Signing Of Act Delayed
ALIEN LAND DlkL
AWAITS PROTEST FROM
GOVERNMENT.

Washington, D. c., May 5-News
that the Japanese government had in
structed Ambassador Chinda to make
formal protest against the California
aline land bill was received in official
circles tonight with interest. The pro-
test probably will be presented to the
acting secretary, John Bassett Moro
at the state department.
Pending the return of Secretary
Bryan from Sacramento, no statement
from the administration is expected
here.
Sacramento, Calf, May 5.-Califor
MAS anti alien land holding act, which
passed both houses of the legislature
within "a hours after bringing about
of the most unusual situation in the
history of the nation, will lie on Gov
ernor Johns6n's desk without his sig
nature until Secretary Bryan can con-
fer with President Wilson in Wash
| ington.
This will mean a delay of nearly a
week as Secretary Bryan left here last
evening and will not reach the national
capitol until Wednesday night or
Thursday morning.
Governor Johnson will wait, as he
says, "a reasonable time" for what
ever protest the government may make
after which he will sign the bill.
He is required by law to sign or
veto all acts passed up to him within
ten days of their final passage, provid-
ed the enactment body remains in SEES
sion for that length of time, otherwise
he has thirty days.
1t appeared tonight the legislature
would not adjourn until May 18th or

ReDorted Extension
MAY Be DELAYED Year

Ryder, N. D., May 6.-Whether the
500 will or will not extend it's line
across the Bethold reservation this
summer Is the all absorbing question
in this locality. Hundreds Of car loads
OF material are on the ground, the sur
veys are completed, number of new
towns have been started and In some
instances stores have been erected in
them, but the line may not be built
this year after all. Contractors who
had arranged to secure meat and feed
supplies here have cancelled their
orders and it is announced the 500
will wait until next year because OF
the difficulty in financing the con-
struction Of the extension this season
as they had regarded it as positive
certainty.

sprung up a new industry that
promises to rival old King Cotton,
among our people. This is the pro-
duction of sorghum syrup. We
have been growing it for hay and
pasture many years, but only for
the past two years has it been

yield of 200 gallons per acre is not
too much to expect under favorable
conditions, which, together with the
value of the seed and baggasse for
stock feed, should make it very
profitable crop.

and Tender for Hours.

i
At about 7:30 o clock last Sunday
evening Brookhaven was startled by
news that a wreck had occurred
about a mile north, at the junction
formed by the Mississippi Central
and the l. G. It was soon learned
that No. 3. the New Orleans Linn
tied, had crashed into an extra
freight, No. 81. at a standstill on
the north-bound track. An open
switch was said to be responsible
for the accident.
The switch on which the wreck
occurred is long one, leading from
the north to the southbound track.
The members of the freight trains
crew had closed the switch on the
northbound track, thus protecting
themselves, but had neglected to,
close the switch on the south track.
The switchman had just climbed
into the engine cab. and the freight
train was preparing to pull out
when the fast passenger train
swung into sight. The fast NOV
ing train was thrown from its own
rails into those on which stood the
freight by the open switch. The
freight train men did not realize
their fatal error until after the
crash.
The engine of the New Orleans
Limited was little damaged and it
proceeded under its own steam into
Brookhaven. The freight engine
was demolished.
! Brookhaven turned out en- masse
as the news spread. The scene
presented was appalling, one of the
dead men being found standing in
position and the others feet hang
ing out of the cab. These were

WHAT TRECOUNTYOFFERS
A Short Digest of LincOIn's Great
Resources and Versatility in An
Agricultural Way.

Dear Mr.. Editor:-At your re-
quest here submit a few facts
regarding Lincoln county. and
the vicinity Immediately
surrounding its capital city, Brook
haven.
First, the climate here is s-perb:
it is claimed by some who have
" lsited both sections that the
climate here is superior to that Of
Southern California.
Second, the water here is most
excellent. 1t is as soft and pure as
melted snow.
Third, the soil is Of the finest
texture, and while it is not so fer
tile as the prairie and alluvial Sec
tions of the State, on account of its
remarkable texture. with a little
fertilizer and proper cultivation.
it will yield more than lands in any
other part of the State or the
world for that matter.
This county holds the record Of
the world for the greatest produc-
tlon Of corn on one acre of land =
$50 bushels.
1t has a record Of three bales of
cotton ON one acre Of land, produc-
ed without any special effort.
It is not surpassed in adaptabili-
ty for peaches. plums, grapes, APP
pies and ounces.
The finest pecans are raised here
and the trees grow off faster and
bear earlier than elsewhere. Wal
nuts and chestnuts also find a con-
genial hume here.
We raise the finest tomatoes here
in the world and also pretty well
