THERE will be no more farmers ex-
cursi0ns to the North Dakota agri.
cultural college. While on his way to
New York to take passage for Europe
on tour Of investigation In the inter-
est OF the agricultural college, Prest-
dent Worst stopped in St. Paul to In
terview the railway authorities re-
gardtDg u continuance of the practlc.
ally free excursions to the college. He
was informed that, owing to the low.
ering OF passenger rates by the last
session OF the legislature, the railway
people Thought the companies c.,uld
hardly afford to give reduced rates to
anybody to 20 anywhere. 1t was ex-
planned to Mr.. Worst that tile excur.
si0ns were not discontinued by reason
Of any antagonism to the college, but
because Ut the general railway plan to
make no excursion rates or reductiuns
In states where there has been rate
legislation. Some three thousand
farmers have for several years annu-
ally visited the college and experiment
station aud have gotten many new
aud practical ideas by such visits.
Many parents who made the trip be-
came interested, and as . result of such
interest sent their sons and daughters
to the college for one or more terms.
The plan has been the best kind Of an
advertisement for the college aud very
popular with the farmers. IL il not
to be supposed that the college people
are pleased with the stoppage OF the
excursions. 1t had been hoped to get
many VI tile new settlers from the
western part OF the state to visit the
college this season.

the writer has been invited by his

Elsewhere In the Record we publish
IN article taken from Mr.. IT'S paper.
Although written In q mild and con-
sentative strain, yet we fancy there is
. slightly unfriendly tinge to it.
But this can hardly be the case. II
really unfriendly, however, there may
be mitigating cause for the touch Of
bad temper ON the part Of the sena-
tors Sidekicker. For month, at least,
. careful perusal Of his paper has
failed to show any Of those thankful,
soulful paragraphs dedicated to some
kind and plying neigbbor who had
invited the youthful scribe to free
feed, and thus saved punch or two In
his meal-ticket. Why, those descrip-
tions Of the s'luscious viands' and
"toothsome delicacies'' set before him
has often made as SO hungry between
meals that we've been compelled to 60

unfriendly spirit. Let's see. Less

requested. although already down on

the conclusion Of the talk Mr.. r.
earnestly shook the writer's hand and
thanked him for ''helping US out, as
he put 1t. Now, what strikes us as
being inconsistent IL this: II Streeter

his neighbOrs, invite the Linton scribe
to address them and associate with
them less than year Ago? II the ac-
.cusations and intimations Of the fla.

rector Of great moral lever and IL

instead Of praise him? The clerkship

Artesian Water on Powder River

w. A. Zweifel and j. NJ. Kochens-
parger will return to North Powder
in the morning to assist Mr.. Hunt,
the we'll digger. Mr.. Zweifel stated
that he was working at the time the
artesian flow was struck on the Lune
farm few days ago. The we'll is
five and a half inches in diameter
and flows 10000 gallons in "a hours.
Mr.. Lund is delighted-that is all
the water he wants for house and do
mestic purposes. A little later he ex-
poets to have another well dug for
the purpose of irrigating a 40-acre
tract, which lies too high to be irri-
gated by tn present system of
bitches. The water raises to a
height of 81 feet above the ground.
Mr.. Hunt is now driving a well of
similar size for AL Hutchinson.
1t is probable that this well will go
deeper, and It is expected that the
flow will be increased. On the Lund
well 1t required one minute to fill the
pipe one foot at first, but after sink
ing about 10 feet, the flow was in
creased five times and Mr.. Lund
stopped the work, as 1t gave him al
and more water than he wanted

Holdups Get Over $500.

Joe Smith, who, with Lew Stevens,
conducts saloon here, was held up
last night between the hours of IL
and / o'clock by two masked men
and robbed of between $500 and
$500. The thieves escaped, and no
clue, up to a late hour tonight, had
been discovered that might lead to
their detention.
Last night South's partner, Stevens,
went to n dance at Woodside and
South was in the saloon alone until
about II o'slock, when he closed the
este blishment and went to his room
In building on the opposite side of
the street. After being asleep but
short time he was aroused by two in
truders, who had forced open the
light door of his room and who lveled
revolvers on him at the same time
turning a flash lantern on his face.
The men then began a search Of the
room, and South, realizing that rob-
berry was the motive, hurled through
window sack containing his
money. The robbers quietly contin-
