Bismarck.-Before the board Of uni
versity and school lands the public in
vestfgation invited by the board with
regard to illegal or irregular sales of
school land was held. B. d. Collins,
the complainant in the Towner county
case, which gave rise to three libel
suits because Of charges made against
members Of the board and citizens of
Towner county, was not present being
called away to the funeral of his
brother, but his attorney, T. HI. Nc
Enroe, Of Fargo, filed complaint
signed by Collins, charging fraud in
the sale Of a parcel Of Towner county
lend ten years ago, and asking that
the sale be set aside. After some
cross interrogations the hearing was
adjourned until April % to give Mr..
Collins an opportunity to be present
in person. Attorney McEnroe did not
make any charges of fraud against
members Of the board, but held that
the sale Of land in question was illegal.
John Almen, Of Grafton; brought
up the question of the grant of a Sec
tion of land to the agricultural COL
lege in 1891 and asked that the state
make provision to reimburse the
common school fund for this section
Of land. A resolution was passed to
bring the matter to the attention Of
the next session Of the legislature with
this end in view. No other cases or
charges were presented.

To Study Flax Growing.

Fargo.-A flaxseed growing educa-
tional campaign is being prepared by
Minneapolis linseed oil manufacturers
following conference with Professor
Bolley, Of the North Dakota state ex-
perimental station. It has developed
that the flaxseed industry is in great
danger. Minneapolis may be deprived
Of ltnseed altogether and only the
education Of faxseed growers along
scientific lines will save the day. The
Minneapolis linseed and paint men will
raise funds to conserve the flaxseed
Of Minnesota, North Dakota and South
Dakota by education. Prof. Bolley was
requested to aid the work Of education
and they will install a laboratory for
him. Professor Bolley will work
among the newcomers and be sure
they know how to farm .1axseed He
advised the linseed men Monday that
It is not an increase in fA:seed that

Released from Asylum.


Devils Lake-A case came up before
Judge Cowan. here, which will prob
ably be heard Of again. On March Z
Thomas Gregg, Of Towner county, was
arrested on a charge Of insanity and
promptly committed to the asylum.
When the man was taken to James,
town, Superintendent Baldwin was un-
able to detect any signs or evidence
Of insanity in the patient. Two BROTH
ers Of the alleged insane man, one
from Montana and the other from
Michigan, hurried % North Dakota to
investigate the case and when they
arrived at jamestown their brother
was paroled by Superintendent Bald
win and placed in their care. Habeas
corpus proceedings were instituted and
the case came up here before Judge
Cowan. Gregg was examined by two
experts who pronounced him perfectly
sane and he was discharged. It ap-
pears that there was great anxiety in
Towner county to dispose Of Gregg's
property, valued at several thousand
dollars, and although he was commit
ted to the asylum the second week in
March, his property was seized and
about to be sold..

Linton.-Reinhold Weisbaar, a Ger

east of Linton, met with horrible ac-
cident which caused his death. The
accident occurred close to his house,
and his wife was witness to the ter
rible scene. He had gone out to water

the windmill refused to work, so he
climbed to the top of the tower to

and then wishing to stop it put his
foot on one Of the fans, which be-

him around two or three times

which disemboweled him and broke his
neck. DR.. Wolverton was Immediately
summoned, but it seems nothing could
be done for the unfortunate man. He
lived about thirty-six hours, but

a wife and two children to mourn

Ryder.-Agent Hoffman, in charge Of
the Fort BertholG Indian reservation,
Is in receipt Of authoritative informa-
tion from government officials to the
effect that 500 railroad officials have
asked permission from the government
to construct railroad from Ryder to
Elbowoods. Elbowoods is situated on
the reservation which explains why
permission is needed from the govern
ment. Elbowoods is situated about
forty miles southeast Of Ryder, on the
Missouri river, and the reservation Of
ficials are stationed there, and It has
always been the principal town on the
reservation. That this line will be
built this summer is a certainty and
will mean that Ryder will become an
important railroad center for this sec.
tion Of the country, as the line will no
doubt be operated az a branch from
this place.

