Laying The Corner Stone
OF Girls D0rmit0ry

NJ. c. Vidal has succeeded
in interesting in his company's
Fruit land proposition in the
famous Bitter Root Valley. In
regard to this world renowned
valley Mr.. McGill says "the val
ley proper has been under a
high state of cultivation for
number of years and the yield
of hay, grain, small fruits and
apples has been phenomenal in
fact 80 large have been the re-
turns to the ranchers were to
state the cold facts 1 would
scarcely be believed, but they
can be substantiated by the
most reliable and conservative
men in the valley. Within the
past few years experts have
been at work analyzing the soil
OF the bench lands in the val
ley and have found them ideal
for the growth and production
of apples. The record of this
valley is unique, in that there
has not been a failure of crops
during the thirty odd years
fruit has been grown there and
it is the only fruit growing
section in which there has
never been fruit pest of any
kind. In the very heart of this
splendid fIuit district the sun
set orchards are located-the
cream of the entire valley"
Development in the Bitter
Root Valley has just begun,
this is the day of opportunity
for investors.

A GOOD CLEAN SHOW

July 18th the Yankee Robin
son Show gave two first-calss
entertainments in Wahpeton.
The paper of Westhope gave
this show a bad send off in re-
gard to the manner in which
they conducted their recent ex-
hibition in that town, calling
them lot of grafters and say
ing that they we're overcharg-
ing for admissions and in fact
calling the whole show a band
of cut throats. This TRADE was
copied and commented on by
many of the papers of the
Northwest.
We found things much differ
ent when they were in Wahpe-
ton, the management and all
connected with the show were
very courteous to the patrons
doing everything possible for
their comfort and entertain
ment. There were no loafers
hanging around their tents and
no profame or obscene Ian
guage heard on the grounds.
The horses and equipment
were fine and some of the feat
ures of their entertainment
were the best that has ever
been shown here.

M'CUMBER TO
CONFEREES
Senior Senator Declares The Mil
lers Should Not Be Allowed to
Dispose Of By-Products in U. s.
Injury to the Farmers.

Washington, July 2o.-Sena-
tor McCumber of Norrh Dako-
ia today submitted statement
to the conferees on the tariff
bill bearing on the drawback
provision of the measure. Mr..
McCumber claims he stands
for the former and his state
ment is intended as a reply to
the com N unicatiou on the sub
ject addressed to the com nit
tee last week by Representa-
tive Stevens of st. Paul in be-
half of the millers. Mr.. Nc.
Cumber says in part:
"The miller finds it conven-
lent to dispose of all his by-pro-
ducts in the foreign markets
and now asks the authority to
export the flour manufactured
from the imported wheat, but
to dispose of the by-product at
home. He claims that the far
mer will be benefited by this
by being able to get cheaper
bran and shorts for his stock.
This is an admission at least,
that it makes these by-products
cheaper. Now the value of the
farmers wheat is the value of
all of the products of the pro-
ducts of the grain combined.
This wheat is valuable for
the flour, the bran and shorts
that it makes. If you increase
the supply of bran and shorts
you necessarily diminish the
value of the American wheat
from which the by products
are in part product.
"The farmer gives the miller
a duty Oh -four which helps the
miller to secure better prices,
in fairness, then, the millers
should not ask to be allowed to
dispose of his imported by-pro-
ducst of wheat in this country"
Senator McCumber refers to
the treasury construction of
the drawback which permits
flour mixing competition with
the "actual flour miller" This
he says is an injustice to the
American millers.
II think the millers are justi-
fed in complaining on this
point" he adds, but they must
admit they are hardly in po-
sition to complain 60 long as
they are asking for the same
right as to the wheat and even
a further right as to the by
products of wheat"

