Mayor Dufs and Party Interviewed ut
Zenith City-BOOstcd Grand
Forks.

Relative to the recent visit of the
paving party to Duluth, the Duluth
Herald had the following:
"A delegation OF the city officials
OF Grand Forks visited in the city
yesterday, examining the paving and
municipal improvements in general of
the Zenith city. They spent the day
about town. The delegation consist
ed of Mayor Duis. Dr. E. j. Davidson,
Oscar knudsen, o. T. Ellestad, L. H.
Sannes and NJ. w. Day.
Mayor Duis was most compliment
tary to Duluth.
I'VE of the northwest are getting
more and more to look toward your
city as the natural distributing point
for our country, and as the center of
the main jobbing business of this
western country said the mayor
this morning. 1T has got to be so.
The coming Of the steel plant will
give you just the standing needed to
build up such business, and l am
confident that it will come.
about the crops in our section of
the country? You can say that the
seeding is practically all done all
through Dakota. What little is left
to be done is SO small as to be
hardly worthy of mention. The late
spring has caused some delay. but
never saw the soil of Dakota
work up so we'll as it has this spring.
The wheat, too, has gone into the
ground in such good shape, that in
spite OF the late spring believe
that the crops will not be harmed in
the least.
1--WE have good active little town
of our own up at Grand Forks. There
is no boom on there such as you are
anticipating here, and are already
beginning to feel the effects of. but
We are growing just the same. There
will be more building done there this
year than ever before in the history
of the city. We are going to lay
$4,000 yards Of pavement this sum-
mer. That is why we are on this
investigation tour"

LOCATE IN STATE
Many Inquiries Made-Some Want
Farms. While Others Are Seek.
ing Employment.

Inquiries continue to come in in
regard to North Dakota. Today the
postmaster had requests from two
men who live in Illinois for places
on farms; another wanted a small
farm; an Iowa man wrote as to the
opportunities for work here
A Pennsylvania bookkeeper, who
has been employed by tho same firm
for eight years. wanted a place here,
because of the better climate, and the
postmaster will be glad to put him in
communication with anyone needing
his services.
Another letter was from Texas and
said the writer had noticed the great
need of laborers in North Dakota, and
if he could obtain employment here
he would bring his entire family, con-
sisting of wife, daughter and son, and
the father and son would work by the
month, or the family would take
charge of farm. He said that they
had experience in farm work and
were not afraid to labor. His address
is Will R. Moad, r. F. D. No. 6, Den
ison. Tex. He writes an excellent let
ter.
These are only samples of some of
the inquiries which are daily arriving.

TRAINS ON ANETA LINE
New Road Will Be Placed in First
Class Condition Before Cars
Will Be Operated.

When the new Great Northern ex-
tension of the Aneta line is completed
it will be ready for immediate use. 1t
will be in first class condition from
the start and will not have to undergo
the trying out process through which
most new pieces of track pass.
AS rule when new piece of track
is laid it is not entirely ballasted, and
1t is left to the trains passing over it
to settle the track into proper condi-
ton. Section crews are kept constant
ly at work for the first fe wyears put
ting in ballast wherever 1t is needed
and tamping the track. Meantime the
trains running over the new piece are
on slow orders and thus do not make
the schedule time.
A different plan has been adopted on
the new extension. The track is being
properly ballasted and rails of heavy
steel are being laid all the way from
Casselton to Devils Lake so that it is
believed that when the new line is
completed it will be as good as an old
track. 1t will not be necessary to is
sue slow orders to the trains running
over it and they will be able to make
schedule time.

NATIONS TEACHERS
WILL MEET IN
WEST
Announcements of Big Con-
vention Have Been Sent Out
Fargo Man Director.

