MONEY is THE MAN.

The Independent confidently be
lieyes and predicts that George P.
Money, the Democratic nominee, will
be the next delegate to congress from
New Mexico. We base his conclusion
largely upon the fact that the people
are tired Of being ~humbugged and
want a man, who, after he is elected.
can do something for the Territory.
Up to the present time the only rep
resentatives who have succeeded in
accomplishing results have been Dem
ocrats. The two most important mea
sures ever passed for New Mexico
the act establishing the court of pri-
vate land claims and the act donating
public lands-were secured through
the efforts of Delegates Antonio A.
Joseph and H. B. Ferguson, both
Democrats. Mr.. Money has more
ability than Mr.. Rodey, and in addi-
ton will have powerful friends in
congress who can and will befriend
New Mexico and her interests if Mr..
Money is elected. His father. Hon.
H. D. Money, is a leader in the sem
ate, and other relatives occupy high
places. MI. Money will be in posi-
ton to accomplish much for New
Mexico. With such a situation con
fronting the voters, there is every
reason to suppose that the Democrat
ic nominee will receive the suffrage
of the people-Silver City Indepen-

n PRIZE BABY.

The baby show is wen an older
institution than the country fair. One
is not complete without the other.
The big fair at st. Louis is lot to be
outdone in this particular, and has
just awarded a prize to the finest
specimen of babyhood. The prize
goes to Virgil Krell of New York CT
ty. He is aged two years and eight
months, and is declared by the judg-
es to be a child physically perfect
in all proportions, of excellent tenn
per and unusual strength. Strange to
say this child was reared by a man.
1t is not given through the press
the kind of barometer that was usea
to cas- the child's temper, but
the physical measurements are given.
So you who are proud parents Of a
baby boy of about this age a by
comparison judge how nearly your
own child approaches physical per-
lection.
Little Virgil Krell measures eight
inches from shoulder to shoulder.
The chest measurement is 81 inches.
The weight is "a pounds, n the
height is the same number of inches.
These are o the official proportions
of American b%abyhood at the age OF
| two years and eight months.

out of the earth beyond came the

1T is but scant justice to say that
the Russian rank and file bore them
selves in the bloody fight with that
same indifference that for a thous-
and year has been the distinction
of the Slav.
In all their fighting, from the days
of the Golden Horde down through
the centuries with Hun and Frank
and Swede, the Muscovite met no
soldier so lavishly indifferent to los
ing his own blood as those who struck
him in obedience to Oku's orders.
NO European foot soldier can bet
ter fight the Japanese than the Rus
sian, and no Asiatic has shown the
strength against the white mar that
the Jap a SHOWN.
None can deliver an attack better
than the Jap-none can receive it
with calmec indifference than the
Russian did at Lao Yang.
This is the lesson of the fighting

TALK OF IRRIGATION
BEFORE CLUB MEMBERS

A. w. Hadley of the National irriga-
ton Association, F. H. Newell of the u.
S. Geological survey and Hon. Giffort
Pinchot chief forester of the Department
of Agriculture, we're in Minot Friday
in the interests of irrigation, and ad-
dressed crewd of business men at the
commercial club rooms. They are ac-
tive members of the Presidents COM
mission on public lands and were also
investigating the operations of our
present land laws. They wished to con-
suit the business men of Minot regard
ing the outlook of irrigation in the vicin-
ity of Minot. Contrary to the general
opinion, the irrigation which is carried
on in this country, is not to be all done
on a large scale. There may be pumping
stations and let the farmers put them in
themselves.
Newell is conservative man and

Hoff Again in Business.

j. c. Hoff, Minots old time furniture
dealer, has re-opened his furniture store
in this city, after vacation for about
one year, during which time he has been
at his townsite at Palermo booming
things. He is also postmaster at Paler-
mo. Mr.. Hotf's location is just west of
j. M. Wilson's store and next to Van
Exie's studio. Mr.. Hotf is too we'll
known to our readers to need an intro
duction and but for the fact that he
trusted some of his customers too ex-
plicitly in the past, he would have never
needed to have closed his store. His
many friends and good customers will
be glad to learn that he has again en-
barked in business in Minot and those
who know him best, realize that he will
do the right thing.

while he dared not more than hint on
the possibilities of the irrigation for this
country, he spoke on the irrigation along
the Yellowstone river in North Dakota
and Montana.
Mr.. Pinchot spoke on the relations be-
tween the farmers and tree planting
He advised tho farmers to plant trees
ss that will protect the grain against
wind. He is in favor Of repeating the
stone and timber act and placing the
remaining forests in Reserves as has
been dene SO successfully in Europe.
Prof. Chandler who was present be-
lieves that there are 10 600 acres of good
irrigable land along the Knife river and
good reservoir sites along the Cannon
ball river.
The commercial club should now have
committee or irrigation to promote
this great scheme.

Flax is a Good Price.

From the weekly letter furnished by
the Edwards Wood Co. we note the fol-
lowing interesting facts: Wheat was
nervous and irregular, prices chang
ing frequently. Advices from the North
west show that only from quarter to
a third Of the wheat is cut, much is still
green and would be damaged by frosts
this week. In some sections, grain in
the shock is turning black from too
much wet. The price of flax in Duluth
advanced to S1.27 for October, and
promises to keep on advancing. The
new flax crop will move slowly.