is that the country is not popu-
lated we'll enough to support
an electric line, as though pas
senger traffic was the only
source of revinue from such
roads.
Glancing at a sectional map
of Richland county there is
about 100 sections or 76,SOO
acres of land that would be
nearer such line than any other
road, this would mean 14OO
cars of grain nearer an electric
railroad than any other road at
500. per car $2S.OOO dollars in
carload freight.
Bnt says the objector what
would such a line do with car
loads delivered either at Han
kinsou or Great Bend, why the
the easiest thing in the world
there is the 500 line at Han
kinson and the Milwaukee at
Wahpeton that gets none of
this freight they are as we'll as
other roads, would be strong
bidders for this business ard
furnish their own cars to be
filled thus relieving the electric
line of keeping freight cars.
Again the 500 line cannot de-
liver i'll Wahpeton or Great
Bend and tie Milwaukee cam
not deliver in Great Bend and
Haukinson. Both roads would
pay we'll for terminal privel.
eges, thus the line would be
supported and upheld by all
aud fc light by none.
bu; says the objector would
not this boom property at the
terminals to the detriment of
land further away and kill
towns like Great Bend? Not a
bit of it.
Listen, there is being built
at Wahpeton without noise or
bluster one of the great State
Schools of North Dakota, the
State Science School to say
nothing about the fine Public
Schools at both Wahpeton and
Hankinson. Now if you we're
going to sell your farm would
it not be your choice argument
that your place was in an
hours ride of one or all of these
choice schools.
There is many such roads
that exist on local freight and
passenger traffic only. It might
not be SO large on this line as
some but would nevertheless
add some profit.
This line would be about 26
miles long at a probable cost of
$260,OOO not a large sum for
Richland county, about $500
per acre for the land benefited,
we believe every foot of the
right of way would be donated
and the farmers would sub.
scribe literally to the capitol
stock. There is plenty of cheap
electrical power to be obtained
with lines built as far as Wah.
peton that furnish light and
power for that city coming
from a power dam west OF Fer.
gus Falls.
There is thousands of dollars
of Richland County's money
made from her fertile soil chas.
ing investments among the
frosts of Canada or the torrid
sands of west Texas. Why not
develop the country where this
money was made.

RETIRES FEELING
GREAT DEAL BETTER
After Retiring to His Apartments
and Is Never Seen Alive
Again.
Fargo, N. D., July 16-The
entire state of North Dakota
was shocked late yesterday
afternoon when the report
spread like wildfire that Right
Reverned John o. Shanley,
bishop of the Catholic diocese
of Fargo, had passed suddenly
to the great beyond. At just
what hour death occurred is
not known, as when the body
was found, between 4 and 5
o'clock, it was cold in death,
and as far as known the dis
solution must have occurred be-
tween 1 and 2 2o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The dead body was
found by his private secretary
in his private apartments,
apoplexy being the cause of
death.
Bishop Stanley had been in
ill health for the past four years.
One month ago he returned
from a short European trip,
where he went in search of
health, and when he returned
to Fargo he was feeling better
than he had for years past.
On last Wednesday he re-
turned from Devils Lake, where
he presided at the Indian con.
gress that was held near that
place. He complained of not
feeling we'll at that time, but
after resting for a day or so
stated that he had felt better
than for some time past. Thurs
day evening he retired to his
apartments about II O'clock
and at that time stated that he
was feeling still better. That
was the last time the bishop
was seen alive.
Bishop Stanley was born in
Albion, N. Y, Jan. 4, 1852, and
was ordained as a priest May
80, 1874, at Rome. His conse-
Grafton as bishop took place at
st. Paul, Dec. 27, 1889. At that
time there were in the diocese
80 priests, 40 churches, an
academy for girls, hospital
and three parish schools. {.
There are now in the diocese a
mitred abbott. ITO priests, 2)5
churches, Is parochial schools.
four, Indian schools, five hospi-
tails, an orphanage, a college
for boys and six academies for
girls. In 18 years the number
of priests have quadrupled and
the number of churches more
than quintrupled.
The Benedictine fathers have
an abbey at Richardton, an
priory at Devils Lake, at which
points they attend several mis-
sions. Connected with the
Richardton abbey is a college
tor boys. The Benedictlne
sisters are in charge of several
schools and the presentation
nuns in charge of schoole and
orphans, and all of this great
work has been wrought during
the time that Bishop Stanley
had been in charge of the work
in this diocese. After coming
back to America from Rome,
where Bishop Stanley spent six
years, and at the age of 22
was ordained as priest in st,

