Ave. Scandinavians asssembled in large numbers, at Stone's Music Hall, Thurs day night, in honor of the memory of Gustavtts Adolphus who was king of Sweden in the sixteenth century and to whom historians refer as a prince and champion of Protestantism. The an niversary of his death, which occurred Nov. is observed as a national event in the fatherland and the promo ters of the observance, by patriots in Fargo, had principally in mind that it would serve as an occasion for the mass ing of Scandinavians together socially and this would add one more event to the cycle Scandinavian anniversaries during the year. A well arranged and appropriate programme interested the large number present and it consisted almost wholly of national music and Scandinavian folk songs. At the con clusion of tl* musical programme re freshments were served and that delecta tion afforded opportunity for young and old alike, to visit and talk over times and things. The celebration was an in novation among Scandia folk in Fargo and so successful was it in every way there is but little doubt but that it will be an annual event hereafter.

'f'•"i-SV^'i" HANSBR0UQH ON IRRIQATI0N. The North Dakota Senator's Poaitiea an the Irrigation Questlsa, the April number of Opportunity, Senator Hansbrotigh had the following article, which is doubly interesting in view of recent agitation: Irrigation will play a great part in settling the west, and will bring much of its waste lands and all of its waste water into use. Under the national- irrigation law, enacted just a year ago, I believe that fully acres, or about 60,000,000 cent of 10 per the present public domain area, will be reclaimed but it will require at least forty years' time in which to do it. 1 his means homes for about 2,000,- people on the farms, and half as many jnprt in the cities, villages and hamlets. During the same time private enterprise will reclaim 40,000,000 acres, which wbukl afford homes and employ ment fpr ai additional ple 2,000,000 or 100,000,000 of peo acres of reclamation of population in something less than half a century. It is^ difficult, to estimate the value of this*new rproperty, with its per sonalty, but it cannot be an exaggera tion to say that it would amount to at least $5,ooojboo,ooo. The work thus far under the'hew law has been wholly of a preliminary nature. It is expected that the secretary of the interior will soon announce the location and char acter of the first enterprise to be enter ed upon. This announcement will be in the nature of a proclamation withdraw ing from entry the lands to be irrigated, that is, withdrawing them from entry under any of the land laws except the irrigatiort act. Under this act the entry man must have all the qualifications of a homesteader, and among other things must contract to pay, in not less than ten installments, his pro rata share of the cost of the works by which he is to be supplied with water. He must also live upon and cultivate the land, The law is thoroughly safeguarded so as to prevent speculation. In framing their constitutions nearly all the western states inserted the most stringent provisions as respects the control of streams, and nobody expects the secretary of the interior to have an easy time of it adjusting disputes that must necessarily arise. Undoubtedly the federal supreme court must pass upon many of the controversies before orderly progress is assured. No doubt if some of the states were to make their organic laws they would be much more liberal. Indeed, there is reason to be lieve that several of the states, in order to get the full benefit of national irri gation^ Will amend their constitutions, so as to give the federal government the right, -without question, to reclaim its public lands with the normal waters as welT as the flood waters of streams now assumed to be wholly within the control of thi state. Federal authority must be unquestioned and unmolested if it is to do the work in a manner to bring the most good to the state itself. Un der the law all irrigation works are in time^ to be turned over to the people. Thus Hvift wealth be added to the state, and the newly created property pass eventually under the complete control of the state. Editor's Note—Since the above was written, Secretary Hitchcock of the in terior department has granted author ity for the acquisition of necessary prop'efty, rights of ways, etc., prior to the construction of irrigation works in five localities. These projects are: Wyoming—Sweetwater dam. Montana—Milk River. Colorado—Gunnison tunnel. N evada—T ruckee. Arizona—Salt River reservoir. These projects are estimated to cost $7,000,000 arid will provide for the irri gation of about 600,000 1902. required for the Bruce Crusoe building, corner of Roberts Street and First Avenue North. Plans can be seen and information given at the office of M. E. Beebe, architect, 618 North. O ZI B^R IS RY GO OP S iH PERCENT DISCOUNT 6, 1903, AMUSEMENTS, Nov. 6.—The Two Sisters.

Ml* Bemidji Pioneer publishes this news of the troubles of an Indian who is credited to this state: Charles Burnell, the Indian who is serving thirty days in the county jail for being drunk is something of a char acter. Burnell is a North Dakota In dian and has been traveling with a quack doctor and medicine show as a sort of prodigy. In the effete and aris tocratic east he was much honored for his long hair and the interesting stories the doctors told about him, but the people of northern Minnesota were not so appreciative. A short time ago some white men found him in an easy condition and singed his hair nearly to the scalp. He was rendered useless for all purposes to the medicine show and was forthwith discharged. He now states that as soon as it can be brought about he will bring an action for 100 acres of arid land. In addition thereto, the Gray Bull reservoir project is to be taken up im mediately. The construction remains subject to the feasibility of obtaining the necessary rights and the adjustment of private claims in such a manner as to comply with the act approved June 1 17, BIDS F,OR EXCAVATING.

The Cleveland, O., Leader gives an interesting account of the closing re publican meeting in that city before election. The speakers were Col. W. C. Plummer, Governor Herrick and Senator Hanna the latter entered the hall late, and The Leader says: Colonel Herrick beamed on the aud ience. Finally the band stopped, pos sibly from lack of breath, and Colonel Plummer concluded his speech. "The man before you," said the vet eran speaker, pointing to Senator Han na, "has done more in building up the business of the country in his lifetime than generations of Tom Johnsons ever will. I am an old man, over 70 years of age. I have seen the birth of the republican party. It stood for free speech and free men at the beginning, and it stands for that now, and you owe it to the country to elect Col. M. T. Herrick tomorrow and send Marcus A. Hanna back to the senate." v- FROM HARVEY SMITH. Sibley Butte, N.

I read The Forum carefully and it is so full of prosperity items, that I really thought you did not need any money like other poor mortals. However, let us be thankful together. I am thank ful that no extra session of the legis lature will be held in fritter away a lot of money in expenses, and I am also thankful that we did get a little bit of a crop the past season. Now, keep The Forum coming my way and if I forget you too long again, just fling your hook at the foot of the line as usual. I am, Very truly, Harvey Smith. P.

A recent ruling of the postoflSce department requires each ryral mail carrier in the United States to take a careful census of his route and copy the names in a book provided for that purpose. Slips are prepared for the carriers and these will be left with the families to be filled out, each slip to contain the names of all parties receiving mail at the house, even to the servants. In this manner the name of every person along the route will be before the postmaster and he will have no trouble forwarding mail. Married ladies will be designated by their own names instead of those of their hus bands. For State News Read The Forum.
