THE PEOPLES A

New York Times: The quelhng Of the Roosevelt revolt in the
republican party is a good thing for the democrats, and Of course,
it is a good thing for the republicans. We are inclined to think
il is a good thing for MI. Roosevelt himself, although he can hard
ly be expected to take that view of the matter. Beyond all ques-
ton the democratic party will be sounder, wiscr, better organized,
and above all more careful, facing a united opposition than when
confronted by two factions Of republicans, each %belaboring the
other. The republicans fell into evil ways in the years when the
hopeless imbecility Of the democracy in respect to finance and cur
rency made victory sure for them in every election. The cemo.
Gratis would rush headlong into Dogs of error il through a series of
years they were assured by republican division of their position
of power. The country is observed by a party in that position.
The ebb and flow of the tides keeps the sea from becoming a most
unpleasant body of water, and the alterations of political fortune
make parties wary of adopting extreme and dangerous policies.
This is the peoples way of making them pruden and respectable.
Since he left the White House MI. Roosevelt has made a bad
mess of it in politics. He set out to destroy the Republican party,
and the republican party has renewed it's strength. He assaled
with his customary ferocity both Mr.. Whitman and Mr.. Su!zer.
MI. Whitman is elected by a very big majority and Mr.. Sulzer,
whom the colonel denounced as a "crook" has poNed more than
double the number Of votes recorded for Davenport, the colonels
candidate. All over the country, save in California, the progressive
party has been practically reabsolbed into the republican organi,
cation. There are many fields of activity in which MI. Roosevelt
could be both interesting and useful. If he will put aside his poll
teal ideas, which the country has most emphatically rejected, his
political ambitions, which have been and will be fruitless, and his
grudges, which are unworthy of him, he can rise to a very hr
place in the esteem of his countrynen. He would make a very
picturesque sage.

Is Devils Lake to have its Mid-Winter Fair again this year? We
can hardly afford to pass it up, and if we are to make it the
all arrangements, as this will give all exhibitors plenty of time to
get their exhibits in shape. Up to the present time theMid-Winter
fair has been one Of the attractions of the Lake Region, and from
year to year it has steadily grown. It has been of much benefit
to all and it will be Of greater benefit in the future. Let each and
every citizen put his shoulder to the wheel and boost to make the
coming fair the biggest and best of all.

No sooner was the election over than the Democratic daily began
to "holler' about stufing the ballot boxes in order to keep some
one out of office. Evidently the Journal has little faith in the
,,onesty and integrity Of Judge Griffin, as they must know that the
are held in his possession, and the only way the ballot could be
stuffed would be through connivance of the judge. This is an in
suit to Judge Griffin, whose honesty and integrity has never been

A Good Amateur Play for the
People of Dickinson. 1t will
be Very Funny.

"Mr. Bob" a comedy in two acts,
is one Of the most popular Of anna
ture plays and was selected by the
Congregational Ladies' Aid COM
mittee from large number of
"good" plays. The dialogue is bright
and clean, situations funny and the
plot sufficient to hold the interest
tense. The prominent parts are:
A rich old maid aunt, who con-
templates turning part of her
house into cat hospital; her niece,
Katherine, and nephew, Philip; the
English butler who is in love with
the stage struck maid, Patty; Mr..
Brown, who gets taken for everybody
except himself; and Mr.. Bob, who
is really Katherine's school friend,
Marion. These characters are taken
by Mesdames Scherffius and Lilli-
bridge ;, Miss Hillesheim, Messrs.
Ryder, Ellian and C.. c. Owen, which
is sufficient guaranty Of a delightful
evening. The play will be put on
April 24th and music will be furn-
ished by the Dickinson orchestra.

