COLLEGE NOTES

North Dakota Agricultural College,
March 30.-The registration for the
winter term opened last Monday and
by Tuesday morning all the classes
we're running with mid-term regular
ity. OF course the attendance at the
college is considerably less than it
was during the winter term, but the
attendance now shows a very satisfac-
tory increase over the usual sprin
term attendance.
At present the college interest is
centered in the new buildings that are
to be erected and in the changes that
are to be made in some of the old
buildings. OF particular interest to
the general student body are the
changes contemplated in the armory
The remodeling of this building is in
the hands of the superintendent of
buildings. Mr.. Tibert. and when his
plans are, completed there will be a
drill floor of 81 by LOS feet. This floor
will be fully twice as large. as. the
present floor. The locker and Bath
room equipment will also be greatly
improved and more suitable office will
be provided for the commandant and
the athletic director.
The state board is in session today,
when the bids for all the proposed
Improvements will !, be !. opened and
something definite will then be known
as to what the college. will be able to
do with the funds appropriated by the
recent legislative session for these
purposes, XIX,
The work Of the experts on the ag-
ricultural college staff continues more
and more to attract attention. This
week President Worst received the
following letter which comes from as
far away, as Dublin, Ireland: 81 recog-
nize bulletin No. IL on fax culture by
Professor II. &. Bolley as the foremost
work of its kind. The fax crop is
one of such Importance in the north

necessity arose from the following let

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Editor futile of the Mandan Pioneer

it is difficult to resist that char
acterization although for several years
he has been resident of Portland,
Oregon, and not the editor OF the
Pioneer at all-writes back to the old
home paper his Endorsement of the
initiative and referendum-with which
he has become familiar since he went
to Oregon, where they have an initia-
tive and referendum provision. Tuttle
admits that he was in former days an
opponent of the system but he has
seen its advantages since he went.
and he writes the Pioneer the follow
ing Endorsement of the law:
II am glad to seee that North Da-.
kota has got a form of initiative and
referendum law. For a number of
years I used all the arguments I could
think of in the columns of the Pioneer,
against the measure. My old friend,
Mr.. Iceland, has at last won his point,
and the Grand Forks Herald, too,
should be happy. / have seen the
law work in Oregon, and have changed
my mind regarding 1t. While in all
governments in which the popular
vote is the. ruling force, the masses
will make mistakes, yet I believe they
are less likely to be dishonest than
are some of the politicians. I saw in
Portland some time ago situation
something like this-the Bell Tele-
phone company had the field all to
themselves. They were arrogant in
their treatment of the public; they
gave poor service at a high price, If
you did not like the kind of service
they gave, you could take your tele-
phone out. A new company which
controls the automatic phone applied
to the city council for a franchise.
The people admitting that while it is a
nuisance to have two telephones in a
house were crying for relief. The new
company would not bride the alder
men, or the old company bribed them
too we'll and the application for
franchise was refused, almost I'M
animously. Under the referendum,
which in Oregon applies to city, as
well as state matters. an appeal was
taken to the people, and there were
ten votes to one by the voters in
favor of the new enterprise. That
shows how under the old system it
was practically impossible for the peo-
pie to get relief that they wanted
from grasping, arrogant monopoly,
while under the referendum, the peo-
pie have got what they wanted.
''The chief advocates of the referen-
dunn law in North Dakota have hereto
fore been prohibitionists. While they
have strongly advocated the referen-
dunn and initiative on everything else
under the sun, they have not wanted
it on the liquor question. am happy
to see that now they will have it, al
though it will take four years to get
any action on the subject that will be
effective. Some people believe that
the voters of North Dakota will vote
for prohibition stronger than ever. If
SO, then they should have it. But at
least It will be a good thing to give
them chance to say what they want.
II is over seventeen years since they
mad chance to declare themselves,
and another try at it will harm no
body"

DDS CABEzAS DISTRICT
 SCENE OF ACTIVITY
Calumet & Arizona People Have Entered District and
 Developing Prospects.

