Chicago Inter Qcean. Undoubtedly the part of this pros- perous nation, which is growing and prospering most swiftly today, is the southwest—the region whose central field is Oklahoma, Indian Territory and 1 north Texas. The story of Oklahoma's transfor- mation from an empty cattle range into a land of blossoming farms and thriv- ing towns was enacted in such a start- ling manner that it forced public atten- I tion. The beginning of the develop- ment—for only a beginning has been made, even in Oklahoma—of other parts of central southwest was made in a less sensational manner, and has not re- ceived the public notice that it de- serves. Thus it was with surprise that the ©ation at large learned, when the "statehood" agitation became strong a few years ago, that there were really more than twice as many white people as Indians in the Indian Territory, and that these, and the Indians with them, •were doing all the things in the way of industries, schools and churches that are done by thriving communities inr Illinois Or Iowa or Minnesota. f It was with further surprise that f ieople who in youth had been accus- omed to think of Texas as a land largely inaccessible save on horseback or by wagon, learned this year that Texas was leading all the states of the union in railway mileage, and had pushed Illinois from the primacy held for forty years. These two facts illustrate how the southwest is growing, and has been f lowing, almost unseen and unheard by he nation at large, and especially un- noticed by the general public in the xegion of the Great Lakes. THE OPULENT HEN DEVICE TO PREVENT WRECK Chicken Crop Outranks Gold Mines, Sugar Factories and Grain Fields. The last census of poultry of the United States showed that the total number of chickens was 233,598,085: turkeys, 6,599,367; geese, 5,676,863 and ducks, 4,807,357. Eighty-eight and -one- eighth per cent of the farms of this country had poultry as an asset. At least 250,000,000 chickens, to say noth- ing of other kinds of poultry, are con- sumed each year. According to the government author- ities "egg and poultry earnings" for one recent years amounted to $280,000,- 000. The total value of the gold, sil- ver, wool and sheep produced in Ameri- ca during the year in question was $272,434,315.

Norwood, a negro, formerly a shoemaker at 1123 Nineteenth street, claims to have invented a railway sig- nal automatic register, which will make railroad travel absolutely safe. So simple is the device and so com- pletely will it keep train officials in touch with the movements of each one sent out that head-end or rear-end or any other kind of collisions will be al- most an impossibility. Washouts or any damage to trackage will be imme- diately registered and the exact spot where the trouble lies. Norwood now lives in Chicago and left Denver about a year or less ago. While here he found plenty of work at his trade of shoemakei, and left an ex- cellent recoid for character. He is a graduate of Tuskegee insti- tute and is about 26 years of age. He was a member of the Ninth United States cavalry regiment during the Spanish-American war. He has been working on his invention for five years, and in an interview explains its work- ing mechanism in this way: "I havo completed a working model of this improvement in railroad sig- nals. It indicates the actual move- ment of all train upon any line and the direction in which each moves and will also indicate the movement of trains on which it is installed. It will also record the time of all stops. The officials of roads may have these regis- ters in their private offices and know where all trains are and where they were the day before or any time past. "These registers are quite simple in construction, consisting of electric mag- nets, spring motor, a small timepiece with revolving face and other suitable mechanism so arranged as to accomplish the desired results. "Small metallic insulated conductors are laid along the tracks to connect the main rails thru which the current passes that is sent out from a battery carried by each tram. '' These registers work by the closing and opening of a circuit caused by a transmitter forming a short contact with projective points of an auxiliary conductor at some known equal frac- tional part of a mile. LAW ENFORCEMENT Grouped around a bed of glowing logs, a number of cottagers living near the 'Excelsior commons made merry at a cornroast last evening. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Puckett were the promoters of the jolly event, and those who partici- pated were: Messrs. and Mmes. Will Freeman, W» E. Albee, James Bladon, Thomas Eatcliff, Boy Wagner, Albert Hausman, Miss Ross, Miss Hookey and Miss Creeser. Each man had his du- ties assigned to him and there was exciting competition over producing the nicest corncob, popped just right and burned to a tempting brown and but- tered and salted to taste. Mrs. Sampson A. Keed of Long View cottage entertained the Hawthorn club yesterday at her summer home at the lake. Mrs. Eeed is the president of the club and the event was the first gathering of the members this fall. Euchre was played and at noon a de- licious luncheon was served. Contribu- tions from the picnic baskets of each guest furnished a very sumptuous meal, with baked beans and brown bread from the hostess's kitchen as an addi- tional course. The prizes at cards were won by Mmes. Wilson, Rollins, McEl- roy, Sprague, Fish and Friedlander. The rooms were decorated with flowers of the season. Pink geraniums were in the parlor and the dining room had red geraniums and daisies. The guests of the club who came out for the day- were: Mmes. J.- L. McElroy, C. S. Gold, John McNaught, Fred Rollins, H. L. Steinhauser, George Fish, J. J. Secomb, A. W. Lauderdale, Ed Griev- ish, Friedlander, B. Lockwood, Burt Sarce, Pauline Poehler, Louis Koch, W. W. Wilson, Sprague, Xavier and Lap- man. Mrs. Reed and Mrs. McElroy were re-elected president and secreta- ry. Owing to the cool weather the steamer party on the Acte had to be postponed. The guests returned to town at 5 o'clock. Mrs. Will Freeman and Miss Abbie Reed assisted the hos- tess and punched the scores. 615, 617,619, 621,623,625, 627 and 629 Hicollet Ave. There are Things Bre wing You'll Know Silks NOVELTY SILKS and plain taffetas in a wide range of col- orings and black; very finest, all silk, the taffetas worth 75c and 85c yard, and the • • ffe novelties worth $1 and "lMf* $1.25 yd, choice WWU $1.40; yel- 12.85, green, Globes, per homegrown '«M M". 1 tut 5-'' n&'kjJjSfi w!f.R WW* Official quotations of the Minneapolis Produce Exchange, corrected up to 12 m., Wednesday, Sept. 18.

