CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS.

The members of the legislature are
apportionment for North Dakota in
anticipation of the gain of another
member Of congress for this state.
There is no doubt but that there will
be three congressmen-unless the
number of members of the lower house
of the national body is reduced far
below the estimates of all the Wash
ington correspondents.
North Dakota's great gain in popu-
1ation assures a third member. But
how shall the state be redistricted-
that's the rub? The voters want dis
tricts instead of electing all three at
large-as the two have been in the
past
The first proposition for division
of the state into districts was to make
the entire western part of one district,
then divide the eastern part of North
Dakota into two-making one for the
northern section and the other for the
southern.
That plan would make one along the
main line of the Great Northern and
another along the main line of the
Northern Pacific. BY the next decade
the state would be entitled to a
fourth. AS the western part of the
state is due for the greatest develop
ment 1t will probably capture that and
that district could be divided as the
eastern half Of the state. This would
give. four congressman to each of the
four corners of North Dakota.
This seems to The Forum to be the
best possible division.
1t is understood that members of
the legislature claim to have enough
votes to divide the state into three
districts by north and south lines
making one Of the eastern edge, a sec
ond of the central part and third
Of the western edge. From the stand
point of communication and conveni-
ence this plan would not compare with
the former

DRAWN OR UNORAWN?
The Food Experts in Controversy Over
Question of Treating Poultry
for the Market.

The current issue of The National
Provisioner contains an article on the
question which local commission men
are reading with considerable interest.
1t says;
"Undrawn poultry decomposes more
slowly than does poultry which has
been either partly or wholly eviscerat-
ed. This is the verdict of the United
States government experts after a
long period of investigation, and it
should settle the agitation against ex-
listing methods which has made trouble
and loss for the trade In many Sec
tons OF the country.
Government investigates.
'The drawn VS.. the undrawn poultry
question is one which has agitated the
food faddists and interested the meat
and poultry trade for some years. The
cranks have detained against the
prevalent custom of marketing poul-
try without removing the heads, feet
or entrails, making all sorts of wild
charges concerning decomposition and
disease. The trade has insisted that
the greatest Of all teachers, expert
ence, has shown but one safe way to
market poultry under modern condi-
tions, and that is undrawn.
For several years the government
has been quietly but thoroughly in
vestigating this question. Other in
yestigations have been made by
state and local authorities and pri-
vate individuals, but in every known
case they have been made along the
oretical lines. The government tests
have not been laboratory tests; they
have been experiments carried on I'M
der actual market conditions, testing
the birds just as they would be tested
in actual trade. Indeed, butchers and
poultry men and their shop facilities

DOLLARS VS.. DIMES.

There is common sense. il not nov
city, in the argument of well known
trade economist, who claims that the
American people owe much Of the
evil of high prices to their practice. os
yielding to the lure Of what he calls
"even prices" Off i.-..t s."1-'. .
To explain: In nearly all but the
department stores, the differences in
prices between one article and anoth-
err of the same general character are
based upon advances of sums ranging
from % cents to 81. The humble pen
ny--the nickel-and even the dime are
ignored by the man who makes the
schedule Of prices, in a majority of
cases.
The man who wishes to buy a hat is
offered an article at So, one at "a, and
one at $3.50. Shoes are offered at s.,
and "a, and $3.50, or SO.
Are the differences of actual value
as large as the differences in price?
Is not the dime or the quarter worth
considering, in the scale of values?
Who ever heard-in America, at
least--of hat costing, for example.
$500, or pair of shoes for which
charge of S2.7O was made? Yet 1t does
not seem unreasonable that the differ
enCe in value between various articles
may be no more than 10 cents-rather
than so cents, in many cases.
The economist holds that true fru-
gality and economy never can come
to the American people until they
learn to recognize the Importance of a
sum less than so cents.
Is there not good deal to induce
consideration in his suggestions?

