ance in regard to the Panama Canal is,
therefore, all the more noteworthy ana
the more gratifying to patriotic Ameri-
cans. That mighty undertaking, as
shown by General Mygatt in The Col.
umbian for May, is nearing successful
completion, and the president OF the
United States to be elected in 1912 will
preside at the opening of the canal to
the commerce of the world. General
Kitchener perceives all that the canal
means for the United States, and his
frank expression of APPROVAL undoubtedly
voices the best judgment of his country
men, and their hearty satisfaction over
the approaching solution of a problem
which has engaged the attention of
statesmen, of capitalists and scientists
almost from the time of the discovery
of America. Lord Kitchener's terse, Sig
nifcant utterances will carry more
weight, both here and abroad, than all

REJOICE and GRIEVE
over COUNTY DIVISION

Minot, n. D., June 1.-The an
nounce:nent of the creation of both
Burke and Renville counties has
caused no little comment throughout
the city and speculation is rife as to
the effect the division will have on
county politics.
Local attorneys were busy yester-
day investigating the mode of proce-
dure to be followed in the coming
elections by the new counties OF
Burke and Renville. Saturday being
the last day SET for the filing of petit
tons, it will be impossible for party
candidates to have their names placed
on the primary election ballots, and
as the county central committees can
fill all vacancies only up to June 9Th,
it is not probable that there will be
any vote taken on county officials at
the primary elections in the two Off
springs of old Ward.
The majority of the attorneys agree
that after the governor has complied
with the law and appointed the COM
missioners and named the temporary
county seat, county officials will be
appointed to act until the fall, when
independent candidates may have

Three CANDIDATES FOR
LEGISLATOR FROM KIDDER

Dawson, N. D., June 1.-The an
nouncement of w. P. futile as a
candidates for representative from
the Twentieth district has been pub
lished. There are now three candi-
dates-W. P. futile and H. S. Wood
from Kidder county, and D. R. Street
er of Emmons.
The trustees of the M. E. church
met at A. Bope's last Tuesday, and
made arrangements to commence the
erection of the church edifice at once.
The bids for the lumber were turned
in, and the lowest bid was accepted.
J. E. Rhodes will do the work.
J. A. Coulter and little daughter
Helen left last evening for Clear
Lake, Wisconsin, and Iowa points.
Little Helen will visit with her
grandfather at Clear Lake, while her
father makes the trip farther on.
They will visit in the Twin Cities on
their return, being absent about two
weeks.
In the state declamatory contest
held at Grand Forks, Miss Ruth Wer-
ner of Dawson, who won first place in
the declamatory contest at James
town, and represented the high school
of that place at Grand Forks, again
captured more honors.

leave but one election in the new
counties in the place of two in all
the others.

Mn ASSESSMENT SHEETS
MAKE INTERESTING DOPE

Medora, N. D., June 1.-While the
county officers were moving the rec
ords into the new vault at the court
house, the writer saw the book con-
tanning an assessors list for the first
assessment after the organization OF
Billings county in 1886. The book
contains 120 pages. The assessments
of both real and personal property
are here recorded for SO, 81 and 'SS;
the real property takes up II pages
for three years, and the personal
property occupies IL pages. OF the
II pages of real estate the Northern
Pacific Refrigerator Car Co. descrip-
lions take up IL. According to the
census columns attached, the number
of Inhabitants of the county was 24O.
One interesting feature of the book
is where Theo. Roosevelt was as
sessed. He paid tribute on 20 horses,
QUO cattle and two wheeled vehicles
in 1886; total valuation of $11,210.

He gives in his book comprehensive
and detailed statement of the workings
of the plans in that and other cities from
first-hand knowledge Under the Des
MONIES plan, the ward system of gov
eminent has been abolished, party con-
troll eliminated, direct responsibility Sc
cured, and the supremacy OF the people
in their own affairs re-establlshed.
Hampton's Magazine for June is a
tremendously interesting bundle OF Big
Things. The first installment Of Ed
1nond Rostand's great drama, Chan
tecler" is the opening feature, and a few
pages removed from it is the continual
ton of Commander Peary's own story
of THE Discovery of The North Pole"
In the magazine field there have been
only two big "stories'' this year-Peary's
and "Chantecler-and Hampton's got
both of them.
A most unusual story in the locale 1t
presents is Thomas Samson Miller's
1.-The Shipbulders," a tale of the west
coast of Africa. 1t is one of several
stories by the same author, all located
in the same little known corner of the
world that The Red Book Magazine is
publishing from time to time.

night, June 18th, in his readings and
poetry, under the auspices of the
Billings County Corn Growing Con-
test association. 1t is said that Mr..

ance in his native county.
Superintendent Kitchen, who is
managing the corn contest, says that
great interest is being shown in the
corn contest. There are 1876 school
children engaged in raising the seed

ing $275 will be given out when the
corn is judged.

