MAKES Plea for Boosting Of the
Slope Country.

Senator George WEIGH who has re-
Gently returned from Chicago where
he was a delegate to the National
Farm congress, is enthusiastic over
the future of North Dakota and espec-
tally the Slope country, and in speak
ing of boosting and other things to
Tribune reporter the other day he
said:
While North Dakota has for years
been steadily growing in population
and wealth, it is noticeable now that
several of the state west of US are
receiving considerable attention by
land buyers.
This Is a very pleasing condition
and should not cause the least bit of
uneasiness in the minds of land OWL
ers in North Dakota.
The idea prevails throughout the
east that we have passed the stage
Of speculative development and are
to be congratulated upon the class of
farmers now building permanent
homes in North Dakota
Another very encouraging condition
is found in the fact that the great
majority of the large number of mid
die west farmers who are stepping
off the trains every day into nearly
every city and town in this state,
are securing land here, establishing
homes and are reaping the benefits
to be derived from our rich soil. They
are attracted here, not By the loud
noise and red ink of the old time
land boomer-but rather by the wide
spread publicity of this states fertil-
ity and 7roductiveness, and the eff
forts of our carefully compiled Off.
cial statistics and publications.
The era when large tracts, produc-
ing nothing but grass, were bought
and sold to mere spectators, has
passed. We find now that sales are
mainly quarter sections and half Sec
lions, and that these are bought with
the intention Of building up a farm
home and supporting a family here
on.
However, we believe in the loud
noise and red ink, and we have those
agencies to thank for the present sat
isfactory condition. The men who
have secured land through the adj
vertising Of the small dealer, have
been very successful in the past and
are, at this time, our most enthusiasts.
tic boosters and our best advertisers.
We have great state and our peo-
pie know it. So boost for North Da-
kota-for the Slope-for Burleigh
county and Bismarck in particular
When you travel-register from Bis
marck and you will be surprised to
find how busy it will keep you telling
people about this wonderful region
and answering earnest inquiries re-
garding your own home state.

RED CROSS STAMPS
MAKE fine GREETING
MONEY SECURED FROM SALE TO
GO INTO THE TUBERCULO-
SIS FIGHT.
In Cities Where the Stamps Have
Been On Sale the Demand Grows
Heavier With Each Season.

The buyer of Red Cross Christmas
stamps, whether the purchase is one
Or a thousand stamps, is not only OBJ
tanning a cheerful holiday greeting to
place on a letter or parcel that is 60
making a contribution to one of the
greatest movements ever organized
in America. Psople all over the
United States are buying the, stamps,
not only for the bright cheerful STAN
itself, but also to contribute to the
effort of the American Red Cross in
driving the white plague out of the
land. The selling of the Christmas
stamps for this purpose began last
year, when over $4,000 worth were
sold in thirty-five states. Pennsyl-
vania people bought $21, 900 worth of
stamps. New York purshased $751;
ia worth, Massachusetts bought $751;
900 worth The little state Of Rhode
Island was nearly $4,000 richer after
the sale-so far as the anti tubercu-
losis work was concerned.
The more widely the people become
acquainted with the stamps, the more
readily they sell, and the Red Cross
Christmas stamp gives every sign OF
being the most conspicuous factor,
not excepting Santa Claus, during the
holiday season this year. The news
papers all over the country have free
" given their services in helping the
Red Cross spread information of the
Christmas stamp and philanthropic
purposes for which it is sold among
the people Of the city, town and ru-
raj districts. In many cities the bill
posters have become enthusiastic
over the Christmas stamp cause and
will post thousands of posters and
tack up thousands of cards that the
stamp sale and it's meaning may be
brought before the public eye.
Since the proceeds from the stamp
sales go into the Red Cross warfare
against the white plague in the city
~ state in which they are solI, and
since the stamps bring genuine
Christmas cheer to the person who
uses them, the movement is proving
the most popular ever launched in
promoting public cause.
The stamp sales in Bismarck are in
charge of Hoskins, Finney and Len

