Editor Streeter of the Emmons
County Record, was the regular and
fairly nominated republican candidate
for the legislature in the Goth district.
He has been elected by good MAORI
ty. Mr.. Patterson, proprietor of the
opposition paper, as a member of the
state committee, ought to have sup
ported the nominee of his party
whether he liked him personally or
not, and now after election it would
seem short sighted for Mr.. Patterson
or any other leading republican of the
district to keep up the opposition An
effort should be made on the contrary

Washington advices convey the in
formation that the government en-
gineers have reported favorably upon
an irrigation project at Bismarck, con-
templating the expenditure of $3.50, 900
for a pumping plant and gravity ditch
es, by which water from the Missouri
river may be turned out upon the bench
lands insuring stable supply of
moisture that will make the fertile
lands blossom as a rose. 1t is under
stood that an area of 10000 to $4,000
acres can be irrigated with such
plant as suggested, and it may not
be out Of place to suggest that such
project, carried out, will mean more
to Bismarck than any past or present
enterprise yet put in operation. An
irrigated area Of $4,000 acres in this
vicinity, divided into moderate sized
tracts and farmed intelligently will
be more productive than hundreds of
thousands of acres under natural con-
ditions. But it must be remembered
that the cooperation Of the persons
owning land in the area proposed to
be irrigated is necessary before this
work will be begun by the government.
Owners of land will have to form
water users association, agree to SUBJ
divide their land and sell it in forty
or eighty acre tracts, and the Joint
owners will then have to agree to pay
the cost Of putting the water on the
land and water rental for the main
tenance of the plant, once established.
Owners of large tracts of land can
well afford to unite for this purpose,
as the benefits to result to them and
the community will far outweigh any
sentimental objection they may feel
to disposing Of land for division into
irrigated tracts. It is we'll known
fact that twenty acres of irrigated
land rightly farmed will be more pro-
ductive than ten times that quantity
OF non-irrigated land, particularly in
a territory where the rainfall is fire.
quently deficient at those seasons
when it is most needed. It is indeed
to be hoped that, if the secretary of
the interior approves the project that
has been submitted, there may be no
difficulty placed in the way by own
ers Of property, and it is not believed
there will be.

TAKE PATTERN AFTER BISMARCK
Minot City Council Removes the Chief
Of Police While the Mayor Is

Minot City Council Removes the Chief
Of Police While the Mayor Is
Away.
Minot, N. D., Nov. 16.-J. P. Shields,
Dear Sir: This is to notify you that
the city council at an adjourned meet
ing held Nov. IA, 1904, revoked your
appointment by resolution as a chief
of police. The actig mayor appointed
in your stead D. H. Kimball, which
appointment was duly confirmed, the
change to take place today. w. c.
McHugh, auditor.
The above notice was served on
Chief of Police Shields yesterday, says
The Minot Optic.
In accordance with it's provisions
the chief has retired, at least tempo
rarily.
The officer was told when the notice
was served upon him that he had been
derelict in the performance of certain
Of his duties and for that reason he
had been decapitated.
i The action was taken at an adjourn
a meeting of the city council on Tues
day evening, at which Alderman
Greenleaf, Ramstad, Jacobson and
Davis were the only members present,
and at which meeting Alderman Jacob
son presided.
Mayor Roach, who appointed Chief
Shields, has been in st. Paul since last
Sunday, and was not present at the
decapitating, adjourned meeting of
the city council.
The mayor is still absent from the
city and The Optic does not know
what course he will pursue when he
returns. It is likely, however, that he
will reinstate Chief Shields, and then
1t will be up to the city council to con
firm the appointment. .>'
The controversy is perhaps an exact
counterpart Of the Bismarck munich.

for some time. n, a@:.

