ers Practically Admit That They
are Defeated.

A rousing Republican rally was
held at Mohall Saturday night
when number OF Ward county
politicians, in favor of downing
the state gang, enlightened a
large number of the voters in
that vicinity. Judge Palda from
Minot made a most effective
speech in behalf of good govern
ment and referred to the time
when an attempt was made to
bride him when he was on the
bench, by promising him the re-
nomination in case he decided a
case the henchmen for the ma
chine wished him to. Palda fatty
refused to do this, as he always
wished to be honest IN his po]iti-
cal as we'll as his private career.
and as q result he was lead to
the slaughter by Hansbrough
and his lieutenants. Palda re.
ferred to several Minot men who
acted as agents for the machine
in the attempt. His words fell
on the ears of the interested
audience creating the utmost
CONSERVATION. Mohall will vote
solidly against the state machine,
you may bet your lucky stars.
"Honest Jim" Johnson, our
next county Judge was present
and talked on county politics..
His words went straight home.
Geo. j. Smith, candidate for
the legislature, spoke q short
time on the primary election.
As he stunned the state of Wis
consin with Senator Lafollette,
he is we'll fitted to speak on this
subject. Senator Steele was
chairman of the meeting, and
was very enthusiastic.
A. V. Swanson, Francis Murphy,
J. A. Delaney and Mr.. Smith
spoke al an enthusiastic rally
at Sherwood Friday night.
Everywhere the advocates of
good government are meeting
with great encouragement, and
the few henchmen for the state
machine who abide in Imperial

the defeat OF Henry Clay Hans
brough and the rest of his fol-
lowers.

EXPLORER RIDES A TURTLE.
De ROugemont Shows q London An.
dlence How Easy Il IL,

Six years ago NJ. de Rougemont ap-
peared before the geographical section
of the British association at Clifton
and described with much wealth of
detail his remarkable adventures in
the heart of the Australian continent.
He included among them some striking
"reminiscences of the pearling industry
In Australasia, and added that, having
been wrecked, he occupied some part
Of his leisure by riding turtles in the
lagoon of his desert island. Yesterday
after the lapse of many years, he APP
peared-in a striped bathing blank
ct aud a bathing suit-before British
audience at the Hippodrome to demon
statre the truth of this part of his
narrative.
There Is no ground for supposing
that 1t is the same turtle which shared
NJ. de Rougemonts solitude in Austral-
asia. or that is Is a confederate In any
way. Yesterday 1t lay placidly by the
Hippodrome lagoon while NJ. de Rou-
gemOnt lectured once again on his en-
PERTAINING experiences, and 1t gave no
sign of intelligence while he described
the whole art Of turtle riding. Sud-
denly the explorer flung of his blank
ct. and Selling the turtle unceremoni-
ously by the scruff of its neck and the
back of its she'll hoisted it into the
water. The turtle sank. but rose
again. NJ. de Rougemont went in af-
ter it and in moment was on its
back. Down it went again and then
once more rose. This time the rider
grasped it firmly. crying, TIA 'Ra
RAJ" and slapped it with some sever
ity. 1t was an exciting and amusing
entertainment from the spectators
point of view and M. de Rougemont al
SO appeared to enjoy it very much.
Of the turtles enjoyment we have
some doubt. but its general attitude
was that of passive resister At any
rate. NJ. de Rougemont did ride it

no WORD FROM sBLACKIE.r
The jamestown Alert Says He Never
Worked There.

Will Noel, who employed the man
called "Blackie," at the roundhouse res
taurant, states that he is confident that
the murderer of Officer Personals is
not the man whoworked here, says the
Jamestown Alert. The Bismarck po-
lice have theory that man killed in
the 500 yards the 10Th of August was
"Blackie." The body was exhumed for
Identification at the request of B. P.
Ranney, who came from Columbus,
Ohio, to see If the victim of the acct
dent Gas brother, as certain articles
on his clothing gave the clue to his
identity as w. S. Ranney, who, in
company with man named Blackley
and Frank Schwan left Columbus for
Seattle and were at Pierre and at
jamestown. The man killed is de-
scribed by Ranney of Columbus to
resemble Blackie very much and Ran
ney was expected to go to Valley City
to see If the man Connors, held for
robbery at Sanborn, was the lost bro
Their. The Valley City authorities have
kilograms indicating that Blackie has
been located in about dozen differ
ent places. AS the time goes by and
the man is not caught the chances of
his escape are better each day and
many doubt If he is caught owing to
the darkness in which he escaped and
the lack of means of identifying him
If caught.

THE skIDOO SPELLING.

Philadelphia Item: The new brand
Of Phonetic Spelling launched by An
drew Carnegie, and piloted into Of
fetal documents by President Roose-
welt, is still being discussed by the
public press. This style, which may
be designated as short spelling, does
not seem to be sweeping into popular
ity.
True, it has been adopted by some
big store advertisers. But in this in
stance there may be said to be met
hod in the madness.
The new jerkwater style makes peo-
pie scan the advertisements the more
closely.
In the conglommeration of bargains
they look for the undressed words.
Here is the point. Here is where
the profit in this instance comes in.
Every few days we read of some
would-be savant joining the corps of
those seeking to force short-stop eng
lish into use.
Yes, the opportunity of getting ones
name into the newspapers is bauble
too tempting to resist.
But even government sanction gives
no promise that chopping-block Eng
llSn Will make any real headWay.
The effort to force it upon the pub
lie has brought the stand-patter into
the field.
This new stand-patter stands pat
for the English of his schoolboy days.
Those who earn their living by their
pens are not disposed to surrender a
style instilled into them by many
years of practice.
The stand-patter does not want to
go over his think-tank with an eraser.
He doesn't want to be forced to for
get something extremely hard to
eradicate.
He doesn't want to be compelled to
imbibe new course of spelling.
Stand pat is the cry that is coming
from thousands of educated Ameri-
cans, and united they can force a
skidoo upon the attempt to emascu-
late the spelling of our fathers.