DEATH VALLEY "SCOTTY"
COMING WITH MARINES

stock of gold ore was on the ebb, and
Scotty' didn't come through in the
manner that the menials expected.
Consequently there was big cry OF
false ALARM and the miner was con-
demned right and left by the news
papers as vulgar notoriety seeker, as
he undoubtedly was. But "Scotty"
was nothing daunted, or he took the
long trail to the regions of Death
Valley, disappeared altogether for a
couple of months, and came out with
about $4,000 worth Of ore.
Wine, women and song" would be
the literal accounting for the DISPOSE
ton of this money. "Seotty" decided
he would be an actor man, and conse-
quently secured a third-rate aggrega-
ton of transformers with which he, as
leading man, toured the Pacific Coast.
To say that the miner-actor was given
a decidedly cool reception is putting it
mildly. The newspapers in the North
west simply "roasted the tar'' out of
the man, and, exceedingly disappoint-
ed, he accumulated a good-sized jag in
Portland, Oregon, and took the train
one night, leaving his company, unpaid,
behind him.
This was several years ago, and since
that. time "Scotty' has broken into
print a number of times. but mostly on
the strength of his former reputation.
His excuse that he is seeking the
simple ife'' in order that he may
break away from the cocktail habit is
characteristic of ''Scotty.' The fact
Of the matter is probably that he has
found himself without funds and with
no prospects for getting any, so has
enlisted in the ranks.

GUST OF WIND
TWISTS OFF A
COTTAGE ROOF
Walter MacfarIane's Country Home Smashed
With Family Inside---WaIter Has WhirI
in Air but Is Unhurt.

Swooping down with terrific force,
gust of wind literally tore the roof
from Walter Macfarlane $ house at Ka-
huluu, on windward Oahu, last Sun
day morning and flung it off to one
side Without the slightest warning to
the people in the house and in the
neighborhood, the whirlwind came and
conquered. All was quiet before the
swoop and Immediately afterward the
air became as calm as any day in June
Mrs. Walter Macfarlane and her chill
dren were in the house at the time,
which was about clock in the morn
ing. and although no one was hurt, the
shock of seeing the roof rise above
her head and sail away has left Mrs.
Macfarlane in very nervous state.
Walter Macfarlane was in field
some distance off, and just before the
house was struck, the wind picked him
up in air, whirledN him around and
threw him, none too gently, on his
face. As he raised himself up from the
ground he saw the timbers splitting

STORM DAMAGES THE
TELEPHONE SERVICE

The telephone system of this city
has been broken up to considerable
extent by the quiet fall of rain and
the modest winds of the past few days.
All connection with Manoa Valley has
been cut off, and the service has been
put in bad condition in several other
parts of the city.
Little or no damage has been done
by the windstorm on the other islands,
according to wireless messages that
have been received in this city. The
kona was not felt ons Hawaii, and
though rough weather has been expe-
rienced off the Maui coast, there was
nothing out of the ordinary in it.
Locally, the storm has done consid-
cradle good. Contractor Whitehouse
stated yesterday that enough water had
fallen to keep the men at work sluic-
ing for the next two weeks. Nuuanu
reservoir rose more than six feet yes
terday morning.

COELHO HAS
FISHING LAW
Preparing Unconstitutional Bill
to Exclude the Japa.
1eSe.

