Commissioners Gather Data to Aid
Lottery Winners.

Spokane, Wash. Dec. 7--oflcial
announcement is made by Superinten-
dent Witten, who had charge OF the
drawings for Indian reservation lands
in eastern Washington, northern Ida
no, western Montana and South Da-
kota last fall, that those who hold
numbers for homesteads will be aided
in selecting land by estimates of values
to be furnished by the department of
the interior.
Mr.. Witten says, in q letter to Il.
9. Monroe, secretary of the Spokane
chamber of commerce, that, although
persons holding numbers are at liberty
to inspect and examine the lands in
the reservations for which their mum :
bers are assigned, not reserved or al
lotted to the Indians, this will not be
necessary before they present their
filings, as they may with reasonable
safety be guided by the estimates of
the three commissioners who have
classified and appraised the land.
Secretary Monroe says that more
than rs per cent of those who secured
numbers for homesteads of 100 acres
each at the drawings last summer win
make filings. Some of the homesteads
are worth from $4,000 to $4,000 for
their timber alone.

WHISKY PROBLEM
BOTHERING TAFT

Washington, Dec. 7.---SpealSer Cam
non and President Taft went over some
important questions today, although
the speaker did not remain long. The
speaker followed his custom of NOT
divulging the subject of his talk with
the president
THE president is studying what is
whisky?" said an inquisitive newspaper
man. Did you talk with him ON that
subjectg
lord, my boy, it has been so long
since had any of that stuff in my
stomach I couldn't tell whether it was
aged In charred barrel, or JUST turn
ed out fresh from the distillery."
The whisky problem liz the worst
confronting the president at present,
and he is trying to get it Off his hands.
1t has been pending for months, hav-
ing once been decided by President
Roosevelt. Mr. Taft gave rehearing
to the interests not satisfied with the
first decision, and this hearing was
held before Commissioner General
Bowers, OF the department OF. justice.
Testimony taken made 400 printed
pages, and the president is wading
through all this page by page. So
licitor General Bowers held that all
whisky made from grain and contain
ing the usual ingredients should be
labeled whisky" under the pure food
law.
This is objected to by some Of the
whisky interests and by DR.. Wiley, of
the pure food bureau.

Dickinson Man on Mandan.

Dickinson, N. D., Dec. 6.-To The
Forum: After being a subscriber to
your paper for a long time, of course
have noticed that you are in favor of
law enforcement, no matter what kind
of law it is. AS / am in favor of the
same, / think it is not more than right
that you should enlighten your read
ers as to where and how the law is
enforced.
The law that is mostly talked of as
being rigidlv enforced in our state, is
the prohibition law, liked by many,
but cursed and disliked by q whole
lot more don't want to write about
the different bad and good points of
the said law, but / wanted to point
out the way the said law is enforced
in the different cities and towns in
our state.
A snort time ago was at Mandan,
a city not more than five miles from
the capital CITY,, where our much
talked Of governor resides, and was
very much surprised at being able
to get a drink of beer in most any
place that looked like q pool hall or
soft drink parlor. At the same time
was In several other places in Nor
ton county and in nearly every place
was able to get beer.
Now it is always said that our gov
ernor is out for law enforcement. It
looks like that alright here in Dick
inson, but-I believe that this with
a very few other cities is the only
place where it is enforced. The peo-
Pile in the above named place said that
they think the governor has II in for
Stark county, or Dickinson principal
y. I think that this is true, but it
does not serve much to the credit Of
our governor, for IL he wants law en-
he should have it enforced
all over the state alike, and then he
would create more satisfaction with
the voters over the, state.
Here in Dickinson many people even
have their residences searched, while
In otner places the blind pigs are not
even looked at.
If our governor is so rigidly for
law enforcemnt, he wants to think Of

Bowman Pioneer; The remains of
a son of Mr.. and Mrs. B. Haggett were
inferred at the Bowman cemetery on
Friday of last week, the services being
conducted by Rev. Cooke, of the Meth

The circumstances surrounding the
death of the boy are very sad. Two
boys, who had been out hunting. re-
turned to the Haggett home. One had
a rife and the other a shotgun. The
cartridge was removed from the rife
but the shotgun, still loaded, was stood
up against the wall. The Haggett boy

years in some manner set off the shot
gun, the charge killing the Haggett

Celebration a Forest Rinar.

Forest River, N. d.. Dec. THE
Presbyterian church Of Forest River
has Just brought 20 a close the OBJ
servance of the thirteenth anniversary
of its establishment, special services
being held to commemorate the event.
The most important feature of the
anniversary celebration was the hold
Ing OF a large social gathering at
which programme of music, recita-
tons and "reminiscences of the early
days were given. Letters were also
read from former pastors and mem
oers, and the poster, Rev B. S. Bates,
gave a brief historical resume of
Presbyterianism In the state and OF
the Forest River society.
Only three Presbyterian churches in
the state antedate the Forest River
church in the year of It's organization,
viz: Bismarck, 1873; Fargo; 1877;
Pembina. 1873. In 1879 seven churches
of this denomination were organized
within the boundaries of the present
state OF North Dakota, being Forest
River. Turtle River. Elm River,
jamestown, CasseHon, WheatIand and
Grand Forks. The exact date of or
ganization at Forest River was April
8, 1879, Revs. d. S. Lyon and f. w.
Iddings being the ministers who per-
fected 1t. The first services were
held by these men in November, 1878,
at the home Of J. B. Sprague. Mr..
Lyon was then synodical missionary
and Mr.. Iddings was stationed at
Grand Forks,
Among the ministers who have
served the church in the thirty years
Of it's history are the following: F.

SAYS JAPANESE
ARE LEAVING
CONSUL-GENERAL GIVES FIG
URES OF MOVEMENTS FROM
THIS COUNTRY.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2S.-Figures
were given out by the Japanese Con-
sul-General, Matsuzo Nagai, yesterday
showing movements Of Japanese to
and from the United States and Ha-
wall, during eighteen months, ending
June Goth last.
| According to the figures, which were
furnished to the Consul-General by
the Foreign Office of the Japanese
Government, there was during the
eighteen months an excess of arrivals
of Japanese in Japan from the United
States of 2464, and from Hawaii or
2544, making a total decrease of the
Japanese population in American ter
ritory, if the number of births were
not counted, of 5008.
The report calls attention to the
1act that the figures do not necessari-
ly agree with compilations made by
the United States Government for the
same periods, due to the fact that ar
rivals in United States territory do
not always agree as to the months
with the Japanese records OF depart
ure, and also that the Japanese tables
do not cover travellers who enter and
depart from the eastern ports of the
United States.
