viewed from a strictly financial stand

MANUFACTURES SHOW WELL

Kinds Can Be Added to Good
Advantage.

North Dakota. the most purely agri
cultural state in the Union. Is so thor
oughly agricultural that 1t will never
take a place among the great manufac
turing states Of the country Its des
TIMES do not lie in that direction.
But the state is not entirely without
its manufacturing industries. small.
though they may be In comparison
with the agricultural! resources. Owe,
$50, 900 worth of manufactured
products annually are produced in the
state. the chief industries being floui
and grist mills. brick and tile plants
butter and cheese factories. printing
establishments and the construction
and repair shops maintained by the
railroads at different points in the
state.
While the opportunities do not exist
for the state to become a great manu-,
featuring commonwealth. there is
ample reason why it's industrial &C,

It Is along these lines thst North

find its development rather than in an

reference to the jurisdiction over the
government-owned reservation at
Rosslyn at the south end of the
Aqueduct bridge The chief law off,
Ger of the army holds that the Dis
trict Commissioners have jurisdiction,
while the chief law officer ~of the
District holds to the contrary. and
contends that control is vested in the
War Department. This is not case,
however, of each side evading re-
sponsibility. 1t is just one of those
little questions of law that OCCASION
ally arise to perplex government Off
Gals, and must be referred either to
the courts or to the Department of
Justice for decision. The case in
point refers to proposed relocation
of street car tracks in connection
with some improvements that are
contemplated at the end of the
bridge. With each side deferring to
the other, no trouble is to be antici-
pated, which might be the case if
each side claimed jurisdiction for it
self and denied it to the other.

The Balkan Situation.

While the military operations in
Russia continue to hold attention
chiefly, the situation in the Balkans
is at this moment the most important
factor in the European war. With
Germany and the allies bidding
against each other at Sofia for Bull
garia's neutrality or Intervention,
with Serbia putting a money price
upon lands desired by Bulgaria as
compensation for Intervention, with
Greece passing under the premier
ship Of man avowedly in favor of
participation on the side of the allies.
with Rumania practically modified
to strike the moment an attempt is
made to force a passage for German
supplies into Turkey. and with Ger
many's leading military writer, Rev
entlow, demanding the hewing of a
way through the Balkans to Turkey.
the case is extremely complex. 1t is
generally felt that the participation
of Bulgaria and Rumania would be
almost surely deciding factor in
the war, as it would presumably
cause the fall of Constantinople
through Bulgarian attacks and would
