Reports reach here that the
BIG dam six miles south of ST.
John is in great danger of
breaking. At the present time
the water is fifty feet deep at
the dam and is backed up seven
miles. The chain that is used
to lift the flood gate has been
broken, and they are unable to
let the water out. A divers
suit has been ordered, and if
that arrives in time, they will
have little trouble in repairing
the chain and lifting the gate.
Should this dam break it would
be a great loss to the citizens of
Apache County, and would un-
doubtedly damage st. Johns
to some extent. It would also
wash away the Meadow, Udall
and Woodruff dams. Holbrook
would also be in danger of hav-
ing a portion of the town taken
away, as the river bank at that
point is reported as being in a
poor condition to Withst6 nd a
great amount of water. At the
present time the river in run
ming bank full.

THE BASKET
BALL GAME
And Dance Tuesday Night in the
Opera House Was a
Grand Affair.

Nearly every one in town was
at the Opera House to see girls
play basket ball and take part
in the dance that was scheduled
to take place after the game.
At $50 sharp the contesting
teams marched to their places
and gave their yell, and then
the, game was on in earnest.
The game lasted forty minutes
and during that time excellent
playing was being displayed be-
fore the critical eyes of the au
dience. Very few mistakes or
bad plays were made. Up IN
til the latter part of the game
it was hard to tell whether the
Reds or Yellows would be the
viCtors, but when the time was
nearly up, the Yellows made a
tally, which made four tallies
for that side. The Reds had
only made three, so the game
ended with a score of 4 to 3, in
favor of the side that wore the
yellow ribbons.
The dancing then commenced
and lasted until the early hours
of Wednesday morning. L. T..
Malta and Mrs. D. A. Lenhart
furnished the music.
The basket ball girls are to
highly commended for the man
ner in which the evenings enter
tainment was arranged. Every
one wishes that the affair be re-
peated.

Can 0ut-SelI Mail Order Houses.

An Oelwein hardware firm has
solved the question of competing with
the city mail order houses in this way,
told by the Register: "They learned
where department store obtained
their ranges and ordered the same
brand from the same factory, the same
range that the department store adver-
tises to sell in Chicago for $25. 70, F..
0. b. and G. 0. ID. is sold by the
local dealer for $24.98 G. o. ID. de-
livered and set up. Besides the n
cents the purchaser saves the freight,
drayage, blacking, joint of pipe and
labor of setting up, amounting to
over 81 or about So to the good. The
firm is selling ranges by the score. :"
The local dealer can unquestionably
undersell the mail order house, when
freight. quality of goods. etc., etc. : is
considered. But to do so they must
be content with quick sales and small
profits. And they must furthermore
let the people. the buying public,
know of the bargains thew can offer,
and any live merchant will tell you
that newspaper advertising is the most
effective means of doing this.

Hunters License.

Geo. Lincoln, state fish and game
warden, is advocating law similar
to that in existence in other states
which will compel every individual
who goes out with "a gun to have a
license or be subject to arrest. Such
license will cost 81 and will be good
for one year from date of issue.
Such law, it is believed, will create
a fund of something like $50. 900 per
year, which can be devoted TO the
protection of game and fish. We
presume this fund would be used
largely in paying game wardens to
look after the game and see that the
law was enforced, and to meet the
expenses of that Office. Surely he who
dances must pay the fiddler. Elk.

Bollman herd which was recently
traded by him to John w. Randolph,
of Fargo, N. OAK, for a section of
land near that place. Bidders were
present from all parts of Iowa and
Minnesota, aud few from other

average of $50 per head. $3.50 was
the highest price paid for one animal,
a 2-year- old heifer. -Cresco Times.

be sold or bonded for, to exceed,
$500, 900 today. It is also a safe
prediction that these lands will
double in value in the next ten
years. Land values have just
commenced to improve in the
western part of the state and it
would not seem to be in the in
terest of the people to sell state
lands today except in case of ne
cessity. Our present capitol
buildings are ample and will be
so until these lands would have a
value that would enable the state
to erect buildings that the people
would be proud of. These vari-
Gus endowments of land to the
state is the best and most profit
able investment the people have,
they should be conserved and
sold only in case of necessity.
A new capitol building is not, in
my judgement, a present ncces
sity. I can see no favorable dis
tinction between voting away the
peoples land and voting away
the peoples money"

In a recent issue of the Coop
erstown Courier Senator Crane
writes the following in re-
gard to the building of the new
addition to the state capitol:
Since the recent issue of the
Courier, with an editorial on the
Capitol Commission great many
people have asked me what is
the fuss about anyway" I am
satisfied that very few people
know that the last legislature,
authorized the construction of a
new capitol building at Bismarck,
at a cost of 5000, 900. There is
not a single member of that
legislature who can give a rea-
son for such a law that would
appeal to the average citizen as a
good one. The people had not
petitioned for such an appro-
priation! The press of the state
had voiced no public opinion that
the state should have a new
capitol building! The fact is
there was not only no demand for
such a building, but there was
absolutely no need of one. A
new wing to the capital has just
been completed at a cost of S1CO,
600, which offered the legislature
and every state official handsome
and commodious quarters. There
is room enough in the building as
it now stands to accommodate
the state for the next ten or
fifteen years. The state has no
more use for a new capitol build
ing than Griggs County has for a
new court house. The only ex-
cuse I heard offered by those
who voted for the bill was that it
did not tax the people, only used
lands set aside for that purpose.
When we become a state, con-
gress gave us 100000 acres of
the then public land for various
district purposes, most of it for
schools and colleges. Fifty
Thousand acres of this land was
given for public building at the
capitolof the state It is out of
this $4,000 acres of land that the
new capitol is to be built. The
capitol commission so much
criticized, was created to expend
this money and construct the
building. Some of this land has
already been bonded, for capitol
purpose. 1t is nearly all in the
western part of the state. It is
safe to say that this land cannot