P. H. Knowlton, of Fargo. men,
Der of the faculty of the Fargo COL
lege. is the North Dakota state di-
rector of the National Educational
association. He has been busy dur
ing the last few days sending out an
nouncements of the coming conven-
ton. which is to be held in Los An
geles, Cal, July s to II. 1t will be
the fiftieth annual convention, and
official programs of the meeting have
been sent out.
The association completes. with
this year. its fifty years of work in
behalf Of national educational in
terests. Congress less than year
ago passed special act, incorporat-
ing the association as a national body.
The acceptance of this act by the
members of the association was pre-
vented by the necessary abandonment
of the San Francisco convention, ap-
pointed for July, 1906. This act will
come before the association for adop-
ton at the approaching meeting in
Los Angeles.
Most elaborate arrangements are
being made by the teachers and citi-
zens OF Los Angeles and California
for this great convention. All OF the
lines of the Trans-Oontinental and
Western Passenger associations, in
GLIDING all lies west of Chicago and
the Mississippi river. have granted
the usual rates and ticket conditions,
with allowance for stop-overs enroute
at all points. and extension of tickets
for return until September 10, thus
enabling teachers to spend the entire
vacation on the Pacific coast.
The association has been delayed
in completing arrangements for rail-
road rates. because the Central Pas
senger association, at it's meeting on
May s. declined to concur in the rates
rendered by the Trans-Continental
Passenger association, for reasons
which are not clearly understood. 1t
is not believed that this action is
final or that it represents the purpose
of the individual lines of that associa-
ton. This belief is confirmed by the
fact that one line, the Grand Trunk
railway, has given notice of hnde-
pendent action in making effective
the trans-continental tender of one
fare for the round trip from all points
on its line in Michigan, including De-
troit, in Canada. including Buffalo, N.
Y, and through Montreal to New En-
gland points. 1t is believed that 9TH
err lines will take similar action at an
early date.

tary Louis Campbell to an Evening
Times representative today. I'VE
started on May s last year but the cold
weather and backward season has
made an early start this year imprac-
ticable.
I'VE start with just enough men to
keep going and right here let me say
a few words about this labor situa-
ton and the shortage of the market.
The situation is critical. Men are
wanted in every line of activity
'bricklayers, painters, carpenters, dri-
vers. farmers. Everywhere We hear
the same cry. Men, More men, Ev-

OPEN SEASON FOR GRAFT.
There Will be All Kinds Of 1t Within
the Next Few M0nths-One
Way of Grating.

This is the season of beggars and
graft men. There are any number of
them throughout the country, and the
following shows how one class of
these grafters gets next to his Vic
TINS pocketbook:
Each morning he cuts from the
newspapers the list of notices of
deaths. Taking the names of the men
who have died the day before. he con-
suits the city directory and selects ex-
actly sinyllar names, with the ad-
dresses. If William Jones is in the
list of dead ones the TOUGHER" copies
from the directory the other William
Joneses that have downtown business
addresses. Then he starts in to make
his calls.
William Jones is busy at his desk
when in comes the knight of the
gentle touch. hat in hand, evidently
bowed in grief
"Mr. Jones?" he asks. Mr.. Jones
allows that is his name. 80.
"Mr. William Jones?" Again Jones
agrees.
This is strange-very strange" re-
marks the TOUGHER" referring to his
list. 81 thought you were dead; the
morning paper says So"
THAT must be another JONES'" re-
plies the victim. II am glad to as
sure you that am very much alive"
I'm very glad to find you alive,
Mr.. Jones' Aren't you glad you are
not the Jones in this dead list? Don't
you consider it worth at least quar-
ter to be alive after the papers an
nounced your death?"
And the very impertinence of the
speaker results in the business man
making a contribution.

FATHER OF BOTANY
Sweden Celebrates Two Huneh Anniversary of Man Who
Reduced Botany to Science, Carl
Ks Won Lime.

