Dillon of South Dakota has drawn up a bill that allows final proof to : be made at any time after the expiration of one year from date of entry. To take advantage of the mew law, however, a man must seed an area equal to one-eighth of his land for harvest in 1918, except in entries under the so-called stock-raising homestead law where only one-sixteemth will be required. Mr. Dillon believes that the homesteaders, if they are pos- . sessed of titles to their lands, will be able to borrow money on them to offset their losses of the season of 1917, CIl GAR.ETTES aflMPORTEDandDOMESTIC tobaccos —Blended AMERICAN MARKET FOR CHINESE TIN According to consular reports, we bought more. than two miilion dol- lars worth of tin in China during the first half of 1917. During the whole year the purchases may reach five million dollars. The war is doing much to develop the tin industry of China and it.1s the hope of that coun- try that after the war the trade now built up will be retained. Abundant supplies of raw material and cheap labor, together with the reduced Am- erican tariff, give strength to the expectation that this will be done. ; " VIOLATED ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT The explanations and apologies from Berlin for Count Luxburg's mig: use of the Swedish diplomatic privilege in the Argentine go to show; that:| the only crime which Luxburg has committed in the eyes of his superiors s that of getting found out. He violated the eleventh commandment, which had been held valid in all ages, from the days of the Spartan lad who held the stolen fox beneath his mantle until the animal had clawed the lad’s vitals out, down to the most recently exposed of German diplomats. According to the number of convictions against liquor violators at Bemidji, the authorities must be putting the boots on the bootleggers.— Baudette Region. Not ON the bootleggers but, TO to the hootleggers. Dispatches state that China is still having trouble with her cabinet. We know a woman in North Bemidji who is also having trouble,with her china cabinet. Something the matter with that “open door” business we think it is. We know a man in Bemidji who goes nlofig the streets whistling airs. And we also know another who puts ‘em on.
