The North Dakota Railway company.

pose of building line of railroad
from the Pembina Portland Cement
company's plant in Olga township, to
Edinburgh, distance Of twenty-one

the Great Northern at Edinburgh.
The road is a novelty in one respect;
that every dollar of the stock is held
by farmers along the line of the road,
and that before rail has been laid.
assurances have been given of freight
and passenger traffic to the amount
of 100000 annually. This. it is cal

There is possibility that the farm

summer running through Harvey
township in Cavalier county to con-
nection with the Great Northern ut

the Edinburgh line.

BULK OF WHEAT CROP.

Farmers west of the Missouri river
have scarcely begun to haul their last
years crop of wheat to market, &C.

On account Of the cold weather
and storms 1t has been impossible to
haul much grain to MARKET said Mr..
Peterson in discussing the situation
in :he vicinity of his home MANY
Of the, farmers, like myself, have been
hevoting their attention to getting rid
Of their flax and have left their wheat
in their granaries. I still have about
200 bushels of flax to haul before
will begin hauling wheat"
MIR. Peterson states that while
there has been shortage of cars, this
has not occasioned any Inconvenience
ior the farmers, as they were able to
sell all the wheat they could haul to
market. The nearest railroad town
l, MIR. Peterson's farm is Olmond.
Although this town was started only
last June: it already has a 100000
hushel elevator. lumber yard and
'hree stores, and it is prospecting.
When the elevator at Olmond was
11ill the farmers In the vicinity began
hauling their wheat to Simms. six
miles distant. where there was still
plenty of room in the elevators for all
the grain they had to sell.

JEWS TAKE TO THE FARM.

at Beginning Of Third Year.
The Jewish problem is beginning
TO solve itself. The practically of
Zionism is to all indications still far
distant, but those who treat the Jew
ish problem as an economic one are
already seeing results.
The Jewish colony which was start
ed near Ashley, N. D., in September,
1905, is prospecting wonderfully. At
that time twelve families moved to
the colony, and since then 1t has
grown rapidly. There are now thir-
1y-two Minneapolis families there who
have taken homesteads. They are
proving daily that the Jews make as
good farmers as students, vindicating
that they are willing workers, and
many of them would have long been
'',illers of the soil" had they but had
|he opportunity.
Louis Wolfson and 1sidor Auerbach
were sent to New York city as dele
sates from this colony in order to OBJ
rain aid from the Jewish and Indus
trial Aid society, whose headquarters
are there.
They remained there three weeks
negotiating with the business commit.
rec. and are to be congratulated on
their success. They obtained $4,000
70 help the colony and the settlers.
Last spring they found it difficult

hampered, not having sufficient ma
chinery and horses. But next spring
rhey will be fully equipped.
They have a shOchet there, and
services were held during the holi-
days last fall.

help of any kind, broke in twenty-six

Similar colonies have been started
in Canada, Wisconsin and North and
South Dakota. At present there are
about 1000 Jewish farmers in the
United States. Many of the Jews who
are packed into the New York ghetto
are beginning to stir. They expressed
their intentions of coming out West
and settling on homesteads.

son on charge of maintaining a

warrant was sworn out and search
of the premises mades but no intoxi'
eating liquors were found. He was
released on his own recognizance. the
case to be heard Monday. An injunc.
ton was placed on the hotel cafe.
The complaint was made by three
women, dining room girls in Pattsr
sons hotel, who claim to have suffl-
cient evidence to convict him, and
who have furnished the names of a
number of persons as witnesses.
These are thought to include a num-
Der of legislators who have been
boarding at the house.
Patterson has just announced his
candidacy for mayor, and on the re-
quest of the states attorney Gov.
Burke has designated Assistant At
torney General Miller to assist in the
prosecution of the case.
In addition to this suit the women
began suit against Patterson to re-
cover $141 in wages which they say
are past due.
Patterson is commonly known as
the city political boss, and was tar
get for several bills in the legislature
to put him out of Office, he being q

he is the advocate Of open violation
of the prohibition law. and is Indirect

pigs in the city. This probably will
prove to be the opening gun in hot
