ORGANIZATION OF ROOSEVELT
,.t COUNTY. Y. +.

Governor White Will Call Special
N Election that Question Of orsaniza-
tion Of Roosevelt County May Be
I Voted On. sEa - H. fS
{ Mr. w. H. Denny. cashier of the
First National Bank at. Williston was
among the guests in the city yester.
day, consulting with Gov. White re-
garding the proposed consolidation Of
Alfred, Mckenzie and Wallace coun-
ties on the south side Of the Missouri
river into an organized county to be
called Roosevelt. Mr.. Denny pre-
scented petition from several hundred
residents of the territory affected,
and obtained from Governor White the
assurance that he would in the near
future call special election that the
residents Of the county might vote on
the question of organization. 4
Mr.. Denny stated to- the Tribune
yesterday afternoon that there were
about 1000 residents in the three
counties and that they were DESTROYS
Of county organization. At present
they are attached to Stark for judicial
purposes and that is over hundred
miles away. They cannot obtain
school privileges not being able to
form school districts. They are anx-
ious to organize, establish schools and
form a county organization, He says
there is. little opposition to the organi-
cation except from several large cat
tie interests, that oppose the plan for
the reason that they do not want to
pay county taxes, but Mr.. Denny does
not think this opposition will be ef-
fective.
The new county is to be called
Roosevelt, for the reason that if any
of the names now, designating the un-
organized counties were to be re-
tanned it might cause jealousy. The
new county would be about IS miles
long and As miles wide.
An effort will also be made by the
people living in that vicinity to obtain
a new Land Office, to be located at
Williston. At present residents of
the county south of the river have to
travel a long distance to Minot to at
tend land Office business.

There is no dangerous stomach

NO LAND SHORTAGE YET.

NO LAND SHORTAGE YET.
The Irrigation Age declares that
there is no immediate cause for worry
about vacant land for the home
seeker. It says:
''The land-grabbing Octopus is
spreading the most alarming reports
concerning the rapid absorption Of the
public domain, declaring that it will
only be a few years until the poor
homeseeker will be unable to find a
vacant spot big enough for garden
patch The cry of the Octopus is that
it is working entirely in the interest
of the future generations, and for that
reason demands that all public lands
be withdrawn from entry, except as
it may be taken up under the general
homestead law.
To show the fallacy Of this position
and that the Octopus is trying to
create q false alarm, it may be stated
that Uncle Sam still owns, exclusive
OF Alaska, over 500,000,000 acres open
to settlement. This does not include
about 100000 acres in forest re-
serves and 6O,oOo,ooo acres in Indian
reservations outside of Indian Terri
tory ,s.nE .,.
The territory still unoccupied and
subject to settlement is over five
-eighths as large as the entire acreage
disposed of under all laws since the
foundation of the government. This

QUESTION OF RECLAMATION.
Government Work On Fort 6uford
Project Now Depends Upon Settlers

|
and Owners Of the Land. s 4.
~ A meeting of great Importance toll
the citizens of North Dakota and east
erns Montana was held this week In
the Office of Chief Engineer Newell Of
the Reclamation Service. Senator
Hansbrough, Congressman Spalding
and Marshall of North Dakota and
Congressman Dixon of Montana were {,
present
The Fl. Buford project in the YELL
lowstone valley was under discussion,
and the detailed maps and prelimin-
airy entimates of the engineers were
carefully gone over. The engineers
reports indicate that the project is
feasible. A canal 70 miles long will
irrigate approximately 10000 acres
at cost Of $25 per acre. This land
is adapted to alfalfa growing, most
valuable crop in this section where
stock raising is the predominant in
dustry. -..!.r, $3.50. -
1t was decided at the meeting to
present the plans to a board of con-
sulting engineers for final approval,
before recommending the project to
the secretary; of the interior for con-
; sideration. The physical questions
surrounding the Fl. Buford project
seem capable of solution. but the
scheme is complicated by problems Of
another character which must be SET
tied before the work can be begun.
The lands belonging to the proposed
canal system are largely in private
ownership fifty per cent of those in
North Dakota and sixty-flve per cent
in Montana having passed from the
government. Should the secretary
approve this project and set aside a
fund for its construction, work could
not be started until the owners Of
private lands formed an association
and agreed to refund to the govern
!, ment the amount expended in the
construction of the work. The esti-
} mated cost is $25 per acre. payable
i. in ten annual installments of $3.50
each. without interest. 81 ;,
The lands belonging to the govern
ment will be opened to entry to bona
, fide homesteaders, and will be subject
! to the same terms. -.
, The Fl. Buford project is now in
, the position Of waiting for the en-.
dorsement of the people. The. prelim-
mary work has been done and the gov
| eminent Is in a position to pass upon
, it so soon as it will be made &C.
j quainted with the wishes of the PEG.
/. pie. From now on the people must
) take the initiative, perfect an organ
ization and present their petition In
proper form to the secretary of the
interior. 49,.
The estimated cost per acre for this
work seems somewhat high. but it is
believed that the increased produc.
tiveness of these lands under a cana
= system which will give them an ample
water supply, will prevent this cost
! from becoming serious burden or
. the settlers in this valley.
i One of the North Dakota congress-
men pointed out that if permanent
water supply would increase the yielt
Of these lands to the amount of one
ton of alfalfa per acre, it would suffice
! for the annual payment required by
the government.

