RAY

Ray, N. D., April 1I.-To The Fo-
rum The regular spring rush is here
again and settlers are rushing in at a
great rate, every day bringing fresh
train load of settlers movables and
stock, and in every direction can be
seen the loaded wagons moving out
to the farms. Many are here pros
pecting for land and hundreds are FL
ing every day. 1t is safe to say that
by midsummer there will not be a
foot of available homestead land in
Williams county.
Farmers are busy this week prepar-
ing the ground and seeding. A much
larger acreage will be seeded this year
than ever before. Those who were
backward about investing heavily in
stock and machinery, and in breaking
up their land, on account OF the old
time cry of drouth are now confident
and are preparing to get their land
under crop, and the indications: are
that this section OF Williams county
will harvest a large crop the coming

Never mind who hit Billy Patterson.
The all absorbing question at The Fo-
rum office just now is who put beer in
Uncle John Searing's water?
1t was a real ungentlenanly thing to
do ana if the. william is ever found out
he will have to do some tall explaining
| or move to Grand Forks. Uncle John
lis not rsvengeful sort of a person, as
leveryone knows but he is certainly not
a bit happy when he thinks Of how
| near he actually came to swallowing a
part of the product of Minnesota
brewery, and there is no telling what
he might do to the practical joker who
took such an unfair advantage OF him.
/ 1t is the custom of few employees
| at The Forum Office to furnish their
own water Uncle John is one of the
few and he has little brown jug which
His filled every day with the purest water
1 to be had in this neck of the woods.
| The other morning Uncle John rails
ed his jug to his lips The odor was
not at all pleasing but Uncle John was
/ Thirsty and was willing to believe that
1.-THE odor came from something else than
/ lthe water. He took mouthful of the
/ Stuff and then gasped. -..s~ -
I Uncle John had not lived in close
iproximity to Moorhead for years with
Tout learning few of the characteris-
itics of the stuff that inebriates. He
i felt almost certain that his water had
1 been. trifed with, but before making
any accusations he wanted to be sure
Then Uncle John made his fatal mis-.
ltake; He carried the jug into an
ljoining room and invited a man who
has been on the water wagon for just
three years to taste the water and de.
Itermine whether or not it really die

the water wagon refused to be led as.

81 Respect for the courts and the
laws of the land are important founda-
tions of this governn1ent-and in fact
of all government The Chicago Chron-
icle discusses this subject very ably in
the following editorial, which recently
appeared in its columns:
The readiness of large percentage,
Of the people to scold at anything that
may get. in the way of the qualification
of their desires ought not probably to
surprise anybody, but the increasing
practice of railing at the courts. the
judicial system especially appointed by
the people to interpret the laws framed
by them for their own government, is
a disquietfng fact. -
" Men know as we'll as they know they
are men that there must be some stand
ard, some rule, for the determination
Of differences and for sustaining the
institutions which they have agreed to
live by. Out of this knowledge has
grown the judicial system the courts
and the methods Of their procedureof
the English speaking people. y
Other peoples of the world have felt
wonder that the people of British stock
have lived and. Aourished so long under
practically voluntary institutions, but
not even we ourselves are as much alive
as we should be to the truth that this
is due more than to any other one thing
to British respect for and confidence
in the courts.
When we are cool we are all ready
enough to admit this in a general way
and therefore it is disquieting to OBJ

Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden and
Norway. 1t seemed to be a long harvest time
from the Arst part of April to the first part
Of September.
In my voyage southwark from Hammer
fest to Trondhiem we had much of the same
experience already mentioned, but we passed
through larger stretches of open ocean and
stopped at larger towns. At TrOmso l spent
several days. We passed in sight of the Lo-
f0ton islands. the great Norwegian fishing
place. In this neighborhood the site of the
mythical maelstrOm of geography was pointed
out to me. We passed by a remarkably
shaped mountain close TO the Arctic circle
called Hestmando. because of it's close re-

Along the route fsh of various kinds, pre-

quantities, baled like hay. We were sub

Narvik, a small but important place, is
one of the most, If not the most. northern
railroad towns of Norway, which signifies also
of the world. Here the passengers change
from the railroad to the steamers on their
way to more northern towns or the North

Hammerfest. near to the North cape. is
the most northern town in the world. 70 de-

one other church building in the town,
small Catholic church.
NTromso, an island town of about 1000 in
habitants, 50 degrees and 88 minutes north
latitude, is a very busy trading place, gen
orally the starting point OF polar expeditions
and the headquarters of the walrus and seal
hunters. 1t has a good harbor full of yes
sells of various nations. It's streets are wide
and clean. It's business streets are crowded
with stores and much business is transacted.
Furs and dressed skins of the white bear and
other animals are plentiful. The dwelling
houses are we'll built and convenient There
is only one saloon in the place and this one is
closed on Sunday and during the late hours
Of the night. The Lutheran church, the
largest building, occupies a very fine lOca-
tioH.
Trondhjem is a city Of AZ, 900 inhabitants,
the largest town at so high a latitude, IS de-
grees. 20 minutes and 81 seconds. 1t was
founded in the year 9s7 by the first Christian
king of Norway. It's period of most impOr-
lance began under his successor, King Olof,
after his death in battle canonized by the
pope as st. Olaf His body was brought back
to Trondhjem and placed In St. Clement
church, where II attracted pilgrims not only
from the Scandinavian countries, but from all
Europe, and made Trondhjem the largest and
richest town in Norway and resulted in the
erection of its famous cathedral. Trondhjem
was the cradle of the kingdom. Here the
kings were crowned. The new king of Nor
way was crowned In this cathedral last sum-
mer a short time before visited Trondhjem.
The streets are wide. we'll paved and clean.
The largest ones have promenades on both
sides between the sidewalks and the paved
center of the street There are some large
and well built public buildings, particularly
the churches. The cathedral, however, is the
chief attraction above all others and is daily
visited by many persons from all countries.
1t was begun many centuries ago as a tiny
chapel over the spot where the national saint,
St. Olof, had lain in his temporary grave.
The cathedral is constructed chiefly of a
bluish-gray soapstone. It is now undergoing
a complete restoration and when finished It
will be one OF the most remarkable oathedraIs
in Europe. No picture have seen Of It does
it justice. 1t is not now Catholic. but
Lutheran. In this cath sdral is the celebrated
marble statue of Christ, by Thorwaldsen. In
the language of another allow me to say a
few words about this church. 1T was built
