OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

| There are great many e&-Oenators
| and Members who hang around this
city making living out of their sup
posed influence in Congress and the
Departments. One ex-senator now
located here is constantly alluded to
as conductor on the underground
railroads of Washington, meaning
that his influence is great in govern
mental matters, and his services are
in demand in nearly all the important
measures requiring favorable action.
These men repudiated at home by
their constituents abandon their states
aud:come here to profit by the pres
tige of their former positions. They
are especially active during the ses-
sions of Congress, before which they
often appear with retainers on both
sides of pending matter, SO
that it makes no difference which way
it goes they are on the winning side,
and their retainers are enlarged into
substantial fees based on them sup
posed success.
One of the most valuable historical
documents in the country is the orig
inal will of Washington. which IS Of
record and among the archives OF the
Clerks Office OF Fairfax Co9e5y, Nlr-
ginia, just across the Potomac river
opposite this city. This will Is IN
Washington's own handwriting and
was penned in 1899, the year be died
An order has just been issued by the
Judge of the judicial district II which
Fairfax Co., is situated, permitting
the Librarian of Congress 70 photo
graph this will. 1t will not be reuoy-
ed from the Clerks Office, and the
photographs must be made in the
presence of Mr.. Berwick, the expert
who has restored the will as far as
possible to its original Librarian Of
Congress and two for the County
Clerks Office of Fairfax county, and
no duplicates, prints or reprodle-
tions in any form will be permitted
at any time. From the nature of this
order it appears that this particular
county Office has sort of monopoly of
this particular instrument and propos-
poses to keep it.
The White House is undergoing is
usual summer renovation and most of
it is closed to visitors. A few clerks
and many guards are still on duty but
they have but little to do. There is
not a cabinet officer in the city and
departmental business is at stand
STILL The Post Office Department is
still working out details for the pos
tails saving banks and hope to have
someIinstalled by October LIST. Sew
eral deposits have already been re-
ceived here from uniformed people,
who seemed to think all this business
is to be conducted directly with the
Department here. This is not the
case as this Office has no authority TO
transact any such business, as il
must all be done through the local
designated post Offices in the several
states.
The Census Office is now having its
troubles, more than contemplated by
law, and one of the most serious
arises over the contests between rival
cities and towns as to population.
Many of these are jealous of their
local rivals, and all sorts of schemes
are resorted to in order to maintain
ascendancy. Already protests are
coming in Directing to the figures
given by rival towns, and the office is
investigating some of these COM
plants.

North Dakota Prosperous

Assessment schedules sent to
the state board Of equalization
which met last week, show the in
creased acreage sown to crop this
year over that of last year. From
From the report of thlrty-eight
then heard from there is an in
crease of 799.592 acres assessed,
which with all counties will mean
over 100000 increase over 1909.
The statements of the board
show the wonderful growth of the
state in the past twelve years. The
growth in the assessed valuation
in that period is $l86,677,24O. The
largest increase being from 1908
to 1909, which was close to fifty
million dollars or $49,632,978 ac-
curately. Increase in revenue from
taxation has been over million
dollars, or 81, ,O08, ,261. The largest
increase in revenue was also dur
ing the last year, when it jumped
from 81, 1888 to 81, ,4l9,S42.

Extreme Crop Situation

1t is asserted by travelling men
that Richland county, part Of Cass
around Armenia, and Trail around
Hatton. and part Of Stark and Bill
lings counties have the best crops
in the state. The crop situation
of North Dakota is rather pecu liar
this year. The extreme eastern
and northern edges Of the state
have good crops. From Dickin-
son to Beach they will have as
large crops as last year While in
the Red river valley they range
from fair to good and in the cen
trail part they go from bad to worse.
From the western part Of Morton
county to the western boundary
conditions are favorable.

Save Straw for Feed

The farmers of North Dakota
where threshing is going on are
saving the straw for feed. The
usual annual destruction Of such
products of the threshing machines
will not be seen this year as every
scrap of feed in North Dakota will
have value this year and will be
saved. Some of the farmers are
putting small tanning mills into
operation on their farms and are
cleaning wheat, taking out SCREEN
ings and making their own feed.
These economies will in manner
partly overcome the effects Of a
short crop.
