The CUSKELLY HILL
FINALLY FINISHED

The Cuskelly hill on the road two
miles north of Dickinson is cut down,
at least all it will be for the present.
Sandy Stewart did the work, for which
he has charged the county S643, or some
what less than it was estimated at one
time last fall that the job would cost.
The cut in the hill is 8 to II feet and
the dirt has been pulled down into the
hollow this side. a little being taken
the other way. Those who have ex-
amined the work say that it is salts
factory and that the county will now
have q good road on the township line
leading to Green river.
The city has also had work done
on the road opposite the detention house
amounting to 1926. which adds a good
deal to the north thoroughfare.
In speaking of the work. Mr.. Stewart
said that at some future time when the
county can better afford it, the Cuskelly
hill should be cut down a little more.
However it is very good as it is. OF
it will be as soon as the dirt in the fills
gets packed a little more. and the farm
ers will be able to take good loads over
the road now

GREAT KIT OUTFIT
JOINS PROCESSION

The homesteaders are also driving the
cattlemen out of business in Montana
as is evidenced by the following from
the Miles City Journal:
Again the fact that the Treasure State
is in rapid transition from a grazing
to an agricultural country is brought
forcibly to mind: this time by the de-
termination taken by the owners Of the
xI T Cattle company to close out, it's
business on the Montana range, which
will be done this year. The company
is not absolutely forced to abandon the
range at this time but is taking time
by the forelock. q.
Realizing that the influx Of the dry
land farmer and the favor with which
the sheep industry is meeting will
soon make the conducting Of a cattle
business on the scale followed by the
KIT an impossibility, the MANAGE
ment have decided to close out before
the time comes when it will be out of
the question to round.their cattle up and
get them to market at a figure that will
afford a profit. Fences are going up all
over the north side, where their range
lies; springs which furnish the water
supply IN which, the range cattle are
absolutely dependent in the late summer
and fall are being taken up by the land
seekers and while there is no complaint
this year. that there is not enough grass
for the cate and sheep that at present
stock the range, the conditions are fast
becoming such that the big roundup will
soon be impracticable.
The. outfit will probably ship between
5000 and 10, 600 cattle this year. which
will wind them up on their Montana
range, which is located between the
Yellowstone and Missouri rivers and
from Miles City to the forks of the
Missouri and Yellowstone. The outfit
was established on the range in Montana
in 1890. o. C. Cato was in charge at
ttat time and has been ever since.
They have shipped four to five trains
yearly from this country.
The Montana outfit is a branch of the
KIT which has its home in Texas.
1t was organized by an English syndi-
cate with a number of Chicago stock
holders. It had at one time 3, $50, 600
acres Of land under fence in Texas. a
fence 225 miles long and was run in
seen different divisions. There were
over $50. 600 head Of cattle onfthe ranch
at one time and one year they branded
AZ. 900 calves. The company is gradu-
ally, closing out in Texas too. and sell

SPECIAL STAMP STORY
QUITE Unreasonable

Bismarck Tribune - An article ap-
pearing in the press of the state under
a lGrand Forks date line, .quots an,
official of the government revenue COL
lection dep artment as stating that there
are /, 791 special stamps held in
North Dakota, or one to each 244 of
the population Of the state-a larger
number than are permitted of saloons in
the state of Minnesota. where the num-
Der is limited to one in 500. There is
also a statement of the shipments of
beer into the state from Minnesota
sales headquarters, the argument in
ferred but not stated being that more
liquor is consumed in North Dakota than
in Minnesota, and that prohibition is a
bad thing for the state.
In the first place, we have the right to
question the figures as to the number
of special stamps held in the state until
We have authoritative information from
the collector of revenue, and not in a
roundabout statement through an unau-
thorized channel. There may be 1. 791
special stamp licenses in the state.
There may be twice that many. There
may not be half that many. We have
no accurate or positive information on
the subject.
II there arr. that many, the number is not
n to IA people. That would mean that
North Dakota had only 437. 00O people.
North Dakota has nearer twice that
many, 90 the proportion would be only
half as great as stated. 1t is true, with
out doubt, that a great many people
consume liquor and import it. That
does not prove that it would be better
to have sales headquarters in every
block of a North Dakota city, legalized
as saloons. The legalized saloon is a
recognized factor in municipal and state
affairs. The ''blind pig is an out
lawed institution that is kept busy saw
ing itself from the visitations of the
law. The owner of the ''blind pig is
not injecting himself and his institution
into municipal and state affairs to
widen his field of business and break
down wise ordinances for the regulation
of the liquor business.
Prohibition is not successful in
wipins out the sale and 8 of liquor.
As long az there is an abnormal profit
in selling liquor illegally, there will
be men who will take chances of i'm
prisonment for the sake of the ..-unlaw-
full profit. But the business is not made
attractive and given any color of law
lessness and the doors of drinking
resorts do not swing wide to entice q
class of young men who might other
wise fall victims to the lure of the
saloon.
The article in question refers to the

Pearl Harbor Buildings.

According to Captain Rees, COM
mandant of the Honolulu Naval Sta
ton, work on the buildings planned
for the Pearl Harbor Naval Station,
will not be started for at least year.
The contractors for the channel dred-
ging and construction of the drydock
have about three years in which to
complete their work and there would
be little use in constructing buildings
for the station when they could not be
used until the dredging was completed.
There is a likelihood, however, that
the barracks for the marines and quar-
tiers for the officers, will be built ahead
of all other structures. The present
camp of the marines near the Homo
lulu naval station is not satisfactory
1t is located on a sand reservation the
glare from which is extremely trying
