and will have largely to do with
fixing the position of Beach on the
map of this broad land and cause
the residents Of the so-called grain
belts to sit up and take notice.
This is not wind nor theory-it is
an actual condition, but it lacks a
lot of being deplorable.
The grain of the Golden Valley
is just beginning to move, and
Judging from the warehouse re-
ceipts so far, we are warranted
in the claim that nearly. if not
quite, two millions of bushels
of wheat. barley, flax and oats
will be paid for in Beach this
season. This, by the way, in
cludes the receipts of the two ele-
vators at Chama, the checks of
which are paid here.
Last year 100000 bushels of
grain were taken in here. So far
this season (and as we have stated,
the movement has merely com.
menced), the elevators here
the Thorpe, Minnesota & Western,
Farmers, Lytle, Golden Valley and
Chama = have received 1877, 900
bushels of the four grains. As
yet, but little oats is being brought
in, the farmers holding off for
better prices, storing the crop every
way that they can, many of them
using their houses for granaries.
Mr.. E.. D. Logan, who owns a
farm six miles north of town, has
already stored 1000 bushels of
oats, and the farmers generally are
pursuing the same tactics.
The wheat this year is excep.
tionally fine in quality and is very
heavy, running pounds in excess of
the measured bushel, or enough
to more than make up for all doc
ages. By the way, we fail to un-
derstand why the farmer should be
docked on his wheat because it
has flax in it. The flax is the
more valuable commodity and the
cost Of separating it from the
wheat, about one-half cent per
bushel. would not appear to be a
good basis for dock. People who
find pearls in their oysters do not
usually withhold any portion of the
restaurant mans pay, but pocket
their find without murmur.

To 3 5 come a City,;
Be 3 n to Advance
Electors To Have Opportunity in
the Near Future to Vote Upon
the Proposition to Incorporate

VIM. Rosenberg, to whom is
due the credit for conceiving the
project and pushing it, was around
among the citizens this week
with a petition to the board of
village trustees, asking that
special election be called to submit
to the voters the proposition of
Incorporating as city.
The place was Incorporated
about two years ago as village,
the number of inhabi ants not be-
ing sufficient to do anything more
in that line at the time.
Now, however, the situation is
different. We have the popula-
tion and the crying need for a
better form of municipal govern
ment, and the advantages that go
with it.
Mr.. Rosenberg's effort met
with signal success, the petition
being universally signed. indicat-
ing that our people are of one
mind on the subject. The petition
has been filed already with the
clerk, and at the next regular
] meeting, next Tuesday evening,
the matter will come up and be
acted upon. There is no doubt
that such an election will be
ordered. for the members of the
board have expressed themselves
favorably.
Beach will soon be out of it's
creeping clothes and take the
position to which it is entitled
by reason of its growth. push and
prosperity. 1t is destined to be
the metropolis of the western half
of the state at no distant date.

The appointment came entirely unsolicited on his part, and, as is usual in such cases is all right He introduced the original pio- oneer home bill and says he was impe,l- ed to do so by seeing such men as Captain Boyd, one of the diseoverers of the great United Verde mine, and the late Major Pitkin, brother of Ex- Governor Pitkin of Colorado, both Ari- zona pioneers, die in county poor house. MT. Doran thinks that the home will have over one hundred in mates, as soon as it is constructed, and he will urge upon the board of control it's immediate construction as soon as suitable site can be secured The ap- propriation for construction is $25,00O, with $l5,000 a year for maintenance.

LONDON, March 23.-The dramatic confession of cabinet ministers in the recent debate in the house of commons that Germany had caught the British admiralty mapping and stolen march on this country by so cxpediting con struction of Dreadnaughts that Great Britain would have little, if any, mar gin in the number of new ships in l9ll- 1912, has been followed by something like panic throughout the United Kingdom.
 There is no doubt that if Premier Asquith at this time would appeal to the electorate. little would be left of the present radical party in the house of commons.
 The direct vote of censure, which A. J. Balfour, leader of the opposition, will move against the government will bring to issue as to whether four or eight Drcadnaughts should be definitely included in this years naval program squarely before parliament, although there is a chance that the national out cry will cause Premier Asduith to yield and give definite assurances that the four "phsntom Dreadnaughts will be constructed this year in addition to the ones provided for in the estimates.
 All the adherents of big navy want this promise and have started cara paigning the length and breadth of the country H support of it. Tie Navy League, which represents no psrtieulnr party, is in ths forefront of this H,ovs- neHt.

TOWN IS BOUND TO ANNUITY
Saves s180 Year by Death of One
 Beneficiary

WORCESTER, Mass, March 23.-- Mrs. Lyman Jennings, 80, is dead at Orange, and the town of Athol by her death will save $lS0 year.
 In 1876, when Athol was greatly in need of money, Lyman Jennings, a poor cooper, earning only $l.5O day, lent the town 5000 under an agree ment that Jennings was to receive $40o year till he died, his wife $lSo year till she died, and her daughter, now Mrs. Addie Stratton, $120 year as long as she lives.
 From the date of the loan to the opening of this year the town had paid $l6. 200 for the original 5000.