Stockholm, May 23.-All the uni
yersities and learned and scientific
societies of Sweden today held en-
ercises in celebration of the 200th an
niversary of Carl Won Lime. the faith
er of the modern science of botany.
Lime, often known as Linneus, the
latinized form of the name. was born
in the province of Smaland. May "a,
1907, and died in Upsala, January 10.
1878. He was naturalist of the
highest rank and not only was most
enthusiastic student and explorer,
but placed the knowledge of plant
life on scientific basis. His system
of nomenclature still prevails. as does
similar system for zoology.
Lime was son of Lutheran cler-
gyman and in childhood was designed
for the ministry, but he was so fas-
cinated by flowers and plants that he
made no Roadway in his theological
studies. His father was advised to
have him taught trade. and. in fact,
he was apprenticed to a shoemaker,
but, fortunately for the scientific
world. DR.. Rothnlan, physician at
WeXio, who had noticed the boys en-
thusiasm for botany. prevailed upon
the father to allow him to study med
icine and natural history. The ply
sician took young Lime into his
household, and there he studied and
worked among the plants and flowers
for some years.
Ambitious to pursue his studies the
young man went to the University OF
Upsala. He was unable to obtain en-
ployment, and while at the university
he suffered at times from actual huE-
ger. Later he attracted the favor

who obtained for him financial as
sistance.
In 1882 Lime made a botanical
tour of Lapland, mostly on foot.
journey of 1000 miles. which resulted
in his first published work on botany.
1t was so we'll received that it eX-
cited the jealousy Of DR.. Rosen. pro-
fessor of botany in the university fac
ulty. who had him dismissed from the
university on some shallow preteXt
The unfortunate young man then jour-
neyed to northern Sweden, where he
assayed metals and did odd jobs a:
the mines. His steps next led him
to Holland, where he pursued his
studies and completed several of his
most important botanical works. He
was fortunate in finding a wealthy
patron, who sent him to England to
study the gardens and herbariums
there, and where he made the &C.

anists. He visited Paris, also, and
learned the theories and methods Of
the French gardeners.
Returning finally to Sweden he es-
tablished himself in Stockholm as a
physician. His ability was almost inn
mediately recognized and he was
elected president of the Royal acad-
envy. The chair of botany in the fac
ulty at Upsala was the height of his
ambition, and he attained it in 1741,
upon the retirement of his old enemy.
Professor Rosen. He soon made that
sity of Sweden famous throughout the
entire world and students came from
all countries to receive his instruc-
ton. Distinctions of all kinds were
bestowed upon him by foreign ma
tons, as we'll as his own. He was
elevated to the rank of noble and
took the title of Won Lime. All the
learned bodies OF Europe elected him
to membership and he received invi-
tations from many of the great uni
versities to join their faculties.
1t was at the university at Upsala
where the most notable of today's OBJ
servances was held in honor of the
great botanist's 200th anniversary.
The exercises were participated in by
representatives of many of the uni
versities and scientific societies
throughout the world. including the
Linnaean Society of London, the
Smithsonian institution at Washing
ton and Shaw's botanical gardens at
St. Louis. During the day the Lime
monument in the cathedral Of Up
sala. where the famous botanist was
buried, was piled high with floral trib-
utes sent by the leading scientific
societies OF the world.

THROWN FROM HIS BUGGY
David Clairmont Suffers Injury When
Horse Becomes Unmanageable-
Sustained Scalp Wound.

David Clairmont of Walhalla was
injured several days ago in runa-
way accident. He was driving through
Walhalla, when the horse became un-
manageable. The animal made run
for an open barn door, but Just in
front of the barn made sudden turn,
precipitating Mr.. Clairmont to the
ground. The unfortunate man was
thrown against the barn, and striking

New York, Sept. 23.-John d. Rock
efeller, geniug extraordinary of the
gigantic Standard Oil trust, will be
forced to take the witness stand and un-
der oath divulge certain secrets of the
combinations history, which he, better
than any other, is able to render ac-
curately. Other leading figures in the
trust, who, it WAS expected, would es-
cape the ordeal, also will be called to