MT. Victor Ritaner has just return ed from a visit to the Dos Cabezas district, in the eastern end of the county, where he has been inyestigat- ing the mineral prospects in that sec tion.
 MT. RitaIeT YVES accompanied by Geo. H. Wilson, superintendent of the Sunset Mining and Milling Com pany property. Mr. Ritaner pro- nounces the formation similar to that of the Bisbee quadrangle in it's gem eral features, and sees no reason why the Dos CabeZas district should not develop as great ore bodies, and of equal richness, as the Warren --.z- trict.
 Mir. Ritaner states that the Calumet & Arizona people have recently pur- chased a handsome property adjoin- ing the Sunset Mining and Milling Company's holdings and have com menced work with force of men on development work. At the Tiffany camp force of men is working merit orious properties which have been ola time producers of gold, silver and cop per.
 In the same district the Western
  Mining company has acquired new properties comprising the Bachelder group, the Savalls and Hensen group, the Chas. Roberts group and several others and are still reaching out for additional property with a view of having large holdings for a strong company. Rich ore bodies have been uncovered by this company, and being satisfied of the great futura of fbjS. camp, the company is making ar engagements for large and extensive development.
 The same may be said of several other companies which are at work here. All claim to have the same general characteristics which go to insure a mine and several are pro ducing ore. The outlook for the Dos Cabezas district is certainly very promising.

ARAvAIPA MINING DISTRICT.

This district is located along an i'm mense mineral bearing dike for a dis tance of i5 miles easily traced along the base of the Santa Teresa noun tains, the immense dike averaging 100 feet in width and cropping out of the ground in places over 200 feet in height. is located by different individ- uals and corporations for its, entire length, and all of the claims have good ore bodies upon them. The forma- ton through which this vein occurs is uniform, on the hanging wall DOT phyry, on the foot wall granite, both heavy country rocks extending on each side for miles.
 The vein itself is composed of ore bodies in lenses and continuous veins according to the hardness of the dike, hwich is of quartz and hematite Wa ter is encountered at a depth of 200 feet, when the Galena and carbonate ores of the upper levels give way to copper sulphide and cuprite ores.
 The average value of the high grade ores for shipping is $50 per ton. with expenses of production up to $25 per ton, leaving a profit of half the total values. Of this ore there is hun dreds of thousands ftons ready for the miner, while fabulous quantities of low grade ores are in sight ready for the reduction plant
 In places the lead ores are taken place of by copper at the surface, and on these the existence of immense bodies of low grade copper are visible from the grass roots down.
 Some shipments are made occa- sionally by the owners of claims in the district to pay for development work, as the Aravaipa mining claims have to pay their own way, and hard ly a ciai mis there that can not do it..

Yesterdays Market Was Life less and Demand For
 Stocks Light,
(By Frank J. Graf.J

Today's market was a lifeless one, more so than yesterday as there was no Boston market on account of hoIi- day. The demand for stock is light, bidders are holding of for lower prices and taking advantage of the summer prices which are about to foi- low. Denn-Arizona was in fair de- nand the greater part of the day, and at the close bids came out at s10 with no stock offered at that figure at the time. Shattuck-Arizona has been in excellent demand the entire day, bids at $30 failed to locate but very little. but on the other hand the demand was local with no demand in the east.
 Superior & Pittsburg closed weak at $17.50, and Black Mountain was offer ed at S6.25 with sales at $6.12. Ameri- can holds firm at S10. Warren is of fered at sS with no bids. Globe holds firm at s13.50 to s14. Greene Cananea closed at SIG. Tomorrow is the final day given by the company for trans fer of Greene Con. and Cananea Cen tral into Greene Cananea.

 The market today IS showing more strength, with fractional advances in the price of some of the stocks. There is no Boston market on account ot the elections. The Arizona Amalga- mated subscription has been taken up with the most remarkable enthu- siasm of any proposition lately placed before the public. The offer at $500 is to be closed on the 24th. There is quite an interest shown today in Denn and bids of $9.5O fail to bring out the stock. There is very little trading in the east, Amalgamated and Ana conda being the only ones showing any life.
