SECRETARY OF STATE.

The candidacy of P. D. Norton of
Hettinger, formerly Of this county for
Secretary of State will receive strong
support throughout this entire section
Of the state. Not only has Mr.. Norton
many warm personal friends who are
strongly supporting his candidacy, but
Others who have watched his success
here and in other parts of the state,
are doing all In their power to give
him Jumper majority from Ramsey
county. He has OUT sympathy and will
get our vote not only because he is
a warm personal friend but because
he is capable, honest, and absolutely
fearless in discharging public duty.
Moreover his success In the primaries
this year means strength for the re-
publican party in the fall He hasn't
sent US any paid announcement and he
doesn't need to. His record is good
enough for US.
Following are clippings from the
press of the state relative to his can
didaey:

TWO NORTH DAkOTANs.

A few days ago two husky North
Dakotans rode into town on a cam
paign tour through the northeastern
and western part Of the state. They
were P. D. Norton and U. L. Burdick,
candidates for secretary of state and
Lieutenant-G Governor respectively.
There is something about these two
typical North Dakotans that makes US
feel like doing all in our power to
help them.
We believe that there election will
mean a step ahead for North Dakota.
They are both able, energetic, hon
est and courageous. Both have good
records behind them. A vote for p.
D. Norton and u. L. Burdick is q vote
for honest politics and will give North
Dakota two honest capable officials.
We favor them not because they be-
long to any faction of the republican
party but because they are the kind
of republicans who will bring honor
and credit to themselves as well as to
their state. q. L. Burdick was speaker
Of the last House. P. q. Norton was
chief clerk Of the previous house. Both
have the confidence of their fellow
officials Of all parties Both are at
torneys of ability, have enough Of the
worlds goods to be independent, and
what lie equally important. Both have
q sincere desire to serve their state
well We wish them every success and
known that their success means re-
publican SUCCESS fin the state THE fall.

Try the Gauge on Yourself

When you feel that you must
 talk about something and you don't know what you are talking about, the best way is to go to headquarters for information; then you can talk trathfully and intelligently. And especially when you are scandalizing be sure 10 ask yourself where you got your information and wheth- CT your informant knew what he or she was talking about. Also, ask yourself what pleasure you get out of it. Next, run your self through the grading screens and find your position ill the human race. After this is done, perhaps you will have forgotten your original subject and beable to find some topic of conversa- ton more beneficial to yourself and the haman race in general Red Cloud (Neb.)

Col. George ". N8rtOn'S
 Memorial No. 2

Washington, D. C., May 27.- Senator Flint reported that the house is favorable to the senate bill granting two and one half acres to the town of Yuma known as the 70 narry reserve. '" This is q part of the sequel to Hon. George w. Norton's Memorial No. 2 which he introduced in the last legislature asking congress to quiet title of the old prison hill site to Yuma. The history of the matter is as follows:
 The town of Yuma, in October, 1876, deeded to the territorial board of prison commissioners, for prison purposes tract of land designated as ''penitentiary grounds" with a reversion Tn the conveyance that when the prison ceased to be, the land should again become Q part of the townsite. There was 8 tract of two and a half acres which had been part of the Fort Yuma military reservation which was understood to be included in the townsite patent. The town of Yuma was so advised by the commissioner of the general land office as late as 1901. But in 1907 the officials of the town were informed by the commis- sioner that the tract, which had come to be known as the "Quar- ry reserve" was not included in the patent.
 By this time the removal of the prison had been ordered by an act of the legislature and the town wanting the tract for

GiId VaIIGy
Fine, Sandy LOanl

The Gila fine, sandy loam is found in long, narrow strip skirting the river, and in other parallel strips which probably represent the margins of former river courses. The surface is level and usually covered with a dense growth of arrow weed, willows, etc. The soil is formed of the particles of sediment first deposited by the overflow water, the finer particles of silt and clay being carried further inland .or downstream and deposited in -stiller water.
 The Gila fine sandy loam is a fine sand having the properties of sand lOam. The particles are nearly all of uniform size, making d soil of high capillary power and one through which water not only moves long dis tances but also with great rapid ity. It is easily cultivated and remains in good tilth for long time. The surface soil is from three to twenty feet deep and is underlain by a coarser river sand.
 Owing to it's high capillary power and the nearness of the surface over most of the areas of this soil the greatest care must be taken to prevent the rise of alkali after the removal of the natural vegetation. With proper care, however, it should be one of the most productive soils of the valley.
 Crops of almost any kind suit ed to the climate do exceptionally well on this soil. Alfalfa is the principal crop grown. Very lit tie of this soil is at present under cultivation.

Cobra Killed by a Roach

Rex, the king cobra at the New York zoo, and said to have been the largest snake in captiv ity, as we'll as the deadliest- murdered in a cowardly fashion as he slept.
 In his obituary there is a warn ing against overeating, all the more timely in these days of soaring prices of foodstuffs. In one sense Rex was not a gour- mand, sine he was accustomed to eat only on Sundays. Recent ly he refused food even then, due to an abscesS on his jaw, in the lancing and dressing of which Curator Ditmars had what he terms the narrowest escape of his life from the deadly poison fangs.
 Rex recovered from the oper- ation, and likewise recovered his appetite, so that last Sunday he had square neal and in the fashion of snakes went to sleep to digest his food and wait for the next eating day. Two days afterWard it was discovered that Rex was dead He had not been sick and an examination of his body failed to reveal any marks of violence. Accordingly an au- topsv was held, which revealed that he had been done to death in his sleep by tiny black roach, less than one five hundFedth of his size, which had bored into his brain and was found there still alive. But if Rex had not consumed such large meal he would doubtless now be alive, and likewise the zoo would not be mourning the loss of a $500 specimen.

