THE UITAI-KPSII CO, HUVMTlMa, Ot 121 Commercial Street. s ROOSEVELT'S CABIN Occupied by Him Whn Cowboy in the Wilds of Dakota. EXHIBITED AT PORTLAND FAIR Dakota Will Have One of the Finest Exhibits at the Lewis and Clark Fair, But It Is Expected That Roose velt's Cabin Will Be the Attraction. The log cabin In which President Roosevelt lived for three years while he was a rancher has been placed In the agricultural building at the Lewis and Clark exposition as a part of the state of North Dakota's exhibit The cabin was taken apart and the pieces numbered, so that It could be put to gether again exactly as It was when the president lived In It as a cowboy. It stands near the south wall of the agricultural building. It was In 1833 that Mr. Roosevelt went to North Dakota and purchased the Maltese Cross ranch, a place on the Little Missouri river eight miles south of the town of MeJora. On tak ing possession Mr. Roosevelt changed. the name to Chimney Butte, on ac count of a chimney-shaped butte a short distance away. The rough cabin which he bought with the ranch was the future president's only home for nearly three years, and In It he lived the life of the cowboy. In the cabin there will be exhibited also a number of Interestlnf memen tos of the president's life at the period. An old straw hat, which Mr. Roose velt wore when he went to the ranch, but which was discarded shortly after ward as unsuitable to the kind of life he must lead, was found In an old sack In a corner of the cabin, and will be shown to visitors at the western world's fair. Other relics Include the president's old gun. Ws "chaps" boot and the war bag In which he stored these" articles when he gave up his cowboy llf'!. While th? Roosevelt cabin will prob ably prove the most popular feature of Its participation. North Dakota will have a most interesting display at the fair. The citizens of that state are proud of its resources, and when the legislature refused to appropriate money for representation at the Lewis and Clark exposition, they raised the required money , by private subscrlp tlon, under a plan proposed by Gov ernor E. T. Sarles. North Dakota being an agricultural state has placed Its entire exhibit In the big agricultural building at the exposition, where wall space 38 feet wide by SO long Is occupied. In this space an exhibit of grains and grasses and other farm products has been In stalled, wir'a the view of showing to the world the greatness of the state aa a farming country. Commissioner W. X. Steel of Bismarck Is In Portland, superintending the Installation of the exhibits, which are practically com pleted. COUNTY OUT OF DEBT. Polk County Is Now on a Cash Basis and Built Court House. The following taken from the Polk County Observer, shows what a busi ness administration will do for a coun ty: Polk county is out of debt. County Treasurer Beezley has Issued a call for all outstanding warrants,and there will be a small cash balance In the treas ury1 after thesi warrants are paid, Five years ago when Judge Sibley and Commissioner Teal were elected to of fice the county was In debt to the amount of $116,000. Of this sum, $50,- 000 represented the cost of the new court house and $60,000 . was old In debtedness. Before any taxes came Into the treasury the Indebtedness reached $130,000, the highest point In the history of the county. The county court at once set about to pay this indebtedness and at the end of their four years' term had reduced the amount to $20,000. During these four years the Interests of the county were not neglected and more permanent Improvements were made than ever before. The court carried on the busi ness of the county as usual and In ad dition, improved the roads, built bridges, and overlooked no Important public need." ' County indebtedness Is often Incur red and Increased by the purchasing of many unnecessary supplies, and there is not a county In the state but by a judicious and economical admlnlstra tion, can wipe out Its indebtedness in short time. The same rule applies to the management of city affairs. COUNTY COURT. Several Contracts Awarded for Improv ing County Roads. An adjourned session of the county ?ourt was held yeRterday, all the mem ers being present The following proceedings were had: Bids for Improving county road No. 95 from Olney to Youngs river falls, was opened as follows; Fred Fnrkenlenml IT cents per foot; P.

Cole for build ing road through hts land; that If the lu mages were paid they would have to come out of the funds of that road dis trict. ' In the matter of the petition of C. H. Page for refunding $61 taxes claimed to hav been paid. It was unanimously denied. , . Report nf the viewers petitioned for by John R. Wherry and others at Elsie was read a second time and laid over to the regular term.

The roal master waa Instructed to repair road district No. T7 In the vicin ity of the Hustler place and remove the slide. Court adjourned sine die.
