Pluck Out the Beam.

jamestown Alert: A writer IN the
Bismarck Tribune from Washburrl
protests against the Red River valley
papers and prohibitionists trying to
make it appear that the prohibition
law is only fractured in the western
part Of the. state. The columns Of the
Red River valley papers are cited To
show the reports Of fines and arrests
of blind pdggers by the score In one
county, Id the northern part OF the
state, $4,000 is reported to have been
turned into the treasury from liquor
fines and jumped bail ais a result Of
one term OF court. The motto, pluck
out the mote from thine own eye first,
is suggested to our Red River friends
before attempting to magnify the
mote In the eye OF the slope.

Legality of DrusaIs. Permits.

Grand Forks Herald: The T. T..
Williams druggist permit case will be
taken up before Judge Fisk of the dis
trict court some day this week.
Mr.. Williams, engaged in the drug
business at Larimore, was issued
druggists permit by Judge OF Probate
Hassell; and an appeal was taken to
the district court on the grounds that
the judge Of probate had no jurisdfc-
ton in any but cases relating to es-
tates and other purely probate mat
tiers, and is without jurisdiction to ds-
sue a druggists permit. The conten-
ton Of those opposed to the issuance
of a permit to Mr.. Williams ds that
only probate courts Of increased juris-
dictiont are authorized to Issue such
permits. AS the Grand Forks county
court is not OF increased jurisdiction,
it is claimed that legally no such per
NIT can be issued, and it is this uues
tom that Judge Fisk will be required
to answer. 81
It IS practically certain that the SUI
pretne court viii be asked to pass on
whatever decision Judge Fisk may
make. The question is one Of consid-
cradle Importance and if it is held
that the probate courts without in
creased jurisdiction have no right to
issue druggists permits none will be
legal IN more than half a dozen coun-

At the recent meeting Of the drain
age convention at Grand Forks Presi-
dent Hill OF the Great Northern rail-
road offered to defray one-third Of the
expense of a drainage survey OF the
Red River valley, estimated to cost,
in toto about $50, 900. Variations of
the offer have now made 1t appear Ia
some places that the Great Northern
president offered to defray one-third
of the expense of draining the Red
River vailey,:.a project that would
cost UP In the millions. The original
offer was liberal one, without plae-
ing upon Nh. Hill the burden Of a
premise that he did not make, and
that would be beyond the generosity
of any man b,f a Monte Cristo.

1t is difficult to say anything out of
the ordinary style of comment with
regard to the special edition. of a
newspaper, but in the case of an is
sue so complete and valuable as the
special edition of the Fargo Forum

tort should ibe made to express the
appreciation of fellow workers In the
newspaper field. Mr.. Plumley and
his associates in che publication of
THE Forum have certainly made the
best use Of their opportunities in
gathering together the material for
the Forums immigration edition. It
is as well pleasing to note that all
parts of the state have been repre-
scented as extensively as it was pos
sible to do so considering the limita-
tions of space. Especially compact
and valuable is the Alphabet OF
North Dakota which aims to group
alphabetically the information re-

eighteenth century produce was car.

sledges, or-later in theI2century-oD
tumbrels, which were sledges on STUN
bling wheels Of solid wood with wood

These machines were often SO small
that In narrow passage the carter
could lift them bodily, for they held
little more than wheel arrow. They
had wheels foot and a half In diam.

pinned together like a butter firkin
and which quickly wore out and be-
came utterly shap eless, SO that q load
of 600 pounds was enormous for the
dwarfsh animals to drag. Yet even
such vehicles were triulnphs of civili-
nation when they came into use when
the century was young.
Carts are later invention still, and
when one, In 1923, first carried its tiny
load of Goals from East Kilbride to
Cambuslang, crowds OF people, = 1t Is
reported, went to see the wonde rful
machine. They looked with surprise
and returned with establishment, III
many parts OF the lowlands they were
not in ordinary use, even till 176o,
while In the northern districts sledges
or ereels on the backs of women were
chiefly employed to the end OF the CEN

roads was the chief cause OF the re-
luctant adoption OF carts. .ls$ls5

LEE III: 8. IN AN GENT GREECE.