Yuma and Phoenix
 Ter. Highway Survey

The survey for the territorial road from Phoenix to Yuma will reach here this week. The sur veying party is in charge of J. 5. Parks. Mr. Parks was in town Saturday, and in an inter view he said the survey Of the road from Phoenix to Yuma would be completed within the next few days. He says, how ever, that in his judgment the actual building of the road would not begin until late this fall. It is almost a certainty that the work of construction will be taa ken up this fall, and if sufficient pressure is brought to bear upon the board of control the work may begin at both ends of the line.

ArizOna'S Early Fruits
 Phoenix Oranges

The Phoenix Republican says: L.. V. ". Brown is the largest indlvidpal grower of ora ages in the Riverside district of Califor- nia, and Engineer H. s. Reed of the reclamation service has taken some pains to impress Mir. Brown on the occasions of two or three visits he has paid this valley, with the great truth that while oranges will grow elsewhere, this is the only best place on earth for them. Much has been said of the valleys early oranges, it's sweet oranges, and all that sort of thing. MT. Reed has also impressed on Mr. Brown that these are only part of the fine points, and another important one is that this is the best place in the world also for late or anges.
 On May 4th, after the Califor, nia crop was all gone and River side people were hungry for or anges, MT. Reed picked from a valley grove what he believed to be four fine oranges and sent tLem to Mr. Brown for his en- joym ant and expert opinion He has received a reply as follows:
 "The oranges arrived some time ago and were very much enjoyed; three of them were de- licious, but one of them was frozen to frazzle. This un- doubtedly due to the trying ex- perience which they went thro' this winter. However, you were not alone in your troubles, so cheer up, and remember, as we do, that the worst is yet to come The quality of the three was certainly par excellence, ,and should be a great boom to the valley if you can raise fruit of that quality. I thank you very much for remembering me and would be glad to return the compliment if the fruit would be acceptable"

High SChOOI Building

Having been virtually notified by the trustees of school district No. l that quarters will not be available for the Union high school in the Main street school building daring the ensuing year, on accountof increasing require ments of the grammar school attendance, the high school board is looking about for a future To- cation for the high school They do not desire, if they can avoid it with convenience and ecoDo- my, to call for a bond issue for the construction Of a high school building.
 Thus far the only location for the high school that has been considered is the vacated peni- tentiary. The buildings there, or any desired portion of them, afford reasonable facility and convenience for class rooms, ante rooms, laboratory, etc, far be yond any possible requirement for some years to come. The location is comparatively con venient of access, the grounds afford ample scope for recreation of pupils and there is small pros pect of the buildings being put to other usage for some time to come. The structure is a white elephant on the bands of the people of Yuma, and the town trustees will without doubt con- sider the project favorably and lease for high school purposes such quarters as may be desired and upon reasonable terms.
 The matter has been laid be- fore the outgoing town council, which may pass upon it before retiring, during the week.

S8OO,OOO in Gold
 is Leaving Alaska

Seattle, May 2o.-Private cable. grams received here say $500, GOO in gold, the gold, the first ship ment from the seasons cleanup, left Fairbanks, Alaska, for Seat tie yesterday and will reach here between June 10 and 1J.
 The first gold shipments this year are a week or ten days earlier than usual and represent the first clean, up. Banks expect second shipments of as large volume to be made soon.
 The Fairbanks emp this year will produce between six and eight million dollars, according to mail advices just received from R. C. Wood, a Fairbanks banker. Mir, Wood writes thas the output may be increased somewhat if labor can be ob- tained. His estimate of the sea- sons clean up is for the Fair. banks camp alone and does not include the entire Panama dise trict.

Cruelty to Prisoners

The Constitution of the United States forbids the imposition upon offenders against the law of "cruel and unusual panishments" If this does not cover con6ne- ment in the Yuma county jail during the summer months we would like to know why. As an abiding place at this time of year it is comparable only to the ill-famed Black Hole of Calcutta or minor subdivision of the Hot Hereafter. The new coGntg jail will not be ready for use for some montks to come. The old jail has been condemned by authoritative bodies time and again as untenable, unit and in secure. With ample and conve- nient quarters easily 0btaiDable at the vacated penitentiary, the reason why the board of super visors of Yuma -cornty continue to force the sheriff to make use of this hell box is not at all ap- parent. The board has been liberal with the tax funds of the county for divers and sundry purposes; why not pay out a moderate sum in the interest of common humanity?

ture, easy to cultivate and re- quiring little cultivation to main tain good tilth. It is usually uHderIain by sand at depth of from three to four feet. In some places, however, two or three feet of loam intervene between the soil and the sand sabsoil.
 The water table of the entire valley is high, being on an aver age but ten feet below the sur face, and thls soil, owing to high capillary power, has in places accumulated considerable alkali. Not only has the soil d high capillary power, but water moves through it quickly. mak- ing the total amount of water evaporated from it's surface quite large. For these reasons, if the soil IS left uucultiyated the accu- mutation of alkali is rapid, but under cultivation with irrigation the accumulation is avoided by the presence of the surface mulch and the ready teaching out of the salts.
 Alfalfa, sorghum, barley and kindred field crops are the only ones tbat have as yet been grown to any extent on this soil.

The Imperial sandy Ioam, like thu Imperial sand, IS situated principally in the part of the valley mos at present subject to overflow, The surface Of this soil is usually comparatively level, reqSiring very little work to prepare it for irrigation. 1t has been formed by the admix- tpre 1of sediment from the river with coarser material transport ed from the higher land sur rounding the valley.
