HARRIS SAYS
GOOD BYE
Gives Farewell Reception
and Ball to People of Ten
strike Last Night.

j. O. Harris, proprietor Of the
Richards hotel at Tenstrike, and
the choice of the people Of Bel
trami county for the Office of reg.
lister of deeds for the ensuing
two years, last night gave a fare
we'll reception and ball at his
hotel in Tenstrike and nearly the
whole population of the thriving
up line town turned out to bid
Mr.. Harris good bye on the eve OF
his departure to Bemidji to take
up his residence here during the
time he holds Office. Mr.. Harris
issued a general invitation to all
the people of Tenstrike especially
and the number of friends who
turned out to honor him proved
his general popularity. The Be
midi orchestra went up to fur
nished music for the occasion.
During the absence of Mr.. Harris
his brother, Walter, will take
charge of the hostelry.

CANNOT RUDGE
THE INDIANS
Settler Scared by the Pres
ence Of Too Many
Red Men.

Finding that his homestead
claimis occupied by Indians, who
he alleges, he did not know were
on the land, Andrew Karvela, q
settler in township 64-2O, on the
banks Of Pelican lake, about forty
miles north of Hibbing, has petit
toned the land office to relinq uish
his claim and give him land at AN
other point. Karvela asserts
that there are from sixty to
eighty Indians on the land and
that he is afraid to move his fam
lily to the claim.
The Indians have refused to go
and Karvela states. have built
additional shacks on the land and
seem disposed to make it their
permanent home.

ON YARDS
OF RED TAPE
Agent Says That Set.
tiers Must Live Strictly
to Letter Of Law.

Special Agent Layman, of the
u. S. land Office, whose duty it is
to see that the, homesteaders
comply with the law, states that
the law governing homestead
residence and cultivation will
have to be strictly complied with
in the future and intends to in
vestigate all cases of settlers
proving up to see that they have
complied with the law. This is a
new departure in the land Office
and many who had no trouble in
making final proof a few months
ago would not be able to do so
now. Especially do settlers who
wish to prove up in fourteen
months find it difficult.
u. s.. commissioners are at the
present time compelled to have
special agents present at the
time final proofs are accepted
and the red tape necessary for
the actual settler to secure his
final deeds is a great deal more
complicated than it formerly was.
The business done by the com.
missioners in the northern por-
ton of the state is very large and
Mr.. Layman expects to be kept
very busy with the calls from
one commissioner to another to
examine into the good intentions
and the actions of intending final
proof makers.

TRAIN WRECK
AT TENSTRIKE
Car Loaded With Horses
Leaves Track Causing
Serious Damage.

A freightcar loaded with heavy
horses intended for the woods
left the track at Tenstrike last
night, seriously injuring two of
the horses, and tits probable that
at least one of the animals will be
dispatched. The regular way
freight was making its trip up.
the line and while switching at
Tenstrike the car jumped from
the rails and turned completely
over. Help was speedily sum
moned and the car was broken
open and the animals released.
The horses were owned by far
mers from Benoit and were being
taken to different lumber camps
in the vicinity Of Kelliher.

Final Nee ting of Old Board
Of County Commission
ers Held Today.
NEW MEMBERS WILL SIT AT
THE NEXT MEETING.
johnson, Anderson, McDOugald
Retire. ..Gunderson, Wagner,
Danaher Take Seats.

Although the meeting of the
board of county com mlssloners
held today was unimportant in
the amount Of business trans
acted, it was more than of ordin-
airy consequence because after
the adjournment of the present
session three of the members of
the board who now hold Office
will be replaced by the new men
elected to take their places.
Commissioner Anderson of the
fourth district, McDougald of
the second and Johnson OF the
fifth will retire after the present
meeting is concluded and the
n,xt session of the county dads
will see the body composed of
two old and three new members
Andy Danaher of the fifth dis
trict will be seated, Joseph Wag-
ner of the fourth district will
take up the burdens of a county
dad, and George Gunderson of
Blackjack will be present to look
after the interests of the second
district, to succeed the present
incumbent, John McDougald.
The changing of three mem
bers out of five of a body with the
wide powers vested in board Of
county com missioners may make
a radical difference in the actions
of the board, and it is possible
that some radical changes will
be made in it's policy.
The Present board of Commits.
sioners Sibley, Wright, McDou.
gal, Anderson and Johnson, has
administered the affairs of the
county in a manner which has
created general satisfaction and
expressions of regret at the re.
tirement of Messrs McDougald,
Johnson and Anderson are gen,
eral. All the members of the
present board have been faithful
hard working com missioners and
it is safe to say that few new
counties have been so carefully
and ably administered as has
Beltrami.
The new members of the board
are gentlemen we'll known
throughout the county and there
is every reason to believe that
their administration of the
county S affairs will be as efficient
and satisfactory as that Of their
predecessors.

