Cliff Finch returned from a hunting
trip on Monday. He was not very
successful in his quest for chickens.
However he took home with him sew
eral nice fat chickens. He didn't
know that Mrs. Finch was quite an au-
thority on poultry or he would not
have takef the birds home. He would
perhaps have 'fessed up.
"Why Cliff" said Mrs. Finch, these
chickens you have brought home are
tame. Where did you get them?"
Shot 'em Of course. tanned 'em
after shot EN-"
"Oh, dear, whatever shall l do. Gen.
trail, cont you please hurry and get
them. l am so anxious"
OF course 1t was a woman and she
had given a call to long distance a
few minutes before for her, sister in
Fargo. She had only just arrived
home after a three months visit with
her sister. but was terribly anxious to
converse at 80 cents per.
Finally the operator at Fargo was
able to get the party wanted and no
titled the girl in Grand Forks who in
turn notified the anxious sister.

PURCHASE OF LAND
Dickinson People Buy Strip
325 Miles in Length in
Oregon.

A strip of land twelve miles in width
and 1926 miles in Notwithstanding
clear across the state Of Oregon and
containing something like 100000 acres
was purchased by Dickinson people,
The land. situated in one of the most
pretty valleys in the state. is traversed
its entire length by railroad-no part
of it being more than miles from the
road, will be cut into small tracts and
sold to actual settlers. A. c. McGil-
livray is the prime mover in the deal
and he is now in st. Paul closing up
all the details of the trade. Several
other Dickinson land men are in on
the deal and their names will be made
public when the company's officers
have been elected.

FAMOUS Logic CASE
Against City of Fargo for
School Work by Professor
to be Tried. .
Special to The Evening Times.

Special to The Evening Times.
Fargo, Sept. 5.-Notable among the
civil actions to be tried at the ad-
journed term of federal court set to
convene here September 25, is the case
of Alfred E. Logic VS.. the Fargo board
of education. The action was started
to recover $4,000 alleged to be due the
plaintiff on a contract made with the
school board to act as superintendent
of city schools.
1t has been reported on the streets
that the case would not come to trial
as there appeared to be disposition
on the part of the members of the
board to settle the case out of court.
This, however. does not appear to be
Il fact.
lnasmuch as Judge Amidon has al
ways been prominently identified with
school matters in Fargo. it is probable
that in the event of the Logic case
being called for trial at the adjourned
term another federal Judge will be
called here to preside.

LiacoIn'S Advice to Lawyers

Discourage litigation, was his
advice to lawyers. Persuade your
neighbors to compromise whenever
you can. Point out to them how the
nominal winner is often the real loser
in fees, expenses and time wasted.
As peacemaker the lawyer has su-
perior opportunity of becoming a
good man. There will always be
enough business. Never stir up a
litigation. A worse man can scarce
ly be found than one who does this
Who can be more nearly tiend than
he who habitually oveihauls the reg
lister of deeds in search of defects in
titles. whereon to stir up strife and
put money in his pockett A moral
tone ough. to be infused into the pro-
fession which should drive such men
out of it,
1t has been truly said that those
words ought to be posted in every law
Office in the land, and it will be seen,
when Lincolns s record is fully exam
ined, that it was not mere theorist
who wrote them, but an active prac
titioner of wide experience who lived
up to his own teaching. From Fred
erick Trevor Hills "Llncoln the
Lawyer" in the February Century.

Good Fighters, Good Workers

From what employers of Jap labor
say, they are far less undesirable as a
working class than some other nation
alities. They exact good wages and
are thoroughly civilized, in fact quite
effete in their habits and mode of liv-
ing. For instance crew that has
been employed in construction work
on the Rio Grande Southern, demand
that the boarding and lodging cars
be equipped with baths, and every
night when they quit work each one
takes a bath and dresses up rs though
he we're going to party. When
they come to town to make purchases
of wearing apparel they require and
buy the best.
For example on recent pay day
several visited general store in
search of shoes; the article they in
quired for is of the best. selling at
80; the merchant did not carry the
brand, his best shoe selling at 80.
After expressing disappointment be-
cause they could not find better
shoe, they bought the 80 article.
They require that the boarding cars
be kept as neat and cleanly as hotel
dining room, and that the table be
we'll supplied with first class food.
While they seem to live as they go,
getting the best in life that is to be
had, nearly every one has figured out
to day how long he will have to
work to acquire certain sum Of
money when they will quit and re-
turn to their native land to live the
life Of gentleman. Foremen say
they are excellent workmen, and that
when a task Is. explained to them and
they set about 1t there is no occasion
to stand around and watch them lest
they shirk and waste time. Telluride