Senator Coelho of Maui has new
one. The Honorable Senator, having
the welfare of his people at heart, has
now proposed and is at present work
ing on a bill for the Legislature, pro-
viding that no Japanese shall be allow
ed the privilege of fishing i'll Hawai-
ian waters.
Not only japanese would the gentle
man from Maui exclude from fishing,
but also all aliens, though he has fail
ed to take cognizanee of the fact that
the courts of several states, as well as
one Federal court, have decided that
such an act would be beyond the pale
of constitutionality. The Attorney Gen
eral whom Coelho consulted on the
matter, expressed grave doubts as to
the eonstitutionality of the proposed
bill, but seemingly the Senator was not
satisfied.
He stated that he had gone into the
matter pretty thoroughly, and had
found that in good many states the
law allows the states to regulate the
fisheries and the fishing industry.
Nevertheless, the Attorney General viii
probably take a hand in the business
before the fun goes any further. Coelho,
it is understood, has number of inter
esting, as well as amusing, bills to in
tIoduce to the consideration of the Leg.
jslature besides his unconstitutional
fishing law.

Death Valley "scotty," the tramp
miner, known all over the United
States because of his peculiar financial
acquisitions and his still more peculiar
manner Of spending money like wildfre,
is said to be due here tomorrow with
battalion of the United States Ma
rine Corps. 'EScotty' is man some
what after the fashion of another
'Scotty' known to Honolulu, although
his operations have been conducted on
a much larger scale, by virtue of the
almost unlimited amount of funds
which he has had and which he claims
he now has at his disposal. ''Scotty'
has stated that he joined the Marine
Corps in Chicago to get back to the
"simple life" Probably after he has
had year or so of the drudgery, the
man who is supposed to have rich
gold mine in Death Valley, California,
Will be glad to revert to the Simple
NE that is found on the Great White
Way in New York.
Death Valley "Scotty' first came
into national prominence through his
wild race across the American continent
In specially chartered train. He
broke all speed records between San
francisco and Chicago, and acquired
such fame as "spender' that the
bellhoys, walters, etc, looked forward
to prineely tips and gratuities from
him. "seotty" apparently wished to
have this kind of reputation, for he
spread the news of his fabulousIv rich
mine in Death Valley afar and he
started business on the $5-tip scale.

house, and then the roof, lifted by the
unseen power, rose, moved off and tum-
bled in one crumbling mass away from
the superstructure.
The place was visited by Fred w.
Macfarlane on Monday, and he states
that, beyond the wreck described, no
damage was DONE The storm hurled
itself down from the hills in one great
effort, but there were no subsequent
air-treinors
One rumor, which can not be con-
frmed, has it that Mrs Macfarlane and
her children heard the ripping noise as
the roof was being torn loose and got
under bed. This, it was said, was
all that saved their lives, as the story
goes on to the effect that the greater
part of the braeing timbers Of the roof
tumbled directly inward. It was also
stated that Mrs. Macfarlane had re-
ceived some slight injuries, but this is
denied by Fred Macfarlane.
Last night many people had it that
the Ahuimanu homestead had been
wrecked. All sorts of stories were
told.

MANUEL COSTA
KILLS HIMSELF
Fires Bullet Into His Head
With Revolver Obtained
From Wife.

Family troubles and a downtown dis
agreement caused Manuel Costa to leave
his business yesterday afternoon, return
home, procure a revolver and kill him
self in the parlor of his little home on
Punchbowl. It was a case of deliberate
suicide
Shortly after 8 clock, Costa, hav,
ing cleared up all his work at Henry
May & Company's store, where he has
been employed for many years, lately
as delivery checker, started home. Ar
irving there he asked his wife for his
pistol. The wife refused to give it
to him until he said that he had sold
it to a haole for $3.50 and wanted to
show it to him. The wife reluctantly
turned the gun over to Costa. He left
the house with the weapon and went
down as far as Luso street, but he re-
turned quickly.
Meantime his wife, somewhat alarm,
ed, had run over to her mother S house
to tell her of his strange request. The
two women both buried back to the
house, in time to hear the report of a
revolver. Entering, they found Costa
stretched out on the parlor floor, blood
gushing from wound in the right ear.
He was clad in his shirt and trousers
and his shoes had been removed.
Others had heard the report of the gun
and hurried over, but Costa was beyond
human aid, and the police were notified
Both Sheriff Jarrett and Deputy Sheriff

Yet the work done in the organization
