B0TTINEAU NEWS MAN WRITES
OF TRIP TO MOUNTAIN HOME

Well this is Monday morning
and l have been here since Friday
afternoon. l promised you a letter
for this weeks paper and if l carry
out my promise will have to be
about it. There is no need of going
into details descriptive of this
country, as our readers had that in
March 1905. So far l haven't had
time to collect my thoughts on any
line, but will give you rambling
account of my journey. have
been kept busy shaking hands with
and talking to old Bottineau county
friends and feasting on corn, toma-
toes, watermelon, cantaloupe,
peaches, apples, pears, ct al. and
under conditions of that sort one
can't do much writing for news
papers. left home week age to-
day, spent Tuesday at Minneapo-
lis and St. Paul, where l saw the
biggest crowd that l ever beheld.
People just came in mobs to see
the big state fair, and trains look
ed like swarming bee hives, filled
as they were from engine to rear
pullman, with men, women, children
and crying babies. On Wednes-
day noon l reached Omaha and after
few hours ! left over the Union
Pacific for the west. And such a
train-fourteen loaded cars. Where
are all the people going to, any
way, this busy time of year? The
trains since leaving home have been
late and crowded. Out through the
deserts of Wyoming and Utah and
Idaho they seem filled with the
same restless crowds as back in
the states. -
Mr.. Brother and l were up to
Boise and coming back the train
east was filled too-a train of thir-
teen cars-fil1ed so that we had to
go back to a sleeper to find a seat.
Besides, all trains are anywhere
from one to five hours late and the
depots are filled with waiting, anx-
ious crowds. Where are they all
going to? We took the midnight
train to Boise and even the vesti-
bules of some of the coaches had
two or more men in them, crouched
down and trying to sleep There

is no pleasure travelling under such
conditions. Mr.. and Mrs. Brother
insisted on my going from the train
to their pleasant home to stay, SO
that l have been fortunate. They
are well and happy. Mr.. Brothen
is cultivating his Desert claim and
geti ing ready to prove up. He has
the ditch right above him and is
close to town.
His land will be worth close
to 500 an acre when he gets the
title. No better farm than his,
but nearer to wn, sold just the
other day for 500 an acre and it
wasn't, under the ditch, that is
it had no water right. What makes
that land without water, it is like
an ash heap and wont grow any
thing but sage brush, worth so much
we can't see. These are facts as
get them from men whom many
of your readers have known for sew
eral years. There is nc boom on
either. But when the products of
this land when irrigated are seen
there is little wonder.
And as to health. If a man can
be healthy where the water is good
and where the sun shines 90 days
out of the 10O-though sometimes
40 in the Shade-wherc the air is
pure and where he can eat enough
to make even himself wonder, why
he can't be healthy anywhere and
ought to get off the earth.
Elisha Turner has possibly
made as big beginning agricul-
turally as any of the old friends
from Bottineau. 1t takes time to
get onto the kinks of irrigation. He
is more than satisfied and says 10
acres is big enough for him. The
North Dakota farmer has swelled
up ideas after farming his 800 or
$40 acre farm, but he gets that
knocked out of him if he makes a
success here. MIR. Turner has a fine
looking place and has worked hard.
He has cut two crops of alfalfa
and will soon cut the third.
took supper at his place Saturday.
And the way l crowded the fruits
of the land into me was a caution.
But they were good though, Mr..
Turner sat beside me and ate one
more cantaloupe than l did Misses
Mary and Tena Lyon were at the
table too and such fun as they had
about my appetite. Well, / must
close for this time. Expect to be

