One of them was Joseph Kelly, who owned 900 acres of land, and who hauled his wheat fifteen miles to Devil's Lake. Mr. Kelly said: "If the Great Northern won't build, we will build." And the farmers built a railroad twenty-five miles long. They asked every farmer who hauled grain to Devil's Lake to subscribe. Some subscribed $25, others 500.

They raised $50,000. They sent a farmer to Duluth to buy ties and another to St. Paul to buy old rails. A land promoter was building a small branch line out of Devil's Lake to the south, and they got him to survey the road. They hired section-hands to lay the track.

But they needed more Thev boueht land along: the line and laid out three towns, sold the lots, and used the money to buy an old engine, a day coach, and four box-cars from the Great Northern Railway. Then the road was started. It will stop for any farmer at any place. Last vear the road made its expenses; it "hauled 60.000 bushels of wheat. This year, with the railroad at hand, the farmers planted more wheat, and the road, will haul 2,000,000 bushels.

I went to Starkweatner, tne largest town laid out by- the farmers on their road. Two years ago the site was a flax field. I found It a bustling place, with thirty stores and houses, 400 peo-nlo a school-house that cost $10,000. three elevators with a capacity of 250,000 bushels, three banks, a newspaper ana church. At the other two towns.

which a year ago were farm lots, I found grain elevators, school houses and stores. Here Is what "these farmers had done when they built their railroad: Bstab-lished three towns, increased the price of land along the way seventy-five per cent, increased their yield of wheat, built schools, established telephones. They made a whole community richer and Independent. Critic Pardon me for saying so, but in this autumn landscape your colors do not seem to harmonize, Artist They don't?

The annual meeting and election of officers for the ensuing year was postponed one week. There was a goodly number of members present and a few guests. A feature of the evening was the welcoming home from a visit to Scotland of Financial Secretary Jqhn McNullan and from Canada of Aiex. Smille. The President Oeo.

S. Lackie, occupied the chair. The usual opening toasts to "the President of the United States and "the King," were proposed by President Lackie, and were drank standing, each followed by the verse of the American and British National anthems. A. C.

Ballingall was called upon for a song and very appropriately and well sang "Home, Sweet Home." Mr. Lackie called attention to the presence of Mr. McMillan after his return from Scotland, the home of his birth and boyhood, to the land of his adoption and proposed his health, which was heartily responded to with For He a Jolly Good Fellow," etc. In responding Mr. McMillan gave a most interesting talk on what he saw, and the changes twenty years had wrought in the places and scenes of his earlier years.

'He first spoke of his trip' across our own continent; of Omaha, a beautiful and clean little city; of Chicago, a big, uncleanly, hustling, noisy place. He was not pleased with it. Hhe could not sleep at night; there was no cessation from the noises of the streets, even at 2 o'clock In the morning. New York impressed him very much as a great and magnltt-cent city, with its great buildings; he visited the one with the six stories underground and thirty above ground. He did not enjoy the ocean voyage because of seasickness.

Arriving in Glasgow he found it grown to be a great city. As a boy he knew every corner of it, now it would take him years to explore it. Then Paisley was a little town mam- miles out from the city, now it was a suDuro, Dut stiu it was raisiey, for when one got to the line between the two places on the Glasgow street car he had to take a Paisley street car and pay a Paisley fare. The changes In Glasgow were marvelous. He was much interested in her street railways and In her civic improvements.

He spoke especially of the great water system. Everyone in Glasgow had all the water that they -wanted, there was no limit and the rates were nominal. The reservoirs would hold a supply sufficient for the needs of the great city for 100 days without replenishing, but the water was brought to them fresh every day from Loch Katrine. He spoke of man'v interesting things he saw in the chief commercial city of Scotland. Of Edinburgh, the old historic city of Scottish kilngs.

Mr. McMillan thought it one of the most magnificent cities in the world, i In this most Scotchmen agree with him. Robert Louis Stevenson, a native of the city, was almost the only one who could! write a line against Auld Reekie, at last against its climate, and some of the people have hardly forgiven him yet. The speaker visited over again mo many Historic Diaces. the nnstiA r-ni- ton Hill, Hollywood Castle, and gave euieriaining account.

He visited the great bridge across the of Forth. Anjong other places he mentioned In his talk were Rothsay. Glrvln. Greenock Paisley Dunoon, Kirklntulock. Some of these places were of local interest to members as birthplaces, and hits were made in a jlcose way.

Avr and Bums' cottage were mentioned. He thought the cottages not so good as he saw it when a ooy. oecause it now in an unnatural state of preservation. He also saw the rug used by Mary Queen of Scotts just Srior to her execution and he thought it ad grown some since he saw it some twenty years ago. Mr.

McMillan said the Scottish nation was getting to be a nation of tea drinkers. They had given up. to a great extent, being mush eaters; the American people were now the porridge eaters Instead of the Scotch, with our many breakfast ifoods, etc. But he said the Scotch needed new teeth, the reason he did not kpow, unless it was the tea annaing; me young people, as well as the old. all had bad teeth.

tr thnncrh it- would be a good place for enterprising fluinrao aeatisto to go ror Duslness. Golf, he said, was everywhere and was doing much good, nob only in building the peopie up i physically, but In improving barren places the country, as well as taking people out of the cities to be caretakers to these links that were scat tered over tne country. He said th Scottish people were better dressed than the American people, they wore no shoddy. Every Sunday the men would be dressed in good woolen clothes with silk nats: Dut in one mine ther were lack ing. and that was, if they only had some one to clean their shoes.

They did not seem to make progress In that line. He met at the Forth bridge two priests from San Francisco who were delighted with the scenery of Scotland, and agreed that nowhere in the world, after a six months' travel, were they more pleased. They also paid a tribute to the Scotch farmers and said that they were ahead of any other people in farming and in the ap-Dearance of their farms. i Mr. 8mUle la responding to a toaat MAYOR HRRRISOftS SECOND AT THE LATTER' 4 1 Alton "0, please, Mr.

Harrison, tell me and Wisconsin, like the one you gave an account of his trip through the iniuuie Kansas, luwa aiiu uuuu the great corn belt of the country. He had never seen so much corn growing. He agreed with Mr. McMillan as to Chicago. It was a great city, but it was not clean.

He visited Niagara Falls. Toronto and Montreal. He found many improvements made in the Canadian cities during the ten years since he had seen them. Improvements of permanent character. On his way home he visited Detroit and St.

Louis. He spent three days manv interesting exhibits and shown in visiting the World's Fair and told of there. He thought California was well represented at the Fair; that Alameda county had a creditable exhibit, and that Mr. I'earce was aoing gooa worn mere for one county. jyui uifi cue v.
