Big Crowd at Open House 70 Sec Pas
tOraI Play.
The serio-comic play at the opera
house Monday night, presenting
Joshua Spruceby, was another round
of life and love, always interesting, as
II was to the crowded house of Good
land people. The play is old, but the
laundering innocence and purity OF
country life IS intensely interesting be
cause it comes right from the bosom OF
nature.
Uncle Josh, unsoPhisticated but with
a great heart, and proprietor Of a coun-
try place, rears beautiful orphan
girl. A Mr.. Fay of New York city,
puTpOrting to be a respectable sutton,
but at heart a criminal and a practiced
green-gOOds man, makes love to Nancy,
who, when her fathers consent can not
be gained, fOolishly e1oPes with Fay
Of course she soon comes to grief, and
the old man, almost heart-broken, starts
in quest of his willful child. The very
man who stole the heart of his daught-
er, rObs Uncle Josh of his money, about
as quick as he reaches New York.
A man that will make counterfeit
money will do something worse in a
pinch, and Fay becomes a murderer.
Joshua finds his daughter, and after a
reconciliation, the family returns to
their country home. Fay escapes from
Sing Sing, and, like fate, keeps shadow
ing the girl he deceived, almost beats
her to death, and in the saw mill scene
was in the act of finishing his murder
Gus work when Uncle Josh appears
for the rescue, and the criminal
again caught, imPloring for clemency,
is turned loose by his caPtOr out into
the world like Cain, with the mark of
blood upon his face.
After the performance, a dance was
given, the music being furnished by the
Josh Spruceby orchestra.

THE Big p%lURALlIlEs.

ILLINOIS with her 100000 pluf-
atty for Roosevelt popular
plurality never reached in any
other state except in Pennsyl-
vania this year--naturally regards
herself as one of the chief strong
holds of the Presidents personal
popularity. But she must quickly
disabuse her mind of that idea
upon inspection of the official
returns which are coming in from
other states.
The Roosevelt plurality in ILL
nois was less than the total vote
for Parker, which was above
$4,000. But there are already
nine states recorded in which
Roosevelt's plurality was more
than the Parker total vote; or, in
other words, in which Roosevelt
got more than twice as many
votes as Parker. And two Of
these states, Oregon and Wash
ington, gave Roosevelt between
three and four times as many
votes as Parker.
The following table shows thu
significant figures from these
states:

The Mandan Republican de.
clares that Wiley Birchfeld is as
good a policeman as any city ever
had and that we're conditions
there as they are in Dickinson,
and Bismarck not so near, Mr..
Birch6eld could keep order and
do all the work and thus do away
with a second man the same as
Pat Corbett does in this city.
The Press does not know any
thing about Mr.. Birchfeid' ability
and has never brought it into
question. He has just resigned
his position as policeman and
gone back to his old occupation
at Sunnyside. The PRESS would,
however, suggest that Mandan
deal with the bad people of the
east side of the river the same as
Pat Corbett did last summer with
a bad Bismarcker who was made
to wear a ball and chain while he
worked out a sentence of Fl days
on the streets. If Mandan would
adopt this method there would be
very little trouble with toughs.

North Dakota irrigation fund.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-The setting
apart of $4,000 for the Buford- Trenton
and Bismarck pumping projects in
North Dakota, marks the commence
ment Of reclamation operations in
that state. Other appropriations are to
be made from time to time as the Oppor-
~tunities offer, until the government has
done all, for the state that can be done
without neglecting more inviting pro-
jects elsewhere. The Investigations
leading to the recent appropriation were
made during the past summer, under
the direction of H. A. Storrs, electrical
and mechanical expert. A hasty recon-
noissance of the state was made, the
report of Professor Frank A. Wilder of
the North Dakota geological survey,
and the maps Of the Missouri river COM
mission were studied and field work was
begun. A party was organized at Will
liston about Sept. 4, and has made pre-
liminary surveys of the Buford-Trenton
and the Nesson flats, and will continue
working at Williston until the season
closes.
Near the last of September James A..
French, assistant engineer, was directed
to assist in this work with his party, and
spent the remainder of the season in
field work west of Bismarck, with head
quarters at Dickinson for some weeks.
Thus far it has not been deemed
feasible to divert water from the river
and distribute it by gravity to these
flats, owing to the low gradient of the
stream. Fortunately the local condi-
tons are favorable to the use Of steam
pumping plants, it having been found
that large tracts can be supplied by
single plants with comparatively low
lifts and short canals. The supply of
water is abundant and fuel is cheap and
plentiful.
Commencing near the bridge of the
Northern Pacific railway, just west of
Bismarck, and extending south along
the east side of the Missouri river 10
the vicinity of Glencoe, lies a series of
fats covering 10000 acres of land. BY
lifting water from the Missouri river
twenty-five feet at the railway bridge
and delivering it to a canal running
along the upper or eastern part of these
flats, the whole area may be covered.
Above this lies another series of flats.
These are somewhat rolling and their
extent is indefinite, depending largely
upon the lift to which it is economical
to pump. The survey now being made
indicates that a lift of $50 feet above
low water in the river will cover all the
area, including the city of Bismarck.

THAT sprlghtly youth, Gen.
Washburn, has been telling how
many times he has voted for
president. But Mr.. B. S. Russell
Of Jamestown, for whom all good
republicans in this state voted a
few weeks ago for presidential
elector, goes the Minnesota gen.
tleman one better. Mr.. Russell
says he voted first in 1874 for
Henry Clay for president, and
has voted for president ever since
except in 1880 and 1884, when as
a resident of the territory OF
Dakota he was not permitted tc
vote on national questions. Mr.
Russell says he remembers well
the election of 1928. He ex.
presses the hope that General
Washburn will vote at. every
presidential election, including
that of 1924 "when in age he will
be above par" After that Mr.
Russell says it would not be
kindness to wish him a Longer
absence from paradise.-Mandar

Irritation by Wind,

Pioneer Press: The easy practical
bility Of irrigation by q pumping sys-
tenn, where gravity works are unavail.
able-as Is the case in those sections
OF North Dakota where the government
proposes to utilize the water of the
Missouri river-will be evident to any
body who has inspected the array of
pumps operated by windmills at the St.
Louis exposition. The highest Of these
spreads its arms 100 feet in the air, and
with a moderate wind pumps 10000
gallons an hour. The water gushes up
as from a spoutipg artesian we'll, in
quantity sufficient to irrigate a good
sized farm. Cost is reduced to a mini.
mum. The day Is coming when the
borders of all our streams-not only in
arid and semi-arid regions but in states
of uncertain rainfall, like Minnesota and
Wisccnsin-wiIl be lined with crop
insurance apparatus in the shape Of
windmills, whose long arms shall wave
defiance to droughts; while in seasons
of abundant rainfall their power will be
available for 4 dQzen other purposes.

Discovery Of Asthrscite Coal.

Anthracite coal was first discovered in
1901, and during the same year the bust
ness of marketing this new commodity
was started. Today it represents an
industry of wonderful proportions. 1t
was in 1853 that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters was FIRST INTRODUCED to the public,
and because it contained true merit has
progressed so rapidly that for nanny
years it has occupied the first rank as a
family medicine. 1t positively cures
sick headache. heartburn, indigestion,
dyspepsia, constipation. b~iliousness, kid
ney ills, chills, colds and malaria. We
urge all sickly men and women to try it
for it is we'll deserving of a fair trial.
