Sleighing has up to this time prov
ed to be the most convenient way of
travelling about.
Mr.. and Mrs. P. O. Hanson made
trip to Warren last week.
Alfred PauIson. Of Argyle, visited
with friends here last week.
Andrew and Tom Ramstad left
the first of the week for their claims
in the western part Of North Dakota.
Married:-On Friday last at the
home of the bride, Adolph Elseth

The ceremony was performed by Rev.
g. J. N olstad, of Warren, in the pre-
sence of a large number of relatives
and friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Elseth
will leave within a few weeks for
Saskatchewan, Canada, to make
their future home and become loyal

While the legislature is about to
close and with lot, OF work yet to
do, it is indeed queer to note how
our honorable legislators can spend
their valuable time on such matters
as the resolution recently passed re-
qusting president Roosevelt to run
for third trem. The legislature is
not political convention, but law
making body of the state of Mime
sofa, and costs the state a large sum
of money every day.

Mr.. J. J. Hill scored in the
Supreme Court decision in the $780,
600 stock issue case. That shows
that the railroad question is too big
to be settled in any other way than
by government ownership. Why
don't Uncle Sam buy the whole rail
way system of this country? To do
SO il is only necessary for the govern
ment to appraise the property and
then issue government securities in
exchange for private securities now
standing against this property.
There would be no real drain on the
United States treasury. The
government simply would start its
printing presses, and print the neces-
sary bonds, and these would be issued
in exchange for the private securi.
ties which would be destroyed. Any
dispute as to valuation would be
settled by condemnation proceedings

Gossip in Railway Circles

The meeting of the Transcontinental
Association on March in Chicago
promises to be one of the most i'm
portant in the history of that organ
ization and will last from one month
to six weeks. All the high officials in
the traffic departments of the Western
lines will be present and it is reported
that several San Francisco merchants
will wait upon the railroad men and
try to secure a reduction in the tariff.
Applications for a lower rate will be
made on everything-from gasoline
engine to carbide of calcium, but the
requests for lower rates which will be
most seriously considered will be those
for hardware, furniture, machinery
and building material. A new trans
continental tariTf, in fact, will be ar
ranged and though there will be no
general change in the rates, it is un-
derstood that there will be a reduction
in the rate on all shipments that will
aid to the rehabilitation of San Fran
cisco. The new tariff will be issued
to the merchants not later than May.
The association will pass on the regu-
lar docket, which has been under con-
sideration for the last five or six
months, and will also take up the rul-
ings and instructions received from
the Interstate Commerce Commission
since the passage of the Hepburn bill.
The railroad men who will attend the
meeting from the West will be Edward
Chambers and w. G.. Donnelly of the
Santa Fe; George w. Luce of the
Southern Pacific and his secretary,
Fred Cough: the San Pedro, Los An
geles and Salt Lake line will be repre-

IS AN AMERICANA. s, Point Rich
mond, Cal. This correspondent writes /.
"A male child is born to American
parents aboard of an American ship IN
foreign waters. The father is an
American citizen. They land in Eng
land and live there for several years
The father never renounces his citizen
ship. They return to the United States.
When the child has grown to manhood
is he or Is he not an American citizen
without declaration of intention?"
The answer is that such a child is
an American citizen, for a vessel sail
ing under the American flag is always
American territory, wherever ii may
be. In the case cited. the child on
reaching majority would not have to
make a declaration of intention, being
an American by birth.
