cat regard for party affiliations
have nothing but commendation
for President Roosevelt for the
vigorous manner in which he has

Governor VanSant, of Minnesota,

nection, we feel like apologising to
the people Of the neighboring states
for the jelly fish stand taken by our
state executive regarding this case.

One of the most important moves
for North Dakota ever undertaken
is the proposed convention of land
men. Each can help the other in
calling attention to the advantages
this state offers. The situation 10
ripe for this movement. Most of
the government land has been Sc
cured, and the inquiries this spring
and winter came from those Who
wish to buy good soil. There is
no safer investment in the world
todaythan the land here at present
prices. It is great movement for
the state to have these men get
together and unitedly go to work
to show the world what there is
here in this great state of North

frauds. This is class of work
that will be approved by all legiti-

that is, a circular should be sent to

The Goodrich Citizen takes us
to task for the stand we have taken
on the gopher question. The ed
itor of the Leader is still Of the
opinion that a bounty is not the
right way to get at the matter. This
thing of placinga a bounty on pro-
sition such as the gopher destruct-
ion, a work that every man, woman
and child should be interested in
enough to rid their farms of these
pests without being called upon to
receive pay for such work. The
Citizen also says that the bounty
proposition would make the non
residents help bear the burden of
Of cleaning out the gophers, and
we have yet to learn how a gopher
bounty is going to bring a man
out from Iowa to kill gophers. The
gophers on the non-resident's land
will be just as plentiful and des-
tructive under bounty system.
1t is not known to many of the
Younger settlers that Mclean coun-
ty paid bounty, but is fact, and
the records will show that a good
many thousands of dollars were
paid out-and for what? We leave
that to the Citizen to answer. Tn
the article in question the editor
said the crops were damaged more
by the gopher than by the drouth.
Then what became Of all that mon
ey spent by the county. We no.
tice that in a wet year gophers do
no damage to crops. The gophers
this spring will few be and far be
tween, and if every farmer in the
will mix up dose of pois-
on and not be afraid of going on the
land of a nonresident, the gopher
question will soon be settled. There
is another proposition that con-
fronts the farmer today in this
county, and the loss thereby, is
just as great, and that is the noxi-
ous weed pest, but no great howl is
made on this, Just as much grain
IS destroyed.

omnipresent nor omnicient. he
cannot be everywhere nor know
everything that takes place in any

extent, depend upon the people for

visiting you, or if you intend to

of interest occurs, let us know.

miss many important items because
people fail to tell about them in

in it's news items. No one realizes
