INFERNO is PAST.

Naples, April 13.-7:55 a. Nall
news received here this morning is
encouraging. For the first time since
Tuesday the sun is shining all over
Naples and although above the city
the usual gray cloud is observable.
the fall of ashes has almost entirely
ceased. Ashes. however. continued to
fall throughout the night, adding sew
eral inches to the accumulation in the
streets. Nearly six thousand people
are employed piling ashes in the mid
die OF narrow streets which makes
the passage of vehicles exceedingly
difficult and adds to the discomfort of
pedestrians.
Several men, apparently, have braved
the terrors of the wild waste of lava
about the royal observatory of Mount
Vesuvius. One of them returned here
this morning and gave an account of
a most interesting conversation which
ne had with Prof. Mattucci, director
OF the observatory, who was in a very
hopeful mood when his visitor left
him. The professor said: Every little
is known of the volcanic forces. No
one can safely predict what is going
to happen. But I think I can with
some confidence express hope, based
on my experience here. that the ex-
plosive period of eruption has passed.
1t is impossible to make a positive
statement to this effect but the proba-
bilities point to the quieting down of
the volcano. This, however, does not
mean that it's activity will entirely
cease" u. s1&

plan was tried a few years ago,
and the only obstacle met was
the tact that the population Of
the city as the official reports
gave it, was less than that Of the
cities..fxed by Mr.. Carnegie's
rule relative to the size of the
cities which he would assist.
That, however, was before the
additions were included in the
city limits. Now the city is
large enough to receive attention
from the distinguished saironmas-
ter, and if the matter were pro-
perly presented, there is no ques-
tion but that the present library
could be provided with a suitable
building that would not only be
an advantage to the association
which has so long worked in it's
behalf, but would be a credit to
the city in an ornamental way
as well.

OUR REAL ESTATE OPPOR-
TUNITIES,

The statement is often made
that the tide of immigration is
passing Ramsey county; that the
cheap lands in the western part
of the state have become so at
tractive to the prospective settler
that he is passing by the older
sections in order to secure the
low priced lands on the frontier.
1t is true that the greater num-
Der of new settlers are going
further west and even into the
Canadian country. But what of
it? The pioneer days in Ramsey
county are things of the past.
The country is no longer new.
The claim shack is almost as
much of a curiosity to the people
OF this county as it would be to
those of Iowa.
The era of cheap lands, as the
Devils Lake inter-ocean and Devils Lake free press. (Devils Lake, Ramsey County, N.D.) 1905-1909, 1906-04-20

the activities Of life, are ooffffering
the people who are seeking
homes in the northwest, the OPP
portunities of acquiring land,
not on the frontier with all Of
the burdens and privations that
the frontier means, but in a
country having every conven-
fence of the older states, at
prices that will not only permit
them to double and thribe, but
which will yield immense re-
turns as incomes on the invest
ment.
Farms under cultivation in
this county, with fine farm resi-
dences and magnificent barns.
can be purchased for from
twenty-five to thirty dollars an
acre. 1t takes money to handle
these farms, it is true, and the
man of small capital will find
but few openings.
However, to the man with
money enough to purchase and
handle them, they offer the
greatest opportunities for gets
ting rich from the soil to be
found in the world.
For several years the average
yield per acre in this county has
been at least twenty dollars.
Some of the crops have made
even better return than that, but
that amount is thoroughly con-
sentative. Allowing the expenses
at one half the cost ofzthe crop,
the net profit to the,farmer is
ten dollars per acre. Now if he
can purchase this land at three
times what it will yield in one
year, it does not require an ex-
pert to determine that the in
vestment is a good one. A net
profit of thirty three per cent is
not realized even in speculative
Wall street.
AS a matter of fact, ten per
cent net on the value of land is
considered a good income in the
older states. This rule applied
to Ramsey county lands would
permit the incr ease of the pres
emit price to three times what it
isanow before the income rate
would be reduced to the normal
of land investment.
These are the opportunities
offered to the investor in lands
in this county today. For the
man with money they are far
more attractive than are those
of the newer sections with their
cheap lands and inevitable draw
backs.

Neither is the witness on the

same matter.

phrase is usually understood 50
tar as this county is concerned,
is thing of the past. But it
must not be supposed for a
moment that the opportunity for
investments that will make sew
eral times as much interest as
government bonds be just as safe
and in one particular far better
in that it will increase in value
until the purchasing price is at
least doubled, has also past. It
is just now beginning to dawn.
An analysis of the present con-
ditions in this county will prove
the truth of this assertion. With
the exception Of the northeastern
corner OF the county the greater
portion of it has been settled for
almost a quarter of a century.
1t is no reflection upon these
settlers to say that the larger
portion of them came to the
country poor. They are not so
now, however. The land laws at
that time permitted the settler to
acquire a considerable tract of
land-much more than at pres
ent. The country was new and
the proper methods of cultiva-
ton had not been determined.
The people had not yet learned
how to conserve the small
amount of rainfall so as to make
it produce an abundant crop.
Failure followed the expert
ments of the first settlers--for
the attempts at farming could
be termed nothing better than
experiments. Many of the set
tiers lost heart and disposed of
their property at whatever price
they could obtain, which was far
from a good one.
From the two causes indicated,
the people who remained in the
acquired vast holdings,
and with the changed conditions
and the proof of the unparalleled
greatness of the country, these
holdings have increased in actu-
al value until what a few years
ago went begging for buyers now
represents a small fortune.
Besides the increase in the
land values, the lands themselves
during the last fifteen years,
with a few natural exceptions,
have yielded immense profits to
the farmers. Some of these
years have practically added a
competence to the bank account
of the owners.
These things meant work,
no Hever. The life on the farm
was not one for the society dude.
Now these people having ac-
quired a sufficient amount of the
worlds wealth to retire from

Pauls Valley yesterday morning
thirteen cases were disposed of in
thirty minutes. Seven of the thir-
teen were sentenced to a year and
a day. one to three years, three TO
the reform school and others we're
given lighter sentences.
Among those who entered pleas
OF guilty was man from Ardmore
whom Judge Plieffer placed under
a peace bond as well as an appear
ance bond The prisoner could
not give the peace bond and he en-
tered a plea of guilty rather than
remain in jail and risk having to
serve a sentence also. This is a
method Judge P6effer has adopted
to induce whiskey peddl-rs to quit
selling their wares in the southern

PLENTY OF COTTON IN SIGHT
Cotton Men Take a Bright View or the
OutIOOk-Receipt at Chickasha.

Last night the number of bales
of cottun received at Chickasha
was about 1850. This about one
third of the receipts for the entire
season last year. Considering the
fact that the crop was from two to
three weeks late this year, it is
considered very good showing.
Cotton has been slow in opening
but there is great quantity ready
to be picked now and is being
picked as rapidly as hands can be
obtained. The great trouble is
shortage in pickers.
Local cotton men express the
opinion that the crop in this viciti-
ty will be much larger than last
year, some evening going as far as
to say that it will be twice as large.