right and the really prize specimens
of inestimable value to the state
would be rejected as has been done
on matter of photography.
The matter is of no great impor-
lance save as illustrating the sec
tionalism that seems to prevail in
the south whereby even on the &C
casion of the recent great national
gathering the managers knew only
the sagebrush country me and
my wife my son John and his wife,
we four and no more.' North Idaho
observes with interest the various
developments and enterprises of the
south, but has every reason to be-
lieve that the south knows and
cares little or nothing about the
northern counties. One reason for
believing so is because in all the
literature issued there nominally
concerning the state as a whole
there is apparently total ignorance
of the fact that the three northern
counties produce IS, 600, 600 bushels
of grain, train loads of fat cattle,
the most exquisite varieties of for
eign grapes and other delicate
fruits correspondingly, that it is
one of the greatest numbering re-
gions in the world and furnishes
Europe with its fine finishing
timber, and a variety of facts
like that.
When a booklet is issued on Idaho
from the southern part of the state
the theme, the burden and the mo-
tive is Government Irrigation, -
with townsites as an incident and
arid sagebrush as the hope, the
destiny the ultima thule of Idaho
and of those who might be looking
to the state for new homes and op-
portunities. The subject and the
periodical occasions for it are not
agreeable-no more so than the fact
that north Idaho is called upon for
it's proportionate share of the ex-
penses in booming government irri-
cation for south Idaho. How much
has south Idaho ever given, or been
asked to give, to assist in procur-
ing for this state an open waterway
from its interior to the deep sea
ships side? North Idaho cannot
even make use of is unnavigable
streams for industrial purposes be-
cause south Idaho, having the
greater vote, prefers to defeat legis-
lation looking to the improvement
of these streams for logging and
milling uses.
We have another fragrant in
stance in the fact that the closing
up of north Idaho's forest territory
is due to south Idaho politicians
and their ignorance or indifference
as to any state interest outside of

PHILADELPHIA, Sept For
geries for more than quarter of

suicide president of the defunct Real
Estate Trust company, hnve been dis
covered by Receiver Earle. The latter
made this statement late tonight, add

The president had taken copies of
the signatures Of a number of business
men while some of their checks or ne
gotiable securities passed through his
hands, but In every case he avoided
the use OF the name of a Real Estate
Trust company depositor.
"When pinchcd for money TO meet

Mr.. Earle said, Gas last resort Hin

DEADLOCK NOW IN
STREET CAR STRIKE
Members of Frisco Unions In
sist Upon Closed Shop, Which
Is Denied.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. AS re-
suit of today's developments there is
in prospect d deadlock between the
United railroad and its employees, who
decided last Wednesday evening to sub
nit the question of hours and wages to
arbitration. An unexpected eomplica-
tion has arisen tonight through a de-
of the closed shop. which President
Patrick Calhoun has refused to con
cede. In his reply to the demand for
the closed shop, Mr., Calhoun says;
''1n reply to the information you
have now given me that certain mem
bers of your union decline to work
with men now in my employ, cannot
make too clear my unalterable position
that ! will not discharge any man who
faithfully and efficiently performs his
service to make place for some one
else; and I certainly Will not do this
at the dictatioD of any man. Under
my instructions. however, the fact that
no one employed during the strike will
be discharged will not in any way
affect the hours, wages or class of labor
that the former men returning TO work
would have, nor will they In anv way
be Disseminated against after their
return.
i understand that there are only
about twenty men affected by the ques-
tion you have now brought un and /
trust you will find some way to avoid
further differences between us

questions submitted to arbitration seem
to have been forgotten. President

union, with representatives of the af-
fliated organization, and w. p. Nc

A $6,OOO.OOO POSTOFfICE
THAT'S NO POSTOFFICE AT ALL

WASHINGTON, April 5.-There
is a movement on foot to secure a
new style of architecture as ap-
piled to public buildings, and par
ticularly postoffices. Chairman
Bartholdt, of the house committee
on buildings and grounds, is con-
WINGED that there has been too
much attention in the past to ex-
ternal beauty, and too little thought
expended on the purpose for which
the structure was to be used.
The new Chicago postoffice is
cited as the best example of what
is meant. This was designed by
Henry Ives Cobb, who drew spec
ial salary of $4,000 a year for six
years to superintend it.
When the building was finally
completed it was found to be abso-
lutely ungtted for postoffice pur-

Postal congress opened here today
with every country belonging to

AMATEURS IN
R0PED ARENA

The national amateur boxing
tournament which opened in San
Francisco in Mechanics pavilion
last night was a great success.
More than 5000 people were in
attendance. The tournament will
continue tonight and Friday.
There were 81 three-round goes
last night. T. Riorden, of the Olym-
pic club won the only knockout. He
beat William Heller, of Chicago,
in the second round putting the
easterner out with hard right.
Out of the 62 amateurs who box
ed last night 81 of them dropped
out of the race. The remaining 81
men will work down to the semi
finals and then to the finals.

poses. 1t lacked all the things that
postoffice should have-light, air,
room and place for wagons to
come and get and deliver the mails.
Apparently the only idea Of the
man who designed the structure
was how it would look, on paper,
from the outside. 1t was given a
lovely dome, some ornate arches
and pillars, and the specifications
called for the expenditure of So
100000.
The new building is found much
inferior for all practical purposes,
to the $4,000 temporary structure
on the lake front, where the mail
business was done while the new
office was being constructed.
