ON PERJURY
Charge-Arrests Made in Con
nection With Land Office
Investigations.

The Fargo Foru moi last evening
has the following:
The first result of the recent in.
vestigations conducted by special
agents of the landoffice department be.
came known Saturday when DEPUTY
United States Marshal tSOut arrested
John Van Slyke and George W. Jones
OF Wtlliston and E. E. Hazen of Lans-
ford on charges of perjury.
All of the accuse dare well-to-do
and Will make strenuous defenses in
the federal court.
Jones is proprietor of a Williston
livery stable. Hazen and Van Slyke
are farmers. All three were indicted
at the last session of the federal grand
jury in this city.
"ones, 1t Is charged. fled on forty
acres of land north of Williston, a few
miles, and. without having made the
required improvements, went before
an official of the landoflice and swore
that he had.
Van Slyke and Hazen are charged
with falsely testifying to assist others
In making final proofs on homesteads.
All three defendants were arraign-
ed before United States commission
ers Saturday afternoon and were re-
leased on $1,000 bonds each.
The special agents of the landoffice
under the direction of Mathew w. Nc
Entry OF this city, have been conduct
Ing an exhaustive investigation con-
corning landoffice filings in the north
ern part of the state for some time, but
the arrest of these three men has been
the first result of the investigations
which has been given publicity"

NOT IN THE DRY BELT.

Some objection is being made by
the people of Williston to the govern
ment project of irrigation in that part
OF the state on the grounds that it
will benefit only few thousand acres
of land. and the fact that the country
must have an artificial means of mois-
ture supply will give il the reputation
of being dry country. and conse-
quently retard its development
The people Of that part of the state
need have no fear on the score of driv-
ing immigration away, when the
records of their land Office show that
during the first month OF its existance
three hundred and seventy-nine filings
were made on government lands with
in the district. Not many years ago
the dry belt was located at York and
then at Minot and now it has passed
on towards the setting sun. and SO
far as North Dakota is concerned is
only ghost in memory.
That the country when broken is
better able to conserve the moisture
than when covered by the wild grasses
which have grown upon it for ages
is certainly true, and as the western
part OF the state comes more under
the pillow the rainfall will be better

Over the Hills.

Over the hills and far away
A little boy steals from his mornings
play.
And under the blossoming apple tree
He lies and he dreams Of the things
OF battles fought and Of victories won.
Of wrongs O'erthrown and of great
deeds done
OF the valor that he shall prove some
day.
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away:
Over the hills and far away
It's, oh. for the toll the livelong day!
But 1t mattered not to the soul af1ame
With love for riches and power of
fame!
On, oh. man! while the sun is high
On to the certain joys that lie
Yonder where blazeth the noon of day.
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away
An old man fingers at close of day:
Now that his Journey is almost done
His battles fought and his victories
The old time honesty and truth,
youth.
Home and mother-where are they?
over the hills and far away?
Over the hills and far away!

BREAD CAST UPON THE WATER.

During the last few months Grand
Forks has entertained a number of
conventions of various kinds. the
largest of which were the blacksmiths'
union. the state druggists and the un-
dertakers. Each of these was largely
attended and the doors of the city
were thrown wide open in each in
stance. Not only this. but the advant-
ages of the city as commercial center
was impressed on every one of the
people who attended these gatherings
not by preachment but by their own
observations.
The hospitality of the people of the
city on these occasions has left a de-
cidedly good impression with the peo-
pie who attended them. At a number
of places on the recent tour of the
Commercial club references to the
pleasant times spent in this city were
made, and every one had the kindliest
feelings for Grand Forks and it's peo-

NOTICE TO LAwBREAkERs.

