Water Power Grants In Norway.

Water Power Grants In Norway.
Norway's system Of protecting the
state while granting water power
privileges to private operators is OF
interest at this time. By terms OF
recent legislation passed by the Nor.
wcgian parliament all water power
privileges exceeding 1000 horsepower
revert to the nation at the expiration
Of the concession period, which ran
not be for more than eighty years.
Native and foreign companies are
placed upon the same footing In all
respects.
Strong attempts to make the ex-
emption cover all under 5000 horse
power failed. because the sentiment
of the country opposed the giving Of
valuable interests to private monopo-
lists. All regulating works connected
with the water power and the power
stations with their equipment become
the property Of the state when the
concession expires. and all. other prop
erty connected with the working OF
the water power plant may be ac-
quired by eminent domain proceed
ings. or the state may demand the re-
moval of the same within a given Pc
riod. Conditions in Norway are IA
vorable to industries built up on water
power. and the best available sites
have been taken up rapidly of late.
especially by foreign companies.

A number of persons have been
mentioned as being good guber.
material timber and this week
another has been mentioned, one
who is we'll known in this county.
The following is taken from the
Fessenden Free Press: W. note
by some of Our exchanges that T.
l.. Beiseker of Fessenden is being
mentioned as a candidate for gov.
ernor. These announcements CON-
ing from outside of his home town
mean much and indicate that the
well-known Fessepden man is even
better known and more popular
throughout the state than local
people realize. We do not know
whether MI. Beiseker would think
Of becoming a candidate or not,
but If he could be induced to
~
make the run, he would make a
strong candidate. He is wealthy
enough to be independent and
would be free from any of those
influences that are a temptation to
q man Of small means. His views
on public questions are decided
and he takes an active interest
upon every public issue. Wells
county has never asked or received
much in the way of state Offices
and the county is entitled to re-
cognition.

1t is said that it is more profit
able for the farmers to keep their
stock until they are three or four
years old before shipping them to
the stock markets in the east.
There is no especial demand for
calves and yearlings and the price
is low. There is plenty Of feed
and grass on which to raise them
and the market for beef is good.
