ENLISTED HERE
now in CHINA
MAN WHO JOINED THE UNITED
STATES MARINE CORPS IN THIS
CITY WRITES AN INTERESTING
LETTER FROM CHINA WHERE
HE Is GUARD.

The U. S. marine corps recruiting
Office in the Magill block OF this city,
received a letter from one of the re-
cruits that enlisted four months ago
at the Fargo Office.
He is now in China on the Legation
guard and said that seven of the guard
are men that enlisted in the Fargo Of
fee.
you said that / would see the world,
well I have only been in the marine
corps four months and / have certainly
seen quite a lot, ana I can truthfuIly
say that everything you told me about
the service is true, and I don't think
that you did yourself justice and could
add a whole lot Of good things that
you didn't tell me about" writes this
man.
Things are on the hummer out here.
many of the foreigners came to the
legation for protection.
We have been expecting to be called
out any time. as the chinks are burn
ing and footing through out the city,
Although the Fargo officers expect to
close their office soon, unless they get
more men, they say that their hats
are also in the ring, but how long
they will remain Is hard to say.

Der aggregated 49, $50, 900 dozen, val
ued at 50, $50, 00O-to say nothing OF
the 10000 dozen shipped to Hawaii
and Porto Rico.
The reason there has been a sur
plus of eggs for expectation is found
in the fact that the domestic fowl has
increased to the point to justify it.
According to the census Of 1900 there
were 35O,623,114 fowls in this country
the production Of eggs being 1885,
$751; SS dozen. This gives 3.29 fowls per
capita-and seventeen dozen eggs
per capita per annum
Poultry raising has not long been
generally regarded as a profitable in
dustry-but now it is looked on by
many as one worthy of the closest at
tention.

PAVING INSPECTION.

The taxpayers Of Fargo are incur
ring a huge expense on repaving this
year. No matter who gets the con-
tract-how many friends the success
full mar has-The Forum believes the
city should employ some live wire for
inspector. It Is worse than useless to
engage inspectors who know abso-
lutely nothing of the technical features
Of paving. The city should be repre-
scented by some expert paving man
who knows the work from all angles
and has intelligence and character
sufficient to look after the city's inter-
ests.
No contractor can object to this.
All the taxpayers want is that the
contractor live up to his agreement.
To know whether this is being done
"a competent inspector must be on
Job.

Those Annoyances,

A Harvard professor--and there
fore m professor. indeed-says
there are really no annoyances in life
except those which spring from the
imagination. It is not exactly prop
er to apply that short and ugly north
poles word to a Harvard professor. so
We will merely say we believe he has
erred. A professor doesn't get out
around much and perhaps this one
heard OF the following little nnoy-
ances with which the imagination has
nothing whatever to do:
Getting a package of flagreed shirt
waist and female lingerie home
from the laundry by mistake when
you are in a hurry to catch a train
and haven't a clean shirt to your
back.
Having some extremely healthy and
well fed person give you advice on
what to eat when you can't keep any
thing on you stomach but your union
suit.
Getting up in the middle OF the
night to answer the telephone only to
find that the man on the other end Of
the line is trying to get the brewery.
Having some n ask you where
the Second Presbyterian church is
when you don't even know where the
first one is.
Getting on the street car with a
lonesome nickle and having two girl
friends get on at the next corner.

Wants U. S. TO
DEVELOP The POWER
Continued From Page One.

