NEW STAMPS UNIQUE

PARIS, May 2.-Philatelists will
soon have a novelty to add to their
[coillections in the new french colony
stamps for Dahomey and. Senegal
The postal administration has just &C.
cepted the designs of NJ de Neziere,
to whom it had applied, and the en-.
gravers have already started to work
on the corners, but the completed dies
are scarcely expected to be ready
much before the end Of the year.
The artist has followed the modern
taste for symbolical figures illustra-
tive Of the country and for Dahomey
the stamp will show a native climbing
up palm tree to harvest the oil from
the nuts. In the four corners will be
represented the fantastic animals
adored a. gods or fetiches by the
medicine men of the negroes, and
the whole will be a picturesque little
miniature souvenir of the african pos
session.
The Senegal stamp will give a
sketch Of the cotton market in an A.
rican village, with many native hg-
ures introduced. Though nothing has
yet been said about it, there is every
probability that the French protecto-
rate over Morocco also will produce
a new series Of stamps as soon as
regular postal service has been or
ganized.

.counteract this tendency, to moder-
ate extent, at anv rate, by the reten-
ton in the course Of instruction for
midshipmen, Of the primary principles
Of steamship, as exemplified on
sailing ship. Tne future officers Of
the navy are taught to. hand, reef and
steer, to differentiate the ropes and
to pull them;-to manage ship under
varying weather conditions, and to
Judge the effects of wind and waves.
In one Of the buildings of instruction
they have q mast, with spars, sail, and
rigging OF a real ship, full size, upon
which they learn to go aloft, and what
to- do when they get there. It has
been suggested that the new genera

ine,t who are growing up in an atmo-
sphere of steam and machinery, would
be all the better for some instruction
along the same lines.

under the government plan of improve
ment, including the levee system.
"The late General Comstock, one
Of the most accomplished engineers
of the U. s. army, testified most in
terestingly before Congress on this
subject few years ago, and showed
conclusively that. the liw water plane
between Cairo and the Gulf is not ris-
ing. It is a fact; however, that the
water in the river rises higher during
periods of flood than formerly. This
is due to the completion Of the levee
system, thereby combining all the water
to the natural channel of the river,
and to the thorough draining Of many
states in the valleys of the upper
rivers, which causes the rain waters
to rush down much more rapidly than
of DID," ....

CHINESE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Yuan. shi-kai on the Governments
Aims.-Finance Uppermost Now

PBGlNG, April 29-Yuan Shi-Kai,
President of the Chinese Republic,
delivered his first presidential mes
sage in the form Of a speech at the
opening of the session of the Advisory
Council, which is practically a provis-
ional senate. The President proclaim
ed that the principles of the Chinese
Government must be the maintenance
of order in the interior, the achieve
,ment of progress, and the retention
of external friendships which are nec-
essary to the existence of China.
The foreign Powers in recent years,
he said, had adopted peaceful ana
Just attitude, and had shown a desire
for the interests of China which calls
for gratitude. The Chinese should
learn to understand and treat foreign
ers with friendship and candor, and
should rejoice over the establishment
of a republic after thousands of years
Of despotism.

,Minot Independent: The Independ-

tai in simplifying the contest for Con-
gresham for the Third district, in

from the race of all but one of the
candidates. We have no particular
criticism to make at this time con-
corning the candidacy of Mr.. Davis
and Mr.. Devine, although we do not
believe that they have any show to
win. If the citizens of Minot will
unite on Alfred Blaisdell his election
will be absolutely certain and right
now Mr. Blaisdell can show the great
est strength in the city by great odds
that has been developed by any of the
local. candidates. His acquaintance
over the district is wide and by rea-
son of the clean record he made while
Secretary of State for four years, he
will run like whir Hisd in practically
every precinct.
Mr.. Blaisdell has wonderful ca
pacity for work. He is devoting all of
his time. to his campaign. He has al
ready compl~ ted most Of the detail
work and will soon start on tour or
the district. His principles are sound,
and he will be a credit to this district
if successful We are for Mr.. Blais-
dell because We believe he'll make
good when he's elected.

FLOOD STORIES
over ESTIMATE
Robert NJ. McWAdo.

Bismarck Tribune Washington Bureau.
WASHINGTON, May 3-Senator-
elect Dansdell, of Louisiana, acting
chairman of the Rivers and Harbors
Committee of the House, just returned
from a thur If the flooded section of
his state, says: while many pre-
cious lives have been lost in the floods
of the Mississippi, and the destruc-
ton of property is enormous, neither
has been anything as great as the
press accounts indicate. = y ~ :
!.eUp to this date, nothing like ,ine-
half of the usually protected BY levees
is under water. The extent of the
flood area is estimated to be between
1000 and 10000 square miles out Of
the 5000 miles protected by levees.
The floods, while the greatest since
the Civil War, demonstrate that the
levees will shut out the waters and
protect the country from overflow.
"A striking issuance Of this protec-
ton is found in the upper Yazoo dis
trict, a distance of 124 miles in the
Northwestern portion Of Mississippi,
which Major Dabney, is U. s. CHIEF
Engineer. In this district, owing to
it's better financial conditions, the le-
. wees are built much stronger with
greater base, crowniug and contents
than any of the other levees In the
river They have withstood all foods
for many years, and the people back
of these great dykes feel perfectly
safe. They are now planting their
crops, and carrying on their usual Az
ocations. .S. .2.,
Moreover, in the Atchafalaya dis
trict in Louisiana, 128 miles In extent,
and in the Pontchartrain District OF
the same state. 125 miles in extent,
the levees though not as strong as
thise in Major Dabney's district, are
also fine, and have held the floods up
to date. -, =.
1T is conceded by the engineering
world, and by all students Of the sub
1ect. that levees can be made sum.
GENTLY strong to afford complete pro
lection. It is only question Of enough
dirt, and the cost is q bagatelle when
compared with the enormous interests
at stake. The common impression
prevails that the bed Of the river IL
rising. This is a fallacy. Reports OF
the weather bureau show that the
low water plane, or zero of the river
is about where 1t was so years ago,
while the low water channel Is con-
siderably deeper now than then, dem
onstrating that 81 far from rising, the
bed Of the river is actually lowering