Hoff will probably take possession
the first Of the coming week. He
farmed in Texas tor 20 years, but

BILLINGS co. FENCE LAW.
Judge Nuchols Holds that Far
mers Must Fence in Billings /!
if They Are to Protect
Their Crops Against
rF.ss Stock. - IN

The fence law question which has
50 long been under question ! in Bill
lings county, has finally been settled
in district court by Judge Nuchols Of
Mandan, who holds that the law is
good. - -. Ia !.
This means that stockmen are not
liable for damage to crops which are
not fenced. 49,. i -: 3%s:s
The case in court is known as
Peterson VS.. Sam Pullins. It is the
result of a damage suit for some
$500 brought a number of years ago
while s. N. Pullins still had stock
interests in the southeastern portion
of Billings county. Judge w. @.
Crawford was disqualified in the case,
hence it was tried before Judge
Nuchols with the result as stated.
W. F. Burnett of Dickinson appeared
as attorney for Mr.. Pullins, now a
resident of Montana. " va i, :,
Some 20 years ago, under a spec
ial act of legislature, the people Of
Billings county voted for fence
law. No other county in North Da-
kota ever voted fence law, and in
later years a great many people in
Billings had come to think that there
was no such law or at least that it
was not a law that would stand in
any court. .gs..42.a.
The late Judge Winchester at one
time had expected to try the. point
as to the validity of the law and at
that time it was learned that he con-
sidered that Billings county had the
fence law. - "
The fence law decision is of great
interest to people living in old Bill
lings county. It means that home
steaders have no case for damage
for loss to crops by stock unless the
fields are fenced in accordance with
law. -" 1922 ."' - - -

GOOD STOCK
ALWAYS PAYS
MINNESOTA HOLSTEINS
BRING BIG PRICES. BUY
ERS FROM WYOMING
WANTED 1000 HEAD

A most interesting report appeared
in a recent issue of the Todd County
Argus. The report was in regards
to the creameries of this Minnesota
county. The patrons of these
creameries received $1,125,OOO the
past year. One creamery alone
paid out $128,377.61. It is only
within the last ten years that the
dairy industry has been in operation
in this county. The farmers started
with scrubby herds, but have built
them up to full bloods or near full
bloods. While these herds have
been advancing so has the creamery
business. The industry has raised
the price Of land from $25 per acre
to $50 and 800 per acre. 1t has
made it possible for the farmers to
erect large barns and modern houses,
and there probably is not another
county in the great state where the
farming communities look more pros
porous.
The price of cattle all over the
country has gone up in leaps and
bounds. North Dakota is not the only
place where cattle bring good fig
ures. In Todd county recently
man from Wyoming bought six
young Holstein heifers for $500. He
said that he was disappointed in the
fact that he could not buy more. He
was after 1000 head. Another farm
er sold 10 Holstein cows for $4,000,
or an average price of $4,000 per
head. This shows that the market
for dairy stock is. unlimited when
men go from the beef cattle state of
Wyoming to the dairy state of Min
nesota and pay prices like the above.
There must be, j. something in it. II
seems foolish to devote SO much of
our time and energy to grain, when
farmers in our sister state can get
such prices for we'll bred stock. It al
SO behooves US to build up what few
herds we have so that we can be in
the market to sell when fancy prices
are offered. -"
+, Nearly one hundred and fifty head
of milk cows have been placed
among the farmers around Manning
this spring for dairy purposes. They
are the neuculous for some mighty
fine herds. This was not blooded
stock, but good stuff and with the
right breeding will make first class
dairy stock.
H. c. Reichert of the St. Charles
hotel, formerly resided in Todd coun-
ty, Minnesota and is we'll acquainted
with many of the farmers who have
been making SO well with the dairy,
the last few years. He is sure that
what has been done at his old home
could be repeated in Stark county. u.

