State News

Lidgerwood, in the southern
part Of the state, which has had a
great deal Of trouble in the past
with blind pigers, is said now to
lie absolutely dry, caused by the
new law in this state and the
assistance Of the Webb law pass
ed by cong.ess. Prohibition is
getting to be stronger and more
effective every day.
With the better enforcement of
the prohibition law, aided by the
new law passed by the last legi-
slative assembly, and by the
Webb law, there will be many
less criminals, petty and gross
Offenders, and there will be less
use for jails and the penitentiary
of the state. This is encourag-
ing and entitled to a favorable
comment.
A large number Of North Da-
kota people have gone on for
eign tours this summer to the
different foreign countries, and
more are going. Many Of these
came into the state only a few
years since, with practically no
capital or belongings, and have
made all that they now have, in
the state, and have earned their
right to a vacation.
State news -.
This state has an unlimited
quantity Of coal, has cement min
es. and numerous other natural
resources Of great value which
are being developed on a much
larger scale than at the present
time. 1t is no longer to be con-
sidered a grain state, or a purely
agricultural state, in as much as
it has other great interests, al
though agriculture is very ex-
tensive and very great, and
manufacturing is being developed
very rapidly. o
Nose Jaw, Sask., -Chas. Linis-
cher Of Donnybrook, N. D., a

waiting for a certain homestead
to be opened for entry. He does
not know, but thinks he will file
some time during June. He has a
chair with an umbrella and is
relieved for an hour or two daily
by a friend. He takes all his
meals there, and passes his time
by reading novels and newspapers
The present week has been a
very busy one in Fargo, more
especially on account Of the
gathering Of Odd Fellows, Masons
Rebekahs and other orders. There
has been a large attendance and
a fine class Of people, and t he
occasion during the whole week
has been a very pleasant one for
Fargo and for the people of the
state and from outside, who have
been attending. Fargo has at
tempted to be hospitable and has
tried to make good, and it is be-
lieved to have made good.-Sear-
