nominees must make the race and
stand on the pl.tforms adopted they
should be consulted and their wishes

Fortunately for Burleigh and some
other counties Of the state. the party
organisations were controlled by
men friendly to the ticket. In some,
counties, however, the opposite IL

lStenographers ibade goodby to their
companions when they received the
call to the front office and went fall
teringly, with last, lingering glances
at the bright sunshine without. Some
survived the ordeal. Others were
sent home in sambulances.
One day a slip Of a girl, with a
snub nose and head like a November
sunset was sent up from the short
hand school to fill one of the vacan-
.cies in the depleted ranks of the typ
lists.
She looked Just too sweet to have
to work for a living, but she was SO
homely that the cook hesitated and
lost two seconds Of valuable time
when she entered the office. The
beaten army gave her just one day
to survive. NSs
The first time she was sent into
the awful presence one of the girls
sent in a hurry call for the ambu-
lance. When she walked out alive
the other girls gasped and three OF
them tainted when she ASKED, Don't
you think the. boss is nice?"
Within three days she had the boss
walking around in circles and trying
to put his mind on his bushes. There
was a bouquet on her desk every
morning and she had six calls to the
boss office to- q for the others.
Once she was heard to tell the
boss that he was handsome. The
head pirate forgot to call down the
manager and the superintendent. The
atmosphere Of the office became al
most human. Cne competitor Of the
trust was allowed to escape with his
life. The slaves spoke aloud in the
office.
Every time the slip of a girl smiled
the boss had q twinge where his
heart used to be.
Thus 1t was shown that when love
flies in the window business escapes
by the back door.

We call attention to the dis
cussion of the water laws ap-
pearing in another column of this
issue. Matters of this character
are not understood or investigat-
ed by the ordinary individual un-
til they are brought directly to
his attention, when he realizes
that they are of vital Importance
to him personally. While the
proposed bill changing the law
would affect every section of the
state it is especially significant
to Harvey county as the immedi-
ate development of our great
and valuable water resources
now depends upon an equitable
and speedy determination of the
existing water rights. The pre-
sent Water Code is a good one
and its operations are working
out successfully, and it should
not be muddled by the adoption
of amendments without thorough
and careful consideration.

Protests Against Assess
ment Turned Down

Two applications for increase
of assessed values were turned
down BY the board of equalization
this week. One signed by ]. F.
Mahon, c. II. Voegtly and ]. w.
Biggs asking that cattle be raised
from $40 to $35 per head. and
sheep from $3.50 to So. The pc
tition was denied and we under
stand an appeal will be taken.
A protest was filed by c. B. Nc
Connell objecting to the assessed
value of lands of the Harvey VAL
ley Improvement Co., VIM. Han
ley Co., Bitten Valley Land Co.,
p. l.. S. Co., Oregon n Western
Colonization Co., Clerf Land 4
Live Stock Co. and the American
Land q Live Stock Co.
The petitioner appeared in per-
son filing lists and plats, and ar
guing that the assessment on
these properties was too low. was
inconsistent and unequal with
that of other lands.
Attention was called to the
plats which showed that lands in
the Silver Creek valley. on which
proof had recently been made.
were assessed at $50 per acre,
while on similar lands of some of
the above holders were assessed
at Sl.25 to $3.50 per acre; and
that section after section of the
Bitten Valley and Home Creek
lands were assessed at 81. 25 per
acre. This petition was also de-
MED and the board in making
the order of denial says in part:
that to attempt a change in the
assessment as prayed for would
be practically an impossible task
at this time. as il would require
a re-classification and survey of
almost the entire area of the
county, and a readjustment Of
the valuations upon q large
percentage of all the entries on
the tax roll; and believing that
no good interest of the county
could be subserved by such an
attempt. it is hereby ordered
that the assessment of lands as
returned by the assessor be al
lowed to stand" i" The order fur
ther makes the recommendation
that the lands be re-classified
next year and that sufficient help
be furnished the assessor for this
purpose.

Grain for Range Cattle.

Several cattle feeders of the
irrigated districts of the. Prime
vile country tried the experiment
of feeding gram to their fatten-
ing cattle last winter, according
to r. +. Reynolds, who has Just
returned from an extended OBJ
servation trip through that part
of Oregon, where farmers insti-
tutes were held by the agricultur-
al advisor and members Of the
o. A. c. staff. Very satisfac-
tory results wers secured" says
Mr.. Reynolds. 'and further ex-
periments will be carried on this
coming winter. Owing to a
scarcity of range, cattlemen are
considering the advisability of
feeding the one-year olds instead
of the two-year olds, as was done
in the past. Cattle raising is the
principal livestock industry, and
hogs would undoubted-
ly do well there farmers are re-
luctant to undertake hog-raising
because of the distance from
market.

Reception to DR..
and Mrs. Benson

The Presbyterian and Baptist
Ladies Aids joined in extending
a welcome to Rev. DR.. Benson
and wife at the Presbyterian
church last evening and it proved
a very enjoyable affair. The
choir rendered a couple of selec-
tions, Mr.. Ludwig Johnson sang
two solos as did also Mrs. Gault
and Mr.. Fare made a short ad-
dress. DR.. Benson expressed
the pleasuse of himself and Mrs.
Benson for the kindly reception
they had received and expressed
himself as being pleased to be
among the people Of Burns and
the hope of remaining for a long
time.
The first of this month the two
churches combined by selecting
DR.. Benson as the joint pastor
and so far the arrangement has
proven very satisfactory and
agreeable. It was a wise move
and one that meets the approval
of the two congregations. DR..
Benson said in the course of his
remarks last night that several
such consultations had been eff
fected in the state but none just
as this one. Here services are
held in each church every Sun
day. in the morning at the Pres
byterian and in the evening at
the Baptist church.
The reception to the pastor and
wife last night was genuine and
the large number in attendance
proved the appreciation Of the
people of the work of DR.. Benson
and the two congregations min
yled together with a spirit of
union that portends a
future Of good work along the
inc of church work in this city.
DR.. Benson has proven his
lbilty as q minister and has
.ained a warm spot in the hearts
# the people by his fearless de-
'ense of Christianity and the
.hurch. He is one of the most
orceful and logical speakers we
ave ever had in the pulpit of /
Burns and his work is going to
cunt in the future, The people
( the city are glad to extend
