The reportof the Southern Cot
ton Association, which yas issued
on Monday, places the cotton
acreage at 27,735,sS0 acres for
1906. The acreage for 1905 was
26,999,642, being 2.76 per cent
less than for 1906. South Carroll
mas acreage was 2.2l2,S07 last
year and is estimated to be 2,l63,-
s51 for 1905. While the entire
acreage may be greater, it does
not necessarily follow that the
yield will be propcrtionately lar
ger, for cotton is several weeks
later than last year aud the con-
ditions even now are unfavorable.

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.

The convention which will assemble
at jamestown one week from today will
be remarkable gathering. 1t has
been the theory of sensationalists that
in politics in this country the people
do not have voice, and that the pop
ular will is an unknown element.
This has come to some extent from
the sensational features of the maya
zines which in the struggle for readers
have resorted to appeals to public pre-
JUDGES which were we'll worthy of the
yellow journals of a few years ago.
These magazines backed by the FORM
er regulations of this class of publica-
tions, claimed that in the conventions
of the several political parties there

Pungent Perfume on the Japs.

Much the same reasoning applies
to the Japanese. In fact, their per-
fume is even more pungent than that
of the Chinese. This is due to the fact
that their tastes run in the direction of
the same kind Of food. and to the lack
of cleanliness of their garments. The
latter are rarely changed, and never
washed. The people, 1t is true, bath
every day, mostly in water heated to
temperature that would parboil any
ordinary civilized human being. But
on emerging from the bath they re-
sumo the same old silk, wooden and
cotton garments, which not only they,
themselves, but also their ancestors,
even to the third and fourth genera
ton, have worn without interruption.
Heavy silks and WOODEN clothes, though
durable, are apt to require cleansing
after some twenty or thirty years Of
constant use, especially in a tropical
climate. Hence 1t ia not altogether
surprising that the people of Japan
should present powerful contrast to
their flowers. which latter, by reason
of some popularity of the soil, are
absolutely without any trace of per-
fume. So searching is this "pedfum
du Japon" that white people who have
occasion to spend any. time in the
dominions of the mikado become i'm
pregnated thereby to such an extent
that 1t is not until years after their
return home in America or in Europe
that they are able to rid themselves
and their effects of the odor.

FOB GOOD PAYMENTS.

The matter of better sidewalks is
receiving the attention it merits in this
city, the council having determined
to condemn large portion of the old
walks which are constructed of boards,
and to replace them with walks made
of cement Or paving blocks.
The move is certainly in the right di-
rection. A dilapidated and broken
board walk even in the residence por-
tions of the city is not in keeping with
the progressiveness of the city of
Grand Forks, and does not indicate the
public spiritedness of its citizens.
A city is largely measured as res
idence place by its beauty. Whether
that beauty consists of parks, of costly
buildings, Of beautiful boulevards and
streets, of we'll kept lawns, or of SUBJ
stantial pavements and sidewalks, the
individual who is considering the mat
ter of making it his home will give
attention to all these things. He will
not be governed by them so much as
he would by the question of whether
or not it is suitable business location
or profitable manufacturing mart.
They will be considered next after the
social and educational opportunities
.ollred.
aside from their identifying advan-
tages the elimination of the old time
side walk is matter of public con-
venience. The side walks of city
are the thoroughfares of the citizens
and are in constant use. The condi-
ton in which they are kept is matter
of convenience to every resident every
day in the year.
The board walks are slippery after
the least rain, and where they are the
least sloping it is impossible to pass
over them at such times without dan
ger of falling. In wet weather they
are but little better than the ground
for the mud is carried to them from
the crossings and it is impossible to
keep the footing.
Cement walks cost more but once
they are properly built, they will last
till destroyed by an earthquake or
some other calamity. They are there
fore convenience, a beauty and
saving in money.

