating Of Mr.. Burbank gave Mr.
Rich the opportunity so long waited
for At the close Of the session II
was found that Mr.. Burbank hat
secured the passage Of bill locating
the permanent county seat Of Rich

Yet thicker far those blooms Of bless

That cheer and comfort oft unseen,

The blossoms of our Fathers loving

blessed him most
Life's simple joys, or sacrifice OF cost,
And. heard by the great Giver's ear

His soul sings poems for the twelve

For home it's comforts, friendly con

For out broad prairies with theil

And all the blessings we togethel

Her son mentioned that he had seen Chamberlain IS Pain Balm advertised for sprains and sore ness, and she asked him to buy her bottle of it, which he did. It quickly relieved her and en- abled her to sleep which she had not done for several days. The son was so much pleased with the relief it gave his mother that he has since recommended it to many others. For sale by Green For- est Drug Go.
