Bismarck has received an ap
propriation of $30,000 for a federal
building.
Congress is now making plans
to raise the battleship Maine, the
wreck of which still remains in
the Havana harbor.
The state superintendent has

craze on in California. The heavy
rainfall has exposed nuggets which
are valued at $125.00 and now
everyone is after a mine in that
vicinity.
United Sates Senator M. N.
Johnson, his secretary Skuli
Skulison, Representative elect L.
B. Hanna and his secretary Wesley
Morrish are now all at Washington
ready for the inauguration.
It is believed that the irrigation
project will be underway in the
early spring. Those living in
this vicinity are anxiously looking
forward to the time and will do all
in their power to make it a suc
cess.
The vital statistics of
North Dakota show there was
increase of 3,811 during the year
1908, 6,321 children were born

rate ot 511 per month.
William Jennings Bryan says
that in all probability the house
of representatives will be demo
cratic in 1910. He also thinks

satisfy the expectations of both
elements of the Republican party.
Some time ago the citizens of
Washburn held a meeting and
sent a petition down to Bismarck
to the members of the legislature
from this county asking them to
introduce a bill establishing a
normal in Washhurn, now they
are wondering what became of the
petition.
Big preparations are being
made for. the Taft inaugural at
Washington. It is said there will
be more than 31,000 men in the
parade on next Thursday. A great
many from all over the United
States will be there to attend the
celebration on that day.
