THE GULFPORr WESTERN RAIL.
ROAD.

A meeting of the committees OF
the third, sixth and tenth wards,
looking into the matter of voting {
tax Of two mills on the dollar for
the Gulfport and Western Railroad
held meeting at the courthouse
Monday. Mr.. Robt. L. ALBERT was
made secretary of the committee:
and Mr.. J. E. Nilsson was made a
member Of the committee from tn,
third ward. Judge T. NJ Burns pre-.
sented petition in due legal form
to be used by the members of the
committees in obtaining the sigma
lures of those in favor of voting tho
tax. We understand it requires one
third in value and amount of the
property tax payers of these severa!
wards to call an election, and If this
one-third is obtained the police jury
will order the election held.
1t is probable that the petition will
be ready to present to the police jury
at their next meeting. June Is.

forty barrels raised from two barrek

the health Office of Bismarck, North

the health office Of Bismarck, North
Dakota, is using.
His comparison Of infantile mortality
rates are equally misleading. He has
not taken into consideration the age
distribution of population. The direc-
tor Of the Census says: 'No exact com
parison for the various states can be
made until the age distribution Of the
population is available" North Dako-
ia is young sttae. It has nearly
doubled its population in the past ten
years. The average immigrant Is
young, strong, and healthy. and in the
family bearing period Of life. This
gives us a relatively greater proportion
| Of infants, and hence higher relative
death rate among these. But it we
compare infantile mortality with the
! birth rates or with the general popula-
ton of the state, we find that they arc
exceptionally low, 90 per 1000 births
in the one case and Ia per 1000 popu-
lation in the other.
The closing paragraph of DR.. Smyth IS
letter hardly merits mention, but for
fear that he might feel sighted, 1 shall
quote from his own report on the In.
ternational Congress on Hygiene and
, DeHlography Aelu IN washington, H.
G., last September, at which he was
! the official delegate from Bismarck,
| N. D.; "The only sanitary measure in
which North Dakota appeared to lag
behind the eastern states is in the col
lection Of vital statistics.' This last
being admitted, we feel hattered at the
frank admission.
In conclusion, we cannot help feeling
that our good brother smyth is in very
much the same state of mind as that
individual who was overheard saying:
: eyes, I'm going home for lunch and
I if it amt ready, I'll raise Cain. and
/ If it is ready won It eat darned
bite, anyway"

TOWN BUILT ON
STATE BOUNDARY

Fairview, N. D., Sept. 22-Fairview
is to have a newspaper. W. H. Mum
by Of Buford is the editor. He has
moved tho plant here with which he
formerly issued the Tribune at that
place.
There are two Fairviews here in
different states with only the state
line as street separating them. The
Montana Fairview is the older town.
It has saloons while the North Da-
kota Fairview is dry, but there is moth
ing to restrain the inhabitants from
this side crossing the street and the
reason is frequently more apparent
than "why does hen cross the roadf''
The situation here between two
towns in adjoining states is more
closely related than anywhere else on
the North Dakota boundary lines.
Beach and Yates are some distance
apart. Portal and North Portal, Can,
are quite close. Neche and Gretna,
Pembina, Emerson, Can. and st. Vim
cent, Mimi, are quite close as are
Grand Forks and East Grand Forks.
Fargo and Moorhead and Wahpeton
and Breckenridge but none are so
closely affiliated as the two Fair
views.
This section is attracting a great
deal Of attention because Of the Great
Northern railway construction be-
tween New Rockford and Lewiston
Mont. Many new settlers and new en-
terprises will be located here.

CORN
RAISED HERE

We noticed this week an exhibition
at the First National Bank in this city
three samples of corn. One sample was
raised by r. T. Moen of this city, an
other sample was raised by A. G. TUT
ford, who owns and operates farm
north Of the city, and the third was a
sample Of corn raised near Detroit,
MINI. They were all fine samples Of
well matured corn, but on examination
one could readily see that the North
Dakota grown corn was superior to the
sample furnished by Minnesota. This
has been a splendid corn year in this
section and the fine samples of well ma
tured corn which has been raised in
this county speaks more than words
can tell of the future corn raising pros
poets in North Dakota. All corn plant
ed and properly cultivated here has
fully matured and is equal in quality
to corn raised in any part of the Unit
ed States.
Any person who is skeptical about
raising corn in Ramsey county should
60 to the First National bank and see
the splendid samples ,on exhibition
there.
