new ROCKFORD
IOINCORP0RA1E

New Rockford, N. D., Jan. s.
(SpeciaD-A petition has been circu-
lated and largely signed asking for
an election on the question of incor-
poration. New Rockford now has a
population of 1900 but has no form
of city government. This is the sec
ond attempt at incorporation and it
it thought that it will carry this
time as there is no objection except
on the part Of a few citizens who
advance purely personal reasons for
their objection to the move. It is
expected that the G. N. will locate
switching yards here and that makes
it more necessary than ever that
there be some sort of a city govern
ment. The county commissioners
are compelled to call the election
under the laws of the state when
sufficient petition is presented them.

WISCONSIN MAN
HAS Been LOST

Cooperstown, N. D., Jan. 8.-(Spe-
al)-Some anxiety is felt concern
ing the whereabouts of young man
by the name of Ed. Walls who is
supposed to have started out to the
country on New Years eve to visit
with a friend. Nothing has been
heard of him since that time. There
are some people here who do not
believe the young man is lost but
that he has returned to his home in
Wisconsin. If the latter is the case
he left without his suit case and
without saying goodbye to his sister
who is employed in one of the stores
in the city. If he started for the
country on that evening he surely
persisted as it was one of the cold
est nights of the year and he was
without proper clothing to stay out
for any length of time. The sheriff
assisted by number of deputies has
made as thorough a search of the
neighborhood as is possible under
the circumstances but has been un-
able to find any trace of the young
man. Word from his home in Wis
consin is to the effecs that he has not
arrived there as yet.

Wahpeton, Jan. o.-(Specia) I'D.
E. Morden Of this city is in receipt
of letter from Joseph Till in which
he states that he has arrived in
Parks, Austria. Till, whose name
and history is familiar to every res"
ident of the northwest says that he
received warm welcome from
friends Of former days and that he
is supremely happy at being with his
relatives again. He asks that an
English paper be sent to him that
he may not forget the language of
the country in which he has suffer
ed so much. Till expects to return
to this country at some future time
but cannot say just when circum-
stances will make it possible for him
to return.

NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST

accident as near as can be learned
is that Slinde arrived in Krem, tran
sacted his business and about eleven
o'clock in the evening left the city
stating that he was going home by
way of a neighbor's from whom he
had borrowed an overcoat. This
was the last that was seen of him
until his body was found. The team
had evidently strayed from the road
unnoticed by the driver as the night
was intensely dark. The wagon was
overturned and only one arm was
visible when the rescuers found the
outfit. Both horses were dead, evil
identity being unable to make their
escape and dying from the intense
cold. 1t is claimed here that Severt
was under the influence of liquor
when he left town and it is said that
it is to his condition that his death
is due.
He leaves a wife and three months
old child to mourn his untimely TAX
ing off.

HORSE Thief
BREAKS JAIL

Steele, Jan. 8.-(SpeciaD-L. J.
Hobbs, who was confined in the
county Jail awaiting trial on the
charge of stealing horses has left for
parts unknown and a reward has
been offered for his capture. Hobbs
has been in jail for a number of
months and has been allowed many
liberties and has always been on
hand when wanted, but Thursday
morning when the sheriff went to
the Jail with the prisoners break.
fast it was found that Hobbs was
gone. There was a bunch of cell
door keys hanging in the court
house and it is supposed that some
one gave them to Hobbs and thus
the escape was made. There is con.
siderable speculation here as to why
the man, who had plenty of chance
to escape during the warm weather
would have waited until one of the
coolest nights of the year.

SICK ON THE PRAIRIE;
dies IN THE STORM

Bowman, N. D., Jan. 8.-(SpeciaD
Sletten, homesteader liv-
ing four mile southeast of town,
died while lost on the prairie with
his companion Hans Lee, a neigh
boring homesteader. Both gentle
men had been visiting at the home
of neighbor and were returning
home when Sletten was suddenly
taken seriously ill., Lee started to
carry the man to the nearest house
but the load was too great to carry
through the snow banks. Lee was
placed in a hard position as if he
left the man he would hardly be able
to find him again if he secured as
sistance and he could do him little
good by remaining with him. He
finally decided to stay by his friend
however but he could render him no
aid and Sletten died during the
night. Sletten has no relatives here
and his friends in the east have been
communicated with and nothing will
be done with the remains until word
comes from the east. A post mortem
examination will be held as it is not
thought Soften could have died from
exposure as in that case Lee would
have also suffered.

STATE court HAS
NO JURISDICTION

Spokane, WASH, Jan. 8.-(SpeciaD
Paul Clein, convicted of murder in
the first degree by jury in the Spo-
kane county superior court last fall
on the charge of killing Jan Lewan-
doski, has been granted a new lease
of life. Judge J. Stanley Webster
holds that a state court has no jur.
isdiction to try or punish a person
for a crime committed upon a gov
eminent reservation, and in grant
ing motion for new trial he said
there is no evidence that the body
was dragged to the place where it
was found on March 81, 1909. Fred
c. Pugh, prosecuting attorney of
Spokane county, says in a note to
Joseph B. Lindsey, United States
district attorney, that while he looks
upon the order as equivalent to a
dismissal, he believes that proof of
guilt is strong, adding that he will
furnish evidence, records and data
in his possession with view to
bringing the prisoner to justice
Clein manifested his satisfaction
when Judge Webster granted a new
trial, but in conversation afterward
he appeared to take it as a matter
of course, stoutly maintaining his
innocense, as he has since the night
of his arrest.