Montana SENS to be doing it's part
in placing the northwest in the front
rank Of states that are supplying the
eastern markets with extra fine cat
tie and sheep. The following will
prove of interest to stock growers
and farmers, particularly in Mime
sofa, North Dakota and Montana, and
may act as an incentive to others.
Augustus Vaux Of Sidney, Montana
in the Lower Yellowstone valley,
owns a farm adjoining the town Of
Sidney. This part Of the valley is
within the limits Of the Lower yell
lowstone Reclamation Project of the
United States Government. 1t is
reached by branch line Of the Nor
thern Pacific Railway from Glendive.
Mr.. Vaux recently sent to the Chi
cago market two shipments Of cattle
land sheep. On Wednesday,, March IL
he sold carload Of beef cattle which
brought the highest price ever. OBJ
tained for cattle fattened in Montana,
unless possibly an exception be made
in favor Of the high priced period Of
1910 when prices were exceptionally
high. There were 16 head which sold
as full carload at $9.35 per hun
dred-weight, averaging 149S pounds
per animal in weight. These cattle
were bought for immediate shipment
to the Boston. market. ..:.s il. 81. is.. ,5, ,t.ss
What is part ticularly suggestive III
connection with these cattle is the
fact that. they were never fed one
pound Of corn but were fattened en-
tirely on corn ensilage, alfalfa and
ground barley with sprinkling Of
flax screenings and middlings. These
cattle were fed from October II, 1918
to March 6, 1914. -
On Monday, March 16, a shipment
Of four decks Of lambs sent to Chicax
go by Mr.. Vaux topped the market at
$7.85 per hundred weight. Like the
cattle these sheep were finished off
on ground barley, flaxseed screenings
and alfalfa hay, thus furnishing ad-
ditional evidence Of what Montana
and the Northwest can do, when they
set about it, with homie grown feeds.
On the following day a bunch of near
sly 400 ewes from the same lot Of
sheep sold at $5.s5, the extreme price
for that day for western ewes. The
remainder Of the lambs sold on the
sasne day at $7.70, going within SC
iof the top price for that day. M
II All these cattle and sheep were fed
on Mr.. Vaux's farm by men in his EN-
yploysSand the results obtained are
simply evidence Of what others may
do along the same line BY careful,
systematic feeding. szjs

BETTER ROADS WANTED
Club After the Road Question
Again. County Agent Ques-
ton Being Considered.

Considerable important business
was under consideration at the Com
mercial Club on Wednesday evening.
A letter from A. L. Meigs stated
that he was ready to leave New
York City on the Red Line auto
tour inspection as soon as the snow
would permit. 1t seems that the snow
fall in New York was very heavy the
last weeks of March. Mr.. Meigs has
his specially constructed car for the
trip to Seattle via Dickinson and will
be along here probably early in May.
He wanted Dickinson banner for
this transcontinental trip and Secre-
tary Orchard was instructed to send
him one by early mail.
James C. Young of Minneapolis,
who left a fund of $500 with the
club few years ago for special pur-
poses, expended under certain con-
tions, wrote inquiringly about such
expenditures as had been made. Over
half the fund is still in, tact. The
sums expended have been mostly in
aid Of publicity, such as better farm
ing congress sessions, county fairs,
etc. Mr.. Young suggested that pos
sibly one good use for some Of the
money would be in an effort to get
mere farmers fer our vacant acres
II. s. Underhill was elected a
member of the club, the rules being
suspended and his election made by
acclamation.
Mr.. Underhill, as chairman of the
committee, then made a report re-
garding county agent. He found
that some people were not in favor
of an agent but on the whole, as far
as learned, the people were favorable
to the plan. Mr.. Underhill will con-
tinue his investigation and report at
the next meeting of the club. He will
take the matter up with the county
commissioners next week. The law
provides for half mill levy. Supt.
L. R. Waldron has been asked to
prepare a statement showing the con-
nection of a county agents work to
the experiment station and also the
organization that will eventually be
needed in order to get state and fed
eral aid.
Road work was considered at
length. The county grader is avail
able now and President White will
confer at once with people in Green
river and RAIDER township about need
ed work. If all forces can work to-
gether a great deal of good can be
accomplished.
Several ladies, representing the
Women's Clubs of the city and the
civic federation of Women's Clubs,
were present and, through Mrs. H.
L. Reichert, asked for the free use
Of the Commercial Club rooms for the
federation and several clubs for their
meetings and their work. In making
this request the ladies said they rep
presented large number of the
women of the city and that they like
Commercial Club, were working to
make a better city and had to have
a suitable place for. their meetings.
The reasonableness of the request
evidently appealed to the club and
on motion of Mr.. Richards the request
was unanimously granted without
discussion. y Il 5'@| =
