The dixie is 5000 feet in length, is
built carefully of rock and covered
with earth. In dimensions it is four
feet in height and three feet wide on
top. The dixie is broken in two or
three places for a rod or two, and at
one point apparently it has been cut
In, recent years. There are also evi.
aences that parts of the dixie have
been broken and swept away by
doods in times long past. Trees over
100 years old growing on the crest
of the dixie also attest in some degree
to its antiquity.
The surveyor, William Ashley, was
EFT first inclined to the belief that it
was an old moran of the glacial pc

tered in the Northwest. Upon close
investigation, however, he was con.

Seattle Times: E. G. Cooper, COM
missioner of insurance for the state Of
North Dakota, made 9 report to Gov.
E. Y. Sarles on Dec. 81, wherein the
entire field of insurance was discuss
ed. Life insurance, fraternal order
insurance and fire insurance were
treated in sections, and recommends
tons >for additional legislation made.
In every recommendation a bill was
drawn and presented to the governor
along with the report. Such COM

teal details in a report are most COM
mendable. North Dakota has an in

of the farmers and the business inter-
ests of the state, believing that there

markets for our products and we
should receive just values therefore,
do respectfully request and urge:
First, that all opposition be withdrawn
from the establishment of an equit-

the legislative assembly of the state

it's grain grading and inspection laws,
establishing grain hospitals for Gus
toners only, and prohibiting terminal
elevators from shipping out more grain
Of given grade than was received
in. Third, that the legislative assem-
bly, of the state of Wisconsin be also
requested to amend it's grain grading
and inspection laws to harmonic with
the requests set forth in the second
article Of this resolution, and to pro-
hibit a few persons from controlling
the storage capacity of an elevator to
the detriment of the many. Fourth,
that the suction draft be prohibited
before grain is weighed and dockage
taken, and that the value of the dock
age be accounted for and paid to the
owner of the grain from which it was
taken. Fifth, that car inspection be
established in each of these states to
ascertain the exact condition of care

all defective cars be specifically noted

Duluth Salesman Says Drifts 100 Feet
High are Common In North
Dakota.

In the Tuesday issue of the Duluth
Herald Frank X. Gravel we'll known
travelling man, is quoted to the effect
that 100 feet drifts are common in :hls
state. Evidently he was misquoted to
the extent of one zero.
The Article:

been spent in this Northwestern ter
ritory and l have never seen the snow
as deep as it is this year," continued
Mr.. Gravel
IN some places in the state, there
are drifts Is to 100 feet high. People
here have no idea of the depth of the
snow. Most of the roads have had to
abandon traffic on their branch lines
for weeks at time. Half of the sui
fering caused this winter will never
be known until spring."

A Nationalist Saved.

The conversion OF Rev. NJ. joanna
rie, a French Protestant pastor, Is a
fine example Of the power OF the Word
of God upon the mind. He was at one
time preceptor In family OF the House
OF HohenBohe, and nationalist. A
neighboring preacher asked him to sup
ply for him. He declined, saying, How
can l preach what l do not believer
what! not believe In CODY" Yes, l
do that" "And surely you believe that
man should love Hmm? Doubtless"
well, then, preach on the words of
Jesus, Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart, mind, soul,
strength" II will try, just to oblige
you" He thought over the words and
took note: First, we must love God
and the reasons thereof. Second, we
must love Him with all our powers In
very deed nothing short Of this could
satisfy God. Third, but do we thus
love God7" "Nop' and then said he,
without any previously formed plan,
was brought to add, we need Sd
ylor,' AT that moment a new light
broke upon my soul; understood that
/ needed Savior, that Jesus was that |
SAVIOR and | loved Him and chung to
Him at once. On the morrow preach |
ed the sermon, and the third head was
the chief-the need Of Jesus and the
necessity Of trusting such Savior"