properly represent them throughout the
Northwest, and their efforts has been
Mr.. Metzger employed one stenographer in
his Office. Today In his mail order de-
partment may be heard the continuous
roar of some twenty typewriting ma
chimes, operated by competent stenog-
raphers keeping in touch with the Gus
toners and sending out new matter for
prospective buyers.
The first advertisement that Mr. Metz
ger ever placed in newspaper was
placed in the st. Paul Dailys Globe. From
the time of this first publication he has
been constant advertiser in all the lead
ing papers of the Northwest. He said
yesterday: 'T attribute my success
largely to two things-honesty of goods
and persistent advertising. We receive
and send out more mail matter. than all
the other mail order whiskey houses of the
Northwest combined, and pay more to the
United States government for taxes and
postage stamps than all our competitors.
The business has grown so very rapidly
that we have been obliged to increase our
floor space three times during the past
two and one-haf years, and on Jan. we
will again add 5000 square feet of floor
space to our warehouses to accommodate
our ever increasing business.
''One of the beauties of our business
has been the fact that we never lose a
customer. Recently we have added a full
line of wines and grape brandies that are
distilled at our own vineyards In Cali
fornia. and we have found that these
goods appeal to q class of people who
have never known what the pure Juice of
the grape could really produce in the way
of a high grade wine. This business has
been growing so rapidly with US that it
seemed at times as though we must trans
fer our wine business to much larger and
more commodious quarters than We are
now occupying"
When asked about his future advertis-
ing. he said: Our campaign of adver-
tising has but Just begun. We expect in
the next year to place much larger Or
ders and more orders for advertising
space than we have ever used before"
When asked II he intended to add other
lines, Mr.. Metzger said that they were
going to stick closely to the "Metzger
Rye Whiskey." the high grade California
wines and grape brandy and DR.. Bepp's
Hamburger Stomach Bitters, which have
q reputation all over the world, and for
which this concern Is the sole agent in
the United States. The enterprise shown
by this house only demonstrates what
ability and hard work with liberal adver-
tfsing can accomplish. st. Paul is in
debted to Mr. Metzger for establishing
such business within its borders, and the
success they have attained ought to be an
object lesson to other merchants OF the
Sanity City and encourage them to put
forth their efforts along similar lines. 81
think I have demonstrated that L am
firm believer IN newspaper space, and If
there is any one who Is at all skeptfcal
along that line l have simply to say that
all they need to do isAto watch my adver-
tising for the coming year In spending

spend in newspaper advertising / know

The monk was mashed IN the trundle-
Twas thus with the toys of yesteryear!
Aye, big with hope were those bright
How sweet to gladden. the childish heartl
And they thrilled with pride and they
brimmed with joys
And he tore them, joint from joint,
apart
Explored their in'erds with rapid art,
Stripped them of varnish and paint and

strewed them wide through the house

Oh, where are the toys of yesteryear?

Cometh again the Christmas cheer

To follow the toys of yesteryear.