South Bend Tribune. For many years it has been* a con- tention that the enforcement of law produces a damaging effect upon the commercial side of a community where such enforcement is effective., * * * The evidence obtained from^Governor Polk's crusade in Missouri goes a long way in proyin'g that these opinions are wrong. Since he began his exposure of corruption immigration to Missouri has increased 25 per cent more than in any three and a half years in the state's history; land has increased 33 per cent more in' price than in any similar per- iod; the state's revenues have grown so that a reduction in the tax rate can be wisely made; public business thruout the state has been improved; opportuni- ties for the people have been enhanced and generally beneficial results have followed. So much for the state. Governor Folk's campaign against crime and law violators in St. Louis alone shows that in only four months there has been a decrease of 8 per cent in the arrests for drunkenness; a decrease of 60 per cent in arrests for murderous assaults; a decrease of 13 per cent in arrests for peace disturbance and a decrease of 56 per cent in Sunday drunkenness. All this means something. It is a verj' strong indication that the argu- ments for the wide-open town are not built on a strong foundation, and that those back of such arguments assume their position either thru ignorance or ulterior motives. If the enforcement of law has such a remarkaj^ly beneficial effect in Missouri, and in^St. Louis in particular, why is it not a good thing for all states and all cities? There is a problem for the business man' to con- sider purely from a business standpoint. The evidence is before him and it can not be doubted. He is conducting his business to make monev. If law en- forcement will make him more money, why not insist on it? This is not the highest view, perhaps, but it is one view, the one which may move the greatest number.

D., Sept. 13.—Not since the famous lottery fight of the first legislative session has the state of North Dakota been so stirred up over a movement with a political bearing as over the plans for the construction of tho new capitol building at Bismarck. The capitol bill passed at the last ses- sion authorized the appointment of a commission, and the construction by it of a building, the cost of which should not exceed the sum which could be real- ized from the sale of the capitol lands remaining to the state, the total of these being about 60,000 acres. The commission, consisting of Will- iam Budge, D. J. Laxdal and Andrew Sandager, was aopointed, and an ad- vertisement was' published inviting bids. Then the protests began to eome in\ It was found that the commis- sion was asking for the submission of plans and specifications for a new building, which plans are to be accom- panied by a bid for the construction of the building in accordance therewith, thus makinfg the architect his own con- tractor. Thirty days were allowed in the ad- vertisement for the preparation of ten- ders, and this was objected to as too short a time for the' preparation of plans for such an important work, and it was also pointed out that by reason of the peculiarity of requiring archi- tects to submit bids on construction' competitive bids would be out of the question. The Fargo Builders' Exchange took tho matter up, passed resolutions of protest, and employed Spalding & Stambaugh to represent them and take legal steps to prevent a contract from being awarded under this call. The Grand Forks builders took like action at a meeting Monday night, and it is understood that a writ of injunction is to be asked for restraining the com- mission from proceeding father under this call. The time set for the opening of bids is the 19th, hence rapid action must be taken 1 , and important developments are expected within a day or two. Bomanson's Defense. vised Mr. McGowan, who told him to prepare the body in the best way possi- ble for shipment to Northwood. This was done by means of the cavity system of embalming. Accused Saloonkeepers. Suit has been commenced in district court of Polk county by Ole Salemon- son, a farmer, against John Kittleson and Osmund Sorenson, owners of a saloon in East Grand Forks, to recov- er $241 from each of the defendants m general damages and $500 as special damages. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants unlawfully obtained Posses- sion of the chattels valued at $241. The plaintiff further claims that the defendants conspired together to cheat and defraud him and with that end in view, induced him to drink intoxicating liquors to excess. ^ IOWA AND NEBRASKA DISTRICTS Appointments for Swedish Conference of Methodist Church.