NOBODIES RULE THE

TngIand's Parliament Is No Longer
Considered the "Best Club
i'm Europe"

LONDON, March 19.-The British
House of Commons no longer is what
it used to be. In many respects it
has fallen upon evil times. Once it
was "the best club in Europe" Now
adays it is "a collection of nobodies."
There was a time when oratory was
an art cultivated there. At the pres
ent day not even the conversational
method of debate is held in honor. and
members make long, tedious speeches.
which are intended, not so much for
the ear of the House of Commons as
to meet the eye of the electors Of
Northampton in the columns of their
local newspaper. All this and much
more to the same effect is what one
hears in parliamentary London at
every turn. Nobody treats the jere-
miads seriously.

Viscount Hayashi Is Taken From Con-

LONDON, March 19.-viscount
Hayashi, the japanese Minister to
Great Britain, spent several years at
the University of London and returned
to his own country in time to take
part in the rebellion of the reaction
lists. between 1865 and 1868
The revolt was put down and the
revolutionists, Hayashi and the rest
were turned over to the lord high
executioner," who put them in iron
cages until he got ready to cut their
heads off.
About that time the Mikado hap
pened to be in great need of a man
who could interpret English for him
and somebody thought of Hayashi.
The condemned rebel was taken from
his cage and performed the task so
we'll that the Mikado pardoned him and
made him imperial interpreter. At
that time there were only five or six
Japanese who could speak English.

MONORAIL FOR RAPID
TRANSIT is PROPOSED
Inventor BerTi of London Proposes
Two Systems for England's
Metropolis.

LONDON, March 19.-London is
offered monorails as a solution of the
traffic problem. Two schemes, each
costing over s1O,OO0,0O0, have been
prepared by T. b. Berhe, inventor of
the monorail system, which it is pro-
posed TO construct between Manches-
ter. Liverpool and London.
The schemes were laid before the
traffic commission this week. The
first consists of a twelve mile overhead
line, costing $500, 900 per mile. from
the Royal Oak to the Albert and Vic
toria docks. via Camden town, with
branch lines to Willesden, Stepney and
Limehouse.
The second scheme is for a similar
line, costing $685. 900 mile, from the
houses of Parliament to Putney
bridge. along tie Chelsea embank-
ment.
The widening of London bridge, the
100000 contract for which was be-
gun two years ago, is about completed
The improved bridge is eleven and

which were present a number of peo-
pie, who say these things happened:
Soon after a circle was formed the
table began to tip and its edges glowed
with a strange light.
Presently Mr.. Bitroff went into a
trance, stood up. took Mr.. Speranska
by the hand, and led him to a por-
trait Of Chopin, the famous composer
of music. Suddenly the same light
something like an electric glow, illu-
mined the picture for moment.
Mr.. Speranska asked 7 woman pres
ent to place a hand on the piano. She
did so.
Then he put one of his hands on her
head and the other on the portrait,
whereupon the light shone out of the
portrait.
The piano instantly struck up in a
very lively fashion a scherzo by
Chopin. The woman had nothing to
do with the playing, for her hand
merely rested on the Keyboard.

NEW THEATER HAT
Is AN INNOVATION
Fashion AS Prescribed in Paris Says
That 1t Will Be a Close
Fitting Bonnet.

PARIS, March 19-Whether owing to
"a press campaign or a desire for novel
ty, quite a revolution has taken place
in theater hats, many smart women
wearing a small, close fitting bonnet.
These are made of jet and have a sim
pie aigrette on one side of the front
and a large Alsatian bow of Trflle vel
vet, with aigrette.
Recent attempt to dethrone the gold
chain purses from the position they
occupy in a smart womans outfit seem
to have failed, for they are seen as
much as ever in the Rue de Paix- The
latest form, however, is curious. This
is a mascot purse, thoroughly Partisan.
It is shaped like a little pig and can
be carried easily in the hand. 1t will
hold 500 or 500 francs in gold.
During the first empire, when Napo-
Icons admirers expected he would COM
plete the conquest of Europe, the
dresses of the ladies of the court often
were braided in hussar fashion. 1t
would appear that the fashion is about
to be revived in a modified form. Gold
braid and gilt buttons are seen on all
sides and occasionally epaulettes.
Should these come in seriously as a
fashion the sloping shoulder will dis
appear and slender waists once more
be essential
A New York dressmaker, now in
Paris, in an interview asserts the ne
cessity of copying Partisan models. but
says notifications are necessary be-
cause Americans want dresses closely
fitting. The competition is less keen

sides would have averted hostilities,
but that the working classes in japan,

aversion to suffering before wars

of wanton torture of children by par
ents and brutality on vessels of the
codfshing feet. The masters of these
vessels when at home in Brittany to
all appearances are respectable and

ENGLAND LAUGHS AT
BERLIN'S FASHION IDEAS
London Merchants Say Teutonic
Style Will Not Be Sue
CeSSfuI


BERLIN, March 19.-At a recent
meeting of the Berlin section of the
German Merchants League, in which
the dressmaking and dry goods trades
were most strongly represented; the
possibility of distinctive German
style was discussed. A committee was
appointed which will report its find
ings to the next meeting.
An authority upon the drapery
trades. whose opinion was yesterday
invited. laughed openly at the idea
of German fashions. The strength Of
Germany, he said. lay in the direction
of workmanship and adaptability. In
any attempt to invent fashions of her
own she would be doomed to failure.
France was not only artistic, he said,
but its capital was the fashionable
metropolis of the world. The result
was that the designing of the decora-
tive side of the drapery trades lies in
French hands; the light goods which
are most easily changed by fashion are
French in design though sometimes
they are made in Germany.
The only claim which Germany pos
sesses to be considered a fashion-mak-
err is summed up as follows: If one
of these designs is successful it is
copied more cheaply in the East End
of London. The German, however.
cannot complain, for the original de-
sign is not really his.