Right Rev. John Stanley
Passes Into the Great Beyond

John 1.ateran at that place, he
then went to St. Paul, where he
was installed as pastor and
where he remained for Is years,
where he served under Bishop
Grace and the now Archbishop
Ireland. On Dec. 81. 1889, he
was ordained as Bishop of
Jamestown. which was later
changed to Fargo at his own
request on account of the better
railroad facilities in this city,
which office he had held for
nearly 20 years.
Bishop Stanley leaves three
sisters and a brother, as fol-
lows: Mrs. E. S. Kelley, who
has been making her home in
Fargo; Mre. E. Judd of Duluth,
and another sister in Duluth;
together with Charles Stanley
of St. Paul, all of whom have
been notified of his death.
The funeral will probably be
held Tuesday in this city at the
Great Cathedral which was the
bishops bride and will be at
tended by all the priests of the
state, together with several
bishops from other states, i'm
Guiding Archbishop Ireland of
st. Paul.
Thousands throughout n.
Dakota will mourn his loss, as
he was credited with having a
larger personal acquaintance
than any other man in the
state.
The remains will in all pro
liability lie in state that all who
knew him during his life can
take last look at one they
loved and respected.
Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock
the remains of Bishop Stanley
will be removed from his late
residence to St. Mary's Cathe-
dral, where they will lie in
state until after the funeral
mass on Tuesday. All the
priests who will be in the city
this afternoon will assemble at
the residence of Father Egan,
in vest and cassock, surplice
and berette, and proceed to the
bishops house to accompany
the remains to the church, re-
citing ou the way the Psalms,
Miserere and De Profundis
The priests will precedeand will
be in the city on Monday after

bishop will follow Immediately
behind the casket. When the
body has been placed on the
catafalque before the sanctu-
ary, the priests will recite the

GREAT BOOST FOR
NEW BALL LEAGUE

The Riverside Junior Baseball Lea
que bolted bodily last night into the
new Oahu Baseball League, now being
organized with the c. A. c. and J. A.
l. as the nucleus of senior league.
This cuts the ground out from under
the feet of the old Riverside League,
leaving it with only three out of the
eight teams it had two weeks ago. AT
the same time, it completes the num-
Der of teams required in the Oahu
Baseball League, for both the senior
and junior games, and places that Or
ganization in a position to go ahead
with business.
The meeting of the Riverside Juniors
WAS held at the leagues headquarters
on Nuuanu street above Beretanta. Inc
first thing that came up was the dis
bandment as the Riverside Junior
League, formal action in this matter
being taken by unanimous vote. me
new league was then organized, with
the following teams in Mohawk A. C.;
&c. A. C. Jr.; Sweet Violets and Asahis.
The old constitution and bylaws
were taken up and amended to con-
form to the new deal, the new rules
being formally adopted Election Oh
officers was then proceeded with ana
the following were chosen: A. K. Vler-
ra, president; G. K. Abe, vice presl-
dent: S. Gum, secretary Sam Hopp,
treasurer Vierra was not present at
the meeting He was notified by the
vice president this morning, however,
of his election and at once accepted the
Office.
The teams going into the Oahu Base
ball League as seniors are as follows:
C. A. c.; J. A. c.; Red SoX; and U. S.
Marines. This is quite strong COM
bination and is self assurance of good
baseball.
This completes both sections of the
new Oahu Baseball League and leaves
nothing in the way except that OF
permanent grounds. The lot makai Of
Beretania beyond Aala street is still
being considered and will be taken I'M
less Aala park can be gotten for all the
time the new league requires it.

will be asked to approve. If it is ap-
proved another team will be organized
to take the place of the All Hawaiis.
The Kapiolani League is a good one,
but in the past it has suffered by hav-
ing two very good teams and two very
poor ones. If the teams were more
evenly balanced, better results would
be achieved.

THE BIG YACHT
RACE To KAHULUI

The yacht race to Kahului will start
shortly before midnight on Thursday,
June TO- or early next morning. This
will be an affair for most of the smaller
boats and the excursion will doubtless
be enjoyed by those making the trip In
them. AS it will be a sail of three or
four days, it is not likely that the craft
will be overcrowded with passengers.
However, any one wishing to go can,
by communicating with the committee
and paying a few dollars for expenses,
make the best of it.
AS now planned, the larger yachts,
Tor schooners, of the pleasure fleet will
also sail over the course. Those like
ly to go in are the Luka, Concord, Ha-
wall and KaMoi. The chief event of
the trip, aside from the ordinary mat
ter of sailing, will be a reception and
dinner at Kahului.