An answer has been filed in the dis- trict court case of Charles A. McGowan against Benjamin Romanson. The de- fendant is an undertaker living at Souris, and the plaintiff lives at West- hope. The latter part of June the wife of Mr. McGowan died and Undertaker Romanson prepared the body for buriaL The husband claimed that the work of embalming was so carelessly done that relatives of his wife were not able to view her remains, "and that owing to the condition of the body an orderly funeral could not be held. He brought an action in court to recover something over $5,000. Mr. Romanson, in/his answer, asserted that he found the /arteries in such a crumbling condition that he was unable to inject the fluid into them. He ad* DRUGGISTS WIN PERMITS Long, Hard Pight Affecting Park River Is at End. GRAFTON, N. D.—George Shepherd. Judge of the county court of Walsh county, has made his decision in tho Park River case for the is- suance of permits, granting to the three drug- gists of that town permits to sell llquois for medicinal, scientific or mechanical purposes. Since the Shields law went in force none of the druggists of Park River had obtained a permit, but soon aftei July 1 last, the pro- prietors of the three stores began circulating petitions and stirred up much opposition for the local W. C. T. U. The law requires the petition for a permit to be signed by the ap- plicant and 80 per cent of the freeholders, hav- ing the qualifications of electors of the ward, and 50 per cent of the reputable women over 21 years of age, who are residents of tho ward. 4 I The hearing opened on Aug. 19 and as the statute is not very clear as to i the qualifications of the women, this caused much work and mis- understanding, some contending that a woman i must have the same qualifications as a woman i voting for county superintendent of schools, | others that if a woman has the necessary quail- i flcations, she need cot be a citizen of this county, and still others holding that it was suf- ficient if a woman with the qualifications of { a voter, was making her home In the partlcu- ' lar ward at the time the druggist petition was circulated. The most accepted view was that a woman must have the qualifications necessary for voting for superintendent of schools. Those opposing the Issuance of the permits were mostly women, their object being to dis- qualify a sufficient number of the signers of the petitions. Dr. Bert Bell, recently of this city, and Miss Jessie Robertson of Mlnto, were married at Grand Forks.

THE GROWING SOUTHWEST

Development of Oklahoma and Neigh­bor ing Begions.

Chicago I n t e r Qcean. Undoubtedly the par t of this pros­

perous na t ion , which is growing and prosper ing most swiftly today, is the southwest—the region whose central field is Oklahoma, Ind ian Terr i tory and

1 no r th Texas. The story of Oklahoma 's transfor­

mat ion from an empty ca t t le range into a land of blossoming farms and thr iv­i n g towns was enacted in such a s tar t ­l ing manner t h a t it forced public a t ten-

I tion. The beginning of t h e develop­ment—for only a beginning has been made , even in Oklahoma—of other p a r t s of central southwest was made in a less sensational manner , and has not re­ceived the public notice t h a t i t de­serves.

Thus i t was w i t h surprise t h a t t he ©ation a t large learned, when the " s t a t e h o o d " agi ta t ion became s t rong a few years ago, t h a t the re were really more t han twice as many whi te people as Ind ians in the Ind ian Terr i tory, and t h a t these, and the Ind ians wi th them, •were doing all the th ings in the way of industr ies , schools and churches t h a t a re done by th r iv ing communities inr I l l inois Or Iowa or Minnesota. f

I t was wi th fur ther surprise t h a t

f ieople who in youth had been accus-omed to t h ink of Texas as a land

la rge ly inaccessible save on horseback or b y wagon, learned th is year t h a t Texas was leading all the s ta tes of the union in ra i lway mileage, and had pushed Il l inois from the pr imacy held for fo r ty years .

These two fac ts i l lus t ra te how the southwest is growing, and has been

f l owing , almost unseen and unheard by he na t ion a t large, and especially un­

not iced by the general public in the xegion of t he Great Lakes .

