new Law
Congress Passed . 8trigsnt NaturaIizatio
Law At the last Session.

congress PoSSoo 8triGont Naturalization
Law At the last Session.
Congress passed naturalization law
which will go far towards stopping the
many frauds which have been brought
to light in recent years. Under this
new law the bureau of immigration at
the national capital has been made the
bureau of immigration and naturaliza
tion. and it is made its duty to keep a
registry of the arriving aliens with
name, age, occupation, personal de-
scription, last place of future residence
in the United States. Each alien is
given certified copy of the registry
and he is required to present this
when he petitions for citizenship.
The latter declaration must bear date
at least two years after the register of
arrival and the citizenship may not be
granted until five years have elapsed
since the registry. The petition must
be signed in the handwriting Of the
applicant and it must declare among
other things that the petitioner is not
a member of any society opposed to or
ganized government, polygamist or
q believer in polygamy. This is in
addition to the usual remuneration of
allegiance to other powers. The petit
tion must be posted in conspicuous
place in the Office of the clerk of court
for ninety days before action is taken
upon it and then it can only be passed
upon in open court on stated days.
Provision is made for examination and
cross examination of witnesses and
for the annulment of citizenship OBJ
tanned by false statements. Here
after no person can be admitted to
citizenship who cannot speak the Eng
lish language.

Tom Marshall is representative
worth while. He does not build a few
public buildings and consider himself
a benefactor to the entire state. His
alcohol bill will be of inestimable
value to, the state. It is the most far
reaching and benecfiial bit of legisla-
tion ever championed by a member of
the North Dakota delegation. Now
he is corresponding with wood alcohol
manufacturers, and believes he has
interested them in the lingite industry
of his state. These manufacturers
have by prodcut somewhat like tar

win this game as it was the last one of
the season. but fate and i'll luck COM

much for the local boys. Hunt

second inning "Home Run Murphy
made the first score. making a two
base hit he was advanced to third by
Wynkoop's sacrifice, Antler's pitcher
made balk, and Murphy walked in.
Jarvie, the captain for the visitors
made roar but he finally decided to
play the rest Of the game if a new
umpire was chosen, SO Larson was re-
placed by Owen Thomas. This seemed
to put Antler on their metle and they

Wet blanket
Ground was too Wet for
the Barbecue and Races
Yesterd ay.

The celebration and barbecue plan
ned by the Catholics Of Bottineau and
vicinity vas marred somewhat by the
heavy rain the night before. Horse
racing and the barbecue part of the
program was necessarily omitted.
The excursion train from Rugby was
annulled and therefore the crowd was
not very large.
Antler and Bottineau played ball in
the afternoon, Antler winning. tu 2
The ladies served supper down town
in the evening and had a good crowd.
The closing event OF the day was
the concert and lecture at the Opera
House. The program was opened by
a chorus o. ..35 voices under the direc-
tion of Nine. Daix- Despret of Willow
City, and it is unnecessary to state
that it was exceptionally we'll
renderd.
Nine. Daix- -Despret sang "The
Holy City" and received liberal ap-
plause.
Mrs. R. B. Kilbourn was next on
the program and sang very nice
song. She was accorded an ovation
and responded with an encore.
Mrs. o. B. Lundy also sang a solo
which was we'll received and created a
large amount IF applause. She also
responded with an encore.
Father Cleary was introduced by J.
J. Weeks and held the large audience
interested for nearly two hours. His
subject was the "Passion Play of Obe-
rammergau a subject with whicn
he is thoroughly familiar, having seen
the play in 1890. and again in 1900.
Time forbids further comment about
the lecture. but suffice it to say that
with such a man as Father Cleary
talking it was of the very best.
The attendance at the Opera
House was very large-the s. R. O.
sign being hung out. - ~ =.

BASE BALL
tBottnsau's Ball Team Won Ten and Lost
Nine during the Season.

t6ottinsau's Ball Team Won Ten and LOST
Nine during the Season.
Bottineau g base ball team disbanded
Thursday night. They have played
nineteen games this season winning
ten and losing nine The first game Of
the season was played with Overly.
Wynkoop, pitched for Bottineau. He
came formerly from Kansas and
signed with this team after the Overly
game. He showed up we'll in the first
six innings not man on the opposing
side reaching first base. He sprained
his arm in the sixth, and has been
unable to pitch ball until about
month ago. since then he has done
we'll. The next hired players signed
up was Schmitt and Lake who came
here after the Fargo business school
CLOSED in June. They certainly
strengthened the home team. Their
first try out was against Willow City
where they showed up remarkably
well. Lake has certainly pitched
Bottineau to success in the Antler
and Maxbass games. Schmitt's
catching belonged in a professional
class. and he is an artist with the bat,
seldom tanning and has number
of two. and three base hits piled
up in his credit. First baseman
Foster one of the local boys played
very fast ball. but his percentage in
batting is below the average. Em.
Woodhall on second is certainly an
all round player stands high as
batter and is among the best at run
ming bases. Murphy who held down
third base, formerly played with
;Souris. He has been the very heart of
the ball team since he moved here
this spring to follow his business,
as lawyer. He has been nick
named Home Run Murphy, on ac-l
count Of his high batting average. Ed
Smith il certainly one Of the fastest
short stops in the county, playing star
ball and making some Of the neighbor-
ing towns hired players show up very
poor. His batting wac also good.
Scotty Hunt who joined the team
early in JulYis Minnesota boy and
was valuable timber for the team.
He has only one error charged up
against him in his field work, He also
pitched a few games for Bottineau

COUNTY DIVISION
PETITION | FILED.

County Auditor Malberg received a
copy Of the petition for county divi-
sion, calculated by Middle River par
ties last spring, from the Secretary
OF State, P. p. Hanson, Saturday
morning, and it is now on file in the
county office . as provided by law.
The filing occurred barely in the
nick OF time. The law says it, shall
be done ninety days before election
and the time would have been up
last Monday. ~
SO much opposition to the scheme
has developed among the settlers in
the proposed new county that it was
thought the matter had been aban-
doned and that the petition would
not be filed. Whether the question
has been completely killed already
or whether it will have life enough
to last through the campaign remains
to be seen. :4.<. ...5. <"s: ..- IA

petition will be found in The COVER
nor's proclamation which will be
found on another page of this paper.
1t has 727 signatures, but as there
are several Implications and a few
that are questionable on the score
OF eligibility, there are barely enough
good signatures to comply with the
law. #+E I'D @.r.s,...
