Has Faith in the SIope-Capt. c. w.
Darling of Fargo has been spending
several days In the county looking
after his landed interests and is great
ly pleased with conditions generally.
Capt. Darling is one of the few Red
river valley men who had faith early
in this part of the state, which he ex-
emplif1ed fifteen years ago by extern
sive purchases of farm land. In
speaking of this section today he
said: "A wonderful change has come
over this country in the past five
years fact since new settlers have
begun coming in. Most of these were
practical farmers from the great agri-
cultural states who were not afraid Of
work-an af1iction which had become
second nature to many Of the old
timers. They have farmed intelligent
ly, piowed their land deeply, kept it
well cultivated and rotated their crops.
Why, I met q farmer yesterday, an
old timer, who did not have a very
good crop, while his, new neighbors
had splendid stands OF grain. On In
quiry I found he sowed the same
grain ON the same land year in and
year out, and only plowed two inches
deep. He could not be convinced that
deep blowing would hold the moisture
an did not take kindly to sowing wheat
on corn land and vice versa. It IL
such men who have retarded the
growth Of this section. I have made a
mortal enemy of a farmer of this
class by selling a section of land adj
joining his place to party who will
cultivate 1t. had offered the land 4
several times to the farmer at 4 low
price, but there was no object III his
buying it, to his mind, when he could
herd his sheep and cattle on it with
out cost. Now he will have to raise
feed for his critters and he considers
have done him a rank injustice. A
representative of the agriculture de-
partment at Washington told me the
other day western North Dakota had
the finest grass in the world, and that
In time the state would become one Of
the greatest dairy states of the
Union. But it will not reach that
prominence until the farmers are
willing to become wealthy through
labor. Happily the west country is
rapidly tilllhg up with men who care
for more than a bare living, who, for
the immense gain In protits are
abreast OF the times in modern meth
dds OF agriculture and are broad
enough to adapt themselves to the
soil and climatic conditions here. and
overcome by Intelligent Farming the
difficulties that arise. The Missouri
Slope has q great future before It and

Two Children Cremated in
Fire at NOrthOme Tues
day Night.
FIRE STARTED In ABSENCE OF
PARENTS.
Home of John Engelking Entirely
Destroyed Together With
Contents.

The two children of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Engelking of North
ONE were burned to death in a
fire that destroyed their home a
mile from that city Tuesday
night.
The fire started during the
absence of the parents, who left
the two children, the eldest of
whom was 10 years of age, to
take care of the house during the
time they were away. A desper-
ate effort to escape the flames
was made by the children, but
before they could gain the door
they were overcome by smoke
aud were forced to succumb to
the fury of the flames.
A large crowd gathered at the
scene of the fire, but the flames
had gained too much Roadway
before their arrival and they were
powerless to aid the sufferers,
who were literally cremated.
The building is total loss, and
not a cents worth of household
goods or personal effects was
saved from the flames.

Remains of Albert HER, a
Homesterder, Found Near
His Burned Cabin.
MAY PROVE TO BE ANOTHER
DAHL AFFAIR.
Coroner Marcum Left Yesterday
for the Scene Of the Tradegy
to Investigate.

A telephone message was re.
ceived late yesterday afternoon
from Thief River Falls to the
effect that the remains Of Albert
HER, a homesteader, who for the
past five years has lived on his
claim about As miles east of Thief
River Falls in Beltrami county
had been found Tuesday by
neighbors a fe " rods from his
burned cabin.
The theory in connection with
the affair is that Heir was robbed,
and murdered and that the fends
committing the crime, to hide
any trace Of the affair in the cab.
in had burned it and fed. AS
far as could be learned suspicion
had not been attached to any one
in the Immediate eigLborhood.
The remains were found by
neighbors who happened to be
passing Hers place, and from
appearances the crime had been
committed within a day or two
of when the remains were found.
HER filed on the land located
on section 81, township 1856,
range 81, November 2, 1899, and
he was to have proven up on
March 6 next. When he filed his
papers his postoffice was Grygla.
which is near where the claim is
located, but it is understood that
be had arrived recently from
New York state.
The neighbors who brought
the news to Thief River Falls
were SO excited that they got
tangled up in their story. Some
said HER had been shot and
others said his head had been
badly mutilated with club.
It was later learned that the
ruins of the house were still
smoking when the remains were
found Tuesday morning, which
would Indicate that the crime
had been com mitted the previous
night. HER was a single man
and nothing is known of his rela-
tives.
Coroner e. H. Marcum was
notified by telephone from Thief
River Falls and left on the west
bound train for that city and
from there he will go to the
scene of the supposed tragedy.
Deputy Sheriff Brose left this
morning and in case evidence can
be secured against anyone ar
rests will be made.

