Never before in the history of
the state has the outlook for this

Never before in the history of
the state has the outlook for this
section been as bright as it is today.
The indications are that in five
years from now the development
of North Dakota on the Missouri
slope and west thereof, will far ex-
ceed the fondest expectations of
those most interested. The great
influx Of a large number of ener-
getic workers who are breaking up
the land and developing the coun-
try, means hundreds of thousands
of dollars added to the actual value
of the country they are invading.
It means hundreds of thousands Of
bushels of wheat and other farm
products; it means occupation of
land that has heretofore laid idle,
whose grass products have for years
been food for the flames of the cas-.
ually set prairie fire. In five years
from now there will be hundreds
of thousands of dollars coming
across the Missouri river yearly
for Ignite briquetts, which will be
made from our inexhaustlble coal
deposits. Millions of acres of land
which have lain idle are being pur-
chased and filed upon by an ener-
getic class of citizens, who propose
to do what others have done-make
the land yield of it's riches. and
make for themselves homes in this
new, growing and healthful state.
The day of purchasing cheap lands
is passing by very rapidly. The
manwho does not purchase now, will
find that when he wants it, someone
else will have stepped in ahead of
him, and there will be none left.
When this stage is reached, it will
be sign of progress-a sign that
the powers of production belonging
to this country, will have been ap-
preciated at their true value.-The
Mandan Pioneer.

An ebony hued gentleman, whose
ocupation seemed to be getting
drunk mostly was arrested by Mar
'sharl T. Wilcox 7 4 I * last Friday and brought
before Justice Bookwalter, charged
with stealing a quantity of meat
from Gust Asklund's wagon on that
day. In addition thereto, the darky
was suspected of having more booze
than he ought and dispensing it IN
some alley to anyone who would
buy. His honor gave him sixty
days in Jail, and then suspended
sentence upon condition that he.
make himself scarce in these parts.
This the coon refused to do, SO he
was remanded to the Jug for the
night with instructions to the mar
shal to take him to Washburn the
next morning. During the night,
he experienced change Of heart,
and announced his, desire next
morning to seek new pastures. He
was therefore held until afternoon,
and when the train came in, put
aboard thereof and started for New
Orleans. and will scratch Wilton

THE VALLEY COUNTIES.


turn of votes cast by counties for
the office of president shows that
North Dakota is going ahead by
leaps and bounds, but the greatest
gains are no longer to be noted in
the Red River Valley counties.
banner Of progress today stands in
the western half of the state, Time
was once when Cass county tower
ed far above her sisters in popula-
tion; now it is worthy of note that
Ward county lying a little further
west than Morton, leads Cass by
some 900 votes and also by some
300 greater majority for Roosevelt
than Cass-it also worth passing
comment that Parker's greatest
vote was in Walsh and Richland
two Of the valley banner counties.
The total vote of the state is about
$1,000, showing a splendid increase
in four years. But let it he born in
mind that 25,5OO of the total 81 900
was cast in the counties west of
Stutsman, about 38 per cent of
which was looked upon by the val
ley only a few years ago as the arid
and unproductive part of the state.
If this was the end it would be
gratifying indeed to those who
have had faith all along in the
"Cow counties as the western
part of the state has been called,
but it is only the beginning Of a
grand future for this part of the
state. It is only few years ago
that Mayor Edwards visited the
state fair at Mandan and wrote of
it as an "Indian or Wild West
Show" Now more would have to
be said of the fair at Mandan or a
fair in any of the western counties
that fairly displayed it's produc-
tions. 1t would excel any of the
valley county shows in variety and
quality of products. Ward county
slips into the lead as the greatest
voter in the state. Other western
counties are as prosperous, and
much of the extreme western part
is but little known to settlers. All
this stands as bright star Of hope
for the future of the''cow counties"
and it IS only to know the condi-
tions of the state from a geograph-
ical and typographical standpoint
to make the prediction that the
day is not far distant when the fig
ures will be reversed and that part
of the state west of the James Riv-
er will have by far the greater pop
ulation. The day has dawned
when the western part of the state
need no longer beg the populous
counties of the Red for our rights,
and our strength is coming faster
than we know. What figure irriga-
tion will cut in the development of
our state is as yet problematica',
but it requires no imagination
whatever to see. that by far the
greater benefit will fall to the west
ern half of the state. &

How many people know the right
Of the road I? The statement is as
we heard it from a man who ought
to know, that even if one tempora-
rily leaves sidewalk in front of a
coming team, that team has to hold
up, as the pedestrian has the right
Of way over the vehicle, no matter
if he is hog in, claiming it or not.
In short, the right of way goes on
the highway with the slower per-
son or vehicle. Thus the carriage
has:the rightof way against an auto.
This is following the rules of the
road at sea, where the row boat has
the right of way as against the
largest steamer afoat. The only
trouble is to enforce your right.
After the man on the right of way
has been run down by an auto, or
the row boat with the right of way
has been sunk by the steamboat,
there isn't much consolation in ap-
pealing to the right of vindication.
That doesn't compensate real
man.-Austin Herald. "

If anyone doubts the future of
of the country, visit to the Iver-
son homestead south Of town will
set them right. This family came
here three years ago from Swift
county, Mimi, and the Old folks
and five sons took claims adjoining
and have "a section and a+hansof
fine land in body. They have
broken up the sod and put large
fields to crop and their efforts have
been repaid by bounteous harvests
this, the drought year, their wheat
yielded 20 bushels per acre, and
graded No. l. hard, On each 16O,
they have a nice comfortable farm
house, and barns and sheds for
their stock. Although their means
were limited when theycame here,
by good management they have kept
out of debt, made improvements
and laid up a little for rainy day,
and arenowon fair road to wealth,
