can in the movement "Open River to

river proposition Is purely one of lower

tage. Where there are thousands of
tons of freight being moved into a
territory, as there is into ours, few
cents per cwt. lower means a very
large sum in the aggregate.
AS the Open River Transportation
Company's rates are from As on first
class to 5 C. on the lowest class, lower
than rail rates from coast points, we
have no hesitancy in asking you to
give this movement the widest public.

reduction of rates will be enjoyed and
the territory contiguous to Lewiston

Taft Stands by BaIIinger.
President Taft has intimated to
callers that he intends to stand by
Secretary Ballinger, for he is con-
vinced of Mr.. Ballingers innocence
either of wrongdoing or of improper
motives. The President says he does
not consider that Ballinger's accusers
have made out any case against him.
On top of this announcement from
the White House comes the reitera-

to hold on to his position, notwith-
standing a renewal of the reports that
he is soon to resign.
Exposition Fight Warm.
The battle of the cities for the big
show in the matter of celebrating the
completion of the Panama Canal is on
in earnest with San Francisco and
New Orleans In the lead.
New Orleans bases her claim for
Government recognition on the fact
that she is the natural canal port and
besides the Pacific Coast has just
been recognized in the exposition line,
while it has been a long time since
the south has had a slice of this par
ticular kind of pie.
San Francisco on the other hand
comes with something like $4,000, 900
subscribed for the exposition, and the
claim that it's further from Frisco to
Seattle than from New Orleans to
st. Louis so the sectional claim is
without merit.
Country Wild on BattIeships.
That the United States has gone

especially in the construction of bat

investigation they found the pigs

on starting up the engine the

being liberated the pigs started
home, and the owner. who saw

Roseau. MINI, Dec, 14.-The first
steps have now been taken towards
constructing an extensive road and
drainags system Ia the territory lying
north OF the Great Northern railroad
between VarTosd and Roseau lake
The petitions have been set in circula-
ton, one In the Mud creek region and
the other in the Warroad section. This
important work has been delayed until
the western and central part of the
county had been surveyed and SUI
able rangemeats made for building
roads and providing for outlet OF sur
face water. The country between
Warroad and Roseau lake is rich In
fertile land and well adapted to grain
and stock raising. Due to an impas-
sible tract lying south of this land, no
attempt has been made to develop the
country thus far. although several
tracts have been proved up.
II the people OF Roseau and Warroad
and those living along the territory
unite their efforts in prevailing upon

dertake this important Improvement.
assurance is already given by every
member Of the board that 1t will be
done. AS most of the land benefited
belongs TO the state, the immediate
burden of the expense will fall upon It..
The intention OF the state Is to build
a road with ditch alongside. two
miles apart. running north and south
and east and west making every sec
ton accessible