EXCELLENT TRADE IN.
WESTERN CANADA
SPLENDID CROPS, BIG PRICES,
AND PRosPERoUs OUTLOOK
FOR THE FUTURE.

Throughout all of Canada, and espe.
cially in the Western Provinces OF
Canada, there is buoyancy in every
line OF business that is fully war.
fanted by every condition. The crops
OF the past year were what was ex.
pected, and the prices for grain Of all
kinds. put the farmers in a class by
themselves. Many of them are indie.
pendent, and many others have got
well started on the road. The latest
reports are that seeding is we'll under
way In almost every district. and the
prospects are that vastly larger area
than that under crop last year will
be seeded early this spring. In the
Lethbridge district, in Southern AL.
berta, steam and gasoline outfits. hun.
dreds OF them, are breaking up the
prairie at tremendous pace, but
they work night and day. AS soon as
1t becomes dark, gangs are changed,
head light attached, and on, on
through the night until the first
streak of dawn, these giant monsters
with their seven or eight gangs of
breaking plows, keep up the work
Then the more modest farmer is nut.
ting in the longest hours possible with
his teams of horses or oxen. And
+" what will the Country be like in Au-
gust. when these fields have become
yellowed with the literally golden
grain. There will be one vast ex.
panse of wheat field. And there will
be market for it, because it is the
pest grain grown, and the demand
will be everywhere. AS previously in.
timated business throughout Western
Canada is sound and good. The grain
production of 1909 has been the great
factor In establishing the reputation
OF Western Canada, and it is worth
talking about. It surpassed all previ.
GUS records. both in regard to quality
and quantity, and such an achieve.
ment waA by no means easy. The
limit has not been reached, and a
large average increase may be ex.
pected during the next ten years.
There will be odd seasons when a
falling-off will occur, and it is the fall
ing-off that causes alarms and panics
In the commercial world. The plains
have done their duty so far in the
output of grain and it would be rea-
sonable to make occasional allowances
for slowtng-up. The faster the rate OF
increase is now, the sharper will be
the check when the production dimin.
ishes. But there are some unreason-
aole people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
during the next, and at an even faster
rate. These same unreasonable peo.
pie are the ones who see flaws in the
situation as soon as an indication is
given that the startling advances have
not been maintained.

AolTATE COUNTY DIVISION.
Rapid Excitement Of stass Makes
Chanoes In Counties Advisahla.

Rapid settlement Of 8tats Makes
Changss In Counties Advisable.
Fargo.-The rapid growth Of the
state 70 responsible for the proposition
to divide some counties. Many Of
them have territory sufiicient for two
or more and as the population in
creases the demand for better facilities
for transacting county business arises.
In Williams county with the combi-
nation Of the forces at Williston and
the backing Of the voters in the new
proposed county Of divide" 1t begins
to look as though the Forthcoming elec-
ton on the question Of dividing will
result in the proposition being car
ried. In perfecting their combination,
the Wiliston people have gone a step
toward defeating the plan launched by
several Of the small towns in the east
end Of the county, notably Ray. which
proposed the division tf the county in
to three parts, making one county in
the north, one in the east and leav-
ing the remainder Is Williams coun-
ty.
In the proposed new county Of
Divide, thirty y-four townships are in-
cluded. This leaves the presen- coun-
" or Williams with about fifty town.
ships. with Williston, on the ex-
treme east end. as the county seat.
However the railroads run in such
a manner as to make it the logical
center.
The situation in stutsman county,
where division agitation has also been
commenced, is quite interesting. In
the proposed new county Of Pincol
twenty-four townships are included,
The strip set apart for the new coun-
ty is eighteen miles wide and forty
eight miles long, and Medina, on the
main line of the Northern Pacific,
would be the county seat. This di-
vision plan leaves forty townships in
the present county Of Stuttsman.
> Morton county may next be in line
for a division campaign, but up to
the present time no steps have been
taken there.
