Work Begun 80 Years Ago
Has Maps of Votes in
Presidential Elections.

The completion Of new atlas map
ping every presidential election from
George Washington to Hoover has just
been announced by the Carnegie Insti-
tuition here and the American Geo.
graphical Society Of New York.
Under the title, Atlas of the His
torical Geography Of the United
States the publication gives in $40
maps and 145 pages of text the results
of 20 years original research.
The atlas shows not merely physical
geography but how the sectionalism OF
American politics Is deeply rooted in
For example, the Smoot- -Hawley tariff
act of June 13, 1890, is mapped in COL
ors showing how representatives Of va
the conference reports.
Other Votes Shown.
Other maps show votes by congress
sional districts on SO of the most i'm
portant measures that came before the
National House. Persistence of lines
of sectional political cleavage is mapped
in colors. Other maps show explorers
routes, Indian developments, boundary
disputes, land grants. growth of popu-
lation, rise Of industries. railways,
wealth distribution at critical periods,
foreign trade and military campaigns.
The atlas also shows topography. cli-
mate, soils, vegetation and mineral
wealth. The author is DR.. c. o. Paul
lin of the Carnegie Institution and the
editor DR.. J. K. Wright Of the Geo.
graphical Society.
THE atlas" said DR.. Isaiah Bow
man, director Of the American Geo.
graphical Society, "is one Of the most
comprehensive publications Of its kind
that has ever been produced for a sin
gle nation.
Plan Originated 30 Years Ago.
For many years to come it will con-
stitute fundamental work Of reference
not only for writer's, editors, teachers
and students, but for men of large af-
fairs. leaders in public life and Euro
peans who would obtain . In graphic
form authentic information on the de-
velopment of the political and social
structure of the United States"
The first plan for this work was
originated nearly 80 years ago by DR..
J. F. Jameson, for years editor of the
American Historical Review. Collabo-
rators in the atlas included the late
Prof. F. ]. Turner, historian Of the
American frontier; Profs Max Fer
rand. M. w. Jernegan, J. A. Robertson,
r. H. Whitbeck and the late r. Dec.

and economic factors.

URGES COOPERATION
OF LOCAL CITIZENS
IN FIRE PREVENTION
Mayor lenhart Issues ProcIa-
nation; Fire Chief Lists
Common Causes

A plea to the citizens of Bismarck
to cooperate in the prevention of
fires was made Wednesday by Mayor
A F. Lenhart in a proclamation is :
sued in connection with Fire Proven.
ton Week, which is being observed
Throughout the nation.
In his proclamation. the mayor
says. THE week from Oct 8 to Oct
Is is being observed this year in the
United States and Canada as a time
for special endeavor relative to the
prevention of fire. I ask this city's co.
operation in an effort for greater
safety from fire. which causes so vast
a loss both OF human life and prop
erty.
"A renewed spirit OF carefulness
cultivated by every citizen and con-
tinued Throughout the year will prove
the soundest measure in reducing the
danger from fire. Eliminating fire
hazards wherever possible will be an
act not only Of humane Importance
but of incalculable economic signifi-
cance."
Majority Are Preventable
The great majority of fires in Bis.
marck during the winter months are
the result Of failure on the part Of
residents to properly regulate and
clean heating apparatus, Harry A
Thompson, chief of the fire depart
ment said in commenting on prevent
able fires.
Hundreds of dollars Of taxpayers
money is wasted annually as a result
of the necessity Of answering calls TO
extinguish fires in chimneys and
heating pipes. Such fires are easily
preventable by keeping chimneys and
heating apparatus free from coatings
of SCOT. Other causes common to fires
in this city may be eliminated by ex-
ercising a little common sense,
Thompson said. In this category
Thompson listed fire caused from:
heated pipes. hot ashes placed too
close to partitions, and fires caused
by rubbish which has been allowed to
accumulate in Easements
Observe Anniversary
Fire prevention week is being OBJ
served throughout the country on the
anniversary of the great Chicago fire
in 1871. Started when Mrs O'Leary's
famous COW kicked over lantern in |
a barn, the conflagraticn swept from
building to building until most OF the

per cent Of first-class rates on these

cent have been voluntarily offered by
the railroads. This action, the rail-
road board asserts, is q fragrant