STILL PLENTY OF Land IN
WILLlSTON LAND DISTRICT

Wiliston, N. D., June 1.-The Off
cial report of the local land office,
made in July, 1909, showed an aggre.
gate amount of lands, within the dis
trict, subject to entry, of 648,3O0
acres. At the present time there are
about 100000 acres still open to en-
try.
The abandonment of the Nesson ir-
rigation project and the restoration
of the Nesson and Grinnell valleys to
settlement will mean the opening to
settlement of thousands of acres of
rich farming country. Squatting on
this land will be permitted after June
Is, and filings can be made July rs
of this year.

my FRIEND, THE INDIAN"
The sympathetic appreciation of the
good qualities of the red man evinc-
ed by Maj. James Mclaughlin in his
book of "reminiscences of life spent
very largely among the aboriginal
people quite justifies the title. The
work, which is just from the press
of Houghton, Mifflin & Co., Boston,
bespeaks that intimate knowledge of
the Indian which is the result of
short range study of people too lit
tie understood. Major McLaughlin's
work does not profess to be study in
ethnology. 1t is an exposition of In
dian character through the means of
series of stories from life and the
stories have literary flavor of their
own, due, no doubt to the treatment
accorded them by Major McLaughlin's
editor and collaboration in the work,
w. B. Hennessy, who is now writing
the history of North Dakota for the
Tribune, and who spent many months
with the major in the Indian country
while handling the vast amount of ma
terial gotten together by Major Nc.
Laughlin during the third of a cen.
fury he spent in the atmosphere of
the smoke of the wigwam.

Way TO DICKINSON

Minneapolis, June 1.-Daniel Blake
Russell, said to be the North Dakotan
who recently made an unsuccessful
attempt to prove his identity as
son of the late William Russell of
Melrose, Mass, who left an estate
valued at million dollars, registered
at the Hotel Dyckman today. Mr..
Russell spent 1923 days in the courts
of Melrose, but he failed to establish
his identity. Daniel Blake Russell OF
Pasadena, CAL, was accepted as the
heir. The real Daniel Blake Russell
disappeared in 1885.

The new county of Ward, which Is
all that is left of old imperial Ward
after the decision of the supreme
court on Saturday, is what was term
ed the Gooseneck county during the
fight for division two years ago.
Glenburn and the upper three
townships that would belong to Ward
on an east and west division have
been showed into Renville county,
while Kenmare and the Des Laos
bridge are left in Ward.
The Goseneck includes five town.
ships traversed by the 500 road.
Ryder, Carpio, Foxholn, Kenmare,
Burlington, Donnybrook, Des Laos,
Berthold and Sawyer are the princi-
pal towns outside of Minot, left In
the new Ward county.
1t is naturally supposed that bow
bells will secure the temporary cou1-
ty seat, at least, of Burke county,
while Mohall claims cinch on the
court house location OF Renville.
These two towns are accordingly
iubilant over the decision.

AUTO TRUST IS COMING.

Who is this newcomer in the ranks Of
the nations capitalists? He is the max
er and seller of toy-of the most pop
ular toy of the ages. With hand of
magic he devised that modern sensa-
ton and wonder, the automobile, and he
proclaimed its merits so effectively that
he has swept the nation into frenzy
of buying. So great has been the suc-
cess attending his efforts that if he
should be able during 1910 to meet the
demand already made upon him for his
product he could truthfully boast a VOL
ume of business near to quarter of a
billion dollars. AS it looks now, his
probable production for the coming
twelve months, according to conservative
estimate, will reach total of around
l6O,0O0,OOO And for his entire output
If he lives up to his reputation-he
will get cash!
There is much speculation today as
to whether the price of the motor car
will remain where it is. Many predict
that the day of overproduction is not far
mobiles a drug on the market and the
price cut almost in two. People point
back to the bicycle and declare that mot
or car manufacturers will be as anxious
to dispose of their product as were the
makers of the two-wheeled pleasure We
hicle-that they will strike out on des-
perate hunt for buyers; that when the
realization comes that the number of
consumers is limited; competition will
loosen up the terms and hammer down
the closing figures of bargain To-
those, however, who are closely follow
the development of the motor car bust
ness such a elimination seems hardly
probable. Organization, consolidation of
forces, is necessarily at work in this
new industry. With the passing of the
ownership and control of accessory
plants turning out the more essential
parts into the hands of the big makers,
the competition of the small producer
who is merely on assembler of parts
will become nominal only, and may be
entirely wiped out in case Of any sudden
slump in the demand The powers that
be- will regulate the supply to meet the
of the public to consume. Thus
the price of the product will remain
where it is, enabling the motor car mag
nate to continue to reap bonanza divl-
dends based on his "expan ded' capital
