purpose education in t h e
planting and growing of trees.

Prof. Thompson, who has
made careful study of For

as the needs of the institution
require. The common branch

taught in t h e preparatory

academic work will comprise
courses in arts and scieners

Economy Overdone.

Economy of operation as
the first essential of success
full railroading, appears to be
having it's full exemplification
in North Dakota. From a
study of the condition of things
in that state it is difficult to
escape the conclusion that a
desire to make a record in
reduction of cost of transporta-
ton cuts a large figure in the
deplorable conditions which
exist today in that great grain
country. 7 h e capacity of
motive power employed is
overtaxed, the movement of
traffic is condition upon it's
accomplishment at the mini
mum degree of cost and such
considerations as prompt and
efficient service appear to be
subordinated to the settled
policy of reducing the cost of
operation below any point ever
yet attained in railroad expert

Railroad Operations Carried On
Only with Difficulty.
FREIGHT BLOCKADE
Fuel and Provisions Given Right Of
Way---Merchandise Badly Tied
Up---Little Hope for Relief.

There is but little relief in
the freight situation on the
Great Northern in this section,
it is still a blockads so far as a
freight business is concerned.
The company manages to get
it's passenger trains with mail
and express through the same
day they are due, and have
motive power enough left to
keep the county supplied with
fuel and provisions from day
to day. Blu t complaints of
merchandise on the road from
thirty to sixty days are fire.
quent.
There is some snow on the
track, and no little part of the
trouble comes from this cause,
but the main trouble with the
Great Northern seems to be the
the lack of motive power all
over the system. One railroad
man said to a Courant repre-
sentative. The Great North
ern buys good engines, but the
management is too economical
to keep them in repair. They
keep them pulling trains every
possible hour they will turn a
wheel, then repair them as
cheaply as possible, and get
them at work again. T h e
indications are they have all
given out at once-got sick and
lame-and today the Great
Northern has business enough
on it's tracks for two, good
engines for every cripple it has
at work.
There was another heavy fall
of snow this week, which will
further cripple transportation.
There seems to be little hope al
the present time for any relief
before spring. With the best
facilities and a clean track
the railroads would have all
they could do, but with increas.
ing snow difficulties and de.
creasing engines efficiency, anc
no new ones on the market tc
be had, it looks like a case Of
wait for your freight until il
comes.

NEW AGENCY.
Col. Berthiaume Made General Agent
for North western National Life.

W
A deal was consumated this
week by which Col. A. Berth
iaume was made general agent
of the Northwestern National
Life Insurance Company of
Minneapolis, with headquarter
at Bottineau.
This company has been in
operation for twenty years, and
is under the management of
such men as J. G.. Chamberlain
president of the Security Bank
of Minnesota, B. F. Nelson of
the Nelson lumber company,
G. T. Jaffray, and other Mime
apolis bankers. The treasurer
of the Company is G. w Towle,
formerly of Park River in this
state.
The funds of this company
are loaned largely upon farm
lands, nearly a million being
loaned in this state alone, and
considerable in B O tt i n e a n
county. - '' '@'
The Colonel is ready to talk
insurance to anyone who needs
either the protection on the
investment. With the low ex-
pense rate and high interest
rates of western farm loans
this company should be a pay
ing investment.

Someone among the dead au-
thors, someone who's name we
cannot now recall, but anyway
we know he was not a fool, has
assured us that there are two
kinds of fools, namely: Fools
and d fools. Willow City
is blessed with one of the last
named kind; one who feels it
his duty to attend public meet
ings and create disturbances by
making ignorant remarks; one
who butts in on people when
they are discussing their own
affairs and gives his views on
the subject; one who goes to
church only to criticise the
sermon, or make fun of the re-
ligious rites, who does every
thing in short except attend to
his own business. Editor Mich
ael a year or so ago SHE'D some
bricks at the fools who created
disturbances during plays in
the opera house, and for a time
we gave Mike credit for being
the original fool killer, his
work having proved so efficient,
but these were just ordinary
fools. Where is the d fool
killer?

THE MESSAGE.

Governor Carter's message to the
Legislature makes no attempt at be-
ing brilliant public document. but
II serves the apparent purpose of the
author. and the needs of the legisla-
tors, in being straightforward
statement of the matters of chief
Importance now before the Territory.
The definite recommendations
which the Governor makes for the
increasing demands for the educa-
ton OF the Territory's children is
very gratifying to those who realize
that practical and efficient education
il the first necessity Of sound prog
ress.
Health matters, always of vital
import to Hawaii, are handled in II
manner which suggests good judg-
ment II the estimates for appropria-
tions give the executive officers suf-
rcient funds TO work with.
immigration is given first place
among the topics discussed and there
Is nothing which will have a more
far-reaching influence upon the Ter
ritory. The proposal 20 provide a
special fund for this work by spe-
cial taxation involves much careful
elaboration. but there is no ques-
ton that the immigration work
should go forward.
In County matters this message r.
not quite as definite and clear cut as
on other important issues. The Coz
ernor in one paragraph says we
must keep the confidence of the
bondholders by not alternating the
public property, and later suggests
County bonds for the construction of
County roads.
The Legislature will undoubtedly
find a way out of this alienation-of-
property tangle which is forever be-
ing brought up, and pass local legis-
lation besides securing action by
Congress that will clear the way for
the future.
The sizing-up of the financial sit
uatiOn and arrangement for the ex-
penditure OF the biennial surplus 50
That II will constitute IA reward OF
merit fund is very good,
There is nothing in the message
to set the Territory on fire. It's con-
tents are rather an aid to easy d.
gestion and healthy growth.

Wells. who was permanently injured

On the transfer of public property
the Governor says:
Your deliberations should be
guided by common interest for the
whole Territory. Your duties, II
properly undertaken, do not make
you partisans OF either County or
Territory. There is no saving by the
transfer Of expenditures from one to
the other. But, In view OF the sep
arate corporate powers and response
bilities. the property of one cannot
with reason and propriety be trans
ferred. without consideration or COM
pensation, to the other. This ques-
tion of the right to dispose of prop
erty Is serious and can no longer be
set aside with indifference.
IF II IL your desire to enlarge by
amendment the functions. the scope
OF the Counties. and give over to each
the court houses and jails. with the
care of prisoners. then In justice to
each County, let the property m each
be appraised and paid for, thus keep
ing faith with our Territorial bond
holders and protecting our credit.
