N.D.AT Big RIFLE SHOOT
squad Of State MiIitiamen May BE
Sent to National Shoot at Port
Clinton, Aug. 19 to Sept. /.

State militiamen are looking for
ward with much interest to the COM
ing state eneampment. No official
announcement. as to Just when this
would be held, has yet been made
butatts aRasrstQ that laval be-
gin at Devils Lake about July 10 and
continue for ten days Col E. c..
Gearey, jr. has received word from Ad-
jutant General Poole that he has been
unable to definitely fix the date of the
encampment as vet, owing to the fact
that he has not received word from the
federal government as to when the ba-
tallion Of the Sixth u. S. infantry
which is to participate in the encamp-
ment could be present 1t is thought
the matter will be finally settled with
in few days
Plans are being made to send a team
form the North Dakota National guard
to take part in the national rifle shoot
ing match which will be held at Port
Clinton, o., Aug. 10 to Sept i.
If a sufficient amount Of money can
be secured q team will be sent which
win consist of twelve men, three Off
GERS and three alternates.
The matches to be contested in this
suit will be the company match, the
presidents match, the Ohio state rifle
association match and the national
match. One team is to be sent from
each state in the union, one from the
District of Columbia and the army.
navy and marine corps of the United
States are to be represented.
Rifle shooting will begin next week
at the Hillsboro range and continue
during the summer, and the local Of
ficers of the national guard have been

reports, transmitting balances, etc. He
also insisted that division headquart-
ers should be established i'm many large
cities, to which even higher grades of
post offices could report in a similar
manner, thus detaching them from.
their sumberson relations with the.
department. Similar arrangements
should be made as to the appointment
and discipline of the thirty eight thou
sand rural carriers who are now handl-
ed and disciplined mostly in Washing
ton. In short, decentralization is the
crying need of the department at
Washington where the congestion Of
business has reached q point y abs0-
utely fatal to efficiency. AS Captain
Castle observed, no railroad could be
successfully managed without its divis-
ion headquarters, with superintendents
and assistants having knowledge of
details and power to act. Carrying the.
railroad parallel little further, the
speaker advocated the appointment of
| a general manager of the department
having a permanent tenure of Office. to
stand next to the postmaster general in
the capacity of advisor.
All this is good deal more to the
purpose than the halting and somewhat
platitudinous counsel dispensed by
Secretary Cortelyou at the post Office
dinner. 1t is undeniable true that
patronage dispensed on the old sordid
lines Is a curse to any administration
or any party" but what radical differ
ence is there between "the old sordid
lines" and the methods at present in
vogue for the selection of postmasters2
AS Captain Castle put the case, in his
blunt practical way: I'VE have here
| the largest business enterprise on
earth; handling more money and en-
ploying more men than all other feder-
al departments combined; reaching
every town and neighborhood, touching
i every man. woman and child in the
| country; affecting. every business man
1 at vital points and threatening many
lines of industry with discrimination
/ or competition-yet what does investi-
| cation disclose? This purely business
enterprise is organized and, with only
a single exception, is administered in
i absolute disregard of all correct busi-
/ ness principles" If that be state
ment of fact, and everybody familiar
| with the subject will admit that it is,
Mr.. Cortelyou's plea for reasonable
application of the principles of reform
| to the post office department. must be
regarded as somewhat weak evasion
Of the plain dictates Of necessity. The
| late Representative Loud of California,
himself former official of the post
Office department, was the only man In

thorough reform of the entire system.
The commission which Is now at work
on the investigation of the postal sery-
ice is hardly likely to propose plains
for its reorganization on the lines sug
gested by Captain Castle. But should
it, as perhaps probable, incline 10 the
temporizing policy apparently favored
by Mr.. cortelyou, the men who listened

Girls as Smart as Boys.

President Seelye OF: Smith college
says that not every girl should go to
college, and does not recommend the
college education for those who are
stupid or slow and have little or no
ambition to be wiser than they are.
The wonder is that such girls could
eyer get ready for college in the way
Of passing the examination. He says
that in the secondary schools one often
finds girls as intelligent as boys, a
statement so obvious that one won
ders that President Seelye should
make it. One OF the advantages he
names as resulting from college ed
hcation is the power 1t gives a girl to
develop desirable social traits

WONDER TOWER
Gigantic Structure Erected by Nikol;
Tslsa, to Comm With the
Planet Mars, is to be Sold
by the Sheriff

New York. June i5.-because nj
kola Telsa, propounder of a theory OF
communication with Mars, has faile
to satisfy a judgment of $1.lOS.20, the
mysterious tower at Wardenclffe, l.
l.. has been advertised for sale by
Sheriff Wells of Suffolk county. Mr.
Telsa has expended a fortune on his
electrical experimental works in War
dencliffe whose purpose he has Kept
to himself Only his closest friends
were permitted to get within seeing
distance of his wonder tower as the
huge structure of steel and cement
was called. and no one appears Ia
know exactly what It was intended
for That 1t was to be used to dem
Onstrate his theory of communicative
with the Martians Is popularly be
lieved.
The judgment is held by Dr. James
W. Warden. The security is the 200
acres owned by Telsa. upon which
stands the tower. which Is sunk into
the ground distance Of $50 feet and
is $50 feet in height, according to
Telsa's statements to his friends. The
tower has great mushroom top, from
which tlere used to be binding

years ago.
MIR. Telsa, when seen at the Wal

was an old one. the judgment growing

Unsatisfactory and viii Fight

Guthrie. O. r., June l3 - Practically
every candidate who participated in 1t
seems to be sore on the primary sys-
tenn, and number Of prominent dem.
ocrats here have openly stated that
II the constitutional convention

tuition opened up again. one Of the
things against which they would make
a vigorous fight would be the manda.
tory primary provision.
Aside from the question Of expense.
which has hit all Of the candidates
very hard. the complaint Is made that
the places on the ticket are punched
too much to bring the best results all
over the state. For example. Musko
gee seems likely tO have the candi
dates for both governor and United
States senator. which is rather too
big a portion to give to any one town
In the same way. Oklahoma City gets
at least three places on the state tick
IT and possibly four. In addition to
having the congressional nominee In
the Second district This sort OF a
distribution necessarily makes some
OF the sections which are not repre-
sentcd at all little bit sore.
Another thing which some of the
candidates objected to very seriously
was the placing of the names on the
ballot in alphabetical order. II is
claimed that this order should have
been determined by lot. and that II
worked decided injustice to the men
whose initials were well down In the