Indians in Debt.

Nearly all Of the Indians are
heavily in debt at the stores and
a good share Of the payment will

rest will be spent to a penny

machines to ribbons and gew-

Indians Disappointed.

"S
By treaty with the Indians a
year ago the government acquir-
ed eleven townships on the coded
Red Lake reservation near Thief
River Falls, and the land was
thrown open to settlement the
past summer. Under agreement
with the Indians the land was to
be sold outright and to be paid
for in five equal annual install
ments, and the Indians of the
Red Lake reservation were with
in 80 days of the closing Of the
sale to be paid the full amount Of
the first payment made on the
land less $4,000 to be reserved
for transferring the Indians then
on the land, for moving their
dead and for paying for the value
Of the Improvements they had
made. The first payment
amounted to $4,000 and this,
less $4,000 the Red Lake indians
expected to receive at this time,
share and share alike. Secretary
Hitchcock however, ruled thatonly
the adult Indians, those over 10
years Of age should be paid, thus
making the total payment only
$4,000 instead of $4,000.
Deyision is Legal.

cordance. with the agreement

cordance with the act of congress.
enacting the treaty and authoriz
ing the sale Of the land, is never.
theless held to be well taken.
According to the decision of the
supreme court Of the United
States in the Lone Wolf case,
arising out a dispute in connec
ton with the opening Of the KioWa
and Comache reservation in
Oklahoma in 1902, the depart
ment of the interior may alter
any agreement made with the
Indians so long as the rights of
the Indians under the treaty are
not prejudiced thereby. In the
present instance it is held by
Secretary Hitchcock that it will
be better for the Indians if the
children are not paid until they
become of age-18 years. AS
fast as they reach this age they
will be paid.

When this decision was com

ADVICE TO BOYS.

Judge Wofford of Kansas City
in recent address to boys gave
advice which, If needed, would
soon revolutionize the country. 1t
should be read to every boy in the
United States.
81 have been on the bench four
teen years and during that time
thousands of boys have been
brought before me, but not one Of
them was constant attendant at
church or Sunday school, or obe-
dent to his father or mother. /
have inquired of many boys what
caused them to get into trouble and
have found that in most instances,
stayingaway from homeandschool,
playing pool, hanging around sa-
looms and cigarette smoking are
responsible.
"Start right, boys. To be any
body, to accomplish anything for
yourself or the community you
cannot be idle. Don't drink -liqu-
or destroys the mind and body.
Don't swear gentlemen do not.
"It is low and vulgar. Don't
read trashy literature. 1t leads to
the devil. Don't hang around sa-
looms. Good men are not made
that way. Whenever yousee a man
lying around a saloon the devil is
after him and will get him sooner
or later. Benjamin Franklin would
never have accomplished anything
if he had been guilty of these prac-
tices. Be honest above all things.
Poor boys make the best future
citizens.
"To make a good man you must
be a good boy, SO start right. The
grave-yards are filed with those
who started wrong. The world is
growing better. The teachings of
Christ are beginning to be felt.
Let me impress upon you the only
road to success is by living right
life. Be honest, industrious, fru-
gal. 1t is not necessary to be san
timonious to wear q long face.
Keep laughing. Have good time
as you go through life, but let it be
the rightsort of good time. If we
were all angels the world would
not be fit to live in."
