REMOVE THEM
COURT HOUSE GROUNDS COULD
BE BETTER IMPROVED BY RE-
MovAL OF OLD BUILDINGS

While Improvements are being
made to the court house building
itself, there is great possibility for
improvement to the court house
grounds by the removal Of the I'M
slightly and certainly unsanitary barn
and outbuildings on the north and
northeast corner of the block.
Sheriff McGillis has shown what
can be done by work and care in
the identifying of the grounds, as
is shown by the lawn on the west
side of the building. d
II these old buildings could be
moved and the space now occupied
by them be made to harmonic with
the rest of the grounds in the way
of planting trees, grass and shrub
berry. the improvement would be ma
terial, not only to the court house
grounds, but to the entire locality.
The commissioners should give
this matter attention, find a place
elsewhere for these buildings and
make their work more complete BIZ
making the entire court house block
thing of beauty and Joy to the
city and the surrounding property.

The census records of crime COM
mitted shows that North Dakota is
among the states that are truly good:
It stands fifth from the top in NOR
ality of the states of the union,
showing "a crimes committed to the
hundred thousand of population. Ok
lahoma is first with four, and the
District of Columbia second with
fifteen. North Dakota stands one
behind Iowa and one ahead of Min
nesota. There are several reasons
for these conditions. North Dakota
is state of largely rural popula-
ton and crimes are committed more
extensively where there are large
centers of poulation. More crimes
are deliberately planned than are
committed in suddenness or heat
and the planners of crime seek the
large cities as a general rule. Their
4 North Dakota has emerged from
/ that frontier state where crime flour
ishes because it's punishment il
slow and because there is larg'
element of tough characters.

The WAY OF It |
MATTER BETWEEN ROBERTS AND
THE GAME WARDEN is
CLEARLY STATED.

TIE opening of the game season
found a swarm of hunters ready for i
slaughter of the innocents, a number
of our local sportsmen returning from
Long lake with well filled game bags.
Among them was o. w Roberts, of
the weather bureau, who is an ardent
lover OF the sport. He, together with
others had boxed their game and had
it taken to the weather bureau, un-
fortunately the box contained more
than the lawful fifty birds, which fact
came to the ear of Deputy Warden
White, an investigation followed and
Mr.. Roberts voluntarily produced the
game and made no effort to conceal
the number. Warden White at once
lodged a complaint and had Mr.. Rob
erts taken before a Justice. On advice
of an attorney Roberts pleaded guilty
to having in his possession more than
fifty birds. He was fined 500 and
costs, which he paid. z5s.
1t is understood Mr.. Roberts will
open UP the case again, his plea of
guilty being the result of a misunder-
standing Of his position and the pen
atty. s5. ..ss i 8 :. ss @s :sl .:z
AS matter of fact the birds were
the combined roundup Of several
sportsmen, none of whom had exceed
ed the limit allowed by law 81.

Attention is called to the dimin-
ishing number of prairie chickens
and it is suggested that if the game
in the state is to be kept from ex-
termination the next legislature
should pass a law protecting chick
ems entirely for period of several
years and at the end of that time
shorten the hunting season. There
is certain charm about the ex-
istence of wild fowls and birds of
the game variety that should appeal
to the citizen, even aside from the
standpoint of the sportsmen, who
sees in the existence of these birds
the qualification of a desire for
slaughter. Unless some steps are
taken to protect game fowl, in few
years they. will be greatly reduced
in number, if not entirely extinct.
The time to act is before the period
of near extinction arrives. After
that it will BIO too late. Ducks
should also be protected in tho
spring season and for a good share
of the time in the fall season, to
encourage their propagation on local
waters. The sportsmen of the state
should be willing to forego their
amusement for a few seasons in or
der that they may not be compelled
to forego it altogether. En- 4ss. Rs I

DEPTH OF DEATHS VALLEY.
Both The Highest and Lowest Points Points ln the United States ln
 Southern California

The United States Geological Survey has just completed a line of spirit levels through Death Valley, California. and much to the suprise of everyone familiar with the region has ascertained that the depth of that area is not so great as was supposed. >The final computations of the results have not yet been made, but the preliminary figures give for the lowest point a depth of 276 feet below sea level. Bennetts We'll, which is near this point, is 266 feet below sea level. These figures may be alternated by two or three feet when the final computa- tions are made, but they are prob ably not more that three feet in error. The Geological Survey now has elevation marks on the highest and lowest points of dry land in the United States.
 It is strange coincidence that these two extremes are both in southern California and only 75 miles apart. Mount Whitney is foot or two over l4.500 feet above sea level. while Death Valley as above stated. is 276 feet below. Before the Salton Sink, also in southern California. was flooded by the Colorado River, it contained the lowest point of dry land in the United States. a spot 2S7 feet below sea level.
 Previous estimates of the depth of Death Valley basin on barometer readings gave for the lowest point figures varying from 250 to 450 feet below sea level. The level line of the Geological Survey is believed to be the first accurate determination of elevations in that locality that has ever been made.