In number of the counties of the
is given the people engaged in dis
pensing intoxicating beverages that
they must close up within a specified
time. These statements indicate a
condition which should not exist Il.
any state in reference to any law. A
violation of any law is a crime, no
matter whether the crime be founded
upon the principle of human rights
or created by legislative enactment
The sale of intoxicants in this state
is violation of law. and the man who
engages in the business has no more
right to be required to stop the same
without being arrested and dealt with
as the law requires than has the man
who engages in burglary, arson or
larceny
The lax methods which are some
times used in reference to the en-
forcement Of this is responsible for
the disrespect shown by the public
for other laws which more vitality
effect the entire community. 1t is
doubtful if the people of the south
have as high regard for the verdicts
of juries and the deliberations of courts
as they had before the custom of
lynching became 80 common among
them. Once that portion of the coun-
try regarded the court, its dignity
and deliberations, second only to re-
ligion. Now they receive only cursory
attention.
Not because it Is the prohibition law
but because it's a law of the state.
which the officers have sworn to en-
force, it should be given the same SER
ious consideration that is given the
enforcement of the law against homi-
eide or other crime.
Unless this is done the breakers of
the other laws will claim the same
immunity that is extended to the viola
tors of the prohibition law when they
are notified to cease the violation. thus
giving them full opportunity to get,
outside the jurisdiction of the courts
before any attempt is made to arrest
them.

In North Dakota.


I stand on a shore where the waves
come in
On the shore of a ruffled sea
And the sweet perfume of the clover's
bloom
Is borne on the winds to me-
But there's never splash of a silver
oar.
And there's never a captains hail,
And never a vessel has foundered there
No matter how fierce the gale
And never a seagull Of tireless wing,
Wheels over the sun-kissed sea;
Nor curlew's Cry, as it scurries by,
Has ever come back TO me.
But the skylark sings DER the gusty
waves
Aye, sinks in the waves from sight,
With never a fear for her loved ones
dear.
AS she nestles them close at night.
And I wade far out from the grassy
shore.
Where the curling whitecaps beat.
And love right well to watch each
Breast deep. in field of wheat.

A COMMERCIAL CLUBS VALUE.

The importance of commercial
club to city in which it is located is
not often realized by the people even
so favored. But in this age of COM
mercial strife and strenuous COMPETE
ton OF localities nothing is so produc-
tive of success to the city in general
as these organizations.
Business men, in the fierce compe-
ti1ion OF this age, are too busy to give
much individual time or attention. and
much less financial consideration. to
projects which concern the entire
community. To illustrate: A hard
ware merchant will not be likely to
quit his business and devote his time
to securing manufacturing plant for
his city which would bring in hun
dred new families to be fed and
clothed by the grocers and dry goods
merchants.
But if all the business men of the
city met together to consider the mat
ter of securing such an enterprise
he would be willing to do his share,
even though he realized that he would
not secure the lions share of the ad-
vantages. He would help because he
would want the others to help in Sc
curing the location of something
which would be of advantage to him,
even if nothing but a selfish motive
prompted him.
And this selfish motive when COM
bined with individual reciprocity is not
the worst thing to build up a town.
When there is a sort of community OF
interests and every man is looking to
his own advantage the man who is
interested in one thing will help get
that in which he is not so directly in
terested in order to secure the one he
wants. and this mutual helping finally
builds prosperous city.
There is only one way in which this
can be secured and that is by means
Of a commercial club where all may
meet in general and plan for the ad-
vantage of all. One of the strongest
evidences of the commercial prosper
ity in this state is the organization in a
number of towns of aggressive and
enthusiastic commercial clubs. They
are the means by which enterprises
are brought to the communities and
the general prosperity of the same is
built up.
The recent trip of the club of this
city proved that one of the important
features of such organizations is the
social side. Men who had been busi-
ness neghbors for years were COM
PEELED to introduce themselves on the
trip. and it is claimed that one of the
big things accomplished by the trip
was that of getting the members of
the party acquainted with each other.
Men who are intimately acquainted
have more interest in the ambitions
of their fellows than they would have
If the acquaintance was merely
speaking one
Cities having commercial organiza-
tons are able to get closer together
in business way and work for the
mutual advantage Of each other better
through the medium of such organ
izations.
Our municipalities are getting the
spirit of progress and each is reaching
out to the others for mutual assist
ance and help.
1t is because of this that a brighter
commercial day is dawning for North
Dakota
