the famous sections of the west nam

Salmon projects. He stated that ev-

ed to remain in the towns. He was
anxious to see the same spirit in this
city and it would be only through a
concerted action on the part of all
the people that Mountain Home
woul dsucceed and the lands given
the value they deserved. He made
strong plea for assistance for the
Elmore Irrigation Company, and con-
sidered this the critical period in the
history of the company. He strongly
urged that the people assist the COM
pany in raising funds in order to get
through the Carey Act segregation
and made the point very clear that
this is the time for such action He
stated that the company was cooper
ative in all its workings and the bur
den should not be shifted to the
shoulders of three or four and re-
suits of a satisfactory nature expect
eo. He is anxious that the people un-
derstand that the organization was
not Seattle company, nor a Mime
apolis affair, but a company compos-
ed of all the water upsers under the
Great Western system. He thinks the
time has come for united action and
more harmonious spirit on the part
of the citizens in Mountain Home.
Following his remarks he introduc-
ed a chart MAPPED out in squares re-
presenting various denominations
running from 1850 to 500 and ask
ed for subscribers in order to defray
the preliminary expenses.
1t was the desire to raise about
$250O in order to pay off the en-
gineer, and apply for the segrega-
ton. Part of this sum was readily
subscribed and the balance is be-
Ing raised among the business men

segregation will be applied for and
no doubt secured.
Mrs F. b. Daniels and Mrs. J. W.
Hughes gave very entertaining read

cuted a violin duet as advertisement
to the more serious proceedings OF

The remarks of =. j. Colthorr

are so essential to the success Of a

Under a schedule of sixty-one
and with house of 126-the present
number, the proposed reapportion-
ment bill as it will be presented to
the house on next Tuesday, lines the
ninth congressional district UP as
follows:
Marshall, Roseau and Kittson,
one senator and three representa-
tives, which means the addition of
one representative
Beltrami and Koochiching is made
new district with one senator and
one representative.
Clearwater, Norman, Mahnomen,
Red Lake and Pennington. One
senator and one representative for
Norman and one for Mahnomen and
Clearwater and one for Pennington
and Red Lake.
Polk remains the same as at pres
ent.
This arrangement was agreed up
on only after repeated conferences
between the members of the legisla-
ture in both houses from the. ninth
district and while it is not all that
could be desired it is about the best
arrangements that could amicably be
arranged
The joining of Beltrami and
Koochiching apears to be satisfact-
DRY in both counties, whose interests
are largely Identical.
Now all that remains to be done
is for the house and senate to ease
their consciences by passing the bill
The house bids fair to get into that
state of mental comfort but the SEN
ate still looks stubborn.

COUNTY OPTION.

"The people behind this movement
are dead in earnest. If this legisla-
ture fails to pass county option bill
one will be passed in the FUTURE
This was the sentiment expressed
by w. I. Nolan, representative from
Minneapolis, in discussing the Rines
measure on the floor just before the
house slaughtered it on Tuesday of
this week.
81 want to tell you that county
option is a bum proposition and 1
want to tell you that I have seen the
kind of people who favor it and
some Of them at times have pretty
good snout FULL" was the substance
of the argument of Frank Minette
of St. Cloud, in opposing the bill.
Mr.. Minette said that twenty years
ago he was brewer.
These two expressions are cited as
more or less representative of the
feeling on each side of the question
which has grown in to the politics
Of Minnesota until it is one of the
biggest issues confronting the vot-
ers.
1t isn't likely that the county op-
ton wave has reached it's crest. Mr.
Nolan probably was a good prophet
when he said the day would come
when a county option bill would
adorn the state statutes Two years
ago there were forty votes cast in the
house for this kind of bill; this
week there were fifty, with one
county optionist absent, gain of
eleven votes. If like gain is made
during the next two years, the bill
will be sure to pass.
Another evidence of the far reach
ing effect of this issue is revealed in
the determination of the senate to
take up the bill despite the action of
the house. This means that the SEN
ate will have it's day of oratory and
that every senator will be recorded
for or against the measure, and the
wrong sort of vote may mean re-
tirement to private life for more
than one ambitious solon. 49,.
The underlying principle of coun-
ty option is too clearly American to
be easily cast into oblivion by
thinking people. The right of a
community to expires it's desires as
to what may or may not be done is
as American as the constitution it.

Owe A Debt to Manahan.

Some of the newspapers are in
dulging in some petty filings at Jim
Manahan, because he has joined the
Progressives: They seem to forget
that the state of Minnesota owes a

be able to pay, for his services in the

railroads.-Cannon Falls Beacon. :

is q presumption of the friends Of
the beer brigade that will some day
be badly shattered. d
County option does not mean state
wide prohibition, but it does mean
that in those sections of the state
where there lis a majority opposed
to the liquor traffic, such traffic will
be curbed. To the unprecedented
mind this sounds like fair propos-
,ition.
