RAILROAD NOTES

Since the c., c. & L. has been oper-
ated independent of the c., II. & D.,
work on the line has been pushed
rapidly in order to get the roadbed in
the finest possible condition. Scores
of men have been employed at diff
erent points, and the gravel trains
are very numerous. When the spring
schedule is arranged for passenger
service, it will show very material
lessening of time between all points,
and, as the road is the shortest be-
tween the different cities through
which it passes, the residents living
along the line can look for better SER
vice than heretofore enjoyed.

acres are reserved and 46,47O
acres are unsurveyed. Arough es-
innate from the best data avail
able without a minute exanina-
tion indicates that 1855, TIA
acres in the proposed district had
been entered prior to June 80
last, leaving at that time, rough
y estimated, approximately
922,4O5 acres, and it is fair to
presume that much the larger
portion of the 594, ,154 acres
mentioned above as having been
entered in the Minot district be-
tween June 80 and Dec. 81, 1905,
are included within the 922, ,4O6
acres just mentioned as subject
to entry in the proposed district.
This bill provides that all of
that portion lying north Of the
twelfth standard parallel and
west of the range line between
ranges 80 and SO west Of the
principal meridian be created as
a seperate land district to be
known as the Williston land dis
trict, with a land Office located
xat Williston, and provides for
the appointment of register
and receiver.
The proposed district will be
approximately 81 miles long and
&c miles wide, embracing the
counties of Williams, Alfred Wal
lace ami part Of Ward county,
lying in the Northwest corner Of
the state. This territory is now
a part Of the Minotland district,
embracing approximately about
one-half Of its territory.
This would indicate that by
far the larger portion of these
lands have already been entered,
but the records Of this office show
that a very great majority Of
the entries have been made with
in the last few years, and that,
consequently, final proofs have
not been made under most of
these entries.

more, probably, than the people,

that hundreds Of people who
have, in the past been stopping

It means that Our hotel room,
which is now over crowded, will
have to be increased, more
houses will have to be built and
in fact means much for the up
building Of our city in every
wav. WillistOnh has been coming
to the front rapidly for the past
few years and the securing of the
land office, together with the
Irrigation project, makes the tu-
ture Of this city look very bright
indeed.
This bill was introduced i'll the
senate by Senator Hansbrough,
and through his efforts, worked
through the different grades ui{l
til it passed the Senate Feb. 3.
Since then it has been on the
house side and although Repre-
sentative Gronna has been active
in the matter it was not until
Tuesday that he was able to get
it before the house. The bill has
now passed both houses and
next goes to the President for
his signature.

Need Not Pay Nomination Fee

The North Dakota Primary
election lew provides that a
party wishing to run for a co;In-
ty Office shall pay to the county
Auditor an amount equal to 2
per cent of the annual salary OF
the office for which heis running.
Cases in regard to this nomina-
ton fee were triedin the supreme
courts of both Illinois and Ne
braska and in both cases the
courts held that that portion Of
the primary election was uncon-
stitutional. The courts hold
that the forcing of a candidate
to pay a nomination fee deprives
him Of one of his rights as an
American citizen as they prac-
tically make the pecuniary ability
Of a candidate to pay the fee a
test as to his qualification to be-
come candidate. According to
the ruling of both these courts a
candidate need not pay this fee
and is allowed to run for Office
without regard to his financial
ability to put up a certain
amount of cash.
