into the union on equal footing with the

The practice of renting out the use of
farm land to renters seems to be grad
ually but steadily on the increase among
land owners in Cavalier county. A
number of the owners, who for various
reasons do not care to operate or work
the land themselves, prefer to rent it
out and seem satisfied to take their
share on the rental plan and let the
renters have the rest. Some of these
land owners are absentee landlords,
some are holding the land until they
get a chance to sell it for a satisfactory
price, and others are farmers who are
tired of active, personal conduct of their
farms and can afford to retire from hard
work and let someone else do the hustl-
ing. 1t may be that in course of time
the renting system will become as ex
tensively established in North Dakota
as it is in Indiana and other states,
though it will be a long time from now,
if ever. 1t is evident that Cavalier
county, being among the oldest settled
and most prosperous counties in the
state and the county wherein, probably
the farms are the largest in size, on the
average, would be one of the first to
show the tendency towards the rental
system.

The month of February, which closed
with Thursday of last week, by a brief re-
view of the weather conditions during
it's twenty-eight days, shows that the
temperature and conditions generally
were exceedingly more moderate than
that recorded during January. There
was a whole week during the earlier
part of the month that the thermometer
ranged along toward the twentles above
zero, and at no period during the month
has the mercury stayed for any length
of time at points indicating extreme cold
Sunday, the Bird, was the coolest day
during the month, 36o below zero being
the reading of the minimum thermo-
meter on the morning of that date. Two
weeks later, on the 18th was experienced
the warmest day during the whole
month, it being AL above zero, Another
fact that the records of the month show,
is that little if any snow fell, that more
than half of the month was bright sun
shine weather in contrast with the fire.

RAILROAD COMMISSIONER SCANDAL

Following are some extracts from the
sensational report made by State Rail
road Commissioner Simon Westby to
the lower house: cat the commence
ment of the first meeting of the present
railway commission, MIR. Diesem pro-
duced a book from the vault and re-
quested me to examine the same. as it
contained the records of the Office. l
thereupon examined said book and
found nothing therein, and made this
remark to Commissioner Diesem: You
have a very clean record and during
the proceedings of said meeting l made
motion that all proceedings had and
done, together with the motions and
statements made by each member, be
taken down and recorded by the secre-
tary, which motion was ridiculed by
| President Diesem, and the secretary
failed entirely to record any of said pro-
ceedings, as the record any of said pro-
ceedings, as the record book still is
blank" "Immediately after entering
upon the duties of my Office | was in
formed by Secretary Hammond that the
law was inadequate and deficient in not
providing the commission with amply
powers to enforce it's decisions and de-
crees. Being that he had held the Office
of secretary for so long a time and that
he was informed upon this subject and
| therefore believed his statement.
Since SAID time, however, l have Ell
deavored to acquaint myself with the
laws in regard to common carriers and
the powers given the railway commits
%sioners to control the same, and as near
as l can learn | find that the same are
full, adequate and complete II fur

the statements that have been credited
to President Diesem by the press.

ed to have said that the commission con
sists of two members, himself and Jim
Shea, and that, unfortunately, Jim Shea
had two votes. and the further state.
ment that he always had been in the
minority whenever he had desired the
commission to take action in any matter
81 wish to state here that neither Jim
Shea nor any other person has ever at.
tempted to influence my actions in any
respect whatsoever, nor to suggest the
manner in which I should vote at any
of our meetings. There has been but

THE 1907 SESSION W

The present session of the legislature
promises to make a lot of trouble for the
new 1905 code. Up todate a great many
more bills have been introduced than
any session of the past. If you do not
get a copy of the new measures, you will
not know what is the law. The quick
est, cheapest and best way to know the
new law is to buy a copy of the "Pocket
Edition." This will be printed within a
few days after the governor has disposed
of the last measure before him. 1t will
in addition to the laws, contain a lot Of
North Dakota statistical matter, which
will be of interest, we think. The
"Pocket Edition" will cost but a dollar
and its possession may save ysu much
more than this. Send this sun and
your address and the Courier Democrat
will have a copy delivered you as soon
as printed
