VALUES ON COAST
ARE FAR TOO HIGH
PEOPLE IN FAR WEST HAVE AN.
TIcIPATEp LEGITIMATE RISE
FOR NEXT TWENTY YEARS
SAYS LIEUT.. GOV. n. S. LEWIS,
WHO RETURNED TODAY.

After a sotourn of month in the
western states the greater portion OF
which was spent in Washington,
Lieut.. Gov. r. s. Lewis returned this
morning with his Judgment rein
forced as to the value of real estate
in Fargo and North Dakota. =.
everything is very active in the
west" said MFR. Lewis this naerning
ESPECIALLY in real estate, but values,
in my judgment, are much too high,
The people Of the coast are enthusiast
tic, they look ahead and they are wise
to the value OF their growing ceun-
try. but in my Judgment thaey have
anticipated the legitimate rise in real
estate values for the next twenty
years.
From an investment standpoint 1t
is my actual belief that North Da-
kota offers the best Inducements for
the man who is looking for place to
put his money into real estate, Of any
of the western states and that by
large odds 4,
Mr.. Lewis Joined his son, Roy Lewis
and his SON. law. Roy Braisted, who
had preceded him to the coast and
they made quite an extensive tour of
the northwestern corner OF the Unite
ed States. f +.
Visited Many Cities.
They visited Portland and Sheridan,
Oregon, and intervening points and
visited Tacoma, Seattle, Snohpnish
and Spokane in Washington,
Their longest trip was up the Co
lumbia river. They went up the river
by steamboat as far as Pateros and
from there they went by stage up the
Methrow valley to Twisp. They also
visited the Lake Chelan district,
SEA They stopped off at intervening
points in Montana and investigated
several real estate propositions in
that state.
'In my opinion, Montana offers
much better inducements for investors
than any of the far western states,
said Mr.. Lewis.
I'VE saw quitesa number of former
North Dakota people at various places
we visited.
81 was walking along the street of
Snohomfsh. when saw an old gentle
man walking toward me. He did not
know me and I called out, Why you

was M. McMurehy, who formerly lived
at Harwood, an old pioneer Of the
state who ent est on account Of the
i'll health of his son.
Meets Former Farsoans.
He as delighted to see some one
from home and grasped my hand in
both of his almost shaking my arm
off. He has purchased a home at
snohenaish and will make his home
there. He stated that the best thing
about the coast is the climate. He
stated to me that he believes that
the valuations are too high and he
has not made any purchases there for
investment purposes.
AT Portland we saw J. S, Green
formerly of Mandan, Freeman Jones
Guy wallace and Attorney Hardy, the
latter formerly of the firm of Ball
watson, Young & Hardy. The two
last named are settled at Portland
and are well satisfied iwth their new
locations. Mr.. Jones and Mr.. Green
are still looking around"
Roy Lewis and Mr.. Braisted return
ed with the lieutenant governor and
they all have enjoyed the trip very
much However 1t is evident that
the only money that they invested was
! paid out for travelling expenses.

Died from Natural Causes.

Persons residing near Saude have
have been quite excited over an alleged
murder case, wherein Mr.. Hansen
was accused of the murder o. his wife
who passed away suddenly and without
apparent cause few days after child
birth. 1t was alleged that she was
poisoned, and the remains were ex-
humed and the organs sent to Chicago
for chemical analysis. No trace of
poison was found, and the disposition
of the case is given as follows in the
New Hampton Tribune:
Coroner Johnston of the Burg was
in town yesterday and the jury, which
had been empaneled to inquire into the
cause of deathof Mrs. Hansen of Jack
sonville last January was called to.
gether to complete its work. The
chemical analysis, which was ordered,
revealed no traces of poisoning and al
the presence,of poison would have beer
necessary to warrant verdict of mur
der, the jury could make no other re
port than death from natural causes
This investigation clears up a CASE
which gossip had made to appear
serious and public sentiment and jus
tice aemended Thorough probing"