ton of water power control about
which the commissioner sounds a
warning may become, he says, the nu-
cleus for a monopoly Of both water
and steam power. If the water power
cannot meet the entire demand of a
given locality he points out that the
owners can acquire auxiliary fuel
plants and handle water and fuel
power owe the same distributing
lines and thus a complete commercial
power monopoly might gradually be
built up-in fact already exists in a
number Of communities.
Ten great groups of interests, with
the General Electric Co. as the most
powerful are declared by Commits
sioner Smith to control or strongly in-
fuence about so per cent Of the de-
veloped commercial water power of
the United States. These ten groups
themselves are more OF less inter-re-
lated, with resultant growing commun-
ity of interests. In this connection the
commissioners report says
In this maze of inter-relationships,
ranging from practically joint control
down to personal association in com
mon directorates. is clearly revealed
the drift Of water power and public
utility corporations under the control
Of a few very powerful interests.
These connections, some stronger and
some weaker, suggest a favorable con-
dition for a very small number of men
to consolidate very large interests
whenever they may decide it is to
their advantage to do so. This inter-
locking Of interests through directors,
while not necessarily indicating a pur-
pose Of monopoly, certainly affords an
incentive and a means to combina-
ton"
Mr.. Smith, urging the immediate
formulation of a definite policy of de-
veloping the remaining water power
sites on the public domain, recon-
mends generally speaking that the
government retain the ultimate con-
troll of these sites. They should be de-
veloped at once, he declares, not only
to conserve the fuel supply of the
country, but because they are fast
passing into private control. 1t is es-
timated that the water power now in
use saves SO, 600, 900 tons Of coal an
nually and, Mr.. Smith adds, the wa
ter power is moi expended in
its using.

WIDE r E WAGONS.

Now that Fargo is to repave about
half of the city-an ordinance re-
garding traf1c should be enacted. The
council should have some measure
that can be enforced. There is al
ready n regarding tnreshing ma
chimes and some other vehieles-but
the condition or the old pavement
shows what damage has been done in
the past-and forecasts what will han
e in the future-unless proper reg
ulations are made and enforced.
3 Heavily laden and narrow tired
wagons through the residential dis
tricts ruin the new paving. Every We
hicle that delivers coal and wood, fur-
Iiture and other heavy loads should be
equipped with wide tires. The life OF
the new paving can be extended oyer
many years-under the proper pro.
lection.

POULTRY RAISING.

In years gone by a great many farm
ers reluctantly tolerated the presence
of poultry on their farms. In some in
stances the good housewife had to beg
for the privilege Of going extensively
into the breeding Of poultry. But it
has been demonstrated that no part Of
the farm pays better in proportion to
the cost and labor than that-which is
generally denominated as the woman,s
part.
Formerly there were large importa-
tons Of eggs to this country. As
many as 100000 dozen coming with :

VOTE NEXT

The North Dakota voter gets a
Shance to exercise his franchise
Tuesday. He will have an opportunity
( o express his preference for president,
vote for national committeeman of his
favorite party, for presidential dele
gates and for presidential electors.
In the cities municipal officers will
also be elected, and in villages and
townships the voters also determine
who will conduct local affairs for the
next twelve months.
The republican voter can make a
mark after the name of either Taft,
Roosevelt or LaFollette, he can vote
for one of two men for national COM
mittee, Ave Of ten men for presidential
electors and ten of twenty men for
delegates to the national republican
oOnvention-haIf of them being for
Roosevelt n the other for LaFoIlette.
Both the Roosevelt and the La
Toilette committees are very enthusi-
astic and each side expresses the ut
most confidence in h outcome.
Had the primaries been the first Of
this week instead OF next Tuesday
there would have been no doubt as to
the state. going for Roosevelt-with
JaForlette second and Taft third.
With LaFollette in the state for six
speeches at the end of the campaign
the Wisconsin man may be able to
stem the Roosevelt tide and might
possibly win-or make it a close race.
1t IL quite probapIe-if the result is
at all close-that it will take many
days to determine who have been
chosen delegates.
The democrats, having only one can
1didate for the presidency, Burke. may
be inclined to mix a little and add to
the confusion of the republicans by
trying to force LaFollette onto North
Dakota. The fight for the national
committeemanship is so exciting that
many will stick to their own party
ballot.
In Fargo the municipal campaign
has gone along very smoothly and at
present the odds appear very largely
in favor Of ]. J.. Jordan. Charlie