Government Irrigation

The time will come when it will be
generally acknowledged tnat the most
important and beneficial act passed
by any congress within forty years is
the irrigation act
The irrigation fund already has
twenty eight million dollars in it, and
is increasing at the rate of four mil
lion dollars per annum. The first
great irrigation project undertaken by
the government has been completed
1t carries the waters of the Truckee
river down onto the desert lands of
Nevada and will open up several hun
dred thousand acres for settlement
that heretofore have not been even
good pasture. The work on this pro.
ject is reported to be well done; the
canal that carries the water from the
river down onto the desert plai is
lined with cement, and engineers
claim that there is no good reason
why the dam and canal may not last
for centuries
When the plans of the government
engineers are fully carried ont the
government will have added several
million acres of land to the public
domain which will be divided into
small farms and occupied by prosper
GUS, honest, Industrious citizens. -

Other Advantages IN Beets

In the Post account last week of
the recent meeting of beet growers
held at Carbondale an important fea.
ture of the discussion Was omitted.
That is the feast bility of feeding the
beet tops and also the pulp to cattle,
sheep and hogs. thus putting back
in the soil the elements taken from
it in the production of sugar beets,
and in this way keeping the soil up
to its maximum productiveness and
increasing the profitahleness of the
crops in addition to the profit on
the live stock so fed. 1t is claimed
that not only will the 1000 acres re-
ferred to be assured but that 2. 600 In
the Roaring Fork vallev will probably
be nearer to the correct amount. This
will make it an easy matter to secure
sugar factory somewhere 10 the val
ley.

educate the public generally That
is a matter which is generally recog-
niZed and hard to estimate The di-
rect benefit to the schools through the
aid of the press is not so hard to
judge. The use of the columns of
the local paper is everywhere free to
the school people. Managers of
papers recognize the value of school
items as news. The schools are of
interest to all good citizens. News
of the school even to small personal
items are welcome. When school
questions are up the papers discuss
them fully. and undoubtedly to the
benefit of the schools and of the com
munity. The journal is in re-
ceipt every week of many columns of
matter printed by the papers of the
state on school topics. That this is
an aid to the schools in keeping up
public interest, in advertising school
entertainments and in forming public
opinion. there is no doubt. Where,
ever a paper is published, the school
people should use it. The Journal
wishes to acknowledge to the papers
of the state on behalf of the school
people the great aid they give us and
to solicit closer connection, feeling
sure that it will be of mutual benefit

Snow (S) Lied

Man that is born of women is of
few days and full of snow balls.
He riseth up in the morning and
shoveleth snow while the buckwheats
are frying and a gentle zephyr filleth
up the path before he hath finished
his coffee
He forgeteth to turn off the water
and the plumbers bill maketh him
gray headed while he is vet Young.
He neglecteth to order coal and is
informed by the dealer that there is
a woeful shortage but as a great favor
be may be spaie ed few sacks of slack
FuntIl the trains get in
He walketh in slippery places as
far as the post Office, hoping the train
hath brought him much mail, but is
informed that a snow slide. steen
hundred feet long and as high as
King Solomon mountain, tilleth the
canon and that the snow plow hath
been broken and the Japs hath struck
for dollar and six bits day so he
sadly returneth through the drifts and
spendeth the evening reading last
year almanac.
He filleth the stove with coal and
goeth to bed in comfort, but the
measly FIRE striketh for shorter hours
and freezeth solid, so that the house
is like unto refrigerator plant in
active operation.
From Thanksgiving even unto
Easter, he bucketh the snow to his
neck but when he writeth to the
folks back east, he bIaggeth of the
finest climate on the face of the earth
and refuseth to believe otherwise even
in his own mind.
Chilblains and sore throats follow
him all the days of the week and his
bosom is covered with mustard
plasters and antiphlogistine from the
rising of the sun till the going down
thereof.
He leaveth his heavy ulster a,
home, because the sun shineth bright
ly, and blizzard smiteth him before
he getteth four blocks.
He taketh various and sundry hot
drinks for his cold. and behold. the
undertaken hath him in box before
he discovered that hot drinks are not
good for cold.
And he goeth to his long home
fully convinced that of making snow
there is no end. d.-Silverton Miner.