Greater Boston.

Among the cities, if we except New
York, know of none that clearly
outranks Boston. In valuation 1t stands
almost at the top, in population nomin-
ally fifth; but the political Boston is
surrounded by dozens of cities and
towns which to all intents and pur-
poses are as much parts of the real
Boston as the residential districts of
st. Louis and Chicago are parts of
those cities. Within fifty miles of the
State House there are twenty-five cit
les containing more than $4,000 in
habitants each. Chicago has only
three such tributary suburbs and ST.
Louis only one. This great OUTLYING
population, some of it separated from
the city proper merely by bridge
or an artificial boundary line. must be
reckoned in as part Of the capital. 1t
contributes to its prosperity, for with
out 1t, Boston would not be the great
market 1t is, selling $1,000, 900 900
worth OF goods In year, or 20 per
cent of all the goods sold in Massa-
chusetts. But. II the suburban pop
ulation stimulates business, 1t adds
nothing directly to the revenues of the
city. On the contrary, 1t includes MANY
persons who should pay taxes in the
city, but do not, preferring the rigor-
GUS financial climate of places like
Wellesley and Nahant; while, on the
other hand, municipal expenditures are
greatly increased by the propinquity
OF this surrounding population. For
example, about three in eight of all
the persons arrested in Boston last
year were non-residents. Clearly the
problesm of government with us are
complicated by conditions which do
not exist In Chicago and st. Louis

of a very desirable character. This
is one object of soil survey-to let
people who have never seen a country
know what the soil is and what can
reasonably be expected to grow and
do we'll.
For the farmer already located,
great many suggestions can be made
as to other crops which will do we'll
and be found profitable and in this
manner create variety in the agri-
culture which will aid materially in
always maintaining the large yields
of crops that have been secured in
the past.
To come more closely to Ransom
county, there have been some sixteen
types recognized and mapped and the
adaptation studied in regard to wheat,
corn. sugar beets, alfalfa; timothy
and fruit crops. These and other sug-
gestions have been incorporated into
report accompanying map show
ing the soil types, which will be pub
lished and distributed. Such a report
should be very valuable as there is
much soil in the county on which al
falfa should grow, also timothy, sugar
Deets and other crops to which not
much attention is paid at present
1t may be said that the possibilities
of this country except for wheat and
small grains are hardly realized at
present, but with the steady increase
in population of the United States-a
part of which must be cared for in
North Dakota-as time goes on a much
greater development is certain, and
the enthusiasm of those living here
igor the country is not to be WON
dered at.
The thanks of those interested are
due to the states congressional dele
cation and the local real estate men
who have made such work possible in
Ransom county. The map and report
will be ready for distribution about
next July. Those who wish will be
able to obtain a copy from their con-
gressmen Or senators or from Prof.

SOIL SURVEY.
Very Interesting Article from the
Expert in Charge of the Work.

. o o 8 o o o o o g o o . . o % . o
There has just been completed soil
survey of Ransom county by c. w.
Ely of the bureau of soil. division
of the United States department of
agriculture, assisted by j. T. Weaver,
geological and economic survey, the
latter's expenses and salary being
paid by local real estate dealers.
The object of this work which is be-
ing carried on in the various states is
to study the soils all over the country,
their crop production and adaptability
to various kinds of crops.
The work is carried out in this man
ner: A party being located at some
convenient place will drive out along
the roads and with an auger from
three to six feet long bore down into
the soil and subsoil, in this way OBJ
tanning exact information as to the
character, depth and color of both
soil and subsoil. When a number or
borings have been made it is possible
to divide the various kinds of soil
into definite types which may differ
materially in crop value and adapta-
ton. These various types are shown
in color on scale of one inch to the
mile, marking variations as small as
ten acres. The basis for CHASING a
soil type is generally speaking it's
texture-that is. the amount of sand
and clay. 1t is general rule that a
sandy soil is adopted to a different
class of crops than heavy clay soil;
yet other things may have influence,
such organic matter which gives
the dark color so characteristic of
Ransom county soils, depth to water,
topography and drainage conditions.
All these things are considered in
constructing the soil map and when
1T is completed it can be shown that
a certain soil on certain section or
quarter of a section will grow we'll
a certain crop and in an average year
will produce something like an average
yield. AS the work is carried on, many
questions are asked of representative
farmers as to yield of crops, cost of
labor, etc., so really great amount
of definite information has been COL
lected regarding soils and agricultural
conditions which is very valuable to
anyone interested in farming or con-
sidering the question of moving into
another country. The latter phase
is a very valuable one in this state
and country. With a country four or
six times its present population 1t
would seem only necessary to let
the people in other states of high
priced land know what there is here to
induce large amount of immigration