enough of desirable character Sc
cured to save every bushel of grain in
the northwest.
These people would be glad to come
with the cheap rates and good wages
which they could secure. Many of
them in the states as far east as Ohio
and New York are working in the linn
tied harvest fields for dollar day.
They could come to this state and save
more in few weeks after deducting
the small railroad fare than they could
earn in as many months in the east.
The only thing necessary is to inter-
est them and show them what they can
actually earn. Many of the young men
especially would be only too glad to
avail themselves of the opportunities
offered for the purpose of seeing the
country and witnessing the harvesting
of crop where one farm produces
more grain than whole county in the
east.
1t would be splendid idea for the
farmers to write to the papers in the
east where they are known and place
the details Of the matter and the ad-
vantages offered before the public. In
that way they would be able with a
small amount of labor to reach a larg-
er number of people, than would be
possible by means of personal cores
pondence. The papers would be only
too glad to secure such matter and
they would be doing service to their
readers in presenting to them an OPP
portunity to secure better wages than
they probably ever dreamed of.
No time should be lost in getting the
matter started, for with the present
outlook for help and the large amount
of grain to be harvested and threshed
the more men that can be secured for
the state the better it will be for the
farmers.

From point about twenty miles

new line which the Great Northern

an extension will be built to Minot,
which will afford the company another

The extension from Minot will run
through Oberon and Esmond. The
line will be finished as far as Oberon
this year, and will probably be CON-
pleted to Minot early next year. The
distance from Aneta to Minot is about
175 miles.

History Of Instrument on Which . NV
Old Kentucky Home" Was
First Played.


The latest addition to the collection
of Kentucky relics on exhibition at the
armory and perhaps the most interest
ing, says the Louisville Courier-Journ-
al. is the flute that was the property of
Stephens Collins Foster and on which
the melody Of my Old Kentucky
Home. was worked out and first
played. 1t is wooden and an eight
Keyed instrument. and Is in excellent
condition. 1t was brought to Louis
Vile yesterday and added to the collec-
ton by Colonel William Hamilton IF
Alleghaney, Pa, to whom it was given
by Mr.. Foster on condition that the re-
ctpient learn to play it. The history
attached to the instrument is most in
teresting.
Early. long before he wrote the song,
Mr.. Foster made trip to Nashville,
Tennessee. and while there bought a
gamecock to which he became attach
ed by its sporting qualities. Return
Ing to Alleghaney, he showed the cock
to one Frank Robinson, who lived
there. Mr.. Robinson liked the bird and
offered to trade the flute, which was
then in his possession, for the spurred
creature. That was how Mr.. Foster
acquired the instrument.
1t passed into the hands of. Colonel
Hamilton in 1857 and was given to him
by the author himself on condition that
he should learn to play it. Colonel
Hamilton said yesterday that he made
many and earnest attempts to acquire
the habit, but. although he did get SO
he could make a noise, he never made
much progress. Last year he gave the
instrument. which long ago he had
placed in an elaborate lether case, to
his son, A. r. Hamilton.

WORK WELL DONE.

The adjournment of congress marked
the close of a session of more than us
ual interest and Importance. to the
people of this nation. 1t has been an
extraordinary session in many ways.
The amount of legislation enacted, and
especially legislation of truly reform
character, is alone sufficient to war;
rant the designation of the session just
closed as one of the most important
ever held.
AS usual most of the important mea-
sures We're held until the closing days
of congress before final action was
taken, but in the closing rush prac-
tically all of pressing Importance were
taken care Of, and in a way that will
meet the general approval of the peo-
pie.
In fact the evident desire on the part
of congressional members to comply
with the plainly expressed wishes of
public sentiment was never more APP
parent than during this last session of
congress. The rate question, the pure
food law, the free alcohol bill, the
statehood measure, the prohibition of
campaign contributions by corporal. ons
and many other measures of signal i'm
portance in the public were handled
in this manner.
Although it is possible that in some
minor respects this mass of new leg
islation might have been improved
upon, nevertheless substantial basis
has been formed for further work
along the same lines, which will give
the people perfect laws in the end.
Of course the members of congress
will be glad to close their work and
get away before the sweltering heat of
summer would make their labors actu-
ally ardous, and in way their salts
faction will be shared by the people
generally, who are glad to know that
much good work having been accom-
plished the members are fairly entitled
to their season of rest.
When congress recbnvenes next
December it is probable that many new
faces will be found among its men,
bership, but no matter what changes
occur all the people will ask is that
the next congress shall do as we'll in
endeavoring to promote the public
good as has its predecessor.
