A SEARCHLIGHT ON "HIM."

Far be it from any gentle, man-admlr-
ing feminine to assert positively that the
following statements concerning the
sterner sex are absolutely and unequivo-
cally correct. They are the opinions OF
Mrs. r. z. O'Connor, the brilliant wife
and as such are humbly presented:
A woman wants one thing in a man
when she is 10, another thing at %, and
something different at 36; but at 10
all women can join hands and give an

have learned generally by life of
self-sa crifice that unselfShness Is the
very rarest quality in man.
A man may be generous and sincere
and large minded, but he very rarely
possesses the constant ana the apsoiute
unselfishness of woman. Man as an
animal really likes himself; he takes
pleasure in his own desires, whatever
they may cost other people. For eI-
ample, there are many men III the Wofld
who have never made genuine sacrince
in their whole lives for either their wives
or their children: this could probably
not be said for even the most selfish Wlle
and mother in existence.
IT is difficult for a girl to realize that
during the honeymoon she must take heI
stand for the future. "A proud Wolnaii
holds up her head and says, Il only want
what is voluntary" 1t is so difficult Tor
her to realize that she should exact what
is her right. If she does this the selfish
oppressor will at least have respect Tor
her: whereas, he gets into the hablt OF

Sfudinus Indians.

An Aroostook farmer recently ap-
preached two Indiaps from the Passa-

them to pick potatoes, offering $3.50 a
day and board.
One of the Indians asked the farm
er if he had an organ in the house, and
being answered in the negative told the
farmer they weuld not work for him,
as they would want to work for some
one having a musical instrument so they

Vital Statistics.

Crookston Journal: During the year
1905 there were SIG births and 299
deaths in Polk county, as shown by
the statistical returns made to the
clerk of the district court by the Min
nesota health department. Crookston
being the largest center of popula-
ton in the county, leads in the number
of births and the number of deaths,
but the percentage of deaths, consid-
ering the population. is far less here
than in some other portions of the
county.
The report shows one birth for every
A persons and one death for every n
persons in the county last year.
The death record takes into account
all those caused either by disease, ac-
cident, or by violence.
In Crookston there were ISL births
and 65 deaths.
The report is being recorded in the
clerk of courts Office today and was
received by him from H. NJ. Bracken
of the State Board of Health and Vital
statistics this morning.

REPORT HANDED IN.
Farmers Near Erskine Will Organize
to Fight Ditch No. 5.

The board of reviewers who were
appointed to view ditch No. and who
have spent the past q days at that
work. finished their labors yesterday
and filed their report with Clerk of
Court Lanctot.
In their report, which is very ev-
haustive, they say that the benefits
accruing from the proposed ditch will
amount to $4,000, and that the cost
will be about so or SIS per cent of that
amount.
1t will be about 40 miles long and
while it will be of great benefit 20
many, there are great many Others
living in that vicinity who claim that
this ditch will greatly damage them
and they say they will fight it. They
will hold mass melting at Erskine
on Monday for the purpose Of discus
sing ways and means of fighting the
proposition.
This ditch, which will drain the
country all around Erskine, is one IF
the most important of the many ditch
es which have been built by the county
lately. 1t will run through the towns
of Knute, Badger and part of Red Lake
county and empty into the Clearwater
river.
Judge Watts will hold a final hear
ing on the affairs of the ditch some
time in April, when it is hoped that all
trouble will be satisfactorily settled:

WORKING OF
THE LAW
State Engineer A. L. Fellows Tells Of
the Manner in Which the s1,0OO,ooO
Will BE Secured and Used By the
People Of North Dakota.

State Engineer A. L. Fellows says
that there is about $2S,0OO,OO0 in the
reclamation fund of the United States
at the present time After July there
will be about 100000 more. OF this
some 100000 is from the sale of the
public lands of North Dakota. 1t is
all to be used in the 16 states Of
Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas and Texas
and the states west of them. This
money can only be used ON projects
sanctioned by the secretary of the in
terror and where possible, 81 per cent
OF the money realized from the sale
of public lands in any state, must be
used in that state. The money must
be returned to the fund at the end If
ten years, the people to whom it is
loaned, paying it back in ten annual
installments.
While it Is said that this fund is
available, that is only partially true.
1t has all been set apart for projects
in the various states and it will take
several million more dollars to COM
plete the work now under considera-
ton. AS no project can be started
without the money all being in the
fund before it is begun, it will readily
be seen that the fund is really not
available.
The 100000 segregated by the
Hansbrough bill from this fund for
drainage in the Red River valley, is
really available if the bill becomes a
law. There will be about s2,500O00 of
the fund available in this state, $780,
900 has already been set apart or prob
ably will be for irrigation in the west
ern part of the state. This will leave
ample funds for the drainage of the
valley. AS soon as the bill becomes a
law, the state will have to pass laws
to govern its expenditure. The area
to be drained will be divided into dis
tricts and these districts will in turn
be divided into sub-districts. All will
be under the charge of an engineer and
the subdivisions under his assistants.
This arrangement will prevail, until
such time as the system is completed
and in good working order, then it will
be turned over to the people of the
state.
