POTATOES PAY FOR FARM
Clay County Farmer Won
Wealth Through Raising Tu-
bers in Ten Years.

Moorhead Independent: A Clay
county farmer, who lives only short
distance from Moorhead, made the
final payment Monday morning on his
farm which he bought 10 years ago at
$35 an acre and he went home carry
ing with him the document of salts
faction which made him clear with
the world. He has paid for the farm,
reputed to be one of the best in the
country, solely out of his potato
crops. Regularly, spring and fall,
he has always been reasonably certain
of having sufficient receipts from po-
tato shipments to meet his deferred
payments on his land contract.
On Monday he received check for
81, ,102 covering one sale of potatoes at
the rate of rs cents bushel and out
of that check he made the last pay
ment on the home farm. Out of his
grain, stock, poultry and miscellane-
Gus produce he has maintained his
family and made numerous improve
ments on his now well equipped
place.

John Westberg Dead.

Cyrus Citizen:-The sad intelli-
gence was received here today an
nouncing the death of John Westberg,
Sr. of Swan Lake. This is the second
member in the Westberg home who
has, within very short lapse of time,
taken leave of kind friends on this
terrestrial sphere and departed to the
great beyond. Last week we publish
ed the notice of the death of the wife
of John Westberg Jr., and to-day we
are again called to chronicle the pass
ing of his father.
The deceased was eighty one years
of age. He had enjoyed good home
with his SON during his declining
years, who cared for him tenderly and
did all in his power to make him feel
happy and contented. During the
last two years of his existence his
health was so feeble that he was
utterly helpless and his demise was
not unexpected.

ROBERT L. KEMPLE
Last Number of Lecture Course
on April 5th.

The last number of the lecture
course will be lecture by Robert L..
Kemple, who will be here on Monday
evening, April 9th. 1t is expected
that this will be one of the most in
teresting numbers of the course as
Mr.. Kemple is well known here per-
sonally from having taught two terms
in the summer school, and his many
friends and acquaintances will be
pleased to hear him as lecturer. He
has received many complimentary
notices elsewhere, a few of which are
here given:-
Peterson, Iowa: R. L. Kemple gave
one of his popular lectures in the opera
house here October 26, 1907. He held
the audience spellbound for one hour
and forty minutes. AS the lecture
proceeded the enthusiasm of the audi
tors became intense, while the close
left the people in state of mind an
xious for continuation of his words.
AS an entertainer and an expounder
of wholesome and logical truths, Mr..
Kemple stands highest. His manner
is pleasing, his language clear, and
reaches the hearts of all. I have ar
ranged with Mr.. Kemple for a return
lecture in February.-A. M. Russell.
R. L. Kemple's address at the Grand
opera house last night was one of the
best addresses ever delivered in our
city. He says practical things in a
practical way. He truly knows the
american boy" He stirred deeply
the hearts ofshis auditors. He held
the vast audience spellbound, and at.
the close they broke forth in long,
thunderous applause. Watertown, (S.
d. Daily Public Opinion.
Robert Kenple gave his lecture,
"The American Boy,' to large and
appreciative audience at the Congre-
gational church last Friday evening.
The lecture contained many beautiful
and ennobling thoughts, well calcu-
lated to inspire his hearers to higher
ideals, and these were interspersed
with flashes of humor and witty stories
that were very entertaining. The
Kemple lecture was one of the best
things we have had in the entertain.
ment line this season.-The Washta

Chief Engineer al Panamle.

According to Lieutenant Colonel
George w Goethals, chairman of the
isthmian canal commission and chief
engineer of construction, vessels will
sail through the canal by 1915. The
engineers who accompanied Mr.. Taft
to the isthmus having decided that the
Gatun dam was safe and in favor OF
a lock system, work will now be
pushed hard. The decision Of the Wis

TO FEDERAL BENCH.
Judge Brown Reported as Sue
cessor to Purdy.