No Remains Whatever OF Grecsnn
81 domestic Architecture.
OF the domestic architecture Of Che
Z Greeks nothing whatever remains,
writes Jean Schoepfer in the Arch
tectural Record Magazine. IN ancient
Greece private houses never had any
architectural interest. "a citizen OF,
Athens or Sparta was too busy with
state affairs to spend much time at
home He wanted to be In the public
place where he could find his friends
and fellow citizens. Moreover, the
climate allowed him olive III the open
air during the greater part OF the year.
J. It Was on the agOra that the citizens
assembled In public meeting. 1T was.
there, from q rostrum, that the orators
harangued the crowd; hence the need
OF good voice and q clear enuncIa:
ton; hence, too, the famous pebbles OF
Demosthenes. 1t was In the open air
that Socrates and the sophists held
their discussions alongside the Ilyssus,
under the plane trees or on q public
place. It was IN the academy gardens
that Plato patronized and in open air
gymnasiums that the youths practiced
their athletic games There was no
raison d'etre for a domestic architec-
ture with such q people and in such d
climate. It is not necessary to have
palatiaI administrative buildings forr

 There have been some new develop ments of the Colorado river which may make some very important changes-in fact they have already. Months ago the farmers of Yuma valley cut through bend in the old river channel, saving nearly mile and half of the distance of the rivers aow ly ditch of few hundred yards. During the recent high water this cut was widened and when the river was over 28 feet one-third of the water went down the old channel. At the present time over 2000 second feet are going down the old river bed, a condition hitherto unknown. As the river falls this will doubtless be lessen- ed and the channel silted up, but the question arises whether the coming floods, part of which will certainly go down the old channel, will not SCOUT it out to depth comparable with the grade of the Imperial canal or Mexican intake.

 THt COLORADO
Manager Redwood of the Develop mCHt Co.,, Explains the DiffiCuI- ties Which Prevent Closing
 the Intake at Present
YUMA, A. T, April l9, 1906.

To THE PEOPLE, IMPERIAL VALLEY:
 That you may be fully informed re- garding the present situation at the rive CT and the prospects for the immediate future, we give the following explana- tion:
 The large wooden gate at the Lower Heading constructed for the purpose of controlling the inflow of the Colorado through the Lower Intake is now com pleted and is amply able to do the work for which it is built as soon as the river falls sufficiently to allow the total flow to pass through the gate for long enough period to construct all earthen dam across the Intake. This will be when the water falls to 20 feet on the Eauge at Yuma, with fair prospect of remaining at or below that height for period of 30 days. The probability of it doing this before the summer rise com mences is so remote thatin your inter- est, as we'll as that of tlle company, we have decided to wait until the summer flood has passed before constructing the diverting dam. We say in your inter est, as well as ours, for the reason that we believe that the attempt now would prove failure, and that another failure at this time would injure you more than any damage that you willsustain through the summer flood. We believe the structures at Sharp's to be entirely safe and when the work of strengthening the main canal levee from the" Dogwood" to the ''Eder" is completed the Valley will be safe from flood damage this sum- |mer, except that portion lying west of New River and along New River in Water company Mo-. l. We can do nothing to relieve the lands now under |water from the New River overflow un- Itil the control at the Colorado is com pleted unless we find that by the use of sbowder we can assist in the cutting back &bf the New River channel. We are ex berimenting with this work and if suc- tessful, may succeed in enlarging this hannel sufficiently to carry the floods without overflow.
 The concrete gate at Hanlon's will be om pleted about May 10th. We are do- Ing everything in our power to protect ou and to complete a system under
 hch your interests will be absolutely afe, and we must ask of you to help us 0y your patience until the controlling orks now being built are completed
 nd made effective. We expect this
 ill be in September.

About Rheumatism

There are few diseases that nhict more torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease for which such varied and useless lot of remedies have been suggested. To say that it can be cured is, therefore, bold state ment to make, but Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which enloys an extensive sale, has met with great success in the treat ment of this disease. One application of Pain Balm will relieve the pam, and hundreds of sufferers have testified to permanent cures by its use. Why suffer when Pain Balm affords such quick re- lief and costs but a trifle? For sale by all dealers.

Swinging Rock of Tandil,

One of the largest of natural won
ders Of South America is the swinging
rock of Tandil (la piedra hovediza) L.
The stone lies about half an hours
walk from the city of Tandil, province
Of Buenos Ayres, Argentine Republic,
upon the highest summit Of little
rocky ridge. When seen from the ra-
vine it has the form of giant pyra-
mid, while from another view it re-
sembles an enormous cone. 1t Is twen-
ty-one feet long and twenty eight feet
high and its weight is judged to be
1880 hundredweight, or 625 tons.
From the distance the stone presents
a peculiar aspect. 1t is so lightly poised
on the rocky slope that it seems as II
one were watching a stone roll down a
small base. But when this swinging
rock is approached one is astonished by
a new wonder. The stone can be set in
motion by merely pushing it with the
hand. Very often the traveller Is spared
even the trouble Of pushing the stone,
as the wind will cause it to swing.
Early in the nineteenth century the
Argentine Republic was ruled by the
Dictator Rosa with unparalleled cruel
ty for about twenty-five years. 10 show
his supreme power the tyrant ordered
that the stone be encircled with ropes
and many horses to be harnessed to
these ropes, but the stone could not be
moved one inch from its resting place.
