Towner News and Stockman: A
surveying crew arrived Monday and
drove out on the G.. N. branch and
began work plating the new townsites
on the branch. AS soon as the town
sites are plated, building will begin
at once and fourishing towns will
spring into existence almost in single
night. Already applications have
been made for at least 25 lots in each
of the new towns in this county. The

reason why the railroads should not

lege, and it is entirely proper that they
should take advantage Of their oppor-

out.a great deal of their argument on
the rate question in the form Of news

duced as original matter by good
many Of the papers to which they are

Omemee Herald: It is pleasing to
note the unbounded faith that moneyed
men from other sections of the country
have in Bottineau county. Every train
from the east brings into Omemee sew
eral men who are looking for business
locations or land investments. On
account of the new railroad lines this
county is being widely advertised and
is reaping the benefit of it. Five or
six new towns will be started and no
less than twelve new banks will be es-
3tablished in Bottineau county. Mer-
chants from other parts of the state ale
making trips here sizing up the situa.
tion and they invariably express them
selves as pleased with the outlook. A
mill or two will undoubtedly be estab-
lished. With the increased population
caused by the new towns the local de-
mand for -four would make another
mill in the county paying proposition.
Omemee should make some move to-
wards securing one. It is the best
location in the county for such an en-
terprise.

It says that on September P sthe assets were attached in suits insti- stuted by the Hartford Lumber compa- my and the Tunnel Coal company, that there has been gross mismanagement. and that the assets are in danger of waste. The plaintiff alleged that it would be for the best interests of the
 creditors that 8 receiver be appointed.

 New York, Sept. 27.-The pending in- vestigation of life insurance conditions shows that there has never been any attempt at concealment of the relation of the Mutual Life to the trust com- panies and banks in which it's deposits have been made. All the companys S annual reports and it's statement to the superintendents and commissioners of insurance in all the states have con- tained a complete list of it's holdings of stock in these institutions, and have shown the cost and market values of the stocks.

DOWN WITH THE STATE MACHINE, IF
IT CARRIES THE WHOLE THING
WITH IT.

The whiskey question will not
down, it is the burning question
of the hour, and why: Because
it is not settled, and will not be
settled until it is settled right.
We said last week that it would
not surprise US if Clarendon
county voted out the dispensary
if a test were made. We go one
better now, and say it would
surprise us very much if Claren-
don did not vote out the dispen-
sary if the opportunity is offer
ed. Not because we believe a
majority favor the kind of pro
hibition we are likely to have,
but because the majority are
thoroughly disgusted with the
present conditions.

lieve prohibition laws will re-
lieve US from the damnable in
Huence of liquor. There are
plenty of better men, perhaps,
who think otherwise. We regard
prohibition impracticable unless
localized. That is to say: In our
opinion, no prohibition law can
be effective unless the people
want it to be, and if the people
Of u community are going to vote
prohibition one day and order
whiskey from abroad the next,
the whole thing falls, and we
are confronted with as bad Or
worse condition than before the
vote was taken: in our opinion
prohibition can only be effective
in communities where the peo-
pie determine to stop drinking
liquor.
We said we are not a Prohibi
zionist, but if we are to take our
choice between continuing that

POLITICS FUR NE, ASSOCIATION FOR
YOU" SAYS THE OFFICEHOLDER.

1t is real amusing to hear the
politicians protesting against
the discussion OF politics. They
are perfectly willing for others
to discuss any and everything
except politics at any and all
times, but they are opposed to
politics being mentioned by any
body but themselves. The mod
ern politician has an idea that
he has the sole right to politics,
and he exercises that right on all
occasions. whether it is a picnic,
preaching, funeral, marriage or
any place where there is an as
sembly of men. but just let some
thing start that needs work. time
and money to make it success,
the sniveling politician starts up
sentiment Of suspicion against
those prominently engaged in
the work, and they cry out keep
politicians out" We say. keep
politics out of the Cotton Grow
ers' Association, and we also say
keep those out who are opposed
to any and everything that is
for the good of the many until
they find it has become success.
If they will not take hold to
make the success, they are too
late in coming in to reap the
benefit.
The cotton association has
made wonderful strides, and It's
success is due to those men who
went down into theil. pockets
and attend the New Orleans con-
vension, and have ever since
been working for the organiza-
ton. The political officeholders
made themselves mighty scarce
when this movement began, but
now since success has crowned
the efforts Of the association
every now and then a prominent
ohiceholder opens his mouth, and
it is these latter day saints who
protest most loudly lou aijT- against 9th
-ers bringing politics into theass-
sociation. We have never as yet
heard of q single United States
Senator or Congressman from
South Carolina who has enrolled
his name in the Cotton Growers
Association. and yet the friends
of some Of these are constantly
giving out a warning against
politics creeping in. There is
no necessity for politics to get
INTO the association, especially
State politics. There may be a
necessity to procure national leg
islation, in fact there is right
now need to have men in Con-
eress who will devise some leg
islation to put this country in a
friendly commercial relation
with China. The officers of the
association are working every
day along this line and if they
fail to secure what they want
from the departments at Wash
ington, they should have
the help upon the floors of
Congress. But when it comes
to local political issues the
association should not be
permitted as such to have any
thing to do with it.
