Tuesday evening the citizens OF
Dickinson met at the opera house to
consider the matter of water works.
About Is people were present, repre-
senting a very large proportion of the
business men and large tax payers Of
the city. A. billiard was elected chair
man and Nj. L. Ayers, secretary. 1t was
very quickly ascertained that the men
present wanted water works and mu-
nicipal ownership. Messrs. Hilliard,
McG lllivray, Senour, Berry, Stickney,
Crawford, Richards, Crowl. Walton,
kim, Lish, lessen, van der Las and
many others expressed themselves as in
favor of water works. In fact, Mr..
Simpson was the only one at the meet
ing who'opposed the measure. He said
he wanted the city to grant a franchise
to some corporation. The chair appoin-
ted a committee OF 10 to 60 and work for
city bonds, that is to explain things
to the voters and urge them to getout
AT the opening of the polls the following
morning the business men were found
with their coats off and hard at work

south side had been misinformed and
that for some time they had been care

would be a good thing and by moor i
was quite evident that the supporters o

The Voice Of sincerity.

Children are said to be good, al
though unconscious, Judges Of human
nature. and most Of them do at least
recognize sincerity and detect pretense.
"Come here, my little darling" said
the book agent. She had a face which
belied her words, but she was trying
to cultivate the little daughter Of the
woman who had not yet come down
stairs. 81 do SO love children" she
added, in a clear tone, as she heard
footsteps on the stairs, 'but you seem
to like the kitty better than me. Why
are you so fond of herr"
"'Cause she purs as if she meant

Founded on Herring Bones.

HOuh0e0 ON herring bones.
Dutch monopoly of the North sea
fishing grounds during the seventeenth
century brought such wealth and pros
perity to Amsterdam that the capital
Of Holland was popularity said to be
founded on herring bones. No less
than 10000 Hollanders were directly
engaged in fishing the coasts from
near Yarmouth to as far north as the
Shetlands, and 10000 more were en-
ployed, indirectly, in the distribution
and sale of the fish. Sir Walter Raleigh
pointed out to James 1. how the Dutch
sold to the Yarmouth herring mongers
fish caught i'll their W sea- for Eng
lish gold, with which they built an
nually a thousand ships and fishing
boats.

Cow Boys CorraIled.

Mckenzie county is a very large stock
country now comprized of Aired and
Wallace county in the northwest corner
of the state, and having no representa-
ton in the legislature.
According to the Minot Optic, F. B.
Chapman has got the COW boys corralled
bv getting the legislature to pass a bill
to organize the county and place the
county seat where he wants it
The following is clipped from the
Minot Optic:
"Frank B. Chapman of Buford, N. D..
national bank examiner, is in the city
today, and in an interview with the
Optic gave out some interesting infor.
NATION regarding Mckenzie county,
which is located about IS miles from
thi; city, and which is owned entirely
by Mr.. Chapman, who has located the
county seat at Alexander, situated near
the geographical center of the county.
Governor Sarles has recently appointed
all the necessary county officers who
will soon establish offices at Alexander.
The county has been divided into two
school districts, which will be increased
as the population of the county in.
creases. At the present time Alexander
/, is an. inland town, but according to MIR.
Chapman the Northern Pacific roadvwill
build a line through the county, entering
the county seat from the southeast.
The city has been laid out in a very
excellent manner, the work of surveying
having been completed only last Tues
day. The court house is to be located
IN the Court House Square. which is 600
feet square and is located in the center
of the city; the streets are very wide
and at the rear OF all the business lots
are alleys which will assist greatly in
protecting the city from a big fire. The
business lots are al. thirty feet wide,
giving d first class frontage. Papers
are being circulated asking for the
establishment ut d post office at the
county seat and 4 fine stone bank is now
in the course of construction, as are
also TWO large business blocks. The
sale OF land in the county has been
stopped until the %survevers have COM
pleled their work which will be in
abou, three months time: The soil is
very good for farming and as soon as
the land is re-opened for sale a large
number of people will take up their
residence in Mckenzie county. MI
Chapman is very enthusiastic. over tie
prospect OF his county and he states
that it will not be long before Mckenzie
county will become a leading factor in
the commercial, industrial and political
; life Of North Dakota"
The latter may be true, so far as Mr.
Chapman is concerned, but how abou,
the people at larger Have they nc
right to say where they shall pay thei1
taxes? They have not been represented
nor have they had any voice in tn.
matter, and things have been regardless
of the wishes and convenience of tn,
majority Of the people. 1t is believed
that all this is unconstitutional. VIII,
not let the people organize themselve
at the next general election. if they ar
] ready to do so? The quoted articl
speaks Tor itself, and people living il
. the county, who know the situation
: we'll. expect to get redress at til

In a place where time had ceased,
And we talked of my former living
In the land where the years increased.
The ghosts of forgotten actions

And things that l thought were dead

The vision Of my past life

Alone with my conscience setting
In that silently solemn place.

WASHINGTON. June 24.-Congress will take up the Bowen-Loomis scan- dal, it is believed in official circles.
 None of the heads of departments will make any reply to Bowen's chal- lenge that he has been wronged. Around the state department 1t is said, however. LoOmis will get no higher post. This pleases the friends of Bow en. for it was known that President Roosevelt had contemplated making an ambassador of Loomis at the first op- portunity.
 Bowen's statement that he had been offered an advancement to the Chi lean post as a bribe to silence in the Loomis charge is not seriously regard cd here.
