The people Of North Dakota
have just laid the corner stone of
a fine building at Bottilleau for
the state forestry school for which
they have been working for ten
years. Nature did but little for
our state in the way of forests,
and the need of encouraging
forest growth was early recog-
nized. The soil and climate are
suitable and it but remains for the
people to study,the best methods
and systematically commence the
planting of trees, II many in
stances, farmers have already
planted windbreaks4 ito, shelter
their buildings and fruit trees, but
the great need of today is the
planting of woodlots for posts and
fuel.

FROM reports which have been
going the rounds of the state
papers it would seem that At
torney P. D. Norton stood a very
good chance of securing a U. S.
land office at Hettinger. The
plan as outlined is to carve a
district out Of the territory COM
prising Adams, Bowman. Het-
finger, a portion of Billings
county, also a slice of eastern
Montana and the north half of
Butte county, S. D. The advo-
Gates of a new office say that the
Dickinson office has too much
work and consequently final
proofs are delayed. This is true
in a way, but the rush will soon
be over, and besides there are
other reasons for the temporary
congestion of work. The govern
ment never anticipated any such
rapid development of the country
as has been witnessed in the last
year or two in Western North
Dakota, and the necessary Office
force has not been provided.
The Milwaukee extension brought
thousands of homesteaders to the
territory and unfortunately, for
the permanent development of
the country south, a large per
cent of these new corners have
been offering Communication ::proof
this season.. 1t has been i'm
possible for the field Inspector in.
the district to cover all the terri
tory as rapidly as desired, but it
would not have been better if
there had been an additional
district, because the government
lacks men and the necessary ap-
preparation. The Hettinger news
papers have not been backward in
publishing to the world the fact
that the fine lands south were
mostly taken. particularly in
Adams, Bowman and Hettinger
counties, and the land office
records corroborate the same, so
it is evident that the heavy rush
is about over. Our good friends
south have not been put to much
inconvenience in coming to the
Dickinson Office. Freight and
various business matters has
brought many of them here often.
If the Hettinger land office
scheme was even feasible, it is
certain that the Montana and
South Dakota representatives in
Congress would never consent to
trade away a portion of their
territory and they will never be
approached by a North Dakota
congressional representative.

anything against Smoot

that even Senator Smoot's opponents
did not charge him with being a poly

RAILROAD LOBBY,
LARGEST KNOWN.
SHOWS ACTIVITY
BuSily Engaged Looking
After Interests Affect
ed by Proposed Leg
iSlatiOn.

Experts are beginning to realize that
one of the biggest railroad Iobbies that
ever swoOped down on Washington is
making its headquarters here now and
devoting its energies and efforts to de-
feat number Of matters of pending
legislation.
1t is declared that even the railroad
rate legislation last session did not
bring to Washington so great a number
OF railroad people as have been attracted
oy the hours Of service bill. the measure
to reduce the compensation Of railroads
Tor carrying the mails. and the La Fol
lette measure to instruct the Interstate
Commerce Commission TO make a phv-
sical valuation Of the railroad systems
of the country.
The lobby now gathered here is said
TO be somewhat different in cbara cter
from that of a year ago. At that time
it was composed largely of the higher
officials and special or general counsel.
or attorneys for the railroads, who
were regarded as experts on the oues-
tions of law involved
At this time there are more practical
railroad men on hand, and also large
number Of minor railroad attorneys
who have political influence in their re-
spective districts and whose business it
is to make personal appeals to the Iegis-
lators.
The fgnt on the hours of service 4II
was prolonged for six weeks before the
committee and when It was reported
from hat body IT was in satisfactory
form so far as tho railroad lobby was
concerned. Yesterdays development in
the house when the motion to take the
bill uD and pass under suspension WAS
defeated, was both a surprise and shock
tc the lobby and il lost no time in or
ganizinE for the next stage Of the fight.
In tfss hope of preventing the ultimate