The statement in the Linton Advo-
cate, that Mr.. Jewell was in any way
disappointed in the nomination or
election of Editor Streeter to the leg
islature, is not justified by the facts.
For quarter of a century Mr.. Jewell
and Mr.. Streeter have been personal
friends, not always agreeing on politi-
cal procedure, but at no turn in the
road-Mr. Streeter's election after
math article to the contrary notwith-
standing-has Mr.. Jewell opposed Mr..
Streeter. On the contrary he has
urged those clothed with political
power to "let up" on Streeter and sup
port him and believes that in a small
measure at least he was instrumental
in smoothing the way for him. The
Tribune did not oppose Mr.. Streeter.
It favored him as it favored every
other republican nominee. whether in
}Burleigh or surrounding counties.
Nor did Mr.. Jewell have anything to
do with the naming of the executive
committeeman from the district, as
Mr.. Streeter> has charged. Nor did
Mr.. Jewell favor the seating of the
so-called Lyons delegation from Kid
der county at the Fargo convention,
as Mr.. Streeter has charged And this
fact, Mr.. Patterson, who was there,
knows of his own personal knowledge
to be fact. Simply because Mr..
Streeter. not personally conversant
with the inside facts of some matters
political affecting his district and the
acts and motives of some outsiders in
relation thereto, has unjustly criti-
cised old friends is no justification
for like indiscretion on the part of
his newspaper and personal opponent
Of the Advocate.

OFFICERS ELECTED.
County Board Of A. o. n. and Ladies
Auxiliary Have Joyous Time.
From MONDAYS Daily.

The county board of the Ancient Or
der of Hibernians met at Williams hal
yesterday afternoon and transacted a
good deal of business. 1t was the quar-.
terly meeting, but the biennial cleo
ton of officers took place. Robert Madi
gan was elected president, P. H. Jordan
vice president, 7. B. Murtaugh secretary
and Daniel Coughlan treasurer.
The Ladies' Auxiliary held its meet
ing at the same time, and elected Mrs
John Mcnamara president, Mrs. A. n
Riley vice president, Miss Laura Kelly
secretary, and Mrs. Mary Sullivan treas.
urer.
About forty were present, including
ladies and gentlemen, and when the bus
mess sessions were concluded, all ad-
journed to the Minneopa House, where
an elegant supper was served at five
o'clock. The whole affair was a most
pleasant one.

MORE DIRECTORS ADDED.
Street Railway Company Will Reduce
Its capitalization.
From Wednesdays Daily.

1t will certainly be good news to the
people of Blue Earth county to learn
that the street railway project is APP
preaching such a stage as to bring
definite and visible results within a
short time. The plans of the local COM
pany will be somewhat changed. Several
business men will be added to strengthen
the organization and additional directors
provided for. The authorized capital
zation will also be diminished to rep
resent the actual cost of construction
of the entire line and heating plant
so that there can be no charge made as
to any attempt to water the stock.
There is yet lacking about 100000 of
the 100000 to be subscribed, but the
directors at meeting last night felt
sufficiently encouraged by the success
made so far to make definite plans for
the engineering work. The country dis
tricts have done very well so far, and
there is not the least doubt as to their
being able to carry out their respec-
tive agreements. The city is yet furth-
est behind and Mr. Silver has left the
country districts to be completed by the
local parties and will now take up the
work in the city. 1t is to be hoped
that the business men who have not yet
assisted will do so Immediately, so that
work can be commenced this fall.
Mr.. Damkroger, who made the first
survey to ST. Clair, has been engaged to
make the permanent survey and profiles
for the contractor, and will soon begin
work. J. c. Ostrup of Boston, an en-
gineer of international reputation, has
been engaged to draw plans and speci-
fcations, and he and the contractor are
expected here Immediately to begin
work on the plans and specifications.

FRUSTRATED BY ACCIDENT
Mrs. D. L. Rose Has an Experience
With Runaway Horse.
From MONDAYS Daily

Dickinson L. Rose left yesterday for
California, where he will meet his wife,
of whose accident with horse and bug
gy he has been informed by letter. Some
days ago Mrs. Rose and her little boy,
Reed, were seated together in buggy in
front of store at Ocean Park, Cal,
when the horse was frightened by a
passing automobile, and ran away. The
child jumped out of the buggy and was
not hurt. Mrs. Rose got her feet caugh
in one of the wheels, and might have
been terribly hurt, had not the horse
been brought to a halt by a young
Spaniard, who was the only person in a
large crowd of bystanders, that had suf-
ficient courage to come to the rescue of
the endangered lady. Mrs. Rose was NOV
injured by the accident, but, being in
delicate health, was completely pros
trated by the nervous shock.