COLONIAL BALL
GRAND SUCCESS
A Merry ThroRg Celebrated Nd-
tiondl Wedding In Fitting Style
Costumes Numerous
BRIDAL PARTY CONGRATULATED

No social event in Glenwood has
scored greater success than the colon
ial ball and Roosevelt Longworth
mock marriage given last Saturday
evening at Dougan's hall in celebra-
tion of the great event which occurred
at the White House in Washington
the same day.
The hall had been beautifully dec
GRATED for the occasion in the nation
al colors, large mounted specimen
of the American eagle occupying
position at the front of the hall.
Beneath this the stars and stripes
while above the platform was sus-
pended large wedding bell, beneath
which the ceremony was performed.
AT the appointed time the orchestra
played the wedding march and the
bridal party entered the hall and
marched up the ribbon aisle, led by
the ushers, DR.. Mccartney and Prof.
King They We're followed by the
bridesmaids, Misses May McReavy,
Anna Graham, Edna Richards and
Ruth Dougan. Then came the ring
bearer, little Helen Logan, accompan-
led by Barnette Napier, and the maid
of honor, Miss Pearl Dougan. Then
followed Miss Alice the bride, in the
person of Miss Abbie Robinson, on
the arm of her father, Theodore
Roosevelt, impersonated by A. JN
hirl
they selected on account of his re-
semblance to the original article
don tell Teddy, Nicholas Long
worth in the person of b. Z. Napier,
accompanied by C. A St. Clair
alias Bishop Salterlee, in colonial cos.
tune. marched up the opposite side of
the hall and met the bride beneath
the floral bell where the impressive
words were said, after the president
gave his daughter away. The bride
was handsomely gowned, carried
brides roses and looked sweeter, if
possible, than usual, while the brides
maids and the two little maids and
Barnette acquitted themselves in
cHaTmlnB laSnlon. MT. 81. Slalr as
the priest rendered the ceremony in
fanltless style and Barney Napier as
groom was calm and composed but he
failed to kiss the bride, and whether
this was actual forgetfulness or be-
cause his other wife was looking will
probably never be known
The ceremony over, the grand
march was headed by the bridal
party and the dancing was begun,
Rittmayer's orchestra furnishing ex-
cellent music. The ladies with pow
dered hair and colonial costumes
were very attractive while few of
the men adopted the style OF ye olden
time, the prize for the men being
awarded to DR.. Berry.
An elaborate luncheon (beg pardon,
wedding breakfast) was served, and
the entertainment pronounced by all
decided success. The net proceeds,
amounting to about $50, will be used
for the benefit of the free reading
room. ....-

What Two Newspapers Did

There is none in this progressive
age who doubts the absolute necessity
of reading the newspapers, especially
the advertisements. An exchange
gives the following proofs in two
cases, says the Austin News Tribune.
"a gentleman once said to re-
porter: Il never. took paper that
didn't pay me more than paid for
it. One time an old friend of mine
started paper way down South and
sent a copy to me and l subscri bed
just to encourage him and, after a
while it published notice of an order
to sell lot at public auction. So
inquired about the lot and told a
friend to run it up to $50. He bid
off the lot for $38 and sold it in less
than month for 800, so made $62
clear by taking that paper. My
father told me that when he was a
young man he saw a notice in the
paper that a school teacher was want
ed away off in distant country and
he went and got the situation, and a
little girl was sent to him, and after
while she grew up sweet and
beautiful and he married her. Now.
if he had not taken that paper, what
do you suppose would have become of
meH would have been some other
fellow, or may be would not have
haap of oil , -