GENERAL PRODUCE

Rai l road Travel May Become Absolute­ly Safe by a Negro ' s Invention.

Den'ver Times. John P . Norwood, a negro, formerly

a shoemaker a t 1123 Nine teenth street , claims to have invented a rai lway sig­nal automatic register , which will make railroad t ravel absolutely safe.

So simple is t h e device and so com­pletely will i t keep t ra in officials in touch wi th the movements of each one sent out t h a t head-end or rear-end or any other k ind of collisions will be al­most an impossibility. Washouts or any damage to t rackage will be imme­diately registered and the exact spot where the trouble lies.

Norwood now lives in Chicago and left Denver about a year or less ago. While here he found plenty of work a t his t rade of shoemakei, and left an ex­cellent recoid for character.

He is a gradua te of Tuskegee insti­t u t e and is about 26 years of age. H e was a member of the Nin th Uni ted Sta tes cavalry regiment during the Spanish-American war . H e has been working on his invention for five years , and in an interview explains i ts work­ing mechanism in this w a y :

" I havo completed a working model of th is improvement in rai l road sig­nals. I t indicates the actual move­ment of all t ra in upon any line and the direction in which each moves and will also indicate the movement of t ra ins on which i t is installed. I t will also record the t ime of all stops. The officials of roads may have these regis­ters in their p r iva te offices and know where all t r a ins are and where they were the day before or any t ime past .

" T h e s e registers are quite simple in construction, consisting of electric mag­nets, spring motor, a small timepiece wi th revolving face and other suitable mechanism so ar ranged as to accomplish the desired results.

" S m a l l metallic insulated conductors are laid along the t racks to connect the main rails thru which the current passes t h a t is sent out from a ba t t e ry carried b y each t r a m .

' ' These registers work by the closing and opening of a circuit caused b y a transmi t t e r forming a short contact wi th projective points of an auxi l iary conductor a t some known equal frac­t ional par t of a mile.

Grouped around a bed of glowing logs, a number of cottagers l iv ing near the 'Excelsior commons made merry a t a cornroast last evening.

Mrs. Eeed is t he president of the club and the event was the first ga ther ing of t he members th i s fall . Euchre was played and a t noon a de­licious luncheon was served.

The prizes a t cards were won by Mmes. Wilson, Rollins, McEl-roy, Sprague, Fish and Fr iedlander . The rooms were decorated wi th flowers of the season. P i n k geraniums were in the parlor and the dining room had red geraniums and daisies. The guests of the club who came out for t he day-were : Mmes. J.- L . McElroy, C. S.

The guests re turned to town a t 5 o'clock. Mrs . Wil l F reeman and Miss Abbie Reed assisted the hos­tess and punched the scores.

Results in St. Louis Prove I t Conduces to Good Order and Prosper i ty .

South Bend Tribune. F o r many years i t has been* a con­

tent ion t h a t the enforcement of law produces a damaging effect upon the commercial side of a community where such enforcement is effective., * * * The evidence obtained from^Governor P o l k ' s crusade in Missouri goes a long way in proyin'g t h a t these opinions are wrong. Since he began his exposure of corruption immigrat ion to Missouri has increased 25 per cent more t han in any three and a half years in the s t a t e ' s h is tory; land has increased 33 per cent more in' price than in any similar per­iod; the s t a t e ' s revenues have grown so t h a t a reduction in the t ax ra te can be wisely made; public business thruout the s ta te has been improved; opportuni­t ies for the people have been enhanced and generally beneficial results have followed.

So much for the s ta te . Governor F o l k ' s campaign against crime and law violators in St. Louis alone shows t h a t in only four months the re has been a decrease of 8 per cent in the ar res ts for drunkenness; a decrease of 60 per cent in ar res ts for murderous assaul ts ; a decrease of 13 per cent in arrests for peace disturbance and a decrease of 56 per cent in Sunday drunkenness.

All th is means something. I t is a ver j ' s t rong indication t h a t the argu­ments for the wide-open town are not bui l t on a strong foundation, and t h a t those back of such arguments assume the i r posit ion either t h ru ignorance or ul ter ior motives. I f the enforcement of law has such a remarkaj^ly beneficial effect in Missouri, and in^St . Louis in par t icular , why is i t not a good th ing for all s ta tes and all cities? There is a problem for the business man' to con­sider purely from a business standpoint . The evidence is before him and i t can not be doubted. He is conducting his business to make monev. I f law en­forcement will make him more money, why not insist on i t ? This is not the highest view, perhaps, b u t i t is one view, the one which may move the greatest number.