SUCCESSFUL DRAINAGE
Of SUB-IRRiGATED LANDS
The Projects Which Have Been Tes-
ted Are Proving Practical-Sunny-
side Commissioners Visit.

As a result of necessarily continued ir-
rigation in the valleys of Yakima county,
much very valuable land has become
sub-irrigated, to such an extent that its
utility proved impracticable. The ques-
ton of how to reclaim lands of this kind,
for long time proved to be a hard and
almost impossible problem to solve. In
quires were made, engineers OF national
reputation sent for, until finally recog-
nized drainage has been established in
/ the valley, which is working out situa-
ton OF encouraging aspects,
A notable instance of this practical
drainage system may be cited in the now
almost complete reclamation OF Del His
cocks farm in the Mckee valley. Two
years ago Mr.. lIscock found it almost
impossible to raise enough hops to clear
! the expenses of his place. This was due
to the excessive sub-rrigating, the water
naturally drawing the alkali in the soil
to the surface and thereby killing all
vegetable growth except the salt grass.
! Upon the advice OF an engineer, Mr..
Hiscock had the land drained by means
OF bitches sunk to a depth of AZ feet on
! his farm the laterals leading 20 the main
ditch constructed on the boundry line OF
the ranch, and these main bitches being
in depth about six feet. This year Mr..
Hiscock has very fine crop on the north
10 OF his so acre farm and by next year
| the south 40 will have been reclaimed so
as to place the so acres in as fine a pro-
other instances OF this charac er between
| here and Yakima City and out in the
School Section where sub-irrigated and
alkali lands have been reclaimed by
means of these drainage canals.
Last week the commissioners from the
only drainage district established in this
county, viz: F. r. Noble d. B. Ely and
j. A. Rush of the Sunnyside, came up
here for the purpose of looking into these
experimental systems of drainage and
determine ii possible upon the feasibility
of trying the scheme in the Sunnvside
country. They were greatly pleased at
what they saw, having visited the farms
upon which the scheme had been tiled
and found them all far above their most
sanguine expectations. The commission
ers OF this new drainage district are going
to put in several miles OF ditch work in
the Sunnyside country for this purpose.
1t will no doubt prove successful.

About Horse Heaven Wheat.

Reports from the Horse Heaven coun-
try of late are very encouraging for the
wheat growers of that locality. The
biggest crop that was ever known in the
history of that section will be harvested
this year People from there say the
wheat stands so thick in places that the
big combination harvesters are often
stalled from their inability to thresh
the grain. Many of the acres will yield
in the neighborhood of fifty bushels. As
wheat will in all probability bring a big
price this fall. the Indications are that
the wheat growers of the Horse Heaven
country will coin money.

AN ATTEMPT TO ROB
ALEX McCREDY'S STORE
Bold Burglar Breaks Window i'm Rear
of Store at Wapato and Barely
Escapes with His Life.

Last Thursday night at WapatO station
the store OF Alex McCredy was entered
by burglar who barely escaped with
his life on being discovered soon after.
The robber took advantage of the noise
made by Il passing train and, throwing
a rock against the rear window of the
store, smashed it in so as to permit of
his body passing through. He then
crawled through the hole and started for
the safe, apparently intending to blow it
open. The man who sleeps in the stol e
was awakened by the approach OF the
robber and grabbing a repeating rife
came forward and in stenatorian voice
demanded of the intruder what he want
ed. Upon such a challenge the burglar
began TO retreat. \ shot rang out and
then another in quick succession, fol-
lowed by the hurried exit of the night
marauder, who pitched headlong out of
the window just in time to make room
for bullet which followed.
The neghbors were aroused and a
hurried examination OF the premises dis
closed the fact that one bullet had hit a
stove in the store, another had pierced a
box OF shirts and a third tore a hole in a
window pane. There was left behind by
the robber an axe, tin can in which
there was a small candle used for a dark
lantern and some other crude parapher-
MALTA. No trace Of the burglar could be
found and it is not known whether or
not he had accomplices.