HAS HARD FIGHT
TO retain Land

Spokane, WASH, Jan. 8.-(Special)
Denver p. DaytcI, homesteader
in northern Idaho, has come into his
own after battling for 13 years in
the courts of the country to hold his
timbered claim near Naples. Joseph
Doran made final Ave years proof
on the homestead and after receiv-
ing the receipt he sold the land I'M
der warranty deed to the Humbird
Lumber company, Weyerhaeuser
concern, for $1,000. The government
stepped in two years afterward and
compelled Doran to readvertise and
make a second firal proof. Dayton
then filed contest against Doran
and the lumber company, alleging
that the original settler had not
lived on the claim and had not cul-
tivated it as required by law, de-
claring also that the sale was frau
dulent and that the bargain for the
transfer was made before the final
proof was filed. Officials of the land
Office at Occur d'Alene, Idaho, de-
cided in favor of Dayton, who was
also sustained by the general land
Office on an appeal, as did Secretary
Ballinger, to whom the case was sent
on an appeal for the land Office de-
cision. The claim is 100 acres and
with it's timber is worth between
$4,000 and $4,000.

Planting Of Native Trees Is Advised
Says Cottonwood Is Fast Grow

ting Trees is First Of Year.

When God made North Dakota, he
must have intended that a great
many trees were to be planted in
the future by those that were to live
there. He left such vast stretches
without trees that one is forced to
this conclusion. Fortunately the
ground is not filled in entirely yet
with trees and so there is some ex'
cuse for writing little in their fav-
or.
And this is a good period to write
on such a topic for at this season Of
the year, the tree agent is walking
up and down in the earth seeking
whom he may devour. And while I
am not going to say very much
about the tree agent, yet it is we'll
to caution those that do not know
him, that it is we'll to be on ones
guard. Trees are a commercial pro-
position and they have their market
prices the same as do wheat and
cattle. You have wheat to sell in
the fall but you do not figure on get
ting dollar or so more per bush
ell than the market price. But the
tree agent does figure on the ignor-
ance of the farmer in regard to the
prices Of trees and proceeds to
charge him from two to three times
what the trees are worth in the
market. The exception to this
statement is so rare that it only
proves the rule.
If you want to find out what trees
are worth, look up some ads in re-
liable farm paper, one which guar
antees it's advertisers, and select 3
conservative advertiser and find out
his prices. If the agent meets his
prices, then buy of the agent,-1f
the agent represents reliable firm.
We would suggest however that one
order through a catalog of relia-
BILE. Regarding the kinds, we will
have something to say about this in
a moment.
We find a few kinds of trees ma
tive here. Those kinds that do grow
here are not accidents to this reg
ion. They are growing here, pre-
sumably, because they are the ones
best fitted to the purpose. Doubt
less many other kinds tried to make
a start but failed. Until we find a
sort that is undoubtedly better than
our native ones, it will be best to
stick to the native kinds. We know
they can withstand very severe con-
ditions but we see them doing it
every year in the gulches. I have
heard the argument that our native
trees are not adapted to plant as
windbreaks on the farms for the
very fact that they do grow in the
gulches and therefore in too favor
able places. Do not be deceived by
such arguments. This argument
may hold true for the cottonwood
after a fashion, but not for the
others.
We should plant then, our native
trees. These are in short; the box
elder, the green ash, the elm, and
the cottonwood. Let us make the
definition of cottonwood big enough
so as to include in it the Norway

stupendou. Volcanic Outbur.t.

One OF the greatest volcanic out
bursts In history Is going on In the
Island of Savii, In German Samoa.
This volcano broke out three and q
half years ago, but 1t Is 30 far away
from the usual lines of travel across
the Pacific that but little has been
learned of its activity. 1t has been In
constant eruption the whole OF that
time and must have thrown out a far
more enormous mass Of molten matter
chan has any other volcano within his
toric times. The fiery river that flows
from a great rent in the side Of the
mountain Is eight miles wide and has
buried under It's lava about 80 square
miles of country. The activity of the
volcano and the amount of the flow
are increasing. Hills 900 feet high
have been submerged and valleys as
deep have been filled to their rims
with the molten rock. The outflow
Of the volcano has been estimated to
be at least 300,o 900 tons q minute. BY
the side of such q mass as that, kept
up steadily for more than three years,
the disgorgings of vesuvius would bs
no more than a spoonful.
As the Island OF Savii is very sparse
u inhabited. even by the natives.
while Its white population consists Of
. few missionaries and traders. there
has been but little damage to life or
property In the neighborhood of the
volcano. To tas seismologist, how.
ever. this island offers a fruitful sub
Jet for study, although It's remote sit
uation has Is yet kept 1t out of the
