WHERE SETTLERS AND
WEALTH COME FROM

Twenty-one Of the Oldest and best
developed agricultural counties in Ne
braska have lost 1913 people in the
last ten years while the state of iowa
has lost 1852 people from some Of
the Oldest counties in the state.
The counties in Nebraska showing
the losses are those in the Missouri
valley about Omaha and Lincoln
where land is worth from 500 to $125
per acre. Those who have left these
farms are the men who have made a
SUCCESS of farming and are sure of
success wherever they go as they take
wealth with them.
1t seems that of the men and wo-
men who are settling the new states
directly west of Nebraska, eastern Ne
braska and western Iowa are furnish
ing a good number of them. If &c.
600 Nebraskans have come on out
further west during the last ten years,
it is sure that more can be interested
in this country.
The state of oregon and numerous
enterprising land and development
companies have arranged an honest
and comprehensive exhibit Of the pro-
ducts of this state which will be shown
at the Western Land Products Ex-
hibition to be held in Omaha Janu-
airy IS to 2S. This is one of the really
big "land shows" to be held in the
United States and will give men and
women Of Missouri river valleys al
most as good an idea of this state as
visit to our forms and orchards.
Those who are making these eX-
hibits for this state are urging every
one living here and having friends in
the east or middle west, to write to
those people and call attention to the
exhibit of our state in Omaha. A
number of western states will be rep
resented. Write a number of letters
today calling attention to the Oregon
exhibited your friends if they can
not come out and see us, not to fail to
go to Omaha and see our PRODUCES.
The Western Land Products Exhibit
ia going to be a big thing for us as it
is going to show our products to thou
sands of people right in the heart of
the country where our new settlers
are coming from.

BAKED RING IN CAKE
TO CHEAT CUSTOMS

Spokane, Wash.-After five months
of waiting a young woman residing
in Schmidt, Stevens county, Wash.
northeast of Spokane, will get her
diamond engagement ring sent her
last July by her fiance, who at that
time was a resident of Cranbrook, B.
c, The ring was found baked into
A wedding cake by Inspector William
Hutchinson of the customs service
when the cake was sent through the
mails. Suspecting that there was
something amiss, the customs Off
cials opened the package, and. after
using a hatpin as a probe, struck
something hard which later proved to
be the plush box surrounding the
ring. Ever since that time the love-
lorn swain has been in communica-
ton with the customs officials, but it
was not until November 80 that the
fine of s24, which would have been
equal to the duty, was paid by the
young man and the ring released. The
ring and case were sent out to the
young woman in the mails by Deputy
Collector ]. E. Daniels as soon as the
fine was paid

prisonment for jealous patriots, says
Il dispatch from Helsingfars.
Deep regret is felt in the province
OF Tavastehus at the retirement OF
Governor Gordle. an able adminlstra-
tor, who has resigned for constitu-
tiona1 reasons" and the names Of
several tools OF the Russian govern
ment are mentioned as likely candi-
dates for the post. This is the fourth
change OF governors among Finfand's
eight provinces since the brief resto-
ration in 1906 OF cohstltutionalism.
Also the chief director of customs
for Helsingfors has been summary
dismissed, and a Russianised Finn Is
in his place His mamie is Colonel
Snehjelm, who won an evil reputa-
ton as chief of police at Wasa and
Helsingfors, but lost his Job on the
return of constitutionalism.
The dismissal Of Herr BOSNIAN the
chief director OF customs came about
through the Russian council of min
listers selling the functions OF the
Finnish government, and ordering
certain measures to be taken to pre-
vent the importtion of firearms into
Finland. The senate advised the Gus
toms authorities to obey the council
OF ministers, but the chief director of
customs pointed out that he could not
do 50 unless the prohibition against
firearms was legallzed in accordance
with Finnish law.
Temporary measures against the
bringing in of firearms were. how
ever, taken, but all kinds of official
bubbles and time-wasting issues arose
with the final result that a good ex-
ecutive job fell to the lot of the much
hated Enehjelm.

Artesian Water at Palouse.


Palouse, Wash.-Residents of Pa
louise are elated because an excellent
and unfailing supply of water was
struck last night, in the well being
drilled by the city. settling the moot
ed question Of an adequate water sup
ply. The flow Of artesian water was
struck at 2S5 feet.
The water was encountered last
night within an hour after a mass
meeting, called to consider the ad-
visibility of continuing the work, had
adjourned. The contract for drilling
the we'll was let to Spokane men at
$40 a foot and for some days tax
payers had been feeling that an enor-
nous expense might be incurred be-
fore a satisfactory flow of water was
reached. To discuss the matter with
the committee of the council in charge
the meeting last night was called, but
no definite action was taken. Within
a short time after the meeting ad-
journed the contractors announced
that they had reached water
which stood more than 200 feet
deep in the well, with an underground
current so swift that 1t washed all the
cuttings away, the sand pump bring
ing up nothing but the clear water
While Palouse's water supply from
three other wells has been pure there
was a feeling that in case of fire the
supply would give out and it might
become necessary to run impure water
from the river through the mains
The matter of drilling another wei
had been under discussion for more
than two years.
The city has just completed NJ
eight-inch brick wall around the cit!
standpipe to protect the water from
the heat Of summer.
