Local Concern Reaches Out

There is a proposition on foot to
consolidate the Sentinel Butte and
Beach telephone companies-that
is. for the Beach people to take
over our company and issue stock
to us for it. Inasmuch as this
system has never been on a really
paying basis owing mainly to the
fact that it is too small to stand
the expense of a regular repair
crew, etc., we are inclined to the
opinion that the change would
be beneficial to this town and VIC
Unity. If the Beach company were
to take over this line they could
doubtless keep it in repair with
the same crew and the advantage
would be mutual and they would
be able to realize a. profit where
we could not.-Sentinel Butte Re-

Man Killed And
Badly Mang|ed
John Linton, a Laborer, Run Over
BY Freight Train Near Yates,
and Instantly Killed

John Linton. laborer, was
killed and badly mangled by a
freight train about two miles this
side of Yates last Friday evening
about eight o'clock. He had been
to Yates and was walking back to
Beach when the engine struck him
and ground him underneath it.
On his badly mangled body were
found a personal check for $40, a
watch, a bottle of alcohol and book
giving his name as John Linton of
Milwaukee, Wis. He had been
around Beach for several years and
had gone up to Yates day or two
before his death where he became
intoxicated the day previous. Be-
fore leaving he had purchased the
bottle of alcohol and was last
seen going down the track, appar-
emily in a sober condition. It is
thought that he did not hear the
approaching train.
The body was shipped to Glen
dive and taken in charge by the
county coroner Of Dawson county.

Of the opinion that power can be

Senator McCumber stated. "The
development of our vast Ignite
deposits will make North Dakota
the most important manufacturing
state in the Union. 1t will free
the state from the domination
of terminal markets in the sale Of
grain, which means to the farmers

Hold Successful
Teachers Institute
Ninety Teachers Attended and All
Were Well Pleased With
the Program

The teachers institute was held
in Beach this Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day. Seventy-five teachers ENROLL
ed Monday and 80 was the total
enrolment.
Prof. P. S. Berg, of Dickinson,
was the conductor and was ably
assisted by Miss Caldwell. also of
Dickinson.
Supt. Berg is considered one
of the ablest educators of the
state and the institute was very
fortunate in securing his services.
Prof. Hollis, of the Valley City
Normal, gave the institute address
Monday evening, his subject being:
"Give the country boy chance. {"
It was an excellent address and
was received with hearty applause.
Wednesday evening was set for
the lecture by Supt. Stockwell who
at the last moment was called
away to the bedside of his sick
father in Minnesota. It was a
great disappointment to the teach
ers and to Beach.
Thursday evening the institute
closed and most of the teachers
took the special car, which Supt.
Kitchen had provided, for Mandan
to attend the Missouri Slope Asso-
citation meeting, where all expect
to put forth their best efforts to
bring the association meeting to
Beach in 1911.
The institute was one of the
best ever held in this section Of
the state and Supt. Kitchen is to
be congratulated on having plan
ned and so successfully carried it
out.

People Don't Realize Its Value

The people of North Dakota seem
scarcely to realize what the enor-
nous deposits of Ignite mean to
them. First of all it means cheap
power for a thousand years.
With cheap power lot Of the
wheat raised in the State will be
made into flour at home. The 1909
crop alone would make 15,O0O,-
600 barrels of flour. When this
time arrives, and come it will,
the dockage problem as now fixed
by Minnesota will be thing Of
the past, the farmers will get the
full milling value of their wheat.
and have what few cleanings there
may be for feed.
Not only will lot of wheat be
ground at home. but the 1900, 900
tons of flax straw now burned an
nually will be made into linen
goods and all of the many by-pro-
ducts.
Professor H. Bachelor of Fargo
who has made an exclusive study
of North Dakota Ignite is authority
for the statement, "That this valu-
able fuel will make this the rich
est in the Union. !" Professor Batch
elor is quoted as saying, ''my in
vestigations of our Ignite con-
vinces me that power can be pro-
duced more cheaply here than in
any part of the world, that its
gas making properties give it a
value second to no other coal, that
gas can and will be made and sold
at figures that will astonish the
rest Of the country. This gas will

NOT SQUEEZED
BY PACKERS
Old Time Rancher Gives Facts Con.
cerning Col. Roosevelt and
the Packing Barons
Medora, N. D., March 14.-To

Medora, N. D., March 14.-To
the Forum: Theodore Roosevelt
and his experiences in ranching in
western North Dakota in the early
day is made the stbject of a beau
tiful "pipe dream" published in a
recent issue of a Minneapolis Sum-
day paper. It is the dream Of
one Thomas A. Clark, an old Fargo
Argus man. Mr.. Clark is trying
to take from Teddy" all his
glory as a broncho buster and cow
boy. Mr.. Clark tells how the
shrewd packing barons squeezed
Teddy; how he was engaged with
de Mores in the old Medora pack
ing plant some twenty years ago,
and how the packers froze him
out Of business. The only truth
in his acticle is that there were
such men as deMores and Roose-
velt at Medora, in the early eigh-
ties. To make sure of this matter
the records of the old deMores' Co.
have BEEN searched. going back
more that twenty five years. The
records do not show the name Of
Theodore Roosevelt either as a
stockholder or a seller to the cor.
poration, neither do they how that
de Mores, or his company ever
purchased a single head of stock
from Mr.. Rooevelt. Mr.. Rooevelt
was e cattle raiser, while deMores
was a cattle slaughter.
The "shrewd packing barons"
had nothing to do with the success
or the non.success Of de Mores.
de Mores found that to slaughter
cattle on the range. a longs ways
from market, and where they could
only be found in a fit condition
or the market about four months
in the year, did not pay, and the
business was closed down. This
Medora plant. having been started
by a French .obleman received
much notoriety all over the western
country.
Several years before the coming
of de Mores there were similar
plants started at Victor, Columbus
and Rockport, Texas. also Ft. Sher-
man, Wyoming, and even after
de Mores started here there was
one opened at Miles City, Mont.
These were. all failures and from
the same cause as the failure here.
For the sake of illustration: If
it were profitable to slaughter
cattle on the range the "shrewd
packing barons" would have been
doing it for these many years. So
much for de Mores. As to Roose-
velt and his ranching. This was
an Indian country until the advent
of the N. P. graders in 1879 when
military cantonment was estab.
lished at the crossing of the Little
Missouri. when the hunters came
in and say two year afterward
stockmen began placing cattle on
the range. Of the climatic condi.
tions of the country little was
known, but the country being full
of buffalo and other wild game;
the assumption was if such could
live so could domestic cattle.
This was a case of misjudgement,
or want Of proper knowledge OF
