BROUGHT MANY sCALPs.

Like Indians of the older days, who
came to the camp fire with many
scalps, so the snimrods of Burleigh
county came to the auditors office at
the court house Monday, with wolf
scalps. Forty-eight scalps were turn
ed in during the day by three men
and the bounty paid amounted to
$3.50. C. Il. Rice of Sterling brought
the largest number, %, and received
his bounty Of $50 for them. The Sec
ond list contained IS scalps, brought.
in by Henry Nieman of Driscoll. His
reward for his labors amounted to
$45; and the last to come was George
Bridget of Wing, who collected 500

SWAT THE DANpELlON,

There is as much personality in cit
les as in persons, and the sanitary
conditions of cities is as striking in
various instances as is the personal
appearance of men and women.
Bismarck is gaining splendid rep.
utation for it's cleanliness, and it is
necessary that additional efforts be
exerted continually in order that not
only the present reputation be main.
tanned, but that it be extended.
Our street commissioner and our
police have done very we'll in keeping
the streets and alleys cleared OF de-
bris, while our citizens have estab-
lished an enviable reputation for
beautiful lawns, neat premises and
we'll painted buildings.
There is one item along this line
which should be given the attention
of every. property owner, and that is
the dandelion. This weed is to a
lawn what mustard is to wheat field,
and lis very prolific in its growth
and increase. Some cities have been
so badly overrun with the dendelion
that 1t has been necessary to legis-
late against it. 1t is getting start
in this city, and while many are TAX
ing precautions against its further
spreading by destroying the plants
found on their premises, yet there is
need of greater diligence, or rather,
more united effort. 1t is difficult for
one to keep his yard free from this
pest when his neighbor does not.
Hence, before the trouble becomes
plague, would it not be we'll for
all to exercise diligence, thereby max.
ing war on the weed?

Persons who are accustomed to OBJ

On one occasion little pack train
Of three mules brought to Dawson
City $4,000 worth of gold in com.
mon sacks. over which the mule driv.
er, acting on his own responsibility,
fastened a bit of sailcloth, lest a mule
falling on rock or against branch
should accidentally rip open sack
and spill the contents. The whole LOT
was thrown with other goods into the
packers Office and left there until the
following morning.
At another time $4,000 worth was
sent down on one horse. The packer

OUR POSITION.

OUR POSITION.
We have not been honored with a
copy of Congressman George M.
Young's franked speech criticizing
the Bismarck Tribune for taking issue
with his vote to sustain the shipping
trust.
However, we are dealing with his
franked remarks in another column,
but there is personal matter con-
, corning certain reflections on the
Tribune and its editorial management
which cannot be passed unnoticed,
even coming from such source.
We do not know whether he actu-
ally delivered this speech or whether,
timorously rising from his seat, he
asked the usual favor of leave to
print"
But we do know that it will be
ranked to every voter at the tax
payers expense, an excellent ssubter.
fuge to evade the corrupt practices
act. 1t is for that reason, and that
reason only, that we notice the refer.
ence to ourselves.
We trust the readers of the Trib-
une will pardon US for being little
personal in this matter, as our only
object is to correct some 1nisrepre-
sensations in Mr.. Young's franked
"leave to print" speech.
He says in his franked speech:
There was time when the
Bismarck Tribune had much in.
fluence, under the talented edi.
t0rial management of Marshall
Jewell. But under its present ed.
itorial management it has become
the special advocate and sponsor
Of the railroad interests. 1t even
advocates the raising of railroad
rates.
The Tribune is not the advocate Of
special interests or sponsor for the
railroads. 1t intends to treat them as
fairly as any other legitimate bust
ness enterprise. We probably cannot
60 so far as Mr.. Young did in sup
porting the shipping trust in his ca.
nal tolls vote, but we will do our
best to be fair even to the railroads.
Not a share Of stock of the Trib-
une company is owned by railroad
or special interest. The railroads
have no strings on its editor, its ed
itorial management or its editorial
policy. ...,... -.
1t has never under its present edi.
torial management advocated an in.
crease in freight rates in North Da.
K kota or any other western state But
1t did say recently in an editorial
comment upon general business con.
uitions. that the petition of the rail-
roads east Of the Ohio to increase
their rates five per cent should be
granted. We are upheld in our posi-.
ton that some relief should be given
the eastern carriers by as eminent a
Progressive Republican as Louis D.
Brandeis, one LaFollette's right bow.
ers.
u VI course, Mr.. Young wanted to in
Ter that we advocated an increase in
freight rates in this state, but his
ranked speech will hardly accom-.
plish this, for when unfairness and

GAMBLING INSTITUTIONS.
We are in receipt from the New
York Stock 'Exchange of a pamphlet
copy relative to the hearings before
the committee on banking and cur
rency of the United States in regard
to the bill introduced by Senator
Owen affecting the stock exchanges.
AS we are firm in our convictions that
the speculation quotations as manip.
ulated by these gambling institutions
are detrimental to our commercial
welfare as whole, we fail to see
where we owe any gratuitous space
in our columns in defense of the gi-
gantic and legalized robbery practiced
by this exchange and others of it's

SOUNDS GOOD.
Extract from statement to the yot-
ers by Col. w. p. futile, candidate for
congress:
Our farmers for the past fifty
years have been paying enhanced pric-
es for nearly everything they have had
to buy, ii order to support American
labor. Hence, in return therefor, the
farmer, of all people, should not be
legislated against, but, on the con.
trary if any class should have special
legislation in its favor, 1t is this one
third of the class that practically pro-
duces the wealth of the world, on
which the other two-thirds lives-and
the no1-producing class need not OBJ
ject, in return, to pay the producer
an adequate price, and thus furnish
him the wherewithal for an adequate
living
How does that sound to the farm
ers of this county who have been
forced to reduce the price of their
product to compete with Canada, Ar
gentine, China, Japan and other Euro
pean countries since the democrats
have taken off the duties and tinkered
with the tariff?-N. Oak. Eagle, Willow

WATER USERS HAVE MEETING
And Fix Upon Tentative Plans
For Organizing Into a Pliable
Working Body.

A water users meeting was held
in the court house on Saturday
afternoon at which those present de-
cided to make an effort to effect the
organization of permanent official
water users association on Saturday
afternoon July 25th, Only about
20 were in attendance, but what the
meeting lacked in numbers it made
up in enthusiasm. All present ex-
pressed themselves as being heartily
in favor of Immediately organizing
the official association, which must
inevitably come sooner or later, and
they pleged themselves to do all in
their power to attain that result.
After considerable discussion a
plan of action was decided upon. A
resolution was passed providing for
the appointment of a committee to
consult with Project Manager Cole
and request him to send to all water
users a copy of the pamphlet issued
by the Reclamation Service explain
ing the manner of organizing
water users association, together
with a letter from the Project Mana
ger pointing out the advantages of
such an organization, and asking all
water users to join.
In addition to this provision was
made for the appointment of man
to canvas each district of the pro-
ject for the purpose of signing up
the water users in the new associa-
ton. These men will start work at
once and continue their efforts until
the meeting on the 25th. when it is
planned to get together as many
of the water users as possible and
actually organize.

available; drainage works, the neces-
sary extent of which can be devel-
ope6 only after settlement and culti-
vation of the lands.
During the coming year the prin-
cipal item of construction will be the
completion of the Lahontan dam,
which will give the project storage
capacity of 100000 acre feet, or
enough water for the irrigation of
from $4,000 to $4,000 acres of land
taking into account the evaporation
and seepage losses in carrying the
water to the farms. According to|
plans the dam will be completed and
in full operation by Jan. l, 1915.
