The Student Body.

The student body numbers about
$50. Many of these are men who have
had experience along practical min

of sufficient maturity who have not
had the Requisite high school training
to take up special work, but not to be
candidates for a degree. The busy
curriculum does not allow so much
time for class or social events as at
most other colleges. although the fine
club house and gymnasium, which was
built from subscriptions among friends
and graduates of the college, is the
center of activities outside of class
room and laboratory and contributes
materially to the social life of the
students.

Jamestown, N. d., May 13.--It Is re-

structed last year. provided crop and
business prospects continue favorable.
There are several new townsites and
prospective thrifty towns along the
line which runs from Pingree, Suits
man county, to Wilton near the Mis-
souri, river.
The line runs midway between the
main line Of the Northern Pacific and
the Turtle Lake branch and traverses
country about thirty miles distant
from each. 1t will develop a large and
new farm section of the state, and
promises to be one of the best feeders
which the Northern Pacific has, west
of jamestown. Among it's resources
will be the transportation Of Ignite
coal from the mines at Wilton to the
eastern part Of the state. 1t is ex-
pected the new line will be operated
under superintendent Birdsall from
the headquarters in this city. The road
bed has been constructed in a first
class manner.
With the completion Of this road and
the rapid settlement Of the James river
valley the commercial club of this city
is preparing a campaign for securing
wholesale houses to handle farm ma
groceries and other lines of
trade.

The railroad company was represented
by Judge Palda of Minot, who pre-
sented figures to show that this
branch was being operated at a loss
at the present time and that 1t would
be a hardship on the company to re-
quire them to put on a daily passen-
ger train besides running the daily
freight they now have. On the other
hand, figures were produced to show
that this branch was being operated
not at loss to the company, but that
each year since the road has been in
operation, the receipts from Ambrose
alone has been nearly enough to build
the road. The matter was taken un-
der advisement by the commissioners.

HOW MUCH FORCE
FOR ELECTION?

Jamestown, N. D., May 15.-How
much force a man is entitled to use in
ejecting a neighbor who comes onto his
premises and calls him chicken thief,
and sundry other things, was the
question that local justice of the
peace was called upon to decide when
the hearing in the matter of State VS..
Pearson was had here Saturday.
1t appeared that during the past
week one N. Yung, a farmer residing
in the vicinity of Adrian, became pos
sessed Of an inclination to chide Pear
son for permitting his horses to watt
about on Young's premises.
The testimony as ELECTED by Atty.
Geo. w. Thorp, who appeared for the
Pearson admitted that his horses had
walked about ON Yung's farm, and
promises that it would not happen
again, Yung fingered in conversation.
During the chat the atmosphere be-
same surcharged with emotion--and
loud words were uttered, in the course
of which Pearson was put on the
griddle and called names. These made
sort Of an off-key noise, and Pear
son demanded that Yung leave his
land. He says he told Yung to leave
two or three times, but that his neigh
Dor evinced an inclination to stay on
and presently, when Pearson was
designated as a chicken thief" he
felt shiver that reached to his collar
button, and he made a pass at Yung,
who saw something fit before his gaze
which looked like the picture Of rain
storm.
The hittee came to jamestown and
swore out a warrant, and the hitter
was yanked into custody.
Pearson was perfectly willing to
keep the peace and to give bond that
he would do so, and therefor without
assessing fine, or imposing sentence
the case was dismissed and the two
parties departed for their respective
firesides.

SOME or THE BEST TREES TO

About fourteen acres Of the Edgeley
station Is now devoted to experimental
forest tree planting. Some very inter-
esting and valuable information has
been secured from the behavior of
some OF the varieties Of trees under
trial. A special study Is being made OF
varieties with view of finding species
which are adapted to the prairie coun-
try and which will be of economic

Inc cottonwood, green ash, American

WILLOWS, wild olive, box elder canoe,
and white birch, choke cherry, Colo
rado blue and black hills spruce, lack
and bull pine, and mountain ash have
proven very desirable sorts for gem
eral planting. The Norway and Caro-
INA poplar appear to do well under
favorable conditions, but further trial
VIII be necessary before they can be
recommended for general use. The
trees have been tried which are of
questionable value are the blackberry |
password, honey and black locust bird
and pin cherry. Repeated trials with |
attempts to grow the catalpa has
shown that 1T is not hardy here.
Trials have been made with, Douglas
spruce, Norway and dwarf mountain |
pine, Austrian and Scotch pine and red |
cedar with varying success. The Eu- |
ropean larch has not proven hardy.
The diamond willow is hardy and Is |
making a fairly vigorous growth. but
In all probability 1t will be of no econ
omic Importance to this district unless |
grown in favorable locations where |
plenty of moisture is present
About 10000 forest trees are now
growing on the station farm. The green
ash and cottonwood are two of the
most desirable trees under trial for
general planting. The green ash. es-
pecially, has shown a remarkable
adaptation to almost any condition Of
climate and soil. A block Of two year
old seedlings OF the green ash and cot
tonwood planted in 1908 have made a |
growth of two and four feet respec- |
lively In the past two years. Very |
little growth took place in these trees
in 1910.

VALLEY CITY IS
AFTER CUT RATES

Valley City, N. D., May 1S.-Yester-
day evening J. T. McKenney of ST.
Paul, district passenger agent for the
Northern Pacific, arrived in the city
on No. and met the officers of the
Chautauqua association for a confer
ence relative to the assembly, this sum
mer. Mr.. McKenney stated that the
Northern Pacific management was
very much interested in the enterprise
and were willing to do everything they
could to make 1t a success. He thor
oughly canvassed the situation with
the officials and will report favorably
on the requests made by them.
The Chautauqua people have asked
for rates and while Mr.. Mckinney said
that matter would be considered, he
did not hold out much hope that they
could be obtained. The Northern Pa
ciflc does not make rates of any kind
in North Dakota owing to the "a cent
fare.
In the matter of advertising he be-
lieved the railroads would use their
contracts with papers In this section
Of the state to advertise the meeting
and that they would have their agents
and employees generally work up local
interest. He hoped to be able to Sc
cure streamers or hand bills to assist
in the advertising.
A request was made that the Coop
erstown train make Valley City it's
terminal during the Chautauqua sea-
son and Mr.. Mckinney agreed to in
tercede with the operating department
and do what he could to bring this
about.
The railroad people will do every
thing in their power to assist and will
furnish ample train accommodations
and assist in making the assembly a
success If possible.

charge against Mr.. Morrison, he was
also accused Of having mailed out the
magazines objected to.
Distinguished counsel appeared on
both sides, when the case was argued
before the supreme court. Prominent
among these was Judge Alton B.
Parker, former presidential candidate,
who had been retained to defend the
labor leaders. His principal argument
was that the injunction was an inn
proper interference with the constitu-
tional right of free speech and free
press. He further contended that the
injunction decree was void, at least,
in parts and that his clients could
not be held under the statutes for vio-
lating a void decree.
