THE MEXICAN FOURTH
CELEBRATED TN DOUGLAS
Was Ushered in With a Terrific
Cannonading,

Cinco de Mayo, the Mexican Fourth
of July was ushered in Tuesday at
Douglas by terrific cannonading in
the quiet little city of Aqua Prieta
across the line 1t sounded not un-
like, and, in fact, was very fair inn
itation of the early morning hours of
the Glorious Fourth in the United
States.
The tones of the explosives ran the
whole gamut There was everything
from what seemed like the rattle of
a boys brigade of 22-calibre Smith *
Wessons, or Iver & Johnson's, bunch
of deeper voiced old muzzle loading
muskets, and every once in wnlle
aboom and a jar that would have
done credit in any of the feet week
festivities on the coast.
There is a big difference between
the passing of the Cinco and our
Fourth, which Americans on the Dor
der certainly must appreciate. The
Mexicans don't seem to be so foolish
about their noise. There is a very
noticeable business-like economy in

Out of the many evils springing
from this most unwise and unnatural

said, the corrective influence. That

good thing We discern in the escapade.
Much contemplation of the vague and
formless doctrines of Socialism of the
parlor or brotherhood variety has
brought many seemingly intelligent
men and women in this city into more
or less open relations with the real
Socialists, the persons who are seeking
by pen and speech and by all arts of
agitation and mob leadership, by re-
volution if necessary, to destroy socie-

GREAT VIADUCT
NORTHERN PACIFIC COMPLETES
COSTLY CUTOFF AND BRIDGE
AT VALLEY CITY.

Valley City Times-Record: The last
piece of steel swung into place this
afternoon and the big cutoff viaduct
stands completed, SO far as the eye
of the layman is concerned. The en-
gineer would probably detect that
deck of the bridge is not complete
and would surmise that it would take
two or three weeks to complete the
riveting. Today the bridge completes
an unbroken network of steel, con
Meeting the east and west bluffs OF
the Sheyenne to the north of the city
And the big bridge is nearly com
pleted. BY Monday it will be possible
to run trains over it, and in all prob
ability trains will begin to 60 over il
by the 18th. 1t will take two OF
three weeks to complete the riveting
several more weeks to put in the pass
ing tracks, finish the deck, etc. II
will be two months before the job is
completely finished.
The following facts about the bridge
and cutoff will be of interest:
The trestle is known as plate ant
girder viaduct.
It is 3,740 feet long.
1t stands 154 feet above low waite
mark of the river.
In its construction 1000 tons o
steel have been used.
1t cost more than 100000.
Some 100000 field riyets hold it IL

In its construction 100000 cubic
yards of earth have been moved
The highest grade is IS feet.
The great cut is mile and a half

There was smaller per cent of in
crease in the short course students
than in the four year courses. The
total attendance has nearly doubled
in three years.
Interest has been aroused at the
college in connection with the statue
that has been donated by the people
of Scandinavia to the Norwegians in
this country. One of the conditions
of the gift is that the statue must
be placed in a public place. This
makes it. possible for the college to
offer is campus as site for the
statue. Visitors in Fargo never miss
the opportunity to see the agricul-
tural college. Az large per cent of
the students at the college are of

would be very glad to have such

is quite valuable. Students are re-