Steal Two Bunches of Horses—In Jail at Pierre.

PIERRE, S D —Deputy Sheriff Moore of Stan­ley county has -"placed In jail In this city William Two Crow and George Cook, Indians arrested on a charge of horse rustling. The In­dians stole a bunch of Indian horses on Cherry creek, and started down the Cheyenne river with them. Near Collamer they saw a bunch of horses in the pasture of H. L. Brakke and did a horse trading stunt, with themselves as sole judges of what should be traded, leaving Brekke a sorry looking bunch of ponies and taking his* horses.

The Pierre Indian Industrial school has started the term with an attendance of 150 pupils. This is the limit of the school, but the de­mands for admission are far beyond that figure, and the school is always crowded. As soon as the new bulldine is completed the limit will be 200' pupils The school Is sending agricultural exhibits to the btate fair and the Mitchell corn palace With the new farm the question of Ir­rigation on the sand bottoms of the Missouri can be easily tested

The supieme court today admitted Milton Good­lier of this city on examination.

Special to The Journal. Grand Forks , N . D., Sept. 13.—Not

since the famous lot tery fight of the first legislative session has the s ta te of Nor th Dakota been so s t i r red up over a movement wi th a political bear ing as over the plans for the construction of tho new capitol building a t Bismarck.

The capitol bill passed a t t he last ses­sion authorized the appointment of a commission, and the construction b y i t of a building, the cost of which should not exceed the sum which could be real­ized from the sale of the capitol lands remaining to the s ta te , t he to ta l of these being about 60,000 acres.

The commission, consisting of Will­iam Budge, D. J . Laxdal and Andrew Sandager, was aopointed, and an ad­vert isement was ' published inv i t ing bids . Then the protests began to eome in\ I t was found t h a t the commis­sion was asking for the submission of plans and specifications for a new building, which plans are to be accom­panied by a bid for t he construction of the bui lding in accordance therewith , thus makinfg the archi tect his own con­tractor .

Th i r ty days were allowed in t h e ad­vert isement for t he preparat ion of ten­ders, and th is was objected to as too short a t ime for the ' prepara t ion of plans for such an impor tan t work, and it was also pointed out t h a t b y reason of the pecul iar i ty of requir ing archi­tec ts to submit bids on construction' competi t ive bids would be out of t he question.

The Fargo Bu i lde r s ' Exchange took tho mat t e r up, passed resolutions of protest , and employed Spalding & Stambaugh to represent them and t a k e legal steps to prevent a contract from being awarded under th is call. The Grand Forks builders took like action a t a meet ing Monday night , and i t is understood t h a t a wr i t of injunction is to be asked for res t ra in ing the com­mission from proceeding f a t h e r under th is call.

The t ime set for t he opening of b ids is the 19th, hence rapid action must be taken1, and impor tant developments are expected wi th in a day or two.

DRUGGISTS W I N PERMITS

Long, Hard Pight Affecting Park River I s at End.

GRAFTON, N. D.—George Shepherd. Judge of the county court of Walsh county, has made his decision in tho Park River case for the is­suance of permits, granting to the three drug­gists of that town permits to sell llquois for medicinal, scientific or mechanical purposes.

Since the Shields law went in force none of the druggists of Park River had obtained a permit, but soon aftei July 1 last, the pro­prietors of the three stores began circulating petitions and stirred up much opposition for the local W. C. T. U. The law requires the petition for a permit to be signed by the ap­plicant and 80 per cent of the freeholders, hav­ing the qualifications of electors of the ward, and 50 per cent of the reputable women over 21 years of age, who are residents of tho ward. 4 I

The hearing opened on Aug. 19 and as the statute is not very clear as to i the qualifications of the women, this caused much work and mis­understanding, some contending that a woman i must have the same qualifications as a woman i voting for county superintendent of schools, | others that if a woman has the necessary quail- i flcations, she need cot be a citizen of this county, and still others holding that it was suf­ficient if a woman with the qualifications of { a voter, was making her home In the partlcu- ' lar ward at the time the druggist petition was circulated. The most accepted view was that a woman must have the qualifications necessary for voting for superintendent of schools.

Those opposing the Issuance of the permits were mostly women, their object being to dis­qualify a sufficient number of the signers of the petitions.

Dr. Bert Bell, recently of this city, and Miss Jessie Robertson of Mlnto, were married a t Grand Forks.