Travellers Tales

States Attorney Fowler, who has
been in office for some time, has had
some queer and rather funny expert
ences.
Some time ago he was attending a
case in one of the smaller towns of
the county. 1t was criminal case,
and the attorney was present to rep
resent the states interest.
Among the witnesses who were
called by the state was youth who
was known as the incorrigible and
who preferred emphasis to his varieties.
Among the matters involved was an
auger which the witness positively
identified as the property of the par
ties to the suit
But" said the attorney for the
state, do you swear positively that
you know this auger?"
Yes, sir"
"How long have you known it?" and
the fellow scratched his head and then
said: !?
81 have known that auger," and he
shook his finger in1pressively, every
since it was gimlet."

to be made the finest part of the City of Hermosillo. A wide Ala meda, nearly 1900 feet in length with a statue of Hidalgo in the center will be faced on both sides by elegant mansions, built in the American style with handsome and arlistically arranged grounds in front. The lots have been taken already by wealthy people who will proceed to carry out the plan by erection of fine mansions and improving their property. The statue of Hidalgo is installed al- ready, but will remain covered until an appropriate time when 1t will be unveiled with imposing ceremony. Work of macada mixing the streets on each side of the Ala meda has commenced, and will be carried out as rapidly as possible. Broken marble from the marble mountain overlooking the city is used for macadam. When the macadam is laid there will be a fine boulevard or speedway, about 100 feet in width all around the alameda, and it will be about half a mile clear around 1t.
 This fine residence quarter is named El Centenario, in honor of the recent centennial of the repub- lie. General Torres, Governor Cubillas, Lie. E. Camou and many other leading citizens of Hermo- sillo are cited as having taken property and planning to build
 fine mansions.

landed at Tripoli and at Bengazi. the government has not yet confirmed ad- vices to that effect. At any rate, It is known that the warships Pisa, Amalfi, Sardegana,- Tripoli and Varose. with six destroyers, are still lying off the port of Tripoli with guns trained on the town in readiness to open fire at the first sign of Turkish hostility to Europeans there.
 Preparations are also being rushed with furious haste to get the fleet of 40 transports ready for departure for southern Italy with General Caneva' 5 3O,0O0 endorsements for the 10000 Ital- ian troops already either off the Tri- politan coast or already landed there. The transports, with an escort of men of war, are expected to leave early next week.
 No information is vouchsafed by the government concerning plans for the interception of the Turkish fleet re- ported on its way from Beirut to the scene of hostilities, but it is known that dilapidated as is the fleet, the Italians have wholesome respect for it's American commander, Admiral Bucknam Pasha, and will undoubted- readiness to intercept it.

ANGRY POSSE
 NEARLY KILLS
 BURLY NEGRO
Special from United Press.

Leominster, Mass, Sept. 3O.- charged with brutally attackingi two white women near here, a coal black negro, powerful in stature and giving his name as Henry Charles, was ar ralgned in court, today.
 Charles, who later gave his name as William Pleasant of Lincoln, N. H., and was afterwards identified by friend as Abe Hennesey, was cap- tured, yesterday, by an angry posse of men led by women.
 Never in the history of Massachu- setts has this section been so excited than when. after a chase of eight or 10 miles in dense woods, the negro was located cringing under a pile of brush. Cries of Lynch the nigger," had started the sheriff to the scene. He was compelled, literally to tear the clothes from the man in order to pull him away from the crowd of men, women and boys who were beating him to pulp.
 The white woman who were at tackled, Mrs. Fannie Adler. and Mrs. Ben Johnson, are both critically i'll. It was feared the hearing would have to be postponed as they are unable to testify at present.

U. S. PROCLAMATION
 OF NEUTRALITY.

Washington, Sept 30.-The United States governm will issue a pro- clamation of neutrality in the Tripolf- tan war and will give warning to all American vessels to observe the hos tile blockade of the Tripolitan ports. This was the announcement of the State Department, today
 No formal declaration of war has been issued by either Italy or Turkey but this was not considered necessary in the procedure of declaring neu- trality. In the case of the Russian Japanese war no formal declarat ton was ever received by this govern ment.
 As to mediation by this govern ment, the State Department admits that before this country would feel Justified in offering its good offices, some suggestion must come from one of the belligerents.
 Turkey asked the State Department to take care of her subjects in Italy but action was deferred until Secre- tary Knox and perhaps President Taft himself can be consulted.
