been subscribed. The mill will start
with ten knitting machines and EN-

secured is large enough for adding
more machinery, which will doubt

an expert in the knitting business,
it seems that no element for success
is wanting in the new enterprise.

engaged quarters over the Farmers

a valuable acquisition to Beach.
They have been taking an invoice

announcement, but will have some
thing to say to the public in

An Appropriate Memorial For
the BattIeship North Dakota

The State whose name is given
to battle ship is honored by the
selection of her name for the great
battleship North Dakota, the fin
est of our navy, which will go into
commission about the first Of the
year. It is the universal custom
that some recognition Of such hon
or be shown by the presentation
of a suitable memorial which shall
become a part of the furnishings
of the ship. It is impossible to use
state funds for this purpose, and,
as it is evident that such a gift, to
have real value, and to fulfil its
proper purpose, should be made by
the people generally, the governor
of the state has appointed COM
mittee to select a proper memorial
and arrange for the collection of
large number Of small subscrip-
tions to defray the costs. The COM
mite named consists Of the fol-
lowing representative gentlemen:
Hon. E. Y. Sarles, Hon. Frank
White. Hon. Roger Allin. Hon.
w. A. Scott, Hon. Geo. B. Win
shin. Hon. Martin Jacobson. Hon.
John Bruegger, Hon. F. L. Thomp-
son. Hon. Frank Lish.
This committee has organized
for work, has decided tentatively
on a silver service as the best gift
that can be made, has asked for
designs. and has undertaken to raise
a fund of $4,000 which will pay
for a present of value and beauty
in keeping with the magnifcance
of the vessel and the dignity of
the state.
For convenience of collection the
state is being divided into a num-
Der of small districts, and every
person will have an opportunity
to contribute his mite. Subscrlp.
tion lists will soon be out, and re.
ceipts will be issued from the
central office for all sums received.
In addition to this the name OF
all donators will be engrossed
and the sheets will be bound to be.
come a part of the permanent re-
cords of the ship.

Electric Light Plant Wanted

There is fine opening in Beach
for an electric light plant and we
confidently expect that somebody
gifted with the right sort of enter
prise and few dollars will come
along before the first of January
and seize the opportunity to make
a "killing.' Beach is one of the
best, if not the very best, towns
of its size along the Northern Pa
cific road, is growing rapidly and
needs better lighting system than
the dangerous gasoline contraptions
now in general use. Seven and
one half per cent is too high a
premium to pay for insurance, and
gasoline furnishes one Of the
strongest excuses for such an i'm
post.

good merchants. good schools and
good people to settle among you,
and this cannot be done unless
you spend your money at home.

Rosenberg's move was prompted
by the insanitary condition of

of the water supply and resultant
epidemic. His paper met with a
generous and hearty response from
our business men, who commended
Mr.. Rosenberg for taking the
initiative in the matter.

at the local papers you can safely

are of about as much value to a
