North Dakota and Minnesota in
particular have an interest in a bill
introduced in the senate by Mr..
Jones of Washington, setting apart
$4,000 a year for travel pay for the
president. A similar bill is to be
introduced in the house by a member
from California. Upon the enact
ment of this legislation at the pres
ent special session will depend
whether the president will make a
trip this year to the far west. And
if he should not make such trip he
will not be seen in North Dakota. The
far western senators and members
are pushing this legislation because
they want the president to visit the
Seattle exposition this year.

the chamber of commerce for con-
sultation concerning certificates that
trance of cattle, horses, sheep or 9th
er animals into Montana. about
which a hubbub was, raised because
! it was feared the orders might check
Immigration into Montana.
The state veterinarian said that the
orders of the livestock sanitary
board are that all animals coming
into Montana must be accompanied
by certificate across the face of
which, If issued by a federal inspec-
tor, must be written, .'tuberculin or
mallein tested" II the certificate
is issued by any other veterinarian or
state inspector it must be accompa-
MED by the charts showing the tests.
This will not interfere with ship

already refuse to- haul range stuff

NORTHWESTERN IMMIGRATION.

NORTHWESTERN ISINlIGRAT1OON.
There is ample opportunity for
commercial clubs, real estate men
and others especially interested In
the coming of new settlers to the
state, to cooperate for the better ad-
yertising of North Dakota this year
and insure that the state shall get
its full share of the immigration
that is moving toward the North
west.
The wisdom Of an appropriation by
which the state may advertise its
resources is proven by the fact that
the immigration authorities predict
a remarkable. influx Of settlers to
the northwest this year.
Naturally, Canada and the extreme
Pacific northwest are making strenu-
Gus efforts for much of this prospec-
tive settlement. North Dakota should
not be behindhand in setting forth
its resources.
The Hill and Hartman lines of
railroad will carry many settlers to
the northwest and the Pacific coun-
try. In a recent interview, Max Bass,
who is in charge of the immigration
affairs of the Great Northern road,
stated that the movement over the
Great Northern and the Northern Pa
cific roads had been at least twice as
heavy Is it was last year.
" Whether or not these roads carried
more than the Hartman lines is not
known, but as a rule the immigration
movement into the northwest Is much
greater by the Hill lines than by the
Hartman ines, the Hill route being
the more direct to the larger por-
ton Of the northwest. Regarding
the colonist movement; in general,
Max Bass said: 9 -
1.-THE Great; Northern officials be-
lieve that this years co1onist move
ment to the northwest will be the best
that they have known in the history
Of the road. This opinion is based
upon the movement for the month of
March and by the inquiry and by the
advance sales for April, as we'll as
the increased movement for the first
week of April. At present no figures
could be given over our lines which
would accurately represent the situa-
ton because the spring movement is
but half over. But the reports of
our agents everywhere show that we
are warranted in believing that the
total movement for the year, spring
and fall, will break the records for
the colonization movement.
F. 1.-THE new settlers are coming from
all parts of the United States as
we'll as from Europe, and the ma
jority is possessed of sufficient cap
ita1 to take up some line of business
aor to engage in diversified or special
lied farming. This is exclusive of the
floating class whose main object is
to get a job and who are willing
to migrate to any section where they
can get suitable work. 4he compile
ton of our new railroad lines in
+ the northwest has opened much ter
ritory, which was heretofore mac
cessible, and this is having stimu-
lating effect upon immigration.
Taking all things into consideration,
the officials of the Hill lines believe
that the present year is to be one of
great prosperity for the northwest,
for its greatest prosperity will come
with the greatest influx of new home
seekers

Make Immense Profit Or His
Acreage in Alfalfa.

DAYTON, Wash, July 24.-(Spec
ial) -Representative R. A. Jackson
will this year demonstrate at his
ranch on the Tul1anon that it is pos
sible with irrigation to grow four
crops of alfalfa year on land in this
vicinity Two crops of hay yielding
three tons an acre at each cutting
have already been harvested. The
first crop was cut in June and the
second this month. Mr. Jackson ex-
poets to get six tons from each acre
at the next two cuttings making to-
tai of twelve tons an acre.
At the present market quotation OF
SO a ton, Representative Jackson's
100 acre alfalfa field will yield him
$4,000. If as is predicted owing to
the general shortage of the hay crop
of the Northwest, the price of alfalfa
advances, to- SIS, the gross receipts
from this years crop will reach $2l,-
GOO Without irrigation it is impossl-
BILE to raise four crops in a season
here, but a number of alfalfa growers
of the Touchet valley will harvest
three drops Alfalfa hay is as yet III
its infancy in the valley but the IN
dustrv is developing rapidly and 1t Is
predicted that in the course of rev
wears. alfalfa hay will be one of the
principal products of the Dayton

TRAVEL CURE FOR OLD AGE.

Long before Metchnilloff had di-
agnosed old age as a disease the ep-
igramn?itists had labeled it as a bad
habit. But modest science, as US
ual. gave more hope than arrogant
wit. From our diseases hygiene and
medication may conceivably relieve
us. whereas our habits are too often
our masters and decline to be exer-
cised. One may acquire a liking for
sour milk, with it's beneficent mi
crobes, more easily than one may
straighten Shoulders once rounded
Happily. the remedy for both the
malady and habit of old age has been
discovered You have only to take
an ocean liner. or halt in any of the
tourist s.aravansaries from London 20
Assuan to see throngs of happy pa
tents complacently taking the travel
treatment Before it old age has re-
treated, and takes its last stand
among the sedentary, the unenter-
prising and the poor.

HAT PINS,

Hocl der chief of police of Han
over, Germany. There is the man of
conviction, of courage and of wis
dom. There is a Solomon in uni
form There is a savior of menaced
humanity
For some time past the women Of
pins SO long as to make life of I'M
certain tenure in that usually placid
community. Many long scratches
have been given and severe pune
lures inflicted by these keen, stiletto-
like fasteners. After several acct
dents of this character had occurred
the official interest was aroused, and
now comes forth the chief to de-
clare that henceforth when an acct
dent occurs to another through a
womans hat pin she will be liable to
arrest ard prosecution for assault.
Whether this will tend to decrease
the danger in this country or not re-
mains to be seen. The action of the
police chief OF Hanover, of unknown
but blessed name, suggests that the
American guardians of the public Sc
. curity have now blazed before them
a plain path of duty. Perhaps if the

COURTESY TOWARD THE PUB
Lie,

The head of the English post Office
department makes a personal appeal
to his myriad of subordinates to i'm
prove their manners. He suggests
that in their treatment of the public
courtesy and consideration would be
merits well worth cultivation. 1t
was many years ago that an AmerI-
can railroad king was alleged to have
adopted as his business slogan this
bon mot: The public be banked.
Followers of his in more recent times
have embodied the same thought III
slightly less offensive form. But the
habit is dying out The people WAC
control and support both govern
mental and private agencise for
their welfare are coming into their
own. They are treated with less con-
tempt than formerly They are still
burdened with the various oppressive
devices calculated to increase the
profits of those who should minister
to their well-being but on the side
merely of the personal amenities
there has been vast Improvement.
