HOG CHOLERA COSTS
Se5, 100000 YEARLY

Fayetteville, Ark, Feb. 10. - The
enormous toll of hog cholera, reaching
$65, 100000 in value in one year, Is so
alarming that the governments flelo
agents, working in harmony with the
State Agricu-tur College, are espe-
cially active in combating the disease
the country over. DR.. ]. f. Gibson
Veterinary field agents of the federal
bureau of animal industry, who is con-
Quoting the fight here against the Dog
disease, declares that the hog mas
been neglected despite the fact that
the hog has frightened more homes,
put more carpets on the floors, more
music into the parlor and turned the
faces of more boys and girls toward
the colleges than any other one FACTOR
in our entire economic fabric. Accord
ing to DR.. Gibson, 80 per cent of all
the losses in hog raising Is caused by
cholera. The country is now passing
through the third serious epidemic
in thirty years, and the control and
eradication Of the disease is one Of the
larger questions confronting the Amer
lean farmers today.

AUTOS EFFECT RAILROAD
REVENUE,

The injurious effect of automobiles
upon railroad revenues was frankly ad.
mitted by Chairman Knowlton of the
federal board of trustees Of the Boston
and Maine railroad. He linked them
with the trolly lines as competitors in
passenger transportation. How seri
ously railroad revenues in all New
England are impaired by the private
motor cars none has estimated; only
guesses could be made at the bcs

WON'T OPEN CORNERSTONE.

Meridian, Miss, Feb. 10.-The metal
box laid twenty-six years ago in the
corner stone of the old city hall, con
tanning articles of interest narrowly
missed being opened to the curious
gaze of probably a hundred persons
Saturday afternoon when the corner
stone was reached by the workmen
demolishing a part Of the old city
hall for remodeling. The arrival OF
B. v. Khite interrupted the program
and after a brief consultation with
Frank Kaye, purchaser Of the building,
, 1t was decided not to open the box.
| but to let it remain sealed to be plac.
ed back in it's receptacle and put IN
the shape Of small monument on the
grounds of the new city hall now un-
der construction.
The old city hall, sold by the pres
ent administration, was built in 1888
/, SO and the cornerstone was laid on
February Is, 1889, by the Masonic
Grand Lodge, presided over at that
time by Grand Master NJ. M. Evans.
When the city hall was sold no part of
it was reserved in the sale contract
and Mr. Kaye was full owner of the
cornerstone and contents.
1t has been announced that the cor
nerstone would be opened Saturday
afternoon and when the workmen
reached the stone great crowd had
gathered. Disappointment was ex-
pressed at not seeing the contents of
the box, several being present who
had attended the cornerstone laying
when they were small boys. The dis
appointment was relieved somewhat,
however, when e. Martin, a member
of the city government in 1SSS-S9
stated the contents Of the box, which
he said was contained in the records
Of the Masonic Grand Lodge. There

OF the state department in reference
to those who have completed their
Canadian citizenship by taking the
oath of allegiance, which they must do
in three years after making declara-

who have merely declared their inten-
ton. The former class lose their

Bismarck, Oct. 9.-Oficial informa-
ton has come from Washington re-
garding the opening of surface home
stead entry of the land comprised in
the Fort Berthold Indian reservation.
This is one Of the best sections Of
land yet remaining in the state un-

considerable interest. It is believed
there will be room for some $50 home

formerly a part of the Fort Berthold
indian reservation, North Dakota, and
Is located in the west central part of

There are approximately 10000
acres, lying in three separate bodies;
there being one division of about 5O,-
900 acres in the southeastern part of
the former reservation, another of
about 100000 acres in the northwestern
part, and a third of about 10000 acres
near the center. All of this land lies
north and east of the Missouri river.
1.-THE land without regard to value
Of the coal therein) has been apprais-
ed prices ranging mainly from SO to

which overrules the holding of the gen
eral land Office for years, will be of in.
terest The ruling was made in a
case brought to the attention of the
state department by Attorney Halvor
L. Halvorsok of this city.
The ruling of the state department
is that if an American citizen has gone
to Canada and has only declared his
intention of becoming a citizens of
that country and has not completed
the naturalization there by taking the
oath Of allegiance, he has not lost his
rights as citizen in the United States,
even though he has filed on Canad.
ian claim. The ruling of the general
land office, and consequently all the
local land Offices, has been that when
citizen of the United States made his
declaration in Canada that he intended
to become citizen of that country,
and especially when, In view Of that
declaration, he filed on a homestead,
if he came back to the United States
he would not have to take out his first
papers and proceed in the same man
ner as foreigner who was seeking
naturalization here. The state depart
ment overrides this view.
There are hundreds of people who
have abandoned their claims in Can
ada during the last year and who are
DESTROYS of recovering their citizen
ship here. Many Of them desire to file
on the lands to be opened in the Fort
Berthold reservation. II they have not
taken the oath Of allegiance in Canada
they need do nothing in the way Of re
covering their citizenship, and can file
on land without taking out their first
papers.
