500 FOH FARGO.

Surveyors have been busy for some
little time past marking out a line
for a proposed railroad through
northwest Ottertail county. cutting an
open path four feet wide through
woods and across marshes and set
ting stakes at regular intervals. 1t
is believed at Fergus Falls and vicin-
ity that the 500 railway is behind
the enterprise and that line will be
constructed either this fall or next
year. The supposed route is from
Fargo to Duluth. the line running
nearly direct. but with slight south
erly sweep to cut through new terri
tory. The line. ii constructed. will
come into competition with the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific lines
at few points but as Il rule it passes
through territory that is at present
without railroad facilities. Recently
the 500 is said to have made traffic
arrangements with the Milwaukee
whereby the 500 may secure some of
the Fargo trade and it is possible
that ii the company is satisfied that
sufficient encouragement is forthcom-
ing the road will be built.

woodsmen from Ross & Ross. This
fall have engaged the services of
seventy-five men here. We have eight
camps. employing between 800 and
400 men. Preliminary work for the
winter is now under way. and logging
operations will be quite extensive in
the Bemidii district this winter.
Five men secured in East Grand
Forks tried to jump their jobs this
week. l had them arrested as they
were about to board the train in Be-
mtdji to go to Duluth. and they will
be brought up in court. l advanced
the mems railroad fare from East
Grand Forks to Kelliher and they
were work at he rate of $40 month.
The advanced fare is to be withheld
from their wages. They worked two
days and then quit and went to Be-
midi. Agents and employers all along
the line have trouble with men leav-
ing work before fulfilling their con-
tracts. and it is high time that an
example was made of some of them"

SCHOOL LAND.
List Of School Land to be Leased at
Fargo Next Month.

TuTSO Nc4C month";
The descriptions of the state school
and institution lands, which will be
open for Easement Monday, have been
received at the Office of the Cass
county treasurer, and it shows that
there is any amount of desirable land
that will be open for the use of the
farmers who will be there then to bid
on it. There are in all 112 quarter
section of land that are open for bid
ders whose leases do not expire for
a longer term, their present holders
retaining possession of them.
o. E. Hegge, commissioner of uni
versity and school lands, will be in
Fargo Monday, Oct. 1, when the bids
of those who are DESTROYS of getting
possession of the land will be opened
and the contracts let.
A large part of the school land in
Cass county is under cultivation,
which places it in a class so that it
cannot be let for less than per cent
of its appraised valuation, while any
OF the wild land can be secured for
not less than 1 per cent of the ap-
praised valuation. The land that is
the most desirable and which is in
the class worth more than SO an
acre will be let to persons for one
year only, while any that is under
that figure can be secured for a term
of five years. In this way no one
can secure description of land at
a snap and hold it for more than one
year.
1t is expected that there will be a
large number of farmers in Fargo to
secure the land that they have had
possession of for so many years and
which lies close to land that they
own, making it very convenient for
them to work

A few RELIGIOUS NEWS NOTES

Very encouraging to the lovers of
foreign missions is the financial re-
cord OF the mother missionary society
of America. The American board,
originally nter-denominational, other
principal denominations, in the inter-
est of practical efficiency. have estab-
lished their own. leaving the original
organization mainly to the Congrega-
tionalists. which is the most promi-
nent protestant denomination in New
England. During the last fiscal year
it has raised $913,1 69, the largest
amount by far in its history. The wip-
ing out of its debt of $4,000 a year
ago is practically assured before it's
next meeting Oct 9. That meeting
will be the centennial of it's founding
and will be participated in by various
denominations. One of the interest
ing announcements is an address by
President King of Oberlin, with the
significant title: The Changes of One
Hundred Years in Missionary Theory
and Practice.
There Is great interest in the Cath
Ollie church in two recent decisions of
, his holiness, Pope Plus Tenth, one OF
his DEGREES rejecting any compromise
with the French Republic on the issue
of lay trusteeship of church property;
the other his encyclical ordering Cath
Ollie students out of Italian UNIVERSE
ties.
The unity of the churches seems to
be coming in South Africa also. A
movement has begun there to inquire
into the Canadian plan of union for
Congregational, Presbyterian and
Methodist churches with view to it's
adoption in South Africa.
The Jesuits have chosen as their
general German, Francis Xarier
Wernz. This is the most important
office in the Catholic church next to
that Of pope.
Dr. Dowie has issued a long state
ment in answer to charges made
against him and his administration
by Mr.. Voliva and others. He denies
the charges Of immortality and de-
mands that they specify times and
places. He denies teaching polygamy
and extravaganza in the use of funds.
He would like the titles of the faithful
sent on as soon as possible to aid him
against his enemies. The prophet
who was reported as near to death is
showing much vitality.
Bishop Bell of the United Brethren
has delivered and published an able
argument for the unification of Profess
tant christianity in America. He ar
ranges his argument under sixteen
points, which include practical effici-
ency and the attainment of spiritual
ideals.

THE IDEAL CITY.
Prof. Lucy N. Salmon of vassar
College Describes lt.-Few
Cities Fit Description.

= = : 9 . . . . . . y . 9 o = . y .
The ideal city of the Twentieth
century is thus defined by Lucy May
nard Salmon. a. NJ. professor of his
tory at Vassar college:
4 city with clean streets. we'll
sprinkled streets. streets lined with
well-acred-fOr shade trees.
Streets and roads that are freed
from billboards that are Il stencil in
the community.
Vacant lots now used as dumping
places turned into attractive squares.
Benches along the roadside for
weary pedestrians.
Back yards that are visions of
beauty instead of eyesores.
Window boxes that brighten dull
walls and recreation piers on the
banks of the river.
All these make for patriotism as
we'll as for civic beauty and right
eousness.
If it is true that the boy without
playground is father to the man
about a job. We may we'll shrink from
looking into the future. Boys and
girls are turned loose on the streets:
mischief, vice and crime result. and
when these conditions become I'M
bearable We turn to the curfew as
negative means of dealing with con-
ditions that ought never to have exist
ed
Miss Salmon also makes plea for
social reform. She advances as a
contrast to the existing aristrocratic
clubs a settlement plan which shall
provide amusement and offer instruc-
ton to the "other half"
In her plea for the neglected thou
sands in their homes of leisure Miss
Salmon says:
What remains for the other half
of the community but the saloon
where, as some one has said, man for
cents may join the most democratic
club on the face of the earth? The
wrecks of humanity are wrecks for
the most part through lack of social
intercourse that has had legimate
means of qualification"