Wednesdays st. Paul Dispatch con-
tanned the following news from Wash
ington:-
t'Calyin T. brown, of the Minnesota
supreme court, will be named to sue
ceed Milton D. Purdy as Judge on
the federal bench in. Minnesota, un-
less President Taft changes the plans
that he has made in this regard.
"Asdecision to appoint Judge Brown
to the place now temporarily filled
by Mr.. Purdy is understood to have
been reached at conference between
President Taft and Senator Nelson to-
day. #
"The announcement of the appoint
ment is expected almost any mo-
ment."
Judge Browns many friends here
certainly hope that he may be ap-
pointed to this position, for which he
has shown himself SO well fitted. The
position was formerly held by Judge
Lochren, and after his death, Presi-
dent Roosevelt appointed Milton D..
Purdy, but the senate failed to confirm
the nomination, as Senator Nelson
wishes to have Mr.. Hale, of Minne-
apols appointed. Thus the matter
has rested until Pres. Roosevelt's term
expired. when Pres. Taft reappointed
Mr.. Purdy with the understanding
that the appointment was only tenn
porary.
Morris tribune., 1909-03-27

The senate railroad committee
seems to have missed connections at
headquarters this year, and the way it
is reporting out railroad measures is
surprising everyone, and in some in
stances has proved embarrassing even
to the friends of railroad reform. This
is especially true Of the eastman long
distance tariff bill. A good many peo-
pie think that no further rate legisla-
ton should be adopted until after the
rate cases at present in litigation are
settled. This view is held by the rail-
road and warehouse commissioners,
and is shared by Ex- Attorney General
Young and Mr.. O'Brien, who have
charge of the suits to which I have
referred. They were in conference
the other day with Senator eastman
but failed to induceShim to consent to
forego the consideration of his bill,
which is now on general orders. He
is said to believe that his bill if pass
ed, would put an end to litigation and
would result in the putting in force
of local railroad rates which would
at least be equitable and would not
permit discrimination between local
tiles as at present. One of Mr.. Cash
mans principal objects is to get such
rates to Duluth as will give the State
the natural advantages proximity to
the great Lakes affords. This ad-
vantage is now denied interior towns
and stations by rates which discrimi-
nate in favor of st. Paul and Miune-
apolis.

The house committee thought bet
ter of this and reported the bill max
ing the ratio 40 per cent. Then Rep
resentatlves Stuart sought to classify
property and proposed an amendment
with 40 per cent valuation to apply
to farms, 80 per cent valuation for
city property and a so per cent valua-
ton for iron lands. The tonnage tax
people took alarm at this as an insid-
ious attempt to defeat the tonnage
tax bill by 20 per cent increase in
valuation and successfully fought
against it. Then 80 per cent val
uation was proposed. 1t was defeat
ed. Then the bill itself, with 40 per
cent valuation, was recommended for
indefinite postponement. The house
then woke up to the real situation and
saw that it had gone too far. Some
thing had to be done if the tax COM
mission really intends to assess prop
erty at its actual value. so the mo-
tion to indefinitely postpone was re-
considered and possibly latter some
definite action will be taken looking
to the establishment of some definite
ratio of assessment of value.

At recent meeting of the Summit

was offered requiring all parties inter-
ested in Cemetery Lots (and who
have not paid for same) to call on or

thor of the bill, claims to have in view.
If this is all he wants, and if the rep
resentatives of the city concede such
privilege would be in the public in
terest, there oughn't to be any great
difficulty about them getting together.
Mr.. Nolan is rather unfortunate in
some of his associates in urging the
measures. When those familiar with
the personnel of the legislature see
L. H. johnson, John Lennon and
Frank Nimocks agreeing to support a
bill ostensibly designed to regulate
great twin city corporation they will
be pardoned if they begin to prick up
their ears.
The liquor people propose to make
a dicker with the temperance advo-
Gates. If these latter will consent to
a bill extending the closing hour of
saloons to twelve o'clock the contin-
gent in the legislature under COM
mand Of Representative Selb, will sup
port bill closing saloons in country
towns at ten o'clock. There are times
when it pays the Jews to have no
dealings with the Samaritans.
While the twelve O'Clock lid failed
to secure the support of majority
of the members of the house the club
bill passed by narrow majority. This
bill grants to municipal authorities the
right to permit social clubs to sell
liquor without paying license. The
vote was so close that the fate of the
measure depended on the vote of one
man. Pressure was brought to bear
on Representative Fitzpatrick of Ohm
stead county to induce him to change
the vote he had cast against it to one
in its favor. A singular circumstance
is that Representative Adams, who
has acted as the leader of the tenn
perance contingent in the house, voted
for this bill, which permits the sale
of intoxicants in clubs in all cities in
the State without any restriction
whatever. His associates in the tenn
perance party bitterly resent his at
titude on this measure, which they
regard as peculiarly vicious one.
